June update is out - Google Pixel 3 XL Guides, News, & Discussion

or do we not care anymore?
https://developers.google.com/android/images

Let me know when Q is out or an update actually does something.
Otherwise it is just the first Monday of the new month.

Do you have a link to the newer version? Latest version shows as 28.0.2 (March 2019) on the SDK Tools page HERE.

just download the latest platform tools for windows, till be version r28.0.3 i promise

Coming from a LG phone to the pixel 3xl, any form of update is a big deal!!

Last changes to ADB in Platform Tools was Middle Of April so Masri is correct.

Amazing. Half the time people whine that phones aren't updated fast enough or don't receive updates. Meanwhile on the board for Pixel 3, where updates arrive at the start of each months, and people apparently don't care?

It’s not people aren’t excited, it’s just a routine security update , nothing really to talk about.

Was hoping Google was.going to include those performance improvements in this update they found, but nope. Not really an exciting update. Alot of people have switched over to Q beta as well

Anyone have the patched boot.img for June? On slow data and want to avoid downloading a huge file if possible

I installed the beta 4 on my pixel 3 xl and had to hard reset or else I was stuck in an endless loop. Took hours to update this time.

I have an unlocked Pixel 3 xl straight from google but have not gotten either the may or june update. Does anyone have idea why?

What's new in platform-tools?
Also, when I connect my phone to my computer running Windows 10 after taking the June update, the device name changed from "Pixel 3 XL" to "crosshatch." Does anyone know why it's going by its code name now? Is anyone else seeing this?

The Device name did not change on my phone though. It's still "Pixel 3 XL." The only thing that has changed is how it is identified on my computer.

Ok, all I care about when my phone is connected to the computer is the computer recognizes it. How it is identified doesn't matter to me. I hope else has the answer to your question.

New TMO FOTA update

So I just got a notification for my update. If any developer wants it just let me know and I will send you a link to my Google Drive.
Does it tell you what the update version is. That is very helpful to them. My guess is its J which they have already.

Really? I didn't check or know how. I used the kdz for 10i a couple of weeks ago and I took the 10j update. Rooted from there and have only been flashing 10j roms. That's why i thought it was new. How do i check?
If so I feel retarded, haha. I thought I was helping out.

If you click on the notification it should give you more info on it (Haven't actually clicked on one since JB so don't quote me on that lol) or you can pull the update from /cache and upload it to google drive and send me the link so I can look at it. (Dont put the link in the forums cause people tend to flash first, question later why they leap before they look).

@Tilde88 or another will have to look at this. I tried numerous ways to extract this (I'm on Windows and am not familiar with messing with python on it, keep getting Command "bsdiff" is not valid, don't have dual boot on Windows 10 for a Ubuntu OS to do android related things yet, haven't had any motivation for anything these days) but I at least see it checks in the updater script if your system is NRD90M before it proceeds.
I just cant see an update so soon after J. We all know how good LG is at updates as well as source.

You are right, but I also remember with 10j, everyone seemed to get it within a day on TMO.
But you may be right if another one is out.
What size is the zip file?
It's strange why I would see an update on my phone. I am on 10j everything (bootloaded and all) and still got that update.
whats the model after the update
This was the update i took. Also, you can still root just fine.

I think so but it's from ta-1020 just one sim
Something tells me we won't be getting android P/
Hi all! I I tell you guys what is my first experience with the new update. I have a Nokia 3 TA-1032 dual sim, I use it with SD card, and I formatted as an internal storage. When today I decided to search for some updates to the system, and suprise: Hell ya boy, it have. So first the update is downloaded, then reboot. The phone was failed. I don't know what happened. So a reboot again whatta heck is happened, and I just see, the background image has changed, and all of the app icons dissappeared, and sadly some of the apps are lost huge amount of data. But! No upgrade. I'm quite not happy. After this, I repeated the update 2 times: failed. Than I decided to eject(I mean pick it out from my device) my SD card, and repeat the process. Remember, my SD is formatted as an integral storage. After this circus I finally get the update, and installed. So, I just looked my apps: hello Google, nice unnecessary apps what you got there. Your eyes my friend is good: with the update, we get some unnecessary apps, like: Google docs, and other type of things. I'm so happy Nokia. Oh, and the new 8.1 system is using more ram! JUST THE SYSTEM WITHOUT APPS! Please guys, think twice before installing this "very useful and super" update...
please give some reviews on oreo 8. 1 update
is there any performance and Battery improvement?
Hello, I never wrote here, but I am desperate and I need your help. I upgraded to 8.1 tonight and it really sucks, I asked Nokia on their chat but it doesn't seem to be possible to rollback to 8.0, can I root my phone or something?

