Lineage 15 - Vendor Image Mismatch - Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So this appeared today after updating my Lineage OS. I'm not that deep into custom Android stuff so i have no clue what to do regarding this, could anyone direct me please?
To be specific i'm getting this message:
A vendor image mismatch has been detected. Typically this means your vendor image is out of date. Please ensure your vendor image matches OPM2.171019.029.A1

I only have the OK option and after pressing it is seems the phone works normally yet I still want to resolve this.

@niirb Each months security update will come with a different vendor. So if your on the latest update of your ROM more then likely June's. You can always extract Google's firmware to get it. But usaully it gets posted somewhere in the ROMs thread. I use this site always gets updated . Flash the vendor in either fastboot or with twrp just select zip button to change to image so you can see the file in your downloads .

Thank you! So this is common and I should do this once every month or did something screw up in my update and is this just the exception?

You didn't break anything. This is completely normal since the LineageOS update doesn't update the vendor image.

Anyone have issue updating to June vendor img? I updated radio bootloader vendor via fastboot said it was installed but didn't tried TWRP same result says it installed but to no avail any suggestions thank you.

Oh I get it now yeah the developer didn't change the title to represent the next month's update that's all. General rule of thumb after a week into the month updates should have the corresponding security update.

i am having the same issue, downloaded the vendor file and moved it to twrp. when i click twrp install i can not find the file, i moved the file a second time to twrp and it asked if i want to replace it, so it must be in there somewhere. i searched the files but did not find it. any idea where it is located? thanks
edit: i downloaded the vendor file directly on the phone. the file manager shows it in the phone dl file. when i open twrp/install/download it is empty?

i run sideload and get "zip file is corrupt!" this is in linux.

When you're downloading the file in the phone, it should be in /sdcard/download/ folder
But when you're navigating on TWRP, seems you're in /sdcard/twrp/install/download folder. Just go up from TWRP and see if you can see that download folder.

Easily Apply OTA Update To Rooted Nexus 6

I had a hard time finding this information, so thought I would post a new thread!
After you root your phone, even if using standard recovery, the OTA updates will no longer install. You may get the notifications, but after it reboots to install, you will get a failed notification. Even if you uninstall root. This is because if there is any change to the system image at all, the OTA update will fail.
To install it is actually easy, just requires some legwork. I assume you understand what the bootloader is, and what adb and fastboot tools are since your phone is already rooted. If you used a toolkit, there are plenty of guides on XDA on how to install these tools manually.
Step 1 - Collect Needed Files:
Visit the Google System Images page and download the image for your existing ROM. Check your About Device page to get the exact ID, it should say something like LVY48E.
Extract the system.img file so you can flash it later.
Download the OTA image. All OTA images are listed on the Nexus 6 OTA Images thread. Find the file which upgrades "From" your current ROM id. It will only work if from matches your current image version. It will be named something like 2bef78c4a5ec8dbaa3df9d94e78af8622cd2a394.signed-shamu-LVY48F-from-LVY48E.2bef78c4.zip, and this file in particular flashes to the new LVY48F version from LVY48E version.
Step 2 - Flash Stock System Image:
This step replaces your system image with the stock system image. This will not delete your apps or other personal data, only the information stored on the system partition. The only exception is if you rooted and stored any data on this partition. Plug your phone into your computer. There is no way to do this without a PC.
Reboot into bootloader mode either from booting with POWER+VOLDOWN or via adb:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
and flash the image
Code:
fastboot erase system
fastboot flash system system.img
At this point your system is stock again (unrooted).
Step 3 - Flash Update Image:
Enter the recovery mode. You can also do this via TWRP but I will cover with stock recovery. Press Volume Up/Down until you see RECOVERY and press power to choose. You are now in recovery.
Press and hold Power and tap Volume Up once to get the recovery menu. Then use Volume Up/Down to select "apply update from ADB" and then Power to select
I had to unplug and plug my phone back in at this point to get it to show up to adb. You can confirm it is visible with the command adb devices.
Apply the OTA update file using the following command, replacing the file name with your own:
Code:
adb sideload 2bef78c4a5ec8dbaa3df9d94e78af8622cd2a394.signed-shamu-LVY48F-from-LVY48E.2bef78c4.zip
After a few minutes the sideload will complete, the phone will reboot and optimize apps, and you can verify the update worked by checking your about system page again.
To root your device again, re-install SuperSU and you're good to go.
I actually just asked about this in the T-Mobile thread, but thanks for making this. My question is, when installing system.img is there anything else you NEED to flash as well, specifically boot and/or cache?
Google has the latest stock image for T-Mobile so I was planning on flashing system and radio, but I wasn't sure if there was anything else required when flashing system.img.
I know I don't want recovery or userdata as that would replace TWRP and all my data, so I'd of course leave those out.

