After about 10 attempts it turns out all i had to do was fastboot format cache then fastboot format userdata. Reboot and boom restored to normal. LMAO! Wasted 4 hours tonight just for that. Live and learn!

Just do a factory reset in recovery WITHOUT reflashing and the problem is taken care of.

Seems a like a bug in the factory images that can cause of wrong partition sizes.

Worked on my N9 (which I already sent back to Google due to excessive lightbleed lol)
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qnc:
I had the same issue after trying to root the phone showed 23 GB.

I was able to get back to 53 GB after wipine cache and formatting user data, but that still seems like I'm missing something . I did not check how much storage was available before I started.

Can any one tell me what the storage numbers should be on like on a stock device with nothing installed please?

Hi all Note 2 users and devs..

Want to ask a question, regarding subsymbol for Samsung Keyboard (CSC feature).

I'm using Slim WIz Rom v.4 and I can't enable the subsymbol for Samsung Keyboard.

I've tried Wanam Xposed module and others similar apps, but none of them works.

Is there another way to enable the subsymbol?

Thanks in advance..

I see Chainfire uploaded the nexus 6 flashable image today to root the nexus. Found it here. http://autoroot.chainfire.eu/

With that being said this is my first nexus device I have always been on the note series. Could someone give me step by step instuctions on how too root the nexus 6 and how to unroot it? Bring it back to 1000% stock? THANKS! :p
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
Well since you already found autoroot. All you really need to do is download the zip and execute the files corresponding to your Operating System. Everything is included in there, it will simply unlock your bootloader and then root your phone.

100% Stock... https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images -- download shamu and do the same thing there.

Unroot.. just remove SuperSU and its binaries.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cwwjr1681:
Wow dude! This is super easy compared to smasungs note using ondon. Worrying about knox flags ect ect. Samsung im done! Hello Nexus =D

How do I lock the bootloader again tho and go back to stock one? Chainfire's file unlocked it but how do you relock it?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
Thats the joy of devices with a unlockable bootloader. The process is fairly simple and easy to do :) Toolkits aren't present at this time, but its very easy to do without toolkits that I encourage people to manually root their N6 as it isn't a long process when compared to other phones such as Samsung.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cwwjr1681:
removed.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cwwjr1681:
Just so I make sure I am on par here. Bricking devices are never fun.. What do I need to do

step by step

to root my nexus 6 using the file from Chainfire I downloaded?

Next what do I need to do

step by step

to relock my bootloader and go back to 100% stock now that I know where to get the stock image?

Am I going to need to install the android SDK? Or can I do this all from within windows? if I need the kit so do I just follow this video? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WEof4Rnh4oM&hd=1

Thanks in advance
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
You don't need a step-by-step.. if you're using Windows, double click the file that says windows then a window will pop up and do all the work for you.

If you want to relock your bootloader, simply just type fastboot oem lock. Please google search this stuff, even though its not Nexus 6 specific. The Nexus 5 or 4 or Galaxy Nexus threads will show you how to relock your bootloader as they're the same in terms of bootloader unlocking/locking.

Stock image.... I already linked you that.

Android fastboot etc are already included in the Auto Root zip.

Please don't overthink this, its fairly easy to do :)
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cwwjr1681:
Thank you! So I guess I will need the android SDK installed to go back to stock and lock the bootloader but not to root the device. TY
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
It could be possible you can execute the commands in the folder that consist of fastboot.exe. I wouldn't see why not assuming you have the drivers and whatnot installed.

There honestly is no point in relocking the bootloader though, just leave it unlocked. Having the bootloader locked causes too many problems if you decide to root again. Only point in relocking the bootloader is for warranty purposes.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wtherrell:
Just heard that Wugfresh has updated his popular tool kit to include Nexus 6.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
I don't endorse using toolkits. Its already easy to do without one plus by using a toolkit you don't learn the skills of using adb/fastboot which is very important. See http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-nexus/general/dangers-tool-kits-one-click-root-t1469909 for full details.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wtherrell:
I started with a toolkit. Worked fine. Then my natural curiosity led me to learn adb/fast boot, which I prefer. For some, however, a good tool kit is a godsend. You probably still use ms Dos, python scripts, etc. for some things as do I. For a beginner, though, it can help to show them the awesomeness of Android with the freedom of an unlocked bootloader. Then the serious ones will likely stick around and gravitate to finding out how it all works.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jeimygirl:
I never rooted my N5 or even unlocked the bootloader, first Android that I never Rooted! It's been over a year since I've done any type of root so I feel like I've never done it! So please excuse my noobness in this but....

When I get my phone in hand, is this the very first thing I should do before even setting anythign up??

Instructions:

Step 1: Download the CF-Auto-Root zip file and extract the contents to a folder. We prefer placing these files on the desktop for easier access.

Step 2: Power off your Nexus 6, and boot the device into bootloader mode. To do so, hold down the Volume Down button and the Power button.

Step 3: Once you see the “Restart bootloader” message on the phone, let go of the keys and tap “Restart bootloader” to enter bootloader mode.

Step 4: Plug in the Nexus 6 to the PC or Mac and navigate to the location of the extracted contents.

Step 5: Now we need to run the automated root script.

For Windows:

Simply run the “root-windows.bat” file.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
Your steps are correct. However, when you Power on the phone with volume down + power there is no need to go to restart bootloader because you'll already be in bootloader mode.

For me, I did those same steps as you but I also had to install the USB drivers while in fastboot because auto root wasn't detecting my phone in bootloader mode.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jeimygirl:
OK I have unlocked. Anything else I should do for now? Or am I good to start setting up my phone?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
You're good, you can root your phone and all that jazz if you wish to do so.

I just received iSmooth's Ultra Clear HD screen protector for the Nexus 6. Although I've had great success with iSmooth screen protectors in the past, the HD screen protector for the Nexus 6 is horrible. It doesn't cover the entire screen and the cut outs along the top (for the top speaker and the camera) don't line up at all.

Has anyone else tried this screen protector on the Nexus 6 and experienced the same result as I did?

Well I reached out to support and they said they are aware of the problem. All they needed was for me to e-mail them with my name, address, and order number. Once they make a revision they will ship out new ones free of charge. They said the problem is that they used CAD files supplied to them by Motorola, but they never had a real Nexus 6 in house for testing. Apparently the CAD files were off a few millimeters.

[General Questions and Answers] isitfree:
Does anyone know ANYTHING about the T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S5 (SM-G900T)? i've gone through endless forums page after page trying to find out why my S5 tells me the File System: "Generic Hierarchical" when connected to my computer AND doesn't have a drive letter. Every other phone i connect to my pc comes up with a FAT32 file system & typically shows a drive letter J: as i have 2 ROMs, 3 HDDs, and a card reader installed. i've posted this question about a month ago and got no answer as to what could have happened to my S5 or any possible solutions to fixing the issue. i've tried every permission fix app on the Google Play Store, manually editing permissions, reverting back to a stock firmware, formatting the SD Card via phone & computer (with formatting programs) and i still cant access my SD Card. I've also tried using various sized SD Cards from 2gb-16gb in every format type which doesnt work either. I know it's not the SD Cards because they work fine in my ZTE Score, LG Vortex, BlackBerry Storm, and in a PalmONE palm pilot. is there anyone out there that wants to shed some light on this frustrating dilemma i've encountered? My Galaxy S5 tries to mount the SD Card but always returns with a "blank or unsupported filesystem" message after the check is completed. my last resort was to reformat the S5's hard drive, but i was told that i will need a special device to access my phone again if i do. SOMEONE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AudaxNovus:
Hi,

I have an LG Nexus 5 (KTU84P, or "hammerhead") running Android KitKat 4.4.4. It is rooted using Chainfire's AutoRoot for the Nexus 5 for Android 4.4.4, and I have no custom ROM, simply Vanilla Android but with SuperSU. I am looking to update to Android L, version 5, and I have received a notification for the OTA update.

I understand that with OTA updates, your data will not be wiped, but you will lose root access. I have researched ways to keep the root, but they only appear to be for older versions of Android. I understand that I will lose root.

My question is, will I have to run the "oem unlock" (which I understand is the part of the whole rooting process which actually wipes your device), or will I just have to load Chainfire's AutoRoot? If I go through with it, I will use his AutoRoot for hammerhead for Android L, but basically my end goal is to root and update and not lose any data.

Thanks, if you need more info, let me know?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frenziedfemale:
Autoroot will not wipe your data if your bootloader is already unlocked. Only if your bootloader was locked to begin with.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] musclehead84:
Nope. Once unlocked it stays unlocked unless you lock it yourself
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AudaxNovus:
Thank you both very much! :D
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Of course with L you can no longer get the OTA if you have custom recovery. Just incase you weren't aware
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AudaxNovus:
I have updated OTA, and I kept EVERYTHING, even my root apps, but when I open up SuperSU I get a notification explaining that the Su binary is not installed, which is obviously removed when updating. Now, I'm just backing up my data. Another thing I would like to confirm is, if I use Chainfire's Auto Root for the Nexus 5 running Android 5.0, will it run OEM unlock again, and if it does, will I be affected considering my bootloader is already unlocked?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
If its unlocked, it can't be unlocked again.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] D3abL3:
Just a little info, afaik, if you update from KK to L and had an unlocked bootloader ('oem unlock'), like I did, your bootloader will get locked again after update, as it did with me.

So that "if it was unlocked it'll stay unlocked" is not correct.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Odd. Hasn't locked for anyone else afaik
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
There's a REALLY easy way to test that theory.

Open the factory image archives and check the script. Unless it runs 'fastboot oem lock' it isn't relocking it.

hello fellow xda junkies!

HERE IS A SIMPLE WAY TO GET DATA TETHERING THROUGH BUILD.PROP EDIT

NOTE:MESSING WITH BUILD.PROP COULD MESS YOUR PHONE UP BE CAREFUL

Step 1.) download a text editor.i suggest 920 text editor.

Step 2.) you will also need an root explorer so download that also.

Step 3).open up your root explorer and navigate to system/build.prop. and copy that file to another directory. i.e example sdcard/download.then rename

original build.prop file to build.prop.bak

Step 4).open up your text editor and navigate to the directory where you copied the build.prop file

Step 5.)look for this line [they are both close to the end of the build.prop file] "net.tethering.nonprovisioning=true" [once you find it change the true

to false] so it reads "net.tethering.nonprovisioning=false" NOTE:DDO NOT TYPE THE QUOTATION MARKS!!!

Step 6.) " look for line "persist.data.tethering_oc=1" change the variable 1 to 0 so it reads "persist.data.tethering_oc=0

Step 7.) move the build.prop file that you copied and edited from location you placed it in to its rightful spot in system/.change permissions to rw--r--r

reboot phone and your good to go!works on my vs985 LIKE A CHAMP.

A.L.B/E.B.B
[Verizon LG G3] tech_head:
Actually not.

Instead of trying to stop the thermal mitigation from working I did just the opposite, I changed the parameters on how it operates.

The file /system/etc/thermal-engine-8974.conf.

This file controls what happens to cpu speed at various temperatures.

That is what you tweak and it just works.

I also used ROM Toolbox to change the governor.

Thank you but...

First of all, thanks for the post. Although I appreciate the helpful post, my phone is now stuck in boot loop :mad:. I hate to be the one to open up an old thread but I'm freaking out at the moment due to brick fever :crying: My current setup was a rooted LG G3 VS98512b. My goal was simple, I didn't want to do anything crazy, I just wanted to enable wifi tether now I'm afraid I've lost everything... Is there a way I can get back into the storage of my phone and delete the modified build.prop, remove the ".bak" from the original and be back to the good life? Any assistance is greatly appreciated, this seemed like such a simple modification that led to such a big headache.
[Verizon LG G3] trent999:
It sounds like you might have used an editor on your build.prop that could not handle the file size, resulting in your editted build.prop being truncated. Otherwise, maybe your permissions were left wrong. Either of these will cause your phone to bootloop.
[Verizon LG G3] soundmasterx:
Thanks for the reply. I used the editor recommended in the tutorial, 920 text editor. I followed the instructions word for word, I don't know what the problem is. Maybe its because I have the newest update and this mod was for 10b???As far as the permissions, the phone asked automatically if I wanted to change the permissions. The original build.prop is still there... is there a way I can delete the modified build.prop and replace it with the original? I really wish I would not have followed this tut, it didn't seem like a popular method. There has to be a way to delete the modified build.prop right?
[Verizon LG G3] Digital_MD:
Yes you can reflash the firmware or if you don;t want to restore to stock you can use ADB to fix the files and restore your .bak
