This is the best way of doing the updates, here is my experience. Bought my N7+ TA-1055 android one carrier: vodacom-za Beginning August it updated on first boot shap so I have no idea what it had on but it updated to the may update. I thought why am I in may when we already in august and check for updates it says I'm up-to date even though the security patch shows !!!! I'm out dated. I come to this page and see no mention for my device for firmware so I thought I can't get the updates yet, come back a few times and see another thread mentioning they got august update on the 1055 so I came back here and saw the firmware is for people that want to unlock bootloaders or something like that. I download all the ota's and do the step adb detects the device and I also installed nokia drivers and legacy all those things.

Do the reboot to recovery and get no command just that nothing else read up online you have to click power + vol up like 5 times not in guide though didn't see it there.

Shap update over adb do the sideload check device shows ? sideload so i just go with it 100% finish the first update reboot device

shows device is completing update and vola we on june now check updates I'll be damned it's doing july now so I think maybe it'll be quicker or easier, it took like 30 min to complete if not more so I reboot and same thing next update starts I decide just to do it over adb, best thing you could do took like 3 min per update. Highly recommend adb OTA updates forevery one. [MENTION=5618262]edwaine[/MENTION] thanks and maybe add that power + vol up to your guide since I had to go look it up. Sorry in advance if I missed it as well as the legacy driver part you metnion it but it isn't clear also looked up somewhere else.

Whenever I try to sideload the OTA zip file, it always gives me error. I have made sure ADB is set up properly. Even when I perform adb devices or adb reboot recovery, it always works. But when it comes to sideloading, it always ends up with the error as screenshot. Does anyone know what to do? I did a factory reset. Bootloader is locked, USB debugging is turned on. Zip file is placed in the ADB folder.
[Nokia 7 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] abd96iq:
You are a really great man thanks for your time . I wonder if i can pm you about unlocking the bootloader and installing magisk
[Nokia 7 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] Gravemind2015:
It will fail, because now boot and probably /system are modified. Both OTA and sideload will fail if the existing installation either has twrp or root.

To solve this, you'll need to download the july rollback (Rollback WW 2.22A SP02 Android 8.1 July 2018) firmware from here.

You can sideload it as it doesn't check for any modifications and just replaces the existing one.

Note: you may need to do this twice (with a reboot in-between) if in phone>settings>about phone still shows August patch. This indicates that the "other" slot was updated, not the one being used. I encountered it once.

Once it shows July security patch, you can go ahead and either OTA or sideload newer updates. If sideloading, then you'll have to flash them in order, like August>September and so on. After updating, you can re-root.

You should be able to do this without any wipe as July Rollback sideload doesn't wipe data by default, neither do the incremental OTAs.
[Nokia 7 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] Saswata Chakraborty:
Thank you buddy for taking your time to read my question and help me. Just to let you know that I uninstalled Magisk from Magisk manager. It downloaded the uninstaller zip file and flashed automatically and uninstalled Magisk and rebooted my device automatically. Then I tried updating. When it didn't work, I did a factory reset and tried. It still didn't work. I tried booting into stock boot image and it still didn't pass the update. Finally I tried sideloading and you have already read what happened. Now coming to your resolution, I tried sideloading April OTA which was 500mb something. But I got timestamp error and it said I can't downgrade. I am afraid the same thing will happen if I try sideloading July update. It may again tell me downgrading is not possible for timestamp issue. I really don't know what to do? I am already quite unhappy with this device. I never faced this type of issue with Mi A1. I always used to get OTA as soon as I used to uninstall Magisk. But now I am stuck.
[Nokia 7 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] Gravemind2015:
The timestamp error is due to the package being too old. Downloading a fresh copy of july should work. In fact, I had to do a clean install, so I downgraded from august to July and back to august. The Rollback zip was downloaded at least a week before, but worked well.

So I'd recommend you download july rollback, it shouldn't produce any timestamp error, as it's designed to downgrade from p beta to oreo.

