Note: "As part of IT security best practices, Google Android enforces that the Security Patch Level (SPL) for the new OS or patch must be the same level or a newer level than the OS or patch version currently on the device. If the SPL for the new OS or patch is older than the SPL currently on the device, then the device will enterprise reset and wipe all user data and settings including user network configurations and remote management tools which would render the device inaccessible over a network."
