OTA Updates Always Get To Me Last - eviltoast

Am I doing something wrong? I’ve been on Pixel devices since the first one, and on Android since Donut. For some reason it feels like I’m at the bottom of the roll out list. At this point everyone I personally know has received the 14 update and I’m still waiting (on my 7 Pro).

I’m wondering if I’ll even receive it before my 8 Pro gets here in a few days. Besides spamming the button to check in the phone settings, is there something else to do that can force it sooner?

    Are you using T-Mobile at all? I wasn’t seeing the Android 14 update on my p7, but then I swapped to a US Mobile Sim and the download was available. I kicked it off and swapped back to the T-Mobile sim and the download stopped and returned to saying no update was available. While I’d like the update to be available to all users regardless, it seems carriers still may have a say.

          Today my phone screen turned completely green for a little while, then Gmail was crashing, and Chrome froze on me. I wonder if they were holding it back for a good reason.

          My 8 Pro arrives tomorrow, so I guess it’s moot.
