    Woke up this morning to a surprise. Update ACS702 was waiting for my BBF100-2 US unlocked KEY2. Installed pretty quickly. New patch level is September 5, 2020.

    Fantastic. But wasn't it written here that there will be no more updates for the KEY models?

    Yes... I remember reading a post here on CrackBerry that the North American KEY2s were done getting updates with March being the last one.

    Just goes to show you we all have to be careful what we believe posted here on CrackBerry and make sure it comes from a credible source.

    What does the new update fix? Can updates still be pushed out during warrant support period or was this some obligation delayed at licensing termination based on the date and just delayed 6 weeks?

    Yes the "Experts" said no more updates were coming for KEY2. Like the other speculations believe what you want.

    Well I can take back my accusation of them not even providing 2 full years of updates for the KEY2.
    The accusation remains there for the LE unless it receives the October 2020 patch.

    TCL can be full of surprises...

    Exactly Bob.

    The speculations have gotten out of control.

    Actually, BBMo themselves tweeted that May/Jul would be the last patches.

    Apparently they may have forgotten about one or more contracts they had to deliver 24 months of updates.

    You can now remove the sim card from your Nokia and back to your KEY2 and keep it there until the end of 2020.

    I doubt it, it's a security patch.

    It doesn't exist. Never trust quoted Twitter posts from people who don't use Twitter.

    There is - as far as I could track it - no official tweet from BlackBerry Mobile naming the end of the security patches.

    The last official statement on Twitter is the announcement of the end of selling BlackBerry branded devices. No speak of the end of security patches.

    EU mandates warranty and service 2 years out so maybe they decided to send it to all…

    Or maybe it was an error…
