Just got offered this. Up through Nov security patch. I'm not on Verizon, FYI since I know they have their own upgrade path.
Nice! I'll have to flash back to stock to see if I can grab the OTA. Also post a screenshot of the "about device" screen once your OTA finishes.

Will do, although I'm traveling for work now and like to do these things when I'm home and settled. Should be able to install on Wed.
Well, I received the OTA as well. I captured the flashable zip file for it, so feel free to sideload away at will. (At your own risk, of course.)

I also got the update just a few minutes ago as well. And I am on Verizon. Maybe we will see the January patch soon enough.

Yeah.. I should have shared that I'm on at&t.
Only took two months for this one.. I'm hoping to see Oreo soon. Seems like it's been rolling out on other Motorola devices from the same generation. I'm really hoping for improved memory management.
Everything else on this device is awesome to me.. except GPS. I don't really understand why it has so much trouble until I start moving for a little bit. Never had issues with any other phone I've owned

Oh... So this means we'll have to wait more for oreo, or may this be a "preparation" for oreo? What does this update brings? I don't have any stability issues..
Well it would make sense to have most devices on the same firmware for a seamless OREO upgrade...
Argh, this is just taking too long unfortunately.

Us RETUS haven't gotten the November patch yet, so it's new to us. I just read what was on the changelog. You may be right about the Oreo preps though.

Did you buy the G5+ directly from Lenovo/Moto unlocked, or through your carrier? There might be a different patchset depending on any carrier the phone might be locked to. Also grab a screenshot of the about device screen if you can.

I can confirm that the November patch is in the -93 retus update.

This is indeed only the November 1st security patch update. How do you not check this stuff before posting wrong information!? Idiots....

If you read this forum looks like the whole world, are currently getting 93, which highly suggests one big update coming ?

Your file can be flash vía twrp? Cuz ive root and dont wanna lose... Im a little newbie and i dont know much about it.
I don't know if this question has been asked and I've combed the threads. When the Android P beta program starts (hopefully tomorrow) will I need an unlocked bootloader for that? I'm currently on VZW's stupid locked bootloader.
I apologize in advance if this has already been answered. I know how you guys hate repeating yourselves.

From what I can remember with Android Oreo Betas, their timeline was pretty on point.

Nice. I jumped on Oreo when it was DP2 so I'm willing to do the same with P.

Update:
And now that I recall, last Google I/O was the release of Oreo DP2 so it's highly likely they'll repeat that.

I did the same exact thing with Oreo. Played around with DP1 but ran DP2 almost constantly until final. I flash different roms constantly, or at least I used to. But anymore vanilla Android is really my cup of tea.
Do not need to unlock

You can flash the OTA firmware in recovery mode. and use adb sideload command to update Android P beta. download OTA firmware in developers.android.com/preview/download-ota.html
BTW, beta is open now
Beta program is open again
Beta is open again but it's still linking to Developer Preview 1 and not the beta. Hopefully they get the new beta links updated today.
I'm using the beta now. Thanks everyone for your responses.
I am downloading the P DP2 now, and it will install. I am stock not rooted or anything.
Is there a way to make this a fresh clean install without having TWRP or root ?
I have a Verizon Pixel 2 XL. Will I be able to go back to Oreo fairly easily if I give the P Beta a try?
Thanks!

when you leave the beta program, you will get ota to roll back to oreo. It will wipe your device.

Thanks for quick reply! Can I leave the beta program at any time?
Google Pay not working.... Can anyone verify?
I'm having connectivity issues with Wi-Fi and Mobile, can anyone confirm?
Any word on Android q root yet? Really itching to upgrade to the beta with the confirmation of more dual sim acitivy versus pie with the 3 and 3xl, but obviously want to keep root.
Yes.

Since when is there root for the 3xl? I know root happened for the 1 and 2's. But the 3's have new partitions now with Q. If I'm wrong, do tell!

And I read about that. However, it seems like it's not real true root and some things just don't even recognize it as root. That's why I asked this question.

Not ready yet for the 3's on Q. He just started working on it again, he was on root for the S10 for quite awhile.
Haven't rooted and installed custom roms since Nexus phones since everything ran good and loved getting security updates on the Pixels. I know this is ending.
Is there any way to get the newest security updates such as installing a custom rom?

You sort of answered your own question. Yes the only way going forward will be with a custom rom and that's only if you don't have a Verizon model.

Is it worth the upgrade to OUI 2.5 over staying at Bootloader 3 with 2.1 waiting for possible root in the future or no? I've been holding off updates for it but wondering still since rarely I have gotten root on a Snapdragon Samsung phone (cept a S7 just a few months back)
Nothing in One UI strikes me as, oh, earthshattering. I'm not into photography so the improvements there don't matter to me. I don't use Dex so wireless Dex isn't meaningful. Google can help you find articles detailing everything that's new in One UI 2.5. If some of what you read sounds good for you, then I'd suggest upgrading.
But like you, I don't root anymore, so there's no need to preserve older boot loaders.

There are ways to unlock bootloader on US snapdragons. I have the US Tmo Note 10 +5G and I got my bootloader unlocked. I am now rooted and on One UI 2.5.

It's a tradeoff. Installing a custom recovery, the way I remember rooting, trips Knox. For me, the secure folder is more important. But I recognize different people have different priorities.
EDIT: Magisk came along after I quit the rooting game, and I've recently read through the steps for rooting without a custom recovery. I might give this a whirl someday.

I know there is that method but I know my dad or me if I can make dough would be able to get the total bootloader price for root. Im more or less waiting on a root vunerability than custom rom for themes and stuff

Good luck with that. The Note 9 people spent years trying and couldn't find one. Wish you the best.
