Trying to sideload an OTA for my 6P and getting an error

[mikefour77]

Hello all -

So I am trying to update my 6P to the most recent version of OREO and got everything connected via ADB, however, when I enter the following command:

adb sideload angler-ota-opr6.170623.019-d7784575.zip

I get the following error:

no such file or directory

Some additional information - I placed the OTA file in the same folder as the ADB program, I use a 6P that is currently in the beta program running the last beta version and am on the FI network.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

I usually rename the .zip files to something like ota.zip because that's easier to type without making a mistake somewhere. Also make sure that you're running the command from the same location as the ADB install. i.e. if ADB is installed at C:\adb you need to start a cmd window from c:\adb, not c:\users\<username> which you can do by holding Shift, then right-click in a blank space and select "New command prompt from here"

See if that helps at all. Apologies if you already knew the process.

Just want to be sure - at the time you enter this command on your PC, your phone is in the Recovery menu and you selected the option to load a file using ADB?

Edit: third option down "Apply update from ADB"
