Hi,
Its the fifth of March and Google released a new Update
Build: OPM1.171019.021
Bootloader: 8996-012001-1711291800
Radio: 8996-130091-1710201747
-> Changes
-> Download
-> Source
-> old Images

If you look at the Pixel XL, it looks like the N is for Verizon.

I received the NJH47B update. I'm in Canada on Koodo mobile

Who have a Google Play Devices from Germany/Europa and can tell me which one I have to download

I have a Pixel from Google, using it with AT&T in the U.S. Completely stock, but unlocked bootloader. I received the NJH47B OTA.

Did anyone verify that the 7.1.2 (NJH47B, Jun 2017) is for Verizon ?

What's the point of fully stock but unlocked bootloader? Are you at least rooted?

Dude, can this be used on a rooted pixel via flashfire?

Hi guys,
So it's the first Monday in the month and Google release the June security update. But there are 4 different versions:
- NHG47N -> no description
- NJH34C -> Deutsche Telekom
- NJH47B -> no description
- NKG47L -> T-Mobile, Fi carriers, and Rogers

NHG 27N can be root ?

From Droid Life: "The notes here for each Pixel update indicate that NHG47N is for Verizon models, NJH34C is for Deutsche Telekom, NKG47L is for T-Mobile, Fi users, and Rogers, while NJH47B is the generic build for everyone else."

This is the first time there is a T-mobile specific firmware right? I just switched to them from Verizon 2 months ago. Does anyone know what's different about the T-Mobile and Verizon firmwares?

Has anyone on Project Fi received the OTA yet? I have a Verizon Pixel, using it on Fi. Current May 5th version is the O build.

O builds don't get the monthly security updates at same time as stable. You'll get it when the next preview/beta is ready.
Sorry, I think i read that wrong. I meant Android O. You mean N2G47O or whatever it is. I'll go hide back under my rock now.

Lol. Yes, that build, thanks. I almost posted the full image version thinking it looked like Android O I was asking about. I usually get the OTAs right away. I have a 5x on Android O which obviously is unlocked, so I might flash back to the May update to see if that device will get it. That's also on Fi but data only. The Pixel I have now is bootloader locked so all I can do is flash the full OTA sideload but I really don't want to do that. Not yet anyway.

You made some change while rotted that it doesn't like. Best way is to clean it up once and for all. Run the flash all bat file from the full image.
But edit out the -w from the flashall bat file first. That will save your data, apps and settings. Then you will be all set going forward fir updates.

New Verizon Update NMF26U

Looks like there is a new update coming.
https://9to5google.com/2016/12/05/android-7-1-1-update-ota-nexus-pixel-december/
Interesting that it is coming to Verizon pixels but no factory images from Google yet. Curious to see if both models will always have the same updates or if sometimes Verizon models will have specific ones.
This is just the january patch due to be released on the 2nd of Jan

I'm guessing because of the New Year's Holiday the push was delayed. I would suspected it would have come out today. So if it's not out yet, then I'm maybe next Monday. That's if they stick with their current deployment scheme.

I'm on NMF26O. Nothing shows when I click check for updates on my phone. It's Verizon phone with root running on TMobile. Should I go ahead and sideload NMF26V?
and "NMF26V" is international?
thats the question, how can i identfy which one is my OTA file from Europe, version NMF26O
Not sure which version to use. Google phone on Verizon.

Probably U.
In the past on the Nexus devices the earlier letter is the general release and the latter was for some specific carrier. My bet is the V version is a continuation of the Q fork from last month for some overseas carriers.
Edit. Over in the XL forum VZ customers and Vodephone are getting U OTA.
Just a heads up, I don't know if I did something wrong but I sideloaded the V update and now lost root. Let the phone boot after updating, fastbooted TWRP, deleated fstab, flashed SR5 and nothing but bootloops. I can reflash the V OTA and get my phone back but can't get root. At least not with SR5. Going to try flashing the U factory image (if it will let me) and see if that fixes it.
Edit:
Reflashed the V OTA, booted TWRP, flashed SR4, deleted fstab, flashed SR4 again, and phone boots fine with root.

I got the OTA U on a Verizon phone activated on Project Fi. I'm thinking unless specifically you know to use V then the U update is the way to go if you want to sideload.
Google updated the image site, V is for Europe/O2 and U is for everyone else.

