194 update

Asus has released a small update of around 80meg, security patch level now July.

If not for OS update, atleast ASUS is keeping our phone's security up-to-date by giving monthly security patches

Fix APP2SD issue? why fix it even though they'll remove this capability on MM?
for those of you wondering what are the release notes, here it is:
http://www.asus.com/zentalk/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=87445&extra=page=1&filter=typeid&typeid=199

Can someone post link for OTA for manual flash?

Because as hard as it is for you to believe, some people wont upgrade to MM. They still need to support them.

Zenfone 2 ZE551ML/ZE550ML users have been supporting this device for 1 year & 4 months already, as if it is one of the best selling flagship for the year 2015 and yet Asus turned down its users for just a simple update. Intel SOC they say? Zenfone Zoom also has Intel Chipset and they've release MM earlier.

Well as you can see, many Zenfone 2 Intel users are frustated for the delayed response of just a simple update(i meant MM Final), that already has been using by many other 2014 Smartphone variants since May(eg: Galaxy S5, Xperia Z3).

I'll be lying if i say i'm not waiting for MM update. but when i think that i had this phone for 15 months and or works really fine with lollipop and i know for a fact that they will release MM for it i know for sure that I'll keep using out for another year.

Hi,
I have my Zenfone 2 rooted, with xposed installed and bootloader unlocked with TWRP (3.0) installed. I know that I have to uninstall xposed framework, and root, but I never had my bootloader unlocked with stock ROM, and I'd like to update. I can't seem to find an answer in the forum, so I'm asking here. Will it work directly from the notification if xposed and root are removed ? If not can i sideload it from adb into the twrp adb sideload ? If not can I just fastboot flash the recovery to be able to install it ? I don't really need to be unlocked on this phone anymore but I don't want to flash the raw firmware, because it's going to take a long time to reinstall everything and set everything up properly. So how am I supposed to do it ? Thanks

from my experience, yes you can.
as long you enable all system app(and have all system apps) to avoid any issues.
make sure you uninstall BusyBox first.

I read that i needed to edit the script file for TWRP to install it, do I still have to do it ? Thanks for the answer

It's weird. I am rooted and I took the OTA update. It gave an error when installing but it said it reverted to original configuration. Now when I check for updates, it shows no updates and I am still on 184. How can I take the OTA update again? I don't see the OTA update in the /cache folder either. Thank you.

[Q] Anyone on the 7.1.2 BETA BUILD received the final 7.1.2 OTA yet?

As the subject? ?

Wondering the same myself. I have not.
Someone did mention on an Android site that the beta users should see the OTA pushed in the next few days.

Doubt it will wipe. But you could flash the whole image removing the -w from the bat file.

just flash the system img only
pretty simple

I just got the 7.1.2 image OTA on my Pixel XL and Project Fi. My wife's Pixel hasn't got it yet.

Never used an OTA always flash image simple and no problems, I remember in the past sometimes battery drain etc after installing a OTA

no joy yet here on Google Store Pixel XL on Verizon.

I've been seeing delays in the Verizon rollout with this OTA, not sure why. I have a vzw Pixel however I'm on Project Fi and got the ota almost immediately. I'm not sure if that changes it or not, however.
We also need separate threads or disclaimers for those with locked bootloaders and those unlocked. To say just flash the image instead of sideloading the ota is ludicrous if the bl is locked. That simply can't be done.

Ahh right this thread was intended for people on the beta release ?

I haven't received the OTA yet, I'm on beta 2. I downloaded the update and tried to sideload it, but the installation failed because it says that the beta 2 is a newer build and it won't downgrade. I guess I'll just wait until the OTA from my carrier.

sideloaded the OTA file over Beta 2 tuesday morning and all went fine...have at it! :good:

Android Q Beta now available for Pixel 3a and 3a XL models

The 4th beta is available publicly today and the Pixel 3a models are officially supported again. This means they should show up in "your available devices" and updates will automatically be pushed out to your device. This is certainly easier than having to manually flash them.
https://www.google.com/android/beta

Is this only for unlocked pixel 3a or will it work with carrier locked ones also, such as TMobile.

