We had an issue earlier where some devices could not be updated OTA. Wanted to test all the parts before adding these devices to the officially supported list
I will be updating the download locations for these builds over the next couple of hours.
haha but when we flash it manually, will an update show up in the OTA updater? Because if we have the last build, there will be no update right? So how do we test:)?
edit: just did a dirty flash of the new build on my a3xelte: it’s working well, as always, but no updates are showing up. But I think that may be because of above, that I now have the most recent build (10 aug). I used the build was TWRP 3.4.0-0
After a few users have flashed it I can start a new build for all devices.
Once the build is complete and published on the ecloud it will show up on these test builds.
I have still not completed uploading the 0.10 builds for all devices …May take me the whole of today as well. So OTA builds will be made by 14 Aug
User will need to flash these manually the first time
The next test builds should appear OTA
Will be running a new test build most probably tomorrow for all devices which should show up on these v0.10-p-xxxx test builds.
Hi @Manoj, Flashed version 0.10-p- test build to Xperia XA2 (pioneer) yesterday and Oneplus 3T just now; same twrp versions as previously. All looking good so far…
For both devices I didn’t format data this time and I’m hoping that won’t handicap the updater improvements? If it does I’ll do clean installs.
Thanks for the info @chrisrg …I am waiting for the merge of the eRecovery code as well into the branch before I create another build for all devices. That way we can test two issues with one build
OTA updates
eRecovery
Was expecting the merge to happen yesterday but due to some reasons it got delayed and pushed forward. Hope to get that done today and start the test builds again for all 49 devices.
Took the OTA update on Xperia XA2 (pioneer) this morning and it seamlessly installed to e-0.10-p-20200814…test etc.
Powered off to check recovery: it’s Lineage recovery, no apparent change.
I was curious to see if the other slot would boot up to the previous test install and yes it does. Hooray! Checked the recovery here also, and it’s Lineage too as you’d expect.
The XA2 is in a very good state today it would seem, thanks to all of your hard work, for which I am very grateful, thank you.
Thanks for confirming the OTA part worked.
On the eRecovery bit we have an issue and it could not be released for Pie devices as yet. Anyway one step at a time.
The XA2 now can take a step into the official support list.
For your information: Oneplus3T on 0.10-p- has not yet detected the OTA. Could the installation method used to install the latest build (no wipe/format data) be hampering this in any way?
The Pixel XL will have a test build on Android 10 once /e/ will be ready for this Android version. Expect it in October (to give you an idea, it might change).
Hi @chrisrg I have started a new test build just for the oneplus3 . It would take about 3 hours. Once complete you should be able to see it in the OTA.
