I just got a prompted notification that 2.3.2 system update is now downloaded and verified in my phone. Just need to go ahead and ok the install/update on my phone. Not sure if most or all are getting this?
Should I? LOL
more info:
"Android 2.3.2
601kb
This system update from Google contains important bug fixes."
Go for it.
This is probably the update that includes the major SMS bug fix. Samsung posted to their official twitter account that and update to address that is coming very soon.
It looks like v2.3.2 is the one.
Funny thing though, I never had problems with the SMS bug. I have sent/received SMS (2k+). And when I got the notification, I just pulled the battery off to check my S/N to register in the Samsung website. LOL
Is there any other bug/fixes with this updates other than the SMS bug?
If you're rooted, you might want to wait and see if it's safe to do it (ie., doesn't break root) unless you're confident on how to get it back. The last update screwed with Recovery and gave some people some slight grief for a short period.
Just rooted
Wouldn't you know it? After I just finish rooting using the step by step guide, the first thing that pops up is that there is an update to install. So my question is, will installing this update kill my root? Or any other negative consequences for my newly-rooted SNS if I update to 2.3.2?
Just rebooted after update, seems that at least the browser got some kind of lagfix, for example www.n4g.com.
"Your system is currently up to date."
hmmm.... what about people on Custom ROMS ?
i check the Settings > About > System Updates
and there's nothing it says
"Your system is currently up to date."
Without thinking I chose to install it while being rooted and not backing up. After it rebooted it froze (when it couldn't find a recovery I'm guessing.) I pulled the battery, let it reboot, and I'm still 2.3.1 and rooted. Just FYI

Often one have to wait untill the devs implement the update into the custom rom.
Generally once you're on a custom rom, you're best to wait for the rom dev to give you guidance.

Not sure without being able to open the update file and see what it actually does.
IF you're going to try it. Have a nandroid backup made of your system as it is right now, and have a copy of CWM recovery handy to reflash via fastboot.
You'll probably have to re-root if you can even get the OTA to stick (like the one post above that says it didn't...)
so, back to stock recovery before update?
swype
FYI, swype did not work after update, had to reinstall, now works fine.
How do I get this update?
Made a check for updates in my NS, and I got none.
Still in 2.3.1 here.
Would those of you who get it, if you have a chance, please run the logcat on your phone BEFORE updating and try to catch the url so we can get a manual link for it:
in order to extract the url for the system update, we need to run alogcat from the market, then when the update notification appears look in your logs for a url that says something like clients.google . You can install alogcat, then set filter to clients.google

It's going to roll out slowly, just like the 2.3.1 and Market updates did. I don't think all the checkins in the world will speed it up by any significant amount.
What we impatient types need is someone who is offered the update to grab the url so we can just manually download it.

No one knows yet! Have to get it to see what it changes (breaks).
I rooted my device today and as expected, OTA updates aren't able to install naturally anymore. Following the advice of several netizens, I installed FlashFire. As instructed, I downloaded the OTA update and then opened FlashFire to install it from there.
But I am getting this error message, "A system update (OTA) has been detected, but the Update Engine binaries could not be extracted from boot/recovery. The update cannot be handled."
There is literally no information that I could dig up to solve this problem. Any ideas?

In A/B partition, the update installs on the other partition so that the one you're using still works and once the process completes you just need to reboot. Which is why you have to boot into the other partition by flashing twrp using fastboot mode and then download the updates. This will install the updates on your current partition which you've rooted and you will have to root again after updating.

You went a little farther than where I am stuck actually. I haven't gotten upto the point where I am given the option to reboot and apply update. I am sure you are aware - there is a two step installation process after the update is downloaded and before that reboot to apply button appears.
The problem is - I am stuck on the Step 1 of 2 part. Halfway through this step, Google Play Services stop working and the progress bar transforms into a fluid bar and this keeps happening over and over. It's a glitch, in short.
And so, that's why I had hoped to skip the hassle of direct OTA installation altogether by using FlashFire and let it do the work of handling the update. But then I get this stupid error.
If you know of a way I could flash the update from inside TWRP or something, by accessing the locally downloaded update files, then I'm all for it. But some people here have gone to the extent of reflashing entire ROMs (worth gigabytes) and then re-rooting the device just for a security patch. This seems like somewhat of an overkill method.
As for going into the other partition and installing from there, when I switch partitions, I see that I have to redownload the entire patch all over again. What's worse is that, my WiFi and Hotspot refuse to start in partition 'b' (weird glitch again), which is why partition 'a' and/or FlashFire is all I have got at the moment.

