Still stuck on VT2M.C.084

by the way, even if I set my Google Play preferences to “automatically update apps” I have to check manually the app updates and install them manually

Maybe linked issues?

My fingerprint reader stopped working after this update (still enabled in Settings for unlocking the phone). Is there anything I can do?

Edit: another restart of the phone fixed it.

Yes, same for me. Restart fixed it.

When will be the download available ?

One week after the new release it still doesn’t appear here…

are you manually installing it?
if so, is it because it does not appear when checking in System parameter for the update?

I think to remember that the downloads only appear once the update is provided to all devices. Even though the hint of a staged rollout is missing in this initial post, it seems to be one - I don’t see the update yet (Deutsche Telekom SIM)

Same in Austria (HoT). As the last two updates comes really fast, (even the last, the phone reported a new update, before I got the mail), the old behavior will be continued. Little bit disappointed about it.

My Wi-Fi stopped working - every network I connect to now says “no internet”, even though there is. I can use Brave while it says “no internet connection”.

Some apps like Discord and Slack assume there’s no internet and don’t update, and the Wi-Fi disconnects automatically after a few minutes.

Can I roll back the update somehow?

Same here in Germany Deutsche Telekom SIM, OTA update hasn’t arrived yet. Still at

FP5.VT2X.C.107.20260609

is there a manual download available?

The “no internet” check is a ping to a Google service (IIRC); do you have some kind of PiHole or other DNS block list active on your network?

I don’t have any DNS block list, and it happens on every network, starting from the moment I updated. It’s clearly something to do with that.

The Wi-Fi understands it’s connected after switching from DHCP to static IP and then back a few times.

It forgets being connected to the internet the next time I try to connect to it, though. I have to do this every time for each network which is immensely frustrating, especially when I forget and use up all my data.

Now available for me on Deutsche Telekom

Still stuck on VT2P.C.089… (and no, I haven’t tried the SIM card trick)
