Your Nexus Device Can Get Android 6.0 Marshmallow Now Michael Kwan October 5, 2015 News Good news! No, Top Gear UK fans, I don’t have anything to tell you about the Dacia Sandero. What I do have to tell all the Nexus-rocking Google fans in the audience is that you can now get your digital hands on Android 6.0 Marshmallow, just as predicted. The Android 6.0 update is now available for the Nexus 5 (2013), Nexus 6, Nexus 7 (2013) and the Nexus 9, as well as the Nexus Player. That’s the good news. Before you scramble over to the “System updates” section of your settings menu, though, you’ll need to realize that this initial push of Android 6.0 is only coming by way of a manual installation. If you’re familiar with how to go about doing that sort of thing, you can hop on over to the Google Developers page to find the Android 6.0 factory images and and binaries that you’ll need. If you’re not as familiar and want to give it a go, Google’s got flashing instructions for you too. If you’re willing to exercise a little bit of patience, however, you’ll find that the over-the-air updates to the above named Nexus devices should be on their way with the next little while. There’s no official schedule out just yet, but it shouldn’t be too long now. I guess you can keep hitting “check for update” if you don’t want to wait for the notification to pop up. I know I will. In either case, you’ll probably get Android 6.0 before your new Nexus 5X and Nexus 6P arrive on your doorstep. Via Droid-Life Share This With The World!
