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.

It happened with me but at that time my device was restoring applications after hard reset. Once the restoration was completed, it auto installed.

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.
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.

Nooooo Sorry, maybe I explained wrong.
I want to say that, like in January and February, when the March update is released, the Pixel 3XL, as it is rooted, will not recognize it. It will not give me the notice of a new update.
Better like that?

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.

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.
I went to check for system updates today and my pixel initially started to download the latest patch and then after a couple of seconds went straight to telling me that there is no update available. Anyone else have this issue and/or successfully update to the March 2020 OTA via the process below?
Updating Phone Once Rooted:
- Check for device updates, when found:
- Tap uninstall in 'Magisk Manager'
- Tap restore images
- install OTA (do not reboot)
- Back to magisk, tap install > select install to inactive slot
- When magisk installed, press the reboot button in it. It'll force to the other slot AND you'll be updated AND rooted​
I assume I should be able to go under 'System' -> 'Advanced' and get the OTA under 'System Update'. I've already disabled 'Automatic system updates' under 'Developer Options'. Just making sure google is somehow not blocking the update on rooted devices and that the above steps are correct. Thank you in advance!
Found similar thing on reddit here.
It's very common for unlocked and rooted Pixel phones to not "find" or complete the monthly OTA updates. There must be some sort of check in the OTA process that fails on rooted phones.
You should get familiar with the "sideloading" process of manually flashing OTA images.
Here is a set of instructions that I wrote in my Pixel 3a rooting guide. The process is exactly the same for the Pixel 4 series.
Taking an OTA update should be as easy as the above instructions. However there is another option available to install an OTA update called sideloading. Sometimes the update doesn't appear on the phone in a timely manner and you may want to manually install the update. Other times the OTA update seems to fail for some reason. In the end, you may decide to sideload the OTA instead of trying get it via the update feature on the phone. Surprisingly, it's actually faster to install the update via sideloading than it will be to take the OTA normally. I'll walk through the sideloading steps.....
Optional Step 1 - Uninstall Magisk (so that it restores the stock boot.img). If you find yourself unable to boot into recovery, you will have to restore the stock boot.img. I've run into this issue on some Android 10 images, but not all.
Step 2 - Download to your computer the correct OTA image from here
Step 3 - Connect to your phone via ADB on your computer. You should see the device listed if you type the command "adb devices".
Step 4 - Boot your phone into recovery (type the command "adb reboot recovery").
Step 5 - The phone will have a green android robot with a red sign over it's open access panel. Press the power button and then the volume up button while still holding down the power button.
Step 6 - Select "Apply update from ADB" using the volume buttons to highlight the choice and the power button to select it to enter the sideload mode.
Step 7 - Using your computer, type "adb sideload ota_file.zip" where ota_file.zip is the name of the OTA file you downloaded in step 2.
Step 8 - Once the update finishes, reboot the phone to complete the update process. (See note below about initial boot times).
Step 9 - To obtain root again, please use one of the two root methods listed above
Please note, the initial boot may take quite a while. I've seen the process take upwards of 20 minutes and longer. I think part of the reason it can take so long is that it optimizes the apps during this boot process. The more apps you have, the longer the process may take. When you take a regular OTA update, the phone will change to a screen where is specifically tells you it is optimizing the apps and counts up as the apps are optimized to give you status updates. When you use the the side-load method, it all happens with just the regular boot animation running and without any status updates. Because of this, it is easy to assume something has gone wrong with the boot process while in fact the phone is working through the process normally. If it isn't boot looping (showing the initial power screen before moving back to the boot animation), everything is fine and you just be patient and let the phone complete the process.

Thanks for the reply! I'm very used to sideloading/dirty flashing the updates, was hoping to use the Magisk method . Seems like google is getting smarter with their updates. I am guessing the current inability to see the OTA is due to the updates with google pay and google wanting to ensure banks it is safe.
I just finished sideloading March's OTA and patching the boot.img and everything seems to work, just a bit more effort than leveraging Magisk.
I had something funny happen. I was rooted in the January update. I just decided to check for updates. It always shows there's an update but always fails to download it. This time it downloaded and installed it. All the way to the March update. This unrooted me. I still had Magisk and all my modules but it was disabled.
I've tried the usual methods to reroot it. I downloaded the March update. Extracted the boot image. Patched it in Magisk. Put it on my PC and flashed it. The phone restarted and displayed the Google start up screen and a waiting bar like it was optimizing apps. But when that was done it went to a black screen and never left it. I put the phone down and came back to it over an hour later and it was still black. I had to reflash the stock OTA update.
Anyone know why that happened?
I experienced same exact thing. Looks like it saw the update at first then after a few seconds reverted to No updates available. About to try uninstalling Magisk, if no bueno, then gonna just sideload.

