LMY47M to LMY47Z - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm on ATT running the T-Mobile build LMY47M, I've always been on ATT I just did the swapped Sim card to trick it into the 5.1 update.
So my first question is, have I been taking off the ATT update path now?
If yes, do I need to load the factory LMY47Z in order to get to 5.1.1 or wait for an ATT OTA image?
Thanks for all your help.

There is already a Factory Image for 5.1.1 of both AT&T and T-Mobile. You can flash your AT&T Factory image to return to Stock 5.1.1.

I haven't seen an ATT factory image. On the google developers site it has a 47Z for sprint and USC, and a 28E for T-Mobile.

AT&T is receiving the Z build.

Oh am sorry, got confused between Sprint and ATT. The Sprint (7Z) version is International image so I am pretty sure that would be fine to flash. I am not sure how the carrier OTA would differ much from the International version since I don't use Sprint or ATT.

OK thanks. Do you think being on the M build takes me out of the ATT OTA loop?
Otherwise I was going to try wugfresh to flash the Z build.

If you check the OTA url thread, you see that Z comes from D, E and I but not M.

OK thank you, I'll flash Z tonight then.

The *network* has nothing to do with it.
Google trickles the updates out over a period of several WEEKS.
You either wait for it to hit your SERIAL NUMBER, or you download it from the google factory images page.

I have a question for you. Would you be able to pull the OEM partition and send me it? I had AT&T n6 and didn't think to back it up. I'm all root and custom roms

Which Factory image did you sideload? Theres a LMY47D and LMY47E... Also did you have any issues sideloading it on the ATT N6?

I also have a AT&T Nexus running 5.1 factory image. I flashed the D version. Its preloaded with 4 AT&T apps that you can delete. Seems smooth and the towel root method works with no issues. I flashed VIA fastboot method.

I started with D. Then flashed E image. I could not see any difference in radio performance (nor anything else for that mater). Back to D.
I'm on the e build the radio is faster on the e build on at&t in my area,plus they just posted a newer factory image its an I build

Put a VZW sim in a n6 with LMY47M, expect an OTA\?

Will an ota push to put the n6 on a verizon build like LMY47E if its currently on LMY47M and I put a vzw sim in it? Everything works now, just curious if it'll come automatically or if i need to load it manually.

Probably not. If you're not on E, when Verizon finally releases the OTA, you won't get it.
Thanks. Decided to unlock and flash lmy47e to avoid any issues.
Hi,
Can you please tell me how did you flash lmy47e?
I tried doing that with wugs toolkit, but it just hangs.
Thanks.

Properly, without a toolkit.

You need to use fastboot.

Verizon LMY47Z factory image?

I'm right in assuming there will be a Verizon specific factory image at some point, correct? I got the OTA notification yesterday, but don't want to go back to stock just to update. And the LMY47Z image that's on Google's page obviously says "For Sprint, USC only."
Thanks

Disregard what Google has titled the image. That is the build Verizon users are getting via OTA.

47Z is being pushed to numerous other devices (and used successfully) in spite of Google's label. AT&T, and numerous international users. Several VZW users also report satisfactory performance with 47Z.
Ah, thank you to you both.

At&t 5.1.1 ota

Hello all, I am an AT&T nexus 6 user. I am unlocked and rooted. I of course tried the OTA, didn't expect it to work since I'm rooted and it of course didn't work. I checked the factory images and there are only sprint and T-mobile versions of the 5.1.1. My question is can I flash the T-mobile version and have a functioning device? I'm sick of this system notification showing up every day telling me that I need to update. Thanks for the heads up

You can flash anyone you like. They'll all work with various results. AT&T users, however, are getting LMY47Z as an OTA. Ignore Google's labels.

Google finally changed the image label to "5.1.1 (All carriers except T-Mobile US) (LMY47Z)".

Flashing factory image on verizon n6 with T-Mobile sim

The other day I bought a nexus 6 used and didn't know what carrier it was from.. Well I dug around in the settings and found out that it was Verizon. The phone worked fine with my T-Mobile sim just like it should but when I tried flashing 5.1.1 Verizon build lmy48i it just would not flash right... It would just bootloop and nexus root toolkit said everything failed to flash but the bootloader. But I tried again after taking the sim out and it worked first try. Everything is okay, but why does a sim make so much of a difference? Should I be flashing T-Mobile img's?

First, you shouldn't use toolkits unless you already know how to use fastboot.
Second, use fastboot and flash the latest T-Mobile factory image if you're using your device on T-Mobile.

Thanks for the super quick reply, I am familiar with fasboot and doing it manually but I'm lazy that's all. It just makes it so simple. thanks for letting me know which image to use. I just had to set up the apn settings to get my data to work right. Will I get otas if I flash the T-Mobile factory image and use their service?

As long as you're 100% stock and using a T-Mobile sim, you'll be able to get and install T-Mobile OTA's.
LMY48I is not a T-Mobile version. You want LYZ28E or LYZ28J.
