OK guys, now that these pups are starting to ship, I need your help!

When you get your new Nexus 9 in the mail, please fire it up and DO NOT accept an OTA that comes out of the box. Please go and get the Android build #, the values of ro.build.date.utc and ro.product.name from build.prop, and the bootloader version (which you'll need to reboot into bootloader mode in order to do). Once you have that info, please post it here so we can get this thread started!

Then, after that, if there's an OTA available out of the box, please get the URL of the ZIP file from adb logcat. Once you do that, feel free to apply said OTA update and enjoy your tablet!

Thanks in advance for your help! If you need any help rebooting into bootloader mode, or grabbing OTA URLs from logcat, let me know.

The review N9 units already got their first ota from LRX16F -> LRX21L.

We need someone to connect wireshark/etherial/fiddler/<your preferred network sniffer> and grab the url for the initial ota when retail devices ship.

While they may not get that specific ota by the time it's generally out, there is very likely going to be an ota for something by then.

Lollipop setup is a little different than past versions.
Step 1 - Choose language
Step 2 - Login to WiFi
Step 3 - "Downloading" updates! No choice in the matter. And it's before logging in to the device for the first time.

#3 has been explained as to why google now does this and i think its a good idea.

Don't Set up Wi-Fi immediately

Just unplug your router from the Internet

Hindsight really is 20/20, isn't it? Of course, when I set mine up at 10:30 this morning I didn't know this would happen.... Better luck to the next guy.?

So once the forced OTA happened, what build number abd bootloader version are you on now?

Are we sure that's what's actually on the device though?

I'll wait for @USBhost to do verify his bootloader version and build number from his device.

Thank you, sir! If anyone can find a way to get the bootloader and build number of the original shipping firmware prior to the forced OTA, please post that info as well. Until then, I'm going to start the thread at LRX21L. :good:

Unplug the Internet from your wifi router, that way you can connect to wifi workout being in the Internet.
