I haven't been on final N yet, so I don't really know. From what I've read, they should be pretty much identical.
[Nexus 6  General] cell2011:
Yea i never started with 1st preview as i just got a used N6 and put final N on it from wug fresh toolkit. That probably why i dont get an update yet cause i started with final build even know it says enrolled beta program
[Nexus 6  General] AarSyl:
I experienced it myself in DP4, and that was fixed in DP5.
[Nexus 6  General] teinwhite:
I still get duplicate Bluetooth icons from time to time. It's rare but it does happen. I'm on DP5.
[Nexus 6  General] Teyshablue:
Just picked up my 6 from amazon. It's running 5.1, lol. Do I need to load 6.0 prior to N?
[Nexus 6  General] AarSyl:
Same with me, but I'm signed into multiple Gmail accounts in Chrome, so I simply switched to another, and I was able to sign up.
[Nexus 6  General] slothdabski:
Not if you use the factory image when it becomes available. But for ota's, yes you need 6 first
[Nexus 6  General] Teyshablue:
Thanks! Guess I'll flash the factory image when it becomes available, unless my phone updates to 6.0 before then.
[Nexus 6  General] SciFiSurfer:
When I bought mine, it came that way as well. Of course, this was well before any form of N was available outside of Google. That phone has amazing battery life, and actually the ONLY issue I've ever had with it, which is evidently endemic to the Nexus 6, is if your volumes are set too high, you will get this weird glitchy sound with notification sounds. All you have to do is just back off the max volume a touch, and it's good.

I'm rocking the NPD90G Developer Preview, and it's been pretty solid. The only issues I have had are that sometimes video will go out of sync with audio when watching streaming video (on web pages or in YouTube). I've reported it through the device itself.

Love love love the new notification display, and the split-screen is actually pretty cool for certain things.

BTW... not available yet, and no OTA update has shown up, either.
[Nexus 6  General] cell2011:
Do I need unlocked or locked BL you get update when it drops? I'm not rooted or recovery but I am unlocked
[Nexus 6  General] H4X0R46:
Thanks for the informational post! Always good to have insight! [emoji2]
[Nexus 6  General] alryder:
If you go with the OTA it doesn't matter if the bootloader is locked or unlocked, if you download and flash the image the bootloader will need to be unlocked.
[Nexus 6  General] holeindalip:
Does not matter
[Nexus 6  General] cell2011:
I'm unlocked on DP5? Will I still get OTA?
[Nexus 6  General] H4X0R46:
As far as I know, you should get it. Google updates their devices even when the bootloader is unlocked, and being on the beta should let you just update to the final build when it becomes available! :D
[Nexus 6  General] wabmorgan:
To my knowledge... It depends on how you installed the preview.

If you installed as an OTA, you will get an OTA for the final.

However, if you installed via a zip install via TWRP, you won't get an OTA.
[Nexus 6  General] PhillyFlyer:
Are you sure that's entirely accurate? I don't think it matters how you got on the preview, if you have it you will be prompted with an OTA for final. That's just my experience.
[Nexus 6  General] holeindalip:
If you just flashed the factory image then no you will not be updated, if you joined the beta then you will be updated
[Nexus 6  General] Binge:
I'm going to wait until Chroma or Pure Nexus use the AOSP in their next releases, so probably have a few days! But it'll be worth it!
[Nexus 6  General] wabmorgan:
As I said...to my knowledge. That being said, that's what happened with the previews. They would not updated if installed via zip in TWRP.
[Nexus 6  General] JNewms:
100% You only get the OTA to final N if you enrolled in the beta and took the OTA to the dev preview.
[Nexus 6  General] sashank:
The OTA you got was for NPD50G, or N Developer Preview 5. Not for the final Nougat build, because it isn't out yet for Nexus 6. Whenever it's out, you'll receive a patch OTA to upgrade to it from DP5.
[Nexus 6  General] alex482:
hi guys im waiting for Turron too XD

PD: turron is Nougat in spanish XD
[Nexus 6  General] TMG1961:
Wednesday morning 8am and still no factory image for the N6. Now me being very sad :( Not a good start of a beautiful day
[Nexus 6  General] bigchrizzieboy:
My finger hurts

EDIT: I cannot belive this "usefull" post brings me over the 100 thanks :p

.

.
[Nexus 6  General] TMG1961:
Some say that there have been problems with the baseband. But why is then that the 6p and 5x did get the OTA and the pixel c, nexus player and nexus 9 (wifi) got the factory images online? Is ther a baseband problem? If so why didnt they fix it before releasing OTA and factory images? Was the baseband good in the last preview or was there also a problem with it? Just trying to figure out why there still isnt a OTA or factory iage for the Nexus 6
[Nexus 6  General] NOSTALGIA:
it will come if it will come.. lets all be patient.. factory images for 5x and 6p hasn't even been posted yet
[Nexus 6  General] bigchrizzieboy:
Yes they are posted: see this page (which i'm also refreshing much): http://www.androidpolice.com/2016/0...gs-full-android-7-0-nougat-nexus-ota-roundup/
[Nexus 6  General] TMG1961:
Not going to check again before 7pm (9.46am here now) my time, by then its 10am at the google office and the start of a new working day. Maybe good idea for google to start introducing night shifts :D
[Nexus 6  General] TAGTRAUM:
As you can see on androidpolice, still no system images on devices with cellular part (Nexus 9 LTE, Nexus 6, General Mobile 4G), maybe some Google fail with radio?:eek:
[Nexus 6  General] xdatastic:
Nexus 9 LTE OTA is available (just not mentioned on AP yet)
[Nexus 6  General] H4X0R46:
That's what I'm thinking. And as anxious as we all are, I'll be happy knowing their fixing it and the final build will be rock solid! I'll say this, Marshmallow on my Nexus 6 has always acted dumb with my Comcast Wi-Fi...... I installed preview 5 and BAM! Problem gone! More than anything, I'm excited to have a fully working build again and hopefully some amazing battery life with the new doze! :D
[Nexus 6  General] H4X0R46:
And I gave you another thanks haha because why not? We have fun here on XDA ;) I've been doing this same thing all damn day! Just WAITING to see 7.0.0 listed in the Shamu section! I'm sure we all have been doing this lol
[Nexus 6  General] blanco2701:
"Note that if you manually flashed Android N on your device by downloading the image from developer.android.com you won’t receive OTA updates automatically, unless that device is also opted-in to the Android Beta Program on this page."

Taken from FAQs in google.com/android/beta
[Nexus 6  General] JNewms:
Why did you quote me and say the same thing I did?
[Nexus 6  General] blanco2701:
You're saying that the OTA will only come to the people that upgraded with an OTA to the developer preview, but if you manually flashed the image AND opted for the beta program you will get it too. Just adding some info you know, it's a forum after all.
[Nexus 6  General] JNewms:
Ah.. yea, there's that. But then again, I doing know if anyone that opted into the beta, and then manually flashed. Not two things I would imagine someone doing. Oh well, thanks for adding to it.
[Nexus 6  General] wabmorgan:
I am one that manually flashed a zip with TWRP and did not sign up for the beta program. I did this because I did not want device encryption.

That being said, here is the question ? If I was to enroll would my Nexus 6 be encrypted after the OTA update ?

(If so, I will wait for a zip.)
[Nexus 6  General] MikeCriggs:
Just sitting here on DP5 waiting for an image. If I could find the vendor files for 7.0, I'd just build it but they have to be extracted first from the official image -_-
[Nexus 6  General] holeindalip:
Ota for the preview will fail because of twrp, I would wait for the zip,personally encryption performance to unencrypted is nill on newer Android I don't even know why people stay unencrypted nowadays
[Nexus 6  General] zelendel:
Mostly because the encryption is really kinda useless. I mean really when is there a good use for it?
[Nexus 6  General] holeindalip:
Somewhat agree but it's a pita to explain it to newbs all the time and then you have to look for the right unencrypted boot.img yada yada yada just to get an update, get where I'm coming from
[Nexus 6  General] jameseelin:
Still no ota links or factory image for our shamu :( whyyyy :'(
[Nexus 6  General] mariano3113:
I stay unencrypted because of Adoptable storage issues when using Terabyte hard drives that have the media player apps on the drive.

Encryption keys change between ROM flashes and that is just a waste of Data on the now useless Adoptable storage drive.

