New 6P owner but not getting updates

[anon(24178)]

Did the February sideload and March downloaded immediately after the feb update installed. So I'm good to go from here out.

Make sure you set the usb options in the notifications drop-down menu. It defaults to charging only. Change it to Transfer photos. Also, you may need to disconnect and reconnect the phone.

I'm tossing my hat in and subscribing in case there is a solution that doesn't involve wiping the device.

Ironically, I just switched from a BlackBerry Z30 yesterday with the primary goal of receiving updates directly without going through Verizon.

The adb option doesn't wipe the device--that's why I did it that way instead of using the factory image.

Exactly. The only additional steps are enabling developer mode on the phone and installing the tools on your PC or Mac. I didn't have to wipe my phone to do it. You're not flashing the stock image, rather sideloading the over-the-air update.

Got both the February and March updates OTA early this morning.

Dittos.

Even found the setting to "allow rotation" on the home screen at the bottom of the settings.
