Download And Install Android 2.3.6 Gingerbread (GRK39F) On Nexus One [How To Tutorial]

The Nexus One was Google’s first flagship Android smartphone. Released back in early 2010, the smartphone is nearly obsolete now. While its design remains timeless (many current-gen HTC phones carry similar designs), its internal hardware does not: The limited internal memory, a spotty touchscreen and poor battery life have not, at all, passed the test of time. This is especially because of the emergence of smartphones which perform better and last longer.
However, there are plenty of people out there who are still using the Nexus One as their primary phone. These people would be happy to know that Google is still pumping out OS updates for it. The latest update is Android 2.3.6 GRK39F – a security and performance improvement update – which is being rolled in the form of an OTA update. You can now either wait for that to come to you automatically or you can install it manually using our guide below:
