Update notification of marshmallow but no installation?? - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I'm French and I 'very got a stock nexus 6.
I have the 5.1.1 android (LMY48T) and as I noticed a notification about 6.0 I started the update.
After few minutes, the update was DLed and a rebootr was announced... But nothing.
I waited for a bit.
And tried to shut-off the phone for a manual reboot... Now I'm still in 5.1.1, and when I check the update it's says that my phone is up-to-date..
Any help?
Thanks for reading.
Greg

Happened to me too on my Nexus 6

Thanks for the contribution, did you find any piece of information anywhere else?

no not at all :/

Bummer...

hello gregaste
i can confirm the exact same problem downloaded the ota and pressed restart and install and nothing happened it its telling me ur device is up to date ! i hope somone can help us

Are you rooted? Not sure what "very stock" means. OTAs will fail if you are.

Had the same thing happen to me. Twice. Got a replacement N6 last week and I was letting all the OTAs go through before unlocking the bootloader and rooting. When I got the 6.0 update notification I let it download. After rebooting it didn't update and when I checked system update it saif I was up to date despite still being on 5.1.1. Then, for fun, after returning my original Nexus to stock I decided to let the 6.0 update download. After rebooting I was still on 5.1.1 and again it said I was up to date. Very weird. I got impatient and flashed the factory images.

I'm stock, and i'm not sure about my first message, but I'm positive that "very stock" is an auto-correct fail...
I phone to Google android help yesterday, and a guy told me something like "s-h1t happens" more polite though, and that I should wait for another notification... let's hope.

Happened to me as well. Once the ota is downloaded, give time to the phone to restart itself in recovery, it takes about 10 mintutes to go into recovery and dont interfere with soft reset.

turn on your wifi, connect to wifi, then check if you are up to date.

Thank you for the tip. Maybe I didn't wait because no message told me to... Lesson learned.
So you had a second ota notification? How long after the first one who failed?

Go to Settings / About / Send feedback ; tell them you haven't recieved MArshallow OTA, that's how i got my 6.0 ota for the second time without waiting hours.

That may have been the October security download. After getting Marshmallow on my N5 and N9 weeks before, I got that update notice, downloaded it, rebooted and noticed the old Lollypop boot animation. I thought the update didn't get applied and never got another notification. I later ran Stagefright Detector and noticed that the two latest CVEs were remediated. So I'm still waiting for Android 6 for my Nexus 6.

Thank you for your input.
I'm not sure it's related to the secrity update though, because I was already up to date on this matter (LMY48T) , ain't I ?

I went from LYZ28J to LYZ28K with that update. I believe T-Mobile and Sprint are on different forks of Lollypop.

Do you have a custom recovery and/or rooted? If so, the OTA fails. The reminder will probably come back in a day or so.
Same thing happened to me. I received the notice literally seconds after rooting and flashing custom recovery. I tried it anyway for ****s and grins, and it failed of course. After rebooting post failure, mine also stated it was up to date.
I did it the hard way, flashed system and radio using fastboot. All up to date now. :good:
Bone stock no root or anything. Would hard reset work? Or will it reprompt soon?
It's hard to say exactly, but given the image was just posted by Google today, and OTAs are already pushing out, you may see it again tomorrow.
I cleared the framework. Still nothing.
Connect to a charger, it reappear and I was able to update. BTW make sure you on WiFi
So wifi connect to charger and clear framework. Will try. Anyone else have solutions?
Yet to repop update. Still getting the up to date...

Any solutionsnyet? Hard reset phone does nothing btw
Man... Was really hoping to wake up to the update popping up again. No dice.
att nexus 6 failed 5.0.1
Got notification on att nexus 6 completely stock, for the update to 5.0.1, after accepting the install and agreeing for the restart, it never restarted or updated anything. Still on 5.0. Checking for updates shows that i'm "up to date" and attempting to side load the update via ADB fails.
Got the ota update just now. Install was successful.

[Q] Received OTA but cancelled and no OTA now (Update: received it)

[Q] Received OTA but cancelled and no OTA now
Hi, I have the Moto G XT1063. Some minutes ago I received the OTA for Lollipop 22.21.25.en.us version . I started to download it, but I wanted to grab the link using my PC as hotspot and using Wireshark but when I cancelled it I was told to go to System/Check updates to update it again later, and when I tried to update it again I got the message saying "Yout device is up to date". I tried different Wi-FI networks, USB update via Motorola Device Update but no update found.
Did this happened to any of you? Could you resolve it? How?
Thank you!
I got the OTA notification on my XT1064 earlier today at lunch. I am rooted (TWRP, Xposed, debloted) so I know it would fail anyhow, so I cancelled it...I am counting on the fact that we will have CM or slim for the phone soon.
I had the same thing happen to me for the last update when I was on vacation a few weeks ago. I had spotty hotel WiFi so I decided to cancel and try again later. Still haven't had a second chance.
Wow, WEEKS? I've already waited 6 weeks. I thought I would get the update in a day again but it doesn't look like I will.
I guess we will have to wait until the official version comes. I like how Motorola keeps their phones updated but their way of updating them is horrible and they have really dissapointed me. I hate the rollout being in phases and on top of that when I finally received the OTA after more than a month waiting and tried to update it later I cannot get it anymore! They must be joking! Besides, I don't know why they take so long! What's the mystery Motorola?
They keeping everything in secret god knows why or 2 russian engineers.
Even who is invited to soak test shouldnt talk about the update. I think they hate Europeans, because the difference between the two device (the EU version and the US one) is minimal.

Motorola does the same stage rollout update methods as Google, although personally I find Google to be much worse.
They do this to steady the flow of updates (to save their servers some stress), and to catch early bugs that are noticed by the first or second 'pool' of users.
Apple does this right in my opinion. Once an update is pushed, every single supported iOS device can update immediately.
Patience. We just need patience
It's only software...
Found a solution!
The same thing happened with me when we get the first sw update (stock launcher - Google Now launcher) I tried a lot but I was not able to update it. After 2 months I did a factory reset & then tried to do a system update & it worked I again got an option to do software update!

Sorry but I don't find what you've said as a solution. I definately don't believe that waiting 2 months after you received the update is a solution. I think that you got the OTA for a second time.
I will not do any factory reset: doing a factory reset DOES NOT do anything. In fact it changes an unique Google ID that Motorola uses to update their mobiles phones and could actually reduce your chances to receive the OTA. This was explained by a Google engineer- So for anyone reading this DO NOT FACTORY RESET your phone. Let's just wait; we are already in the batch-
You all can force OTA.
Go to settings => Apps => All => Find google service framework.
Clear cache and data of it, stop the service & then reboot the phone. Then again try to check for update.
Do it couple of times if did not work on 1st try.

NO! That's actually the same as doing a factory reset or even worse. It's a myth proved wrong. Just google "google engineer OTA" and you'll see how the rollout is done. I can't post links because I'm new here.

Thanks for letting me know, that was an interesting read.
Finally I got it today. It didn't show up as a notification but I checked for updates and Lollipop 5.0.2 was there! Jumped from 4.4.4 to 5.0.2 (412.3 MB). It's very nice. I believe Motorola is rolling it out officially since it showed up in the System updates check.

Wait... So you're saying since I rooted my phone with TWRP I have to then not accept the update and THEN wait even MORE? How can I use it now? i.e. is there anyway of reverting it to where I can use the update.

AT&T Software update as of 7/9/15 - 146.75MB

Not sure what this is yet. Non rooted, stock image.
5.1.1?? Will report back...
Not 5.1.1

Let us know if you see any changes.
Update downloaded.

This is getting ridiculous, we need an update from 5.0.2, the memory issues I'm dealing with even on XtreStoLite are almost unbearable
Exactly and as updates for 5.1 come out for other carriers we get updates for random att crap that are almost a month old

They know because it says on the Ping Pong Root thread not to update for anything past May 15th as the method for root has been patched
I'm curious if there are any other undocumented changes besides the 2 official changes listed earlier. It feels like a fairly big patch for a fix to an phone location and a kernel security fix.

AT&T Software Update is the main one, but there are a few others - I don't have an AT&T ROM on mine right now to help out, but it's been posted a few times already (I think I even posted those once)
Just freeze att software update. Then it can't even run so no downloads. I got lucky I clicked on update after reading it in Android central but didn't want to install it. Postponed couple of times but somehow it automatically loaded the update process. I was like sh#t. When it booted up it said a problem updating. And then I blocked the updater. My root almost gone lol

Why is my Nexus 6 not receiving updates?

I've just taken my phone out of box, this is October 2015, and the moment I opened the phone first it started overheating and second I checked for updates and it says "software upto date".
The software is stuck at 5.0 and I don't know why I'm not receiving a single update when it's the time people are getting Android M. I've a Nexus 5 too and it's up to date to Marshmallow while this one is still stuck at 5.0 Lollipop.
I guess this has got to do something with the OTA feature and I want to fix this instead of flashing OS manually. So please tell me what to do now.
Till now after many Google searches I did twice reset of my phone and cleared data cache everything of Google Services Framework, but still nothing is helping.
Just 1 day old nonrooted nothing ever did, everything's from my side fine, just not understanding what to do.
Please please help me soon, I'm regretting buying nexus 6 now!

