Pixel 4XL - Stock, not rooted: device corrupted - Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers

Hello all, I have a stock Pixel 4 XL which has never been rooted. I did not even enable bootloader unlocking (which clearly I should've done).
Anyway, my phone a few days ago was installing a system update overnight and when I woke up it was on the black screen saying "Your device is corrupted and cannot be trusted".
I have tried to install factory images and OTA updates but because my device is locked, nothing is working.
I have also tried the Android Flash Tool and Pixel Recovery Tool but again, device is locked so nothing will flash.
Any ideas on how to fix this? Is it even possible?
PS: Funny how they don't want you to unlock the bootloader cause of safety reasons but if I had unlocked it, I could've easily fixed this phone already. Seems to do more harm than good.

You can try sideloading the full OTA image. Unlocked bootloader isn't required.

So download the OTA and do fastboot flash OTA OTAfilename?

No, you use adb to sideload it. Get the OTA image you want from here.
Then follow the directions in this tutorial.

Are you sure you are sideloading the OTA image and not the factory image?

I downloaded this full OTA image.
13.0.0 (TP1A.220905.004, Sep 2022) for coral.
EDIT: I tired the build before this one (from Aug) and it got farther along than the Sep one but eventually failed because: recovery: update package is older than the current build.

Okay so for some reason the link directly from Google didn't work but the link from here did work!!
So I want to thank you Lughnasadh!
If anyone else comes across this issue, try the link from this website:

Google has officially kicked off the Android 13 QPR3's stable version rollout. You can download the release right now and give it a try!
www.xda-developers.com
Not sure why, but this version was 1.8gbs and worked,
the official one from Google was 2.2gbs and didn't work.

Android System Update *root* 24.6 MB........

I was hoping someone could help me out with this......
I've been getting this irritating "Android System Update" (screenshot attached) week after week.
I'm rooted (unlocked bootloader), running stock 5.1.1
This update keeps showing up and when I go to install it, the phone reboots, then it goes it TWRP. I'm assuming this hasn't installed correctly because it keeps coming back.
Does anyone know how to get rid of this or install it correctly. It's becoming quite annoying when it pops up time after time.
Thank you-
Install the update manually or block OTAs.

You can't take OTA if you are rooted.

So I just need to find the security patch and manually install it?
Now where to find it, LOL
I'd start by reading the stickies at the top of the thread list... Good readng.
this update would probably be LMY48I, for the stagefright patch.
what is your current build number?

The link you posted is for Galaxy Nexus (not N6). It is the same page, but a different location. You need https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images#shamu
@IINexusII is likely correct that the update you received is LMY48I. So you should be able to flash that

Thank you all very much for your help.
I'll try to patch one of these updates this weekend when I have some time off.
I'm the gatekeeper for all that is Android OS in my family. Myself, my Mom and now my Dad all have Nexus 6' and I've rooted us all. So I install it on my phone first and then the same with theirs.
I was so happy I found a fix for the MLB At Bat app and their stupid blackout rules.
This is just great, been having the same issue and versions
This covered everything I had at the moment!
I applied the update tonight, sick of those damn OTA prompts.
This is where I got mine from, but still not sure if I chose the right one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6/development/fxz-nexus-6-recovery-flashable-fastboot-t3066052
Installed the download from:
LVY48F (5.1.1 Project Fi bugfix update 20150910)
It says Project Fi only, but I have no idea what that is. I didn't see an option for LVY48I, so I went with LVY48F.
Did I do this right?
Want to make sure I didn't screw up my phone.
I tried installing the OEM ROM from here, but it failed while trying to flash it via TWRP recovery:
https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images#shamu
"5.1.1 (LMY48I)"
Anyone?

[Q] ota update always failing

i had twrp but i wanted ota updates now and i flashed stock recovery and locked the bootloader but after i update from ota i always end up getting installation failed why is that? i didnt root

You really dont need to re-lock bootloader. You could have just downloaded and flashed through twrp and then flash supersu. But i am not sure why it is failing on your end.
Same thing here, always installation failed
Try a different type c cable.. Apparently, I was having this issue
Op3t original cable : Android auto and adb side load works perfectly on my op3
But when used on op3t, android auto cannot detect and side load of ota fails.
Used the original cable from Google Nexus 6p, Android auto works perfectly but I didn't try side load adb because I already flash via TWRP instead.
Try changing cables
Found a FIX!

I too had the same problem. Can you explain me how to get that?
sure @kabeeradam so what you need to do or atleast what worked for me was go all stock recovery and rom and had bootloader locked too.
flash the beta rom from oneplus through sideload then flash the stable rom from oneplus then do the normal ota update and it should work. lmk for any other info also sorry if it looks like a mess this is my first time explaining these types of things. hope it helps

[SOLVED] Pie october update failed

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.

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 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.

