Verizon user myself. The easiest way to update and keep all your current data is to

1. Download the entire update

2. Unzip it

3. Edit the flash all file and delete '-w" click save

4. Run flash all and let it do it's thing. It might take upwards of 5 minutes or so.

5. BAM you will be booted up into the newest update with your current data.

6. Turn phone off and boot into bootloader. (Hold volume down+power)

7. Download TWRP and SuperSU (https://plus.google.com/+Chainfire/posts/CBL8pnKtA8F) (http://xdaforums.com/pixel-xl/development/twrp-alpha1-pixel-devices-t3500312)

7. Make sure to put the TWRP and SuperSU zip onto your phone before fastbooting into TWRP.

8. fastboot boot /path/to/TWRP.img (the TWRP file you just downloaded)

9. You will now be in TWRP. Click install and navigate to that TWRP.img file you put onto your phone and click it.

10. After that is done click the back button to the TWRP home screen click reboot then recovery.

11. Flash SuperSU zip once done reboot phone. Your phone should reboot a couple times before it actually boots up.

12. Profit. ?

Someone really needs to make a Verizon Update Guide. ?
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] bobbarker2:
Also a Verizon user and bought through them, though strangely when I received the phone it was build V and not X, the VZW variant.

Anyhow, I simply applied the official OTA available on Google's website in TWRP. I had to reflash TWRP and SuperSU but that was a simple task since I was already booted in TWRP.

Don't know if people on X can do the same but I'm guessing yes.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] wx9kvh:
Thank you so much for the info, going to try this right now. And I totally agree with the Verizon update guide! I will report back with my results.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Cbass15:
Please do! I will be more than willing to help a fellow brother in need. ?

Is this for the O or the Q update?

---------- Post added at 08:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:31 PM ----------

When downloading both O & Q i get a folder with the following in it :

META-INF(FOLDER)

care_map(Text Document)

payload.bin(Bin File)

payload_properties(Text Document)

Am i missing something here?
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Cbass15:
Where did you download it from?
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] wx9kvh:
https://developers.google.com/android/ota
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Cbass15:
Download either O or Q from here.

https://developers.google.com/android/images

This will download the entire update.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] wx9kvh:
This is downloading O. Wonder why i couldn't find this link. Thanks. As far as SuperSU, am i to be using SR5?
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Cbass15:
I downloaded SR4 I heard SR5 had issues.

Same goes for TWRP, I recommend downloading alpha 2 and holding off on RC1
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] wx9kvh:
Image is done downloading. If i opt to not mess with TWRP, can i still root the device using the boot-to-root file? Id much rather wait for a more stable version of TWRP before i jump into that pool. Also, i have elemental kernerl, will this cause me issues?
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Cbass15:
I'd imagine the boot to root would still work if you followed the method over there in the Superuser thread.

And no as this method will replace the kernel with the stock one. You will have to reflash elemental after. ?
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] wx9kvh:
Okay, I removed the -w from the flash all file. About to apply update.

Having issues with this, stuck in boot loop to recovery with 'no command'.

Followed instructions in first post (except for TWRP/root part) and am using latest Android SDK tools.

Will have to try this with a wipe I guess.

Edit: Thought I would try one more time, but using the commands from flash-all.bat (except for removing -w from the final update command, to preserve user data) and it seems to have worked. :good:

Edit 2: Booted TWRP img, flashed TWRP zip, installed SuperSU. All good to go. :good:
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Atemi1337:
I had a similiar issue. I had to run all of the commands again, to get it to boot again. Can you say terrifying 25 mins?

[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] cam30era:
I had the same thing happen on my Linux box. So I just ran the last command (with -w removed) from terminal. Worked fine. "fastboot update image-marlin-nmf26o.zip"
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] JimSmith94:
Did you unzip twice? First unzip xxx-factory-xxx.zip, and then inside the subdirectory it creates, unzip image-xxx.zip.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] muzzy996:
My initial assumption was that when the command "fastboot update image-marlin-nmf26o.zip" is issued in the flash-all.sh script then everything is pulled from that zip file, not from a previously uncompressed folder. I've tried uncompressing the files into a subfolder named image-marlin-nmf26o with no luck.

I've also tried initiating the fastboot update image-marlin-nmf26o.zip command manually (rather than using the flash-all.sh script) with the same failure result.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] cam30era:
Try to fastboot flash just the boot image to slot_a and slot_b first, before running the flash-all. It sounds like that has helped some other users.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] ridobe:
Let me take a stab at it. I notice that you are in platform tools. This means that you tried to recreate the zip file environment there. Try this. After downloading the zip file, uncompress once. Enter that folder and open a command prompt. Edit the .sh file to remove the -w. Then run the command ./flash-all.sh.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] cam30era:
[MENTION=3609292]muzzy996[/MENTION],

