The official PIE beta was installed over the official Oreo with November patch.
[Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] pecholino:
when subscribing to betalabs, I received the dec patch first. then pie beta.
[Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] stuffynet:
Not in my case. Went from Oreo with November patch to PIE beta with December patch.
[Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ajgftw:
So it would seem then that people receiving the December patch doesn't mean it's instead of the OS update

Did someone get OTA update from Pie beta to Pie offiicial release?
[Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] OneWayGamer:
I think the beta and the official update is same expect the feedback app lmao
[Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ajgftw:
If it were up to me I'd just send out an "official pie release OTA" to all the beta users that does nothing but remove the feedback app.

Placebos for everyone! ?
[Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] TeddyBeers:
I hope so not.

Pie beta contains at least few major bugs.

- Bluetooth quiet often doesn't connect (aka deep sleep)

- auto brightness is well to dark comparing to oreo

- battery life after few days is actually worst than on oreo. It's 'better for few first days, probably because cache wipe after updating, than goes down.
[Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] webvan:
" - auto brightness is well to dark comparing to oreo"

That seems to be a problem with Pie, same on the Xiaomi Mi 8. Apparently if you keep adjusting the brightness it will "learn"... I have forced it to 50%...
[Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] b1g1an:
It's not a 'problem', it's how it's supposed to work. It gets you to say how bright you want it for a particular scenario and remembers. You may like it darker than normal in bright scenarios and brighter than normal in dark scenarios, once you've told it it will adapt accordingly, much better than the old you get whatever the dev felt like giving you method.
[Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Toedwarrior:
To be clear, that beta installed december security patch as well as pie
[Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] stuffynet:
Yes, but as one package, not separate.

I'm not agree with you.at all.

Add downgraded widevine DRM security level to L3 to the list of the "bugs". I've heard that even on the pie stable build the widevine level is still L3..

---------- Post added at 07:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:37 AM ----------

Same for my Nokia 8 TA-1012 as well. I got the pie beta update as soon as I signed up and got December security update in one single OTA update.

How to roll back to stable Oreo from pie beta? I checked back the beta labs site where there used to be an option to request stable oreo ota, but my phone is no longer visible there and on trying to add IMEI again, it shows IMEI already in use.

Should I stick with the Beta version until they release an Update for us or roll back to Oreo ans download the latest OTA to Pie?
[Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ssrki:
Stay with beta, this official Pie is same as beta, Pie with new features will arrive at January for all of us (Pie beta, and official Pie)

[Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] nutley:

[Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Qball_NL:
No, no data loss.
[Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Whybal:
Personally i don't want to be a beta user when Android Pie update is around the corner.
[Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] paja97:
Its stupid to we don't get update but we don't lose anything (we don't get anything others users will get) we must wait for January update. my opinion is to better stay at 8.1 to next update.
[Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] stuffynet:
Do anyone with a TA-1004 got the OTA?

OK. Here is what worked:

VPN (Germany) + market enabler (Germany code)... Done Now downloading. I will update you on the new simple root method if it works :P
[Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Kiwironic:
While I was unable to update (probably something to do with root) but I managed to grab the Zip update file:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1LK79vROFDuKeFDA3o2YiL4b7Ocl5_Fnb/view?usp=sharing

Here is what I have tried:

- Restore Oct stock boot image

- Disable and uninstall magisk

- Flash update using stock recovery

None worked: error: Error ErrorCode::kDownloadStateInitializationError (20)

Might be because of region update lock so not root related. what a waste of time :(
[Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] czupyt:
It is a pity that you don't have other zips. People for sure appreciate it:) in case something goes wrong, updating via sideload is much much faster.
[Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Kiwironic:
I will always try to share whatever files/knowledge I have. I have to admit, despite failing in doing what I wanted to do, I enjoyed trying to get the challenge solved, and each time I make a little step forward, I feel achievement.

I wanted to debug the error more, especially that after restoring the Oct stock boot image, the update should be done fine. But then I remembered that I need to have my phone operating as I am waiting on a few phone calls. Anyway, it's just me being impatient and looking for a puzzle to solve, pie is 10 days (more or less) away, so should be alright.
[Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] czupyt:
It is always good when one tries to solve problems. If it wasn't for that, we would stuck with problems relying only on Nokia service:)

When I look for updates, the phone always tells me that I am already with the most recent one. I need to get to the September update to be able to unlock the bootloader and root, but no method to update is working for me.

On pie beta I've done factory reset.

"Beta" disappeared from system information.

This makes me think that actually pie beta and so called stable are exactly the same.

Does it work to update from december patch and keep root? Using normal steps 1. restore stock images in magisk, 2. OTA update, 3 reinstall magisk to other partition after OTA, 4 reboot? especially step 3, install to other inactive slot (now with pie..), does this step work?
[Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ssrki:
And yes, it is the same. Look in the build number. It is the same

[Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ILoveAndroid77:
thanks did work, but in second try.

first try I totally f...ed up and accidentally hit restart while grabing the phone, after update and just before reinstalling to inactive slot.

so as switching slots and restart Oreo Dec. patch did not work, stuck with Nokia logo, I went back to stock Oreo June, and after wiping and whatnot ever it rebooted and offered pie again, from June patch!

now running rooted pie... :)
[Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] webvan:
Wow, I feel your pain ! But with my guide to go back to Oreo there are at least some clear steps to follow, it just takes time ;)

But I already used this way last week when I got the phone with november patch installed. No way to boot twrp without downgrade to oreo from june.

