October 2018 Update

I'm still waiting for mine. I got mine from Google and I'm on Verizon. I need this update so I can charge my phone in my car.

Only thing I can think of is I'm on the beta program. I've had issues getting updates before on the beta program.

What is the advantage of staying on beta, when official is available?

What will the October update do for car charging?

Since the last update fast charging on a non pd charger doesn't work. It says charging but the battery goes down.

I opted out of the beta program and now it's downloading the update. 😊

I just opted out of the beta program and mine is downloading as we speak also...very strange! Never had an issue before the October updated!!
 
question... I never "officially" opted out of the beta program. I automatically recieved the public release of Android P. I have not received the last update (on Verizon)... if I opt out of the beta program, will it wipe my phone?
I assumed that once I received the official release, it would remove me from from the beta program (apparently not).
Also noticed my build numbers start with
PPR not PPP (which is beta tester number)
Assume PPR stands for public release?

No opting out of the beta won't wipe your phone. You should get the OTA within minutes of opting out manually (thats what happened to me).
 
No update here yet. I've never waited this long I've always had the security updates by the latest the 5th of each month so not sure what's going on, I'm in the Boston area on Sprint, (edit) I was still opted-in on the beta site had no idea I just opted out and got the update right afterwards

So, I also had the same issue as to why I didn't receive the Oct update sooner. I was still opted in for the Android p beta. Once I opted out, the update came through. I'm sad to report the phone is definitely sluggish. The battery also seems worse.

Glad you got it! Weird how you had to opt out first, though!

This is why I started side loading a couple months ago.
 
ok, me too. had to opt out from beta program to get the update , and it was immediate after I did this .
 
Same here opt out and the update started downloading....oh the irony..opt in for early updates and then opt out for on time or in this case a very late Oct 5th update.
 
Should the beta include updates or was it just an early, trial version of Pie
The Beta program does not get monthly Security updates; it just has a few scheduled releases. And yes, it (the latest one) was an early release of Pie.
