I think it's too soon after DP2. I think it'll be later this month or even January.

It's certainly possible. Just my opinion. I don't know why they'd release a DP2 and only wait a week to release the final, but they could and then they'll likely release 8.1.1 next month.
Even if it comes out today I might wait and see what everyone else is saying about it and any bugs before I upgrade. I don't have time to tinker with my phones as much as I used to. We'll see if I can resist, though, but minimally I'll use Titanium Backup to back up all my user app data and sync to Google Drive, backup things I mean to keep from my internal storage and make sure all my photos/videos are synced, then the final nandroid - then I'll have to make the decision as to whether I flash 8.1 clean or use FlashFire to upgrade.
When the user experience may have changed some in a version of Android, sometimes I like to start fresh, besides minimizing any problems that might be due solely to updating while keeping system data.
I was happily surprised I was able to do everything from FlashFire successfully for the November update including re-flashing the Ex Kernel.

No, unrolling right now from beta will give you update for 8.0 stable
Dont bother sideloading from dp2 either, it will fail.
For now we will have to just wait for the smaller ota which takes us from dp2 to 8.1 stable.

You can flash the full image, after removing the -w from the flash all bat file to save data. Then unenroll. Worked fine here.

I haven't unlocked the BL ever since I got nexii/pixels. Never felt the need to ( except when n6p died and needed a workaround).
It's here for me.
Ota is live Pixel Verizon on beta DP2.
OTA Pixel dp2 to final 39,90mb released
Got it today.
So far so good, but I'd really like to find a way to remove the search bar. It's pretty terribly placed.

I'm thinking those of us on beta 7.1.1 may have to roll back to 7.0 to catch OTA but not sure. Good question.. I'm gonna roll back and try and force update, no luck for me thus far on beta 711.. I'll report back later..

Great news tnx a lot for this info
I got the stock 7.1.1 OTA yesterday it's running good.
Hit the check now button to check manually, even if it already did automatically you can find the update manually.
Do anyone know if stock nexus builds support f2fs, and if, for which partitions? (I've done some mild google'ing on the topic with no definite answers).
I'm on the beta still no OTA update even when checking it manually

I checked mine about 100 times manually then downloaded full ota and flashed it using FlashFire app yesterday.
Any word on the Bluetooth issue from DP1+DP2 going away?
I had the beta 7.1, and had not received the official OTA.
my wife also has a 5X, but on 7.0, she got the notification the day after I read that they were rolling it out "in the next few weeks"
so I updated hers, then un-enrolled my device and as soon as I restarted mine I got the notification for 7.1.1
So far life is good with it, nothing major
the 2 things I am most peeved about is no Daydream VR and still have the Google search bar front and center (figuratively)
I enrolled my Nexus 5X in the beta program and when I try to side load the official 7.1.1 release it gives me an error: "Can't install this package over newer build. Installation aborted". Is there any significant change taking about stability and battery from the DP2 and the official release? Thanks!
Got the update to stock 7.0 few days ago. This is the fastest I have ever received any android update.
Did not even check manually for updates as I was not expecting this to be available or few weeks!
Just a heads up that if you check manually for the system update it might find it right away. 5th month in a row this has worked for me first day first try, running 7.1.2 stock OTA now.
It worked right away
I love you

The sideloading error might be because of the newer ADB tools. Try reverting back to platform tools rev.25.0.3.

Hi,
before upgrading to January Oreo patch i was rooted with magisk, when i recived the notification of the update, disabled all the modules and restored the stock boot.img, then i installed magisk on the second slot for rooting the update and i rebooted.
When the device started i realized the is was with oreo december patch
Since then i can't no more receive any update through Ota.
I flashed the first nougat build in a desperate attempt of fixing my device but even with that i solved nothing, currently i'm on 7.8.23 build and it can't find any update.
I've checked my imei is it was in any blacklist but nothing, it's clean.
I've serched everywhere but i haven't found nobody with my same or similar problem.
Please don't answere with something like try to clean google framework data or do a factory reset.
Currently I'm desperate my only hope resides in this community.
thanks so much for any help!

Either wait for the update, because there are yet many people that haven't received yet, or wait for Xiaomi to release latest fastboot rom and flash it with Mi Flash.
The issue isn't the fact that i haven't received the latest January update, i can't receive any ota, as said, even from the first build it don't find anything.
I now, i can flash through fastboot or MiFlashTool but I'm trying to fixing my issue not pretending to forgot it.

