What do the build numbers mean? - Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers

What do the build numbers mean?
I want to flash stock rom and OTAs but I'm unsure what these mean exactly and cannot find through many searches where to find the answer.
For example on this page I can download otas for
NDE63H , NDE63L, NDE63P etc.
Are these specific device models for different countries that will break my phone if I install the wrong one. Or are they new releases in order of the letter in the build number? Im Guessing the latter? Sorry if noob

1.) Download and install Samsung Kies
2.) Plug your phone in.
3.) If you are on stock, Kies will notify you that you have an update available.
4.) Happy Flashing.
Please discuss the receiving of JB in the sticky thread
Thanks

[Q] Stock Messaging App Have Block List?

Does this intl. version have the block list feature in the htc stock messaging app like in previous devices and Sense? I'm on the Verizon variant of this device and attached below a screenshot of what is available and do not have the blocked list option. I had it on sense 5.5 on an older device. Not sure if they took this feature out completely or if it's in the intl version since you all have the most up to date software version?
We don't even have the power save modes yet so thinking when we do get the software update if you guys have this feature we will too? I do have the option to block calls but not texts?

Can someone check please? Take about 10 seconds to find out if the feature is there or not. Simply hit the settings button like i did in the top right corner of the stock messaging app and if it's there you will have an option that i don't have in my picture that should say something like, Block List. Thank you

Damn, well maybe there is still hope for us on Verizon old firmware. Either with carrier firmware update when we get power save mode this will come or S-Off and put it in. Thank you.
What firmware are you using? International phone model?

[Q] Wiped System in TWRP by accident...

Hi there everyone. As I was attempting to do a full restore, I accidentally selected 'system' vs selecting 'internal storage'
I've been looking around for stock firmware to flash via Odin, but haven't found much. I looked at SamMobile for firmwares but couldn't find anything for the US region. Anything else I can do? Can someone help me? Thanks.

In sammobile search for Southern Cellular. That's usually the USA one.

Where is it reporting as SD1A.210817.015.A4? In Settings/About? Any other details such as what country you're in and what carrier you're using? Anything else you can tell us - are you rooted or applied OTA or factory image manually?

Are you using a custom kernel?
Can you check the hash of the full .017 firmware zip you downloaded and compare it to the hash shown on the website? (I check it after every time I download a full image zip, or an OTA zip)
minus case insens they match
BF3DA4B26554D84F99EAAD9837330C7D757F7D31442397EF89A98307D169D96A
bf3da4b26554d84f99eaad9837330c7d757f7d31442397ef89a98307d169d96a
no custom kernel
curious to know which is the one to apply for google FI or t-mobile or ATT (you'd think i'd know this working for TMO

It was always my impression to use the one that makes sense for the region and carrier you use, i.e. US Carrier, but at least one knowledgeable person in the P6P section said the A1 is the correct one. I haven't had problems with the US Carrier one on AT&T (.017). My wife's phone isn't rooted and she hasn't gotten the December OTA. I mainly leave well enough alone on her phones since some things I've done on all her old phones (which is always the same phone as what I have, to make it easier for me to give her tech support) have given her unwanted surprises.
Oh yeah - you could always try the Official Google Android Flash Tool and see if you get any different results.
so is the 16.a1 correct or 17 for us carriers?

I don't have any better answer than my reply #12. Since the .017 says "US Carriers" on the page with the list of firmware, that's the one I use.
