Does anyone have the ZVB tot. I see the ZVA-to-ZVB update zip but it say forbidden when I try to download that. For some reason I cannot get the update OTA... maybe it isn't pushed to the tower that I'm using yet?

autoprime had a secret source for the .tot.
But if mediafire won't let you dl the update, I can upload it for you if you want.

Where did you find the ZVA-to-ZVB update zip? My phone gets stuck at "rebooting now" when I try to apply the update normally, so I want to apply the OTA via ADB.

Could you upload it for me?

Sorry if this is a dumb question, I'm new to tinkering with the G3 (my daily driver is a Nexus 6), is a tot file the same as an OTA zip, or is it more of a factory image equivalent? I don't particularly want to root or install TWRP. I just wanted to use the stock reovery "apply update via ADB"
A tot is a factory image but you need your computer to install it.

Okay, I figured as much - is there a way like Nexus images to install without wiping? I looked briefly at the install process, and it seems you need a Windows computer? Thanks for being so helpful, I know this is OT.
No there is not a way to use a tot without wiping and yes you need a windows computer.