[Nokia 7 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] Saswata Chakraborty:
Should I download the July zip from OTA section or from Firmware section? And one more thing. As soon as I type adb reboot recovery, it goes to recovery, but on cmd, I see

Stopping adbd...

E: Failed to open driver control: no such file or directory

E: Failed to open driver control: no such file or directory

(See the previous screenshot)

Do you know why??
[Nokia 7 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] edwaine:
Enable first USB Debugging in developer settings
[Nokia 7 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] Saswata Chakraborty:
It

Platform tools downloaded, extracted and kept on the desktop. USB debugging is already enabled. Like I said, all adb commands are working. Only when I type adb reboot bootloader, I see that message on my device.
[Nokia 7 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] Gravemind2015:
The one from OTA section should do the job, it's under (Android*Pie 9.0*Developer*Preview:).

BTW, adbd should mean stopping adb deamon (adb service). I don't know if it's a standard procedure, as I never took notice of it. I rarely use adb. Sorry.

[Nokia 7 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] edwaine:
Well, did you try checking your device manager and see if your device recognized on your PC?
[Nokia 7 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] Saswata Chakraborty:
Yes Sir. Even when I type adb devices or fastboot devices, it shows my device number. Anyway, let me try one more time. And thank you once again for your contribution to both Nokia 7 plus and Mi A1.

---------- Post added at 11:18 ---------- Previous post was at 11:03 ----------

Thank you, buddy! I am downloading the July rollback OTA (1.3GB). Let hope it works.

---------- Post added at 11:49 ---------- Previous post was at 11:18 ----------

Problem solved. After successfully sideloading July rollback OTA, now I can update OTA. Thank you so much for your help!!!
[Nokia 7 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] Saswata Chakraborty:
Did Nokia stop enrolling for Android Pie beta program??
[Nokia 7 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] edwaine:
No problem, just a quick tip, for faster and easier sideload, you can avail and SD Card and flash OTA thru SD Card. That way you can skip the adb.
[Nokia 7 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] edwaine:
Yep, just after Nokia released 2.22M.
[Nokia 7 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] Saswata Chakraborty:
That means the latest August update was released to make the device Pie ready. (I think)

---------- Post added at 11:57 ---------- Previous post was at 11:55 ----------

Okay, so I can sideload through SD card as well? And one more thing. Are the OTA files available in this post, untouched or is there a possibility that they might have got tempered or something. I mean to say, they are all genuine, right?
[Nokia 7 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] edwaine:
Yep that's what I said on my earlier post since this 2.22M update is still in August. It could be the last update in Android Oreo.

All OTA Stable links came from google OTA servers. Android Pie Developer Previews 1 to 3 are uploaded to my AndroidFileHost. So yeah, all of them are untouched.
[Nokia 7 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] Saswata Chakraborty:
Thanks buddy. I used your fastboot rom file for my Mi A1 when Xiaomi website was down, and now you are helping Nokia 7 users as well.
[Nokia 7 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] r3hut:
i have sideloaded 2.22M august update through adb.can i roll back to previous updates through sideload?and can i sideload latest developer preview now that i've updated to 2.22M ? will i get OTA of stable android pie if i'm on developer preview?

device is ta-1062 CN 6 gb version with custom global rom.it shows "device is not certified" on play store,and i've been stuck on may update.so i decided to sideload all following updates.

thanks in advance.

3.51F broke exfat support, as far as I know.

Besides that I could not find any issue up to now.

Finally arrived in Ireland on my ta-1055...
[Nokia 7 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] ban.codrut:
Arrived in Italy too.

Big suprise for me as I am on 1.32E Oreo. Before the 3.51F I was promnted to update to Pie 3.22D.

Better for me they released this one as full package, I wanted to try dual booting Oreo and Pie using A/B partition and now I can set it up anytime I need it.

