Thanks for the quick response. I did the manual, and it went through everything fine. When I rebooted, I got an android that had a warning sign on it. I couldn't do the factory reset, but it booted up to some dancing balls. At this point, it was stuck here for quite some time. Tried to do it again (manual method), and same thing. Tried to flash TWRP, and it flashed TWRP for a quarter second and then rebooted again. Flashed it again doing the auto method, same errors. Ran through the manual method, and this time, it luckily booted up just fine.
I am a little uneasy that I can't boot to recovery, but maybe I'll wait a few more hours and get use to the device. I mostly want that damn att ding gone. When I ran through the 'oem erase', I get a permission denied. But again, this is for a different thread.
So.... my question is why did Google release something that doesn't work in auto mode? Is it just because I have the ATT version of the Nexus, or is it really broke?

There seems to be an issue when executing the flas-all.bat script but the manual method works just fine.
Flashing the stock images won't get rid of the att stuff I believe. You might wanna check here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2947581 for more info.

Yes sir.... I started there but when executing the 'oem erase', it says something about permission being denied. That's why I thought I would flash it back to stock and see what happens...which then led me to this problem.
I appreciate the response but still kind of tasting the waters with the Nexus 6 phone. It's my first Nexus and it's quite an adjustment.

[Q] No Cellular Service - Custom Rom - Is Sprint Radio Available?

I recently rooted my Sprint Nexus 6 and everything was going fine. But then I started to run into issues when running the disabling the decryption. I was able to resolve those and install Pure Rom and customize it to my liking before taking a backup. But I logged into my WiFi immediately when setting up that phone. Soon after I turned off the wifi when stepping out, and I saw an Exclamation Point show up next to what was previously a semi full signal strength meter. I tried calling a few numbers and nothing was working.
I updated my PRL to the latest prior to rooting, etc. I know that this is a risk when you root, but does anyone know a possible solution?
My Recovery, ADB, Fastboot and everything works, I just can't get the signal.
I have also tried to update with the factory image from google:
https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images
It does seem to update the Radio and a few other things, but ultimately fails:

I'm also on Sprint and had the same issue myself, I thinking that since these ROMs are so new that maybe they need our APNs added or something.
Maybe there is another way around this issue for the time being but I didn't investigate it further, I just didn't have time.

I found a workaround, you can manually flash the images inside image-shamu-lrx21o.zip:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash cache cache.img
fastboot flash userdata userdata.img
fastboot flash system system.img

I just flashed the decrypted boot.img, system, userdata, and cache and I was good to go. Fresh install of Stock Rom without Envrcption., and I was able to Update the PRL/Device Config. Now just gotta get it set up and Root again.

[Q] bricked?

hey i may have messed up my nexus 6 already. unlocked the bootloader, rooted it with no problem. downloaded the twrp from play store and installed. got an install error. i looked online for someone having the issue and they said they got error and booted into recovery and it was working. i did the same. once in recovery i did a hard reset just to see if it was working, it worked. after that i hit fix permissions. and then phone would never boot. i was a little drunk so i went into recovery again, and wiped but this time i checked system. not smart i know, but what can i say. now phone boots upto google screen with unlock icon? what do i do?

Sometimes you have to install the drivers on your computer again while your phone is connected and in the boot loader.
Also, if you don't have your environment variables set up correctly, you'll have to open the command prompt from the same folder in which fastboot.exe lies. As well as putting the image files in that folder.

Make sure you have fastboot selected in bootloader and try this tool to make sure fastboot is installed in your machine properly.

Yep. I get the same thing saying it exceeds max download size on system.img
EDIT: Nevermind. You have to wait and let it send sparse file.
Long method works great! Thanks!
Make sure you have the newest fastboot and flash everything manually. If you don't have the newest fastboot it'll throw errors.

You have the latest fastboot installed? Also the system image from Google was extracted to platform tools? And lastly did u check md5 of original download?
Definitely not something wrong with the commands your using.
yep installed latest fastboot like they told me b4 and i put it in platform tools just to have it in same folder i opened cmd in, someone suggested that too i think so i did it. thats why im baffled as to y it wont work.

I know im a little late but you can just use wugfresh nexus toolkit and flash back to stock.

Noob difficulty in flashing stock marshmallow

I'm having some difficulty flashing Marshmallow onto my Nexus 6. It is the first time I am flashing a rom onto this.
I'm running Linux for this. (Mint 17.2) as I ran into trouble with Windows 10 and OSX El Capitan and recognising my device.
I've got the rom unpacked but when I go to flash with flash-all.sh I get an error.
Code:
(bootloader) Data size exceeds download buffer
FAILED (remote failure)
finished. total time: 4.620s
It then dumps me back to the bootloader on the device. I did come across this thread from a while back.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6/help/flash-factory-images-flashing-image-t2948624/page3
It hasn't resolved my problem. I've tried following the long method for installing the rom but it isn't working. I can't get the first stage to execute. I don't seem to actually have a file called bootloader.img anywhere. Is that the problem? Is it missing in this rom?
I'm perfectly happy to completely wipe the device. (It is only 3 days old) I just want to get the stock firmware up and running.

