Nexus 6 Recovery Flashable Radios (Unlocked Bootloader Only)

Q9Nap · Mar 27, 2015

This is an archive of all radios released for shamu (excluding developer preview builds) in recovery flashable format.
All radios are compatible with all variants of Nexus 6, and some have reported better reception using alternate radios.
I have also added the latest bootloader in recovery flashable format.

Usage is very simple:

Copy update zip to internal storage
Reboot into recovery
Install zip
Profit!

Nice work. This is very needed for many and a convenience. Now please pull the radios and make them recovery flashable. No easy task. I looked at the radio.imgs and there are many parts to the Nexus 6. But looks like your the one who can figure it out. Again thanks, this is great.

Thanks for the heads up; the e build is the only one that doesn't have an ota available, and all the other otas have identical radios.
Will have to make a new one.

Finally! I was having troubles with custom ROMs and have been waiting for the M image to be available. I do not want encryption, what should I do?

Edit 2: All is good. I missed stock a lot, thanks for your work!

Seriously? The OP posted two links, I'm pulling 5 MB/sec on each (WiFi mode), 1+MB/sec on LTE. No interruptions, download complete.

It seems that one in your predicament would to be thankful that these are here, take counsel of patience, and exercise a bit of resourcefulness such as a jaunt to your local Starbucks or other free WiFi locale.

For no force encryption, please grab the beta zip in the development section that is specifically for ALL rom flashes...it'll make any kernel no force encrypt every time, just flash that zip last...you'll find it near the end of that section.

You don't need a computer to flash these, and you should be able to get them onto your device without issue.

Yes, I understand that you can discern my innate level of serenity based on my words...if my reaction seems off-putting to you, well then I'm quite pleased.

You asked for a 2nd mirror.

What you've requested is for a fellow user to download one of these builds, upload it again to their personal storage, make certain that they have a clean download and in turn a clean upload, all so you can grab that which the OP has taken a great deal of time and care to create, post, personally host, and freely give to this community.

In a word, your feckless request is brazen and unreasonable.