Well since you have their ear, perhaps you can tweet them to update the OTA images with descriptions. Only the full images have that. Not that it's hard to deduce but since some people sideload the ota rather than wait it might be nice.

looks like a new VZW OTA is out

Well it's that time again VZW put out a new OTA anyone taken this yet what does it fix and is it worth it and I think all of us will be wondering is will it lock your bootloader Its unlocked
Me too, I got an OTA notification today, update size is 823.5 MB, don't know what build it is.
I have VZ Pixel, unlocked, stock rooted NMF260 with VZ service. Is it safe to install updates ? Please advice.
Thanks in advance.

@Shiftydogit, @azn6929 got hold of a screenshot? If yes, pls share.

So one of you said you are on nmf260. That is December. So i doubt this is a "new" update, you are just behind. Google only releases on the first Monday of the month. VZ uses the same exact releases. There is no special VZ version.
Update away.

You'd just download them then sideload the OTA via recovery or you can flash it via fastboot/ADB but if you have TWRP installed fastboot will replace it with stock recovery
OK so with update my phone lost TWRP and root other than that bootloader is still unlocked and everything seems fine
Also build number changed after update OK then
If you are getting a new Verizon OTA, it is late. My Verizon Pixel updated to NOF26V (Feb security patch), weeks ago. NOF26V is the most current image for Verizon Pixels.
I updated. New build is NOF26V. Everything seems to be fine. But root is gone. lol

I'm fully stock Verizon model locked bootloader on Project Fi. I believe that if you're on the beta it's a "later" build than the OTA 7.1.2 and you will not receive it. You will have to wait for an OTA from beta to release sometime in the future, or if you want rollback to the 7.1.1 March release and wait for the April OTA or sideload it. But that will wipe your device and you might not want to do that.

Update: Your theory could be correct that beta version could be newer and the phone needs to wait for a beta build. When beta program ends, then phone will automatically get public build or I can cancel the enrollment myself.
Understood! When I enrolled into beta program a week ago, my phone installed: NPG47I. I thought that when public version (7.1.2) is released, the phone with beta software should get it too. Before I enrolled into beta, the phone was running 7.1.1 and after getting into beta, the phone received 7.1.2.
Hi all, sorry if this is a silly question but if I'm rooted with TWRP should I not do an OTA update?
If I do it will it go through fine and I will just lose those mods?

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.

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.

Worked fine for me. If you have modded your rom, then OTA will often fail.
I've been sideloading the OTA updates for months. Since Google made the check for updates function actually do something, thought I would go that route this time. It worked and immediately offered me an update. How can I verify that it's going to install NGI77B and not N6F27M? I'm on Verizon and currently on NGI55D.
I tried capturing a bug report and looking for the OTA link in the file but am not finding it. Maybe I should just sideload it.

T-mo users, looks like we will never get an automatic update. Have you side-loaded the latest 7.1.1? Any issues?

Using T-mobile network via Ting - no issues seen so far with the sideloaded Oct 2017 OTA update.

I bought N6 in October last year and have been using custom ROMs on it since day one.
First PureNexus and now currently DirtyUnicorns.
I plan on moving to LOS once nightlies start rolling out.
LOS == Lineage OS?

I was getting monthly security update notifications on my Nexus 6 while using Verizon, however that stopped since moving to T-Mobile in April/2017.
I'm staying stock for now, because it seems easiest to maintain Android Pay, Snapchat compatibility, etc.
Does anyone have a recommendation on which build to use if I sideload? Would that be "N6F27M" since the other October release states "Verizon" ?
EDIT: I went ahead and sideloaded N6F27M, which seems to be working fine with T-Mobile thus far.

Does N6F27M include security patch against new hole in WPA ?
No, it will be in November security patch but it's not sure that Nexus 6 will receive it...
I'm on Fi but my phone doesn't give me the opportunity to update N6F27M, it does not show that there is an OTA available.
Could it be that the phone was a Verizon overstock which I flashed to NGI55D manually when I first bought it?
I suppose I will have to sideload the OTA.
Edit: Never mind, it finally came through.
November security patch is out for pixel and 2015 nexus, no new build for our good old Shamu so we will have to keep it with Krack security breach or install custom rom...
