Nope. Not me.

I just checked and I do have the Jan 5 2018 security patch. I am on Verizon with the Pixel 2 XL purchased from Target in December.

Yes, received it over the air on the 9th. Pixel 2 XL, purchased from Google store, Verizon.

Try uninstalling updates to the phone app. I had issues with the screen not waking & that worked for me

I got it the 8th I believe. On verizon with an unlocked one from google.

Got it as soon as I turned on my phone before unlocking. January 5th I think. No sim was installed yet.

I too am on at&t on a Google bought /unlocked p2 XL. And no OTA for me either. But............. I've enrolled my pixel in the android beta program as soon I got it. Not sure if that has anything to do with it.

On TMO nothing yet here -

Is there a forum for

Pixel XL 2 yet?
Sent from my Pixel XL using Tapatalk
No, not yet....
New forums don't usually get added until the device has at least been officially announced.
I thought it was officially announced?

Nothing available here in my 64gb 2 xl
Copy that, came through for me yesterday (10/18). No idea what it changed.
Has anyone captured the ota? It sure would be nice if google would post OTA's and factory images for these devices already
I got the ota yesterday. I was wondering if anyone else had any info. It's still the September security update... I thought that was weird
Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk
I got it yesterday, went ahead and took it since mine's an unlocked version. No security update. It said fixes and improvements for features or something like that. It was pretty small too. The update seriously took like 60 seconds lol.

No update for me - wonder why some get it and others don't. Is it geographical ? I
Goode usually does a staged rollout for updates, I haven't gotten it on mine yet either so those of us without it should get it within a few days probably.
You're supposed to be able to pull it now with the check for updates button. I'm on a Google unlocked 2 XL on Verizon. Maybe it's Verizon specific?

This is suppose to be the case but it's not really true. I had a regular Pixel that didn't get the October security update till 4? days after it was released even though I had the latest stable play services, hitting check update did nothing.
That's a bummer
Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk
Doesn't is seem odd that there is no October security update for the Pixel 2 and 2 XL? Wasn't it released in general on October 3? Why aren't the phones shipping with it? And if not, why does it exist for the original Pixel phones but not the Pixel 2/XL?
I am on Verizon and didn't get any update...

That's the version I'm running but as far as I know, that is the version on the phone out of the box.
-- Never mind. I did not get an update and there are no full OTA files posted for the Pixel 2.

Moving a Pixel XL from TMobile to Verizon?

I just upgraded my TMobile line to a 2 XL, and I want to use my old XL for my Verizon line. In the old 6P days, I would have to change the image due to them being carrier specific. Is that true for the Pixel XLs? It appears that Verizon is using OPR3.170623.013 now, and there is no specific Verizon image. Can someone just confirm that I should be able to reset the phone, pop the Verizon SIM in, and be off to the races? Thanks!
My understanding is just pop in the sim and you are good to go. It may tell you there is an update available and it may wait until the December update is ready. The Verizon specific firmware really just deals with some reception/radio type stuff from what I have read. When I got my Pixel XL I just dumped the sim in it from my old phone and it took care of itself, I have a Google Store version with a Verizon SIM.

With the 6p, I had horrid coverage problems until I put the Vz specific OS on it...
Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk
I can't speak to that, I would just pop the sim in and see what happens, it will take a Verizon firmware, I just don't know when. When you put the sim in give it a few minutes to see if it does it on its own, if not check for updates in settings and see if that pulls it in. No harm in just giving it a shot.
