Downloading New Software Version

[dontpanicbobby]

Storage card is still the same.
Heading to Settings>About phone.

It punked me.
Installing now

 

[Member2047631]

What are you talking about?

 

[dontpanicbobby]

Installing either Android 7.1 or 8.0.
Updating now... (2/2)

 

[Member2047631]

What do you mean 'it punked me'

 

[dontpanicbobby]

When it said downloading new software I thought it would install itself.
Silly me.

Lockscreen.

 

[Member2047631]

Ok, so you can't help me with my problem?

 

[dontpanicbobby]

All that drama and it was just the January 2018 Security update.

 

[Member2047631]

Oh.

 

[dontpanicbobby]

Red Skeleton!

 

[Member2047631]

What are you talking about??

 

[dontpanicbobby]

The guy in the .gif.

 

[Member2047631]

Oh ok then

 

[dontpanicbobby]

I hoped it was Oreo.

 

[Member2047631]

Well maybe you should be glad, because upgrading from stock version slows down your device a lot. Trust me, I think I already told you about my Nexus 7...

 

[dontpanicbobby]

Pup. My last two phones have been carrier unlocked. Straight from the OEM.

Nexus got nothing on that.

 

[Member2047631]

I'm having trouble understanding a lot of the things you are saying, including this...

First of all what is carrier locked, and second what is OEM?

 

[dontpanicbobby]

OEM=Original Equipment Manufacturer
Carrier unlocked=If the SIm card fits, use it.
I'm a stalker.

 

[Member2047631]

But I don't understand how 'the Nexus got nothing on that'

My Nexus 7 is literally basically unusable because it's so insanely slow... And it has 27 GB (I think) and I only was using about 5 and it was still insanely slow.

 

[dontpanicbobby]

I've got to get you to the Nexus 7 forums.
Here's the link to the (2012) version and this will take you to the (2013) version.

 

[Member2047631]

Well I don't use the Nexus 7 any more so it doesn't really matter...

 

[dontpanicbobby]

OT:

But I don't understand how 'the Nexus got nothing on that'

Nexus is or was the Google phone. HTC, Samsung, LG, Motorola and Huawei have all made Nexus phones in collaboration with Google.

Asus, Samsung and HTC manufactured Nexus Tablets for Google. End of history lesson. Any luck on your Lenovo issue?

 

[Member2047631]

Well the Lenovo issue doesn't really matter... The thing I'd really want to fix is this YouTube issue. It seems like it's only with the Lenovo, because if you go to the play store and see reviews 'only by this device' then it seems everyone else is having this problem:
