Anyone received the MMB29X OTA for N6? I am on MMB29V (using XT1103 in Asia) still waiting for the April security update.
[Nexus 6  General] xdatastic:
Some people have. The sideloadable URL is

https://android.googleapis.com/pack...91036512.signed-shamu-MMB29X-from-MMB29V2.zip

Some have gone direct to MOB30D instead which is likely a better place to be.

[Nexus 6  General] MiquelFire:

[Nexus 6  General] echz:
Same. Curious to see if this actually comes about, or what the upgrade path is going to be come May's update. Hopefully I won't have to flash an img to my N6 as I don't feel like having to reinstall and backup everything!
[Nexus 6  General] stangri:
Unless you're bootloader locked you don't have to backup/reinstall everything if you dirty-flash. So far I dirty-flashed all 6.0.1 images without issues.
[Nexus 6  General] muppetmania:
I can't believe how hard this is to understand for people.

This is a thread ABOUT OTAs. Most of us want an OTA because, surprise surprise, we haven't unlocked our bootloaders. Yes, I know you're just incredulous about that fact, gosh it's so easy it's the first-thing-you-do-with-a-new-phone etc etc. Some of us have the security implications of it to take into account, however.

That's why we can't dirty flash. To flash an image, we have to unlock the bootloader. Which wipes the device.

It's an OTA thread. People want OTAs because they're not in a position to flash images. It still surprises me how hard this is to comprehend for a large number of people.
[Nexus 6  General] stangri:
Don't get your panties in a bunch. Read what I replied to. It was a specific reply for a specific user (who was about ready to flash an image).
[Nexus 6  General] muppetmania:
...and who accepted the fact he had to unlock his bootloader, losing all his data. Thus his comment "as I don't feel like having to reinstall and backup everything!"

And then you piped up with your ever-so-unhelpful comment about how you don't lose anything when you dirty flash.

What do you need to dirty-flash?

*DING DING DING*

An unlocked bootloader.

I am sick of people offering incorrect information in this thread. I don't care if it's being offered to one user or one hundred users. Wrong information is wrong, and annoying.
[Nexus 6  General] stangri:
*If* (and that's a big if, considering the talk of the backup, even tho weird backup solutions exist for non-rooted phones) their phone is bootloader locked, there's a polite way of saying what you said without the trolling. You need to cut out personal attacks based purely on your unsubstantiated conjectures. Or just chill, world is imperfect, you can't unlock your bootloader -- deal with it, don't hate those who can.

[Nexus 6  General] iluvatrix:
Is there an emerging pattern that sheds some light on why some get branched out to Mob & some to Mmb after Mmb 29x?
[Nexus 6  General] muppetmania:
The MOB branch contains a new radio.

Apparently some carriers don't want this so the MMB branch is being kept alive.

I have no actual source for this however, it's what I've read but seen no hard facts to back it up.
[Nexus 6  General] iluvatrix:
So how did it branch from mmb29x? Was it based on the carrier sim that was inserted in the phone?
[Nexus 6  General] xdatastic:
Full OTAs for all Nexus devices:

https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/ota#shamu-for-nexus-6-mobile

I presume they don't wipe the device so should be easy to switch between builds with a locked bootloader. They are full OTAs so doesnt matter what build you are currently on. Enjoy :)

Edit: [MENTION=4653800]muppetmania[/MENTION] yes, OTAs are now officially published as of today. Note they are approx 1GB in size as they are full OTAs.
[Nexus 6  General] muppetmania:
I don't know how Google decides what OTA to push

But there was MMB29V and from it there were two patches.

There was an OTA for MMB29V->MOB30D

and an OTA for MMB29V->MMB29X

That was the "branch point" - but how Google decided what OTA you got pushed, I don't know.

---------- Post added at 11:23 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:17 AM ----------

Holy flipping sh*t!

AMAZING.

I replied to your post originally saying "Nope those are factory images" but holy cow pat, they're not.

Thank you.
[Nexus 6  General] xdatastic:
I'm as surprised as you. :)

I haven't checked yet if there are any restrictions in the OTA script to prevent going back to older builds. Hopefully not. I'll update here once I've checked them out.

---------- Post added at 10:04 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:31 AM ----------

So, the older builds cannot be flashed over the newer builds with these new full OTAs. If you try to flash MMB29X over MOB30I it will fail as it does a build date check first.

Restriction in MMB29X:

abort("Can't install this package (Tue Mar 22 22:51:14 UTC 2016) over newer build (" + getprop("ro.build.date") + ").");

Restriction in MOB30I:

abort("Can't install this package (Tue Apr 12 01:21:31 UTC 2016) over newer build (" + getprop("ro.build.date") + ").");

One can only sideload forward, not back.
[Nexus 6  General] muppetmania:
Yea, that doesn't surprise me.

BUT I just flashed from MMB29X to MOB30I

It's currently "Upgrading..." but it appears to have worked perfectly.

[Nexus 6  General] muppetmania:

[Nexus 6  General] pcrussell50:
I'm systemless rooted, though I have added a line to the build.prop and running AdAway, which (i think) uses something on the system folder. I get the notifications for OTA, but every time i actually try, it fails.

I have tried flashing my system folder only, back to stock, but it still does not take OTA, sooo... If i want the latest build i download it, flash it (which returns me to stock), then re-root and re-enable adaway in the build.prop edit. not as convenient as a working OTA, but it does work.

-Peter
[Nexus 6  General] muppetmania:
As soon as you edit your /system, you make it so that an OTA can't work. build.prop is on system. Even if you undo the changes, the timestamp on the file changes and you can't do anything OTA related.

