Here are the August '19 update notes:
https://source.android.com/security/bulletin/pixel/2019-08-01.html
OTA should be on it's way.
Have fun
I thought they were saying Android Q would be released in August?

Humm, they were, but things might be a bit delayed. AFAIK, Beta 6 is not out, yet.
I think they messed to with the navigation gestures that's why the delay
They should just use fling and be done with it

You have not updated since July 2018?
Kidding aside, that sounds too large for just two months of security updates.

Working fine, yes.
Guys, I'm rooted and usually do NOT get OTAs.
This time the system downloaded 1182 MB of OTA. How do I delete this? I will manually update and don't want the system to do automatically and need my space back.
It says to restart the system to update and that is is already installed. Will my phone crash - since the update won't work as I'm rooted.
Thank got it finally fixed the CaptivePortalLogin crash I was having!
Does this wreck root, etc? (Haven't touched any of that since I bought the phone in Feb or so)

You need to turn off automatic OTA updates in developer options. I've had this happen to me before also though. What I did was was download the factory image to my pc and then plugged my phone in to the pc. Adb reboot bootloader then fastboot the new image. Let the phone restart and then boot to bootloader again and fastboot TWRP. You can then install magisk and be good to go. As long as you can get to fastboot you should be fine.

I was rooted with a N6 and jokingly looked for and began downloading an update knowing full well it was gonna bork and abort as it always had. The joke was on me; it updated. Lost root but got it back.

Hello,
I might be a moron, but 1 hour ago I received the notification of Android 5.0 OTA update on my Nexus 4 running stock Android 4.4.4. I said I might be a moron because due to the lack of space on my 8GB Nexus 4 I decided to make a factory reset before updating to the new OS. I did it, but I have no update notification anymore. My apps are still updating, but it says the system is up to date when I check for updates.
Please help me, can you tell me if the update dissapeared forever or will it reappear? I waited too long for this.
PS: I want the over-the-air update, I don't want to install it manually.
It will reappear, but as the update rolls out step by step the devices are randomly chosen and you'll have to wait some more time now

But why don't you flash the ota zip in the recovery? There's no difference if you wait for the ota or if you flash it in the stock recovery as it's the same package

Well...will I still receive updates like I would if I install it in ota-mode? I mean, for example, if I flash the OTA zip and after a month the Android 5.1 is released, will the update appear like 5.0 appeared this evening, or I'll have to flash that manually too? I have not many aknowledge about this.

Yes, later updates will still show up on your phone
There are some guides about it. You simply download the ota zip (there are some threads with the link to download the file from Google's servers) and then you sideload it using adb on your PC. You shouldn't have any issues with it
Sideload and ota are the same. The only difference is that your sending the file to the phone through a computer (manually) instead of downloading on the device itself (automatically)
When I got my phone last month, I unlocked the bootloader and installed TWRP. I just got the march OTA and it will not update. It just boots into TWRP and doesnt update. How do I update to the newest patch?

I'd assume that you have to manually flash it with the zip. I'm not sure how it is with a 6p, but with my Oneplus devices that's how it worked.

You can't flash an OTA with TWRP, and you can't take an OTA if you have root/modifications. If you've never rooted or modified in any way you should be able to just flash the stock recovery back and then initiate the OTA process. If you do have root you need to flash the factory images to update. See my guide for details:

I understand that. However it was just an assumption, i never said it would actually work. I'm still trying to learn this device myself as it is my first and only Nexus.

Ok, but you need to realise that people could still try whatever you're assuming and posting here. If what you're posting is incorrect, it could cause major problems for them. What I'm saying is this: do your learning for this device first, and then advise people one you know the information you're giving is solid.

I used Heisenberg's method yesterday and it worked well. If you copy the commands into notepad, edit them so the file paths and build numbers are correct you can just copy/paste into the command prompt. All settings will be saved with the exception of a couple of widgets I had to redo.
I will say with the latest update the device seems faster so I feel like it is worth it.
My wife has started being prompted to this system update the last week for 24.81.3.en.ca. I'm wondering if she can hit install no problem or if i'll need to unroot (or do more?) before i can install.
I've looked and actually can't find much info on this specific update so not sure why that is but if someone could confirm that would be helpful as i dont want to brick her phone as she already doesn't like me 'fiddling with it' so i'll be a dead man but the constant prompts are also starting to annoy her.
Thanks!
I did this update today. Thought it was nougat. Biggest problem for me, was I seem to have lost 60gb of downloaded music on my 128gb sd card. Google play music started downloading EVERYTHING again. Also, all the programs that were on my SD card, disappeared from my home screens. The apps were still there in the app drawer, just had to put the shortcuts back. Not really sure what the update addressed.

