    Bah, was really hoping to see the Nexus 5 available for N

    Although not officially available rest assured the dev community will make an N rom for the N5.

    The effort of waiting for the notification on my Nexus 9!:pac:

    It's installing right now, wondering how the performance will be this time around as Google have said it should be much better.

    As long as your stock (not custom rom), these factory images can be flashed without wiping data.

    If you enroll in the beta program and then wish to revert, this will cause a loss of data.

    I flashed the image's and not on the beta program, so I don't get ota updates for it.

    No update for Nexus 6 yet. The previous has been pretty stable for me.

    Mine arrived on my N6 this morning. They fixed the bug when turning off WIFI or Bluetooth from the status bar. Can't see much else

    Went in to check if there was a new Easter Egg and found something strange.

    Settings / About / click Android Version a couple of times and you get the N.
    Click and hold on the N and a little cat emoji appears.

    Had to google the rest:
