I was prompted by my Nexus 6P this morning and did on OTA update (supposed to bring security fixes) but it turned out that after the firwmare update, WIFI function on the phone is no longer working. Can fellow Nexus 6P users, who did the OTA update today verify if the problem affects your phone as well?

FYI, numerous restarts of the phone does not resolve the problem. Data/Internet access via mobile data (i.e. LTE) is fine.

If it is indeed a firmware issue, I wonder if Huawei or Google will be liable for the mobile data charges incurred.. I recalled that Apple faces class action lawsuit over Wi-Fi assist data usage.

Well, class action suits do not work in Singapore leh. You can try case but seeing the mobile air incident I think they are pretty useless :p

ur device is in the late stage lo lol:s13::s13:

These two are strangely not among Huawei's list of third party shops carrying Nexus 6P..if I'm not wrong..

these 2 shops have always been recommended by other bros earlier in this thread... cheaper and same warranty + same "free" gifts

Side note: just updated to the latest feb patch, no wifi issues

here's mine with a dbrand skin applied.. sorry for the bad quality, it was taken with an iphone 4:s13::s13:
for those bros who don't know how to apply the dbrand skin, go youtube and watch the official tutorial, and i did use a hair dryer when applying the area at the top and corners, if not the skin wont stay down
it's a matte black skin with the 'only X cutout' + black matte camera visor skin


With ringke fusion smoke black case:
