He is getting the error because the updater script checks for the January firmware oreo version as prerequisite for pie update and as he is on February update he gets a build number mismatch error.

Nope the recovery will find the zip as tampered as the zip signature verification fails. The only way is via custom recovery, but the stable release is almost here so thats not recommended.

Me none so far, I'm still charging it before applying. The only officially announced change would be "Hello OnePlus".
I get the error message in TWRP 2.8.0.1 "This package is for device A0001; this device is bacon". Any solution to this?
Thanks.

It's an updated OTA with full system inside. Also upgrades phones from CM11S, as first OTA was missing the voice wakeup and was cancelled.
How to update from the previous CM 12S to this? Need to flash the whole thing?
In lollipop every ota have to be the whole ROM because the OTA is system block based now:

Hi all,

now im booting into a rom after restoring a nougat system.img and just want to go back to square one!
its displaying currently I am on
EMUI 2.0
android 4.3
android security patch lvevel 1st November 2016
build: NRD90M test-keys.
phone is back to locked too.
if I unlock, flash recovery and re-install 6.x stock rom would this work with my android security/firmware level at 1st November 16?
How can I get back to normal from here?
From a very tired stressed out silly guy haha
Thanks!

i have no idea! it states i have 1gb RAM too so i have a feeling the output details on this screen are borked.
Secuirty android version is 2016 november so just ideally would like to confirm if i try flashing 6.x it would work?
or do i need to work out how to downgrade the security version first?

Im talking about the size of the download. Usually these minor updates are 200 MB.
Btw, this doesn't even include April security patch.
Just received B25 OTA but when I ask it to install, phone reboots into TWRP and I can't install from TWRP. Later I get a notification that update failed. I tried FlashFire, it detects the B25 OTA but will not install gives message "Unencrypted ....".

To get the stock OTA to work , you need the stock recovery (TWRP won't work).
Not sure about Flashfire?

Can you prove this?
Problem that I have found was with the Fingerprint sensor. Before I could unlock my phone easy. Now I have to stick my tongue out, while standing on my head, one leg horizontal, and he the other leg vertical. Wiping cache helps a little but not a lot. I removed fingerprints and re-added them. Helps a little.

I don't understand the question. If you're on B25, there is no need. If you're on B19 and want the B25 update, you'll either need to be stock or wait for a flash package before updating, since you've modified some partitions.
The OTA files only work directly on fully stock phones.

Sorry if I weren't clear, currently I have Nougat 7.1.1 and my version is 0B19 and I want to install the 0B25 that was pushed OTA yesterday. I thought I was running B19 stock. I am Unlocked, TWRP and Rooted. If there is something that has been modified in my system then as you stated, I guess I have to wait for a B25 ZIP to flash.
Thank you for your help.

Not true... I installed the OTA to my setup using TWRP just needed to delete a few lines from the updater-script to make it possible

Finally got the real 7.1.1. For the z play droid!

As of 3:45 a.m. this morning I couldn't believe what I was seeing thanks Verizon it's about time still messing around with it (7.1.1.) I'll let you know how it goes like it so far oh yeah I'm on the east coast S.C. THANKS AGAIN AND GOD BLESS EVERYONE!!!
Downloading right now.
Mike
I'm in the United States and I got 7.1.1 last night ?
got it today also
Yep, it's finally here, downloading.
Update 7.1.1 is here on RETEU
Just got the 7.1.1 OTA for the Moto Z Play on RETEU
Will keep you posted as soon as installed and tested
Just downloading 7.1.1. in Germany
I'm doing the 7.1.1 update in France
I'm here on April patch RETEU, but I'm rooted, with custom kernel and modified system.
What is the safe way to install the 7.1 OTA? I've already been notified about it.
Safe way is to flash everything from bootloader with a full package... OTA is to be avoided if you modified system and recovery.

Safest way is to flash my 7.1.1 stock rom, if you decide you don't like 7.1.1 you can safely move back or forth to any rom. Taking the OTA means you can't or should downgrade or you could end up hard bricked.

Yeah, I see. But the latest avaible full RETEU firmware is NPN25.137-24-1 and flashing this is not safe. Can I flash RETAIL april patch instead?
Got the update too but is your home button with Google animation? Mine turned into pixel home button 2 hours after the update

Razer Phone 2 got new update today with a lot of improvements. ( that's why i want update)
Build number : P-MR2-SGT-RC002-RZR-190918.3666
The problem is if the phone is rooted it won't update until you restore or flash factory image because uninstall Magisk won't help.
So i flash my phone to 9 Pie and install the new update but i cannot Root it i try many times with no luck.
And the weird thing every time try to root and fail the phone go back to 8.1 Oreo not the 9 Pie !!!

arter kernel work on the previous update like magic but this new update is not work.
@kountry83
Ok i think the problem is with the slot A/B.
The previous 9 Pie is install on A slot and when you update the update use the B slot.
I Root 9 Pie it show the slot is A.
When i update and try to flash the patched boot.img it show B slot.
also check Magisk says : https://topjohnwu.github.io/Magisk/install.html
Devices with A/B Partitions
Due to the fact that these devices have two separate partitions, it is possible to have the OTA installed to the inactive slot and have Magisk Manager to install Magisk onto the updated partition. The out-of-the-box OTA installation works seamlessly and Magisk can be preserved after the installation.
@khaled1881
Try flashing arter kernel or patched boot image to slot a and b.

I used method #2 to capture the OTA link. You'll have to search for the link and then you can copy it and share with us here if you don't mind?
Which firmware are you running when you get the update??

Nice . Did you Root the new MR2. For me still cannot root.
Is the Boot image from MR1 same the MR2 ? Because if it is the same i think we can Patch the image and root.