So now it was jus some clicks as every was available/running yet.

Last time after downgrade via july, august, september, october, november to decembe :eek:

so I was happy to see that an update to pie is possible from june. saved a lot of time.

[Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ajgftw:
I would suspect it would just be the result of their internal version control procedures.

A beta build and a release build could have an identical change log but still have different version numbers.

Got Pie 2 days back. Adaptive brightness and battery life have improved a lot. Camera became worse, especially during the night. Can't seem to focus properly if there's bright and dark objects mixed together. Google camera port became glitchy. It was my main camera back in Oreo. No well being or app actions though. Nokia camera app is glitchy as well. When you use display resolution beside from default, you will see double icons in camera interface.
[Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] foxbatul:
- google camera port works like a charm ( oreo and pie)

- batt live - great ( as usual), more than 5 hours SOT + 4 to 5 days!

For all those who are still waiting for Pie, this is the captured OTA URL: https://android.googleapis.com/pack.../59bd9a533025ca61629b32eb85fd6e410705c1dc.zip

Don't worry about the TA-1004 references, the OTA will work on all models.

If you want to update to Pie directly you can download that zip file and install it by either sideloading it through the stock recovery, or by renaming it to "NB1-5110-0-00WW-B05-update.zip",

copying it to the root of your internal storage, and then dialing *#*#874#*#*. This also allows you to keep root by installing Magisk to the inactive slot. It doesn't matter which security patch you

have, you only need a stock boot image. I will fetch stock and TWRP prepatched images later and upload them as well (maybe after christmas though, let's see).

Have fun with your Christmas Pie! (or rather Dough given the actual features :P)

(It seems that XDA had a hiccup and posted this 3 times by accident. I updated the post and apologize for potential mail spam.)

Try to go into stock recovery and sideload it. I don't really have a lot experience with the dialer method, and just did a quick check on oreo if it works.

It is possible that it doesn't work on the Pie beta since the release build is technically even older than the beta one (Beta was B07, release is B05).

[Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Palaryel:
I tried booting your twrp prepatched image (fastboot boot <image name>), it uploads, restarts and remains hanging at the android logo (the same happened when i tried the latest official TWRP images). Any solutions to that? I want to only temporarily boot the recovery in order to flash the Magisk zip for root and then continue staying on stock recovery
[Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] THMSP:
Thats because as of the August security update temporarily booting an image is broken (doesn't even work with stock images). You have to actually flash that prepatched image into your boot partition so it replaces stock recovery with TWRP.
[Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Palaryel:
Found a workaround:

Installed the Magisk APK, put the stock image you provided into shared storage, patched it with Magisk (Install -> Patch Boot Image File) and then flashed that one as boot, hence got root and retained the stock recovery which was the goal (also, for whatever reason the Magisk patched boot image was ~13Mb smaller than the provided stock image).

Another unrelated question:

My current active boot slot is _b, apparently _a is empty (found it out the hard way, set _a to active and forced it to boot into nothing, took me a while to figure out how to turn off the phone to reenter fastboot - every guide says hold VolUp+power for 10-20 sec, in my case i had to hold it for 60-70 sec). Anyways, the question is: is it possible (if yes, how?) to copy the contents of _b into _a so that both boot into the same system (currently, that would obviously change after another patch is released)?

Hey all and Merry Christmas :)

I have zero experience with manually installing roms on Nokia 8 , so bare with any stupid questions!

1) I was on beta , i reverted , i got december security patch and waiting for pie.Bootlocker locked , no root , no nothing.

2) If i download the leaked rom as i understand i have 2 ways to install it .By copying on internal root folder and hit the dialpad code or by sideloading through stock recovery.

a) For the first way , do i need root to write something on root folder?Never tried to write something there.

b) Do i need to unlock the bootloader regardless the way i will choose?

c) Will i get future OTA updates if i will manually install anything?

Thanks for any info.
[Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] THMSP:
This isn't a leaked ROM, this is the official update package you would get by HMD if you would wait until it appears in your update search.

You need no root or unlocked bootloader to apply it (it is what your phone would do anyways if you would wait for it). OTA updates will continue to work as well.

There is no difference between waiting for the update and applying this, except that the randomness factor is taken out and you can decide when to get the update :)

About Digital wellbeing: install the apk from apkmirror (after updating to pie). Install pixel shortcuts from play store. Use a shortcut to get access to the app. In the app there is an option to make it appear in the app drawer. Enable that and then u don't need pixel shortcuts anymore (go ahead and uninstall it). Digital wellbeing appears on your apps.

How do I get into internal root folder to place the OTA and install it... without rooting my devices.
[Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Quppa:
Just use the 'Files' app to move the file to the root (i.e. topmost folder) of internal storage (and rename it to the specified filename). This doesn't require root permissions.
[Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Aryavart:
Done thanks...
[Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] TeddyBeers:
Thanks for the file.

Actually this is not OTA it's full PIE rom - even better.

Metadata file doesn't require any specific version to be installed, so it can sideloaded to any NB1 device.

*#*#874#*#* trick no longer works on pie. Worked to update from oreo to pie, but once you're on pie it will not trigger update process.

What works is restart to recovery, then "sideload OTA"
