OTA Updates on a custom setup? - Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I have a rooted Nexus 6P with the Stock Android ROM, Nougat 7.1.1 (NMF26O), NetHunter kernel, TWRP and some features of Pixel XL flashed (Pixel launcher, Google Assistant, Dynamic Navigation bar, Black Bootanimation etc.).
Can I keep my phone up to date with Google's OTA updates? If yes, how? Will it ruin my setup?
Thank you in advance,
Elias

The OTA update will not flash .
If u want/need OTA updates to work you need to be stock.

You can also update via FlashFire if you are rooted with SuperSu. It unroots your phone, restores standard recovery, flashes OTA, restores custom recovery and restores root. All automatically.

thank you so much , i tried with flashfire but for some reason it does not detect my OTA

If you don't know where the OTA is you can download it from the Google images website. Then you will be able to locate it easily. But I don't know what's going to happen with your mods. They might need to be reinstalled.

Thanks for the info guys.

Gear live update 5.0.2

I have the gear live and twrp. My watch got a notification that said that the update was downloaded and to update. When I start the update, my watch rebooted into twrp. I keep getting an error and the update doesn't install. Does anyone else have this problem, and know how to solve this issue?
I have the same problem, the watch becomes verry hot but I can't complete the update.
I am waiting for a solution. Other whise I have to visit a Samsung service point tomorrow.
Which version of twrp you guys have? I didn't got this error but I was unsuccessfully trying to install the 5.1.1 update trough modified zip I had lots of error that basically were stating that my watch was a different model and I suspect it could be due to last TWRP version. Still to confirm.
I solved using the recovery from tool here in forum to put the stock 4.4w image and did the updates OTA (the last 5.1.1 update was with sideload through original recovery butnI guess if i waited a few days it would be done OTA)

Yea, I have a similar problem. Whenever I try to install using automatic update, it just fails with "something went wrong. Try again?".

Hmm so, that backup file I gave you didn't work for you? Could please check something on your watch for me please. I need to know what stock recovery build you have.Mine is stuck on the older version no matter what update I install. Thanks.

Unfortunately no and thanks for yiur patience, I posted on the other thread.. I got so fed up that I flashed a stock image. And went from there since beginning and did it via sideload!
I used the gear live restore tool that is here from tomsgt if i remeber.i did all updates with everything stock . But after update to 5.1.1 i flashed again twrp (but not the latest version this time) and rooted the phone. I'm on travel until Tuesday and i didn't even brought watch. So incan check out ont Tuesday anything you need.

Oh I didn't see that message. Did you install stock image from Samsung Gear Live Restore Tool v2? Thats the one I flashed and ota fails no matter what. Can you check if you stock recovery was updated when you did OTA update? It says the build name when you boot into it from bootloader. (where you did the sideloading)

Yup, I flashed full stock image and waited for 2 OTA updates until 5.0.2 and then sideloaded the original 5.1.1 in the original recovery, however I dunnl if this 2 first OTA have updated recovery too..
I can't check much right now because the watch is not with me until Tuesday, if even after twrp flash I did after the 5.1.1 update is still mentioned the original there in bootloader I will let you know as soon as I arrive on Tuesday.

First you have to unlock the bootloader and download the file and place it in the root of your internal memory.
Now go to the stock recovery and select the option install from sdcard and select the file you downloaded.
That's it, it will start installing and reboot the phone. Then you got the latest update.
Happy flashing.......

You shouldn't have to unlock bootloader if it's stock OTA.

Why do we still have the same questions about this? It's maddening.
You CAN NOT sideload an OTA if your OS has been modified. PERIOD. That's it, that's all there is to it. You can apply the OTA in ADB on a stock un-messed with unit. If you've modified it, then you can't.
It's been this way since last year.

Is it possible to make a flashable zip with the contents of an OTA and another one with the contents of the stock rom so all you do is flash the stock rom, then flash the OTA zip?
The OTA zip would have to be modified so it allows you to flash it thru TWRP.
Or maybe it's just easier to flash the newer stock rom over the old one as a ZIP?
There's already a thread for this. Why make a new one?

Hi, is possible to install this update with the TWRP Recovery or using sideload? I Have a custom rom and it's very slow to comeback official firmware and then flash this. Sorry for my very bad english
Thanks. BTW has anyone tried this method of manually installing the OTA?

Go back to stock firmware and stock recovery, update to .184 or newer first, then flash MM .134 firmware.

It's normal for stock firmware lol, not only Asus; Samsung has done the same thing too on some July updates (with August 1 security patch)

I expected more features . Besides there are still bugs .
Multiple window is much desired feature . The phone screen size is big and multiple screen would help do multiple task at the same time .

I got the update yesterday, tried updating it automatically (i.e not manually flashing it with recovery, rather than clicking install now button on phone). I was using eng.stk twrp everything went well, except when I went to recovery to flash supersu after the update , it had replaced twrp with oos recovery.

Does anyone tried SD card as internal storage??
I wonder why nobody is making a custom ROM or enhanced ROM based on the official OOS...?? Because I saw on OP3 thread there are several custom ROM are based on official OOS releases for OP3 and they are really good and stable.
when I tried to install the rom with TWRP, it has an error: "error executing updater binary in zip"... somebody can help me?

Read the post.
If you are on OOS2, you need the OOS 2 stock recovery to flash it.
After that you can re install special TWRP that work on OO3 only.
Is the battery life better than 2.2.3?

hey everyone,
I recently purchased a used Nexus 5x that is running fine so far. my only problem is i get the message "internal problem, contact manufacturer" after every boot.
the phone is running android 7.0 (NDR90S) and the seller told me he trie to root and flash custom firmware but somehow the boot loader always locked itself. Now its not possible to perform an OTA update to 8.0 (get it offered all the time).
According to the developer setting the Bootloader is unlocked. I read that it should be fine to flash the vendor.image. Is this correct so far?

You may want to do a full firmware flash. Simply get the latest firmware image from googles website for this device and run the installer script that comes with it. You'll be wiped clean and hopefully any issues are fixed. (You'll need to unlock the bootloader again if you plan to root or flash custom roms).
