Anyone got that OTA link? I'm sideloading updates because Sprint.
The install freezes on step 2/2, i'm not rooted, and i tried to restart, no installed. What should I do ?
AgreedYou sure it froze? The update does take kinda long on the second step

A little bit of patience usually do the trick.About 1 hour ?
Think it froze, and i rebooted

you just flash this over F using fastboot?
n.m. something like this? Guess I can't use TWRP for this. ===> https://9to5google.com/2017/10/24/how-to-manually-sideload-install-ota-update-file-android-basics/
Yea, TWRP works. But I've been just sideloading ota's instead of unlocking and rooting for the last few years. It has also been super fast and easy with the essential.
Drivers:
https://www.essential.com/developer/current-builds
Google and install "Minimal ADB and Fastboot."
Download and put the ota zip file in the fastboot folder (I always rename it to the build number, too)

Yeah I saw the post, unfortunate that the build date is restricted. I was trying to change the build dates but I'm not sure where Essential is creating their hashes, so it'll Error 21 on me saying that it's not a verified package unfortunately. Oh well, I may just wait till official Oreo since I used Android Wear and would like some battery life haha.
