I'm making this thread to have a centralized location where people can come looking for stock OTAs and flashable monthly security patches which our device gets.

Stock 6.0 MRA58V (Thanks to @AC DC for these)

For White variant : https://r3---sn-85po58p-itqe.gvt1.c...d745d585625bd9c565ce9e80693.s031-full-ota.zip

For Gold variant : https://r3---sn-85po58p-itqe.gvt1.c...587bf89bff5bdaa8b444b398bff.s110-full-ota.zip

Security Patches :

I am putting up the link grabbing procedure for OTA updates here so that anyone can help me keep this index updated

1.When you get the notification, download the OTA but DON'T install it yet.
2. Fire up a terminal, go root, then type :
Code:
bugreport> /sdcard/ota.txt
3. This will take some time (two to three minutes). When that's done, type this in :
Code:
grep system_update /sdcard/ota.txt
4. You should see a similar screen : http://i.imgur.com/9ywII0q.jpg

5. Only common sense is needed from here on :D

NOTE : I manually remove all verifications from each security patch I upload here, so the signatures will be broken.

Security Patches :

WHITE VARIANT
March Security Patch : https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BwL6sFI5X7ahcFJZVENMU3A1ZWs/view?usp=drivesdk

April Security Patch : https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BwL6sFI5X7ahMEt5bXR6U2ZWZUU/view?usp=drivesdk

May Security Patch : https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BwL6sFI5X7ahUHhjYmktSDFwTW8/view?usp=drivesdk

June Security Patch : Google couldn't care

July Security Patch : https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BwL6sFI5X7ahclFHcWhTZnczcnM/view?usp=docslist_api

@aaryan45, if you can contribute links for the Gold variant it'd be great!

HOW TO INSTALL THE FULL MARSHMALLOW OTA CORRECTLY

Google shipped out a buggy updater-script with their marshmallow OTA update so you cannot simply flash it normally without any modifications. You will have to replace it with the one @AC DC provides in his thread here : http://xdaforums.com/lava-pixel-v1/general/how-to-upgrade-to-marshmallow-bypassing-t3315319





HOW TO INSTALL A SECURITY PATCH CORRECTLY

This may not be a question for some people, but there are some *complications* you must keep in mind. I remove ALL checks from the updater script. ALL. I do it to reduce flashing time but this also increases the chance of you ending up in a bootloop. There's only one thing that has been an issue for me as of now, and that's XPOSED. Uninstall it, flash OTA, boot, and install xposed back. In my case I just wiped my system partition, then installed stock 6.0 full OTA, then March and April security patches and it worked. Please make sure to use systemless root whenever possible and REINSTALL it after each OTA or patch.

Bro the update patches you have provided can we simply flash them via twrp???
After our full unroot our pixel v1???
If you're using systemless root, you can restore your stock boot.img and go ahead with the security patches, otherwise it's a full system restore first. Use the full OTA links on the first post to do a full system restore if the need arises.

The updater script has to be replaced only for the OTA 5.1 -> 6.0

The terminal method is to *grab* new links of the security patches that arrive each month. The patches I provide need no changes, just download and flash.

Typing those commands will show you the link from where the update was downloaded, you will have to post that link here so that I can mod the updater script to make it TWRP flashable.

Nice work.
Btw, what's the difference between White and gold variants?

One more question..
Is lava v1 still running on 6.0, there's no 6.0.1 ota?
Thanks for the appreciation! The white and gold variants differ in the button placements, since the gold variant has capacitive touch buttons at the buttom for navigation while the white variant has on screen navigation buttons. The Pixelv1 received the 6.0 OTA, then subsequent security patches upgraded it to 6.0.1 . I'm still waiting for the June patch, if you can go back to stock (I can't, testing out CM13) and see if it arrives. Use the steps in post #2 to get updated to the May security patch (you won't get June OTA without it)
