Wo! I think there are often issues WITH OTAs regardless. I remember my father in laws n7 would refuse to install the update but mine would be fine lol.
Guess you got it only today you probably haven't installed that much in there so I'd say no to a factory reset. It might worth flashing it manually, getting the update from the oneplus website.
Or just rom it.
It shouldn't have any problems updating. Maybe because your too far back in update process? Maybe OTA has errors? Could be a list of reasons. I don't think your doing anything wrong at all.

Wifi not working after ota update

Hi,
I have a rooted I9295, after the last ota update (2 weeks ago) i noticed that my wifi stopped working and i get an annoying message "Prevention Information". I think the update failed on the radio part which is causing this.
I'm currently on android 4.2.2 with baseband version MF5 and ML3 buildnumber.
can anyone point to a fix ?
thx !

I'm not sure if this is the right modem, but it could be. Hopefully somebody else will reply with a proper solution.
The latest OTA update was for 4.3. Looks like you didn't update at all, but the process borked something up on your phone. Maybe a factory reset will fix your phone. Yeah, major pain, but had you gotten the 4.3 update you'd really be screwed since going back would not be an option and you would have lost root.

Unfortunately we're not so lucky in Europe, still no 4.3 update.
The latest OTA update we had here added some more Samsung bloatware and a nice message warning you to close the flappy charge port after charging.
I had a rooted 4.2.2, and i think that caused the problem.
Going to try to update the radio with Odin.

Did this work out for you? I'm having the same issue.

So i ended up doing this:
First i flashed the entire phone (since i couldn't find just the modem)
http://honai-android.blogspot.nl/2014/01/how-to-update-galaxy-s4-active-i9295.html
After that i rooted the phone again
http://androidxda.com/root-samsung-galaxy-s4-active-gt-i9295
And that fixed the issues.
Everything works fine again, and i didn't loose any data in the process.

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...

Same thing is happening on my Nexus 7 2013. I've tried it 5 different times.

Same here... fully stock and unrooted Nexus 6 with VZW sim. Got an update notification. Tried to update and the notification just went away and now says I'm up-to-date even thought the update never installed... still on 5.0.
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.

New Nexus 6 with no available updates (stuck on old 5.1)

Hello guys. Just bought 2 days a go a new Nexus 6. Blue with 32Gb, unlocked.
Tottaly sealed, broke the seal myself, straight from Google.
But the phone says it is updated, and finds no new update. Im on LMY47D with Android 5.1 and I dont even receive 5.1.1
Tried factory reset without SIM Card, cleaning Framework and reboot without card, everything. To no avail.
Any idea what is going on? Shouldnt I get at least Android 5.1.1?
PS: I know I can sideload it, but still, something is clearly wrong, and I would like very much to sort it out.
Thank you very much.
Same issue here. Only I'm on 5.0 and can't find any update and I would prefer to not sideload already.
if you want your phone to check for an update, you have to be on WiFi. if in youre on network instead, itll always say up to date.
I'm on wifi. It still shows no update.
Same situation, on Wifi offcourse.

Try a factory reset, then remove your carrier SIM and power up on WiFi. My bet is that your N6 will start churning through OTAs in sequence. Not sure that you will get all the way to Marshmallow 6.0, because that last OTA is still being rolled out.
Already did it... waste of time, no updates
If your not willing to simply download and flash the images from googles website, that is your choice... but there is nothing to do but wait.
Hi Guys I am in the same boat, brand new n6 on 5.0.1 and saying up todate . In uk and carrier is Virgin if that helps.
Mal
Something strange is definately happening with Google update servers...
same dilemma and same version as op..
Personally I was like you all. I got my nice shiny new n6 from verizon (free upgrade...) Got it home kept pressing check for updates. Tried all the clearing app data from frameworks and all that.
But in the end I sideloaded it. I documented it over on the OTA url post. It is not that hard, just need some time. If you don't want to wait it might be your only option.
Total time invested was probably 1.5 hours. Downloaded all the files to my laptop and started using WUGFresh.
Stop waiting and update manually? It's not difficult, you can even save your userdata by not flashing it. There are different (and possibly easier) ways to install an update other than sideloading. especially when you can skip all the OTAs and flash directly to 6.0.
No need for a tool kit and it won't take much longer than the time it takes for you to download the factory image and extract the files.
The point is that there might be something wrong with Google's OTA servers.
Or maybe something is wrong about these phones ?

Thats my point exactly. What if theres something wrong with the phone?
Google should clarify why old updates are not being delivered... not even questioning 6.0, but 5.1.1
same issue on new nexus 6 of my girlfriend. I manually sideloaded up to 5.1.1 (it's the international version) and now she's waiting for 6.0

Why is Google not delivering OTA updates to these N6 owners ?
Sent from my VS985 4G using Tapatalk
Because there were a couple of security updates between 5.1.1 and 6.0 (as far AS I remember on my N6) and because I want to be sure OTA works!
This issue is becoming more and more coomon. Lot's of people complaining on several forums about this issue.
At least its easy to see something is clearly wrong with the OTA's, since no one is getting any. There is people stuck on 5.0, 5.0.1, 5.1, etc whichever came preinstalled stays without updates.

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!

seriously?? your regretting it ??
you need patience...

I think I've mentioned that I'm not even getting 5.1, okay not even 5.0.1
Can someone please understand the level of problem I'm facing?
I've already mentioned while others are at 6.0, I'm not going anywhere ahead of 5.0
Please help!
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

I've bought it from an online retailer Flipkart in India.
I'm sure there's no changes made in phone and it's original and is as a new nexus 6 should be. Just this software update is causing me problems

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?

rooted LS991ZV6 and OTA

was wondering, if im rooted on v6 (5.1) and looking to ota to marshmallow (6.0) can i ota without error? since sprint came out with ZLTE its in the update from what i understand. friend got replacement yesterday of same phone. seems to be quicker and better signal. or anyone recommend a 6.0 rom?
i do plan on doing the wifi teather before updating. is that trick still working?
second, if not worth it how easy to downgrade again? last time i rooted it was very different than just using odin or a single app. has the rooting method changed at all? i was able to upgrade and then downgrade again, but was very uncomfortable doing it, and i have flashed a few phones in my day.
thanX in advance.

Unless something has changed u cannot update no root available after zv6. And if u get to zvb i believe u cannot downgrade. Ive hd mine on zv6 since day on and will not upgrade. Roots the only thing keeping me from getting rid of this thing
Ive seen a few posts about downgrading from marsh back to lolipop. Unless i was reading it wrong.
But having no root isnt my cup of tea either. Seeing alot about root and the H815.
