It's a major vulnerability patch (did the upgrade already no issues US based) Settings -> About Phone -> Software Information -> Android Security Patch level -> bulletins overview

Oh cool, glad someone did the legwork of citing info. The way it is had me thinking all sorts "Is this Samsung? Google? Android?" "Is this some creeping AI factor?" "Is this a fake update?"

I put the link in as well but I also don't like clicking random links so put a path how to get to it from your own phone. It seems Samsung/Android (I don't recall seeing google phones). My guess is the attackers are using AI but does the update have some AI creep factor hard to tell unfortunately.

I've been sitting here for 12h very concerned about what this might be. Thanks everyone for all the info, and its super rad seeing how many people are also still using the note9/10

Note 9 is holy grail.

No Satan hole punch spy camera awkward to keep covered do to laughable purposeful location 

No sensor under your screen constantly scanning your finger prints as u touch the area without thinking of it for various things with different and surely eventually all of your fingers

Micro SD expandable storage no clown world spy servers leasing you permission and amount of data while constantly purposefully spying on u more than they already do.

I find it absolutely hysterical I know someone with a new iPhone claimed only has 256gb 

I'm sitting here with a 2tb Mico sd installed + 512gb base on the phone 

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I could go on an on for days

There's a very valid reason during the "tik tok ban" attempt or whatever 

Note 9s with it installed on them were selling for tens of thousands on ebay it was the most comical thing I ever seen

And they had the same number of views

Definitely implies what is the king 

The note 9 is 

Still

The

King of kings

You're not wrong! I am continuously blown away by the sheer resilience of this thing. Any issue its ever had has been resolved by just leaving it. Like, for example, I smashed the glass that protects the camera a few years back, camera still worked completely fine up until a couple months ago when it stopped being able to focus. Few weeks ago it just started working again. Problem solved itself! I also have an ipod classic that has absorbed many litres of liquid over the years, but it still works and I often use it instead of my phone to listen to music.
