Maybe a video on how to install ElementalX
[Nexus 9 General] berendspruijt:
This!
[Nexus 9 General] Tomsgt:
There isn't a recovery for the nexus 9 yet is there.
[Nexus 9 General] Hashbang173:
Not yet, I might try to port one later but I highly doubt it will work.
[Nexus 9 General] Tomsgt:
that would be awesome
[Nexus 9 General] Tomsgt:
added another video to the OP. I think i will do a Kernel install next
[Nexus 9 General] tyvar1:
Thank you! Does the cf auto root also unlock oem?
[Nexus 9 General] Tomsgt:
yes it will do both OEM unlock and root if needed
[Nexus 9 General] tyvar1:
Thanks once again! Very good news for me! cf is the best, makes everything so easy!
[Nexus 9 General] berendspruijt:
maybe a how to: flash the LRX21Q update ^^
[Nexus 9 General] Tomsgt:
ok will work on that next
[Nexus 9 General] CerB:
If i use the root you showed, will it reset my device?

Sendt fra min Nexus 9 med Tapatalk
[Nexus 9 General] Tomsgt:
both root methods i have listed do rest your device because they both require a unlocked bootloader and when you do that it must wipe data factory rest. if your bootloader is already unlocked then your are good and no data wipe is needed.
[Nexus 9 General] CerB:
That would be nice

[Nexus 9 General] doubleho:
thanks for that,making it so much easier for noob like me

I always had to flash back to stock on my nexus5 everytime there's a update, with the videos I saved so much time with my nexus9 now
[Nexus 9 General] Tomsgt:
glad i could help :) I love Android its so fun. and love to Share when i have time
[Nexus 9 General] Jeltel:
When on the Q update both options to root would get rid of the boot.img from the Q update right? And effectively not use the new kernel?

edit: Ah nevermind found a responce from Chainfire himself: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=56772746&postcount=627
[Nexus 9 General] Scotlac:
Thanks so much for putting these together Tomsgt! I am now unlocked and rooted and am just waiting for the files to download so I can push LRX21Q.

You said that we will lose root after flashing and that we should use CF Auto Root to regain. Is that basically what option #2 is in the root tool that you provided in "How to Root Your HTC Nexus 9 Super Easy with One Click"? Or should I use the CFAR from Chainfire's site?

Thanks once again for all your great work!

Edit: Nevermind, I figured it out. Unlocked, rooted and running LRX21Q. Thanks again!!!
[Nexus 9 General] Tomsgt:
yep you got it. sorry i couldnt answer sooner
[Nexus 9 General] livinginavacuum:
Thanks for the manual update video. Worked great and taught me a bit.

I'm now bookmarking this thread, good sir.
[Nexus 9 General] band_aid:
Will the "How to Root Your HTC Nexus 9 Super Easy with One Click" method work on the latest Nexus 9 firmware?
[Nexus 9 General] Tomsgt:
Yes it should be fine as long as google didn't change the boot.IMG in the new update.
[Nexus 9 General] band_aid:
unlocked the bootloader and rooted the Nexus 9 with the Q firmware, it works.
[Nexus 9 General] Tomsgt:
awesome good to know
[Nexus 9 General] doubleho:
hi, any plan doing to Q to R video?

btw, u show add a donate button in your android app
[Nexus 9 General] Tomsgt:
great idea for a donate button on the app and also i just added a tool to update you to 21R to my server site it will be up shortly :)
[Nexus 9 General] tyvar1:
Thank you for everything! :D will you do a how to video for TWRP?
[Nexus 9 General] Tomsgt:
working on it now
[Nexus 9 General] doubleho:
I tgt twrp doesn't support 5.0 yet

but if we flash twrp, would it be harder for us to update when there's new ota come up?
[Nexus 9 General] Tomsgt:
if there is a new ota update yes TWRP might make it fail. but as long as the Firmware is also release with it. you can always flash the firmware in fastboot or with one of my tools to get the update. :)
[Nexus 9 General] Tomsgt:
TWRP Install Video is Live
[Nexus 9 General] Scotlac:
Hey Tomsgt!

Thanks again for everything that you're doing for us!

I got updated to 21R but for some reason I can't seem to get root back. I'm using the root tool that you provided in your one click video and I've tried it twice. I have SU on my device but Root Checker says I'm not rooted. Should I just use the standard CF Auto Root instead?
[Nexus 9 General] tyvar1:
You are fast! Thank you :D
[Nexus 9 General] Tomsgt:
yes i would use CF auto root. it is a better option and what i have been using since it was released
[Nexus 9 General] Scotlac:
Uggghhh, sorry to be such a pain Tomsgt!

I used CFAR to re-root my device after upgrading to 21R and everything seemed to be going fine but now I have the picture of the dead Android with the red triangle w/ "No command".

I'm assuming that this means I'm stuck in a boot loop but I'm not exactly sure how it happened or what I need to do to fix it. Your help is much appreciated! :)

Edit: No matter what I do I can't seem to get it to boot into recovery mode. Always goes back to the dead android. I've posted this in the Q&A Forum as well.

Second edit: I'm not really sure what happened there but I was finally able to get back up and running. I was able to get back into recovery mode by holding the up volume button for several seconds and then pressing the power button and holding both until the recovery popped up.

I went ahead and installed TWRP from fastboot because I wasn't sure if it would boot back into the system. Strangely enough it would still not reboot into system and just kept going back to TWRP so I ended up manually reinstalling the 21R image. I seem to be fine now, sorry for the false alarm!
[Nexus 9 General] Tomsgt:
Wow that's a lot of edits ;) your dead android guy with the no cammands is stock android recovery once there you have to press the volume down and power again to get the options to pop up. Looks like you figured that out. Recovery partition shouldnt have anything to do with how the device boots. Even if you deleted the recovery the device should still boot. Not sure why it wasnt booting for you. But glad you got it going.
[Nexus 9 General] doubleho:
hi, I flashed twrp using flashify (I couldn't downlaod the file on nexus9, the site keep counting down from 10 to 0, so I downloaded the img on my computer and moved it to the n9 with otg), and after the reboot it stayed at the teamwin screen for a long time(like 3 or 4 mind) ,then it goes to the normal twrp screen with swipe to unlock button, apparently it spent too much time loading the recovery ,I compared it to the video u posted,mine really did load much longerbthan your device, is it a teamwin problem or I did anything wrong flashing it?

I m on 21r and rooted
[Nexus 9 General] Tomsgt:
must be teamwin problem and which file did you flash. there are to recoverys on the site
[Nexus 9 General] doubleho:
the latest one

---------- Post added at 02:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:29 PM ----------

just wait for a couple more updates to TWRP and these little bugs will get worked out :)

Update to LRX21R

I succesfully updated from L (rooted) to R (rooted) without loosing any data

had problems with "device offline" first (maybe my outdated adb?) but all went well with your zipped files

thanks for your videos - donation is on the way...

:good:
[Nexus 9 General] CerB:
if i use the latest you made to upgrade to 21R from Q, will i have to root again and install recovery ?
[Nexus 9 General] Tomsgt:
Yes my update with flash both stock recovery and boot so root and twrp will be gone.

If you want just the update then flash just system with command fastboot flash system system.img
[Nexus 9 General] CerB:
lucky for me you have all the tools needed to root again :)
[Nexus 9 General] Tomsgt:
Yeah its really simple to root again with cf auto root :)
[Nexus 9 General] doubleho:
I backed up the stock recovery with flashify,can I just flash it then I can go back to stock recovery?
[Nexus 9 General] Tomsgt:
yep its that easy :)
[Nexus 9 General] nmil1484:
Sorry if this has been asked. Skimmed last three pages.

I am rooted with stock recovery. Can i take the OTA and will i keep root?
[Nexus 9 General] doubleho:
if you are rooted then u will not be able to update through ota

just follow the video and download "update to 21r" to update to 21r

then reroot using cf auto root,u can get the link form chainfire's thread

it is easy,will take u less than 20mins
[Nexus 9 General] Ali.G:
twrp

need help please just installed latest twrp on my nexus 9. Can't reboot into Android - it reboots into twrp recovery no matter what I do!!!
[Nexus 9 General] Tomsgt:
what did you do in twrp recovery to cause this problem?
[Nexus 9 General] Ali.G:
Nothing! I did a regular nandroid backup and tried to reboot! Thats it
[Nexus 9 General] Tomsgt:
in twrp use the reboot menu to boot to bootloader then use my update tool from this thread to restore the device in bootloader mode / fastboot mode.
[Nexus 9 General] doubleho:
hi,just wonder if I would lose anything if I disable encryption
[Nexus 9 General] Tomsgt:
if your devices bootloader is already unlocked then disabling encryption will not wipe out any of your data. All that you are going is flashing a new boot.img

sounds like a good next video to do right :)
[Nexus 9 General] Scotlac:
+1
[Nexus 9 General] doubleho:
yes please,I always flashed the wrong img. .....
[Nexus 9 General] Tomsgt:

[Nexus 9 General] doubleho:
hi, if I disable the encryption I will lose all my data right?

can I use titanium backup to make my device exactly the same as before I disable it?

and do I have to manually root,flash recovery and everything else again?
[Nexus 9 General] Tomsgt:
You can use titanium backups but make sure you copy all those backups over to your computer first the disable encryption and root again then copy backups back to the device and restore them.
[Nexus 9 General] Tomsgt:
updated the update tool to the new firmware that was just released 22C
[Nexus 9 General] doubleho:
do I need to flash back stock recovery before updating to 22c?
[Nexus 9 General] Tomsgt:
Not with this tool just click on the batch file also watch the video in the op
[Nexus 9 General] doubleho:
updated and rooted,thz

BTW do u see any improvement after you disabled encryption?

I still don't have time to disable it so wonder should I spend hours to backup,flash,restore bla black bla....
[Nexus 9 General] Tomsgt:
I haven't tried it on the nexus 9 but on the nexus 6 it makes the recoveries and many other things much much faster. Backups went from 10 minutes to 3 minutes
[Nexus 9 General] ÜBER™:
I've never had to deal with updating stock so im fairly unfamiliar with how it works. Bootloader unlocked, rooted, custom recovery & kernel(usually by now i have a custom ROM.. but only one is available and I'd rather wait). Could i just download the system images (5.0.1) and flash only the system.img to update? Or do you have to flash the boot.img and recovery.img seeing as i have both of those custom already and don't feel like reflashing those. I know the commands, just wanna know if i can just flash the system.img and not have to reroot or reflash recovery/kernel.

Thanks :)
[Nexus 9 General] Skid71:
From what I've read, the only thing changed in this update is the system.img

Go flash my friend, go flash
[Nexus 9 General] ÜBER™:
Vendor files look new.. there was an image in there for it. Don't know how to flash that though. Flashed the new bootloader included and flashed the system.img and reflashed SuperSU just in case. Up and running just fine. :good:
[Nexus 9 General] Tomsgt:
yep your good the bootloader is the same. just flash system.img and your good to go.
[Nexus 9 General] eded333:
No improvement on the Nexus 9 after disabling encryption.
[Nexus 9 General] doubleho:
so I m not going to disable it,seems like we have to disable it everytime we have update
[Nexus 9 General] blakeslee14:
Thanks for the all of the helpful information. Glad to have the nexus 9. :)

bootlooping...

ok so i fastboot unlocked..

then did the nexus root tool thing that has the windows program to decrypt root and install recoveries and everything. i rooted and installed twrp no problem... i then tried to decrypt the nexus 9 and now im stuck in a constant twrp bootloop. tried restarting the device normally (hell just to see if it decrypted) the splash screen (google) comes up then twrp bootloop.. so i hold power button wait for it to go off then hold the power and volume up, get to bootloader, and tried reflashing recovery... still a bootloop at twrp, still cant even boot up android. So i say ok f*ck it, try to fastboot factory reset, and flash stock... nope still twrp bootloop... unsure of how to proceed... everything i have tried from going back to stock, to flashing recovery ends in a twrp bootloop.. any ideas???
[Nexus 9 General] doubleho:
hi Tom ,just wonder if u r planning to do similar topic on nexus6 thread?
[Nexus 9 General] Tomsgt:
well i never started one in the nexus 6 forum but i have the videos already check here http://www.rootjunky.com/nexus/nexus-6/
[Nexus 9 General] life:
just an update

