Hello, i am currently on pure nexus with the April update on tmobile (pixel xl). I have a few questions I'm hoping someone could answer before diving in. Which factory image do i use, 7.1.2 May N2G47T? I would like to be able to take ota updates after I'm done, i take it that this would now be possible then? Also, do i need to relock my bootloader to take ota updates. Thanks

No, that is the image for Deutsce Telekom. You want N2G47K. They are labeled on the full image page.

You do not need to relock to get ota's

Hey there buddy,

Google's website for Factory and OTA includes images/releases from certain carriers. I live in Canada for example so version 7.1.0(I think?) has a release for my specific carrier, so whenever I factory reset, I use that one then relock my bootloader directly after. This leads me to receiving proper OTA everytime.

Other than finding your own carrier image, your best bet is using the standard build flash.

Always be careful with flashing and tinkering and best of luck! =]

Yes. There are three. Verizon, Dutch Telecom and everyone else. Tmobile is in the everyone else category so you are good with that one.
I myself am with Tmobile as well and still on N2G47E, April's Build.

I didn't upgrade to May's build because I read there was an issue with TWRPRC1/RC2 or SU with the bootloader on May

I was wondering if this issue has been solved? Is there another zip I need to flash as well?

So far I have been sticking with Stock Rom, but I root with SU and use elemental X kernal with TWRP. thanks!
