Agree.

Are you rooted/BL unlocked?

If so I guess upgrade can't be either flashed nor OTAed...

We'll have to wait for someone to get the full rom.

Just downloaded. It is a flashable zip-file. Looks weird for an official system update, where you should change your recovery from stock to something else to be able to flash official update.

Maybe it is flashable from stock recovery....

Anyone tried it?

Temporarily replaced twrp by entering flashmode and installing stock recovery from a stock rom using fastboot flash recovery recovery.img... thats the only method i know but you need a computer for that...

to boot into stock recovery just click on top right of the system updater (three dots) and choose Recovery Mode. Phone will boot into stock recovery then

Let's cut this crap, because I've tried all the ways to install this flashable zip (TWRP, stock 2.3.044 ST recovery, the MIUI V8 TWRP chinese recovery too) with two words, YES we need official QFIL version (which will also be able to flash on your existing unlocked bootloader(and rooted) devices, I'm in that situation with current 2.3.044 ST, once you flash through QFIL, after that just reflash the TWRP because it is wiped out from the original Stock Recovery) or somebody from XDA to change the update script to be supported through TWRP ... or even, if some kind of Nougat small ZIP file is needed for basis before flashing like, before you flash a small basis ZIP file before installing the actual CM14.1 or CM13 or else ... You got my point ...

P.S. Also, why my phone in the morning proposed me the same update by its System Update app and I've even downloaded it, but the only problem which I didn't realized sooner was that before downloading it I should re-flash the stock 2.3.044 ST recovery before downloading and rebooting into in my case TWRP ...
