Boot up animation after marshmallow update

I received ota update for my Nexus 6 AT&T brand by pulling sim card and doing a factory reset. It updated to 6.0 but the boot up animation remained the same as lollipop . I have all the features of 6.0 and no issues at all except Boot up animation.

But you are wanting the new boot animation right?

In all honesty it really doesn't matter as long as it is running 6.0 and no issues which so far so good. I am just curious why boot up isn't different.

I keep my R1HD as a backup phone. $60 and it runs better than the VivoXL, which I returned, because it sucked. I'm on a Nexus 6P now.

How to update bootloader

How do I update bootloader without returning to stock? I am not talking about firmware. Like on pixel and nexus devices, you just fastbboot flash bootloader.img

Custom ROMs do not touch the bootloader.
Why would you need to update the bootloader?
Are you referring to the boot partition, which contains the kernel and ramdisk and is boot.img, and is included in every custom rom and stock OOS zip?

You could flash just the firmware. See this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/on...ble-firmware-modem-zips-t3816066/post78464468

I said we are NOT talking about firmware. Firmware does not include bootloader updates.

So where do you think you'll find an update of the bootloader?
The stock OOS updates include boot, system, and firmware. The firmware updates are these stock updates minus boot and system.

I understand what you are talking about on nexus 4+5 and galaxy s5 I used to update bootloader only but lack of interest on this device to update only that it seems.
