We’ve put together this page for you to collect all cool Marshmallow ROMs available for the Nexus 6 in one page. Find the one that suits your needs the most by trying out all of these ROMs one by one. Be sure to give these Marshmallow update based ROMs at least a week before switching to another one.

The Nexus 6 has officially received Marshmallow update from Google, and will be in line to receive the Android N update. But if you want more than stock features that Google provides — and there are many cool features available, plus themes — then you need to install custom ROMs.

To install these Marshmallow custom ROMs is easy. Though, you will first have to unlock bootloader of your Nexus 6, and then install Nexus 6 TWRP recovery. Then download and transfer the ROM to your Nexus 6, reboot into recovery mode to access TWRP, and use its Install menu to flash the ROM on Nexus 6.

If you ever wish to remove the custom ROM, and TWRP, just install the factory image available from Google here. You will be back to stock.
