Hi guys, I really hope you can give me a hand here. I was rooted using method 3. Yesterday I unrooted the device. Today there were some OTA updates, so I downloaded them and wanted to install them. It was 58 if I'm not mistaken. The phone rebooted and started installing the updates and after few seconds a symbol of android popped up with an error message. After that the phone started and said that update wasn't installed and the origanal settings were returned. After that it said that there wen't new updates available. Factory reset didn't help either. Later a new update was available 59 I think, but the same thing happened... I really don't know what to do now.
I have ZF2 64Gb, WW version installed on it.
right now running 2.19.40.22
I'm really hoping for your help
Update: I've don't system wipe and cache wipe from the recovery menu
Update N2: I've managed to install V2.19.40.22 image from official website. But my phone doesn't show me an option to do an OTA update, it says that there aren't any update available. Is there a way to make him check again properly?

Do you mean as in making the file MOFD_SDUPDATE.zit puting it on the SD card and through recovery? The update starts, then says gives an error
In recovery it says:
Veryfying current system...
"/system/build.prop" has unexpected contents
E: Error in /sdcard/MOFD_SDUPDATE.zip
(status 7)
I might have edited my build.prop file back then when I was playing with DPI. Now I can't find the line I edited... please help

That's why you have to flash the pre root firmware first. It restores all the system files so they can pass the check while the OTA runs.

I sideloaded the OTA the same day it released instead of waiting for it to be pushed to my phone.

I'm still on DP2 with the Nov 5 patch level. Figured being in the beta program I'd get the official patch right away but nothing yet.
Mee too still no dec patch
my understanding is on beta you will not get the security patches, when the dp2 becomes the propper version then remember to come out the beta program
Still no OTA for my Pixel XL.
Stock 8.0 Nov security patch.
Sideloaded it here.. not waiting!
Definitely the 8.1
So, there are 2 Google Pixel 2 XL phones in the house... 1 64GB and 1 128GB. Guess which one got the 8.1 update (528GB)? That's right, the 64GB! The 128GB is still waiting...
Both phones were purchased straight from Google and added to AT&T

Same exact thing I did the minute I got home from work the day it was released! Don't understand why all ppl won't do this instead of complaining about waiting for the OTA to get pushed to their phones!

Right on!:good:
In my case i just opted out beta program, check settings and received 8.0.0 notification. It erased my phone but i don't care. Installed and check for 8.1. Received as well and done.
Backup tool in pixel and auto fill for my passwords made it easy
Now I'm on 8.1 december security patch. Always locked and never with root

I also sideloaded shortly after it was posted on my Pixel XL. However, I just noticed this article...
http://www.androidpolice.com/2017/1...pulling-latest-otas-promised-itll-fixed-2018/
Apparently, the "Check for Update" button functionality was broken recently via an update to Google Play Services. That bug won't be corrected until early in 2018. So - it appears the best way to get the 8.1 update (if you don't want to wait until next year), would be to sideload the OTA or flash factory images - depending on your preference and bootloader status...
Good luck.

Do people still capture the incremental OTA update filename from logcat, and post for people to sideload, or since Google publishes the full OTA's, do people just sideload that? Wondering if there's really a difference? Thanks!
Got it to update! I read on another forum to put it in airplane mode, clear the cache then the data in Google services framework, and then turn airplane mode off.... almost immediately after turning airplane mode off, I got the notification for the latest update!

Thank you. Mine didn't show up after clearing cache and data. I rebooted and there is was.
My question is that the sideload file on Google's download page is approximately 960 MB while the OTA notification I just received is about 567MB. Are they the same?
Thanks

Obviously they're not the same. It seems Google only needed to update your particular rom the 567 MB. Were you on the beta?
so its october 12th, and i still dont have the september update, let alone the october update.
magisk/twrp installed
opted into the beta and back out to try to refresh some kind of hidden cache or something, no luck
going to manually install via pc, but id like to know potential reasons this would happen and how to resolve it so i can do the november one using the magisk method from their github
system update says up to date with august 5th patch installed
EDIT: please move to pixel 2 forum (although same info still applies)
If you are rooted you can't receive OTA, you must sideload it.
Did you sign up for the Android Pie beta testing programme? I was still signed up on my Pixel 2 XL and wasn't getting the update too until I left the programme.
The same happened to my friend's 2xl. I ended up sideloading the ota for him however one of my relatives was complaining as well. No ota notification popped up for her. No root, no custom recovery, full stock. She factory reset the phone and the update notification immediately popped up at the first boot. In the past it worked and triggered the ota update if you force stopped Google services framework and cleared cache and data. I don't know it it works now. Anyway, sideload the update and hopefully next month it will work again or try a factory reset if your device is stock with no root.

