I thought they were saying Android Q would be released in August?

Humm, they were, but things might be a bit delayed. AFAIK, Beta 6 is not out, yet.

I think they messed to with the navigation gestures that's why the delay

They should just use fling and be done with it

You have not updated since July 2018?

Kidding aside, that sounds too large for just two months of security updates.

Guys, I'm rooted and usually do NOT get OTAs.

This time the system downloaded 1182 MB of OTA. How do I delete this? I will manually update and don't want the system to do automatically and need my space back.

It says to restart the system to update and that is is already installed. Will my phone crash - since the update won't work as I'm rooted.

Does this wreck root, etc? (Haven't touched any of that since I bought the phone in Feb or so)

You need to turn off automatic OTA updates in developer options. I've had this happen to me before also though. What I did was was download the factory image to my pc and then plugged my phone in to the pc. Adb reboot bootloader then fastboot the new image. Let the phone restart and then boot to bootloader again and fastboot TWRP. You can then install magisk and be good to go. As long as you can get to fastboot you should be fine.

Lol, in case anyone was wondering, it DOES. Now I have to learn how to do this all over again, just isn't part of my every day life

I was rooted with a N6 and jokingly looked for and began downloading an update knowing full well it was gonna bork and abort as it always had. The joke was on me; it updated. Lost root but got it back.
