Allright, I've got S-OFF, it's rooted, and I've switched between Sense and CM7.1ALPHA's for a few times, but I'm mainly using Sense (CM just isn't stable enough, yet ), and since the latest OTA update, I'm looking for ways to install that, though simply following http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1228648 does not work because there doesn't seem to be any TMO_NL ruu for the sensation.
I've tried using the EU version from the previously mentioned thread, but that failed at
"7. When the application finishes flashing, press <No> which will reboot into recovery."
I pressed no, but it did not go to recovery, instead it siimply rebooted, and it looked like it had reset itself to factory settings.
I tried to download and install the OTA update anyway but to no avail.
I've heard about unbranding by changing the CID, will this make me able to use other recovery images to then install the OTA?
Current Software number: 1.45.114.1 / TMO_NL_1.45.114.1
Carrier: T-Mobile NL
Desperate bump.
My wife's M8 is stock rooted. (Mine is happily running ViperOne )
She got the notification for the OTA update, and accepted. The phone rebooted into CWM, and the update failed. The phone came back up just fine, however.
How do I either get the update to install or get the OTA notification to stop popping up?
i imagine this has been answered a billion times, but I seem to only be able to find links related to other ROMs and the OTA.
Thanks
Looks like I got it done with this:

hey there,
I re-activated my old HTC one mini (M7) yesterday. The phone is on Android 4.3.
After installing all the app updates that had accumulated, I wanted to update the system as well (4.4.2. update notification was showing).
However, the update did not work. It restarted like it should but then just booted up normally and was still on 4.3.
I had clockworkmod installed which I used to do a factory reset. Now even after the reset, I can not update even though the notification is showing all the time.
All it does is a standard reboot for some reason.
does anyone know what's going on?
cheers!
I have a Pixel 2 with the bluetooth connection issues. When I go look for the Google Security Updates, it says that I am up-to-date. I did a factory reset and tried to get the update afterwards, but it has the same issue where it is not finding the update.
Has anyone successfully been able to find a way to get the phone to find the updates, or should I get a hold of Google to return the phone?
Thanks,
Mark
I have also not received the November security update, every time I check it says it is up to date. I bought the unlocked version from the Google Store and am using Verizon.
This reddit thread shows a way to potentially force it, i have not tried it yet -- https://www.reddit.com/r/GooglePixe..._on_september_security_patch_regular_pixel_2/
UPDATE: I have tried it, and it did not work
I also tried it and it didn't work. I would be more patient, but the Bluetooth issue is quite frustrating. I'll give it a few more days then will contact Google again for a replacement device.
Despite they say that the check for updates button now always bring the latest update. There's a lot of people that doesn't get it when pressed and have to wait a few days or weeks to get them like always.
Things that could affect the check for update button:
- Not being 100% stock un-rooted
- Being subscribed to the Android Beta
- and sometimes if you start executing an OTA update and it fails you might need to wait a few days for a second chance.
None of these reasons apply to you obviously but just giving my experience.
The best 100% official workaround to get now the update is to install the update manually using the stock recovery:

Are the ones marked Verizon for the Verizon version, or also for people who bought the unlocked version and are using Verizon? My current version is OPD1.170816.010, which is not a Verizon version, so I guess I would want OPD1.170816.025 since the version I currently have is not the Verizon version? Still find it crazy that an update would come this late, never got them this late on my 5X. I never understood the point of if I manually check I cant just auto get the OTA (I know there was that article somewhat recently that they are moving to that though).
I got 023 over the air automatically on my Pixel 2. Haven't downloaded the OTA from the developer site some I got this phone.
OPD3.170816.023, Nov 2017, Verizon
I too bought unlocked from Google but using on Verizon. I was on .10 and waited weeks after release for a push, but it never came. So I manually flashed the .25 update. No issues, working perfectly, with the Nov security update.
I am still on september security update. Got a Pixel 2 (Verizon). Hope they hurry up. Its almost december
Sorry to bring up an old thread, but I have the same problem ever since I cleared the Google Play Services' data through the app's interface. The OTAs just stopped coming. I have been flashing full OTA images since August, but it is getting really annoying. I still didn't get the November's patch, nor the December's one. It always says my system is up to date. I didn't try clearing the Play Services Framework's data, as it isn't effective and only causes trouble. I tried clearing the Play Services' data though many times, but it doesn't help.
I am rooted with Magisk. Everything else is fully stock (rom, kernel, recovery) and I do pass the Safety Net test.
If anyone has a solution to this problem, please share it with the world. I don't believe that I am the only one with this problem.
Same here, rooted pixel 2, currently away from pc so would love to update from phone

I've had the same problem with my P2XL for the last couple of month. I have just been downloading the full updated firmware and flashing from my computer, but it would be nice to be able to update while travelling with no computer.
Details:
-Magisk rooted, everything else stock, including recovery.
-Google edition - I used to get updates, not sure what changed.
-Not on beta. I even tried signing up and then unsubscribing. No help.
-"Check for update" button does nothing.
-Clearing data on Google Services Framework doesn't help.
-I'm in Mexico on Telcel, but updates have worked in the past.
Haven't been receiving OTA updates since flashing the Pie factory image in August.
Device is stock apart from being rooted with Magisk.
Update button always says system is up to date, so I eventually sideloaded the latest OTA image at the end of November but still didn't receive any update notification in December.
I'm starting to suspect the update manager in Pie is detecting root or something, because I used to receive updates just fine on Oreo, and everyone else who has this problem also seems to be rooted.
I'm telling you guys something I've never seen before.
I bought a Realme 5 Pro (EU version it seems), and noticed that the installed ROM is quite old (November patched). So I tried looking for updates in the settings app, but there was none. Then I went to realme website:
https://www.realme.com/eu/support/software-update
And downloaded this ROM from that website:
https://download.c.realme.com/osupdate/RMX1971EX_11_OTA_0160_all_gOztiTWijElq.ozip
I went to the default file manager and clicked on it, and the update started right away, finishing after 2-3 minutes.
After the phone booted with the new ROM, everything was okay. The FM radio app went missing, but it was said in the changelog, so that didn't matter to me.
Then the most bizarre thing happened.
I went to the file manager and clicked on the ROM file once again, being damn sure that the update will not take place, because I've already installed this update. But the system accepted the update, rebooted to recovery, and started the whole charade one more time, including showing the percentage. It took exactly the same time as before.
I was half expecting something to go wrong, but to my relief everything was alright. After booting, the ROM version was the same as before (after updating the first time). Nothing changed.
I have never seen anything like this before. I have used phones from many manufacturers, but Everytime I try to update the system with the same ROM version as the one already installed, it would refuse the update, UNLIKE REALME.
Perfectly fine same on other oppo device
Try hard reset
After that,go to settings>update, and update it
