8.1 "final" OTA won't sideload - Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers

So, here's the error I get (per the phone screen): "E:\Update package is older than the current build, expected a build newer than timestamp 15107775026, but package has a timestamp 1510540413 and downgrade not allowed."
I think their QC department is a local elementary school. How can the timestamp on a file released today be older than a timestamp on a file released a month ago?

dafuq? I'm getting exactly the same error. idiots!

flash the whole image

At the moment you cannot sideload if you are on the Developer Preview 2, only way is to flash which will wipe everything.

anyone has the OTA for those on DP2?

I'm not on DP2 and mine won't sideload either.
c:\android-sdk\platform-tools>adb sideload taimen-ota-opm1.171019.011.zip

if you edit the flash-all script it will not wipe anything

The issue is that the build that they used is older. Look at the numbers. .11 is the final and .12 is the beta. My guess is there was an issue in the beta build so they rolled it back .

This is a stupid question, but I've never edited the flash-all file before. Do you just edit out the -w in notepad and save it? Or do I need something else to edit it?
Thanks!

thats all you need to do.
just make sure the flash-all you run is the version you edited.

Flash all.bat is the easiest way

True, but if you have to unlock the bootloader to flash then it will wipe regardless.
If bootloader is already unlocked then this will work.

So those on DP2 with unlocked bootloader when/how will be able to update to official/final 8.1?

you can do it now if you want to, flash the factory images.
else, wait for the OTA to come from Google.

Ops sorry I wrote unlocked but meant LOCKED!!!!
Can I flash factory images with locked bootloader without wiping data?

Flash factory image VZ wireless

Has anyone who has unlocked their bootloader successfully flashed a different factory image other than the image on their phone. I've tried numerous ways and have had no success after unlocking my bootloader. Thanks to anyone who may chime in

Not until you want to update to newer firmwares and there is no unlock method on those bootloaders. Converting to a GPS Pixel would be ideal if it is even possible.

If you unlock now and update later your bootloader will remained locked unless Google finds a way to push a bootloader update with the coming OTA's that locks your bootloader after unlocking but that's highly unlikely. Plus, if you jump the gun and install the OTA before knowing the results of the OTA, you're kind of asking for something like this to happen. Hopefully Google doesn't find a deceitful way of pushing bootloader updates to lock us back up as you know they have already learned that a backdoor was found to unlock the Verizon bootloaders. They're not stupid and Jcase already said the sunshine guys were sending the exploit to Google so they would patch it. Vulnerabilities are too common these days on Android and these exploit seekers are quick to submit patches for them.
OK. Finally was able to flash the latest pixel factory image on my PXL. Minimal and fastboot and latest drivers from Google.
i sorta need help in this department as well... do i unzip the zip inside the zip??
im getting missing recovery.img and missing boot.sig i would like to make this a non verizon device. the flash-all.bat didnt work and i tried modifying it by removing -w but still same errors. spoon feed me please or teamview? its been 2 days

Question about flashing image with fastboot

I'm going to be exchanging my pixel and getting another one. Just curious so I know for the future.. if I flash the full factory image via fastboot does that relock the bootloader? I'm gonna guess that it doesn't but just wanna make sure.
New to adb and fastboot so I've been reading around like crazy trying to learn. Is the only way to lock again to use the actual lock command in fastboot?
Edit: I'm referring to using the flash-all.bat script
Yes, you will have to re-lock the bootloader. Do it with fastboot in the bootloader.
Although, you don't have to re-lock the bootloader before sending your phone back... Especially since it will have the stock image flashed to it.

No. Flashing the factory image does not relock the bootloader. After you have successfully rebooted, return to the bootloader and use the command: fastboot oem lock

Right click the flash-all script, and choose edit (or something like that) from the drop down menu. In the last line where it says "fastboot -w update..." delete the "-w". Then just use this flash-all.

Correct. Let me ask you, do you have any modifications to your Pixel? Root, TWRP, custom kernel? If not, you'd be better off with ADB sideload.

I have root and that's it. So if I'm understanding correctly, I would put the factory image zip in the platform tools folder and extract it there, open a command window from that folder and run this command fastboot flash-all

Errors flashing factory image

That's odd for sure! Looks just like my files when I updated to the February build. I'm assuming you get the proper response when you type in fastboot devices as well?? Maybe try fastbooting the January image again, and then try the February one. Almost sounds like something got corrupted when you tried to unroot. Are you clean or dirty flashing the update? ?

Your not going to be upgrading everything with the factory image unless you try to flash them individually. Which probably still won't work without the updated bootloader.

There is no recovery.img anymore on the P2XL. The recovery now resides in the boot.img. If you want to save yourself some headaches further down the road, unlock the critical, wipe the phone, and start over. Then updating every month will be a piece of cake :good:

This. When I first unlocked my bootloader I didn't see to unlock critical, and when I saw afterward it was said to be unnecessary. I'll start from scratch and report back. Sigh.
Flashed critical and was in a bootloop with TWRP but managed to adb flash-all. Still showed missing files but it kept going and now all up to date. Thanks guys!
Side note: Since Google backs up and restores practically everything, do you guys bother with TiB anymore? I haven't in years and just did a backup before all this but doesn't seem like it offers much more.

will magisk being installed prevent ota from working?

I haven't rooted my device since like 3 devices ago. i'm looking into it for this one, but i'm afraid that i'll have to uninstall magisk to perform an OTA. is this the case? or will OTAs go through with magisk in there? and if it does't prevent it, will i have to re-root after OTA?
It will stop OTAs, last time I tried.

Flashing anything other than official flash alls in bootloader or twrp will make OTAs fail. There are mixed success stories with people flashing all back to stock with an official flash all from Motorola to get OTAs.

Yes, in theory, an official flash all and following the flashfile.xml instructions should put you back to a state where OTAs will go through. Some people have said it didn't work for them. It always has for me, so YMMV.

Do I need a certain program to open the XML file? I believe its opening with windows explorer now, Also what commands do I run? all I see is just a bunch of writing, never messed with an XML file before. any tutorials for flashing this way?
downloaded NASH_TMO_C_OCXS27.109-51-4_subsidy-TMO_RSU_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml and the tmo flashall, still downloads the update file but fails at some point when installing it, if i can figure out how to run the flashfile XML commands maybe that will fix the problem.... Advice on how to run those commands will be very appreciated...
