Tmobile Nexus 6 News..

If you're on Windows, check out WugFresh's "Nexus Root Toolkit"..(I'm not sure if it can be WINEed or not; I've not tried the tool on Linux directly). There is an easy way to unroot/restore to stock and the toolkit downloads images for just about any build you could wish. There's a thread on Android Development about the toolkit, and there's even a special M build image linked in a post from WugFresh himself that can be used for this kind of thing. This may be the easiest way to go about it.

I use the toolkit now. I was having issues with that build but will try again thanks!

What image did you use to revert to stock? Can't find a M build image

I just went from 5.1E down to 5.01 -> 5.1M and am now updating this file using mainly info from this link.

On my Mac I did have to unplug and plug the USB cable in the phone several times when it lost connection.

Hope that helps.

I've been trying to sideload the OTA posted for the past 2 hours now with no luck...

Flashed fresh LMY47M from WugFresh (as well as from 5.01 to 5.1 OTA from T-Mobile) and I am still getting an error:

"system partition has unexpected contents"
"E:Error in /sideload/package.zip"
"(Status 7)"

I am completely lost here, I've tried several times now to reflash the stock system.img and even just reflashed the entire image with no luck. Am I missing something here?

Are you rooted?

 

[khoikn]

Nope.

I've done a full wipe of my phone several times over now. I was rooted prior though with a custom ROM/Franco kernal...

Hmm, it sounds like it could also be a bad download. It isn't liking something in the hash. That is the error when /system has su files or something in it. The MD5 hash has to match exactly to what its expecting. I think a bad download can cause that too. I didnt have issues and I did the exact same thing. I was running CM12.1, went back to 5.0.1 and sideload the M OTA then sideload the E ota.

I'll redownload the OTA that was posted a little earlier on here and give it another shot.

UPDATE: Same error going through still :/

Dam ... try doing the images from the Nexus Factory Images page and manually flash it. IE fastboot flash recovery recovery.img etc. And when you get to the system.img use the -w flag to wipe the device clean. I hope you get it, the wifi calling works REALLY well. Better than I have seen on other devices. It does call handoffs going from wifi to cell flawlessly.

I'll redownload 5.0.1 (LRX22C) and give it another shot with just the default images. I did it earlier but I can try again. I've been using WugFresh this entire time but I can try giving fastboot a go.

Seriously! That's why I've been doing my best here (and staying up most of the night) to get this done. I haven't been able to make calls in my own apartment since owning the Nexus 6 so WiFi Calling is really my only bet here...

UPDATE: Nope. Tried doing it the old fashioned way and the OTA is still not wanting to be accepted. Gonna call it a night...

Can you post a screenshot of the build?

All Good!

I followed these instructions as well, and it worked perfectly. I may have taken the "long" route, but here's what worked for me. I was on Rooted M that wasn't allowing an OTA to LYZ28E. I followed those instructions in the OP of the t3060300 thread to get back to Stock M. Then I adb sideloaded the OTA zip from earlier in this thread, rebooted system. Once all was upgraded, went back and reloaded twrp, let twrp reinstall supersu, update supersu from play store and then reboot. So now I'm on LYZ28E with WiFi Calling and rooted - with no data wipe.

How's the WiFi calling working? Thanks

Thanks man! Just sideloaded without any problems.

I've made 2 calls with it so far, one to another cell(T-Mobile) and a land line, the call quality on both are amazing, pretty close to VoLTE. I also sent a SMS and MMS using Textra, both sent without any issues!!!

Is there a chance of anyone making the ota a flashable zip? Or is is it too difficult from the boot loader being updated or things of that nature? I'm not actually sure the boot loader got updated but I looked at the zip fairly quickly and see boot loader IMG. Thanks

Is the WiFi calling functionality baked into the settings?

 

[rdgerken]

Yes.

 

[rasengan82]

Although I'm on TMobile and happy about WiFi calling, I'm wondering how many builds 5.1.1 will have for different carriers. I hope all these different builds don't backfire later.

 

[oldblue910]

Can someone who has flashed LYZ28E please tell me what the new bootloader version is? Just reboot into the bootloader and it'll be right there on the screen. I'd do it myself, but my Nexus 6 is on Sprint, so I'm waiting for LMY47Z, which will be rolling out on the 26th. Thanks!

I sideloaded ok and got back to my homescreen. How do I know i'm actually using WIFI calling and not LTE?