The truth is, that Xiaomi temporally suspended all updates due to amount of bugs. Also try restore your phone with Mi Flash and latest firmware version ( Android O) from http://en.miui.com But as I said it is Xiaomi's fault.
Thanks so much for the help,
Yes my imei still there, i know the issue with ota that xiaomi had but i guess that at least i should be able of seeing something, i can understand not receiving the latest update but i don't get anything at all.
I hope there isn't nothing wrong with my phone or at least something i can fix.

Trust me that I feel your pain? Since I was playing around with flashing beta versions of Oreo and hard-bricked my phone twice. After second restoration of the OS no OTAs. So I thought it is because of false OS they put on it. So I flashed official Oreo through MiFlash but nothing yet so far. Meybe you or me can ask Xiaomi what to do or what is happening.

Sure is. It shouldn't be called Android One phone. The phone itself is great but software wise it is horrible. We are still not fully on 8.0 but there's 8.1.1 so Xiaomi should finally do something!

Does anyone have a reasonable explanation as to why one isnt getting certain updates?
The only available update I have is the December 2017 one, but afaik that one is riddled with bugs, and I don't rly feel like risking it. The January never popped up, yet alone february and march one. I've tried all those possible "tricks" with Google Services, from data clean up, signing up for the beta program, factory reset; nothing worked.
I've been told by the support to wait for the batches to arrive; 3 times now.. On the Mi Forums I've been told to sacrifice goats to Chthulu.
My disappointment is immeasurable, and my day is ruined.

You are probably on nougat. You need to update to the december Version (oreo preparation) and then you can update to march from there.
The OTA updates are incremental updates from a specific firmware version so you have to go through the sequence of all the updates. You can't just jump over several in one go.

"Within the .19 image META-INF\com\android\metadata, the post-timestamp UNIX value is 1565300664 which equates to 08/08/2019 @ 9:44pm (UTC).
Within the .20 image META-INF\com\android\metadata, the post-timestamp UNIX value is 1565743352 which equates to 08/14/2019 @ 12:42am (UTC).
Based on one of Google's release tool's code, this value seems to be utilized to determine whether it should perform an incremental or full OTA.
If I'm understanding their upgrade process correctly, the .19 image does not contain the September security patch. The .20 appears to be the full stable release with the September security patch.
It would appear .19 should support an incremental upgrade from the latest Android Pie (9) version, PQ3B.190801.002 but not bring you to the latest September security patch.
This leads me to believe that the .20 image is suitable for almost all OTAs. There may be carrier specific cases that one or the other should be utilized but nothing stands out too clearly within any of the immediately available metadata files."

A factory image is a full replacement - and is meant to replace everything (you'll lose all your data and else that isn't backed up). An OTA is an update - you lose nothing. If you're coming from a STOCK factory image (either a beta of 10 OR 9) and your phone is fine, you want the OTA; otherwise (including AOSP), you want the full factory image.
germany here, installing the update now, takes quite some time for being only 41mb, hope it works
I didn't want to wait for the OTA to be pushed to my phone, so I sideloaded it and the rooted it again with Magisk. My directions are accurate if anyone else wants to sideload the OTA. To be honest, the whole process is faster when you sideload anyway. So it is really a better solution than waiting for the OTA.
The initial boot took about 5 minutes. Don't get impatient and try to mess with the phone. Just let it do it's thing.
Got it 30 mins ago from stock rom over ota (1.1GB) in France.
Install was smooth and fast.
So far so good!

Thank you sic0048! I followed your guide when my Pixel 3a was on 9 and it was smooth. The best instructions I have found and even bookmarked it.
I do have one quick question. I followed your instructions about updating the phone and keeping root, but I lost root after reboot. I probably did something wrong. :silly:
In your instructions under the "Custom Recovery Installation method" you state that TWRP doesn't support Android 10. So how do I root my phone again? Is it safe to use this method or should I use another one of your methods in this tutorial?
After update to 10, I was able to see "Enable DDS" toggle in phone information shortcut.
Now the toggle is gone.
Anyone else has this issue?

I came from RC2 - the update is indeed that little.
However, you will have to wait for a 10-ready build of TWRP; the current TWRP is not ready (of course).
