Verizon Pixel Oreo update.

[alarsen77]

So I have a Pixel XL on Verizon and purchased from Verizon. I haven't gotten the Oreo update yet and wasn't expecting to. But I figured I would start the thread to keep track of anyone with a Verizon store purchased Pixel to keep updated as to when they receive the Oreo update on their phone. I am curious to see if this update keeps up with the Google store pixels or if Verizon finds a way to slow it down as they do with many other updates for other manufacturers.

This phone is 10 months old and has gotten updates at the exact same pace the entire time on Verizon's network. Fwiw, I'm using a Google store pixel on vzw and have gotten the update

I am using a Google Store Pixel XL on Verizon but have not gotten the update.

I have a Verizon purchased XL and have not received the update. I commend Verizon on giving us the security updates the same as everyone else each month. I hope I'm wrong, but I can't see Verizon giving a Verizon purchased device a full OS update without tinkering with it first.

nothing yet Verizon pixel.

Nothing here yet either. Verizon

From my understanding, only beta participants were getting an upgrade

That is correct! Everyone else will be sometime between today and the end of the year.

We're you still stock?

 

[blackhemi4x4]

Yes. I unenrolled from beta about 2 weeks ago. I hit the check for updates about a bajillion times.

Is this the official build?

I think it's great they got us the security updates quickly as well. Hopefully Google supplied Verizon with a version in advance so they could prepare and be ready just like the security updates.

Same as on mine

Hmm I wonder if it is because you were on the beta that you got it so quickly?

I just enrolled my wife's pixel, she got the same version I got. Unlike beta builds, both don't give the beta boot disclosure.

Well maybe we will all be getting it over the next couple of days.

Sometimes it isn't even tinkering, but simply to check stability on the network before releasing it. Verizon doesn't like the way apple does it, every time apple messes up an update the carriers get angry customers. Although most phones they do need to install their latest bloat.

Verizon pixel xl. Unenrolled a month ago. Just got Oreo. Stock

 

[ainfinity]

Went the beta route Verizon Pixel XL , signed up and Oreo was waiting to install... done!

 

[GTvert90]

So if you go the beta route do you have to opt out? Or will you get Android P beta's when that time comes? If you opt out after the official build does it wipe your phone like if you opt out of a Developer Preview?