I've already mentioned while others are at 6.0, I'm not going anywhere ahead of 5.0

Where did you buy your phone from? Are you sure it is not running a custom ROM? Is the bootloader locked?
Keep the phone connected to the internet (WiFi or cellular data), and sign into your Google Account, and wait another day. It may take a day or two to get update notification.
Edit - depending on your build#, you can download the OTA files and sideload them using ADB (don't need to unlock bootloader if that is a concern), or the faster option would be to just unlock the bootloader, and flash the latest factory image.
im on my 3rd day on my nexus.. but im not losing hope.. im still waiting for the ota.. its on 5.1 lmy47d...
So here is something funny. I was waiting and waiting for 6.0 on my nexus 6 for days. Never came. I have friends that have the same phone on the same carrier and they had already received their updates. So frustration and being impatient had gotten the best of me and I decided i was going to side load the update. In order to do so you need to unlock the boot loader which will wipe all of your data, EVERYTHING. When the phone rebooted completely wiped i went through the initial set up and it wasn't 5 min later the 6.0 update came rolling in like no big deal. WTF. I don't know why it wouldn't find it on its own but i wouldn't. Needless to day that is what I did and ended up getting it in a round about way. Maybe give that a try if you get to impatient and at that point if it doesn't show up just side load it. Hope this helps
Same, stuck on 5.1 LMY47D
google gives us factory images for a reason. if you arent patient enough to wait for an ota, just flash a factory image yourself, instead of starting threads about how you arent getting an ota. whats the point of a thread about you not getting an ota?

Sideloading the OTA using "ADB sideload" doesn't require you to unlock the bootloader.
Unlocking the bootloader is needed if you choose to flash the factory image file instead of the OTA file

Well I'm damn impatient, if I'd 5.1.1 and waited for 6.0 I'd have definitely had some patience, but waiting from 5.0 doesn't make sense.
Anyways to the point, after listening to your story, I tried same thing, clearing cache and reset from recovery mode, but still it didn't help
Hope there's some other resolution to this now.
I suspect it was your post that I responded to, at another forum - but you have two options really
1. Unlock bootloader (wipes data), and flash latest image
2. ADB Sideload OTAs one after the other in the right sequence (see http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6/general/ref-nexus-6-stock-ota-urls-t2906493 for OTA URLs) - check your current build and choose a path to get to the build you want
I am having the same problem.
I am having the same problem. Have you tried resetting the phone and starting it without the sim?

Nexus 6 Stuck at Lollipop5.0 Build Number LRX210

Got my nexus 6 two days back.
But out of the box it was running Android Lollipop 5.0. and the build number is LRX210.
I did all the setup, updated all apps.. and when i went to software updates and when i click search for upgrades, it shows that system is up to date... but it is at Lollipop 5.0.
Shouldnt it get 5.0.1/5.1.1.. and then receive update to Android6.0?
Please Help.. I freaking out.
Edit- got the 6.0 update after a few days..!!yeah!
Got mine todat and also on 5.0 and buildnumber LRX210 and also doesnt update. no idea why but it just doesnt. Its either waiting for it to decide its time to update or do the update manually
it takes time to update, usually. sometimes it comes right away, but thats relatively rare.
Got mine yesterday as well... Same issue..

I waited for two weeks before I gave in and flashed the factory image. Constantly checking for the update does nothing and i do not believe it will harm your chances. Nexus devices are among the easiest devices to upgrade manually. I would suggest using wugfresh's root toolkit or (if you are familiar with ADB and Fastboot) flash them manually
PS: I had a problem while flashing with the toolkit unlike many others :angel:, So go manual if it does not work
Sad...
As I have just bought it.. Won't it be good if I go to Motorola store and show them my device??
! Ur kidding abt the slows the update thing ryt..??
Coz I must have checked for software updates like a thousand times lol
well in order to learn about adb and fastboot i first used fastboot to restore to stock android 5 and then went all the way to 5.1.1 using adb sideload. Now the phone is hungry and is having some elctrified meal and when he is done with that i will update it to android 6. Took a little time to get here but now i do know how to use fastboot and adb. And how to get into recovery..for me it is power, then volume down followed by volume up..any other key combo doesnt work
I got mine a few days back and it did not update so i flashed myself its a bit of a mission with the OTAs, next time i will go with the full factory rom from google

Issue analyzed by them?

there isn't one here..i bought the phone online with a mobile contract. Besides, the phone is working fine, only problem is not updating by itself.
But could also be a google update server problem.
I got the phone rooted after going back to 5.1.1 stock with factory image and now looking for a good custom rom.
Help me out then..
I'm on 5.0 build number LRX210
Can i flash directly the 6.0 factory image or i have to flash each update?

i flashed directly to the 6.0 factory image using this tutorial http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6/general/guide-flash-factory-images-nexus-6shamu-t2954008
I used method 2
Method 2 for me also worked.

i dont know..maybe something in the rom that locks it. Might need to wait for answer from someone with more knowledge on this matter
Update.. yeah!!!
Received an update to 5.1 from 5.0
After tht booted up my shamu and 5.1.1 update was already waiting.. after it 3-4 small updates arrived one after the other.. and finally the most coveted 6.0 update arrived..
Marshmallow seems great...!!!!
