I am having trouble sideloading the OTA. The following are the steps I followed.
./adb devices
came back with serial number and device
./adb reboot recovery
Showed Android with a red exclamation mark over it will appear. Held down the power button and press the volume up button, and went straight to an update software screen.
Didn't allow me to do <
Now that you are in the Android system recovery, use the volume down button to highlight apply update from ADB and press the power button to select it. The text on your Nexus' screen will now say that you can send the OTA to the device using adb.>
Then input
./adb sideload [OTA file].zip
said there was no device or emulator
uninstalled, reinstalled driver to composite adb interface
Still nothing. Not sure what why it keeps dropping the device once I go into recovery.
