- There is just a new update for aurora around 41 MB. Update AAN772
This device is awesome and has a great battery. The daughter really enjoying this big screen device.09-06-17 04:36 PMLike 0 - Could you post a screenshot of Settings > About phone if you have it installed on a device you can access?09-06-17 04:52 PMLike 0

- It's a discount device. PT BB Merah Putih is clearly only paying for occasional updates from BlackBerry instead of monthly.09-07-17 11:33 PMLike 0
- And how does that help Blackberry as a brand when one of their device is out of date? Even if the Indo Company is paying for these updates, it should be in the interest of blackberry to maintain this device. Even though this device is a discount device, it still feels like a very good device with full capabilities. I haven't seen any limitations with this device compared to a Samsung Galaxy or Google pixel or even an iPhone 7. By the way, I don't need a waterproof or an NFC device.09-07-17 11:49 PMLike 0
- If Blackberry is clearly good with that then they cannot be trusted with security and updates. What if a device is infected with a virus or spyware, then what happens? The licensee and blackberry should work together, but apparently that's not happening here. Extremely unprofessional and greedy at the same time. This is why Indonesia is the way it is.09-08-17 12:18 AMLike 0
- They're waffling on major updates for the Priv and DTEKs, let alone this licensed device only sold in one country and updated every time the Cubs win the World Series. Don't expect much more from it.09-08-17 12:24 AMLike 0
- Monthly updates are supposed to be free anyway and these updates come directly from Google not from Blackberry. Blackberry only packages into their rom and that's not hard to do. If You're expect consumers to pay for monthly updates that you might as well not even release any products. Let me ask you something, does Apple or Google pixel expect you to pay for their monthly update? Of course not, because it's supposed to be for free!
BlackBerry does a lot more work than you think with the updates - there is far more to the patches than AOSP tweaks.09-08-17 12:24 AMLike 0 - And this is the exact reason why Android and blackberry get a bad rep, because their devices never get updated and what's worse, the security patches are not even up to date. You give viruses and spyware on your phone, they tell you good luck. Yeah I see why people are still going for iPhones and Samsung Galaxies.

Why do you think BlackBerry Android devices in the other markets are so much more expensive?09-08-17 12:59 PMLike 0 -

And isn't BlackBerry's license agreement a set amount per device? Doesn't really matter what the licencee sells the device for does it?09-08-17 04:24 PMLike 0 - BlackBerry is being paid by the licencee somehow - either at the point of sale of the device, or a fee per update. Either way, the more patches/servicing, the higher the cost that the licencee would have to pass on to its customers. There's only one pocket.09-08-17 04:27 PMLike 0

As for the concern some people are showing, yes I can see how a software company that touts its security and gartner rating may want to patch up any potential issues that could cause its software to be hacked. Yet they don't seem to be doing that.09-08-17 04:38 PMLike 0 - Possible but that's pure conjecture really. Until if ever BlackBerry discloses how these license deals are set up, nobody can say one way or the other how it all works.

Either they made a deal that involves less updates for less money, or BlackBerry is supposed to provide monthly updates and is in breach of contract. No one seems upset, and I see no pending lawsuits, so I bet on the former.09-08-17 04:41 PMLike 0
