Nexus 5 upgrading

Kennyeth · 8th October 2015, 06:04

Turned my Nexus 5 on this morning and there it was, system update available, 6.0 (Marshmallow)

Nothing for my N7 yet.
EDIT: Don`t start this is you have to rush out to work ??? it did say can take up to 45 minutes.
Mine is still working from when I first posted, 405MB in all.

Got sick of waiting and sideloaded, not much to report yet (see the easter egg is VERY similar). Will play with it the next week or so

I did think of doing that, but for future I am leaving in stock status.
Rooting and unrooting to get up dates, I was thinking that one time I`m going to mess it up and brick it.
I don`t run third party Rom`s so I don`t think it matters for me.
Only noticed one app not working and that is "App of the Day" where you can get paid for apps for free, some quite good too.

No root required, but you do need an ota file rather than the normal dev one and know how to use adb in dos. No wiping off the handset either with sideloading

. Battery seems improved with doze.

I`m sticking with Stock Android Shawn, I did have my Tablet and phone rooted but when that "scare" about that bug (forgot name) my devices were not updating and it was a pain unrooting just to get the fix.