Nope, system.img was all that I flashed, verified it worked fine with just that.
So you just have to re-root after right?

Thanks for this guide. I've been trying to figure out how to do this exact thing. When I do the command:

I wanted to say thanks first of all for putting this up. It helps those rooted users out there that do actually want security patches applied to the system image. To answer the question above, No it does not wipe data or storage if you follow the instructions to only modify /system partition.
A note about the LMY48M update file and the above comments in the OP : This update changes the kernel (in other words), the boot.img file as well. So if you have flashed a non-stock kernel, you will need to go back to stock during the update (and I suggest just leaving it). That is the partition called boot where boot.img lives. It mainly is the kernel. The way to go back to stock (say if you flashed franco with the FKupdate tool and did not do it manually) is to simply do like above and flash it from the factory image he mentions above for 48I file.
You reboot to the bootloader (*I assume you know how*) with power and vol down button. And then the following command after flashing system.img:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
This takes you to stock LMY48I and should allow you to update now to 48M. I learned this by watching the update failure messages as well as noticed it has boot.img changed in the zip file. Hope this helps others. :good:

Open the update .zip file and go to META_INF > COM > GOOGLE > ANDROID. You will find the "updater-script" file.
Open that file using a text editor like notepad or notepad++ and delete the following text; starting from "assert ....... till the semicolon of the last getprop command.
Place that file back into the update .zip file and reflash. This should remove the status 7 error.

Honest question: why would you flash a system image and an ota when you could just flash the new system image?

By flashing just the current system image your data stays in tact. Then you can take the OTA, it will see the system image unmodified, and it will update everything for that new version without wiping data.

Easier to just flash the new system image that gets you to the same place as the OTA.

I was wondering this same exact thing, but I was assuming it was because the OTA was hitting people before that matching Google Factory Image was available. This would bring you almost back a version (to being stock) so you could take the OTA.
If the OTA is to match the same Factory Image you can get from Google, I have no idea why you'd do both steps.
Hi, I have the LNX07M, and I don't find it in the google page. Can you help me? please!

I think the only reason to do both steps is to apply the update ASAP. If you are ok waiting, then only flash the new system.img. That's definitely what I always do. I don't mind waiting. I have Google Play Services notifications hidden now anyway, so those update notifications don't show up and bug me.
Thanks for the walk through though, @bitpushr, I'm sure many can make use of it.

Honestly, you shouldn't edit those files as that can be dangerous, and disabling the filesystem check can be dangerous, and it probably won't work because then the zip would fail signing verification.
If you followed all of the instructions in OP and still get error 7, try, on top of erasing and flashing the stock system.img, also extract and erase then flash boot.img and recovery.img. You will get error 7 if your recovery and kernel (boot.img) aren't stock.

Honor 8 FRD-L04 B385 update?

Top right download full update it'll download once you hit that and remove the proxy but it won't get authorized when you go to install it.
Well the good news I see out of this even if we cannot install is that the update is finally coming after 2 months of the other versions enjoying it for that long. Hopefully it fixes the battery drain.

Likely you'd push both update.zip and the region specific zip to where the stock recovery is expecting, then from a powered-off state use the key combinations to force-udpate. I'm unsure why there are 3 zips this time though since B360 was only 2 zips, I haven't had time yet to look at the contents.

Just tried that too, boot, recovery, and system will flash but vendor fails. When I load to the system it still shows B360 but certain parts of the OS don't work -- can't access Developer Options, for example. It seems as if this package just doesn't work right.
Update: If anybody else wants to attempt it, remove all PIN/password protection first. I had to factory reset.

Of note is that the 72309 firmware (B360) zips can be flashed from TWRP with no issue. This zip however fails to install.
Things I tried which failed:
Unpacking UPDATE.APP and force-updating from /external_sd/dload/ folder
Flashing extracted images from bootloader*
Modifying updater-script and flashing in TWRP (mountencrypt was throwing an error, others too)
Updating updater-script and update-binary and flashing in TWRP (same errors)
Flashing images from bootloader, boot and system worked but vendor failed, but the device did boot. It didn't, however, show the new software version -- but that may be because the software version is read from the vendor partition which wouldn't flash. In any event, flashing this way the device was unstable. I couldn't set a screen PIN and Developer Options would crash the Settings menu when I attempted to access it.
Someone more skilled than me would need to extract the contents of all 3 zips and make one TWRP-flashable zip.

And your absolut sure these 5 rom files are OK and not broken? You download the correct device versions?

You can flash twrp with twrp itself(install - > image) or with fastboot like the first time.

And your absolut sure these 5 rom files are OK and not broken? You download the correct device versions?
Which roms you have(file names)?
What twrp version(link /file name)?
You can flash twrp with twrp itself(install - > image) or with fastboot like the first time.

I am currently back to stock rom thanks to Heeth21.
I will try to flash now from the beginning.
Thank you for your help

Official site does not have fastboot ROM, those zips are meant to be flashed via stock recovery.

Is there a technical reason why you can rollback to the last month's ROM from the Asus website with the stock recovery? Has the filesystem changed or something?

-- Flash stock recovery
-- Put downloaded zip file into external SD
-- Boot into stock recovery
-- Apply update from external storage and locate file
-- done

I tried to install the laat Oreo ROM from the Asus website using stock recovery but it failed with a message something like, you can't flash an older version than the one installed.

Dear simply visit any Asus service center they will downgrade it to Oreo, I visited today, and one interesting thing is they don't have any stable update for now . Soon a newer fota update will release.

First flash twrp then wipe everything except sd card and then flash stock recovery and try again
I posted here about the issues I had. I know that at first the problem is the old firmware can't be installed over newer firmware, when I fix that problem the zip package is no longer signed correctly.
Please could you explain why the method you suggest will work.
Yes it's work i done with 2 max pro m2

In case of system update failure the zip file you are trying to flash will be corrupted. (Happened with me many times as i renamed the oreo stock rom to above the build number of the pie update so my phone would treat the downloaded oreo rom to be new .but during the system update after reaching aroung 25 % it displayed an error and the next thing i remember is the zip file getting corrupted) so always keep a backup!
On 25th of april new pie update was released which fixed screen blinking issue.

Thanks. But where's the guide or howto, that the title says ?
I flashed your patched boot image, but no Magisk is detected in either stable or canary Magisk Manager. There might be an issue.
EDIT: Confirmed that the issue is on your end. Patched the image myself and flashed it, with Magisk being detected by Magisk Manager.

This boot image works.

Download the full OTA zip, keep it in internal storage outside any folders.
Go to System -> System Updates
Click the gear icon, select local upgrade
Then, select the downloaded Full OTA zip.
Install and reboot.
Done.

If you updated to the Indian/Global 11.0.1.2 before doing this, you only have 2 options:
1. Wait for the next OOS update, but when the Indian/Global update comes, don't update.
Instead, wait for the full update zip of the EU to be available, and then follow the steps in the previous comment.
2. Unlock bootloader, flash the full OTA zip of any variant via fastboot, and relock the bootloader.

Your file did not work for me but i modified the stock file from the first post myself and that worked. i guess there is something coded into the file by magisk that is depended on the phone.

I'm on Kb2005 and I'm only able to get an incremental update. Can I pull the bin file from that update
Was there an OTA specific to models outside of the U.S.? I see at least two variations are already getting an update but nothing is available yet for my US (KB2005) variant I got today.

I have KB2005 as well. No updates for me. I tried to just boot the images posted in the other thread with no luck.

Unless OnePlus is very different from the other major manufactures, you definitely do not want to use a patched boot image from a different model variation of software/firmware. At best it will cause major issues.. At worst, it will brick it.
If Oneplus is different, I would love some feedback on why and what they do from other users.

Correctish, you don't want to flash it. You can just boot the image. If successful it'll just boot the phone. If unsuccessful it will hang and you can just force reboot. No damage can because because it's not writing the boot image to the phones storage. Kinda like booting from a flash drive. The code is
Code:
fastboot boot /path/boot.img
If you boot a patched boot image you will have access to a rooted phone until you reboot. I.E. just enough time to flash magisk on the installed boot image.
Hope that makes sense.

I am familiar with how it works but with brands like HTC and Samsung, if we use a boot.img from a different variation, it will not work or even brick it. Thanks for the heads up! It sounds like there is more room for error for testing with OnePlus and modifying the system.
Can someone please provide a link to the Magisk Manager that 's working with this bootimage?
Edit: Found it, got root but it doesn't pass SafetyNet...

Which one was it? My Magisk is not working either. I assumed it was because the kb2005 was only an incremental update. I have the canary version from github. Is there another for oneplus?

Yeah, same one. And it worked on the incremental Ota for kb2005?
Do you mind posting the patched boot.img?
Thank you!

Don't know for KB2005, mine is KB2003.
I used stock boot.img from OP and patched it myself, all already patched files didn't work.