(Especially when going from Beta to Public releases)

Until Google makes Adoptable storage more hot-swap friendly and not allowing encryption over USB OTG Adoptable storage: possibly even a quick-setting to safely unmount(meaning Core apps are restored on device....not sure why Google allows core apps to be moved to Adoptable storage in the 1st place)

I will stay unencrypted because of USB OTG Adoptable storage on Nexus devices.
[Nexus 6  General] jmartin72:
That's the million dollar question.
[Nexus 6  General] TMG1961:
Hope we will get it today.
[Nexus 6  General] :
That made me a blue panda. I gave up on waiting for Nexus 6 OTA, and went back to CyanogenMod 13 OS for a while. I think Nexus 6 may be the last to receive OTA because its support ends in October - I am hoping I am wrong.
[Nexus 6  General] idbl_fanatic:
According to this: http://www.androidpolice.com/2016/0...gs-full-android-7-0-nougat-nexus-ota-roundup/

Everything but the N6, Nexus 9 (LTE), and General Mobile 4G is out
[Nexus 6  General] MrPib:
We're behind the Nexus Player! How pathetic. And I have the System Update Available notification spamming me every half an hour, offering me DP5 -- just in case I forget that I'm at the back of the bus ;)
[Nexus 6  General] mrgwap03:
Hummm.nexus 6 shamu is still a beast i wonder why google is doing this.
[Nexus 6  General] gothy.gothy:
Just marketing and "money agreements"...
[Nexus 6  General] mituzora:
I have a few theories. First one being that maybe there's a breaking bug, the second being that this is the only 32-bit nexus getting official 7.0
[Nexus 6  General] mrgwap03:
Sounds legit. Im patient im not rushing.i know these devices get more complex every year.i honestly wouldnt mind being on chroma rom until the next nexus device.
[Nexus 6  General] cam30era:
Nope. 6P and 5X factory images are still not posted.
[Nexus 6  General] TonikJDK:
I will throw in my theory. They are intentionally going slow to see if there are any last minite surprises. Just releasing an OTA gives them a much smaller public test. How many Nexus's are not modified to the point that they would accept the OTW. I suspect very few.
[Nexus 6  General] zombolt:
My theory is they are releasing to WiFi only devices first because that LG phone has the exclusive rights to being the first phone to get N?
[Nexus 6  General] blanco2701:
Nexus 9 LTE already got the OTA yesterday, so basically only the Nexus 6 haven't received it.
[Nexus 6  General] aroy97:
So then why were the OTAs released for the 5x and 6p, but not the factory images. Any theories?
[Nexus 6  General] cam30era:
Nope. Factory image, nor OTA for N9 LTE have been posted by Google on the developer web page.
[Nexus 6  General] caloyzki:
Monday will be the next release. Five more days
[Nexus 6  General] blanco2701:
It haven't been posted yet, but beta testers using the 5x, 6p and 9 LTE already received the OTa directly on the phones. The nexus 6 is the only device that haven't received the ota not even to beta testers!! Sad lol

---------- Post added at 01:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:11 PM ----------

Source?
[Nexus 6  General] cam30era:
I'm not sure what you consider "released", but there are no OTAs for 5X nor 6P on Google's developer website.
[Nexus 6  General] clshores:
We haven't even received 7.0 yet but the information on 7.1 is starting to roll in. http://www.techradar.com/us/news/ph...w-nexus-might-launch-with-android-7-1-1327047
[Nexus 6  General] stevew84:
I switched back to the Nexus 6 so I can get a handle with 7.0, whenever the hell it comes to us.
[Nexus 6  General] derekr44:

[Nexus 6  General] clshores:
Yep, it appears Nexus 6 and Nexus 9 LTE are the step children now.
[Nexus 6  General] jameseelin:
Why do I feel like I'm not a Nexus user now ?

I'm kidding of course, could be worse haha
[Nexus 6  General] goinovr:
Impatiently waiting here as well. :D
[Nexus 6  General] cam30era:
Fair enough. Since those are still not on the developer website, I assume they're intended for testing?
[Nexus 6  General] derekr44:
My guess is initial pilot testing group. Send it out to a select few and monitor. Since they haven't "officially" published full images yet (those links are to full images, though), they probably encountered critical issues with vendor binaries since they already pushed AOSP code.
[Nexus 6  General] TMG1961:
Maybe Google decided no to give us the final version of android 7..i hope not but can't shake of the feeling that the N6 is being left outside in the dark
[Nexus 6  General] stevew84:
It is a 2 year old phone, to be fair.
[Nexus 6  General] NOSTALGIA:
android beta program already announced that android 7 is going to hit nexus 6. so just be patient guys.
[Nexus 6  General] snowrelyt:
Why would they give us the beta just to take the final release away?
[Nexus 6  General] KingpinZero:
There's no logical reason to think its not going to hit the 6, please guys stop being obnoxious about it.

