android 6.0.1

It’s February, so that means it is time for Google to push out this month’s security update to Nexus devices. Already this morning, we are seeing factory images posted for the Pixel C, Nexus 6P, Nexus 5X, Nexus 6, Nexus Player, Nexus 9 (WiFi and LTE), Nexus 5, Nexus 7 (2013, WiFi and Mobile), and Nexus 10. 

The updates are rolling out as Android 6.0.1 build MXB48T for the Pixel C, MMB29U for the Nexus Player, MMB29R for the Nexus 9, and MMB29Q for the Nexus 6P, 5X, 6, 5, and Nexus 7 (2013). The Nexus 10 is getting build LMY49G of Android 5.1.1.

That should mean that over-the-air (OTA) updates will be here shortly.

To grab the factory image file for your device, head over to Google’s site. Here are instructions for flashing a factory image.
