Can you check if it incremented ARB?
If you update and they have incremented ARB, you will probably never get root.
Someone that has updated needs to dump about for me.

Pretty much none. You put it in download mode do the dump with lgup and nothing gets changed on your phone
Im your man then, just get me a link to download the LGup and tell me how to get in download mode
Yea, there is zero risk.
Grab the patched LG UP (I'll post a link if you can't find it), and use the DUMP option, choose aboot (uncheck everything else if it is checked), and click OK, GO, START (sorry -- I don't use LG UP anymore).
zip up the file, it will be called aboot_COMXX where XX was the COM port that was was assigned, and post a link. It has no private info, so you can post it publicly.

It is ARB1 still, this is great!: https://imgur.com/a/fBlRxN7
A friend from Reddit Lumix1 said that ARB is 1.
ARB 1.. does that mean its safe to upgrade and still have a chance at root?

OTA's and factory images have been posted for November security updare.
https://developers.google.com/android/ota
Three versions:
NDE63U Europe
NDE63V US, except Verizon
NDE63X Verizon
With the BIG warning on the page about be sure to backup all your Photos and Personal data before applying the Update, does this means that it will delete all your data for just applying an OTA update? I understand that for applying the Full Factory images but does it really wipes the data applying just the OTA updates?
Sorry, but this being my first Nexus/Google phone what I know for OTA updates was just a simple process that doesn't delete anything on the phone, and I just want to be sure how it is here before I proceed, thanks in advance.

Yeah, I understand the risks when updating anything so I always do a backup of the most important stuff just in case, but as you know it's not the same to have to do a Full backup/restore. I needed to be sure but if you did it and you are fine then with what I already have backed up I should be fine too, thanks.
I just restored to stock my L and then checked for updates before rooting.
It said I'm already up to date.
I'll try again in a little while before rooting.
But simply being "unlocked" might be what is preventing me from grabbing an update. Not sure.

You can download the update(s) from the Google dev site and adb sideload of fastboot flash the factory image (if your bootloader is unlocked). No need to wait for the OTA, if you don't want to...
Whats the difference between builds NDE63U, NDE63V and NDE63X?
Got a vzw pixel that BL unlocked. Safe to flash the 63X? I saw @jcase said vzw would not do an OTA that relocked your BL. Just wondering if anyone else flashed the 63X build.

Not arguing, but how do you know this.
The previous three builds were all the for different phones.
It's natural to expect the new three builds (all dropped on the same day) are for three different phones, USA, Verizon and *something else*.

Yes, I realize I can typically install my own updates.
But as of right now, nobody truthfully knows which phone should have which build. P is so far looking Verizon Only.
Nobody I know of on Verizon has the H or L images.
So I'd rather be safe than sorry and let my phone CHOOSE it's update, and it did not so I mentioned that here to prevent others from restoring to stock and trying for an OTA
Anyways, it's just a payload.bin file. Not the same android image as the older files. I'm actually not sure how to install a payload.bin.

Valid question. @jcase has clearly stated that "X" would prevent VZW bootloader unlock. Regarding U and V, and which is 11/1 and which is 11/5, I don't know for sure. But it's clear from the Google dev link that each of the 3 builds include an incremental increase in patches.
"clearly stated that "X" would prevent VZW bootloader unlock."
Those durty basturds.
And that's why I didn't get a VZW phone.

Just checked and received it as well!

I know. Since I flashed it, I couldn't pull the ota through logcat.
My update is having issues. Tried a handful of times and would get "update could not be verified" or something similar after the download would complete update. When it doesn't fail verification, the install fails after rebooting. wtf, I have tried the VZW/Moto software update program but it returns that I have the latest software. Guess that channel might not be updated yet.

I wonder if 10N was about to be rolled out then was aborted in favor of 10P. Strange since the Android version itself on both remain on the 7.0 branch. Hopefully the full fledge 10P build will emerge so devs can incorporate any fixes and what not into ROMs.
Edit: Looking at LG's kernel source distro looks like we also missed out on 10O as well as that's up right now. No kernel source as of now for 10P.

You must be new to LG. They stay on the same point release as the phone was released with with all updates. Okay only when they update to the next version of Android does the version number change.

Until you posted this I swore at least the G6 and some of their recent lower tier phones were on 7.1.1 but alas they too are on 7.0 as well. So yeah the next major push LG will do is probably to whatever Android O will be (which is 8.0 the last I heard).

If your bootloader is unlocked can you try this:
https://www.howtogeek.com/240047/how-to-flash-twrp-recovery-on-your-android-phone/
Earlier H918 bootloaders (10d etc) did not have the FLASH command built in if I remember correctly. Maybe LG threw us a bone and included it in this bootloader.
Let me know. If would be great news.

If you do what my previous post says make sure as soon as you get into twrp that you FORMAT data and system (you will lose all data but it will unencrypt the rom) and flash the 10p stock rom, modem, and bootloader. If you don't, you may get a boot loop. You might get one anyway, this is risky. But you already unlocked your bootloader so it's obvious you are down for a little risk lol
God's speed sir. This could be huge
Long overdue for an update but want to make sure before going ahead,

Wrong, you have to use this @runningnak3d tutorial to go back to root...but so far, even if you are on H91010T, you can roll back and root. ARB has not yet been implemented on this phone, so you're good to use any rooting method you see fit in this forum. Enjoy!

I don't know what version of H918 you're on now, but if I'm not mistaken 10k is the last one that you can still mess up and still get root back by downgrading to an earlier version, root and then upgrade. any version after 10k will increment ARB to 1 whereby you will not be able to get root if you lose it. that said, the latest version out now is 10s and if you have root then you should also have TWRP. here's my guide for updating to the latest versions while keep root https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/development/rom-h91810q-stock-rom-twrp-flashable-zip-t3681312. looking at this now, I haven't posted the 10s update file, which I will do now... keep in mind that if you update to 10s that if you lose TWRP you'll be fscked and stuck without root, which at this point could be permanently.

I don't know what version of H918 you're on now, but if I'm not mistaken 10k is the last one that you can still mess up and still get root back by downgrading to an earlier version, root and then upgrade. any version after 10k will increment ARB to 1 whereby you will not be able to get root if you lose it. that said, the latest version out now is 10s and if you have root then you should also have TWRP. here's my guide for updating to the latest versions while keep root https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/development/rom-h91810q-stock-rom-twrp-flashable-zip-t3681312. looking at this now, I haven't posted the 10s update file, which I will do now... keep in mind that if you update to 10s that if you lose TWRP you'll be fscked and stuck without root, which at this point could be permanently.

Hey, I followed the instructions per your thread and successfully installed 10s and kept root! The bad news is that I did a factory reset immediately after and now it keeps bootlooping into TWRP. Any idea how to fix this? Sadly I didn't make a backup because my microsd card was too small and I didn't have the patience to wait til tomorrow and go out and buy one, really hope I didn't kick myself in the ass and brick my phone. :crying:
Edit:
I was able to find a fix by following these instructions:
"I had this happen to me after installing TWRP for the first time. It would keep rebooting to TWRP. This was after making sure I flashed SuperSU as well. Eventually in a moment of "might as well see what will happen" I rebooted then held down the power button and volume down. Got to the option if I wanted to factory reset my phone which I did which booted into TWRP. Rebooted to system from there which got me out of the TWRP Bootloop."
I also set my phone up again and can confirm that 10s is still good with root! Thanks for the guide and work, man. Much appreciated!