An extensive beta testing has already been deployed since announced and it was near to be a daily driver (just look at the dp5).

Have patience. Its better have a 7.0.1 version with last second issues fixed than something half broken.

Probably the 9 and the new nexus have different inner parts that don't have a direct problem that our 6 has (if we talk about probable baseband issues).

Give them time.

[Nexus 6  General] Arju:
That's what happened to the Xperia z3. It was in the Android N beta program and now Sony has announced that only z3+ and above is receiving Android N. Either way that's Sony. I have more faith in Google. I'd rather have a fully functional build than a buggy one. We are going to receive Android N. I'm sure once it's released everyone will start whining about bugs. :silly:
[Nexus 6  General] TMG1961:
I have absolutely no idea why they would do that. But its just a feeling, and not all feelings come true
[Nexus 6  General] pclov3r:
People... Calm the hell down. The official Google blog post said the Nexus 6 is getting it. The 6P and 5X have no images as well.

Flipping out over false conclusions doesn't prove anything.
[Nexus 6  General] Zenety:
It is a bit weird that the Nexus are not getting the updates as fast. The previous updates were all uploaded within a day. And the fact that Google even announced the LG V20 will get N out of the box as first feels like betrayal. Either force manufactures all to have an update ready or keep your Nexus promises. For a company that announces a new update but releases the updates this slow feels weird. There have to be more problems along the way.

And with the recent leaked images of the new Nexus phones I am seriously thinking of getting another Android phone. The OP3 seems WAY better looking for a normal price.
[Nexus 6  General] photolarry:
All Nexus devices have an ota except ours. So odd. Yes we will get it. But just seems strange that all others got it before Shamu. Usually by now there is someone on the inside to post link. Pity you cannot do list of the directory on the Google API website where it's stored.
[Nexus 6  General] mituzora:
Patience is bliss. If I remember correctly lollipop and KitKat were both slow to hit their target devices. I think the official Nexus 7 2012 update hit a few weeks after everything else, and officially the Nexus 4 was about a week off. Chill folks, we will get it
[Nexus 6  General] mixedguy:
The impatience levels in the Nexus 6 forums is staggering... ?
[Nexus 6  General] mikaole:
Aosp source is already pushed. Only gapps needs to be fixed. Maybe this time custom will be out before images?
[Nexus 6  General] zelendel:
People need to read the article again. It isnt that it will be the first phone to get it just the first one sold with it.

Its not complete and still broken. It is also missing many of the fixes google has done but that is nothing new. Google has been not pushing many fixes to aosp as of yet and saving them for their own releases.
[Nexus 6  General] clshores:
Open GApps for 7.0 out already.
[Nexus 6  General] slothdabski:
The nexus 5 already has a WIP nougat build that boots despite no official N support!
[Nexus 6  General] alex482:
It is good news but at the same time sad because we are the last to wait for the update
[Nexus 6  General] TonikJDK:
Based on Google's printed policies on support times we will get it.
[Nexus 6  General] derekr44:
Correct, but there are issues with the new APK v2 signing on ROMs built with the new AOSP code. It's being worked on. Not out of the woods yet, but progress is slowly being made.
[Nexus 6  General] Xdresser:
Tough to wait when I know there is an update even when it won't be much of a difference from the current beta. That's why I have a Nexus.

[Nexus 6  General] H4X0R46:
Staggering indeed! But what can I say? We're all anxious for it haha
[Nexus 6  General] H4X0R46:
I already used me 8 thanks for the day, but thanks zelendel! Much needed insight for this thread! :good:

EDIT: ALSO! Might as well say this here rather than making a THIRD post, platform-tools has been updated today, a small sign of progress being made!
[Nexus 6  General] JimSmith94:
I had planned to wait for Xposed to be working before I updated anyway. Hopefully it will get working on the other Nexus devices, and thus on ours, by the time we get our update.
[Nexus 6  General] monkey3ddd:
i pulled the trigger and joined the beta and have 7 now.
[Nexus 6  General] demigodchewtoy:
Still being offered the developer preview: NPD90G.

