Preview 3 out!
[Nexus 6  General] Mushroom.:
Did you even look at the thread before you posted?
[Nexus 6  General] bee mcfly:
So I just recently got my Nexus 6. And i want to run the Final m preview. The last Nexus phone I had was the Nexus s, back when previews weren't so common. If I flash the 3rd preview, when the final build is out will we get the OTA?
[Nexus 6  General] Othoric:
Has anyone saw the new wallpapers yet?
[Nexus 6  General] kava1:
Is there multi view?
[Nexus 6  General] Witek_M:
You will not. When final consumer release comes out this fall you will have to flash factory image.
[Nexus 6  General] TugBoatTed:
http://www.droid-life.com/2015/08/17/whats-new-in-android-6-0-marshmallow-developer-preview-3/

Easy way to get them!
[Nexus 6  General] bee mcfly:
That's a breeze. which is what i thought. thanks for the reply.
[Nexus 6  General] vboyz103:
Bootloader seems to have a UI makeover, Matrial Design-ish...
[Nexus 6  General] jeston:
Here is the no forceencrypt boot image for M Preview 3. This is not a flashable zip, extract the img file first.

Let me know if it's working ok for you guys!
[Nexus 6  General] kxhaz:
I went from preview 1 to 2 via the OTA and it took about 5 or 6 days. A lot will depended on how quick they allow the roll out of the OTA. It could be tomorrow or it could be a week. There was no trick to getting it sooner either it seemed. I tried rebooting and checking for the update and it just happened one morning while I was at work.
[Nexus 6  General] Jweimn:
So just to clarify as I think I know the answer but the only way to not wipe and flash the new build is to wait for the OTA?
[Nexus 6  General] GtrCraft:
Nope, flash preview image without userdata
[Nexus 6  General] SquireSCA:
Hmmm... It did not work for some reason, not sure why... I pushed it to the device with Wug's toolkit, did a hard factory wipe, device is still encrypted...

---------- Post added at 05:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:58 PM ----------

Battery life is horrible, dropping 1% ever 2-3 minutes as I install my apps, and the Suntrust banking app won't run under this preview either... Back to stock for me!
[Nexus 6  General] eep2378:
Release notes say there is GPS issues on LTE devices. Has anyone tried GPS yet on preview 3?

Sent from the Nodes of Ranvier
[Nexus 6  General] Jweimn:
Oh OK so when flashing the image just leave out user data and I'm set?
[Nexus 6  General] GtrCraft:
Exactly
[Nexus 6  General] uicnren:
anyone else notice that homesceen and google now screen rotation no longer work ?

apps still rotate however.
[Nexus 6  General] jeston:
Should work fine. Not sure about flashing it on top of an already encrypted boot or using Wug's, but it should work using fastboot when upgrading instead of flashing the encrypted boot. You did unzip the file first, right?
[Nexus 6  General] adambombz:
Wow I can notice a pretty significant decrease in viscosity in preview 3.
[Nexus 6  General] Fedway:
Almost buttery smooth? ;)
[Nexus 6  General] billydroid:
Preview runs great! I'm also using hellscore kernel, rooted and have busy box installed. This thing runs great.

Also this is what demo mode shows now.

So maybe it is Android 6 or maybe they are trolling us?
[Nexus 6  General] akellar:
It's already officially known that it's 6.0
[Nexus 6  General] Slick52:
I've been messing with the Antutu benchmark app for the last few weeks, and this Mv3 build plain stock has the highest score of any ROMs/kernals or builds I've tried, by about 2000points. Just saying...
[Nexus 6  General] the.emilio:
How did you get busybox installed? I was reading that users was having issues installing it.
[Nexus 6  General] billydroid:
Yes I realised I miss that somehow, I'm dumb.
[Nexus 6  General] aSquard:
I can't send any text messages at all using Google Messenger? APNs are setup correctly and everything. Anyone else having this issue? I'm on AT&T for the record
[Nexus 6  General] toledodj:
I can't believe Google got rid of the horizontal rotation in the home launcher with the final preview. That was a really good and useful feature.
[Nexus 6  General] KerryWood34:
Thought I posted this sooner:

