There are quite some ways to get the latest Android N Developer Preview 3 build on your Nexus series and Android One devices. If you are on the latest Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow firmware, then the most efficient way is the OTA sign up program for the Android N OTA notification. Similarly, if for some reason your device doesnโ€™t notify you of the Preview 3 NPD35K update, then grab the OTA images from below and follow the instructions from the tutorial with the adb sideload method or the stock recovery method. Moreover, you can simply grab the factory images and flash it using the tutorial from below. The factory image will perform a clean install and restore your Nexus device to completely stock with Android N. These update files come officially from Googleโ€™s developer page. The images are live for most devicesย and we will be updating more as they are available. So stay tuned.
