I have a completely stock Nexus 9. My wife's Nexus 9 took Android 7 a couple of weeks ago. I was checking my today and noticed that mine is still sitting at the June 1, 2016 security patch level. When I check for a system update it says my system is up to date. I tried booting to recovery and clearing the cache, but it still isn't seeing the need to update. Is there anything else I can do to "clear" the system so it can realize there are a few security updates to install (and of course android 7)? I am just trying to avoid installing ADB and such to install it manually.
Thanks in advance.
Is yours an LTE, by any chance? N still isn't posted. The easiest for you to do at this point is join the beta, take the download/install, then, remove your tab from beta. As long as it installs nougat NRD90R , it won't wipe your device when you uninstall. In fact, even before, it wouldn't wipe your device unless you installed the 6.1 package Google would send after leaving nougat.

To clarify when I said leave beta, I didn't mean uninstall but rather unregister your device from Beta program.. That would have been confusing.

Where did you email? I called them and got double-talk. So, I'll email them. It probably takes X number of calls/emails from disappointed customers before they bother to look into it.
I never got 5.02. When I initially booted the device last December, it automatically OTA'd 5.01. I was hoping I'd get an OTA that would take from to 5.1.1 from 5.01.

Guys, this is XDA. It's pretty easy to update yourself with the factory image. No need for the ota. Just flash the bootloader, system and boot images. No lose of data either.

No loss of data assume the bootloader is already unlocked. In my case, it's still locked. Obviously, I can back up everything and flash, but part of the reason for buying a Nexus device includes prompt OTAs.
The device downloaded and installed 5.0.2 without a hitch. On reboot, it downloaded the 5.1.1 OTA, but errored on installation. I cleared the cache, rebooted and it repeated the process with the same error result. Nexus tech support, when they hear OTA, pretty much say "we know nothing."
So, I'll backup the device as best I can, do a factory reset and try the OTA again.
Now, I can unlock the device and ADB the images manually. Why not do so? You'd have to be married to understand. This is my wife's tablet. If I unlock the bootloader or root it or do anything other than "normal" Google stuff and anything ever goes amiss, my lovely wife will complain that my tinkering has caused her Candy Crush and Facebook to malfunction.
hello guys 1 month ago i had fire os 5 with xposed , play store , hdxposed it was rooted it was the july 2015 dev build it was from "ariel" when i booted my kindle up it said welcome to fire os 5 i clicked cancel because i already had and i was greeted to a new homescreen i tried google play store it said you need a google play account
but i didnt know how to fill in i tried a rooted program "game guardian" is said no root pls help me how do i revert back
You skipped the step to block OTA updates when you rooted. You can't "revert back." See this thread. At this time, we have no method to install lollipop on OS versions above 4.5.3. You may be able to get rooted 4.5.5, but I'm not sure it will work. Far as I know no one has tried it since the bricking started.
BTW. When did you get the upgrade?

i got the upgrade in august 2015, and i did block com.amazonotaverifier after i got the rooted fire os 5 and then 3 days ago i left it on charge and yeah it updated itself to 5.0.1.
has anyone lost root updating to current this month? i know my v10 became an ad filled, stock navbar, paper weight after it's last forced update.
I'm curious about this as well.
I finally got around to rooting my Stylo 3 Plus for the first time over the weekend, after closely following the developments in this forum for the past 6 months. It took a lot of trial and error and reflashing of TWRP before I got the timing down right, but I finally got it rooted (using Magisk 15.2).
And of course, luck would have it that within a few hours of my rooting success, a new system update notification (which I had never heard of until now!), pops up and asks me to restart to install it. I am using Titanium Backup to force stop the particular Google service involved, which makes the notification go away and I can reboot without it upgrading. But it always come back within 24 hours or so.
Has anyone installed this update yet (MP45010f) and successfully re-rooted? I'm currently using Magisk 15.2 with systemless hosts, Ad-Away, and Xposed with Greenify & MinMinGuard enabled. I would welcome any advice on how to proceed after the update to restore root and continue using Ad-Away, Xposed, etc. Or even how to disable the update notification for good so I can stay on MP45010e a while longer.

I Installed the 10f update.
On the download page the date was listed as March something.
While updating with LG Bridge, it was listed as Feb 22.
After it was installed (update 10f for LGMP450) the security patch date was listed as Feb 01.
I rooted and installed TWRP (and removed RCTD). Everything seems fine.
I am reverting back to my old install. Because i have made a million little tweaks, that would take forever to redo on a new install. I just wanted to see if everything still works (and it appears it does).
PS - The first time i updated this phone (back around Oct2017) the LG Bridge erased my SD storage. This time it left all of my installed apps in place. Also, this appears to simply be a google security update. No firmware changes from LG.
I thought a system update wouldn't happen if youv done rooted your phone the only way back on the day was to reflash stock ROM to get the update

yeah thats what i did was revert back to stock so u can update then i update it then re rooted my phone
if you update using the LG Bridge computer program, it will update a rooted phone. but you will need to reroot afterward.