Permissions check is working. What I mean is that an app will ask you to allow or deny permissions when if first attempts to do something. Example: I went to download something on Chrome and I received a prompt asking me to allow or deny chrome access to my music, videos, and files.
[Nexus 6  General] kenbrownstone:
Are they gonna bring back the mode were you can make the settings black instead of White..It was in preview 1 I believe..
[Nexus 6  General] kava1:
So far getting good battery life.
[Nexus 6  General] suku_patel_22:
Anyone with a MI Band here? Can you check if it works?
[Nexus 6  General] KerryWood34:
I will check right now.

Edit: Works just fine with the Mi Fit app. Paired and synced :)
[Nexus 6  General] rebel1699:
You can look that up on google and make it rotate with a build.prop edit.
[Nexus 6  General] Brotuck:
Looks like Bluetooth and battery issues are fixed in Preview 3.
[Nexus 6  General] dex2grigg:
Anyone checked out stagefreight dectector????
[Nexus 6  General] madphone:
Yes, fixed

[Nexus 6  General] Deeco7:
Does Waze now work with Preview3?
[Nexus 6  General] kellybrf:
only thing I've noticed is that I can't set reminders with Google Now. voice or manual, it keeps telling me can't reach google at the moment. anyone else experiencing this?
[Nexus 6  General] abogrhen:
download snapshat from other place like apkmirror

then it will work fine

then it will update and work normally from the playstore

looks like if you get the app from playstore there is a file missing for m
[Nexus 6  General] suku_patel_22:
What about smart unlock?

If it does, it's time to switch back to M..

I was back to Lollipop because smart unlock didn't work on M preview 2.
[Nexus 6  General] mindfever91:
You've got a reliable source for that? Because I don't know why it shouldn't be possible to take an OTA right to the final release.
[Nexus 6  General] Witek_M:
Here you go. In section "How to get update"

Anyone having problem sharing videos on WhatsApp from gallery?
[Nexus 6  General] dex2grigg:
Maybe
[Nexus 6  General] KerryWood34:
Can't get that to work but I don't use the smart unlock feature so not a deal breaker for me. You could always just use the on body detection smart unlock.
[Nexus 6  General] geekabilly:
I'd like to know, too -
[Nexus 6  General] imfloflo:
FYI : Smart unlock working great on preview 1, 2 & 3 with the original Pebble and with my Car Bluetooth.
[Nexus 6  General] wavedashdoc:
Any other users having success using the GPS with LTE turned off? I'm hesitant to flash because of this vague issue.
[Nexus 6  General] kenlester:
Can anyone help me get back a voice search icon or widget? I've switched to the latest M and no longer have the icon or widgets for voice search. I'm not a fan of saying "OK Google, blah blah...". I really like having a one touch icon on my homescreen. Thanks
[Nexus 6  General] jlvlawrence:
Has anyone experienced any GPS issues? I've read that there may be some on LTE devices.
[Nexus 6  General] Luxferro:
I'm loving M3 compared to M2. Bluetooth fixed. Battery life fixed. Missing lock screen notification for some games/apps fixed. There's probably more things fixed than that, but those were the ones most annoying to me.
[Nexus 6  General] cundiffr:
That doesn't work for me, which version of the app are you downloading?

Many thanks
[Nexus 6  General] xdatastic:
WiFi seems broken for me with Preview 3 (fresh install from images). Connects for a few moments then disconnects with 'Connection error' or Authentication error'.

I'll have a look at logcat later to see why.
[Nexus 6  General] teinwhite:
Tapping the mic icon in the search bar opens voice search.
[Nexus 6  General] kenlester:
yes it does, but i cant reach it with my thumb, lol.
[Nexus 6  General] teinwhite:
Haha.. So true. Need to have a thumb extension grafted on I guess. And by thumb extension I mean a brown and serve sausage. :)