I was not in the beta program. I did sign up yesterday and immediately leave it, thinking maybe that would force some kind of hidden cache to be cleared. No luck.

This is not true. I've always gotten the notifications until these past 2 months. There is now a way to get the ota without side loading, and it worked on our other one, I just wasn't getting the notifications on mine.
I was in the pie beta program and once the official release came out I got the monthly update in September. However, I still haven't gotten the October one which is weird. Guess I shouldn't really care since I have the 3 coming soon anyway.
Ive always had the notification of the update when rooted on this phone.
So there is 14 Huawei and honor modelos Who recieve the Magic ui 2.1 emui 9.1 and the one that we have is not supporting It. It even have only the march patch, how can we update It ir change the region to china? I don't mind installing gapps trough APK.
If you know methods for unlocking It is good. There is bugs for this phone like the AI for me if the camera does not work.
After resetting HiCare and setting it up in the Chinese region before requesting updates, I can confirm that this method NO LONGER works.
They probably will roll out the OTA with May Security Patch soon. I already gotten mine 2 days ago. 9.0.1.169 C636 Region.
You have European versión?
Mine is PCT-AL29
I have just received 170 for PCT L29 C432 Europe Version!

How did you get the update? Did you use the system update option from the settings app, via HiCare, or using HiSuite on a PC? I'm using PCT-L29 and it still says 140 is the newest.
From Settings,Ota Update.
Security Patch from May.
I am from Austria with Moschino Edition,8/256GB

My pct-l29 is not updated since March, will it receive Magic UI 2.1?
My PCT-L29 still doesn't seem to detect the latest OTA, if I boot to recovery and check for the latest version it will attempt to download 9.0.1.137. I ended up downloading version 170 and flashing it via OTG.
Weirdly enough I was previously on 140 and it wasn't Play Store certified, but after installing 170 the Play Store certification was restored.

Everything was reset. OTG updates will always force a factory reset when complete. I had to backup my phone to an external USB storage device and then restore it after the update. Unfortunately, the backup doesn't actually save everything so I had to spend 3 hours afterwards manually restoring whatever wasn't included in the backup.

Is the 170 update a significant improvement? The biggest glitch I found with 138 compared with 125 is not being able to use my Bluetooth earphones to initiate Google Assistant when the screen was off. Maybe I was doing something wrong.
My update showed up in Software Update this evening. It included the May security patch.
9.0.1.169 (C432E1R2P1)
i have PCT-L29 (432) im still on .137 i dont know what hapening.Any one can link me the latest firmware ?i dont have problem with reseting my phone...

170 added a few themes and included the May 2019 security patches. I noticed that since updating, all Discord notifications stopped working no matter how I changed the settings. Completely uninstalling it and then reinstalling seemed to fix it.
My Google Play system update was stuck on 1 July for several months now. And today I notice it turns red with no more updates available. Anyone have the same problem nor know how to fix it?
I'm on latest stock ROM with locked BL.
Same here, is there an update??
That is apparently the current version?
Same on my phone, but I could update it manually to Sept 1. now.
Weird that it was not done automatically.

Oh, mine had the update today. 6.3k, can't have been much in it.
I don't think it was automatic in the past either. But I have is updates set to manual so maybe that's why?

Same story on my other phone Samsung A30s. So I guess it's not A2 lite specific.

This was a problem for me as well. My moto g 5g was stuck on that of 1 August 2020. I searched all over the internet but couldn't find anything that would work. I even did a factory reset but that too didn't work and the it was still showing that no updates were available. But yesterday while I was using the "Multiple User" option available under the "System" in settings (not as guest but new user) and tried checking Google Play system update and surprisingly there was an update available. I changed from new user to the original user (admin) and found that still there was no update available there. So I checked back to the new user and updated the phone. Why Google treated the new user differently is something that I want to know?
