December 2019 Android Security Update Now Available for Pixel Devices (Updated)

The final Android update of the year is here!

Google has posted the December Android security patch for its Pixel phones. That includes images and OTA files for the Pixel and Pixel XL, which should be the last for the original Pixel phones. We seem to be missing updates for the Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL, though.

Currently, we are seeing new 10.0.0 files for Pixel 3a and Pixel 3a XL (QQ1A.191205.011), Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL (QQ1A.191205.008), and Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL (QQ1A.191205.008). Assuming Google doesn’t have a change of heart, the final Pixel and Pixel XL update will be build QP1A.191005.007.A3.

  • UPDATE: Below are the “notable” fixes for this month’s update. Also, Google says the Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL update is coming next week.  The builds for Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL are QQ1B.191205.011 (T-Mobile, Fi, EMEIA), QQ1C.191205.016.A1 (Japan & Taiwan), and QQ1B.191205.012.A1 (all other carriers).
  • UPDATE 12/10: The Pixel 4 and 4 XL factory image and OTA files are now live.

It’s not often that you get to merge personal passions into a professional life, but that’s what Kellen did when he launched Droid Life in 2009. After working years of unsatisfying jobs in the medical and property management fields, he took a risk to try and create an online community while playing with the coolest gadgets on the planet each day, a risk that has turned out to be incredibly rewarding. Outside of Droid Life, Kellen is your typical Portlander who drinks way too much good beer, complains often about the Trail Blazers, and can be found out on the streets for a run, rain or shine.