I was nowhere near you though. The security patch got downloaded but since I've rooted it, flashfire denied to help me out with the update. And so with a little help from this forum itself, I got to know that we'll have to start from the beginning and download both the security patches and install them while on partition 'b'.
This is just stupid as of now than convenient but unfortunately for now that's all we have in our hands. Devs are working hard for an alternate I'm sure, coz this A/B partition thing came from google(pixel) itself.

This is a little confusing though, what you said - isn't FlashFire a root app by nature? So how can it refuse to help you out after asking for the same permissions that it requires to run?
And yeah, I have come to that conclusion myself too. This may sound noobish but I couldn't exactly find the security patch for the October update of Mi A1 anywhere on the internet. Have you or anyone found it or do we have to wait?
And just to clarify - when you say download the security patches, you mean just the security patch itself as a 'zip' file or something like that, right? Not the entire ROM, I hope. As in, if I were to download the security patch file of the October update, it would be approximately a 118 MB file, right?

Umm, yes. I meant I got stuck and flashfire showed the same error you faced, find it attached below.
Also, yes that's what I meant by security patch but if you get into the other partition, which still will be on the August patch, you'll have to download the September patch(1+gb) and then the October one(118mb). If it doesn't work, you'll have to download the rom file from miui.com flash it and then update to October patch.
This A/B partitioning is nowhere near a feature but looks more like an extended road and a U turn to get back to the same place. Only the ones who wont root their phones will be happy.
Facing the same issue as you guys. I can live without the October patch for a while. What do you guys think? Will flashgire be updated to accommodate these updates in the future or will TWRP be the way to go?
when i try to update via settings it says installation error. looks like i will have to be on september patch for now. any other way to update?
Why don't you simply unroot, install the update and then root again ?
I did that way and only cost me a couple of minutes...
Minimum effort to reflash firmware to September, download October and reroot october: 45 mins
Not sure how you were able to do it that fast but I'll stay on September until something easier comes around
me also waiting solution for this problem

Any help please...!!
ok now.A mistake in process...!!! :fingers-crossed:
Just announced. Android P beta is live. https://www.google.com/android/beta#devices
Just got the OTA on my Pixel XL on 8.1
I'm in if someone finds out how to root it. Or at least how we can install it via TWRP or adb. Looks promising. The IO Keynote is kinda fun. Hope more stuff would be "available now" instead of *soon or *this year...
Wondering if tethering goes through a provisioning check or if we need to wait for a root exploit first
beta wont install with custom kernel, uninstalled magisk, no TWRP, but download still wont start.
It will install over the Dev 1 preview. I unrooted, signed up for the beta and hit check for updates and it was there.

Sorry, can't tell you that since I am waiting for someone kind enough to provide instructions on how to install this with an unlocked bootloader/twrp/magisk. But since full image downloads for this DP2 are not live yet, as far as I know at least, I guess I'll have to wait some more.
And yeah, I feel like they used to show more new stuff "out now" in previous years. But the last few times they announced a whole lot of stuff coming *soon, over the next weeks, months, summer, fall, or whenever. It used to be way more fun for me to get a "new version of Android every year with lots of new features" instead of this gradual roll-out of features. At least that's my opinion.

ymmv, but I was on 8.1 April with twrp/mag16.3. Opted into Beta program and P-dp2 ota downloaded and installed without removing magisk. Note that I had not made any build.prop changes etc.
Once on dp2, fastbooted twrp, reboot recovery- installed full twrp, rebooted recovery -installed full magisk16.4. Magisk rooted fine and tether enabler module seems to work.

