The Nexus Android 7.0 Nougat update is finally rolling out bringing new features and fixes to Nexus devices around the world. It’s also causing problems and today we want to take a look at Nexus Android 7.0 problems on the Nexus 6, Nexus 6P, Nexus 5X, and more.
Earlier this year, Google released an Android Nougat Developer Preview, a beta that allowed anyone with a compatible device to test the update ahead of its public release.
The Android 7.0 Nougat beta delivered new and important features but it also caused problems for us and many other Nexus users.
In August, Google released the final version of the Nexus Android 7.0 Nougat update. And while the beta wiped out some of these problems, Nexus users are complaining about various issues with the new operating system.
As we push out from the Nexus Android 7.0 update release date, we’re starting to learn about the Android 7.0 Nougat problems plaguing owners of Nexus smartphones and tablets.
In response, we’ve put together a roundup that looks at these Nexus Android 7.0 problems, potential fixes for the most common issues, and some places to go if you need to find feedback about the Android 7.0 update on your device.
We will continue to update this with new information so check back for regular updates about problems, fixes and more.
How to Prepare for Android 7.0 Nougat
Now that Android 7.0 Nougat is out, it’s going to be tempting to make the move from Marshmallow to Nougat. No doubt. However, before you make the move to the new operating system, you’ll want to make sure that you’re prepared.
It’s extremely difficult to predict what you might run into after you install Android 7.0 on your phone or tablet. It could be flawless, you could see a dramatic drop in performance. It’s impossible to say. So, you’ll want to take a few minutes to prepare.
You’ll want to take a look at the step-by-step through the process we use before we install an Android update. We’re in the process of putting together our setup guide for Android 7.0 Nougat but this one aimed at Marshmallow will help.
A little prep work will go a long way toward preventing serious issues. Take your time with Android 7.0 Nougat. It’s not going anywhere.
Android 7.0 Nougat Problems
The Android 7.0 Nougat update is a solid upgrade for Nexus smartphones and tablets but it’s far from perfect.
Android 7.0 problems include the usual complaints about the installation process. A number of users have experienced issues side-loading the new software. This is a common complaint. If you’re having issues, take a look at our guide. It’ll walk you through the process.
Nexus 5X owners are reporting boot loops after installing Android 7.0 Nougat. However, Google is claiming that it’s a hardware problem and not a software problem which means it likely won’t be able to fix the issue with an update.
It appears that the only solution, at least for right now, is to get in contact with the retailer and ask for a replacement.
We’re also seeing complaints about busted/sound speakers, various performance issues including lag, abnormal battery drain, issues with Wi-Fi, issues with Bluetooth, problems moving from the Developer Preview, problems with various applications and Google Now, and more.

I'm having a problem with @BBM since updating my Nexus 6P to Nougat. Error writing file when anyone sends me any file/voice @BlackBerryHelp

It’s still early so we expect complaints to pickup as more updates roll out and as more people decide to make the switch to Android 7.0 Nougat.
The good news is that we haven’t (at least not yet) heard about any widespread Nexus Android 7.0 Nougat problems. That could change as the roll out picks up speed so if you’re feeling leery right now, it might be a good idea to wait for the smoke around the release to settle.
Android 7.0 is full of excellent changes but there’s a chance it could hurt your device’s performance so be careful.
Where to Find Android 7.0 Feedback
As we move away from Google’s Android 7.0 Nougat release date, you’ll want to keep tabs on performance.
Doing this will alert you to potential Android 7.0 Nougat problems on your device. And if you’re on the fence about installing Android 7.0 on your phone or tablet, it’ll help you get to one side of the fence or the other.
Most of you will probably wind up installing Nougat on your Nexus device but it might be wise to get a second opinion before you do so.
We’re digging into Google’s Android 7.0 Nougat updates and we’re going to provide you with our own impressions in the near future. There are a number of other resources out there.
We’re starting to see feedback go up on social media sites like Twitter and Facebook, Google’s Nexus Help forums, XDA-Developers, YouTube, and Android-centric forums like Android Central forums.

How to Fix Android 7.0 Nougat Problems
If you’re already experiencing an Android 7.0 problem on your device or if you simply want to prepare ahead of your Android 7.0 update, you’ll want to take a look at our list of fixes for common Nexus Android issues.
Our list includes potential fixes for battery life issues, Wi-Fi problems, Bluetooth issues, and other bugs that typically pop up after a major Nexus update release.
We’ve also put together a guide that will show you how to fix Nexus Android 7.0 Nougat battery life problems.
These fixes for Nexus Android problems have worked for many people in the past but they aren’t guaranteed to work on your phone or tablet.
If you can’t find a fix there, take at Google’s Nexus Help Forums. There are some very knowledgeable and polite Nexus users located there. If not there, head over to XDA-Developers, or your favorite Android-centric forum.
What’s Next
In its Android 7.0 Nougat announcement, Google announced that its already begun work on the next major Android 7.0 Nougat update.
It didn’t confirm the version but it’s safe to assume that it will roll out as Android 7.1 Nougat when it arrives in the fall.
The next three quarterly maintenance releases of Android Nougat will be Android 7.1 / 7.1.1 / 7.1.2
— Evan Blass (@evleaks) August 28, 2016
The update will go through a beta before it’s released to the public which means we probably won’t see it for a number of weeks, maybe in the late fall alongside the new HTC-made, Nexus-style devices.
We expect this update to be full of crucial bug fixes for Noguat problems and, if we’re lucky, some brand new features.
Google will also continue to roll out its monthly security updates though you can’t rely on those to bring bug fixes for Nougat problems.
Keep an eye out for details about security updates and the next Nougat update as we push away from the release date.
