February Update Install failed - Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers

Hello, i had Dec 5 OTA + Magisk rooted device.
i tried to update but it said failed. so i uninstalled magisk and restored to stock boot.img but still saying update failed.
someone said to relock bootloader. i tried to relock bootloader and my data got erased.
even after that i tried to update OTA and im still getting failed update.
i dont know what to do now. can anyone please help me.

i have the same problem
help us please

after doing a bit of searching i fixed it.
i simply flashed my device with Stock Rom 10.0.0.2 using Mi Flash Tool. (there are plenty of youtube tutorials).
after that my device installed the OTA updaet without any error.
after that i rooted my device with Magisk. [patched_boot is already been posted on this forum]
so far, haven't come across any problem. Just not satisfied with the volume update. i had a magisk module for low volume fix which worked better.

What's really needed is full images from Xiaomi, so we can start flashing them manually without worrying about OTAs
See how well the DAISY thread is being maintained https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a2-lite/how-to/ota-v9-6-4-0-odlmiff-t3823913

pblem with restart's and stuck device

hi
all, i have nexus 6 device with 6.0 MRA58R and open bootloader and it was update by the device from google,still before that i try to do root and didn't succeedwith 5.1, so i go back to 5.1 and it was update as i said but the device is stuck by the start or just by regular use...something is wrong and i don't know what, there is also sound when it stuck like A screech sound and it stuck
what to do next?
thanks
If your bootloader is unlocked, as mentioned in your other thread, download a stock image from Google and flash its components (except userdata.img) using ADB. As a result of your tinkering, something got messed up on the device, and flashing the stock image should resolve that.
tried these ...didn't help,it stuckes even after good flash with adb cause with OTA it stucks at the middle
You flashed MMB29Q from the shamu section of the page here? That is the absolute latest factory image available. There should be NO OTA update available.
first of all i tried to download the OTA cause i was with root and did unroot and i want to saw thet it get's the OTA's correct ,then i installed the version as you write, but still when i start the wifi or in regular use the device can be stuck and restart.
any idea to solve it? even in safe mode it stucks
No, not really. Like you mention in your other thread, it appears to be a hardware problem.
For the record, downloading the OTA updates is a waste of time when the latest factory image is available. When you get your replacement device, assuming it's not already on 6.0.1, install the image from the link I gave you, as it already includes in the image all the updates Google has released for Android 6.0.1.

Any help please !? OTA updates

im facing a problem with september update installation ( or any OTA update because i've flashed the 9.6.9 version and was trying to update the august update and it gave me the same problem so i flashed it manually )
so.. when i was at 9.6.10 " august update " i've unlocked the boootloader and rooted the device and enabled the camera2api.. after that i have uninstalled the root and flashed the stock boot and locked the bootloader... but recently i have faced that problem when i was trying to install the september update and it alaways give me installaiton failed at the same time i installed SafetyNet check app and i found that the SafetyNet check gave me failed !? i dont know why that happens while i removed the root and relocked the bootloader !! and i have flashed the stock rom many times and nothing changes !. so please help me and tell me what should i do .. thanks in advance.
P.S : i installed a root checker and it says that the device is not rooted now
experiencing the same problem, but i didn't even manage to hold the HAL3 enabled 1. Every time i unroot, i lose the property (used setprop persist.camera.HAL3.enabled 1 instead of changing build.prop, maybe that has something to do with it). Anyway, even after unrooting i sometimes get the error that the OTA won't install. I don't know if there is already a root out for the september update?

[SOLVED] Pie october update failed

I have TA-1046 with unlocked bootloader (and uninstalled Magisk before try Pie update)...
Pie stable i installed before using adb sideload OTA file (B2N-322C-0-00WW-B01-update.zip) from this thread
Before some days i have notification with OTA October update, but instalation after download failed(screenshot), tryed several times and on more different wifi connection...
Then i also try adb sideload file B2N-322D-0-00WW-B01-update.zip (from same thread as before install Pie stable) and too failed, this method show more info(screenshot):
"Package is for source build 00WW_3_22C but expected 0001_3_22C
Installation aborted"
In Settings/System/AboutPhone/AndroidVersion i have right build_number: 00WW_3_22C (screenshot)
I read in some other threads that someone have same problem, but without reaction, then a create rather this dedicated thread...
Anyone have same problem? And anyone have please sollution for this?
Please don't write if don't have this problem or tips for sollution, keep this thread clean for finding sollution, thanks
UPDATE: Thanks to TomThePhysicist is problem solved, here is howto...
Same problem and I didn't find any solution yet.
Try this : (works for a similar error in 6.1+):
Rename the package to B2N-322D-0-00WW-B01-322C-0-00WW-B01-update.zip
Put in root of internal storage, go to dialer and dial *#*#874#*#*
If it can't find the file, use the original name and re-dial.
I hope it works, please confirm so others can use it.

