Android N update NPD35K - Nexus 6 General

Just got NPD35K pushed to my phone. Hopefully some new stuff from the Google I/O?
I thought I wouldn't be able to receive updates with a rooted device and a custom kernel. Is this the new way of Android N system image pushing?
Apparently this is now the actual beta. And no longer a preview version. This counts as preview 3.

Just received it also. Great ... exciting!

Got it here too,so far,so good!!!

I've never once taken an ota but I'm tempted. Is it safe to accept if you're decrypted?

Were you unencrypted when you updated to it? I know TWRP doesn't work when it's encrypted (on N) so I'm waiting for the factory images to be released so I can modify those and stay unencrypted, but if it works anyway I'll update ASAP.

Hello. I want to take this update too. My bootloader is locked. Though i have enabled oem unlocking and usb debugging. Can i ota update to android n beta? I mean in case i get into bootloop. I have everything stock. Nothing changed. Currently on may update mob30i.

Encryptable boot/kernel for NPD35K:

What i wanted to ask was. Should i be safe in case o run into bootloop. Or brick my device?

[OTA][PATCH] Kit Kat 19.6.3 OTA File May 2014

Support Discontinued. I've decided to stop supporting this device. Don't have time to deal with idiots like @CrazyRussianXDA
To my friends @bigv5150 @Caseyk621 @rmjones2006 and others, thanks for the good times. I'll be in the shadows.
Ok will do

It shouldn't, and I'm sure it probably won't this time, but many soak testers did brick on stock JB builds through the normal OTA last December (and, strangely, Verizon distributed to non-testers right away, so it affected quite a few people.)
i just wanna know if its gonna have the white status bar and the new dialer basicly.
I wish I knew how to update rooted 4.4 (kept form 4.2.2 by instruction on xda). I do not care too much about preserving root because I have bootloader unlocked now.

You need to backup your apps and contacts, then flash back to factory image. Take the OTA, flash TWRP recovery, you will able to have root again.

We will find out soon, but David Schuster of Motorola said the icons were white about a month ago on Google+. He didn't say anything about the dialer. When somebody asked if it would be 4.4.2 or 4.4.3he said don't worry,we've got you covered. Implying, I guess, that it is 4.4.3 or that any bugs fixed in 4.4.3 for the nexus are already fixed in the update.

If you're referring to the dialer with search funtionality, I believe that is still exclusive to the Nexus 5 (natively, of course there's sideload options).

It hasn't been released and isn't in AOSP. It doesn't exist. Clearly I'm not saying it won't but there's no chance we get something that hasn't been released yet.

Where does the OTA update zip file get saved? I will try to set it aside. Is it OK to just copy it to another folder like Media on the phone's internal memory?

Vzw 5.1 soak ota

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B-05eXAx4kW7aFV3Z3I0OG4yUU0/edit?usp=docslist_api
Hopefully this will help someone make a rooted img for mofo.
Hopefully!
Does anybody know if I will have problems if I install the OTA if I am currently rooted with MoFo? I understand that I will likely lose root, but will I brick my phone or anything?
It's very possible you could brick. You never take an ota on a rooted or modded device.
I sideloaded it today and besides having a mobile data issue that straight talk quickly fixed its working wonderfully.

Can't help with getting it rooted, but thanks for sharing the OTA file. I just flashed it on my VZW moto X and it's working great so far.

What is a systemless root?

As the title states, what is a system less root ? This is my first nexus so I'm getting used to the mods, ROMs and bits n bobs.

Previous chainfire supersu writes in the /system partion, specifically in /system/su directory. This makes some of the security conscience application to reject phones that has /system modified. The newer version of chainfire supersu relocate the files to /su directory, and can pass the security check provided the /su/xbin_bind symbolic link is removed.

Yes. As long as you are on stock, android pay will work with systemless root. You just can't use xposed.

Is there a workaround for getting Xposed to work or something similar that offers some tweaks?
A tip for someone new to ROMS and flashing. If you use Google Authenticator, or any other authenticator app, like Blizzard Authenticator, or Steam Mobile Guard, make sure you deactivate it before you flash anything.

If you are rooted with Systemless SuperSu you can still download the OTA as usual then install it with the Flashfire app rather than installing from the prompt. Worked for me anyway.

Simply restarted the phone and back to 6.0.1. Unfortunately.

I apologize for all of us who take your great work for granted buddy. Don't know what we got till it's gone and even then some of us don't know or care lol. I wish more of us would show our appreciation more. My whole HTC experience has always been dependent on Dottat, Andybones, Santod, jcase, beaups and a few others I can't remember. But there isn't many. I know your work and assistance has helped us all tremendously. If it wasn't for you guy's the HTC experience would go from the best to the worst just like that. My phone choice is always dependent on whether or not you guy's are gonna get the next HTC or not. Pretty big deal if you ask me! I think HTC should put you all on their payroll! HaHa
