The weirdest damn thing happened to me...I received a system update available notification (i.e. ICS) as I was going to bed. I thought I'd just do it in the morning. When I woke up, the notification was gone, and if i try to go to manually do a system update, it says device is up to date.
anyone experience such an issue, and how can I resolve this?
thanks
Same thing happened to me. I was on 3G and decided when I get home I'd use wifi to download and update. Now it says up to date.
so weird!! all other updates previously would remain for days... anyone find a solution to this yet?
Same happened to me to this morning, it disappeared

wait or
you can update ics by making manual promotion
I prefer to avoid manual for two reasons:
1- I still believe the actual OTA version varies slightly than what is claimed to be the official OTA release in zip format. Little touches are always done before pushing an OTA update.
2- I have a broken power button, so can't do much in bootloader, or even get into it.
Perhaps google took it back to do some more bug fixing. But I'd like to hear an official statement if that's the case

Please explain. I've tried:
Checkin
System Updates
Resetting phone.
Seems like the update was pulled. No matter what I do it says the phone is up to date. With all these stories of people bricking their phones I want to stay relatively legit.

Same thing. When I heard google started pushing ICS, I flashed back my nandroid backup of my stock 2.3.4 to get the OTA update, Immediately I got 2.3.6 update and installed it, and few hours later when I wasn't home I got the 4.0.3 update, and I thought I'll do it when I get home, but then it disappeared and doesn't comes back no matter what I do.
I did backup to the corrent stock (2.3.6) and tried to flash back to 2.3.4, thought maybe it will push me again, but now it doesn't push me 2.3.6 either.
Are OTA updates one-time only ? or it supposed push me 2.3.6 again ?
anyways I restored 2.3.6 and I wait hopefully to 4.0.3 again.
Please update here if you know any solution. I know I can install it manually, but I prefer clean OTA version.
after I update to ICS manually, the VPN doesnot work, so I flashed back to 2.3.6 and want to update by OTA.
but till then, the 2.3.6 system says it's up to date...
looks like it's pulled by google...hopefully for some enhancements... still waiting for something official
we had it in our hands and we lost it
Same story.
Last night I saw the system update notification and after 30' (charging the battery) I lost it.
I suppose it's due to issues with ICS 4.0.3. For example I can't make outgoing calls (SMS, incomming calls and data - works fine). Had to revert back to 2.3.6. Now everything works. So for two days i saw update notification and today it dissapeared. So I hope they found a problem and will fix it soon.
yeah, I guess I'm glad I didn't install it then. I'm sure it was pulled for a valid reason, so it's best to wait...fingers crossed that it won't be too long of a wait.
In the mean time I think I need to get my power button fixed, or hope the widgetlocker works on ICS so I can use my volume locker to wake the screen!!

Not an official story by any means but it looks like there is definitely something going on.

EDIT: I just noticed one of his sources links back here.
See this photo:

It seems that the digit in the top right corner of notification stops updating, and always showing the old time.
It will only update if i try to switch the time format to 24h and switch back, and it stays there since then.
A reboot will fix it but the bug may appear randomly. So I may get the wrong time and be late...
Pixel XL using totally stock rom without root or unlock, build number NDE63X(manually updated through google's full ota link, i didn't recieve any ota update since bought with NDE63N)
Anyone has the same issue?
Same issue here this morning with my Pixel.
After an hour the time was up to date again.
Build number NDE63V
Haven't had this problem on the pixel yet, but used to get it once and a while on my Samsung phones. I always thought it had to do with the network feeding the phone the wrong information. After a while it would update and be back to normal
Received a system update of 139MB today. Says it was for bug fixes and system stability. Now at PB2-690Y-161202. Still showing android security patch level August 1, 2016.
Update
Seems to have stopped my screen from flashing when receiving notifications. Haven't noticed much else yet.
Last update here is: PB2-690M_S200032_161202
Update
Got another OTA update today bumping my build up to
PB2-690Y_S200032_161214. Anyone have an idea what the idea is behind these two updates. I feel like another thing improved on from the first update was the visibility of the notifications. I'm noticing I don't have as hard a time reading them on the pull down shade.
Google + installs with the latest update.
Fixed Google+ issue and included December security update, that's all I've noticed so far.
YouTube audio video sync issue not fixed.
Google Photos, since the Dec. 9 update, was crashing a couple of times an hour until I disabled it. Looks like this Dec. 24 update fixed that bug.
Also, looks like a new Tango app's been bundled in--Amazon Product Preview. Wanna see how that new flat screen would look on your mantel? Amazon's app will put it up there or anywhere else you want!
new update available. says "security , new device features " , its the android june security patch and possibly a new feature
If your using the no root hotspot it still works through update!!
It installs weird too after rebooting it restarts then the screen will black out and say "installing applications"
then it will say software is custom until the update notification at the top stops. even though it already popped up a toast that said successfully upgraded yet that still has to fill up (in the notification) then it all goes to normal seems smoother than ever
I am applying it right now, will follow up if I run across any issues.

Thanks. So there is more than just security patch in it at that size.
All I know is the last update(not this one) broke my phone, My system app crashed randomly, vibration would continue to vibrate after calls were answered, very slow response and frequent random resets. Notifications would either not appear or not disappear. One time I lost all my home screen apps. The problems were so severe I decided to upgrade to the S8.
After this update my phone runs like new.... too bad I already decided to buy the new S8.... although my 'excuse' for needing it apparently has been fixed by this update, Now I just want the S8.

yeah mines running smooth as butter. Just a note if you have that problem again (vibration etc) go into Stock recovery and clear cache it fixes it
Hello everyone,
My Pixel 7 Pro experience has been so far smooth ride but since I received November update it is definitely more buggy, than it was. From time to time I get freezed screen (only something works, like pulling notification tab, but nothing else) and I have to restart device. Camera app opened from lock screen often closes itself when tapping shutter button. Do you also have this kind of behaviour? No root, no mod, no nothing, everything stock.
Plus additional bonus from A13 feature. Replying to messages in landscape mode is just dumb. Can't see what I'm writing. Can't press send button.
I don't have these bugs and yeah, landscape mode has never been ideal for a lot of things. This isn't new.
Before update I had only minor bugs like invisible watch widget or invisible spotify in notifications. But since update it got much worse and I have to regularly restart device.
I too haven't been experiencing anything out of the ordinary, and like Ethereal said... Landscape is always so and so but I was able to scroll the uhm... reply box? Notification?
I don't know when, but Google used to do a full screen text box for landscape text but seems to have gotten rid of it, maybe you're intended to scroll what you want to see?
No problems on my end. In fact, it's only gotten better (especially the signal quality) on the November update.

Yes experience frozen screen code of times.
Updated my phone to November patch 3-4 days back, not had any of these issues. Has been just as stable as October for me.

I guess you can scroll but it doesn't make sense when there is a lot of unused space above. It just looks unfinished.

It doesn't happen everyday. But it already happened in the morning. I woke up, took the phone and home screen was frozen. I couldn't swipe or open anything. Only notification tab was working. Had to restart the phone. I have to restart the phone like every two days. Definitely expected more from clean Android. MIUI had much more features and wasn't as buggy as this.
No issues here on the nov update either, if anything its an improvement over the oct update. I'm really looking forward to the dec update though, that should really improve things.

It might not happen every day. But for me it hasn't happened at all, and nor for most other users if this thread is any indication.

For me, I have part of the keyboard freezing up and not recognizing touches when using FB messenger in bubbles for long time. I mean at least having the bubble open for a long time

I think the point might be it's unrelated to the update.
Mine has been super stable with the November update - zero issues actually, which is rare for me.
Well, I do have errors since the last update:
The phone does not wake up after a long time without being used. It does not work double tap on screen, or change the position of the phone. I have to press the power button to wake up.
On one occasion the lock screen was hung with the semi-lit fingerprint sensor, but pressing the power button was solved.
Of course, the previous update was much better.

Might be, but it didn't do it before the QPR1 B3.1...

Indeed, it might be, it might not, I'm not suggesting it definitely isn't at fault.
However, where it didn't happen for you prior to the update, it hasn't happened to myself and many others (most others?) either before or after. This suggests the update being the cause is no certainty, contrary to the thread title, rather that it is something being assumed by virtue of the fact it's a change that has taken place.

Yeah in theory, but in reality it is hit and miss month on month. In saying that it has been far smoother than the Pixel 6 series
Only issue I've had is text box randomly not popping up with keyboard in Messages and Chrome input boxes. So input field stays hidden underneath Gboard. But I was having this issue in last update too
also i've noticed the Level tool in the camera now is tilted about 4° to the right, so i had to disable it.
My Status Bar Clock is missing since the update. :l