Are you rooted? It's weird, it works for some people but not for others.
I'm trying to guess it it's variant specific or maybe having root is the issue (it's expected on a rooted system).

i have rooted (using install official Magisk zip release in only booted TWRP) before, when i see first OTA update notification, then i unroot using MagiskManager Uninstall Complete...
then all update i trying (OTA wireless, adb sideload, dial and reboot with file in root with your filename) is without Magisk/MagiskManager installed, "only" with unlocked bootloader

I might have a clue on this. I upgraded to Pie from a rooted state (the OTA allowed me exceptionally to upgrade from Oreo to Pie and I said why not!). Now after installing Magisk Manager I noticed that Magisk is already installed! This might be the reason behind this annoying error.

ok, i go try OTA dial update after install Magisk
edit: same as without Magisk, failed at 17%...
Of course it should fail. What I mean is it fails because we don't have stock boot. Like in Oreo when it was not possible to use OTA with patched boot, it is not available for Pie. They just made it available for Oreo to Pie update and that has messed everything up.

I was on an unlocked bootloader with Magisk installed and encountered the same update failed error. I tried uninstalling Magisk via total uninstall and ended up soft bricking the phone, unable to apply any OTA update. The firmware flashing tool also did not work. The good news was I was still able to access Download Mode and Fastboot mode. I ended up sending it to the service center after relocking the bootloader and they flashed the official firmware at no charge. The phone then updated to Pie on first boot after downloading the update, and then wanted to update to the October update after a restart. The weird thing is the October update failed again, inspite of locked bootloader and no root! However, when I checked the phone few hours later, the update seems to have gone thru just fine. Not sure why this October update is a bit wonky. I agree with the above poster; not having patched boot is the issue here. However, we should be able to get this by extracting payload.bin and using magisk to patch the file.
For now, I am back on a locked bootloader and no root. Awaiting more stability in the unlocking/rooting scene before I try again. Unless Nokia releases official bootloader unlock, I will have to firmware flash back to Oreo, as both A/B partitions are occupied by Pie and the hack used to unlock the bootloader has already been patched on Pie.
Hi. Thanks for the input and your detailed comment. The thing is there is no service centre here in my country! So I should do everything my own. But may I ask how you relocked the bootloader?

Sure, I followed the instructions here https://www.techmesto.com/lock-nokia-android-bootloader/ . However, if there is no service center in your country and you don't plan to do a warranty claim, I've read that relocking the bootloader will prevent you from using the firmware flashing tool.

Installing OTAs on the Pixel 3 XL with Magisk Installed

Hello all,
On my new Pixel 3 XL, I installed Magisk immediately after doing the initial setup. I then tried taking the January 2019 OTA update (the phone was running the original build from September 2018) and installing the update using the instructions here for devices with A/B partitions: https://topjohnwu.github.io/Magisk/tutorials.html#ota-installation
This however did not work and the update still failed to install. I ended up doing the upgrade manually via the bootloader but I would like to ask about how to handle this process for future updates. I am running the latest stable version of Magisk.
Thank you
Is it possible that /system or /vendor have been altered in some way? That would cause the OTA to fail...

Well I do use the Internal Audio Plugin which may write stuff to /system and/or /vendor. I am not sure though. I do not remember if I had it installed at that point though. I do have it installed now though. If it turns out that the app is the reason it's not working, hopefully I will be able to uninstall it when trying the OTA again.
Hi all. I have searched for information and have seen a lot and varied. I come to confirm more than anything and to know if you have a clear idea.
I have my 3XL pixel rooted with Magisk.
First question: With the root of magisk the system does NOT detect the new monthly update updates. Is this normal? I understood that I would detect it but that it would NOT let me update it.
As a result of that question I found this other ...
https : // topjohnwu. github.io/Magisk/tutorials.html (sorry, there are spaces)
I'm not sure if this tutorial is valid for the Pixel 3XL. I have reproduced it and ... or something I have not done well or is not compatible with our device.
The objective of all this is to know if, with the rooted phone, OTAs can be detected and, in case the answer is no, to know if there is any method like the one that Magisk proposes without having to download the OTA, install by the recovery and re-root with twrp.
I have not used any magisk module, but I do have Es File Explorer installed with root viewer, titanium backup and Swift Insaller. I do not think this has modified / system or / vendor.
Thanks and best regards!

Hello,
The issue that you are describing is identical to what I observed during the February OTA update. It was not showing up on my phone. Supposedly if you wait long enough it will be detected, but I got impatient with waiting and just did it manually. It is worth noting however that when I got my Pixel 3 XL (I got it in January), I rooted it immediately before installing the January patches, and the behavior that you described as what should have happened is what I observed: the update was detected, but I could not install it. The odd thing about it was that even after uninstalling Magisk, I still could not get it to install and therefore ended up manually sideloading that update as well. It is worth noting that as part of that sideload, I chose to wipe the phone so that whatever modifications I must have made to /system or /vendor would be gone.
I am sorry that I could not provide any real help for this issue since I have been sideloading as a workaround. If you come up with a real solution to this, please let me know. Otherwise, you may want to just sideload manually.

I rerooted the phone with Magisk and it's perfect.
Unfortunately, with the March update, my 3LX pixel will not notify me of this update and I will have to install it manually with adb.
Then I will have to manually re-root magisk. I can not find a way to make the magisk tutorial work so I do not have to do this manual process. I believe that Magisk modifies /vendor and /system and "to uninstall magisk with the boot_patched", to the new pixel 3 or to Android Pie does not matter to him because he knows what is happening.

