- Google has temporarily disabled downloads of Android 15 Developer Preview 1.
- An issue with sideloading OTA images is causing a “Device is corrupted” message to appear.
- The company recommends that developers flash a factory image to test devices instead.
Last week, Google announced the rollout of Android 15 Developer Preview 1 (DP1). However, that initial rollout has been cut short as the tech giant has “temporarily disabled downloads.”
On the Android Developers website, Google announced that it is briefly halting downloads of Android 15 DP1. According to the Mountain View-based firm, the reason is linked to a known issue with sideloading OTA images. It appears that when sideloading the DP1 build, this sometimes triggers a “Device is corrupted” message after the download is completed.