Did you guys ever tried booting the passive partition after Pie update? Does it work without apps FCing ?

Quoting myself here. Someone said I would need to flash the stock (unpatched) boot image to fix this.

Can someone tell me where to get this file from the newest version (35f, March security) and how to flash this?

Thanks.

[Nokia 7 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] xsycox:
Thank you very ****ing much. :)
[Nokia 7 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] xsycox:
Can I ask you something else?

As we have no fixed/installed TWRP, how is it possible to make a complete nandroid backup, I mean a complete backup of the current state? Usually, I did that before I updated anything system-wide (ROM or security update) by going into TWRP and doing a backup there. I think it is a reasonable and crucial step. How can we do that (and restore it, of course) with our N7p?

[Nokia 7 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] McKebapp:
Had this good old trouble again:

This time rolling back totally and rolling forward didn't help.

But flashing the full march ROM dirty made me able to install the latest OTA, the OTA way... :confused:

Therefore I'm on April patchlevel, once "optimising your apps" has finished to heat up my phone...

I don't understand this phone anymore :crying: :silly: :D
[Nokia 7 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] k3dar7:
Strange, for me with N7p with Magisk+TWRP(PermanentInstaller) installed, work regulery OTA Update, without need anything manually, only click to Update and after finish to Reboot ...

Ofcourse, after reboot i reboot agan to TWRP..-noflash version and install from USB-c Magisk19 and TWRPPermanent :)

My phone was root and I used Xposed. I uninstall Xposed, flash march_p_stock_boot.img to remove Magisk. The update is still not work

Error Code:

Installing update
Step 1/2
Error aplying update: 20 (ErrorCode: :kDownloadStateInitializationError)
E:Error in sideload/package.zip (Status 1)

EDIT: Solution for me:

1) Flash B2N-351F-0-00WW-B04.zip by sideload

2) Flash OTA April update by sideload

3) Flash April_patched_boot_Magisk18.img

4) Install Magisk Manager

5) Install Xposed
[Nokia 7 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] McKebapp:
xposed for pie?

Is there something like that?

Okay, found EDXposed. :)
[Nokia 7 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] xsycox:
Hi guys,

I wrote down a note for the next OTA to come like this:

Unfortunately, this does not work, as I was trying to get the newest security update (April). Alone in step 1, when I try to uninstall Magisk, the manager app tells me:

So, I downloaded the Magisk uninstaller zip myself onto a USB stick and went into download mode and TWRP by "fastboot boot Nokia7plusv3.2.1.0-noflash.img" method, but that there I could not flash it, either (status/error code: 1).

I am not so sure what to do next, as I cannot get the security update before getting rid of Magisk.
[Nokia 7 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] srabon debnath:
Can't install the april sp due to signature issue on my 7 plus, TA-1062. Any solution for that?
[Nokia 7 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] k3dar7:
strange, as i write above. this time i NOT uninstall Magisk/Magiskmanager or TWRP, simple doing Update via OTA by click to Update :) btw: after update and reinstall TWRP and Magisk i also have in MagiskManager list all me previous installed plugins...
[Nokia 7 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] xsycox:
This is really weird. The update absolutely does not get through. When I click it, it downloads the files and then on installation it breaks up with "installation problem".

Also, I do not understand, why I cannot uninstall Magisk, be it in the app or in the fastboot-booted TWRP.