You can, however, flash the "full OTA's" that Google have just released (see a few posts up). Those don't check the contents of the /system partition, they just flash over it.
[Nexus 6  General] pcrussell50:
Good to know about the timestamp... I never knew. So, if I have systemless root, and I flash an OTA, will I keep root? I realize i'd have to re-edit the build.prop and re-enable adaways' access to the system folder....

Google Play Nexus 6 OTA

Has anyone with a Google Pay store Nexus 6 received the OTA 5.1 update?

Am I understanding this correctly that carrier backed Nexus 6 versions are receiving the OTA update before the unbranded Google Play/Moto direct Nexus 6s ?
[Nexus 6  General] oldblue910:
In the interest of completeness, I went and found the LRX21O > LMY47D update and put the link in the first post.
[Nexus 6  General] dodgebizkit:
Still no way to go from D to E, M,I or whatever newer builds are available?

-----------------------<SiG>-------------------

My house phone is better than your iPhone.
[Nexus 6  General] :
Factory image.
[Nexus 6  General] oldblue910:
For whatever it's worth, AT&T announced the 5.1 update today, so if your Nexus 6 has an AT&T SIM, you'll be getting LMY47D, just like Sprint (and non-US phones). Oddly, AT&T's announcement includes "Voice over LTE" in the changelog, even though LMY47D doesn't support VoLTE on AT&T. According to Google, VoLTE support is for T-Mobile and Verizon only.

https://www.att.com/esupport/article.jsp?sid=KB425950&cv=820
[Nexus 6  General] HankStorm:
Before I try the pull SIM trick to try to get the OTA, wanted to make sure that VoLTE still works for you guys on Verizon with the D build. Assuming you are still on D of course. I'm imagining it does but am being paranoid about updating and it not working which really makes no sense since I am still on 5.0.1 with no VoLTE anyway. I couldn't make the situation worse. Ha!
[Nexus 6  General] :
VoLTE was enabled in all 5.1 builds AFAIK, for the carriers that support it. If you do the Sim pull trick, after you install the OTA put your Sim back in and reboot. Then, in settings>more>cellular networks>carrier settings you should have the option to enable enhanced calling mode.
[Nexus 6  General] PR0707YP3:
Guyss one question. I am currently on LMY47D and i want to upgrade to LMY47I by sideloading. Can i flash the LMY47I ota over my current build ? Will there be any problem ?
[Nexus 6  General] oldblue910:
You won't be able to do that because there is no LMY47D > LMY47I OTA file. You would either have to flash the factory image, or downgrade to 5.0.1 and apply the LRX22C > LMY47I OTA file. Either one requires your bootloader to be unlocked.
[Nexus 6  General] dodgebizkit:
No OTAs to 5.1.1 yet? :(

[Nexus 6  General] shamelin73:
I am confused by the different builds. What would I need to buy for Fi?

I want to order from Moto but can also order from the Play store..... what would be the best option?

What model will I get?
[Nexus 6  General] oldblue910:
Any US Nexus 6 purchased from anywhere will work with Fi. The only Nexus 6 that might not is the one purchased from AT&T because it's SIM locked. You'd have to SIM unlock it first by either getting the unlock code from AT&T or paying a 3rd party website for the code.
[Nexus 6  General] imablackhat:
So E is the latest Verizon build ? What's H compared go any of these
[Nexus 6  General] oldblue910:
There is no H build, or at least not officially. Only D, E, I, and M.
[Nexus 6  General] oldblue910:
OK, it appears (if T-Mobile is correct) that the 5.1.1 OTA could start rolling out between today and Tuesday. So, keep an eye out. Remember, in this particular case, there will be four OTAs, as there are Nexus 6s in the world right now with four different 5.1 builds. So, I'll need the following OTAs:

LMY47D -> LMY48B (This will probably be the first one that will be found, since the vast majority of the world is on this build)

LMY47E -> LMY48B (This will probably be the last one to be found since only devices sold by Verizon are running this build)

LMY47I -> LMY48B (There will likely be a delay on this one since it appears to have only rolled out to select carriers in Australia, New Zealand, and India)

LMY47M -> LMY48B (This will probably be found right away since this is the build that T-Mobile USA customers are on)

So, if anyone gets any of these OTAs, please post the links here before you update. Thank you!
[Nexus 6  General] HankStorm:
Should be 5.1 builds above rather than 5.0.1.

---------- Post added at 08:46 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:44 AM ----------

Wouldn't it be funny if Verizon was fastest with the updates going forward? :p
[Nexus 6  General] dodgebizkit:
In looking forward to 5.1.1 OTA... There are still a few niggling little bugs that 5.1 didn't squash... Not many though, but an update is always nice.

Any word on whether it's likely to improve encrypted device speeds? (It's fast now on 5.1 but could still be faster).

[Nexus 6  General] rub1k:
I assume builds starting with "MOB" (MOB30I for May and MOB30M for June) go "together" as do "MMB" (MMB30G for May and MMB30J for June) builds.

I'm sticking with the MOB builds when I flash from factory images these days...
[Nexus 6  General] stevenchen:
Didn't notice is MMB,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
[Nexus 6  General] muppetmania:
MOB is later and contains a new radio than the MMB builds.

MOB has an improved kernel with a higher "tick rate" which gives a slight, but noticeable, performance improvement.

If you have the choice, flash MOB! MMB is just for the carriers that don't want to update the radio.

[https://developer](timeline ommitted, but shows N DP5 in mid July)

At key development milestones, we’ll deliver updates for your development and testing environment. In general you can expect an update each month (4 to 6 week interval). The milestones are listed below.

Preview 1*(initial release, alpha)

Preview 2*(incremental update, alpha)

Preview 3*(incremental update, beta)

Preview 4*(final APIs and official SDK, Play publishing)

Preview 5*(near-final system images for final testing)