[Nexus 6  General] aSquard:
I had to cycle Airplane mode to get my signal to work correctly.
[Nexus 6  General] StrizzMatik:
Thanks bro! Worked like a charm!
[Nexus 6  General] Smallsmx3:
So far preview 3 is giving me the best battery and performance. I hope that it's reporting correctly
[Nexus 6  General] NishantM:
Sometimes when I pull down the notification drawer, it comes down with a slow motion rather than coming down quickly. This happens randomly, and mostly happens when there are no notifications. Is this a bug or known issue?
[Nexus 6  General] dave6018:
Anybody else having Google now issues ? Not responding when screen off
[Nexus 6  General] kellybrf:
I didn't notice this yesterday, but I'm having this issue at work today. I have to connect to a guest network which usually I can do once in the morning and be fine all day, but today it drops connection after a few minutes and won't necessarily find the network again for a while. when it does I have to sign in again and the cycle repeats.
[Nexus 6  General] pmikec:
I'm on Sprint and I have had no issue with LTE data while using navigation. I drove across the city today just fine.

Anyone that has T-Mobile have any idea what the IMS APN is for?
[Nexus 6  General] teinwhite:
I believe that's related to wi-fi calling. Odd that's it basically empty though.
[Nexus 6  General] Smallsmx3:
That's what I was thinking, I have been using it for a bit and everything still works. Just wondering if it is something more. Its not needed for the LP builds with WiFi calling

I can't remember but did preview 1 or 2 have simultaneous voice and data on Verizon? I know lollipop does and preview 3 does not. Just not sure if it's a bug at this point or intended.
[Nexus 6  General] BladeRunner:
I had simultaneous on p2. Have tried disabling the reenabling it on your vzw account?

Snapchat working fine here
[Nexus 6  General] jeston:
Are you using Nova launcher? Because I have narrowed that problem down to the option Gestures & Input -> Swipe down -> Expand notifications

If you swipe down from the notification bar you'll get normal behavior. If you miss the top of the screen and swipe down from anywhere else, you'll get the slow behavior. Seems like a compatibility issue with Nova.

This doesn't happen using Google launcher.
[Nexus 6  General] Fedway:
Waze has been working fine since Preview 2. I have not had any problems at all with Waze on Preview 3.

I'm on Fi and P3 seems to work fine. I've made 2 calls and received 1 call since loading P3 at lunch time, all on WiFi.
[Nexus 6  General] holeindalip:
To whomever was asking about the GPS and lte, I tried it out today and on lte with high precision wouldn't show my correct location , switched to 3g and everything was kosher!!
[Nexus 6  General] whelmar:
Google Voice as Voicemail

I just flashed the M3 preview. Previously was on the latest 5.1.1 I have been using AT&T s visual voicemail. Not really a fan of the application, but it works. I did a fresh install of the preview, let it install my apps. When I went to set up Visual voicemail, it told me that my plan didn't support it. (I did just up my plan from 10gb to 15gb shared...) Thinking it strange, I pulled my sim out, put it in my one plus, and it worked as expected. Back into the Nexus 6, no workie... So, on a whim, I installed google voice, thinking that I would call AT&T and go through the 'set up my call fowarding to this number' call... I didn't have to... AT&T used to have this locked out...but I was able to set this from my phone without calling anyone. Now voicemail is integrated in the dialer...I haven't done this since I had an S3... Very pleased...
[Nexus 6  General] yellowman82:
Latest preview 3 is wow amazing. Coming from lollipop I flashed the bootloader and baseband for M first rebooted back into recovery and flashed the Preview 3 with blu kernel, latest su zip then did a format data booted up fine install busy box and everything is working well so far very battery friendly I'm digging this preview.
[Nexus 6  General] billycar11:
yes it works fine
[Nexus 6  General] kenbrownstone:
How do I enable?
[Nexus 6  General] ak47nerd:
I have the Preview 3 flashed with build number MPA44G (Both N5 and N6). I just checked the developer's download site, and there's a build number MPA44I. Did anyone else notice this?
[Nexus 6  General] metaphz:
Good catch, was just about to flash my N6 and have downloaded MPA44G last night for my N6, N9, and Nexus Player. N9 did get flashed last night and showing MPA44G.
[Nexus 6  General] NotATreoFan:
Google Messenger is also working for me, so I presume they addressed the current reported issues.

Can someone please give links that work for the kernel we need for rooting preview 3 M build. I'm having issues finding what I need to root. So if someone could please give me an explanation on how and where to find these links for the kernel and so fourth. Thank you. Very frustrating.
[Nexus 6  General] natemup:
Apparently Google updated something small concerning Android for Work within the P3 build.
[Nexus 6  General] craig.buckie:
Maybe too early to tell, but first preview without random reboots and with good battery life and accurate reporting. At least I hope it is both, preview 2 would go down 5% in a couple minutes, clueless to whether that was battery life or just poor reporting, regardless, now looking forward to Marshmallow's release because preview 3 is looking good.
[Nexus 6  General] phukao:
dose LINE messenger working on preview 3?

Have anyone try?
[Nexus 6  General] Red.Man:
Anyone got the OTA update? Can't wait for it..
[Nexus 6  General] SamDH1:
Has anyone got these mysterious drops in P3? I turned off Ambient Display because I had the same reaction the day/night before.

The phone was not used the whole time, only about 20 minutes at the start, and in that time dropped too 97%, then I left it till just now, and now I am on 75%. Odd, right? I haven't seen my battery like this on the M previews so far.
[Nexus 6  General] Slick52:
I'm downloading the 44L build now, but has anyone had issues with Hangouts and SMS? Messages seem to disappear from the conversation right after being sent, but are sent. Then I deleted the conversation and the next time I sent SMS to that contact it brought back half of the previous conversation. It's really weird. When I delete a conversation, it needs to stay deleted!, if you know what I mean.... ; )
[Nexus 6  General] teinwhite:
I received a text from t-mobile about my bill and when I went to view it, it wasn't there. So far that's the only quirk I've noticed. I don't do a lot of texting though.

---------- Post added at 02:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:19 PM ----------

On another note:

perhaps I'm being dumb, adb reports device is unauthorized and I'm not seeing the usual message to authorize it. I have to manually put the phone into bootloader so I can adb push. Can't do it while phone is running.

Nothing in developer mode to revoke anything either. I'm on latest 44I release.
[Nexus 6  General] NotATreoFan:
I went straight to the I build and skipped G, thanks to it being released 5 minutes before the planned flash. Set everything up clean and haven't had any major issues. Messaging is working as is T-Mobile WiFi Calling, better than on L.
[Nexus 6  General] draiko913:
Has anyone else been running into the issue when scrolling through long lists, the screen gets out of sync? It basically splits straight down the middle in portrait mode and the right left sides no longer match up to each other. That's been happening to me on all three previews. Seems like it mainly happens when I'm scrolling in apps like Chrome, Falcon Pro, Instagram, 9Gag, etc. But sometimes it happens when pulling down the notification shade or inside of Settings. I can recover fairly quick by turning the screen off and back on. But it was happening every minute or two after I installed preview 3, so I flashed back to 5.1.1. Anyone know of a fix?
[Nexus 6  General] outz:
didn't see it posted so I edited it myself. boot.img for MPA44I that doesn't force encryption.
[Nexus 6  General] SquireSCA:
Mine was doing that as well. Dropping 1% every 2-3 minutes... Between that, a couple app FC's and the GPS not always working, I can't use this as a daily driver. Having working code, is more important than having the latest code... Sure, it's fun to show off to your friends, but if their lollipop phones actually work better than my Marshmallow phone, it sorta takes the fun out of it... LOL

---------- Post added at 10:31 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:30 AM ----------

When you delete them, they go to the "archived" folder in Messenger. From the main screen, go to the 3 dot menu icon in the upper right corner, and select archived, and they will be there. If you delete them from there, then they are gone for good. :)
[Nexus 6  General] Smallsmx3:
Other than GPS its been pretty solid for me. I've had one app FC. Battery life hasn't been better for me. It's been so good that I've been waiting for it to start going bonkers. Did you flash the factory image? If not I would suggest it just to start with a clean slate. So far marshmallow is shaping up to be an amazing update.
[Nexus 6  General] SquireSCA:
I did a complete clean install and wipe, stock kernel, didn't root or mess with it at all.

