Android 10 Update ? - Google Pixel Questions & Answers

Hello everyone,
Right now I'm running the last beta of Android 10
The phone is unlocked and it is rooted
Is there a way for me to install Android 10 and not lose what I've done to the phone
Or am I better off starting from scratch
And if that is the case what are the steps I need so I don't brick my phone

I am unable to install the update......"Couldnt install try again", this is the error i am getting.............i am on latest android 10 beta

When jumping from beta to stable, or one version to another, a clean flash is always recommended.
But, if you want to update without wipe, I suggest you do the following:
- Download the full factory image of android 10
- Unzip it
- Find and edit the "flash-all" script (there are 3 of them, the .bat is for windows etc..)
- Remove the "-w" from the last line and save
- Go in fastboot mode
- Launch the modified script
It will flash the update without wiping the device. Of course since it's an update, it will remove root, custom kernel and twrp, but data will be preserved.
If you prefer to wipe, don't remove the "-w" from the script. Before launch it, remember it will wipe also the /sdcard totally, so backup to your pc what you need.
I did a clean flash and I can tell it feels more fluid and fast, also you avoid possible errors during the upgrade

If you have twrp installed, you can;
-download latest full ota zip to phone
-flash ota in twrp
-flash twrp zip after ota
-reboot recovery
-flash latest magisk zip
-reboot
This won't wipe anything, is just a dirty flash.

I want to flash the full image, without wiping so ill remove the -w. But I see there are two packages for Android 10 on googles page. Do you know which version to download if im in the USA with Tmobile? Thanks.

Mine automatically did the second one when I accepted the OTA from the carrier. The "20" one.

Which version of Magisk did you guys install 19.4 Canary or the 19.3 Stable?
Also did you just boot into TWRP or did you flash TWRP?

Thanks. I tried to flash Magisk 19.3 Stable and ElementalX Kernal 5.05 but I got the error at the end that system and something else were not mounted. Do you know how I get around this? THANKS for all your input!

Sorry, can't help you with that as I'm not familiar with custom kernels and flash orders.
Maybe ask in that specific thread?

Any chance for an Odexed base?
I tried again to install and just sat on the boot screen and tried again after booting back into recovery and clearing dalvik cache same result, has anyone else successfully booted? If so tell me how you proceeded on install, I formatted data and cache then wiped boot and did clean install, it did install but just stayed on boot animation, let it run for at least 10 minutes but never booted into Rom,

you make a backup in recovery, then dirty flash, dont wipe a single thing, 444 over it. if alls well after, then perfect. if you have issues, you have that backup in recovery to restore

Unfortunately my clairvoyant skills aren't working today
perhaps you could elaborate on the following 2 things
1) what zip are you flashing?
2) what error are you getting?

Don't use OTA updates. Just manually flash a rooted stock ROM via TWRP.
Click the link in my signature and go to the "resources" section. You'll find a full rooted, PURE STOCK 4.4.4 rom there.
Copy it to your /sdcard, take a FULL nandroid backup then flash the ROM.

if the dirty flash is successful, you wont lose a thing, except time. if you have to go back and wipe, you will lose your data. so, make a backup in recovery first, before the dirty flash.

[Q] Is Supersu installed by default on N5 ?

Hello,
I just make a full wipe and see that Supersu is installed by default after boot. Is this normal?
Thanks,
Vandur
No unless you're flashing a custom rom. Some custom roms will include supersu.

If you did a full wipe using twrp, it roots the phone automatically unless you decline the option.

If you bought it second hand the first thing I'd do is flash the factory image so it's like brand new.

Why do you want to update twrp when there is nothing wrong with it?
If you do update twrp to a newer version it would not reset anything.
Good luck,
Have a great day!
I'd also like to move onto 3.0.0.0 because MTP does not work on 2.8.7.1. I have tried everything and am unable to move anything off the phone in TWRP.

Nothing will be reset. Just download the version for your device in .IMG format and flash it in TWRP or via Odin. I have no issues with 3.0 and have been using it since it became available.

TWRP and rooted, OTA is installing

I've been sitting on 5.1.7 rooted with TWRP for awhile. Got the OTA to 5.1.8 and accidentally clicked install. Will I just have to reinstall magisk when it's done?

You can download the full ROM, flash it in TWRP, flash TWRP.zip, reboot recovery, flash magisk, reboot and done.
Last week I flashed the ota as full rom image via fastboot. Then booted and everyting was ok. But then, rebooted into recovery and it just wiped everything without any option. So, my guess is to flash ota via fastboot, fladh twrp via fastboot, reboot to twrp and then install magisk ?
P.s. after update to 5.1.8, does your rear camera portrait mode is working ? My not.

You probably ran the fasboot command with wipe option included.
Ok, what is the correct command to run via fastboot ?
