Hi all, I keep checking almost everyday but my Nexus 6P says there are no new updates, the system is 7.1.1 and January 5th 2017 security patch.
A friend of mine has her 6P on Android 7.1.2 and June security update.
What should I do to get my OTA and update my device?

Well did you unlock your bootloader or anything? Maybe try factory resetting and check the about and software update section. Also, this should probably be in the Q&A section not general but too late now.
Well no, nothing at all, my device is as out of the box. Never rooted, unlocked or something like that even though this is not new to me.
I got it in January, and never got an update since than.
Is there something easier than factory reset? Something that doesn't require a backup and wiping my data?

I honestly don't know. Your best option is likely a factory reset or maybe call Google or Huawei about the problem.
Today, before posting here, I chatted with support.google.com\nexus employee who told me to try a reboot in safe mode, than normal mode again (and nothing changed) and than to wait for my device to find the update itself.
Not very useful.

If you have a SIM from a different carrier handy you can pop that in. It doesn't even have to be activated. Once you see the new carrier in the notification bar, shutdown and put your SIM back in. Now you should get an OTA almost immediately. This has worked for me.

A Sim card from different carrier?
I'll give it a try, otherwise I've found out that I can sideload an OTA update using adb without wiping my data or unlocking the bootloader.
I could sideload the August OTA and it should unlock my phone and get the future updates.
I'll try the easier carrier-thing first.

Try that method and if it didn't work then you can always do an OTA sideload, which does not wipe your data.

I just switched back my sim card from another carrier and nothing happens.
After manually checking for updates it keeps saying my Nexus is up to date.

I've just sideloaded the 7.1.2 August 5th update.
After the adb process my Nexus 6P rebooted and was stuck on the Google logo for something like 5 mins, I litteraly sh****d myself until the homescreen came up.. XD
I don't know if the problem is solved, if the Nexus will get the next update on his own, but for now is up to date.

So our device is added in the list of devices that are gonna update to 6.0 .... What do you think when is our moto gonna get the update?
I think that E will get update in February but the rolling out will be very slow like 5.1.
Sorry for my english
Inviato dal mio MotoE2(4G-LTE) utilizzando Tapatalk
The update looks promising
No 6.0 for US phones. Hoping for a Surnia port, since I use the phone as a mp3 player and not as a phone.
I am not even have received the 5.1!!
Bring on the marshmallow update before end of January. ;]

A little too late
I have shift my rom to cyanogenmod after motorola chose to ditch this phone last few months. Not to mention cyanogen releases monthly security updates for my dear beloved surnia. If the update looks promising I might shift to stock rom again. Anyway for me this is just a bonus. And there is still a doubt on my mind we might get this update because of what happened to our long gone Android 5.1 only the US variant enjoyed this update.
Yeah I got 5.1.1 update now!!!

Hi,
I don't think the OTA has been going out yet, but Google have updated the factory website putting the Nexus 6P at version 6.0.1 (MMB29V)
https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images#angler
I'm downloading it now - file size looks similar to MMB29Q so only security updates here.
Security bulletin - http://source.android.com/security/bulletin/2016-03-01.html
I'll be updating tonight!
Update tonight then.
Whilst it's good that we are getting these monthly updates I'm surprised there hasn't been more bug fixes or enhancements updates as of yet.

It's because there security updates, bug fixes etc are just a bonus.
B/L and radio are still the same?( 2.45, and 2.50) Looks like only vendor image is new.
I´ve flashed the update through fastboot ( boot, system and vendor ) and everything seems to be OK. It´s the fastest way to do instead of having to wait for OTAs.
Is there a way to make a flashable zip for this? After my laptop's hd corrupted I realized what a pain it is to be reliant on another device to update this one.
Download is incredibly slow for me.

Yes, usually a new version is out with a new nexus, the same day.
The new LG isn't out yet, it will be the first to ship with native nougat on board.
So if it's really going to hit our phones today, is the first time the new OS comes out before the phone
Yes. So then where is the nexus?
Maybe Google learned after the past two years where everything is spoiled weeks prior to the official announcement of the device. Would make sense if we just got the device out thin air.

The only reason I think it's coming sooner is because of the OS release.
Nexus 6 released with 5.0
Nexus 6p released with 6.0
So then why break the tradition? I think I'm right on that by the way.

Wow! Got the notification about installing the march update now, on the same day as the news about is out. That's a first. Usually I have to wait for weeks for it.
Maybe it's something really important with it for Google to push it faster?

Out of curiosity, I bought my 6P thru the play store but use it on Verizon. I assume I need to use VZW only build, but wasn't sure if it was intended for the phone if you bought from VZW.

Correct. You would choose NUF26N for use on the Verizon network.

I've always been interested in this same question. The only thing I've ever really heard has been related to the fact that the Google dialer has visual vmail embedded in it, and if you're on Verizon u need to flash the Verizon image in order for visual vmail and other call-related features to work properly.
Yeah voicemail doesn't work on non verizon variant
