Description

The updater shows all previous OS versions in the list. This can cause confusion and even brick user phones

  • The updater shows previous OS versions in upgrade or test ROM's

What is the improved behavior?

  • The Updater should show only the upgrade OS or any OS version which is greater than the current one installed.
  • The Updater should NOT show user downgrade OS version even if it is Official

What does it bring?

  • This fix is required as without it users can get confused and if the downgraded build is applied it can potentially brick user device.
