June Security Update Arrives For Nexus Devices; OTA and Factory Images


One of the reasons to purchase a Nexus device is the quick update promise. With frequent updates that add in critical patches, you are sure to own a device that belongs to the uppermost brackets in Android with regards to safety from recent vulnerabilities.



So if you own a supported Nexus device and are itching to flash something new, the June security update with Android version 6.0.1 Marshmallow has rolled out. This update bumps up the build number of the Pixel C to MXC89H, the Nexus 6P and the Nexus 5X to MTC19V and the rest of the supported Nexus devices to MOB30M. You get the option of flashing via either the factory images or the OTA update zips.

If you are interested, the security bulletin for the month of June can be found here.
A few more points with regards the update: the update for the Nexus 6P has the same bootloader and radio as previous versions. Also, the Nexus 10 is no longer being granted the privilege of security updates, as it falls outside of Google’s support window as of last month.


Have you flashed the security update? Let us know in the comments below!

New Information About Google’s Allo Has Emerged

A week ago, reports emerged after a Redditor that had claimed to be a ‘third level beta tester’ for Google revealed that Messenger will be gradually phased out and that both Allo and Duo will be default apps on Android 7.0. It was also said that Hangouts will be phased out on mobile. XDA-Developers has since been contacted by a trusted source close to the matter, who wished to remain anonymous. We endorse the veracity of the claim given the source’s relationship to both XDA and Google. This source has revealed several key pieces of information about the future of  Google’s messaging apps and the claims made on Reddit: There is no such thing as a third level beta tester. There are Googlers, trusted testers, and friends and family. Neither Hangout nor Messenger will be going anywhere. Allo only supports Allo messages at this time, there is no cross-app messaging, Google Voice or SMS support. Whether you’re a Hangouts and Messenger fan or no...

OnePlus confirms no Nougat update for the OnePlus 2

After much speculation and wishful thinking from owners, OnePlus has officially confirmed to Android Authority that the Nougat update will not be delivered for the OnePlus 2. The refusal to update comes after promises of 24 months of update support in the past and an outright assertion from the company last year that the OnePlus 2 would get Android N. Nevertheless, OnePlus told that “customer service has been telling customers this for a little while” and that “we’re happy about what we’re doing with software. We already confirmed Android O will come for the OnePlus 3 and 3T. So [no Nougat for the OnePlus 2] isn’t new and we think people were aware of it.” This news shouldn’t actually be a surprise to anyone. A  post on XDA-Developers  back in May proves that the company has been informing customers of the OnePlus 2’s end-of-life situation, but only when specifically asked. If you’re keeping track, this means t...