Good point. If you would modify your path environment variables you could run ADB and fastboot from any folder, though. Avoids these kind of issues.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] JimSmith94:
No other sub folder. Everything should be unzipped into the same directory.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] muzzy996:
Thanks guys, it's definitely a messed up setup for ADB and Fastboot. I installed ADB and Fastboot clean in a Windows 10 virtual machine in Parallels 12 and it worked fine. I'm now on 7.1.1, rooted with boot-to-root.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] jrat69:
Verizon Pixel 128 Unlocked. Took the update. Can't install root for some reason. I installed TWRP RC1, adb sideload supersu it showed it was running, rebooted no root. I copied supersu.zip to sd storage rebooted to bootloader recovery and installed zip rebooted, still no root. What do I have to do to get root to take. In TWRP I browse through all the folders and there is both a root folder and a SU folder both appear to be empty.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] ridobe:
Version of supersu?
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] jrat69:
V2.78 SR4 Release superSU.zip
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] ridobe:
That's old. There is a new stable 2.79. Additionally, 2.79sr1 is updated specifically with tbe pixel in mind. If you flash the sr1 version in twrp it will work. If you use the stable, you will have to go into the twrp file explorer and delete the fstab in the root directory, then flash.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] jrat69:
Thanks, Do I need to reflash TWRP, or just the 2.79sr1? I'm at work, so I'm trying to get it figured out before I get home tonight.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] yearn2burn:
What is the point of flashing system_other.img into the second slot rather than just system.img? The second slot doesn't boot when I do that until I flash system.img there instead. Also noted what had been noted before that if you start on b slot, you can't just flashboot flash system sytem.img. You must specify system_a sytem.img or it will flash to the active slot. Suggest updating the OP to at least that issue.

[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] smokeydriver:
So maybe I'm being ridiculous but...I'm on Verizon and have NDE63X (unlocked and rooted), but my phone tells me there is an update available and it won't install. Is there a 7.1.1 for Verizon because the way I'm reading it, the highest factory image is what I have. But then why does my phone say there's an update?
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] TonikJDK:
You are on November. So yes, you are two versions behind. It won't update because you are rooted. You need to sideload or flash the factory images without flashing data. Lots of guides and threads here on how to do that.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Mr. Steve:
Apologizes if this has already been answered somewhere else, but I couldn't find any information on this. What happens on the Pixel if you run one of the older fastboot commands that doesn't specifically target a certain slot? Instead of running "fastboot flash boot_a boot.img" or "fastboot flash boot_b boot.img", you run "fastboot flash boot boot.img". Does the image in question get flashed to both slots, only one slot (if so, which), or does nothing happen?
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Golf c:
It gets automatically flashed to the active slot. It will tell you which slot its flashing too.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] smokeydriver:
I'm familiar with sideloading and all, but how do I know which 7.1.1 works for Verizon- or do I just take the most up to date one that doesn't say 'Europe'? Thanks!
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] TonikJDK:
Only two versions, Europe and everything else. So yes, the non Europe version. I expect the two will merge back together at some time.

[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] JenItols:
I know iovyroot for the Z5C allowed this backup but with the recent COW (Copy on Write CVE-2016-5195) vulnerability has anyone been able to develop a way to backup/restore TA partition?

Question: Has anyone developed a tool to backup and restore TA partition for the X Compact yet?

Answer: Yes, by rayman. This method requires firmware 34.1.A.1.198.

http://xdaforums.com/crossdevice-dev/sony/universal-dirtycow-based-ta-backup-t3514236

*Edit: Figured I would update this post since a TA backup was found.
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] 2me3:
If I understand correctly the only way to backup TA on the z5 is to downgrade to lollipop first. As the XC shipped with 6.0 and there is no way to downgrade and get full root access without unlocking the bootloader, without full root no way to access the TA partition. I don't believe any sony device shipped with marshmallow can be rooted without destroying the TA partition at this time.

The dirty cow exploit is basically a proof of concept at this point, you can get a root shell but thats about it. Hopefully someone will soon find a way to use it to get full root access.
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] JenItols:
Yes people were capable of backing up TA because of a root exploit on the Z5C lollipop rom. I'm not entirely convinced we need full root with permissive sepolicy.

Could any dev's tell me if a recompile of the toolkit binary with root user hardcoded (setresuid, setresgid) could allow the use of the dd command for TA backup or would there still be SELinux issues with the recompiled toolkit binary?

Guys I am sure some of you have come up with this program already but I thought posting a link to it since its free and works great with the Kaiser when you want to switch/open/close applications without pulling out the stylus.

Task Switcher application from Dotfred

Link (FIXED)

I configured it to open with the PTT button and then use the wheel to move/select between the options (Active,close,close all)

Hope you find it usefull.

unksr00t
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] gthing:
Thanks - I haven't seen this before.

Your link is dead - looks right but goes to the wrong place. I got it with a copy/paste though.

I installed it and it gave the "this program may not display properly because it was designed for an older version of windows" thing. I downloaded the WM6 version and am running it on WM6.

The program did not appear in my Applications. It was not available to be assigned to a button either.

It was sitting there in the Program Files directory though, and I could run it from there.

Looks pretty good. I like the controls and everything - but its a bit disappointing that it doesn't pull the correct icon for every program and you have to do it manually. I don't see myself doing that - so if I'm going to use it I would use it with the default icons.

I think I like it and would probably use it if I can get it to assign to a button.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] unksr00t:
To be honest its only when its assigned to a button that you will see the benefits specially if its the PTT which is next to the wheel.

Funny you say that. I tried checking my buttons settings and now it doesnt show up on the list of applications however its still assigned to the PTT button so I dont want to mess with it lol in case I screw it up..

Have you tried re-installing it?

I agree with the Icons being a pain although we tend to use the same applications very often so it might not be too much of a hassle.

UPDATE

Its back on the list of my applications available. I have assigned it to button 6 PTT
