I'd advise to wait on this.... especially if you try to flash back to 6.0.1, a lot of of had issues doing so and some have not been able to recover. I was able to thankfully, but something is definitely causing bootloops when reverting back -- http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6p/help/botched-nougat-install-phone-boot-loop-t3445709

Has anyone seen anything on why we're still waiting for this to appear?

That was a TWRP error. No need to worry about that.
As for the factory image - patience is virtue. :highfive:

I just received an OTA 7.0 NRD90M is this the final version? When I reboot my phone it doesn't say beta anymore as well as in the notification center and night is back on. By the way I just received my 6P today...

So, Im assuming you can flash around freely now? TWRP 3.0.2-2 fixed the horrible EFS/bootloop bug?

Yes. That is the final release.

So there's an updated image out (NRD90S) for the 5X but still no images for the 6P. Ridiculous.

Problem with 6P and N. It was reported by Vodafone and Huawei is working with Google.
Patience.. I'd rather have a stable OS then a buggy one. Anyways you will have it someday.

this link has the download for Android 7 ota. You flash through twrp. It's not factory image from google website. But I flashed it and everything went fine.

spent all day at work today setting up pure nexus with elemental and other sound mods/xposed/etc, only for this to happen today.
Anxiously awaiting factory images to be released.
Do we need to leave the beta program to install with wipe or will it update over the beta do you think?

yep time to factory flash. 6p is missing, sounds like there is more issues over there.
Just noticed, downloading now!
Already flashed. So far things are great and fluid. All my apps restored including data, did not even have to log in. Impressed.

Did you guys need to do a factory reset to flash to Android 7 from 6.0.1?
All restored by the android internal backup? Or did you use titanium or something else?

I've been holding it until the final release ... pushing the OTA now ...
"C:\Users\blabla\Downloads>adb sideload bullhead-ota-nrd90m-fdb8250a.zip
serving: 'bullhead-ota-nrd90m-fdb8250a.zip' (~56%)"
***Update: It finished, and working great so far! Since I pushed the OTA there was no need to reinstall any apps or restore app data. However, when I have some free time (2-3 hours), I'd like to do a fresh factory install to compare performance. I didn't run into any issues with the OTA yet.

Actually that's not true. It mostly depends from which DP you started receiving updates. eg. I clean installed DP5, which had some features removed (eg. night mode, and it's also missing from the final), whereas someone who started clean from DP1 will have it on the final. For the final I guess they were waiting to update the Google Apps, such as Connectivity Services which got updated after the final OTA.

No, fastboot
I'll do it late tonight when I have time to spend doing a full wipe. I'm not looking forward to the fight to root it though. From what I understand, Google is cracking down on rooting.
I had no real issues with OTA. Things seem to be even better after a fresh factory flash.

It's really really really hard to root this phone. Fastboot flashing TWRP then flashing SuperSU in TWRP is tough. I don't know how I ever did it.
When someone that knows what they are talking about says Android is getting harder to root, they mean for those that initially find it (chainfire), not the user. For you and I, it's only a matter of flashing a cute little zip in our custom recovery.

I understand that, but I read this article (a month old) talking about the secure boot and only being able to boot and use partial operating system features if it detects corruption, such as rooting.

Has everyone got the 7.0 update?

I am In the UK and my phone has never been rooted and I am fully stock. I have still not got the OTA yet.
It's been out a while now so should I have had it by now?

That's not the factory image. You can see the link you posted is OTA, not factory image like you suggest. That's just a direct download link to the OTA that others received after enrolling in the beta program.
Factory image page here: https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images
Factory OTA page here: https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/ota
The 7.0 image nor OTA has been posted by Google yet.
@chrisnewton, you can update manually, here is the download and installation guide you would need.

[Q] Anyone on the 7.1.2 BETA BUILD received the final 7.1.2 OTA yet?

As the subject? ?
Wondering the same myself. I have not.
Someone did mention on an Android site that the beta users should see the OTA pushed in the next few days.

Doubt it will wipe. But you could flash the whole image removing the -w from the bat file.

Never used an OTA always flash image simple and no problems, I remember in the past sometimes battery drain etc after installing a OTA

I've been seeing delays in the Verizon rollout with this OTA, not sure why. I have a vzw Pixel however I'm on Project Fi and got the ota almost immediately. I'm not sure if that changes it or not, however.
We also need separate threads or disclaimers for those with locked bootloaders and those unlocked. To say just flash the image instead of sideloading the ota is ludicrous if the bl is locked. That simply can't be done.

I haven't received the OTA yet, I'm on beta 2. I downloaded the update and tried to sideload it, but the installation failed because it says that the beta 2 is a newer build and it won't downgrade. I guess I'll just wait until the OTA from my carrier.

If you are enrolled in beta program but are using non-beta stock, you could try unenrolling from beta. My friend did it and he got an update instantly which otherwise he wouldn't.

There is no harm in checking.
Anyways, google improved ota system quite recently(around 1-2 weeks ago). When you manually check for ota, there is 100% chance that you will get the ota if it exists. It sounds too good to be true, but it is. Check that out.
So if you dont get ota, then something is really wrong.

Definitely unenroll. No reason to be in the beta program now. Even if you are stock with a locked bootloader you can manually sideload a full OTA. There are many tutorials on how to do this.

i'm actually asking for my second N6P which my mom uses, which is why i'm hoping there's a way to fix this without having to sideload since i'd have to do it with her via TeamViewer....
is it necessary to unlock the bootloader to do this or can i just flash the latest factory image or OTA with the bootloader locked via ADB?
Linkk to the beta program is https://www.google.com/android/beta
Getting the OTA's fine. Latest one I have is September 5th, so expecting Octobers any time soon.
Guys, I mentioned beta program because you are supposed to UNenroll from it to get normal updates. Remember that.

Factory reset and the update came right away,. Something in my data was stopping it... We shall see with the next one if it comes automatically in November...
Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk
I also haven't received an OTA update in quite a while. The latest update I was able to receive OTA is the August patch.
I enrolled and un-enrolled from the beta program with the hope that the Oreo OTA would push but only got 7.1.2.
It's a little unusual. I factory reset also after un-enrolling just to see clean it out, to get rid of any bugs that be preventing the OTA. Didn't work.
I would rather not have to sideload the OTA since I always make mistakes with ADB and command prompt.
I am on Project Fi fyi.