Looks like your fastboot binary is out of date. Did you get it from the latest sdk?
I've downloaded the SDK, but (yes, noob alert) I can't figure out how to actually install it.
I've downloaded fastboot from the terminal and it says I have the latest version.
OK - I installed the SDK. I followed the instructions here
When attempting to flash it seems to go a little bit further but is still failing.

From there I went into the "long way" and flashed the files individually from system.img
I selected recovery and rebooted. I got an Android with a red triangle but held power and volume up. The phone rebooted without me being asked to wipe data/factory reset.
Currently booted up and restoring. How do I check this is stable? I want to make sure I get OTA updates...
So the bootloader and radio worked, then it failed. Is this using the flash-all script?
I'd try extracting the contents of image-shamu-mra58k.zip and flashing each of them manually with fastboot. I've had trouble like that when using the flash-all script.

Sorry, I edited my post with an update...
This seems to be working OK now on Marshmallow.
How do I ensure I get OTA updates from here? Do I need to lock the bootloader again?

Nope. Just stay 100% stock. No root, no mods.

Nexus 6 loop into recovery

folks
I installed N preview 4 on my nexus 6 and it seemed successful but it's constantly booting back into recovery. What do I do so it boots into the actual OS?
Thanks

Already did, didn't help
how are you flashing N?
Do a factory reset from recovery, that might help.
Edit: I'm assuming you're on stock recovery.

This... what did you exactly do?
This phone has had quite a few modifications - it ran cataclysm before. Bootloader is unlocked. Then it ran preview 3. Now, I did a factory reset first and then did a flash-all using instructions on method 2 of this page
forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6/general/android-n-preview-4-beta-npd56n-t3399473
On rebooting, it always comes back to Recovery (TWRP 3.0.2-2)
From recovery, I tried doing Reboot-System and it still comes back into recovery
Should I try flashing stock firmware - can someone provide me a link?
Thanks

It does have all the required img. How are you flashing it?
I flash it manually file by file and it never fails.

instead of using flash-all, flash each partition separate.
Flash all doesn't work. Flash each partition.
Eg:
Fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-xxx. Img
Fastboot reboot-bootloader
Fastboot flash radio radio-xxx.img
Fastboot reboot-bootloader
Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
..... And so on.....

The flash-all.bat file DOES work as long as you have the latest version of Fastboot, which can be obtained by following the instructions under "Flashing Instructions" here. That being said I prefer to flash each image file separately as mentioned above. That method has never failed me and it is easier to see what the error is if any occur.
I just used the flash-all.bat file

TWRP installation problem on Nexus 6

Hey guys,
I'm trying to get TWRP installed on my nexus 6 but it keeps failing.
I've unlocked the bootloader, but everytime I run the command I get the following:
C:\Users\Alex\Downloads\platform-tools-latest-windows\platform-tools>fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.1.0-0-shamu.img
(bootloader) slot-count: not found
(bootloader) slot-suffixes: not found
(bootloader) slot-suffixes: not found
(bootloader) has-slot:recovery: not found
target reported max download size of 536870912 bytes
sending 'recovery' (11681 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.368s]
writing 'recovery'...
OKAY [ 0.178s]
finished. total time: 0.546s
I can't find a similar example anywhere. Can anyone assist? My nexus is on 7.1.1
You could use the official TWRP app to install it. It does it without rebooting.

I flashed an earlier version and got pretty much the same thing you got. When I booted into recovery, TWRP was there. Got the TWRP manager and used that to get updated to 3.1.x

I had my phone wiped already as I wanted a proper fresh install
anyway after a couple of more attempts even though if failed to install, for some reason it worked afterwards when I rebooted the phone, god knows why!
anyway, all sorted

Boot TWRP from fastboot by entering
fastboot boot recovery twrp.img
Copy recovery.img in internal storage and then flash image from twrp by clicking on install and choose image.
Press thanks if i helped

I have same isssue. Have you solved it?
I saw this one when it was first posted, but never got around to answering. Time to change that...

This part is something you'll see if using an up to date fastboot (which is something you should have or flashing stuff might not work). It's purely information that your bootloader is missing certain things that fastboot checks for. It's not an issue.
My guess (without doing any research or actually knowing anything about it) is that those slot-thingymabobs are for the Pixel.
What's important from the output in the OP is this:
sending 'recovery' (11681 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.368s]
writing 'recovery'...
OKAY [ 0.178s]
finished. total time: 0.546s

Taking a look at that output we see that the recovery image first has been sent to the device and then gets written to the device, both reporting OKAY. If it didn't work, a quite clear failure would have been reported.
Just be sure to use the hardware buttons​ to boot to recovery after flashing TWRP, then reboot system from TWRP. Otherwise, stock recovery may overwrite TWRP if you reboot system directly via Fastboot