Battery life was worse, so that's a problem. Seems to be hit or miss. Some say better, others like me report much worse. My banking app that I use daily doesn't run on M at all. And if GPS isn't working right, that's a deal breaker for me as well. I use it a lot, and switching to 3G, which is about the same as dial-up speed, just doesn't work for me either, unfortunately.

Sucks, I want to use it, but those are 3 significant sacrifices I would have to make, just to be able to brag about being on M before most of my friends. haha
[Nexus 6  General] SamDH1:
I just reinstalled Marshmallow but with the I build, the camera isn't freaking out anymore with it's background usage, and I'm not dropping a percentage every minute or so like I was before. This is the first time I had the battery problem, M has been awesome so far for battery on the other previews, but a third re-installation seems to have fixed it on this build, now all happy again :]
[Nexus 6  General] NotATreoFan:
Has anyone attempted or had success with V4A on Preview 3? I'm running the kernel from buckmarble, and I don't get Abnormal status, so I know the permissions at the kernel level are correct. But I cannot get the processing to activate.
[Nexus 6  General] SquireSCA:
How is GPS working on the latest build for you?

I know it is a preview build, but how can something so needed and common like GPS slip through the cracks?
[Nexus 6  General] SamDH1:
Seems okay so far, on high accuracy like I normally am and I am getting the usual battery performance.

Yeah it would be very odd, have you tried the new build from yesterday??
[Nexus 6  General] SquireSCA:
I have not, but maybe I will after my conf call...
[Nexus 6  General] adambombz:
It also shows camera on time in the detailed battery life graph.
[Nexus 6  General] Smallsmx3:
GPS is borked while on lte, it will show your location but not move. If you exit and reenter maps it will find your location but not move. Switching to 3g supposedly fixes the issue. The JDX ROM in Android development supposedly fixes this issue. So maybe give that a go. Or look into the thread
[Nexus 6  General] SquireSCA:
How does that slip through, I wonder?

I can see certain apps that have not updated their code not working, and Google cannot be expected to flush them all out...

But to not have properly working GPS? That's kind of a big "woops!", is it not?
[Nexus 6  General] adambombz:
The scrolling bar in the app drawer does some cool stuff now.
[Nexus 6  General] jbresee:
Can't flash preview 3..

This is puzzling:

bootloader and radio appear to flash successfully, but the rom fails with the following error:

error: failed to load 'image-shamu-MPA44I.zip': not enough space.

There is plenty of space, so the error is probably confused. Any idea?
[Nexus 6  General] Smallsmx3:
For a preview? I don't think so. There could be a bunch of reasons why its not working. But I'm sure there's a level of functionality that was needed for this final preview and it was met. So no need to test everything. It would be awful if something like this happened on the official release
[Nexus 6  General] githyanki:
Are you trying to flash the zip in TWRP? If so, thats not how the google images are done. Use adb, fastboot, and bootloader method.

Directions here: http://xdaforums.com/nexus-6/general/how-to-nexus-6-one-beginners-guide-t2948481
[Nexus 6  General] jbresee:
Thanks for the reply. I am not flashing from TWRP, I am using the flash-all.bat script (which is a chain of fastboot commands) that comes with preview 3 package.
[Nexus 6  General] ptesmoke:
hardware defect. I had it on my launch N6, had to rma.
[Nexus 6  General] buzzwyzr:
Flashall.bat script hasn't worked since the first LOLLIPOP image was posted. You've gotta flash them individually
[Nexus 6  General] githyanki:
OK, try the extended set of commands in the link I gave. The flash-all.bat file doesn't always work, and will overwrite your internal storage, and recovery anyways.
[Nexus 6  General] abogrhen:
the flash all bat don't work

flash them all one by one

unzip the file

you will find 5 img file inside

flash the system and the boot img (and the user data if you want to format ) leave the recovery and the cache

now you have preview 3 working

you can use nrt tool to help you flash
[Nexus 6  General] bobprobert:
i used flash all bat yesterday and it worked perfectly
[Nexus 6  General] SquireSCA:
So it is confirmed, that GPS is borked unless you are on 3G?
