10 Things to Know About the Nexus 5X Android O Update

How to Install the Nexus 5X Android O Update

Once you're prepared it's time to take the next step. 

If you're already on the beta, simply head into your Settings and check for an update. It should be there waiting for you. If you're just now looking to try the beta for the first time, here's what you need to do. 

The Nexus 5X Android O beta is free and it's open to anyone. If you didn't signup for or try the Android O Developer Preview, that's fine. 

To get started, head on over to Google's Android beta site. You will be prompted to sign into your Google account. Select the account that's associated with your Nexus 5X and sign in. 

Once you're signed in you'll want to click that big green button to enroll your Nexus 5X. Read over and agree to the terms.

From there, you'll want to go into your Nexus 5X and check for a new update in Settings like you normally would. 

There, you should see a screen that resembles the screenshot here. Download the software, install it, and you're now on the Android O beta.

If you were previously enrolled in the Android Nougat Beta Program, you must enroll again to get the Android O beta on your Nexus 5X.