Did you disable 'Automatic system updates' on the phone? That should still allow the download to occur just not the install. It seems like google got smarter with this update to detect rooted phones.

Yes I disabled automatic updates. It didn't do it automatically, I clicked the check for update button. Normally when I do that it says there's a download available and then I know to check online for the flash file. This time it updated without stopping.

The phone restarted and displayed the Google start up screen and a waiting bar like it was optimizing apps. But when that was done it went to a black screen and never left it. I put the phone down and came back to it over an hour later and it was still black. I had to reflash the stock OTA update.
Anyone know why that happened?

I would flash Magisk again before you restart.
I still can't get my phone rooted. I'm not sure what's going on. I wonder if other people have been able to successfully root the March update.
I successfully rooted the March update, using the boot.img method.

I got it rooted. It ended up taking a factory reset. It must have been some file interfering with the process. Once I reset my phone the rooting process went without incident.
As I'm searching for a more Phone based update wy, I'm thinking about to use maybe the Implemented OTA Process, but download the OTA-File manually... But for that We must know,how the OTA process is working. Did someone know:
- Where the update stores the download fine (I found a OTA and a OTA_Packge directory in the /Data/ folder)
- is there maybe a setting or information which must be injected somewhere (maybe a txt file)
- after that the ota update could then maybe started by hand
Has someone informations on that? If maybe someone where the ota still works and stil has root could check the files and places?

I unlocked the bootloader, sideloaded the August 2020 OTA and flashed the patched boot image. Kept bootlooping, then I restored to the original, booted in, installed Magisk Manager and then flashed the patched image again. Just leaving this here in case it helps someone.
so my bramble spazzed and did a soft reboot and then the system ui wouldn't load (I was able to use the phone, but not the status bar, navbar). i disabled the lockscreen security and removed my magisk modules. then i tried flashing the stock firmware (december) *after erasing the -w*, then i tried sideloading the december ota via recovery, then i tried to do the same withe november versions and then again the december, you get the idea. nothing doing, the best i get is it'll get to "pixel is loading" for a split second then go to bootloader. anyone have any suggestions for me?
sorry, asking on the P5 forum because the phones are so similar the P5 forum is more active.

Thanks, yes I was. I ended up dirty flashing the stock firmware from December and from November and sideloading otas from both months over and over till it was working again. Took all day but I saved my data. I was flashing the all carrier December image as they was the one I was on, not flashing verizon one did the trick. Something to keep in mind for next time.
Last night I did the system update and left it overnight. This morning the update wasn't installed and asked me to update again. So I started it again 3 hours ago and it's still not done. Anyone else's update taking this long?
Update: I attempted the system update again and left it overnight. This morning it's still stuck on the same installing screen.
Can someone share the Android Version screen of an unlocked Pixel 7. I think I might be updated and the update is just a bug?
Update: I determined I had an OTA update failure. So I just adb sideloaded the OTA file and it's fixed now.

I saw your previous post about wifi not staying on. So if that happening while dl. It my screw it. Because it's jumping back to network data and the setting maybe set to only update over wifi.

It's set to mobile data and that should only impact the downloading not installing. 4 hours now and still stuck. I'm considering rebooting at this point.
I had the same problem, i rebooted and it all seems gone. But I checked the factory images and everything is up to date.

That didn't work. I'm back at the same screen as before after hitting restart now. I also noticed that Google play system update is on July.

My Google play system also states that too.
Well I give up. I restarted and I'm just not going to update for the time being.

I think I'm actually fully updated and its just a bug?
@ern88 can you share a screenshot of your Android Version screen please. I'm trying to determine if I'm fully updated and its just a bug.

Here is the ver I'm on. I see you still are on the factory version. Not the Oct update. By chance. Did your carrier give you a new sim card with your phone? Telus have me a new sim card when I bought the phone.

Thanks! I determined I had an OTA
update failure. So I just adb sideloaded the OTA file and it's fixed now.
So I'm having the same issue, but potentially for a different reason.
I'm rooted. Typically to resolve this issue, you
1 - select Uninstall Magisk/Restore Image. This restores your stock boot image
2 - Install OTA update
3 - You then install Magisk again once the update completes and select "flash to inactive slot" prior to reboot.
The Uninstall/image restore in Magisk is not removing Magisk and the update still fails.
I'm wondering if it is restoring the boot.img, when it is the initboot.img that has been modified.
I could be wrong, just thought I'd note my issue.

They've covered this in the two big threads regarding unlocking / rooting in the 7 Pro-forum.