Thanks for testing this out. If you don't mind me asking, which method do you use to root? And do you also use Xposed?
To anyone else who might know, does everything Magisk- or Xposed-related get removed by the security updates (frameworks, modules, configs, etc)? Just trying to get an idea how many of my modules I should expect to reinstall and configure from scratch if I decide to update from 10e to 10f.

Yeah, I thought this was kind of weird too. I've never used LG Bridge to update. The notification just appeared on my phone shortly after rooting.
Is Xposed only for Magisk or can it be used on the rom, if so can I get a link to how to do so
LG Bridge

Im using Magisk 16.1 (no Xposed) and TWRP 3.2.1
I have not run into any issues.
It appears to simply be a security patch update.
I doubt it should cause any new headaches.
The original method still works to reroot and reinstall TWRP.
Using the LG Bridge program is about as easy as an update can be. You install it on your computer, plug your phone into the computer, and click "update" on the computer program. Its all automatic.
Haven't seen anything about a March update. Aren't they released on the 1st Monday of the month?

Yo last month the update came on 5 february (tuesday)
it's live.
https://source.android.com/security/bulletin/pixel/2019-03-01.html
Updated and re-rooted the wife's Pixel 3 today. Magisk 18.1 with TWRP 3.2.3-0 (.img only). ElementalX 1.05 with EX Kernel Manager direct flash. All worked normally. Couldn't do my 3XL this month since I am on dotOS. I did have to clear cache and app data (hide with Magisk of course) to get Play Store to re-certify the device which then showed a Google Pay update. Even though they claim no security fixes, clearly there are some.

The Feb bulletin was published on Mon the 4th. Patch is dated the 5th. I had read they always patch on the first Mon, but apparently sometimes not quite. March bulletin is out, so good to go.
Guys, upon checking for updates, my phone seems to be stuck on "Preparing system update.." while the spinner just keeps going.. Any suggestions?

I'm not sure you want to update at this time. I just did the update and now my screen has that weird green flash when ambient display is on. Might want to hold off if you can.

Actually I just sideloaded it and all seems well! I'll keep an eye out for the aforementioned issue though.. thanks!
Personally, I'm not seeing a noticeable camera app loading time improvement..

For those rooted with twrp, did you download the 1.7gb zip from Google and flash through fastboot, then reinstall twrp and magisk?

I just got my pixel 3 today. It had the January update installed on it. I downloaded the March factory image, removed the -w and flashed via fastboot and then unlocked bootloader and installed twrp and magisk 18.1 with no issues. I was not rooted before hand though being as the phone was brand new. Only issue is slow charging at the moment but I'm not sure if it was like that before the update since I rooted right away out of the box.
I have my pixel 3 rooted and TWRP installed. Can i flash the march ota.zip via TWRP and then install TWRP and magisk again? will that work?
Would love if someone could share their patched_boot.img please
Here Ya go (problem uploading
I tried to do the update yesterday (like i've done it the last 3 times before), but came into bootloops to the point, where i had to factory reset everything. After resetting and reflashing in fastboot, it would start again. Today I wanted to flash magisk 18.1 and went straight into bootloops again. So that seems to be the problem. How do I get the uninmod.zip from my phone to my computer? I tried the command push adb "file" "sdcard" but it gave me a "adb: error: failed to get feature set: no devices/emulators found"
thanks for your help!

GPay now seems to be reporting if your device in not showing as certified by Play Store. Hide Pay store, clear app cache and data for Play Store, and reopen it and check settings to see if it is certified. Did you get the new GPay the other day? That update didn't show immediately after the update because you needed to re-certify.

Is GPay reporting the root when you open the app or when you touch a terminal to pay? My wife's Pixel 3 (which I updated) is able to open GPay with no issue, but she hasn't used it at a terminal since the update. My 3XL is running a custom ROM, so it got the GPay update but not the March update. Mine also opens fine but I haven't used it at a terminal.
I am rooted with Magisk and running the Raviole kernel. My Play System will not update past July no matter what I do. I delete all but one account on my phone and followed those instructions and still nothing. I have a 24MB update available and I've tried 20 times to download and install it but on reboot I just have the same level still. Anyone have a similar issue or know of a workaround? I even did a factory image install with the update to A13...twice.
I got on September 14(!) also the 24MB update, but then it showed I am now on August patch level.
Maybe it has something to do with your kernel?
Cheers
I checked on the kernel and that shouldn’t be the issue. I don’t know if Magisk would have any effect on it. I’m kind of out of ideas for the time being.
stock unrooted, and I just got the August Play system update yesterday. Prior to that I got 3 updates that were all dated July.
have you tried installing the apk from apkmirror ?

The apk is only a "visual" update and only displays August update, too small for the complete PlaySystem Update.
But some reported after installing, it triggered something and after a while the "real" system update was downloaded and installed.
Cheers
