Wugfresh = my hero!! haven't used his toolkit since gnex days, but still just as easy and awesome as ever!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] WugFresh:
Check the toolkit options, under the root tab. Check if its set to install busybox.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] mdpatterson:
Dumb question, is it possible to flash the stock ROM(coming from a custom ROM) without loosing root or twrp with the NRT
[Nexus 6 Android Development] freddienux:
yeah buddy

your the man wug fresh
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Cy_n_ic:
No reason to think it wouldnt. All 6's are the same. Hardware and software alike. At&t only add their splash screen that you see on boot.

bout time you showed up [MENTION=3110798]WugFresh[/MENTION]
[Nexus 6 Android Development] shane1981:
Ok guys im coming from a att note 3 so this is all new and confusing one time and not the next so my question is all i have to do is download and install this toolkit and drivers, check all the correct boxes and so on then using this toolkit hit the button of whatever i want it to do and it will do it with just a simple click or am i missing something .please inform me i have no idea how this works ive watched some videos and thats it .i cant realy find a clear cut answer.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] jimmydigital00:
I have a quick question I was hoping someone could help me with.

I was unlocked, un-encrypted and then ran this root and installed custom recovery.

WHen the phone booted it said encrypting which took 2 minutes to complete.

Why did it re-encrypt my phone?

Thanks!!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] antiochasylum:
Yes its really that easy. [MENTION=3110798]WugFresh[/MENTION] does an awesome job of making everything pretty much 1 click with awesome detailed instructions. Follow the instructions and it works flawlessly.

You just have to hit the prompts on your device.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] WugFresh:
Because it flashed a root_kernel that doesn't have the un-encrypted mod. I will support this un-encrypted stuff in a future release, once I see how chainfire will ultimately deliver root.

I suppose I could build a quick boot.img now, and do something temporary in v1.9.9.

Edit: added that info into the OP.

{{ WugFresh }}
[Nexus 6 Android Development] shane1981:
So all i have to do is download this toolkit and has all the files and so on for root and bootloader and everything included . Sorry ive been confused before and it cost me dearly in alot of ways .i just want to make absolutely sure that im not missing a step or anything .
[Nexus 6 Android Development] WugFresh:
It will download the files you need.

1. Enable developer options menu: Settings > Tap your Build 7 times (then configure drivers if you haven't already with the driver guide)

2. Open developer options: Settings > Developer Options

3. Enable USB Debugging, and 'enable oem unlock'

4. Unlock button

5. Root button (with custom recovery checked if you want TWRP too)

Thats it.

{{ WugFresh }}
[Nexus 6 Android Development] antiochasylum:
You asked the exact thing in your previous post. And I answered you.

YES. ITS THAT EASY. YOU CANNOT SCREW IT UP
[Nexus 6 Android Development] shane1981:
Thanks ive found a new home with the nexus and you just made it so easy for us dumb dumbs.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Skripka:
By the time my Nexus 6 gets here you'll probably be at 2.0

Yes they can screw it up...take the guy who used NRT on his Nexus 6 last week before it supported it and used Nexus 7 settings to force the tool to do its magic.

Boy did he screw up. Honestly not sure if that guy has fixed his self-inflicted disaster yet.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Donjuanal:
My device is stuck having booted from TWRP and is asking me for a password?

EDIT: Nevermind, i was too quick to ask, i figured out how to numerically enter my pattern
[Nexus 6 Android Development] WugFresh:
I had multiple users confirm this working, so that is strange. Did you have the unencrypted thing flashed?

Where is it asking you this? In twrp? Or in system?

{{ WugFresh }}
[Nexus 6 Android Development] WugFresh:
Ah ha!. I see your edit. Don't scare me! :P

{{ WugFresh }}
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Donjuanal:
Sorry. New to nexus and your software! Once i got that figured out it was easy as pie!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] kornklown69:
So everyone knows used this toolkit on nexus 5 makes it easy

I have rooted, flashed recovery, and unlocked...

Does this toolkit allow you to decrypt? Cause I can't find it.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] WugFresh:
Yes. Advanced utilities > Fastboot Flash > Boot > No-Force Encrypt
[Nexus 6 Android Development] garyHal:
I just need to unlock the bootloader.

What will the BACKUP function save? Does it save all files, apps, and settings so that once I restore, it will get me back to where I originally left off?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] dtreth:
So any word on CWM Touch Recovery, or possibly CWM Superuser? I couldn't get these options to work, and I assume they are just not supported yet.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Starymari:
Does this affect the data on the device? I'm still not sure about all this decrypting stuff (lol) but I'm currently unlocked, rooted, and running a custom rom so I'm wondering if that will wipe my device again...
[Nexus 6 Android Development] norwoodesteel:
yes it will format data
[Nexus 6 Android Development] reyesdaze:
I am rooted and sim unlocked. AT&T Nexus using Verizon. I removed all the att files. If i flash back to stock and unroot and relock the bootloader, will i have to sim unlock again and will the att customizations show back up?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Hand76:
Got my phone today and within 1 hour I was unlocked, rooted and had twrp installed! Thanks so much man.

Quick brain fart. If I do a factory reset in twrp, will root remain or I have to do it again from within the tool kit?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Mahapederdon:
It makes it a system app so you should be okay.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] umair shaikh:
So first.... I should unlock the bootloader then de-encrypt...and after that root and install twrp ???

Also...do i need to download any additional files for de-encryption ? Or the kit has it all it self ??
[Nexus 6 Android Development] clothednblack:
Yes, in that order works and the kit gathers everything for you, it doesn't get any easier than this.

Was able to install drivers fine on my win 7 32 at work, but at home on win 7 64 i get "The publisher of an Authenticode(tm) signed catalog has not yet been established as trusted." and no install anyway popup comes up. have tried F8 for unsigned drivers, bcdedit stuff and manual install of all the drivers offered by wug, to no avail. this is after deleting a bunch of the usb and adb stuff using the usbd tool.

i have not tried using a usb 2 port at home yet, and im at work now. i also have not tried adding the driver directory to enviornment variables.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Coldkiller78:
I just wanted to say thank you for this awesome tool!!!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] kharv:
Worked like a charm as always, thanks!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Starymari:
Hey all! Is there a way to decrypt after I've unlocked and rooted or do I have to start the process all over again?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] ggrant3876:
How long should it take to unlock. Been erasing for about 5 minutes so far.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] WugFresh:
Yeah. Advanced Utilities > Fastboot Flash > Boot > No-Force Encrypt.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] kornklown69:
looks like time for an update 5.0.1 is out lol
[Nexus 6 Android Development] jimmypop13:
I'm flashing the update now. Just to be sure, I'll have to wait for an update to Wug's app before I can decrypt on the new build right? I imagine using the current decrypt boot image that Wug has would screw things up pretty badly
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Krunk83:
Uh yeah. The decrypted image is 5.0. Someone has do make a decrypted 5.01 before we flash/update.

nexus 6
[Nexus 6 Android Development] vicvon:
deleted
[Nexus 6 Android Development] paztine:
Successful..

Just flash the factory image 501 without any glitch..thanks again dev... I am on TMO

network all signal is working...wifi okay...Just waiting to be decrypted again...root maybe..
[Nexus 6 Android Development] mouse100:
I'm looking forward to have the update :D
[Nexus 6 Android Development] dadymon53:
Are you saying that wug's has the 5.0.1 update already? Good!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] paztine:
Google factory image..

I just download the official google factory image and flash it using this tool...Disregard some of the messages that the toolkit will tell you..Make sure to select your android version to any build. and skip the hash check..
[Nexus 6 Android Development] gwojo22:
Yes Wuggs toolkit is awesome! Just wondering if you were rooted, decrypted, stock, or not , when you updated or did you flash back to stock before updating. It would be nice to not lose all data again.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] paztine:
stock, rooted, decrypted,,

I was stock..rooted..decrypted running elemental x kernel when I flash the factory image,. From my experience ever since using this tool ..I never have to revert back to stock rom or otherwise .I just go directly flash the official image whenever theres an update.. I just specify what android version I am on when using the toolkit..
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nhpctech:
Over in the general section there is a topic on the 5.0.1 factory image. Sounds like they were able to create a new 5.0.1 boot image for unencrypted and they were also able to flash root. I dont know if they uploaded boot img yet or not. Will try to find and share link here.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] paztine:
thanks..

I will be trying that definitely but for the mean time I want to enjoy the new stock image.. I will let the excitement die down a bit..lol..
[Nexus 6 Android Development] WugFresh:
No. The moment I listed 5.0.1 in the toolkit, I had already built the 5.0.1 decrypted img.

I had made that, plus root the very day 5.0.1 was released.

Just use the same button. It will ask you to download the new decrypted img, (for the build you have selected in the kit.. )
[Nexus 6 Android Development] WugFresh:
Oh.. Wait. I see. This is a new 5.0.1 img that just got released for shamu!

I will generate the decrypted img and upload everything and get it listed within the hour. :)
[Nexus 6 Android Development] jbdan:
So just a quick clarification.... Once you have it uploaded to the tk I could just flash normally on top of my decrypted unlocked rooted 5.0 without a wipe?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] mzimand:

Flash in twrp

I'm trying to flash the zip in twrp and I keep getting error and failed what am I doing wrong

---------- Post added at 05:42 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:31 AM ----------

Adb sideload is also not working I'm getting an error right after stock recovery
[Nexus 6 Android Development] WugFresh:
Version 2.0.0 will be able to do that, which is not quite ready yet and I am not able to work on it tonight; however I can provide some quick instructions once I get 5.0.1 listed explaining how you could do that.

The toolkit has 'no wipe mode' already, however I also need to add a feature where you can have it substitute in the no-force encrypt boot.img for the stock one when flashing stock. To deal with this in v1.9.9, you will basically have to swap that file in manually (just rename the no-force-encypt boot.img to "boot.img" and put it in the proper directory). I can write it up in more detail.

I should have some free time to finish coding v2.0.0 tmrw, so hopefully I can get that out as well.

Stay tuned for 5.0.1 listed in the kit. Getting it sorted right now, will post back momentarily.

{{ WugFresh }}
[Nexus 6 Android Development] WugFresh:
If you are stock, yes.

{{ WugFresh }}
[Nexus 6 Android Development] WugFresh:
You probably have system mods. Lollipop is strict on ota prerequistes.

K guys I can confirm root, recovery and disable encrypted with toolbox on stock 5.0.1

---------- Post added at 08:47 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:46 AM ----------

First I downloaded the nexus 6 5.0.1 img. And flashed it using the toolbox then was able to root and the other good stuff.:)
[Nexus 6 Android Development] ilostmypistons:
No mods it was straight stock ... Ill try it again
[Nexus 6 Android Development] javier180:
SInce used this tool, Unlocked, rooted and decrypted my nexus phone I was wondering about this new 5.1 updated or whatever the number was. What is the best solution of updating to this without losing what I did already. Is someone going to upload a proper stock rom with this version with root and decryption. If it already exist can someone post the link to downloading this rom. Also Would it be safe to dirty flash with this new version ?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] WugFresh:
Hopefully by tmrw I will be able to code up 2.0.0, in which there will be a new option to allow you to do just that, dirty flash stock while keeping decryption.

Right now, NRT could dirty flash, but it would re-encrypt, because it would flash the stock boot.img. The new version will allow you to auto swap in the no-force encypt boot.img, and if you enable no-wipe mode too, then everything will be good to go.

I can't speak to custom roms for this device, but that is deff another good option.

{{ WugFresh }}
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Amos91:
Awesome news. I'll be waiting for your next update!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] WugFresh:
5.0.1 is listed now. Stay tuned for v2.0.0 with some new features and improvements.

{{ WugFresh }}
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Xelphos:
I could not get this thing to work. It would make ADB look for my phone and wouldn't find it, so I had to do the whole process of rooting and what not the old fashion way in CMD.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] javier180:
Listed where? Sorry it's been a while since I got back into this stuff. So how would I go about updating my current 5.0.0 to 0.1 now?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] WugFresh:
First hit 'update' in the toolkit, and it will grab the latest 'masterlists' < which are the files that tells it a new build is available.

If you aren't decrypted. Then you would:

1.) Enable 'no wipe mode' in the toolkits options menu

2.) Use Flash Stock + Unroot

3.) Select the 5.0.1 build

{{ WugFresh }}
[Nexus 6 Android Development] WugFresh:
Is it rooted? That will now prevent it, because by installing supersu to the system, it changes the system blob.

{{ WugFresh }}
[Nexus 6 Android Development] HipKat:
Mine did that too, because I skipped over uninstalling my Samsung drivers, but once I did, it rebooted it to Bootloader, no problem.

This tool kit is simply amazing. The walk-throughs for each step are the best thing I've ever seen added to any thing like this
[Nexus 6 Android Development] jbdan:
Wow nice. You are so appreciated my friend! Thanks for all you do to make this tool kit so special and our lives simpler :D
[Nexus 6 Android Development] gwojo22:
Last night before Wugg could add 5.01 to the toolkit I flashed the full firmware update which I downloaded from Google. The toolkit worked perfectly. Although my phone is back to stock encrypted , I ran a benchmark out of curiosity and I'm getting much higher scores then the 5.00 encrypted. I think this update may have repaired the problem of slow processing while encrypted. Check out the pics.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Krunk83:
If I have an un-encrypted version of 5.0.1 can I just update my phone myself by dirty flash using the toolkit via advanced utilities/fastboot flash/boot? Or should I just wait for 2.0 which will be updated?

---------- Post added at 07:56 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:50 AM ----------

What benchmark app is that? When I use Antutu I get scores in the 49,000 range.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] gwojo22:
It's Quadrant
[Nexus 6 Android Development] gwojo22:
Not sure what Quadrant scores mean so here are Antutu scores with encryption, stock, rooted.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] bagelicious:
Sorry for the ignorant question - will 2.0 allow me to upgrade to 5.0.1 without losing my data? I am stock with root and I am still encrypted. Thanks!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Amos91:
The current version will. V2.0 is designed to allow the user to keep the non-ecryption kernel flashed.

If you open the toolkit and go options>flash stock

You can enable no wipe which will mean when you go back and flash the stock image it will not overwrite your data partition. Only thing you will then have to do is re-root.

With any upgrades like this I would recommend making a nandroid backup through TWRP in case anything goes wrong;
[Nexus 6 Android Development] mzimand:
How would I use the toolkit to flash just the 73mb OTA zip file?

I see no reason to flash the entire factory image if I am stock and just need the update but not sure how to do it. Any help is greatly appreciated
[Nexus 6 Android Development] beelow319:
quick (hopefully) question:

so i did the following:

1) type fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-shamu-moto-apq8084-71.05.img

2) type fastboot flash radio radio-shamu-d4.0-9625-02.55.04.img

3) type fastboot reboot-bootloader

4) type fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

5) type fastboot flash boot boot-501-noforceencrypt.img

6) type fastboot flash system system.img

7) rebooted and am now on 501

my question is can i use the current v1.99 to obtain root again? was unsure because of the modified boot img flashed during the root process in NRT

thanks!

Edit: figured it out after researching a bit more.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] marper123:
My Quadrant score on 5.0 unencrypted was 13,500. So are we definitely seeing improvements on the read/write speeds with this update?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Domini384:
This method keep your files correct?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] vicvon:
One problem I'm having. I have a 64 gb nexus 6. When I flashed the new build with Wugtools, it shows as a 32 gb device with only 20.3 gb left after flashing. Even windows explorer shows only 20.3 gb left. Any Ideas? As soon as 2.0 comes out, I will use that to un-encrypt to see if that does the trick.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] paztine:
factory reset..

Just do a factory reset and youll get back your other 32gb..
[Nexus 6 Android Development] beelow319:
Yes, following those steps I kept data
[Nexus 6 Android Development] mr pnut:
With update rooted and unencrypted
[Nexus 6 Android Development] vicvon:
Actually, that didn't work. Any other suggestions?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] TexasRules777:
You did the reset via the android stock recovery?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] 9wire:
Just did this and worked perfectly. I'm on 5.0.1, unlocked, rooted and no data loss. I was looking for a way to update and there's alot of different info that can be confusing. Much appreciated.

Wugfresh's utility is possibly the easiest best tool I've used since doing hex edits on the original razr flip phone. Great work on this, sir.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] vicvon:
No, I did a reset from the settings in android and it didn't work. Just did a data format in TWRP and that did the trick.

Thanks for the replies.

So now I have another issue.

I originally rooted with 1.9.8 and I never set up a TWRP recovery or even logged in.

Now when I try to root after updating to 5.0.1 it gets hung up at TWRP where it asks for a password. I never set a password, so nothing works. I can cancel out, but then I'm just stuck in TWRP until I reboot, but it never actually roots. Help.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] mouse100:
So If my Nexus will arrive tomorrow, I'll update it out of the box to 5.0.1 original OTA. But then will I be able to root, flash TWRP and decrypt the 5.0.1 with this tool?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] tbird302:
So set up. Ran driver test everything passed. Goto adb sideload followed prompt adb not detected. Could not find any hardware issues in device manager. Did all trouble shooting steps. Using surface pro 3 win 8.1. Any help would be great.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] EmperorX:
Fairly confident this is a Windows 8 / 8.1 thing. Tried on 3 pcs today. Going to try on my fiances win 7 machine here shortly. I had the OTA. Then Google took it away. Owned.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] norwoodesteel:
works on windows 8 just fine
[Nexus 6 Android Development] EmperorX:
8.0 or 8.1? Specifically adb sideloading an OTA file with the tool?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] clothednblack:
I have windows 8.1 and don't have any issues
[Nexus 6 Android Development] coltonwood:
I did this on windows 8.1. When you try to sideload the OTA and it says your device wasn't found (at the "apply update via adb" part), I unplugged my phone and then plugged it right back in and my pc just automatically downloaded and installed drivers for the phone. Then I ran the sideload adb command again and it worked perfect. Hope this helps!

Need some advice.

Im on a Nexus 6 running Android 5.0 which i have rooted using NRT.

Is it possible to install the 5.0.1 update without loosing any data and root using Wugs toolkit?!

I've just set up my phone to how i want it and dont really want to do it again.
