For the SD Card read/write issue, along with the Titanium Backup issue, and you are coming from Lollipop, you NEED to wipe your SD card.

-Everything was working fine for me on this build... SD Card, TiBu, Android Pay, everything.

-I reverted back to a clean install of a Lollipop ROM (BlissPop) to test out the things that work on M to get Android Pay working (didn't work)

-Upon coming back to this M ROM, I had the TiBu issue (wouldn't even see my ancient license text file on my SD Card)

-Copied everything off my SD Card onto my computer, rebooted into recover, wipe internal storage

-Booted back into Android, copied everything back over

-For good measure, I rebooted again

-Poom, everything works like it should. TiBu, System R/W, Android Pay (after unrooting by deleting su/busybox/SuperSU.

If you didn't come from LP and are having the same issue, wipe your internal storage. Your phone and your sanity will thank you.

did you have issues flashing system.img in twrp? I cannot get it to flash

I noticed you went .tar.gz method, is this the reason?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] stetsonaw:
Are you trying to flash system.img manually, and where is it from? If it is the stock system.img, you need to use fastboot, or a tool like WugFresh's Nexus Root Toolkit.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] bond32:
Understood, I'll give it a go...

[Nexus 6 Android Development] ManikandanGuru:
I can't able to mount the system partition to R/W, I doesn't stick with it. Every time I change it to R/W, it will be automatically changed to R/O.

So, I cannot edit the build.prop file. I am using ES File Explorer with root. Any suggestions?

I thought everything was unlocked right from the beginning in this ROM.

UPDATE: Fixed it by Wiped Caches and Re-flashed this ROM again. Everything's fine. Will update if any problems found.

i know it was mentioned in the OP but is the notification led built in to the ROM or do you need the light flow app.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] r34p3rex:
I can't get the LED to work without lighflow. Also, Lightflow isn't letting me set up notifications for Facebook messenger or snapchat :( Only SMS
[Nexus 6 Android Development] kleptonez:

[Nexus 6 Android Development] r34p3rex:
Yup. It's working for SMS/Gmail, it just won't let me add any other apps
[Nexus 6 Android Development] tbonanno231:
I think I figured it out. Hangouts is removed by default in the ROM. Install it from the Play Store and the settings magically appear in the stock dialer.

Let me know if this works for you too.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] bdorr1105:
Is it normal after rebooting the phone for it to say, this device is corrupt and it can not be trusted? Then it boots just fine?

[Nexus 6 Android Development] Atmydesktyping:
OK so I just switched from pure nexus to give M a try and holy caca is this ROM smooth and fast. After I wiped clean and installed, it booted up in like 45 seconds. Everything is working on my end. No TB, SD card, or root problems. Not sure about tethering as I don't use it. Layers is working for me also. Using the inversion UI. WiFi is insanely slow. It seems like it max's out at 250kbp whereas on LTE I was getting like 900 or more. Not sure how to fix that. Also, anyone know of light flow working on M? I read users that were on the latest LP builds had trouble getting it to work again so hoping someone knows of a fix. Also I don't know why there is a search thing on the left side of the lockscreen instead of the phone quick launch. Pretty wack.

[Nexus 6 Android Development] NLBeev:
Possibly you did not wipe to factory reset before flashing a rom.

The best method is first flash M-bootloader and M-radio. Than reboot to bootloader mode and switch to TWRP recovery and wipe to factory reset.

After that flash the zip with the rom. Reboot and setup again,

[Nexus 6 Android Development] jon.s.nelson:
Yeah, worked for me on xTraSmooth's preview 3 AND the new/current build.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Xeperu:
Running this for 24 hours now. These are my observations.

1. I can do what I want, root, /system, not encrypted. It all works with the freedom I'd expect.

2. THe build in adblock is balls. Some of my apps don't work anymore and I haven't found a way to disable it.

3. It sometimes feels sluggish/wonky. Especially when opening apps. It feels less responsive than for example EuphoriaOS did on 5.1.1.

All in all the rom works fine for me, contacts sync without issue, but it needs some work in smoothing out the kinks.

I'll give another kernel a try to see if that resolves some issues.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] jaumesala:

Before flashing the rom.

Did you wipe for a factory reset in TWRP recovery?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] kleptonez:
on top of wiping before flashing the rom, after u set up, try flashing the rom again without wiping. that fixed the system RW issue for me.

[Nexus 6 Android Development] bdorr1105:
I have a question as far as Verizon users go, I have not seen an official Verizon update in forever, actually since the device came out which is absolutely ridiculous. Anyways, as far as VOLTE is concerned, I do not have the option to enable it. Is this related to the radio? Do we have to use the latest radio/modem that Verizon released to have a working VOLTE option? Thanks
[Nexus 6 Android Development] bond32:
Did you install the SuperSU 2.50?

I was having mounting problems with system too, would mount RO. So the only things I did was copy over my internal storage contents to my PC, then wiped everything - internal storage, system, data, cache...

Then copied everything back over, installed xTraSmooth 6.0, and installed SuperSU 2.50. But before all of that I also installed Chainfire's modified boot img so perhaps that's what some of you should try also.

It sucks because it takes a little while but after getting everything back up and running I can mount system as RW.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] bdorr1105:

[Nexus 6 Android Development] mohsinriaz:
i can tell you how i solved this problem when i was on 5.1.1

i use mac, so i installed mac toolkit, i replaced the included boot image with a one with NO FORCED-ENCRYPTION.

then with one click(toolkit) it installed all the partitions (including modded boot image) .

this was the only way i could successfully use No forced encryption.

because if i flashed modded boot image after installing the Original boot image, it never successfully Decrypted the user partition. even after a format (which is a step in the procedure).

let me know if youre really frustrated, this can work for you too ill give more details if needed
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Spawn026:
great rom. Ran it for 24hrs and it was silky smooth. Came across one issue but I'm going with more radio related. Wifi calling on t-mobile is broken with the latest radio. I can call out with it and it says wifi calling but no calls come in. I restored to a previous rom with the newest radio/boot and no wifi calling. went back to 05.24r and all is well. I'm going to go back to this rom and see if the problem is fixed with this radio.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Yogesh992:
yes pls give the procedure... totally frustrated with this... also tell me where i find the boot image with NO FORCED-ENCRYPTION..... and i want to use this rom...so pls give procedure step by step...thankxx in advance buddy...:confused:

I did a clean install (factory reset after I installed) from the factory images, then I dirty flashed this ROM. All working great. Can somebody tell me the steps to get Viper4Android installed with this ROM please?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nfremd:
How did you get Viper to install on this rom? Every time I flash the zip it says it's successful but when I boot up there is no viper app. The only thing I changed was the kernel, i'm running despair.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Skripka:
You have to dirty flag the ROM on top of itself... And then any other mods like kernel then root then v4a and fonts
[Nexus 6 Android Development] mohsinriaz:
i am not an expert... you ll have to do these long steps :p

before anything else, download this modded boot image for Marshmallow,

http://xdaforums.com/nexus-6/development/disable-forced-encryption-gain-root-t2946715

download flashable images for Marshmallow,

http://xdaforums.com/nexus-6/development/android-m-developer-preview-images-t3120851

i dont think it matters if its preview version (for the sake of our purpose to decrypt for now)

then flash using fasboot these images ( except for boot image, which you will flash the modded one from first link)

i believe you should be good to go after this.

if this doesnt work, then download a toolkit for mac or windows whatever you use, toolkit will, with few easy clicks, install very stock lollipop. you ll notice toolkit will have a folder with all images e.g., data img, boot img, system img, radio img, bootloader img.

all you need to do is replace the boot image with a modded boot image from the link below,

http://xdaforums.com/nexus-6/development/disable-forced-encryption-gain-root-t2946715

then after replacing the boot img (of course after renaming so that toolkit may read it )

then start the toolkit, it will install all images including the modded boot img (with no forrced encryption)

let it boot, youll have a decrypted phone... then install this rom!!! lol

feel free to ask if i made it too difficult to understand.. its pretty simple.

in one line, replace the boot image in toolkit, and install all images.

windows toolkit lollipop http://xdaforums.com/nexus-6/development/toolkit-wugs-nexus-root-toolkit-v1-9-8-t2947452

How do we know if we have forced encryption? I thought this ROM and kernel did not have forced encryption, also I have no idea what you are talking about
[Nexus 6 Android Development] ucpro:
Get a build.prop editor, I use https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jrummy.apps.build.prop.editor

find the line that says "ro.build.user" and change the property value to userdebug

Reboot, then in developer options, you'll see the toggle to turn multiwindow on
[Nexus 6 Android Development] mohsinriaz:
This Rom doesn't encrypt, but if you have installed the factory image of just released marshmallow (stock) it will put your phone to encryption.

Kernel isn't responsible for encryption. It's the boot image, which encrypt device(user data partition) on first boot.

That's why you need to flash No_force_encrypt_boot.img instead of stock boot img , before the first boot.

And what did you not understand? Do you know what a toolkit is? Do you know how to use fastboot commands? Do you know what image files are? If you don't know any of these, then it's really hard to explain here. I can offer you step by step guidance on whatsapp if you like.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] bdorr1105:
I know how to use the toolkit as well as perform the fastboot flash commands,

What I am confused on is what exactly do I need to do, the link you provided only shows lollipop images, nothing for marshmallow
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nfremd:
Thanks for that, is there a certain order? Permissive first then viper?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] mohsinriaz:
Brother... I pasted the link for marshmallow boot image as well. The first link.

Everyone will tell you to flash that (modded) boot image via fastboot. And then simply format the userdata partition using fastboot, "fastboot format userdata" before the first boot. This should technically solve your issue.

This method didn't work for me.. That's why I told you to revert to lollipop and decrypt your lollipop, then install XtroStoLite. This will keep XtroStoLite decrypted.

doesnt matter; flash them both in the same session though
[Nexus 6 Android Development] mohsinriaz:
WiFi speed depends on your landline /dsl connection speed. LTE is faster if internet connection behind wifi router is slow.

Encryption reduces performance to many folds. I would always recommend un encrypted phone for better performance. I don't care about extra security.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Skripka:
My problem was I tried to replace the baked in GApps with the TBO themable ones...which don't work on M as I found out. ONLY use the baked in GApps and ones off Google's own servers for now.

Odds are your problem is in what you flashed.

Using Hell's Core kernel, I only flashed the v4a AIO and it works.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] bdorr1105:
ok thanks for all the info you been providing...So what is the check and balance? How do I know any of it actually worked? How do I verify my status now. I formated the data partion in TWRP in Lollipop, I though that it decrypted the filesystem when you did that? anyway, soryry for the questions...

If I did the method you said didn't work for you, how do you know it doesn't work? What verifies that you are decrypted?

FYI. the link you have posted, the 1st one, it says for marshmallow, however, its all for old lollipop images
[Nexus 6 Android Development] wase4711:
Nothing could be farther from the truth; un-encrypting your phone gives you almost ZERO increase in performance; you can ask around on XDA, and 99% of people will tell you not to bother, since you won't notice ANY significant performance increase, and, of course, you open up your phone to all sorts of nasty stuff, so, I wouldn't bother, and I've been modding phones for over 20 years..
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Atmydesktyping:
Well that's the thing my internet is a lot faster than my LTE network. It is super slow now after I flashed this ROM so I'm guessing I was decrypted before. I've read you have to flash a decrypt.img through fastboot to actually unencrypt it. Are there any flashable files we can use through recovery? Don't have a comp right now and sorry for the noob questions :p
[Nexus 6 Android Development] mohsinriaz:
I'm not an expert, I read articles and compared benchmark results. And it's all over the internet, that encryption reduces read write speeds.
