Yes I do. Everything seems to have rolled over fine. Update screen was not the bouncing thingies but simply the G logo. Haven't rebooted to see.. oh just a little of the dots, then a quick G and then it was up. Like maybe 10 seconds for a reboot. Wow.

I just downloaded and installed it with a unlocked bootloader no problem. It's still unlocked and I just rooted it.

All the OTA images are available at https://developers.google.com/android/ota. You can all download as you wish.

The .012 image. It is meant for all the phone's not covered by the .011 build.

Always On Ambient Display
Either, this didn't make it through in my update somehow or I'm overlooking the setting.
Can anyone offer any help on enabling this feature?
Thanks!

Man, that's annoying, I still haven't gotten it on my Project Fi pixel. I left vzw because I never got updates!

Where is the setting for always on ambient display? All I see is the regular ambient display, where it turns on for new notifications.

I've asked around and consensus seems to be that it was NOT included in this update after all. Looks like they're saving it for the Pixel 2.

Im on fi I just downloaded the ota and then sideloaded it.

Go to settings - display - advanced and it will be towards the bottom.
Nevermind, misread. It is only for notifications. You can make it turn on when you pick it up though. By turning on "lift to check phone"

I use the modded one for O here. You need to fastboot and load TWRP every time you use it because it is not flashable yet.

There are also 8.0.0 factory images as well (along with the usual older factory images) - they are all here: http://www.infinitiofsuitland.com/VehicleSearchResults?search=new
To play it safe, I grabbed one 7.1.2 and one 8.0.0 factory image for the Pixel to put through the wringer (since this would be the first Pixel I've ever put through the paces).

Verizon rolling out 5.1.1 to N6

http://www.droid-life.com/2015/07/01/verizon-says-android-5-1-1-lmy47z-is-ready-for-its-nexus-6/
It's happening! LMY47Z.
Not yet hitting my phone, but perhaps by tomorrow ...
I had Verizon's 5.1 build on my phone, but I didn't wait. I just flashed 47Z because I'm on an AT&T MVNO, so I don't know if I would have received the OTA.
It's not on the official Nexus factory image page.

Someone on androidcentral forums confirmed it is. they received LMY47Z as an OTA to their verizon nexus 6 last night coming from E.
I got the ota yesterday, unrooted, flashed stock recovery, and went to accept the ota, started flashing then it said error and stopped, now it says up to date
I just want know if they changed radio but I doubt
Does it have any "Verizon authorized software" added?
I hope it doesn't but according to the letters Verizon sent out responding to the FCC complaints that is why they would not activate a nonVerizon Nexus 6 on their network until Google said that the software could be sent out to those phones via the OTA.

More like they wanted an ota to convert it to the VZW version and they got it. The bloat wasn't really the issue.

Same baseband as the existing LMY47Z
To anyone who's receiving the OTA from LMY47E to LMY47Z - if you're able to, please take a few minutes to grab the OTA URL and share it in this thread. Instructions for getting the OTA URL can be found here, and this will allow people who haven't received the OTA to sideload it.
Thanks!
Question, I have a VZW Nexus 6 I got from a Verizon store a few weeks ago. My firmware version is LMY47l
Is that the correct one? I see you guys talking about an "E" version... When I went back from Android M preview, did I flash the wrong stock ROM in Wugs Nexus Root Toolkit?

Nope and if a phone from Verizon came with that, you were likely sold a returned device instead of a new one.

No, this is my fault. I tried out the Android M preview, and got tired of the FC's and bugs, so I used the Nexus Tool Kit to flash back to stock, and I guess I grabbed the wrong firmware download. I have the Z version for Verizon and will flash that to get me back on track.

