Is there a comprehensive list of all (user-facing) changes and new settings?
I thought Android Police did a pretty good job.
Thanks! In the meantime I also found a video by In Depth Tech Reviews (great channel) in which many changes are shown.
Just reporting in. Pixel 7 on T-Mobile and nothing yet. I tried that trick by turning off the SIM and checked over Wi-Fi too and nothing. I'll get it when I get it, no big deal.
Ditto, looked at the side loading options too, and it just seems like a lot of fuss in just to get the update up-to a week or so early.
I tried sideloading an update several times earlier this year and just had a lot of problems. It kept failing half way through and I got annoyed and gave up. Back in the Cyanogenmod days I would flash updates almost every week. I've just reached a point where I don't feel like messing with all that shit anymore. So I'll wait. lol
So I broke down and just sideloaded it hahaha! It actually worked perfectly the very first time. I just followed this video.

Not getting it yet on my international 7 pro. Hopefully soon
Hasn't made it to my pixel 7 on Google Fi either (Ohio).
Downloading it now. Pixel 6 in Poland.
Be super keen if a bit more effort was put into "themed icons" where it uses a monochrome icon for each of the apps to force them to use your selected theme pallet. I've got no idea why there isn't an option on the app level to override the default icon so that every app, regardless of how stubborn the developers are will be consistent.
There were traces in the code about the forced solution I saw a couple of months ago in an article. Apparently it didn't make it into the final version which is a shame.
I side loaded it and it works great!
Just installed. Pixel 7a, Germany. It booted 😂
Thanks! Installing now, 6a in Europe.
It will take days or weeks for the rollout to complete. If you want it before then, you can download the OTAs and sideload them from here: https://developers.google.com/android/ota
Hasn't Android had a thing for a while where it gives update priority to people who manually check for updates? Like, my phone (7a) didn't say an update was available, but then I clicked the "Check for update" button, and now it said Android 14 is available.
So I don't think anyone who really wants the update soon needs to sideload the OTA, just check for an update and you'll probably get it.
I always do that. I think I only waited once, it notified me like 4 days later. But when I go into the settings and manually search for the update, it always gives me the update as soon as it's announced.
I always got updates on the day one. Is this american thing (because americans buy phones modified by their carrier)?
I got my phone unlocked directly from Google, but I think it might still get held back based on my network. I'm not sure what the current state of this is. Historically at least, yes, it's been a clusterfuck with US networks.

Anyone by chance have the build number for the stable version?
I'm going to assume I didn't get silently updated from the beta to stable (especially since it's only now getting late over here, and OTAs normally only auto-install for me around 2AM), but I'd like to check just to be sure.
UP1A.231005.007
Ah, thanks! I am definitely not on that build yet then, looks like I'll just wait for the OTA (or I suppose I could sideload it, but its not that big of a deal).
Live in Canada.
Updated successfully on a pixel 7 in Australia
got it in New Zealand 😎
Interesting how yours wasn't weirdly quoted, I already thought it looked a bit strange. I'm on Pixel 6.
Yeah, that's really weird, you'd think all builds for different devices went through the same build pipeline. I'm on 7a
Mine too is n quotes, also pixel 6
Pixel 6 pro, Vietnam
I've gone from the beta that I've been using since it came out, now to the beta QPR1 Beta 2
Haven't even seen the stable version. Probably should have opted out somewhere 🤣
Got it on Verizon P7P. Thanks for the heads up!
Downloaded and working in Pixel 7 PRO at Spain
Did they ever fix the issue that was breaking on the prior version?
I don't know the issue you are speaking about but I cannot see significant difference between Android 13 and 14