Please help, need boot.img with Android 10

I have tried multiple times to install TWRP and every time it seems to get overwritten by stock recovery. I've tried everything I can find online. After successfully flashing recovery.img and sending command "fastboot reboot recovery" or command "fastboot reboot 'recovery.img'" it flashes orange for a fraction of a second then vibrates a second time and shows boot logo screen with orange state warning, then either boots to stock recovery, or it boots to the home screen. One person said he was running into the same issue as I was and was only successful by deleting all the partitions on the device and reflashing it. He doesn't remember the steps he used and I would like to avoid even trying to do that anyway.
My only goal is to obtain root on my device, even if I'm using AOSP, as long as it's AOSP Android 10 v222, however I'm having issues trying to build a version of AOSP for this device without being able to find the binaries for it.
With all that being said, my question is if anyone who has the Blu Bold N1 running with the Android 10 update and working TWRP installed could please dump the rom and send it to me or upload it for me somewhere. There is no way I can dump the rom of my own device because I cannot get TWRP to successfully boot, and Blu does not host the Android 10 iso for this phone anywhere.
Alternatively, if someone could find the binaries for this device or knows how to find them, I could successfully build my image of AOSP and obtain root that way. I would rather be on the stock android that comes with the phone, but if I can't root it then I don't care to move to something else.
On an unrelated note, this is the first time I've ever posted on this forum and I apologize if anything I'm asking for or saying goes against the guidelines.

I can't seem to get TWRP on it at all, with the boot img or the rom would it not work with magisk?
The 3 files attached are:
boot.bin: The contents of the original 'boot' partition.
boot-stripped.bin: Patched with an empty vbmeta image, to allow custom ROM flashing and the like. Generated by:
Code:
cp boot.bin boot-stripped.bin
avbtool erase_footer --image boot-stripped.bin
avbtool append_vbmeta_image --image boot-stripped.bin --partition-size 33554432 --vbmeta_image /path/to/google-empty-vbmeta.img
boot-magisk.img: Pre-patched with Magisk 23 Canary (23016).
These are all from the November 2021 security patch of A10 on the Bold N1.
Also: you can extract everything off of the live device with https://github.com/bkerler/mtkclient:
Code:
python ./mtk rl <path to backup>
will give you a dump of all of the partitions on the device. (Since 'userdata' is encrypted and the last one, when it gets there, just hit ctrl-C when it gets there and you'll have everything out of the backup.)

Question OTA Update Fails With "Installation Problem"

NE2215, Rooted running .c22.
I have followed all the rules, unrooting with Magisk restoring images, then either using the system updater to download the OTA, or the local update apk to install an OTA. In every instance, whether it is c26 or c30, it fails with the unhelpful message "Installation Problem"
I suspect that this was caused by my having at one point installed the unofficial TWRP recovery, which I later uninstalled and replaced with the stock recovery. I had thought returning to the stock recovery would solve the problem, but it continues to exist.
Can someone suggest the steps I should take to get the phone to take the update? This was not a problem when OnePlus was providing full installs, but I'm having no luck at all with the recent updates.
Many thanks for your help.
Maybe Oxygen Updater has full download link?

I would try to flash stock boot.img without any root etc., reflash stock recovery if possible and then download FULL ota link using oxygen updater and then via localupdate.apk try to install it.
Also you can try to use this software:
OPPO System Upgrade Tool | OPPO Global
Only 5 steps to upgrade to new system. Always optimize your OPPO device when there's the latest software update available to enhance the system stability.
www.oppo.com
It should be possible to upgrade your OP10P with it even with OxygenOS without issues.
Hopefully some of those will help you to upgrade.

Many thanks, will give both suggestions a shot. But isn't the OTA update by definition only a partial update? My problem really arose when OnePlus stopped releasing full updates. Or am I confusing something?

Not necessarily. It can be partial and full, too.
Full updates are released in case of any issues, also rooted devices need full update files.
Give it a shot and hopefully you will be successful.

When I unroot (restoring images) and then try to boot the stock boot image, (just to check before actually flashing it,) it goes into Crashdump mode. Any ideas how to fix? (Since I just booted rather than flashed, I'm out of Crashdump mode but back to square one.)

You can try complete uninstall of the magisk by clicking on that button in the app, but better have a backup of your data if anything goes wrong.
Or you can just download the full Ota zip using oxygen updater and use that local update apk if it goes through. Also use that local update apk for android 13 as there is for A12 and for A13. It might solve the issue too.
Did you flash stock recovery to both slots the last time?

yes. you flashed the slot you were on and was able to update since you have the stock images, but now you're on the other slot that probably still has twrp.

Okay, I flashed stock recovery to both slots, but still update fails. The system says that I am running c.22, and tries to update me to c.30. On the other hand, the Oxygen Updater says "You need to install c22 first, and then update to subsequent updates via incremental." It then proceeds to download c.22. (I should note that at one time c.26 was installed; Not sure how we dropped back to c.22.)
Regardless, the update fails, even using the local update for Android 13.
Any ideas? I don't like the idea of being stuck forever on c.22.

idk. safest way is probably change regions or wait for a full rom. I have c.30 ota download links in my update post, but idk if you want to chance it.
