[Q] Android 5.01 - Verification Failed

Okay so I've just received a refurbished Nexus 5 from Google as my old one had a hardware power button fail. Anyway I've decided this time round I'm not going to root and wanted the phone completely stock so thought I would do all the OTA updates it gives me before I start messing around with it but have a slight problem.
The phone came installed with 4.4.2 and did an over the air update to 4.4.4 it now wants to upgrade to 5.0.1 however whenever I download the update which is 479.5MB it downloads it and tries to 'verify' install and then I get a 'verification failed' every time and it doesn't install, anyone know what's going on? (may I add I have literally not touched the phone it's come straight from Google, the only thing I've done is logged into my Google account and updated whatever stock apps needed updating in the play store)

Looks like you have a bad download of the ota. By formating the cache partition you delete the downloaded ota and they you can try to download again.

Hello,
I'd recommend you to do a clean install of latest CM nightly of your device along with recommended gapps (Opengapps).
Also you may register for a XDA account to post and reply in the forums.

[Q] Any problems with Chrome browser?

After last actualization to v5.1 Chrome browser stops working. It locking on phone and after some time switch off offering possibility to send info (to Google I think...). I have tried all versions - Standard, Beta & Dev - all the same. Probably this is because of new functions... I have to reinstall older version from backup...

Pfff I'm not alone me too all chrome stop working.
But wich update Did you talk, chrome or rom of mediapad ?
Because me I have no update the rom 5.1.1 so i imagine you reinstall old chrome version.
If yes where can i find it ?
Thanks
Ok i find v49 and it's works again.
I hope Google update v50 soon

It's problem with update of Chrome itself, I think it is v5.1. Because I am doing backups of my apps at regular intervals I was able reach to backup and install back older version. Maybe next versions will work with our phone...

Was having the same issue you could find the previous version of chrome apk at apk mirror.com

Mine works 100%.
I'm using version 49.0.2623.105, on stock EMUI 3.1, 5.1.1

So if you want to stay in such state do not allow Chrome to upgrade, at least for now... or made backup of your actual version... or both

Not receiving Google Security Updates

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.

HW2 4g how to upgrade android wear

Hi all
I am very new to android. I got the HW2 4g version from China and flashed to international rom. I have seen the news that android wear updated to 2.9 but mine is still 2.0. Will we get the update from Huawei or play store? As I am currently connecting to an iphone, I can't find any android wear update on the play store in watch. How should people update their android wear on HW2? from system update on the watch or adb install apk?
Model LEO-DLXX
Build number N7176C
Android wear 2.0.0.166801816
Google play service 11.9.75(530-182402865)
Android OS 7.1.1
Security patch level August 1, 2017
Thank you very much.

Android Wear on the watch should be getting updated from the play store, it usually happens for me when i leave it to charge, but mine is paired to an Android phone running Oreo 8.1 so it might be slightly different for you.
You could always sideload the latest apk over adb - I done this for android wear 2.9 because it took a while to roll out here in Ireland.
Download the SDK Platform Tools from google for your computer (I'm assuming windows)
Extract the platform tools archive somewhere like your desktop where you can find it easily
Put the Android Wear apk into that folder too
Open command prompt to that folder
Plug your watches' charger into the computer and place your watch on the charger
Run the following command to check if your watch is connected:
Code:
adb devices
Run the command below to install the apk
Code:
adb install -r <name of apk downloaded.apk>

Thank you very much. Very clear instruction. I have adb on my laptop and will try manual update tonight. I suspect I didn’t get the update because of iPhone. Just want to confirm update android wear would not impact on future OTA update, right?

Hi EccTM
Just side load the android wear 2.9 baes on your instruction. Super easy and fast.
Thanks you very very much.

Wear 2.9 is not Huawei update. Wear 2.9 is update from google. You must have google account and must have wifi, data or by connection thru Mobil. Update is possible thru Google play. Nothing more.

Not sure which ROM you flashed. I flashed the factory rom. People said they are getting OTA updates. From memory, I got a couple of updates right after. But I am not 100% sure. Sorry, can't give you a certain answer. One thing I can confirm is that I am still waiting for Oreo.

N7176C， which is same as yours.
I am not sure if you realize that there has been several releases after this edition. it seems that the N7176C is the only global ROM available until now.
I am going to flush back to Chinese edition, to get updated.

Have any of your HW2 4g updated? My watch is still showed Android 7.1.1 and the same build no. I believe N7176C is the latest build.
But this morning have noted some changes to my watch. I went to about to check system update. It shows the same message "System is up to date". But the background is completely black with a blue tick. Previously, the background is green and tick is white. Another difference is a very small circle on the bottom of watch face to indicate unread messages. Did any one notice those changes?