had to restart the nrt tool 3 times to finally flash stock and then re-root, and flash custom rom and recovery decrypted..
[Nexus 9 General] doubleho:
thank you, I just received my nexus6 and wonder where is your nexus6 topic

got it rooted now
[Nexus 9 General] doubleho:
can't wait to upgrade.to 5.1 and your video
[Nexus 9 General] Tomsgt:
Yeah just waiting on those factory images come on google.
[Nexus 9 General] doubleho:
do I need to flash back stock recovery first???
[Nexus 9 General] Tomsgt:
not if you flash the firmware with one of my tools i will make once the 5.1 firmware is out.
[Nexus 9 General] Tomsgt:
added a new video to the OP
[Nexus 9 General] doubleho:
thz, I think this video is exclusively for me cause I keep asking haha, I will try this may be tomorrow on my nexus 9

btw ,I have a nexus6 too and on 5.0.1,can I update straight to 47e(skip 47d)??because both 47d and e are stated "5.1"
[Nexus 9 General] Tomsgt:
yes you can ++
[Nexus 9 General] doubleho:
hi tom ,it is me again

I m having a bad battery drain on my n9, I know it is the playservice bug which keep the device awake for every seconds after a reboot, I have the same issue on my n5 and n6 and I could fix it with tasker ( pm enable com.google.android.gms/.update.SystemUpdateService and disable it)

I did the same thing on my n9 and it doesn't work

I m rooted and on stock rom and Franco kernel on all device, u have any idea why would that happen???
[Nexus 9 General] Tomsgt:
I would guess that it has something to do with the kernel you are running I have a nexus 6 and 9 both on stock plus root and some mods. I have never had that problem. Battery life is fine for me.

hi everyone!!

i want to buy a nexus 9 i want to know 2 things before:

1) it will support the mhl or the slimport? how?

2) it will support the otg without any problem?

thanks!! :confused:
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gormsen:
It doesn't support mhl or slimport right now, and I doubt it will do so in the future. Read about it in the OTG threads.

Huawei Ascend Y600-U20 Bricked

After my brother wiping his data off his phone, he gave it to a technician to be fixed,after the day it was bricked.

When I turned on the phone using Vol. Up + power button , it took 3 secs holding it,then Huawei Logo appeared for a second.

Then it displayed,

Formatting /cache....

Cache wipe failed.

Then the logo appeared,like lying on the floor,stomach-open,with a red triangle, with a exclamation mark inside of the triangle. The logo is flashing every 5 secs.

This is a Huawei Ascend Y600-U20 model.

I dont know the other info. because,everytime I turn it on,it displays like what I said earlier .Except for using Vol. Down + Power Button,Its stucks at the main logo " Huawei Ascend".I hoped this phone will be fixed.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XRSTOY1:
I have the Tab S 32 Gig in Titanium Bronze, I'm on my fourth unit. The first one had a bad speaker, the second one a bad power switch the third on after less than 2 weeks I noticed the back of the unit having what looked like my handprint from where I hold the unit. I tried to wipe it off and it wouldn't come off. as a matter of fact the area that was duller also had a rougher texture to it than the rest of it. I thought wow how crazy this has to be a defect in this tablet there is no way my hands did that. The plastic was even softer in this area I actually scratched it with the flick of my finger going forward.. So I returned that one. I inspected the new one at the store and it was fine. Now that I have had it less than a week the same thing is happening again. My hands aren't sweaty or oily or anything like that. I work with steel all day and if my hand were an issue I'd now it. I called Samsung's customer support and he as well as the Samsung rep at best Buy are telling me to return it again. I'm like why bother it's going to happen again. Even the demo at the store was showing signs of this. The Samsung customer service rep said get another and gave me a case number and told me if it happens again to call back.

Any one else notice this issue?
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] barth2:
I bought mine from Costco and it came with a flip cover for free so the back is always covered by the lid when I'm using it so I have no idea.

What is that back made of. It feels like metal with some kind of plastic coating.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DUHAsianSKILLZ:
Either the place your getting the tab s from has defective tablets or it could be caused by the heat of the tablet causeing part of the back to make that mark. I fixed my heat problem in which the heat from the tablet could be causing it. I have a bump that bumps out a bit idk why. When I fixed my heating problems i dont have anymore ploblems.
