Factory images are up now.

I am about to flash and see if we have any kernel issues on it.

Can we have this on slot a if I have TWRP on slot a too?

TWRP is flashed to both slots. Thats the way it works.

So my question is this. If I fastboot flash this to slot A can we still Access TWRP? Will this write over the recovery? So do I make sure when I boot into bootloader that it shows slot B?

1-It remains to be seen if twrp works with this beta?
2-The beta or any flash of a boot image will overwrite twrp. Elemental x would be an exception.
3-If your flashing this beta, it wouldn't matter what slot you are in. You would have to wipe data anyway. If you don't want issues

Anyone get this thing running? Any feedback?

I would totally agree with that. See how it goes for other folks and what new features come with it. I always wait and see what people are saying then take it for a spin. Then I always end up back on PN, Uber or DU. Haha!

Nice, thank you. I figured the first two would. Wasn't sure about custom kernels. With this device you never know. Any new features?

It could be just me, but double tap to trigger ambient display seems to be more responsive. Again, it could just be me. Has anyone else noticed anything new?

If i flash using fastboot, will it wipe my data. Been on stock since coming to pixel.

OK, so no different than Shamu. Usually I root and add custom recovery, but haven't felt the need yet with Pixel XL

Looks interesting but flashing wipes everything and waiting on confirmation if you can flash TWRP after you've used the Oneplus recovery so we can have root
Sent from my A0001 using Tapatalk
Flashed it already, here are the things I didn't like:
1) OPO doesn't charge. At all. I mean, if you connect the charger (doesn't matter if it's Power Bank or wall charger) phone will not discharge.
2) Vibration motor is active for too long for haptic feedback.
Won't be my daily driver just because of (1).

Maybe you should try to reinstall the rom?

Have you attempted to flash TWRP over Oneplus recovery after flashing the ROM since I've seen they say you can mess your phone, but what about after you've already installed the OS?

Android N update NPD35K

Just got NPD35K pushed to my phone. Hopefully some new stuff from the Google I/O?
I thought I wouldn't be able to receive updates with a rooted device and a custom kernel. Is this the new way of Android N system image pushing?
Apparently this is now the actual beta. And no longer a preview version. This counts as preview 3.

Just received it also. Great ... exciting!
Got it here too,so far,so good!!!

I've never once taken an ota but I'm tempted. Is it safe to accept if you're decrypted?
Sent from my angler using XDA Labs
Were you unencrypted when you updated to it? I know TWRP doesn't work when it's encrypted (on N) so I'm waiting for the factory images to be released so I can modify those and stay unencrypted, but if it works anyway I'll update ASAP.
Hello. I want to take this update too. My bootloader is locked. Though i have enabled oem unlocking and usb debugging. Can i ota update to android n beta? I mean in case i get into bootloop. I have everything stock. Nothing changed. Currently on may update mob30i.
Encryptable boot/kernel for NPD35K:

What i wanted to ask was. Should i be safe in case o run into bootloop. Or brick my device?

no google assistant though
Just Got Update
I just received Beta Version N-MR1 (NPF10C). Settings-About Phone shows Android Version 7.1.1. Support is listed as another heading under Settings.
Came thru over OTA, install went smooth, phone loaded smooth. Used the fancy new reboot button once, stuck in a boot loop. Recovery will not load either, just boot looping the google logo. Oddly cannot turn phone off in bootloader, it shuts down then starts itself up again to reboot loop, sorta funny yet annoying to have to flash back to 7.0 some bad karma here.

It's specifically only for the Pixel at this point. You can flash the Assistant mod, wipe app data, and you should get Assistant.

smooth update: just removed the -w from flash-all script, booted once, went back to TWRP to flash latest Flash Kernel + Magisk.
Fails safety net for me no more Google pay
1. Can I flash this (removing -w) over july 8.1.0 and keep all my apps and settings?
2. Is it already good enough as a daily driver?

You will need to perform a full backup, transfer the twrp folder to PC, flash vendor image, then flash twrp,then transfer over backup to restore.
After two cycles from 100-0. With latest ElementalX kernel and Helix engine.

have you tried to install a custome kernel? if i remember right, it should be enough to install a kernel for that..
I flashed it and in my enthousiasm forgot to remove the -w so it became a clean install...
DP4 is already a major upgrade over 8.1.0 with lots of new features. The portrait mode in the new camera app is great and also no intermittent wifi drops anymore.
Indeed its good enough as a daily driver so I'm staying on it now.

June security update is out for Pixel 3a

Installing the update right now. It'll be the first security update for Pixel 3a.
Here's a link with more details and download links, no 3a specific fixes in the June patch.

Thanks. I checked around 9 EDT but nothing new. Still locked so sideloaded.
I have a T-Mobile 3a (locked bootloader). I sideloaded the beta q but want to go back to pie. Can I sideload the ota to go back to pie?

Nah. Check his first post. He's updated to the June modded boot.img. Save yourself since time and data because the OTA does not include the boot img that I could find. I downloaded the factory image to get it. Then I downloaded the OTA. Ugh. Almost 3gb if data by the time I was finished.

He has a VZW Pixel 3a. You can't fastboot a factory image with a locked bootloader. You can only sideload an OTA so he will need to wait in order to unenroll from the beta. Couple more days I think at the most.
Anyone else feel like the Multi tasking UI on the 3a has become faster after the update? Feels snappier to me

I think so. I have noticed you can swipe up from a bigger portion of the screen to show the appdrawer too. Now I can swipe up from the lower row of icons, and I think that before the update I had to swipe from the icon menu.
How do you even sideload the OTA ? When I do adb reboot recovery I just get a no command screen :/
EDIT: NVM Figured that out. When I sideload the OTA, I just get a signature verification failed error. I have a Tmobile 3a
Edit 2: I am dumb. I had the full image instead of OTA. Getting the OTA worked.
So i download the latest modded version on from pnabj "PQ3B.190605.006" then install it using this method "fastboot flash boot "whatever the boot.img is named" from the root guide and thats it?

If you have updated to the June security version and want to obtain root, then yes, flash the specific modified boot image. Then open the Magisk app and patch your boot image to complete the process.