Npf26j ota zip

Edit 2: speculation be damned. This seems to be a true release build and not a leaked developer preview like has been hypothesized. Flagged REL for a release build. https://imgur.com/uU0bR2S
THIS IS FOR PIXEL XL ONLY OF COURSE. November 22nd OTA Build NPF26J
Includes bug fixes and performance enhancements. New Modem and Kernel. Kernel updated to include Double Tap To wake and Lift to Wake. May be other features. Don't know.
https://ota.googlezip.net/packages/.../09c7f402fd047c0d631fdd6c4168c934d3b9451b.zip
Pulled from Reddit thread.
Edit: Apparently you have to be on V build before flashing.

Thank you, I thought I read it somewhere but can't find out where.
I'm not going to update anyway, perfectly happy with the way the phone is running with ElementalX kernel and don't want to mess it up
Will there be an update for the NDE63X build eventually or will we have to roll back to the V build?
I bought my pixel from Google but use on Verizon. My phone is running NDE63X. Should I be on V? Anybody else purchase from Google and run on Verizon that can confirm their build for me?

Update 2.51.617.2

Just got a notification tonight about downloading and updating my Sprint HTC 10 to 2.51.617.2.
Has anyone received this update yet? I'm unlocked with Magisk root and don't want to go thru the update if it's going to break Safetynet (again!).
I got the notification too, but I have not allowed it to go in so far.
The update is actually 2.51.651.2 and is July 2017 security update. I did it yesterday without issues.

And "Performance enhancements" too, whatever they may be, as it had no further details on them.
For me, it broke the fingerprint sensor. It now works to unlock the phone only within the first 5 minutes or so after turning it off. After that, I have to use the pattern. It's like the sensor gets disabled during low-power suspend, but turning the screen on doesn't wake it back up. This started immediately after I received the update.

I'm interested to know, too. Is it a fluke or coincidence that I might fix with a factory reset, or is anyone else seeing the same thing? If I'm going to reset anyway, might be time to go ahead and root it.

I tried everything from Sprint's based release. Fingerprint sensor issues everytime. On Leedroid's latest release. It's not firmware related, it's software. Something Sprint put in is messing with fingerprint sensor from sleep.

Originally t mobile variant I rebranded to international and sim unlocked. Also flashed to 9.0.17 and rooted via magisk. Any insight would be appreciated as I have heard improper updating can result in a brick. Thanks in advance

Everybody has installed it... It's been out for days
Went for it yesterday. With an "ultimate guide" here on forum. I was 9.0.17 rooted with twrp description problems. So I downloaded update (1.8Gb) from official One+ site. And did local update, and all the steps to keep root. After finally booting up I got message that Magisk Manager stopped working, but everything was fine. So cleared app temp memory, and settings (for Magisk only) and next boot everything was ok.
Nope... 100% stock, 9.0.17 is ROCK solid, g-pay, samsung pay work perfectly & there really isn't anything in 10 I can't live without yet. So, I
see no need to update for now.
I'm also not updating yet, at least until they fix the keyboard offset issue and other things I've read about.
Luckily you can just freeze the system update app with Titanium.

There is no keyboard offset issue and so therefore it's never getting fixed. Designs can change, but there isn't going to be a fix for something that isn't a problem.

Judging by all the people complaining about the empty space under the keyboard it does seems to be a problem, though.

There is a Magisk module to deal with that (immersive gestural Navigation for Android 10), and an adb command to change the size of the space. It's a deliberate thing from Google so they'll perhaps remove it later or no but staying with Pie just for that.....

It's not a bug, it's there for the swipe gesture, so that way you won't swipe the keypad when using gestures
Sent from my LG-G8 using Tapatalk
Question of the day. I've been waiting to do the A10 update for the issues it showed on the first days. I'm on a converted 6T from TMo, running 9.0.17. my major concern is the GPay thing I use it a lot. But researching here there's a way to make it work if I root the device. So can I update to 10.3.0 then root to get the GPay issue resolved with the Hide module on magisk? Or should I root on Pie then update?

This is pretty bad ux experience, and with the amount of complaints it seems and accidental keypress possibly when swiping is much better than losing all the text and keyboard closing with an accidental touch. At least give us the option to move it down, without having to go into ADB and setting an offset that then interferes with the way all apps render.
