I recently accidentally overwrote my os when installing twrp after having updated to 8.1 Oreo and forgetting to re install magisk manager on my rooted phone. I re flashed the Tissot version of 8.0 and the phone factory reset after it had a fatal error . I then rebooted the phone and set it up. Then I reintalled magisk. I then checked if I could update to 8.1 and for the past 2 weeks I haven't received it. I tried forcing it but nothing happens. Any help?
Follow your name's meaning. Update has been delayed due to bugs
the update is up again.

i got a new august patch update, it downloaded fully, it started installing, after installing my phone not booting
You can't install official updates over a non stock bootloader phone. Restore a TWRP backup
Hi,
since I've rooted my phone it seems that OTA updates are broken. Does somebody know if I can fix OTA updates by flashing stock rom with mi flash tool? Or do others have problems with March security patch, too?
Last night, I received the OTA for March (after I updated Google Play Services manually from apkmirror). It couldn't install the update, gave me the error. I restarted the phone, tried again, same thing. This is a fix but it takes time : download and flash the february firmware (ran the .bat script, I don't really like mi flash). After that, you can update without issues.
Hi guys,
I recently fixed 6p with bootloop problem. Currently it's running latest 8.1 android version and im getting notifications about latest security patch. So my question is: how can I apply that update without bricking the phone. Will OTA update bricks the phone again?
Updating via OTA would put your phone right back into a bootloop. In order to update from now on you'll have to flash the updates manually by downloading the factory images from Google and installing each piece separately via fastboot, EXCEPT for the kernel (boot.img) and recovery (recovery.img).
Thanks
Thanks very much for clarifyng this. I have downloaded the latest April update from google but it still offers some 60MB update. I guess I'll wait for May release and update manually then. Many thanks again!
Firmware Finder shows there's a new update available for my BTV-W09. It's B355 dated 06/05/18. It's a small OTA, only 190mb. Has anybody installed it? Does anybody know what's in it?
Firmware Finder provides the changelog. It has the June security patches.
No netflix hd update? ****!
How install? I don't remember. [emoji28]. Thanks in advance.

Anyone have any luck applying this update with TWRP recovery? Looks like it is going to require a flash back to stock to apply?
I was only able to install it with stock. Even then, it had to be the full install, not the OTA update. That install locks the bootloader and unroots; so I then had to re-unlock, which of course wipes the entire device, and then restore from a Google and Titanium backup. Not sure updating is worth the pain. really.
My rooted tab is now threatening to install this update when I reboot. Does anybody remember how to stop a firmware update when it wants to update on reboot?
I don't think there's much to worry about as if you're rooted with TWRP, it'll just reboot into TWRP and wait for you to manually apply it, if you can find it on the file system.
I'm currently trying to apply B356 which was recently released. This minor update contains the July 2018 Google security patches. The last time I did this from B351, this is what I did:
Via TWRP, Installed the 2 full OTA zip files for B352 downloaded with firmwarefinder. This replaced TWRP with the stock recovery but did not wipe my data.
Rebooted, and applied B353 via the normal OTA through settings. This installed the B353 full package (2.52GB).
Reinstalled TWRP with fastboot (twrp_BTV-W09_5_greatslon.img)
Booted to TWRP & installed Magisk
Re-enabled the 5GHz wifi radio
However, this doesn't seem to be working with B356 thus far. Installing the Firmwarefinder zip files failed (at least update.zip did, I didn't try the other two) so I installed the FF B352 images mentioned above. However, applying the stock OTA through settings wants to install 3 patches (B353, June 18, July 18) of size 786MB. They downloaded successfully but then it fails to apply during the reboot.
Anyone else have any luck? What did you wind up doing?
Thanks!
Every time I've applied an update, I ended up locking the bootloader and then having the phone wiped when I unlock the bootloader. I'd love to find a way to update without locking the bootloader. If you find a way to that with this update, please let post how you did it!
Helpp!! I am running my STOCK ROM Android Pie March Update 2019. Previously, I decided to root my phone via Magisk, and then I unroot it today because I need to get the OTA update so I unrooted it.
I selected from the Magisk, restore images because I think when you choose completely uninstall you're going to bootloop because you're going to flash a stock and clean boot.img from the March 2019 Update.
After unrooting it, my phone is not a rooted, i even checked it via Root Checker on playstore and the result is not rooted.
Now, I am trying to install April 2019. I tried to factory reset my phone via settings and still the OTA update wont work.
It says -> Couldn't update, installation problem.
Would you help me please?? Thanks!
I had the same problem flashed the latest update from here via twrp and now my phone is updated.
