may have the radio but it's up to Google to implement the code to make it work. Keep in mind based on Block C rules Verizon has it open sourced for manufacturers to do so.

Hi, When is the nexus 6p going to be on the compatible device list?

Ask Google if they implemented the code(short answer they have not).  It's open sourced and you can check the code it isn't there.

Okay, I can understand that but the hardware that's on the Nexus 6P supports LTE-A. Hopefully it will support it.

That's not decided on Verizon.  It's decided by the companies that make devices.  If they don't make it work then nothing can be done about it.  By Block C rules all network related services for Verizon must be open sourced.  Any company can ask for it and Verizon can't deny them.  At this point I can't blame Verizon for features not working if the manufacturer doesn't want to put the legwork in.

I believe last time I looked there was a Google Group about it trying to convince Google to do the legwork.  I don't think it'll ever happen with the 6P, but possibly future devices it may.
