I have installed a internal Pie build that a friend from WhatsApp shares for me, but I don't know if I will receive the official Pie OTA that was released today, and I'm afraid. If someone could capture the OTA link and shares here I'll be fully thankful. Cheers from Mexico! :)

Can someone post a walkthrough how to install the pie update with a locked bootloader?
[Nokia 8 Sirocco Guides, News, & Discussion] Audioboxer:
I've tried to rename this so that it should automatically pick it up if you put it on the root of your sdcard (internal storage) and reboot the phone.

Try it for me

https://mega.nz/#!fYUAgQJY!p6kO-B-IFwz0NhDv4ZlrDCQYKQGakH3fy9GbfG_kmDM

If it works I'll update OP. If it doesn't automatically pick it up we can sideload it, but it should be named correctly.
[Nokia 8 Sirocco Guides, News, & Discussion] marccoppers:
This can't damage my phone right?
[Nokia 8 Sirocco Guides, News, & Discussion] Audioboxer:
No, it's the official OTA. It's untouched and encrypted.

Because my bootloader is unlocked I can access my system data partition and pull OTA off my phone. It's called update.zip by default, so we try to rename it to what a Nokia phone will pickup itself when stored on root of SD card.

Otherwise we can just sideload the .zip file through recovery no matter what its called. That takes a few more steps though so I'm trying to get the naming correct to make it easier for everyone.
[Nokia 8 Sirocco Guides, News, & Discussion] marccoppers:
Oke, downloading right now.
[Nokia 8 Sirocco Guides, News, & Discussion] Audioboxer:
Thanks, if it works for you I'll start posting link out to reddit/community forums.

edit: Noticed a small typo already. File should be named A1N-4120-0-00WW-B03-310N-0-00WW-B01-update.zip. Fixed name on Megalink, just rename it yourself once downloaded and before moving onto sdcard.

I've a few follow up questions, if you may, I don't have a Sirocco with unlocked bootloader, do I need to unlock it in order to flash the files you provided?

And if so, can I gain root access without unlocking bootloader?

Say, if something goes downhill, can I roll back to latest version by just flashing the latest version?

Extract update.zip file after the OTA done downloading

unpack the update.zip then you get boot.img

Use Magisk Manager (App)-> install ->Patch Boot Image File-> Choose the Boot.img -> file saved

Take Saved file from Download Folder and copy it to PC (Patched_boot.img)

Done

:laugh::good:
[Nokia 8 Sirocco Guides, News, & Discussion] realjack_1:
it seems easy...

...the security patch is downloaded to the data / ota_package folder and

the file name of september is update_s.zip ... but inside there is no .img file
[Nokia 8 Sirocco Guides, News, & Discussion] Safarend:
You find a file named payload.bin you need to extract the img from it (Use payload_dumper.py) :silly:

I will try today hopefully

Edit:

This update is an incremental firmware update not full OTA be careful it will require the old files first :)

[Nokia 8 Sirocco Guides, News, & Discussion] Safarend:
This update is a patch update (using the difference between the old and new and only take the differences)so it requires the previous boot.img as well.

What I'm doing now:

calculate the sha1 of August boot.img and append it to the name (stock_boot_ab85560af285f5dec30ef44e9907f31bd729a59a.img) then compress it using gzip so it will become *.img.gz

place the gz file in /data/

open Magisk Manager and scroll down then click "Uninstall" > "Restore Images" (without rebooting)

update the device from settings (without rebooting)

after update finishes open Magisk Manager click on <Install to Inactive Slot>

<Reboot>

will tell you if it worked :laugh:

have boot image (android 10) security patch 01 april 2020 ?
[Nokia 8 Sirocco Guides, News, & Discussion] KVY:
Hi all,

Last month my Sirocco got some problems with USB - it works only short time after reboot and than stops working. No charge, no connection to PC, wireless charging also stops, reboot doesn't work as well - just turns the phone off but doesn't boot it back.

At the same time if USB cable is connected when I turn the phone on or if I connect it in a very short time after that - everything works fine till I disconnect the cable...

I guess that might be a software problem and try to solve it myself.

I've tried do reset to factory settings from Settings menu, hard reset from Recovery - nothing helped in that :(

So, now I'd like to reinstall the whole OS from file - if that won't help then it might be a hardware issue and I would go to a service.:eek:

My Sirocco is not unlocked, got all possible updates already and runs Android 10 with security patch from May 2020.

Is it possible to install Android 9 over 10 using file I found here on https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=78636328&postcount=31?

If that is possible - will I still receive recent updates OTA after that?

Or I should look for Android 10 image?
[Nokia 8 Sirocco Guides, News, & Discussion] KVY:

[Nokia 8 Sirocco Guides, News, & Discussion] luke2020:
Thanks! I was able to extract the boot.img from that, patch with magisk, and flash to restore root (which I lost when I did the OTA update). I've made this patched image available here.

There's been an OTA update since this, 'Google Security Patch 2020-05', it downloads but then fails on installation (running magisk patched boot). I got its payload.bin and tried to use the --diff option of payload_dumper (since it's an incremental update); it works for the first two images but on boot.img, I get the error "Unsupported type = 9".

I also tried 'uninstalling' magisk without rebooting (as described here), then attempting the update, but the installation still failed. I'm not too worried about it, but am curious about the cause of the error in payload_dumper. I found this mention of the same error.

Hi guys,

I did a mistake. I have my bootloader unlocked and on android 9, but because i had to many issues recently i have upgraded to android 10. Everything was good until i downloaded the boot.img for android 10 in this post. and patched it with magisk. Now it does not boot anymore.

So does anyone have the latest boot.img ????I really do not want to flash a older version of 10 on this, especially since i have not done any back-up.

Solved it!

I have sideloaded the July2020 OTA full update and now it works. I have extracted the payload.bin and going to patch the boot.img and go from there

Done ! i have Magisk now on android 10.

For who is interested here are some links :

Source for Latest OTA : https://www.getdroidtips.com/nokia-8-sirocco-stock-firmware/

Payload dumper (for extracting .img files from pauload.bin) : https://www.the***********.com/how-to-extract-android-payload-bin-file/ You can use the boot.img resulted from here to patch through Magisk and then flash it in download mode
[Nokia 8 Sirocco Guides, News, & Discussion] Iwanteefa:
Below are my backups of stock and patched boot images for Sirocco (A1N) version 5140 (2020-07) and onwards to 514M (2021-07) :

4.81 GB folder on MEGA

62 files and 17 subfolders

mega.nz

Because of issues with Incremental OTA in the OTA Payload_dumper tool, dumping boot.img from incremental OTA is not possible at the moment, so these are copied from backups Magisk create in /data/ during OTA update process (guide).

After OTA update remember to copy backup from /data/magisk_backup_**sha1** (check timestamp if there are more than one). Extract and patch image and back them up elsewhere! After a factory reset, there will be no stock boot image backups in /data/, so do like Safarend mentioned to regain "Restore Images".

Thanks!
[Nokia 8 Sirocco Guides, News, & Discussion] imp3rd1349:
Hello guys,

I faced some issues with Android Q(10) update in August 2020 which broke the gps connection.

I used the phone almost one year with Android 10 and I used the bootloader unlock service offered by Hikari Calyx then downgraded the phone to Android 8.1.0 fw with some zip file found on the internet.

The unlock of bootloader and fw downgrade went perfectly fine and the gps started to work again.

This year I tried again the Android 10(May 2021 security patch) the issue with gps is still there. (I think it can be solved by replacing gps.conf file also there is a module for magisk to do this)

I downgraded it again to Android 8.1.0 then tried different versions of stock firmware between 8.1.0 and 10.

I found that with Android 9(Pie) the gps is working fine. I found on the internet the full fw version 414F(August 2019 security patch) and flashed the phone with it.

I want to install the Android 9(Pie) latest security patch which is March 2020 fw version 414M. I found on the internet OTAs dump below:

- 414G(Sept 2019)

- 414H(Oct 2019)

- 414I(Nov 2019)

- 414J(Dec 2019)

- 414K(Jan 2020)

- 414L(Feb 2020)

- 414M(Mar 2020)

I know how to install the OTAs by rebooting phone into recovery mode and choose install update from adb then send the zip update file with adb sideload ota.zip reboot and reapeat until I install all the OTAs.

I want to root the phone after installing the 414M(March 2020 patch) but I was not able to figure out how to extract the boot.img file required by magisk to patch and flash with fastboot flash boot_magisk_patched.img.

I already rooted the phone in version 414F and is working fine. I know that before updating the phone I need to remove the root first.

There is a tool called payload-dumper written in python that can build the .img files with the differences from an ota update if you run this command payload_dumper.py --diff payload.bin and the old .img files need to be in the old folder.

In fw 414F package found some .img files are missing like abl.img... I don't know if there is a method to extract *.img from a firmware package. My fw is already extracted and not in .nb0 format.

If I run payload_dumper.py payload.bin on a full ota I get all the .img files extracted but to use differential update old .img files are required first.

I asked this to obtain the stock boot.img to patch with magisk and root the phone on Android Pie march 2020 patch.

My phone is Nokia 8 Sirocco TA-1005 A1N.

Thanks!

Hello,

You can extract the boot.img from the full OTA that contain the Android 10 May 2021 Security Patch.

If you search on the internet "Nokia OTA Repository" you can find the file A1N-514L-0-00WW-B01(Android 10 May 2021 Security Patch).

View attachment 5637745

To extract the stock boot.img you need:

1.Install python 3.10.5 x64

2.Download the payload-dumper is already shared on this thread

3.Run pip install -r requirments.txt to install the payload-dumper prerequisites

4.Extract the file A1N-514L-0-00WW-B01 and run python payload_dumper payload.bin and you will find the boot.img in the output folder.

On my side I did not tested this to root the phone on Android 10 since I have issues with gps connection in the latest version.

The method above worked for me to extract boot.img from A1N-4120-0-00WW-B03-310N-0-00WW-B01_OTA.zip which is an early Android Pie build full OTA package.

This early Pie build I installed last week on my phone and I was able to root the phone with magisk but after a few days I upgraded it to 414F when I found the full fw package on the internet and rooted it again.

I attached a short video how to extract boot.img from the full OTA package.