That is a good question, and honestly I don't know the answer for sure (my phone is bootloader unlocked).
That being said, the Q beta will come across like a normal update would. So I would think it is available to locked devices. Even if you want to quit the beta and go back to Android P, I think that comes across as an update as well (although it will do a factory reset of your device and you will have to download all apps and data again). This is the advantage to participating in the actual official beta vs. manually flashing the beta.

It's an over the air update. One of the points of getting pixel is to be on the bleeding edge with the OS. regardless of carrier. It's available whether you're locked or not. Downloading mine now and I'm still locked on T-Mobile.

Yeah confirmed downloading now. on EE network UK. Also seems fine updating from beta 3 which I was on.

Thanks looks like it will work, it started downloading as OTA once I opted in on the beta. Hopefully it's stable enough for basic use. Thanks!

Having a problem after updating to Q beta 4
Some apps will no longer start, and others leave a screen echo when going to home screen.
How do I re-wipe cache?
If that doesn't work I'll try a factory reset (which makes sense for switching from P to Q anyway)

Just updated to Q Beta 4. So far so good, all apps are running - let's see how this goes !

apologies for the noob question but i'm on rooted stock, i understand i'll lose root installing Q but is there anything else i need to do to avoid getting myself into trouble? uninstall magisk?
edit: i'll tell you what not to do. don't uninstall magisk and reboot. this seemed innocuous enough but now i have the "No command" screen and android Q is the least of my concerns....

Take a breath. It's ok. If your bootloader is unlocked all you have to do is flash factory images with the -w and you should be up and running again in no time. It happens to everyone who plays with root at some point.

god thanks so much for this. appears that just flashing the magisk-patched boot image has the phone booting again but i guess that puts me back at square one (sans data)? assuming to get to Q the best approach is to flash the factory image (currently downloading), go through setup and then get the OTA?

Yes, flash stock boot.img, then OTA will work. But before doing so, join the beta program so that you'll receive beta 4.

all sorted now, on Qb4. thanks for the help folks. it's looking great.

Does beta 4 enables volte on non supported carriers?
Some people on their pixel 3 with beta 3 enables volte with other carriers. Can anyone confirm please

This has been my battery stats in BETA 4 since i flashed it.

I keep getting the notification to update on my Sprint locked Pixel 3a. I don't want to though because I'm really hoping to root this phone in the near future and I don't want to not be able to because I updated.
So I'm really just asking if the Q Beta 4 would affect being able to root?

Just an FYI guys, Beta 4 was pulled this morning due to a bootloop issue. If you're on the beta and get the problem, you'll have to roll back to P, if you're looking to upgrade to Q, id say wait and make sure the issue is fixed.

October? OCTOBER?!?!? AHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!! It looks almost like a joke. But I suppose this is the result of the delays. They had the codebase ready weeks ago, they needed to debug and they did not want to risk introducing new bugs, quite likely. Acceptable, overall.
Edit: and I'm not even getting it OTA yet. It's on the Updater app, though.

Who said that? But November sure as hell should be there! And Samsung had theirs before the end of November for DECEMBER, and Essential had their December patch out the first day of December, which is before the Pixel 4 series, which still hasn't been released. Quit sticking up for OnePlus, when it's very clear they are screwing up lately.

Well somebody around here said it worked but some of the issues are still there. Like the Google certification and others... So I wouldn't jump into the update just yet... I'll wait some time. I jumped when the "stable" 10.0.0 came out and regret it so I reverted back. So I'll just wait for now. I'm also a Tmo 6t converted. RightNow on 9.0.17

Update delay on Oneplus 8T

I don't know what's happening exactly with oneplus that is have this type of delay with the monthly updates and security patches with the Serie 8, I don't want to install a custom room but it looks like i will be force to do so due to the lack of updates from oneplus, hope that oneplus do something for the community who like Oxygen OS.

IDK what you're talking about. There was an update 2 weeks ago.

Yes but it was a beta one no a stable one....
