Android System Update *root* 24.6 MB........ - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I was hoping someone could help me out with this......
I've been getting this irritating "Android System Update" (screenshot attached) week after week.
I'm rooted (unlocked bootloader), running stock 5.1.1
This update keeps showing up and when I go to install it, the phone reboots, then it goes it TWRP. I'm assuming this hasn't installed correctly because it keeps coming back.
Does anyone know how to get rid of this or install it correctly. It's becoming quite annoying when it pops up time after time.
Thank you-

Install the update manually or block OTAs.

How do I install manually?
That's what I'm trying to find out

You can't take OTA if you are rooted.

Thank you.
So I just need to find the security patch and manually install it?
Now where to find it, LOL

I'd start by reading the stickies at the top of the thread list... Good readng.

this update would probably be LMY48I, for the stagefright patch.
what is your current build number?

LMY47Z (screenshot attached)
I have Verizon.
I thought the builds were carrier specific.

The link you posted is for Galaxy Nexus (not N6). It is the same page, but a different location. You need https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images#shamu
@IINexusII is likely correct that the update you received is LMY48I. So you should be able to flash that

Thank you all very much for your help.
I'll try to patch one of these updates this weekend when I have some time off.
I'm the gatekeeper for all that is Android OS in my family. Myself, my Mom and now my Dad all have Nexus 6' and I've rooted us all. So I install it on my phone first and then the same with theirs.
I was so happy I found a fix for the MLB At Bat app and their stupid blackout rules.

This is just great, been having the same issue and versions
This covered everything I had at the moment!

I applied the update tonight, sick of those damn OTA prompts.
This is where I got mine from, but still not sure if I chose the right one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6/development/fxz-nexus-6-recovery-flashable-fastboot-t3066052
Installed the download from:
LVY48F (5.1.1 Project Fi bugfix update 20150910)
It says Project Fi only, but I have no idea what that is. I didn't see an option for LVY48I, so I went with LVY48F.
Did I do this right?
Want to make sure I didn't screw up my phone.
I tried installing the OEM ROM from here, but it failed while trying to flash it via TWRP recovery:
https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images#shamu
"5.1.1 (LMY48I)"

Anyone?

I recieved OTA

Hello, if anyone is still looking for some OTA screenshots, or proof that the rollout has started. BTW im from Romania
Oh c'mon ! I also live in Romania and nothing yet for me... Anyone else got the OTA update ?
BTW, my carrier is telekom, but I don't think that matters
When will OTA be available in India?
Can anybody received OTA 5.0 in India?

I don't think the OTA is country specific. It's done in random batches I think.

Yes, a friend running stock ROM with no root or any modification. Btw, you can download the ota zip from android police and flash the zip using adb sideload with the help of default stock recovery.

Happy for ya, man, but please don't forget about the rest of us. From what I understand, you are one of the 1% and Google await some kinda feedback from this 1% group (sent out automatically by the device) before they proceed to the next step - the 25%. So, please... please do not f*ck with your phone for the next 24-48 hours so that it sends out a positive signal or feedback (whatever), thus making Google move ahead to the 25% phase of the rollout. Here's hoping my device is part of that 25%. *fingers crossed*
I also live in Romania, my carrier is Digi, and the N5 i own is from them. No update yet, been bugging with the check for updates button all day yesterday
I know I could force update but i wanna use the OTA because i wanna see how Google envisioned the whole upgrade experience
Also this will be the only phone i will not be messing around with.
It doesn't matter how many times you mash the "Check for update" button. I read yesterday that they rollout the update to 1% of the devices to check for issues with the upgrade. If you didn't make it in the first wave, you won't force it by checking. Then they release it to 25%, 50% and so on. You can get the OTA from HERE manually, if you want it so badly. I flashed the factory image and didn't restore anything. Be sure to get the KTU84P, as the KTU84Q is only for a very small part of the world.
Edit: I found the Reddit thread that discusses this policy.

[Q] Got 5.1.1 system update message but I'm on att?

Got 5.1.1 system update message but I'm on att? And when I check the list of stock android images, there is no 5.1.1 for att. Is it possible they are pushing ota's before they make the new image available to developers? Sounds odd to me.
I'm also rooted (but with stock recovery), so it sounds like I can't do the ota? I also have a Fi request out there. Or can I? I'm rooted but I haven't changed any system files. Can I do the ota rooted but with stock recovery and unmodified system files?
Should I unroot and try to get the ota?
-peter
If I'm not mistaken they normally do otas before images. You might be the first one to get this one. Get the url.

hmmm, not sure how to get the url. the message was a system message, not an email with a link. the message says "Android 5.1.1 System Update Downloaded and Verfied..." i'm rooted with root permissions on ES file explorer, i can look for the ota but i'm not sure where they are kept after they are downloaded.

There is only one LMY47Z. It says "For Sprint and USC only". Same build AT&T is pushing via OTA.
At&t rolled out the ota for at&t the zip is already available on xda for a few days now I sideloaded it two days ago. The factory image has not yet been posted on Google's site.
Edit: I wouldn't use the image that is posted on Google because even though it has the same build number the boot.img and radio are most likely different.