You can grab the original preview image, edit out the -w in the flash all bat file and flash it. Then sign up for the Beta and grab the OTA. Then reroot.
Will it be the same way as the small security updates?
I.e. (from Magisk) install to inactive slot before restarting the phone.
Also, Android 10 has the faster security updates feature which installs them without restarting the phone. So when I do get Android 10, and receive a security update, won't it directly install and remove root even before I reboot through magisk?
I think clean flash should be the best option (I'm talking about the update from 9 to 10).

I've just clean this thread slightly. This is a thread in the Q&A forum, which allows to ask EVERYTHING that is somehow related to this device. There hasn't been a similar thread yet i.e. it was fine to create one.
If someone doesn't like the topic, some questions or answers simply continue your journey and refrain from posting here.

Guys don't expect things to work with the new update immediately. Android 10 has a file system rehaul so stuffs gonna work differently. That being said I'm excited. I'm just sad I won't get to use desktop mode since our USB Cs arent new or powerful enough to use as an HDMI out *sadfate*

Before you do any of this make sure you disable any magisk modules you may have
Do local upgrade method but don't reboot.
Then go to magisk and select modules click the plus and find twrp installer zip once that's done.
Choose install to inactive slot after ota
Then reboot.

Hello, when you say to disable the Magisk modules, should you simply uncheck the modules installed in Magisk or press "uninstall" and "restore images" on the Magisk home page?

I prefer to ask to be on, because some also do like this: uninstall Magisk (without reboot), installation of the update (still without reboot) Magisk installation from the manager and reboot! I know it's more for OTAs but in the end I found on the forums that some processes like that for any ROM.
Anyway thank you for your answer I will try now: D
Edit : It does not work for me, nothing starts and it tells me directly "Failure of the installation of the home system" when I try by the local upgrade I would do with twrp this does not matter
Let's just disregard this silly post please.

Can someone please paste a link to the 11.0.4.4 global installation file. My Oneplus8 pro is rooted and as such I cannot download it from system updates. I tried to fastboot an unpatched boot but I couldn't get WiFi to turn on. Accordingly, I'd like an alternate download option for 11.0.4.4 global.
Being rooted should not prevent the update. Otherwise download "oxygen updater" from the play store.

In my experience being rooted does prevent updates especially if you've flashed the patched boot image to both slots. In the past I've had his name issue. I got the update to stick when I fastboot flash Boot the original stock boot Image.
Have not seen the full 11.0.4.4 global zip anywhere yet....
I uninstalled Magisk, took the update and then reinstalled Magisk before rebooting. Seems to have worked OK.

I think I'll just live with 2.2 until oxy updated has 4.4. From what I've read 4.4 doesn't really do much. OnePlus sucks anymore.
PS I was finally able to download 2.2 again and I install it (via system update) which got rid of root so I downloaded and installed 4.4. Haven't rooted it yet.

4.4 has improved my battery life somehow.. Seemingly a lot better than it was.
In regards to there updates, I'd say (if you're rooted or not) to use oxygen updater, it's an absolutely rock solid app.
Plus they tend to release way before OnePlus do for each device.
Installation isn't affected by root, simply disable your modules then when prompted to reboot just don't, click install to inactive slot and you're done.
If you've taken an incremental update then I couldn't help you, personally I'd only stick to full updates.
4.4 has definitely improved things for me.

Oxygen updater finally has the 4.4 11 AA. I have payload dumped it and tried to patch the boot.img but magisk is failing. I cannot seem to get the canary channel so I'm using the latest beta but it isn't working. I cannot believe that nothing is working for me. Has anyone else succeeded?

I've been on 11.0.4.4 for about a week now, but I did it using the OTA, not with the full upload. I've been doing it this way for a while, just like I did with my Pixel 2XL.
Anyway, I downloaded the full upload from OnePlus's page a few minutes ago to test it out, and I was able to patch the boot image after extracting it from the payload.bin using the latest beta magisk. I did it on my Pixel 2XL, that's really the only reason I keep that phone around now, besides it being a backup phone just in case my OP8P craps out.

Great idea! I never thought of patching the stock boot.img on another device. It worked and now I'm finally rooted. Thank you for sharing your idea! BTW my former phone was a Pixel2XL. Was that the best phone ever? Still is but I sold it when I bought my 8pro. Big mistake!
