Unlocked version? There are no locked versions of the Nexus 6. Any Nexus is free to wander and play amongst the different carriers freely and without too much resistance (Verizon)

The Nexus 6 with no carrier branding is what I'm calling the "unlocked" version. And on my online account it shows a blank phone silhouette and reads "Nexus 6 Non-VZW" so it's something other than the one you buy from the Verizon store lol

They are all identical inside. A carrier branding doesn't impact when a ota woukd be received. The sim card defines that.

All Nexus 6 phone are unlocked. There are NO locked variants of the Nexus line. Saying unlocked is indirectly implying that there are locked versions of this phone, which there are not.

Yes, it can get confusing when people use terms indiscriminately.
There's a guy in the Samsung forums that kept posting N4 for the Note4. People thought he was talking about the Nexus4.

Actually, I believe some AT&T and Sprint Nexus 6 devices are SIM locked:

I purchased my Nexus 6 from Motorola and it has been running a Verizon SIM since I received it. I had to hard reset it in order to get it to update to 5.1 via OTA a couple of months back. Now it is on LMY47D and hasn't received the OTA update message. I'm really hoping that I won't have to hard reset it again.

Has anyone been able to capture the OTA link for the verizon 5.1.1 update? Im trying to side load the update but I cant because the sprint ota is not compatible with verizons ota from what ive gathered.

You would need to flash Verizon's build that ends with an E . just use the image to flash it

I've seen a couple of posts from users on this forum that have received the OTA from D to Z on Verizon. Don't know how they managed to get it, but I've haven't had any success.

No need to do that. E is just a newer version of 5.1, so the OTA upgrade will get pushed for people on 5.1 D as well. There is this miss conception out there that LMY47E is a VZ specific build and that is simply not true. Google's developer image page clearly shows LMY47E is nothing more than a newer 5.1 build.

Still haven't gotten an update notice on my Nexus 6 that I bought from Motorola and have my Verizon sim installed. I did receive 2 updates to get me to 5.1 when I first activated the phone a week ago. I'm assuming I shouldn't worry just yet?
