There has been a lot of questions from unpatient redditors who wants the update as soon as possible. I was one of them. Then i found out I could do it manually. Worked like a carm!
Q: What is a OTA update?
A: The update you eventually will get a notification on your nexus. It stands for "Over the air" update.
Q: When will I get my OTA update?
A: /u/Ali_Gee says:"OTAs are released in batches. 1% of users get it within 24-48 hours, then the remaining 25% get it, and then remaining 50%, remaining 75% and then everyone gets it within a week or two. You really don't need to check for the update more than 2-3 times a day."
Q: is the OTA based on carrier?
A: /u/hiromasaki: "Carrier has no bearing on the die roll that determines if you're in today's batch. Carriers can opt-out/delay updates if they find issues."
Q: What the heck is ADB sideloading?
A: ADB sideload is a different ADB mode that you can use to push and install a zip using one command from your computer. Most likely ADB sideload won’t be very useful for your average recovery user, but ADB sideload can be a huge time-saver for a ROM developer.
Q: How does sideloading differ from flashing the images provided by google?
A: The ADB sideload installs only the updated parts of the OS. Sideloading uses the official signed OTA update, and does NOT: - wipe your data - factory restore
Q: will I lose my data by sideloading?
A: No. It works the same way as a regular OTA. However, if you are afraid of loosing your data perform a backup of your device.
Q:What do i need in order to sideload the update?
A: - Step 1: You need a USB cable to connect to your computer. If your computer doesn´t have a USB type C port, you will need this cable: https://store.google.com/product/usb_type_c_to_usb_standard_a_plug_cable
