I see Star Wars, the Klingons, a mirrored Swastika, Harry Potter, and a few others in there.

Today my phone screen turned completely green for a little while, then Gmail was crashing, and Chrome froze on me. I wonder if they were holding it back for a good reason.

My 8 Pro arrives tomorrow, so I guess it’s moot.

Using T-Mobile but so is my wife on her 6 Pro so maybe 7 Pro specific?

Easy peasy - side loaded and done. Thanks again

Oh well that changes things then. I tried to use the Android Flash Tool and it wanted unlock my bootloader first. It’s been a while since I’ve messed with this. I’ll take a look. Thanks

Yeah I’ve done it plenty of times too… In this case I don’t want to wipe (during the initial bootloader unlock) and then get a new phone in a few days. Too much work to set everything up twice.

The other issue of course is that Google can’t expect that to be the obvious behavior for users. Updates can and should just roll out on time for all users.
