No, ADB sideload will fail. 8.1 DP2 is on a newer branch than December 8.1 stable. You could install via fastboot or wait until Google pushes the OTA for preview users.

I think @mr.joshuanice is right. Opt out from the beta program.
And then, among all methods to install the update I would recommend to flash the factory image so that you can start from a very clean environment.
I can't provide link here on XDA right now because I'm a too young XDA member (not so young in the real-life however, )
By the way, look for android factory images in google and you will find download link as well as instruction for flashing.

Factory images with January security patches are out since yesterday. Why don't you flash it?
Another option is to use the FULL OTA update. This method does not require to unlock the bootloader and, consequently, to wipe all your data.
If I were you I would go for the factory image with a clean flash

By full OTA you mean sideload via adb?

Yes the full OTA is installed via adb sideload. And it does not need an unlocked bootloader.
Look for "full ota Android O" in Google and you will find the page and the instructions.

I had the OTA to 8.1 notification. I rebooted my phone and now it's gone and it shows as I'm being up to date. I want it back!

OT
As a side note for all people who do not want to unlock the bootloader. Please consider at least to:
* activate developer options (tapping 7 times on the build number under phone information)
* enter developer options and activate 1) Debug USB and 2) Enable OEM Unlock
As you probably know, the nexus 6p is subject to the bootloop of death. It is hardware based and, when it happens, the only way to give a second life to the Nexus 6p is to flash a special boot.img (or kernel) that enable only 4 cores (over 8). You can perform this procedure only if you can unlock the bootloader. Hence, only if you have previously enabled the two options above (debug USB and Enable OEM Unlock).

Google is really messing up with OTAs. You should consider to manually flash a factory image or to adb sideload a full OTA (available on the official website).
Same situation for me, i get ota 8.1 ~ 10 December then 8.1 dp2 ota. And for now no ota I am still on security update from November...
One question, if im rooted, can i flash full OTA with flashfire??
sideload the DP2 to Final ota (Dec patch).
Then unenroll your device from beta, you will get an update (Jan patch)

I think you'll find userdata and cache won't change throughout the lifecycle of nougat. Through something like 14 MM updates they never changed (same MD5) until Nougat came (where they did change) and then through 2 releases they haven't changed.

Comparison of Android Updates
Do It A Your Own Risk. I am not responsible if you make a mistake.
I found this method on the Internet and I applied it to my phone right now:
(WITH THIS METHOD YOU WILL NOT LOSE ROOT, CUSTOM RECOVERY)
1.Download the ZIP.
2.Download FlashFire.
3.Open flashfire and accept for root access etc etc...
4.click "+" button and click to "flash firmware package" and find the ZIP.
5.Wait for a couple o seconds or 2mins, and then uncheck the "Recovery" (if you don't want to lose the custom recovery) and "Data" (maybe on your device will be already unchecked so keep it unchecked if you don't want to lose your data) and then I clicked the "ν" button.
6.Click "Flash". Your screen will be black for a minute and then you will see a progress bar at the bottom of your screen and log of FlashFire what installs on your device.
7.When it finish flashing, your device will be automatically reboot.
8.Wait a couple of minutes (approximately 3-6 mins).
9.Your device is running the latest Android Version with the latest Security patches and you have also root back....

My build number changed to N5D91L after the November update, not NRD91N. How come?
In the past there were some different builds for different countries with a different radio.img. So where do you come from?
I live in the UK.
Edit: And my radio is still 2.6.33.2.14.
Hm...I've only found a lot of japanese sites (f.e. Y!Mobile (is that yahoo?) if I search for this build. Don't know if there is a coherence.
N5D91L is 7.0.0_r21 while NRD91N is 7.0.0_r15. Probably a quick hotfix on the unfixed dirtycow exploit + other fixes . Too lazy to check the real changes on git.
Since some of us is still waiting for the ota by phases and by the time we are getting it, google already roll out N5D91L. Thus the mysterious build update emerged. The others on NRD91N will get it or probably not, until December.

Nevermind, apparently it's a regular build - see: http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-5x/help/n5d91l-strange-android-build-t3500378
November OTA patch has new tag:
Just captured this from my 5X.
Source: google/bullhead/bullhead:7.0/NBD90W/3239497:user/release-keys

So looks like the new build is not NRD91N but N5D91L.
okay guys so this is the dilemma...
i was rooted on 7.1.1 dp1 with the flashable pixel zip. I received the DP2 OTA somehow, tried to install but it just restarted the phone.. nothing changed.
I eventually got bored of it and tried flashing the resurrection ROM. however, i got stuck on the boot screen. so i unrooted and flashed the factory image off googles devs site. Now i want to go update to DP2, i have enrolled in the beta but still nothing comes up. i have unenrolled and enrolled heaps of times and nothing is happening.
thanks for any help
It's not immediate. Enroll in the beta again. Wait a couple of hours. Eventually it'll pop up. Reboot after a few hours if you still don't have it.
If all else fails, the DP2 image is available online at developer.android.com/preview/download.html if you don't get the OTA. Just download from the developer site, extract, put phone into fastboot mode, and then run the flashall.bat. This will flash your phone back to stock on developer preview 2. The DP2 build number is NPF26F (You said you had an image from the dev site, check the build number).

Nope! There's no need to be rooted! You do, however, need to have an unlocked bootloader. But I'd imagine you'd have that if you're flashing roms :laugh:
And ah! I'm on the same page as you now about the google developers factory images site. With the android developers site I posted, just scroll down on that page and find the nexus 6P link and download that! This will wipe your data though.
Your problem originally that caused the DP2 update to not work was the pixel mod. If you have that flashed, the ota update doesn't work. I had the same problem. But the good news is, you can get pixel mods for DP2 too! I'm using one too.

Looks to be a minor update, but at least they're still thinking about us
States EMUI version 5.0.1
Android version 7.0
Android security patch level August 5, 2017
So far, the main change I have noticed is the addition of a "Moving Picture" mode to the camera app, which is similar to the Live Photos you would find on iOS.
Also, it seems they have added an automatic video creation "Highlights" feature to the Gallery app, utilizing Quik video editor. Not sure if this was already included in previous versions.

U have stock recovery and boot right? Flash the recovery and boot image of B385 and then from recovery factory reset ur phone. After that try and see if u can update ur device. Also if u wish to lock ur bootloader then hit download latest full package.

Well I got the phone about a week ago and just activated my new tmo sim card last night to get cell service on it so I'm probably not the best judge of whether any performance changes occurred. Based on the change log I wasn't expecting much though.
FYI I'm still completely stock, locked bootloader for now if that made any difference in the delivery of the update.

Thanks for the explanation. This is the route I had to take. I have FRD-L04. I was on B385 with TWRP and Magisk 14.0. Unrooting and flashing boot.img and recovery.img from 385 did not help to install the new update. I keep getting the same error of Package failed. No matter what I seemed to try nothing worked.
So, this sucks, but, I factory reset. Then RE-locked bootloader. Then, I had to download *latest full package* otherwise I still received same error. But, now I am on B388 and i'm going to try flashing TWRP and installing Magisk now.
Live photos seems interesting. Pretty excited about that.
Question to anyone who got the update, any changes in battery life?

Does anyone know how to clear any rootless navbar customizations? Essentially clearing it back to stock, but without factory resetting. I thought I reset it through Custom Navbar but now my Navbar keeps defaulting back to the old 3 buttons (the new gesture navbar won't stay)

"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."

Do I have to do a factory reset , if I'm rooted on Android 9 to archive android 10 without any problems ?
I have just got the ota update, I'm updating from beta 6 and it's saying the update size is 41mb, is this correct?

No, just uninstall magisk or flash stock boot.img. once that is done, you should OTA just fine.

On reddit they say that coming from beta the update file is only this small.

Well I knew banking apps would not work on the beta but now I'm on the stable release and my banking app still will not even open, but of a nightmare really as I rely on it.

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!
Enjoying the dark mode

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).
