6.0.1 sideload error

[iCurtisG]

Hey guys this is my first time trying to sideload an OTA using wugfresh I've searched around and couldn't find a solution to this error I'm getting. Basically once I click sideload OTA I get an error "Dependency not available you will have to wait til Google to release the factory image package to boot stock recovery" . Has anyone else received this error if so How'd you fix it. Any links to related forums/ articles would be greatly appreciated

Looking at the shot, you didn't have NRT detect the version. It's showing *.*.*

Plug your phone in and restart NRT and let it detect you Android version, out modify your device manually to the build you have.

Well my build # is lmy48Z which doesn't show up when I plug it in to auto detect

NRT is a great tool. But I suggest to flash the factory image manually using fastboot. We can't get to know what happened if something go wrong if it's a toolkit, but for sure you know what you did if you were doing it manually.

Use this link to flash manually - http://androidforums.com/threads/guide-how-to-flash-a-nexus-factory-image-manually.706533/

Download latest factory images here - https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images?hl=en

Trust me, you won't go back to toolkit once you start this

I second that. Fastboot really is simple - don't be intimidated. It's not too difficult.

Will I have to wipe to use fastboot?

Nope. Not required.
Don't flash userdata, that's all.

OK great I'll try that when I leave work does anyone have a link to the walk through?

If you've not unlocked your bootloader, your phone will get wiped (during the bootloader unlock, which is required to flash factory images)
