Gapps version for Sprint Nexus 6 - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I initially made a mistake and installed the wrong version of Gapps for my Sprint Nexus 6. I was able to finally revert back to the original version...Which was version 7.0.96(1785884-430). I was just wanting to see if anyone could tell me if this is the correct version that I should be on or if not which is the newest one that I should be running?

Software wise, all Nexus 6's are equal. Sprint is the same as Verizon, which is the same as UK, India etc. The only difference between the 2 models (North America and International) is the Radio Bands for LTE.
So in answer to your question, use the latest 5.1 Gapps if you run a 5.1 ROM or run the latest 5.0.2 Gapps, if you run a 5.0.2 ROM.

Thank you for the quick response but I completely screwed up my question. I meant that I updated Google play services not Gapps. I just want to make sure of the version of Google play services I should be on?
I have no idea why I put gapps in the title!

The latest.

I went to the download page for the latest Google play services and grabbed the latest one. The problem is I am getting fc's with play music and gmail now. Can you possibly tell me the number version of which one you have on your phone?

Only difference for you then is one is newer than the other. So use the newest (48i).
Further info: ALL Nexus 6 can use the same ROMs. The only difference is that some US carriers have specific ROMs to add functions or just so they can approve the builds themselves. So you just need to avoid the Builds that are specifically for T-Mobile or Verizon IF you want OTA to work in the future. Otherwise, you could use any.

Question about fastboot flashing.

Alright guys, so I have a quick question I'm unsure about. So I bought a Nexus 6 off of the Google Play Store, and I am using it on T-Mobile. So for the wifi calling feature, I understand that I would have to have bought the device from T-Mobile themselves for the feature to be built into the OS correct? And if that's the case, is it safe to fastboot flash the T-Mobile firmware to a device bought off of Google Play? Or is that a bad idea because of a different chipset of some kind? Thanks!

Yes, you can flash the t-mobile img and get the features they offer.
Just to clarify:
All N6 are the same. What build you get in an OTA is decided based on your sim-card (if you have a T-mobile sim, you'll get the T-mobile build).
In other words, if you're using a T-mobile sim there should be no reason for you to flash an image. Unless you've been tinkering with your phone (root, custom recovery, custom kernel), then you have to use the images to update since it'll be impossible to install updates through OTA.
So it doesn't hurt to flash any of the builds that's on the Google developers site for my nexus 6? None will brick the device somehow? And also, I have a T-Mobile sim in my nexus here, but my phone still updated to LMY48M not the T-Mobile build. I have tinkered with the device, yes. It is rooted right now and I have flashed images to it before. I have flashed LMY48I earlier on and just last week flashed LMY48M. But I did an OTA update from stock LMY48I and it took me to LMY48M. Sorry if this is confusing.

Yes, when you're in the US.
Here in Europe (Netherlands) we use a different image, although we have also T-Mobile.
It is good you ask about this, because there are many others that are/were confused.

Yes, it is safe to flash on any Nexus 6. North American or International. Every Rom works on Every Nexus 6. Regardless. The only difference is if you are on T-mobile or Verizon, if you want WiFi Calling or VoLTE (respectively) You'll need their specific builds.
Oh yea, it's definitely confusing haha When it comes to flashing anything Android powered, there's almost always a possibility to brick so I had to ask. Alright! Thanks guys! I'm gonna flash the T-Mobile image today because I am on T-Mobile and this phone is still on the US International image.

So just to clarify, there is no risk in flashing ANY of the images for the nexus 6 because all nexus 6 devices around the world are the same chipset correct?

Just making 100% sure, it was said yes, but not directly. They said "go ahead and flash the T-Mobile build" but as for "any" build, notice the word "any". I just wanna make sure, sorry I don't wanna hard brick a $700 device.

If on T-Mobile flash latest for T-Mobile. If not on T-Mobile flash latest Generic which is every carrier but T-Mobile. It not rocket science.

why do you want to install an older version(that's not international)? the latest version is MMB29S, and all nexus run it, its not just international. again, all nexus are running the same build. the difference between american and international versions are only the radio bands being used by the phone itself.

Android 10 Update for OnePlus 6T T-Mobile Variant

T-Mobile just released the Android 10 update for their variant of the OnePlus 6T. Maybe now we can finally figure out how to resolve the Google Pay issue that most of us who converted to the international version are having.
https://www.t-mobile.com/support/devices/android/oneplus-6t/software-updates-oneplus-6t
I just grabbed this update!
Nice! Thanks for letting us know. I am going to flash over to the international ROM now and see if G-Pay works. Maybe do it later.
Edit: It didint. But G-Pay seems to be fine on T-Mobile ROM as well as Netflix, etc. I also noted that they only force the T-Mobile app on the phone now. I think they did away with putting the Visual voice Mail and the Unlock app in the system partition. I dont know for sure.

I have T-Mobile converted to intl. , 10.0.3.1. I deleted data for google play and google play services but the phone is still showed as not certified.
Maybe I need a full reset, not sure. I thought that when T-Mobile will certify their version with google, all should be fine automatically. Seems I was wrong

Does Google pay work for the TMobile phones running the TMobile a10?

Great question - I hope T-Mobile users will answer this asap
I've done the same thing: I wiped Google Pay, Google Play Services, Play Store and Google Framework Services but nothing changed. My device is still uncertified. And before anyone asks, my bootloader is still locked. I have not rooted.
I am going back to T-Mobile 9 and going through the upgrade ritual. This is what I have been waiting for.

Use the T-Mobile MSM tool to revert back to 9.0.13, then after returning to T-Mobile, update the security update to Nov. After that 10.3 will be in you next system update.

I have no idea, but my bet is no.
Has anybody tried going back to international version after getting A10 in Tmo ROM? And if yes, how is Google pay and the whole certification thing? I'd really like to stay international..
I see no value in running international other than quicker security update. T-Mobile 10.3 is buttery smooth.
I'm not sure what issue you guys are running in to. I'm running a tmo convert on international with 10.3.1, Google pay working, play store certified, safety net checked. Are you guys not using magisk?
I reverted to T-Mobile, can't say I noticed decreased battery life when I switched to global ROM, but I see a huge increase in battery life switching back to T-Mobile. At end of work day 60% left vice usual 40%. Small sample of two days but I'll take it.
I have converted to international. At present, running v9.0.17. How can I revert to T-Mobile? If I run the MSM tool it complains that images don't match.
