Apparently, there is a tool kit that has a repackaged version of M, that reportedly will allow users to flash from any other version of 5.1 to M. :rolleyes:

---------- Post added at 07:49 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:44 AM ----------

One more clarification, just in case.

Are you sure that you were past the "Main" recovery screen (Android on his back with Red !), and into the sub menu, having selected "sideload via ADB", when you unplugged and replugged in your USB?
[Nexus 6  General] justin24:
Correct I was at that screen and unplugged and replugged. Where can I find that kit or would it be easier to flash back to 5.0.1 then flash the M file.
[Nexus 6  General] cam30era:
I can't recommend it, because I don't use tool kits. But if you look in the Android Development section, you will find it. If you decide to flash back to 5.0.1, don't downgrade the bootloader. You could risk a brick when you reflash a 5.1 bootloader.

From what I've read, LMY47I appears to have the items from M, and reportedly works well for some TMO users. Have you considered that?
[Nexus 6  General] Scotty1:
Wugfresh's Nexus Root Toolkit. I used it on Monday to go directly from D to M (no need to go back to 5.0.1). Worked fine for me. Running M for 48 hours, stable, VoLTE, very low battery drain. No wifi calling (obviously - not yet available).
[Nexus 6  General] justin24:
I know the non ota file for "I" is available. Can I use wugfresh to flash that file? Sorry for the all the questions. I haven't rooted or done this in a while, so a little rusty.
[Nexus 6  General] rockinroyle:
This is true. Been on I since released on tmo n6 and its perfectly fine. Just checked and 611 works although I'm now on aicp ROM based on lmy47i not stock.
[Nexus 6  General] Lucke:
so i'm on D, and i'm kind of confused why i haven't seen the notification of an update to M. is it because i'm on D already?

stock, rooted...
[Nexus 6  General] jcsww:
Yes! There is no update from D to M. From 5.0.1, you needed to either wait for the update to M to arrive OTA, flash or sideload an upgrade to M from 5.0.1, or flash one of the M ROM's from around here.
[Nexus 6  General] Lucke:
that's what i thought, still curious as to why there's no system image for it... oh well. thanks.
[Nexus 6  General] cam30era:
You can't take an OTA if you're already on 5.1.
[Nexus 6  General] jay661972:
Same here not sure why no image for M but i decided to flash back the 5.0.1 all img including the userdata, when its done there you go received 5.1 ota update.

But before that, need to wait to transfer 3 gb of files from my phone to PC, worthed
[Nexus 6  General] dkotoric:
So do we know what the difference is between the "I" build that's on Google's site as the latest available and this "M" build.
[Nexus 6  General] cam30era:
You don't want to be down grading your bootloader, back to 5.0.1, then taking the OTA back to 5.1. All other .img files are OK to do, but really the OTA only checks system.img and boot.img.
[Nexus 6  General] Lucke:
hmm, so you're saying that i can dirty flash the boot and system images and then update via the OTA?
[Nexus 6  General] cam30era:
That's my understanding, from [MENTION=2872010]rootSU[/MENTION]. I've not tried it, but he knows what he's talking about. OTA package only checks boot.img and system.img. Of course you'll need stock recovery.img to sideload the OTA.
[Nexus 6  General] SwissAndroidX:
Is VoLTE working for you guys?
[Nexus 6  General] BigDig:
Yes it is....
[Nexus 6  General] SwissAndroidX:
In a few weeks I'm going to the usa and I bought a T-Mobile SIM. Do you think it's also possible for me to make VoLTE calls? I have the international N6 XT1100 with the SW version LMY47D.
[Nexus 6  General] cam30era:
Your XT1100 does not have the radio to connect to US carrier LTE bands. You will be able to connect to GSM (and CDMA) and 3G, but that's it.
[Nexus 6  General] gee2012:
The OTA is usualy stored in cache but you need to be rooted to access/copy it afaik. The image will be posted soon anyway.

You may try this (taken from reddit):

How to pull the OTA link:

1) Enable Developer Tools in settings by going to About Phone and clicking on the build number 7 times repeatedly until it says "You are now a developer!"

2) Go into Settings > Developer tools and enable it in the top right.

3) Turn on USB Debugging

4) The first option at the top of the list is "Take bug report". Click it

5) After a few minutes, the phone will populate a bug report and ask you if you want to share it. Send it to yourself as an email.

6) Open the TXT file that comes in the email and do CTRL(Command) + F to find the word "android.clients". There should be a long link that represents the OTA zip file.

That TXT file will stay in /data/bugreports in case you don't want to sent it using email.

The /cache method to find the OTA filename doesn't work anymore because newer android version auto renames the file to update.zip. If you are rooted you can also get the OTA name using a terminal emulator and running these two commands:

su

T-Mobile gave a good explanation of what they (carriers) do to to the OS; I don't have the link. Google changed the way Android interfaces with the sim, network and phone. In the past the carriers did something outside the OS to tweak performance for their network; now, it is done in the OS with 5.1. So, while any OS will work on any phone, the carrier specific OS will work "slightly" better in terms of signal strength and network performance. I believe the carrier has a limited amount of time to make these changes before Google pushes the generic upload.

Seems to be a reasonable explanation to what we're seeing now. I remember reading an article a while ago describing this change being implemented, long before 5.1 was being delivered. I picked up the link in one of the threads in this forum if your interested enough to search.

Band 12 and update question

I updated my phone to the D version. Did this unlock band 12? If I switch to ATT for cell phone service will I stop getting updates because I'm on the D version. This doesn't make sense as many people switch carriers and with all these different variants it seems like updates would stop happening if you switched carriers.

I always thought a nexus was a nexus and they all ran the same software.

Any insight would be appreciated.
[Nexus 6  General] YankInDaSouth:

Really hoping we can get the LMY47M OTA captured today. Ever since Upgrading to the new 5.1 bootloader, radio and LMY47E my signal on T-Mobile has been absolutely terrible. Dropping calls and signal all over the place where I previously had full LTE signal. I'm really hoping the LMY47M build fixes that or I'll have to go back to 5.0.1 and the old radio.

The updates are rolled out in batches. It may be available for your phone before the phone checks for it.

If it is available, and your phone hasn't checked since it was available, using that button will make it download. If it's not available yet, it does nothing.

Example. If your phone checks for an update automatically at 10, and Google doesn't "add you to the list" until 10:30, you won't see it automatically until your phone checks again in an hour or two (or however often the automatic frequency is). But if the update is posted at 10:30, and you click the button at 10:31, you would receive the update.

Not entirely useless.
