Pixel 6a test build mixup
- We released an Android 14 test build for the Pixel 6a last week, CalyxOS 5.0.0
- We also released a final Android 13 upgrade just after that, CalyxOS 4.14.1
- Unfortunately, that final Android 13 upgrade was also accidendally rolled out to Android 14 users, which wouldn’t work given it’s a downgrade. Our apologies for this.
The fix
- If you’re running 4.14.1 already with your data intact, you can ignore this
- If you’re on 5.0.1 or newer already, you can ignore this
- If you’re on 5.0.0 and haven’t rebooted yet, you can reboot and then:
- If you’re shown a screen with two options “Try again” or “Factory data reset”
- If you keep choosing “Try again” eventually it’ll boot back to 5.0.0, at which point it should
Note
- Over-the-air Updates: CalyxOS updates are delivered over-the-air (OTA) automatically, without any manual intervention needed. However, if you'd like to manually update your CalyxOS install, see OTA.
- Security Updates: The Pixel 8a, 8 Pro, 8, Fold, Tablet, 7a, 7 Pro, 7, 6a, 6 Pro, 6 contain the full security patch, as they are still being updated by Google.
- Security Updates: The Fairphone 4, 5, Motorola moto g32, moto g42, moto g52 stock OS follows a different security update release schedule, which usually lags behind by a month or two compared to Pixels. The CalyxOS releases for it only contain the latest fixes to the open source components, such as the OS code and the Linux kernel. Proprietary components such as the bootloader, modem firmware, and other firmware get updates as soon as the stock OS update is available.
- End-of-life: The Pixel 5a (5G), 4a (5G), 5, 4a, 4 XL, 4 are no longer being updated by the manufacturer, so the CalyxOS releases for these devices only contain the fixes to the open source components, such as the OS code and the Linux kernel. Proprietary components such as the bootloader, modem firmware, and other firmware no longer get updates.