October security patch
Sent from my XT1562 using XDA-Developers mobile app
I installed it but, StageFright Detector still tells me that my phone is vulnerable even with this security update. Google needs to make more efforts. Or maybe, Motorola should've given us the December 2016 update instead of a two month old update.
I saw a timeline earlier regarding a Nougat update in Dec for X Play? Any word?
ok so do i just unroot and install or something else? Or is there anyway to hide the update prompts?

Yeah if someone can share it, that'd be great. I can't go back to my stock ROM anymore cause I did the update, then tried CM14.1 and now, trying to go back I get (bootloader) preflash validation failed...

In your bootloader the status should say "unmodified/original(something like that)" you need stock recovery.
Easiest way is to download the new firmware and flash it.

Do NOT do this update. Nothing but problems since. Now will not recognize my sd card at all. Will not format it, gives tons of errors. Called Motorola support, they are aware of problems. Terrible idea.
Maybe that's why I'm completely unable to relock the bootloader with the official ROM?

You can relock them but it will always remain as having been unlocked (status code 2). I've done it several times after tinkering with CM but after yesterday's update I can't do it anymore. I get a preflash verification error.

To save you looking around, here's a reminder how to stop updates: https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/MOTO-G...llipop-update-notification/m-p/3204499#M19669
If you really want to get rid of the Lollipop update notification go to "Setting" then scroll down to "Apps" and select it. It will take you to another screen. Since it's asking you to update you have downloaded the update that enables you to upgrade. Under the "Download" tab scroll down until you find "Motorola Update Services" and select it. You'll have three options at the top, "Force stop, Uninstall Updates and Disable." Select "Disable." It will then prompt you "Delete data and disable app?" Select "OK." It will then ask "Do you want to replace this app with the factory version?" Select "OK." You will no longer be asked to upgrade. If you ever want to upgrade just enable it under the the app again under the "Disabled" tab in the App menu, just swipe to the far right and enable. Don't forget to download the update from the playstore to enable the upgrade to Lollipop in the future.

That's unfortunate for you. Personally, I don't have any problem after the update. The only trouble I had at first was that it was refusing to install because I had root. I tried to unroot and then reinstall default recovery but I still had the same error. I had to flash factory image on the phone before installing it.
Alright the firmware with the update was added to https://github.com/motoxplay/stock !

Hi Guys,
Newbie to this forum...here's hoping you can help resolve my issue. The latest update (24.81.3.en.ca ) does not want to install on my x play get an" error!" message mid-way through the install. Performed a factory reset ( a few times) as per Motorola customer support. Still get the same error message mid-installation…Any suggestions? My phone is stock ( not rooted ...yet). I noticed other users having issues with this update. Was wondering if I don't install this update will I still be able to install Nougat (when it becomes available)? Other than this issue the phone works great no problems.
Cheers!
Just announced. Android P beta is live. https://www.google.com/android/beta#devices
Just got the OTA on my Pixel XL on 8.1
I'm in if someone finds out how to root it. Or at least how we can install it via TWRP or adb. Looks promising. The IO Keynote is kinda fun. Hope more stuff would be "available now" instead of *soon or *this year...
Wondering if tethering goes through a provisioning check or if we need to wait for a root exploit first
beta wont install with custom kernel, uninstalled magisk, no TWRP, but download still wont start.
It will install over the Dev 1 preview. I unrooted, signed up for the beta and hit check for updates and it was there.

I just opened Magisk and had it uninstall itself, rebooted and then hit check for updates and it installed fine. It did fail before I uninstalled Magisk. I can't say for sure how it will be with TWRP installed, I don't do that.

Sorry, can't tell you that since I am waiting for someone kind enough to provide instructions on how to install this with an unlocked bootloader/twrp/magisk. But since full image downloads for this DP2 are not live yet, as far as I know at least, I guess I'll have to wait some more.
And yeah, I feel like they used to show more new stuff "out now" in previous years. But the last few times they announced a whole lot of stuff coming *soon, over the next weeks, months, summer, fall, or whenever. It used to be way more fun for me to get a "new version of Android every year with lots of new features" instead of this gradual roll-out of features. At least that's my opinion.

ymmv, but I was on 8.1 April with twrp/mag16.3. Opted into Beta program and P-dp2 ota downloaded and installed without removing magisk. Note that I had not made any build.prop changes etc.
Once on dp2, fastbooted twrp, reboot recovery- installed full twrp, rebooted recovery -installed full magisk16.4. Magisk rooted fine and tether enabler module seems to work.

You can grab the original preview image, edit out the -w in the flash all bat file and flash it. Then sign up for the Beta and grab the OTA. Then reroot.

Unfortunately that is an incremental update. If you are rooted (with magisk), it won't flash, it will fail. Hopefully oneplus will release the full update in the very near future. Then it is very easy to upgrade and keep root.