No official OTA yet for Nexus 6.
[Nexus 6  General] H4X0R46:
Is it the final build NRD90M or is it a preview build? And for that matter, isn't the factory image supposed to ALWAYS go up before the OTAs do!?
[Nexus 6  General] demigodchewtoy:
Currently the Android beta program is still offering the Preview build only: NPD90G

Edited for clarification.
[Nexus 6  General] sashank:
It's the preview build NPD90G. A lot of people are chiming in that they enrolled in the beta program and got the update, but they aren't aware of the fact that they got the DP5 build. Upon enrolling in the beta program, Google is serving whatever is the latest build for the device, and for Nexus 6 it's DP5.

Factory images generally go up before the OTAs, but not always. In the case of this release, OTAs for Nexus 6P, 5X, Pixel C, and Nexus 9 Wi-Fi started rolling out a day before the factory images were up. URLs for both the full OTAs and the incremental OTAs (from DP5) were captured on the first day (Monday) for all those devices.
[Nexus 6  General] wabmorgan:
Now news of a 7.1 maintenance update

Including Nexus Launcher and Google Assistant

https://youtu.be/OjfmLZwmeBk
[Nexus 6  General] zelendel:
Ok I was a few days off lol. Not worth a .1 update but I'm sure some are excited for it.
[Nexus 6  General] myawan:
I understand patience is required but then what makes you different than a Samsung user? They wait and you also wait. The word 'wait' does not exist in Nexus user's dictionary, we got Nexus over anything else because we hated waiting on our Samsung devices :)

I may sound childish but that's how I am and I want my voice heard.

It was better if they didn't release anything than this half confusing release. I am using Nougat OTA on my Nexus 5x but I am not sure why there is no factory image released, which makes me think that I may be using a buggy release. :(
[Nexus 6  General] veesix:
Well, there's a slight difference: for us the wait is measured in days ;)
[Nexus 6  General] vladtdr:
We are not supposed to wait this long... atleast tweet something or say what's wrong. After all this im going to buy the new iPhone and enjoy timely updates. Nexus 6 wo t be supported after nougat anyway. This is the last nail in the coffin, call me crazy but i bought a nexus so that i could get updates when they are released not after motorola phones...
[Nexus 6  General] HankStorm:
I'm looking forward to getting the final stable release on my N6 as much as anyone but man there are a lot of whiny drama queens in this thread. Some of you need to grow up.
[Nexus 6  General] TMG1961:
Funny thing is that the nexus 5 and 7 do have android 7 via unofficial port

[Nexus 6  General] TAGTRAUM:
Beside the possible problems with radio part, I think that with N6 we have additional reluctance from Qualcomm in part of Vulkan API support, cause of Adreno 400 series must fully support it according to N6 hardware :eek:
[Nexus 6  General] khanam:
Just thinking aloud... If computers are eligible for os version upgrades for years - (I bought a Macbook pro in 2012 and i am on the latest osx 4 years later and my daughter's PC is on windows 10 - I can't even remember when we got it for her), why does Google stop major updates after 2 years? Shouldn't we get os updates for a longer period? I am not sure but I think Apple supports iOS updates for a similar period of time as well on older iphones.

Given that phones cost about the same as computers, and these days phones are built to last longer (apparently that's not so with iPhones - read an interesting article on bgr about failure rates for some component in the iPhone 6/6s being suspiciously high just near 2 year anniversary date), isn't that something we should have an issue with?

I don't mind waiting a few days for an update to the latest and greatest but I would want major updates to come for 4-5 years, and not stop after 2 years. I do not want to be forced to upgrade after 2 years. We still have a functioning Amazon kindle (1st gen), a galaxy tab (1st gen), an HP touchpad (only gen lol) in my household thanks to my son also getting the tinkering bug. If the hardware lasts that long, why do we let Google and the h/w manufacturers get a pass? At the very least Google should extend the sunset dates for nexus devices.
[Nexus 6  General] Rod3:
Really doubt that is the issue for the N6. Qualcomm didn't want to support vulkan on the SD 800/801 devices. The SD 808/810 found in the 5X and 6P also run 400 series GPU and they have no issues. Plus, the Adreno 418 in the SD 808 is not as good as our 420.

My opinion is that it may just be a licensing type issue regarding the radio and posting of images much like in years past (remember JBQ).
[Nexus 6  General] zelendel:
The biggest issue is that the drivers for the hardware has to be updated due to the linux kernel. With a PC windows sends out the updates with no hardware driver updates needed.

To be fair google does push the updates to AOSP at which point people are more then welcome to build their own updates.

Android was targeted at developers for a reason.