I installed the OTA. Fastboot flashed back to 47D. Then after a few days flashed the 47Z factory image. They are identical. Same boot.img and same radio.

Edit: I ask because why would they put for sprint only on google's image download site. Kinda makes no sense to me at all, but you could be 100% correct I never flashed the image files off google's site.

I've had the 5.1.1 system update notice for a few days and finally clicked "install" - it counts down to reboot, then instead of rebooting it says "system up to date" with the current time stamp.
I am rooted, unencrypted, Franco kernel, stock 5.1 ROM.
I assume the root and/or un-encryption is somehow preventing the system updates? Is there any way to stop the system update notification?
Thanks.
I took a dive and did the update. My phone is now in a wonky state. Its still at 5.1. Every time I power on my phone, it does the applications countdown like its indexing all the apps.
(Unencrypted, ElementalX, 5.1)

Do you mean you tried to install the OTA? If so, it won't install for you. You have to have be stock (encrypted kernel, no root, stock recovery). Your best option is to fastboot flash the factory image.

Yeah, I tried to install the OTA. I heard it wasn't going to work. I just expected the "verification" step to fail before it tried to install. Apparently something fubar'd.

Repeat update notification

Afternoon all, just wondering if anyone could help on a quick problem - my Nexus 6 keeps prompting me to update but when I do it hangs after the reboot with what I assume is the recovery error message (red exclamation mark). I'm already on build LMY48I on 5.1.1, which I was under the impression was the September 2015 security patch. I'm fully stock, not rooted or any other mods. I am abroad currently, which I wouldn't imagine has any effect?
Could anyone offer any help on this or steer me in the right direction for further information.
Thanks in advance.
Latest build is LMY48M. OTA may fail because of corrupted download.
You may wanna update your signature.
Yeah, OK, thanks, not been around these parts for awhile.
Would you mind letting me know how I would go about getting a fresh download of the update using OTA?
Thank for the reply.
Still booting normally? Bootloader locked?
When you get to error with Android logo with tummy open press Power then VolumeUp this will show more details about the error. Write everything down.
Hi, sorry for for delay in replying. Bootloader is locked, boots normally when not trying to apply this update.
Next time I try to update I'll log the error messages and revert back here, thanks for your help.

If you're overseas you may be getting an incorrect build, not quite sure how that works
Strangely I thought it might have something towards do with being in Spain. I'll factory reset when I get home and see if that works.
Me too
Sorry to bump an old thread but the OP describes the EXACT problem I am having. Repeat system update update notifications. It says its downloaded but it goes to error when apply the update. I first got the notification in Qatar. I am unlocked and rootwd nexus 6 but running stock 5.1.1.

There have been serveral updates with version number 5.1.1. What you need to check is the build number.
The latest are LMY48M (most people), LYZ28K (T-Mobile) or LVY48F (Project Fi).

Ah, just re-read your first post. You can't take an OTA-update, since you're rooted. You need to flash a factory image (or relevant parts of one).
Check the stickies for instructions...

I have 47Z installed. I'll use nexus root toolkit to get the latest. Thanks SO MUCH!
Evening all and sorry for delayed response. I've called Google today and they were no help whatsoever, the person I spoke to didn't even know the difference between Android versions and build numbers, I had to explain it to her. Is there any way of checking or finding out what build is being pushed to my phone? Also, will I be able to update to 6.0 when it arrives if I haven't sorted this problem ie how to clear this potentially corrupted download? Am I correct in thinking that I need to be on LMY48M and not on LMY48I - thanks in advance.

At this point you have few choices.
File bug report and wait for resolution.
Try Factory Reset. Using PC try fastboot format userdata and format cache.
Unlock bootloader and flash factory image. Might just well go straight to 6.0 MRA58K. You will loose all your private data either way. Backup all your private stuff.
So have downloaded the MRA58K build of 6.0, attempting to sideload via ADB, device seen, reboot bootloader, into recovery, use ./adb sideload 'file.zip' but getting a footer and signature error. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
And how the hell does one update a 5 year old signature on XDA!?
Edit - so just reading around and there are two issues I've noted 1) that I'm going from LMY48I straight to MRA58K and missing out LMY48M or 2) that the factory images can't be sideloaded, they need to use the fastboot scripts. Any ideas what could be causing my errors?

You'll have to find the update from ur current version to the new version. You'll probably have to get LMY48M, didn't see one from I

How to update R1 to the latest OTA Update?

Hey All,
I'm looking for some help nito update this device to the latest OTA update. I have installed TWRP 3.0.2.0 that came with the dirtycow method. The device found the latest updated released in the past few days but when going to install it, it brings up the TWRP (which is how it should install). Now I don't mind if I can't grab this latest version due to whatever reason, but how would I go about updating the device? Currently it's running the stock version 6.1 6/17/2016.
Sorry if this has been answered somewhere, but still kinda new with Android devices and the whole rooting process. I'd like to be able to keep TWRP if at all possible and keep this device updated. Also I saw there was a updated TWRP released, how would I go about updating the recovery?
Thanks a lot for the help anyone can give!

Already tried it and it doesn't work. She uses the phone to play Pokemon Go and sadly the modified version you've made gives the error that the device or software is not supported. I believe this is due to the method you are using to remove the ads and custom changes made to the ROM, which I don't personally care if the phone has them or not. I'm wanting to install OTA updates without any heavy modifications made, just the ability to keep TWRP but have an updated phone.

Will be redoing the patch again and making not pre-rooted version. But if your app is not working on the modified 7.4.2 there is nothing I can do.

I see V8 but do not see a 7.4.2 on there.
EDIT: Nevermind I found it, will try the modified 7.4.2 and get back to you.

I want to say thank you a lot, this worked wonderfully! Only issue is Google Plus doesn't work (not a huge deal for the wife) but everything else is working great!
One last question, what is the recommended TWRP to use with this phone, I currently have the 3.0.2.0 Vampire version installed.

I have seen it mentioned that Google + does not work on 8.3 in general not just this modified one.
That recovery is the one I use and has advantage over the other one (lopestom's versio) in that in recovery you can use external sdcard and also mtp connection.

[ROM] TWRP Flashable Stock Builds

*FILES REMOVED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE, AS USERS ARE HAVING CONNECTION ISSUES AFTER FLASHING*
Here are the latest stock retail builds packaged into TWRP flashable format.
You can use these files to upgrade and downgrade stock builds safely, as they do not include gpt (partition table) or bootloader.
Usage is simple:
Copy file to device storage
Reboot into TWRP
Flash zip
Profit!
Please remember to hit the "THANKS" button if these files help you!
NOTES:
Dm-verity and force encryption have been disabled in the boot images, and unlocked device/dm-verity warnings have been disabled in the logo images.
Do NOT attempt to apply standard OTAs over these builds; they will fail.
If you get an OTA for a build that's not yet available, please share it!
How To Pull An OTA update:
Download the update
Power off and boot into TWRP
Go to Advanced > File Manager
Navigate to /cache
There will be a Blur_Version_blah.zip file
Copy to internal storage or sdcard
Copy from internal storage or sdcard to PC (optional, recommended)
Upload to Drive, Mega, or whichever file sharing service you choose
Share the link!
If you're rooted/modded and want to prevent potential auto updating, you can wipe /cache to remove the file.

So the 118-19-6 is good for the XT1710-01 Retail directly from Motorola?

This is from a US unlocked Z2 Play.
The model number is XT1710-01.
Are the listed firmware versions proper for my model?

Dude, what did I just say? I DON'T KNOW.
I'm sure it will work, but it may take you off your official upgrade path.
And with no fastboot file available for your current software version, I would take a full TWRP backup and copy to pc for safekeeping before trying anything.

Noooo, please restore! I've been using the steps and files provided to get rid of the annoying "an update is available" notifications on my rooted XT1710-09!
And yesterday a new one has appeared...
Indeed please restore it can't hurt having it up here
We don't even have custom roms, this is the closest we can get for now. Please post more builds!

I'm going to buy my z2 play bike at the end of the year and it's a shame not to have an updated lite rom. Probably you should be doing a good job.
It would be nice to have a rom lite for ALL MODEL with deodex, delete more apps OTA / CCC / CCE, OTA process is deleted, remove a lot of the background services collect and send data on the type of phone (DropBox, MotoCare , MotoConntect, Drive and etc).

Updated the OP with the latest retail build NPSS26.118-19-11.
Unlike most carrier unlocked moto devices, which tend to have multiple upgrade paths for different regions, the albus seems to have only one upgrade path for the retail variant so far.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong, and please post the OTA files for alternate upgrade paths if you have them; directions are in the OP.
I have linked the tools I use to create these at the bottom of the OP.
You can use these tools and info in their threads to reverse engineer the stock build and modify it to your liking.
Thank you so much now i can have the latest update for my rooted moto thanks a lot
I have an unlocked Moto Z2 Play XT1710-01 and this is the latest update I am seeing:
NPSS26.118-24-6
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1IUG-o0HWCgFGyNwX3aWzd4oqhHAzK25T/view?usp=sharing
EDIT:
I think i now understand the file name structure and that it includes the date. My updated was from 6/26 and your updated was from 11/19. I just updated to the newest. Thank you for doing this!

The file name structure doesn't have anything to do with the date it was made afaik.
That update is for "albus_c" and not "albus". I'm not sure what the difference is.
Apparently, there are multiple upgrade paths after all.
Flashing this will likely take you off your current upgrade path, but it is safe, so you can always go back to your previous stock build if you want.

Thanks @Q9Nap!
I've attempted to follow your instructions about applying OTA via TWRP, but that fails because of mismatching thumbprint - which sounds odd since I've downloaded and attempted to flash on exactly the same device...
Anyway, I'll try soon to flash the full stock ROM, after download from the link you've re-posted.
New update NOT PATCHED YET NPSS26.118-19-14
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1df6c3cWDU0mxt__mFhL-GiqzQzLWdKrD/view?usp=drivesdk
Contains November security updates
This has not yet been patched please wait for OP to do So
@Q9Nap can you put a tutorial on here telling us how to make a update flashable
