Question about an update I just received OTA - Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers

So I just received a notification about a system update for my phone. It's just very strange since I've never received one on this phone at all. I'm stock/rooted. on AT&T. It says it's about 1.2GB in size. Just wondering if anyone else had received anything like that? I really do need to update my phone, hell I think I'm still on the December patch. I'm not a noob but have been stuck on un-rootable phones for the last 3 years or so and things have changed quite a bit from what I'm used to

If you are still on December's patch then there will be more than 1 update. Although 1.2 gigs seems high for a monthly patch

Yeah, I thought the same thing. I was just going to update to the newest patch and see if the update still came up or not. I'm curious to what it is since it is such a large size. See pic.

I received it as well, with exactly the same size as yours.
And my system version is up to March...

I'm on May and just got the message.

Your first instinct was correct. Update your phone manually and ignore any OTA's.

No Lollipop Update

I have not received any update for Android 5.0 yet. I find this pretty odd considering it has been out for a long time. Everything seems to be functionally normally, but I never get any OTA update notification and it says I have the latest updates. Is this something to be concerned about, or am I just extremely unlucky to be one of the last ones to get it? Thanks.

The Nexus 7 is experiencing issues with L. My dad's device also didn't get it yet.
However, nothing stops you from flashing the image yourself from Googl's developer site.
This is the first time I've heard of this. Thanks for giving us all a heads up!
Oh wait, there's only about 10 other threads on the first page about this very issue.

April security update

Has anyone gotten their April security OTA yet? I received the phone a few weeks ago and flashed the March OTA right away and relocked bootloader afterwards because I did not want to sit through several incremental updates. So I am wondering if something went wrong. Does it usually take this long after a new factory image is released for it to get pushed OTA? Sorry, this is my first Nexus since the Galaxy Nexus/Nexus S days.
I own an italian LG Nexus 5X (32 GB variant) and I have received no April update for my phone till now... still waiting

Sometimes ive gotten then within a week sometimes not for 3 weeks ish. Seems fairly random.
Just read up on sideloading the OTA update via ADB, thats what I do now rather than wait. Doesnt need any bootloader unlocking or anything.
Same here: i suggest you to read this https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/nexus/fOAWe8jMRsQ so you'll be more relaxed.
We get it when we get, that's all!
I'm on international variant of the 5x on AT&T here in US and I received the OTA already for April
I've got news!
My Nexus 5X received the OTA tonight at 8.00 PM
Got mine in UK at about 6pm tonight

I'm also waiting for the update to show up.
I'm also based in the UK and got mine already last week. One thing, though: I've noticed that after the update, the location icon will at one point start to show up permanently in the notification bar, and whenever that happens, my battery drains pretty quickly. Only solution I found was to turn off gps/location. Is anyone else also experiencing this?
got mine in ćzech at 13.april

I just got update to Nougat on AT&T

Mine is updating now but stated "security update will install?"
Looks like the N920AUCS4EQG1 update Nobarb found for all of us and referenced as unreleased a little bit back. (Thank you once again, Nobarb for all your hard work!!)
Probably just another security update. With the S8, S8+ and now the Note 8 forthcoming I can't imagine Samsung throwing us any more bones for our good old Note 5.

My apologies...I may have misunderstood what you were talking about. I just got an update yesterday and it was the QG1 update which brings in the July 1, 2017 update.
If you are not fully up to that build, keep trying for an update. You might try manually pushing your clock ahead a day if it is restricting you by the time limit.
I also received this new update and installed it. No difference in battery life or performance whatsoever... Just security updates.
Ever since my phone was updated to Nougat, it has been randomly rebooting (sometimes once a week and sometimes twice in 10 minutes). I can still use it fine but I'm honestly getting tired of finding it stuck at the "Enter PIN" (encrypted phone) screen after restarting. So I'm missing important calls without even realizing it when the phone is in my pocket. Anybody else seeing this? Suggestions welcome.
I did a cache wipe at least 10 times now and that didn't help. Don't wish to do a factory reset... It's a pain to setup android the way I like.
Thanks for any help guys.
someone can give me firmware N920AUCS4EQG1, im out side US,pls!

Sprint V30+ November 2018 security patch

Figured I'd post this since it seems to have changed a few things.
Today I got an update notification and the size seemed a bit large (~900 MB). I kinda was hoping it would be a surprise Pie update, but alas it is not. Still 8.0.0 oreo, but there are a few new things I noticed.
Calling Plus is no more. Appears to be replaced with VoLTE capabilities. Phone tried registering on the network, but I got an error. Regular calling seems to be fine.
Always on Display is different now. Similar functionality, but fewer options.

I know you're probably joking, but PIE is not going to show up as some random update. It's going to Korea carrier variants first. Maybe Q1 2019. Then everyone else. PROBABLY Q2 2019.
We will have plenty of notice about Pie, when it starts happening.

In any case, functionality has changed a bit. Just a heads up.
After update phone no longer has lte. Stays on 3g. Not sure why or how to fix it. Reset networks, Rebooted, updated prl and profile but nothing has fixed it so far.

Sometimes updates create issues on a phone running stable and fine with current rom and we wonder why we updated?
I bought this phone a month ago (living in India) and I find that phone is running absolutely fine, with great battery life and no issues whatsoever with August security update.
Now -- may be I will update to new update (whenever released for India phones) only after couple of weeks after going through feedback from users who updated.
I have read that lg v30 is part of google enterprise recommended which need to be regularly updated every 90 days for atleast security patch. I am from india and i got last update at end of august but till i am posting this message i didn't got any update which shows avery pathetic promise breach. Which not good for brand like lg i didn't expect from lg???

Don't be concerned on not receiving update. From what I am reading on some other threads for V30+ -- believe me, you are saved from issues in new updates released in other parts of the world for our phone. Phone is running absolutely fine with last update. We should wait for an update which will not give us any performance issues.