I installed the March update via recovery. No problem. Then I have reinstalled Magisk with the TWRP image.
I still do not know how to make this tutorial for Pixel 3 work
https://topjohnwu.github.io/Magisk/tutorials.html#ota-installation
Has anyone succeeded? The objective is:
- That the rooted phone detects the OTA.
- To be able to uninstall the root with the Magisk Manager application.
- To be able to install the OTA like any normal user.
- Be able to reinstall the root via Magisk Manager.
All without the need of adb, sideload, recovery, TWRP or anything "technical".
Greetings!

I also had to install the update via recovery, as the option to use the built-in updater was not detecting that the update was available again. Perhaps it's time we ask @topjohnwu Magisk Queries/ @topjohnwu about this?
I've seen (and commented in) at least 4 previous threads reporting the same issue with OTA updates and none of them have been taken seriously or prompted any kind of further investigation. Oh well, 5th time lucky perhaps?
Anyway, I have exactly the same issue with my Pixel 2; I used to receive notifications for OTA updates back when I was running on Oreo with Magisk, but after updating to Pie in September 2018 I haven't received a single new OTA notification.
Pie was installed from the factory image, including a device wipe, so it was a completely fresh start. I've also tried reflashing system.img and vendor.img just in case those partitions somehow got modified at some point, but it made no difference. My device simply will not detect new OTA updates, so my only option is to sideload the update and reflash magisk every month.
As per a previous post of mine, I found other reports of the same issue on Reddit and the common factors seemed to be Pixel devices, Pie and Magisk.

What's odd about my situation is that when I first got the phone and rooted the image that it came with (September 2018), I did get the OTA notification. I just could not get it to install even after following the Magisk uninstallation steps provided in the official Magisk tutorial. It's only a minor inconvenience and I can live with it, but the fact that it happens still bothers me.

This happened to me too. I put the root and the first OTA did arrive but, because I had root, I could not install. I had to do it manually with adb.

Yes, but with my rooted device the notification of NEW UPDATE does not appear. I know I can not INSTALL it, but is there also no update notice? This is what I need. An update notice.
With that warning I will be able to patch the boot image with magisk and then I will be able to download and install the OTA. Then re-rooted and ready.

Question OTA Update Fails With "Installation Problem"

NE2215, Rooted running .c22.
I have followed all the rules, unrooting with Magisk restoring images, then either using the system updater to download the OTA, or the local update apk to install an OTA. In every instance, whether it is c26 or c30, it fails with the unhelpful message "Installation Problem"
I suspect that this was caused by my having at one point installed the unofficial TWRP recovery, which I later uninstalled and replaced with the stock recovery. I had thought returning to the stock recovery would solve the problem, but it continues to exist.
Can someone suggest the steps I should take to get the phone to take the update? This was not a problem when OnePlus was providing full installs, but I'm having no luck at all with the recent updates.
Many thanks for your help.
Maybe Oxygen Updater has full download link?

I would try to flash stock boot.img without any root etc., reflash stock recovery if possible and then download FULL ota link using oxygen updater and then via localupdate.apk try to install it.
Also you can try to use this software:
OPPO System Upgrade Tool | OPPO Global
Only 5 steps to upgrade to new system. Always optimize your OPPO device when there's the latest software update available to enhance the system stability.
www.oppo.com
It should be possible to upgrade your OP10P with it even with OxygenOS without issues.
Hopefully some of those will help you to upgrade.

Many thanks, will give both suggestions a shot. But isn't the OTA update by definition only a partial update? My problem really arose when OnePlus stopped releasing full updates. Or am I confusing something?

Not necessarily. It can be partial and full, too.
Full updates are released in case of any issues, also rooted devices need full update files.
Give it a shot and hopefully you will be successful.

When I unroot (restoring images) and then try to boot the stock boot image, (just to check before actually flashing it,) it goes into Crashdump mode. Any ideas how to fix? (Since I just booted rather than flashed, I'm out of Crashdump mode but back to square one.)

You can try complete uninstall of the magisk by clicking on that button in the app, but better have a backup of your data if anything goes wrong.
Or you can just download the full Ota zip using oxygen updater and use that local update apk if it goes through. Also use that local update apk for android 13 as there is for A12 and for A13. It might solve the issue too.
Did you flash stock recovery to both slots the last time?

yes. you flashed the slot you were on and was able to update since you have the stock images, but now you're on the other slot that probably still has twrp.

Okay, I flashed stock recovery to both slots, but still update fails. The system says that I am running c.22, and tries to update me to c.30. On the other hand, the Oxygen Updater says "You need to install c22 first, and then update to subsequent updates via incremental." It then proceeds to download c.22. (I should note that at one time c.26 was installed; Not sure how we dropped back to c.22.)
Regardless, the update fails, even using the local update for Android 13.
Any ideas? I don't like the idea of being stuck forever on c.22.

idk. safest way is probably change regions or wait for a full rom. I have c.30 ota download links in my update post, but idk if you want to chance it.
