It's Nougat day, finally. Google's latest and greatest version of Android is beginning its slow rollout to Nexus devices, plus the Pixel C and General Mobile 4G. Dev preview devices are getting the OTA almost immediately, but devices on Marshmallow are taking a little longer. Google has said it could take a week or two for everyone to get the OTA, but you don't need to wait that long. We're collecting the full Nougat OTA links right here.

Team Win Recovery Project Updated To Version 2.8.3, Throws In Moto G 2014 Support For Good Measure
The Team Win Recovery Project (more commonly known as TWRP) is easily the most popular custom recovery used by Android enthusiasts at this point.

The biggest change is that the ADB sideload method has been modified to more closely align with the AOSP implementation, which keeps the update ZIP file on your computer rather than your phone or tablet.
Other notable differences include an update to SuperSU version 2.40 for root-keeping purposes, compatibility with the AArch64 libraries in the Nexus 9, and a host of other small changes that should have it running more smoothly in general.