Could it be, the internal storage or system is crypted or something like that?!
[Nokia 7 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] death_jax:
Worked also for me this solution (but I flashed Magisk v19.1 from TWRP):

If you have stock recovery

:

Reboot to stock recovery

Sideload B2N-351F-0-00WW-B04.zip (march full ROM)

Reboot to stock recovery (this is useful for swapping slots)

Sideload B2N-353A-0-00WW-B01-351F-0-00WW-B04-update.zip (april security patch)

Reboot to bootloader

Boot (NOT flash!!) TWRP noflash decrypt

(OPTIONAL) Flash custom kernel

(OPTIONAL) Flash TWRP Permanent installer

Flash Magisk

Reboot

Install EdXposed

If you have permanent TWRP

:

Reboot to bootloader

Through fastboot, flash stock boot image (based on your current security patch)

Reboot to stock recovery

Sideload B2N-351F-0-00WW-B04.zip (march full ROM)

Reboot to stock recovery (this is useful for swapping slots)

Sideload B2N-353A-0-00WW-B01-351F-0-00WW-B04-update.zip (april security patch)

Reboot to bootloader

Boot (NOT flash!!) TWRP noflash decrypt

(OPTIONAL) Flash custom kernel

Flash TWRP Permanent installer

Flash Magisk

Reboot

Install EdXposed

Where to get this TWRP no-flash decrypt file?
[Nokia 7 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] Baskettoman:
I have TA-1062 stuck at 8.1 with May 1 2018 security update. Contacted the customer support several times, but it is always the usual response "Your phone is special Chinese version, it will get software updates later than global release..."

To think I bought this phone for software updates...

Could anyone tell me how to go for installing the updates? I'm pretty novice when it comes to installing custom software. I would appreciate if any kind soul gives me a direection. :)
[Nokia 7 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] xsycox:
There is a post here somewhere on how to change the Chinese ROM on a Nokia 7 plus to a world-wide one.
[Nokia 7 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] irrevion:
It is not Chinese ROM, Its Hong-Kong version with Global ROM, but it did not receive updates since 1 may 2018. The same as mine.

---------- Post added at 12:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:42 PM ----------

Hi, I have TA-1062 too, it also got tuck at 1 May 2018 and I passed through all updates from 1 June 2018 to 1 April 2019 manually. Firstly I used caller method, now using adb.
[Nokia 7 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] Baskettoman:
:)

Would you be willing to teach me how to do it if it is not too much of a bother? The most I struggle with atm is lack of VoLTE, I heard it gets fixed with later updates.
[Nokia 7 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] death_jax:
I updated my post with link :)
[Nokia 7 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] Baskettoman:
Did all the updates until April. I was in WW 3.39B SP02 January 2019 -> WW 3.39B SP03 February 2019 branch of updates.

Navigation gestures are gone, tap to wake is gone. I'm not sure if the device is certified as it does not show.

February was the last stable build, FYI.

OT:

I didn't know sh*t before attempting to do this, now I feel confident I can even flash a custom rom :D
[Nokia 7 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] xsycox:
I went through with your steps and my phone is now on the newest update with a decrypted internal storage.

One question though: How to remove the permanent TWRP, when you did that optional step, but want to go back to (nearly) original state?

Thanks you very much.
[Nokia 7 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] death_jax:
In order to went back to (nearly) original state, you simply flash the original boot image (of your current security patch) :)
[Nokia 7 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] bigwave2:
Accidentally flashed Chinese firmware

I bought a UK Single SIM Nokia 7 Plus (TA-1055) and it was refusing to upgrade to Android Pie, so I planned to sideload the upgrade as described. I meant to flash B2N-322C-0-00WW-B01-222I-0-00WW-B05-update.zip.

However I mistakenly downloaded and flashed the Chinese version (B2N-337A-0-00CN-B04-update.zip)

The update appeared to work and it still looked pretty much the same however there were a number of issues which caused me to perform a factory reset. After the factory reset though it looked like a completely different operating system.

I have tried to flash the correct (WW) firmware but I get the error message “Package is for product B2N_sprout but expected B2N”

The Nokia bootloader unlock app fails to run, so it is not currently rooted.

I have adb and fastboot access.

How can I flash a "world wide" firmware (of any version)?

Cheers.

[Nokia 7 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] Baskettoman:
It was 1062. No idea what it is now as it doesn't seem to show in Pie. Perhaps after March update, they are merged into one version?
