Are you using Xposed? Xposed modifies your system partition and OTAs don't work with a modified /system. Open Xposed and uninstall all of the modules, then uninstall Xposed. The OTA should work for you then.
i got this message after update the software with odin. the problem is that i cant downgrade now please help
I'm getting this error can anyone help my my device is in bootloop so I tried to downgrade to 7.1.2 but i forgot unlock device so i used a method in xda https://www.google.co.in/amp/s/foru...-fix-bootloop-locked-bootloader-t3608679/amp/
but I can't sideload ota or can't boot device(its still in bootloop)
okay nevermind I'm noob figured it out..if anyone can delete thread please do it..sorry
First off I want to preempt by saying I have searched for answers to the best of my abilities and haven't found a solution that has worked. However I might have missed one. I will attempt to be as thorough as i can here.
I have a rooted unlocked pixel 2xl, Magisk no twrp. I have attempted to sideload the Ota but it fails before it gets off the ground. I get a verification error and the Ota fails to load.
Dumb question #1) do i need to unroot to sideload the ota with the setup I have.?I thought unrooting was only necessary with partitioned recovery like TWRP.
I have the latest tools, the latest OTA for my model phone, a hope a prayer, but little else.

What am I missing? Any help would be appreciated.

Let me start with, you're in the wrong section, with the wrong phone for the section. Actually, I'm starting and ending with that. I wish you luck though.
See and that's why your senior member thanks

- fastboot flash stock boot.img (current running version, inside factory image.zip)
- boot to stock recovery and sideload the OTA.zip
after that you need boot/flash twrp and root the phone if you want to have root again.
Yeah I was hoping to avoid all that as I would need to free my tether as well. Allot of steps for an update, but it's looking like I might not have a choice.

u prolly were answered already but if ur unlocked u should be updating through fastboot..
o and this is a dev section plus not the xl forum lol
Yeah I was informed. I'm not sure how I wandered my way here but you know mistakes and all that. I'll be more careful next time. I figured a mod would have struck me down by now.
Thanks

If you're using xda labs, first running after install on my pixel 2, the app automatically took me to the pixel 2 xl forums when I clicked my device. Honest mistake. Don't let these ethugs bother ya. Did you get your xl fixed?

Your better off flashing factory images via fastboot