Only thing you can do is flash a 7.x rom using ost then upgrade to 8.0, but you will lose all your data.
There are threads on how this is done. I'm guessing you haven't unlocked your bootloader
Indeed, I never did anything like that, at all, I know nothing when it comes to telephones, so all these root and bootloader things scare me a lot. But I just can't keep 8.1, it turns on the screen when I get a notification, I can't play pokémon go, and the brightness is wrong. This is such a mess, also I have no money to buy another phone, I just want to cry
By the way, why do I have to rollback to 7 instead of 8 directly? And how can I ensure that I'll get 8.0 instead of 8.1 when I upgrade? Sorry for all these questions but as I said I know nothing, if you can give me detailed steps and/or links to relevant guides I'll be grateful.

No, I *want* the notifications to be on the lock screen, but I don't want the screen to lit up when I receive a notification. Because, as other people said elsewhere, if I receive a notification while the phone is in my pocket, it might start doing other things since the screen became responsive instead of staying off. But I do want to see the notifications on the lock screen if I press the power button, otherwise I'd need to unlock the phone all the times. I hope that this makes sense.
None of that matters anyway since I'm mainly disappointed by Pokémon Go.

As for performance: it's MUCH better. Everything opens at least twice as fast as on 8.0, but there's a sacrifice for this: the general smoothness of system has degraded. In-app performance is best and it's pretty smoother than 8.0, but in such places as recent apps menu and drop-down bar it's quite laggy.
As for battery, I see no changes at all.
Yes, in 8.1 the recent apps menu is terrible laggy. I hope they fix it as soon as possible.
Is there any gcam 6.1xxxxx working on nokia 3??
This is the ****est update i had ever got.

Android Q Beta

Has anyone else given it a go on this phone yet? So far I think its working pretty well, with only a couple slowdowns.
Has anyone else noticed a bit of a slowdown with wifi? Sometimes I have to kick it over to LTE to login to apps, even though I can run speed tests and things.
Just wanted to see what other people were experiencing with the beta, sorry if this the wrong place for this.
Other than poor "stand by" battery drainage for me, I think it works pretty good.
But, Android Q it's not on Pixel 3A, isn't it?

Not via OTA, you can pick up the system image from the website and flash it manually though.
As to the OP, I gave it a shot for a couple days but I kept getting a bug where I'd unlock the phone and just get a black screen so I got frustrated and flashed back lol I hope the OTA thats supposedly coming next month fixes it up so it could be a daily driver.
Thanks antp121
I tried to find from official website the Android Q image for Pixel 3A and flash it via sideload or similar.
Can you help me how to do?

I've been running it for a few weeks. Side loaded the OTA as soon as I got the phone. They took down the OTA file but it's posted in this thread. I've had no issues other than a few apps not being comparable yet and there is no working Magisk out for Pixels 3/3a with Q beta.

On a related note, does anyone know if opting out of the Beta will delete any esim profiles?

Simply "opting out" of the beta by pressing the button on the web page will not change anything. But as soon as you (download and) install Pie, my guess is that it will erase everything including any esim profiles. When you go from one major release to another - especially a downgrade - the phone is typically going to be wiped completely. It purposefully erases all information to ensure there isn't any conflicts between the two OS versions.

october security update Android 9 Mi A2 Lite

So I just received a new security update, I don't think there's anything more than just the latest security package
same here, just 65 MB. couldn't find any new features yet.
Scrolling is definitely smoother.
It seems like booting up takes shorter time to load unlike with the previous update patches.

Well at least i am not alone in this one, hopefully Xiaomi will fix this issue and we can update it normally. Gonna follow this thread.
Especially if you've rooted, you probably have modified system or vendor partitions.
You can see what the OTA doesn't like by looking at adb.
Code:
adb logcat | grep update_engine
There's been no 10.0.14.0 fastboot image but I do have backups of these partitions I made myself. They're huge but I might be able to get them on the internet if needed...

Yes I'm talking about the downgrade from dp4 to 10.
Let me tell you what I did,it was by mistake that I fix it.
I was on May build with face id broken,I downloaded the June ota yesterday but by mistake I choose Telstra ota the one that end with 002.A1 and face id work.
Then I realized that the build number is wrong for my phone so I tried to flash the full June build the one that end with 001 and again face id stopped working so I decided to stay with Telstra build

Best advice I could give is to first patch the boot.img when all your magisk modules have either been disabled, or removed. Then dirty fastboot, (-w removed) the factory image to your inactive slot, let it boot up, then fastboot the magisk_patched.img to both slots. Also make sure your platform-tools are up to date. Best of luck to ya :good:
