Nothing but issues with this phone. I recently had to send it off for warranty service and it's been mostly reliable since. I just got the notice that a software update is available and attempted to download it. I'm sitting three feet from my router with a 1gbps connection and I'm on 5g with a full connection. The update simply will not download, it has an error that reads "Something's not right, reconnecting to server" this has been going on for hours. I've restarted my device multiple times, made sure there are no active VPNs or Firewalls and still nothing. I expect a flagship device to be better than my previous 3 year old Huawei Mate20 Pro, but it isn't at all... I paid full price for this pos at launch and to say I'm disappointed is an understatement. I switched back to my old phone, and I have to say its camera and screen made me wonder why I ever put up with the Edge+ at all. I want to like the Edge, but there's just too many issues. Please reach out with a fix for my software update issue or a link to a manual update that I can apply.

Hi.

Sorry to hear you are having issues. There are a couple of troubleshooting steps I can recommend, plus with your help we can take a look from our end.

• Remove your SIM card and try to download via WiFi. I'm not sure why this works but there is evidence that it can help.
• Check your phone's available memory. It's possible the phone does not have enough space to accommodate the download.

We can check from our end too: Please update your profile with current phone, carrier and serial number -- this will help me investigate.

• Please make sure that the options under Settings > Motorola Privacy are on as well.
• Let me know (just reply here) if it's okay for me to look at your apps to see if they are a source of problems.
• Need help updating your profile? See here. https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Forum-Feedback/Complete-your-forums-profile/td-p/3339943

There is a tool for flashing the new software, which we can try if these steps don't help.

Again, apologies for the hassle. Let me know about the above.

Hi Matt.  I had the same update issue yesterday.  After trying to restart and just use wifi to download the files, I just decided to leave the phone unused for 30 minutes and came back to look at it and the update installed ok.  It asked to restart and after that it said it upgraded successfully.
