Hi, I'm about to install the 5.1 update but I noticed two versions in the android site: LMY47D and LMY47E, I'm currently in 5.0.1 and this phone was bought from AT&T, can I (or should I) install LMY47E without having LMY47D already installed? Thanks a lot!

LMY47E is for verizon users. LMY47D should be perfect for u since u are on AT&T.

are you side loading or fastboot flashing? If you plan on fastboot flashing you must unlock the bootloader (be sure to check off oem unlock before you do it).... this will erase all your data so back it up if you want to keep it also you will need usb debugging turned on in developer options. Then of course there is custom recovery and root.... very nice to have but not necessary. Although it really isn't difficult to do ... lots of tutorials out there..... read lots fail little....
Thanks for the heads up, I'm using fastboot because I'm rooted, and I already did it for 5.0.1 so I'm good with that, I'm just struggling on which version to install haha :S !

47D is considered global.... start with that and see how it goes for you.... I ended up with a combination... flash 47D then 47E but found radio .98 to not perform well for me after a few days testing.. then flashed just the radio back to .95 (47D)
LMY47D is going to be then, thanks a lot!

The *network* has nothing to do with it.
Google trickles the updates out over a period of several WEEKS.
You either wait for it to hit your SERIAL NUMBER, or you download it from the google factory images page.

I started with D. Then flashed E image. I could not see any difference in radio performance (nor anything else for that mater). Back to D.
I'm on the e build the radio is faster on the e build on at&t in my area,plus they just posted a newer factory image its an I build
I am on LMY47D and would like to get on LMY47E to get the updated radio. I would like to make it as seamless as possible. Any OTA? Or can I Flash LMY47E without unlocking bootloader? Tried to find but there are soooo many opinions. Thoughts on this? Thanks in advance!

No, not without unlocking. There's no OTA update that specifically goes from LMY47D to LMY47E. Only from 5.0.1 to 5.1 so only option is to unlock. Sorry.
I'm trying to get on the 98 radio, currently on the 95. If I unlock, does flashing a factoring image automatically relock it?

No, flashing a factory image will not lock your bootloader.

You're best option is to unlock your bootloader. Then flash the system.img and radio.img from LMY47E. Then follow @Evolution_Freak 's guide on "how to safely relock bootloader".
Will an ota push to put the n6 on a verizon build like LMY47E if its currently on LMY47M and I put a vzw sim in it? Everything works now, just curious if it'll come automatically or if i need to load it manually.

Probably not. If you're not on E, when Verizon finally releases the OTA, you won't get it.
Thanks. Decided to unlock and flash lmy47e to avoid any issues.
Hi,
Can you please tell me how did you flash lmy47e?
I tried doing that with wugs toolkit, but it just hangs.
Thanks.

I'm on Verizon, rooted and unlocked, currently running LMY47Z. I just got an OTA alert for an android system update - is it LMY48I?
I'm looking for confirmation since it seems to have the same version number as LMY47Z (5.1.1). Thanks!
EDIT: I flashed LMY48I through fastboot and it works fine. Apparently the only fix is for that MMS exploit, nothing major.
Probably not but if you are rooted don't matter. Can't flash the update.
You can flash the radio and bootloader(firmware only), if you want I, and then you'll be on LMY47I. If your on a custom ROM then your system is whatever build they want to label it. Data,recovery and boot are not necessary. I updated from E to Z by simply flashing radio and bootloader in twrp.

Hi... I'm in the same boat, sort of. I have LMY47D.
I just discovered the link on Google to the OTA for the Nexus 6 to get to LMY48I. But the link text said "shamu LMY48I from LMY47Z." I guess what I really need is "shamu LMY48I from LMY47D" but something tells me that will never exist. So my question is, can I just apply the LMY47Z to LMY48I OTA via sideload? I know how to do it with the Nexus Root Toolkit.
Any advice would be appreciated!

radio and bootloader do not get you an update, system is what gets you the actual update. and you didnt mention it anywhere.

Good to know. I'm wanting to flash to it as well...but regarding my previous post, do you or anyone else know if I'm on LMY47D if it's safe to use the "shamu LMY48I from LMY47Z" OTA file? I'm not LMY47Z, I'm on LMY47D.

It's most likely fine to go from LMY47D to LMY48I, since flashing the system.img file overwrites the entirety of the OS (note: I only ever flash boot.img, system.img and the radios). Though if you're cautious, take a look at the list on the nexus image site, and try flashing from LMY47D to LMY47Z, then to LMY48I.
Thank you for the response... the Nexus images are full images, so I could (should?) probably just flash the entire LMY48I image.

No. The OTA file will not work if your phone is on LMY47D, and your OTA file expects LMY47Z
Edit: See http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6/general/ref-nexus-6-stock-ota-urls-t2906493 - there is an OTA link in the first post that will get you from LMY47D to LMY47Z, and there is another OTA link there that will then take you from LMY47Z to LMY48I

If using the factory images, no need to jump thru' multiple images. Just pick the right image that you want and flash it.
I unlocked the bootloader on my XT1096 (verizon) Moto X 2014. Currently running stock 5.1 ROM.
What's the best way to get Marshmallow on? Can I use a ROM from another model? Do I need to flash a recovery? Thanks.

The only way to get Marshmallow on a verizon would be with a custom rom that supports CDMA. I know that CM13 supporta CDMA so that one would work.
And while yes you could flash the rom from another model like the xt1095, it would lose verizon signal since the other models are GSM instead of CDMA.

"if u want to convert your device dont forget about NON-HLOS.bin and fsg.mbn. That is modem files. U should take them from official 5.1 image for xt1097 otherwise your network wont work"
Would I be able to flash the XT1095 stock MM image and then copy those files over, retaining Verizon signal?

tomas1pit is incorrect, if you look in other threads of people that have unlocked bootloaders with verizon, they lose signal completely if they convert to another model. He does not realize that xt1096 is CDMA, the NON-HLOS.bin and fsg.mbn apply to GSM.
You can still get signal if you change to another model, but only if you put a sim chip in your phone for AT&T, T-Mobile, etc since those companies are GSM. The problem is that switching firmware makes it incompatible with verizon.
If you plan to stay with verizon, custom roms are your only choice. If you change to a GSM company then you can use the stock firmware from another model.

Roger. Thanks.
It took a few tries to get TWRP on... I had to use crpalmer's custom version, the regular version didn't work. I'll hunt around for a custom ROM. If anyone has any suggestions (as close to stock Android as possible) I'd appreciate it.

No problem. Your best bet would be to read the custom rom threads and see if any say they support cdma. Or post in the thread to ask the developer if it does.
The only one I know for sure works with verizon is CM13, since I have read that some verizon users have tried it and it worked for them. I assume that roms that are based off CM might work, but you know what they say about assuming... Anyway good luck finding a rom you like.

I unlocked the bootloader on Verizon xt1096 Android 5.1, installed latest twrp recovery and installed SuperSU and am rooted. Woot. Twrp is super useful! I'd just be careful with what you're flashing of course.
I couldn't get official TWRP to work, but this custom version worked for me:

Same situation. Just recently unlocked the bootloader on my XT1096 (Verizon Moto X 2). Trying to figure out how to get to Marshmallow (stock or rooted) but with Verizon radios. Can't seem to find XT1096/Verizon radios in a flashable zip.

Just a little humor. I have reached out to KidJoe here for some help. I also reached out to MotoCare and they are sending me a new MotoX (for me to tinker with some more).
I would suggest that we need to find a way to get the XT1096 to XT1095, while keeping factory bootloader to accept future OTAs. The VZW radios are out there, just will need to flash them via ADB if/when new OTAs come though.
So for right now, no other custom rom will work with the xt1096 unless somebody makes it specifically or customizes a different rom to suit it right?
CM13 and derived ROMS should work. There are other non-Marshmallow ROMs, I think.

Where did you get this? All the official TWRP builds throw a mismatched partition size error and won't install.
If I understand correctly, if I'm not using the phone on Verizon I can install any ROM?
crpalmer posted it in the CM12 thread.
I was able to get the latest TWRP installed. Took a few attempts.
i flashed mine with twrp it said the same thing when i fastbbot flashed it but it worked i just booted in recovery any ways and it worked
