It is what it is.
You are on the stable channel and the Android 14 update you got is probably a security update.
I suggest in future that if you are thar unsure of, and dont fully understand the implications and evolment of signing up for beta product to Avoid doing so.
Alpha and Beta are exactly that. Previews, unfinished products. There may or may not be major bugs. Either way you will need to be prepared to potentially need to wipe your device or do constant maintenance and know how to do it. It's all part of the game.
Actually, I did not really want to partake of beta testing.
As I have explained before, I was in Greece and was offered the Android 14 regular update. Rather then download it while over there and also take a risk of something going wrong leaving me phone-less, I refused the upgrade. I figured I would get when I returned home under less exotic circumstances. Well, upon returning home, the upgrade was never offered. No amount of checking offered it. I contacted Google about it. They said to keep checking but there was nothing they could do to get it to me - other than wiping the device and checking after that. A few more weeks and still no upgrade and now two months behind in security updates. I did some web inquiries. Two suggested going the beta route to get an update. Hence entry into Beta.
Yes, I've been a beta tester in a few former lives and I know what they entail. I was told I could opt out painlessly eventually. Well, I'm still waiting for eventually.
The first screenshot in this thread suggested I could opt out and NOT wipe. The most recent one suggests otherwise. I'm just trying to sort out what's what.
