Feedback may be too late, but I just updated my 6P using FF and the NRD90M OTA zipfile. Normally I update from the stock image but couldn't wait for the full images to drop. Stock, rooted systemless coming from MTC20F. If you select "flash OTA" you don't get to select partitions, so be sure you do NOT use the "flash image" option. Only setting I used was "preserve boot and recovery" which I didn't think was correct, but after carefully reading the notes it was... at least for me. YMMV. It preserved my recovery partition (restored TWRP) so I did not need to reflash that. Root appears to be working fine. Just kicking it around the first 30 minutes but after rebooting twice, everything appears to be working without a hitch. Best of luck.

Edit: I neglected to mention I was unencrypted before and the flashing/ update process didn't change it. No intervention on my part was required to preserve that. It's been a concern of mine in the past, so thought it was worth mentioning.

FlashFire crashes at 62% scan of Fire phone 4.6.6.1 update...

Noob here, so pardon my ignorance.

A. Here is the lastlog at pastebin:

hxxp://pastebin.com/7sStcseH

Just replace hxxp by http. Still under the 10 post min restriction as Junior member !

(But noticed a line saying selinux policy not found after the ChainFire copyright notice, 2004-2016. And in the end series of unmount notifications.)

B. Problem: I have a regular Firephone 32GB with no SD card, and running OS 4.6.3 with the updates turned off ( update file renamed.) Rooted with Kingoroot, and replaced by SU.

Also have GApps installed since Sep 2015 ( seemed auto-updated recently) and Xposed installer plus XPrivacy, and also latest Chainfire Super User SU v2.76 installed.

SU v2.76 zip and the latest Firephone OS v4.6.6.1 bin from Amazon site are downloaded in the Downloads folder. FlashFire Pro v.52 is my OS update method.

To update OS, I go to Flash Firmware menu, then select the OS v4.6.6.1 bin file. The scan just stops at about 62% and I get back the Firephone apps screen from where I invoked FlashFire app.

(The log file shows some activity with Dalvik cache.)

I also used the Flash zip/ OTA menu. It results in a blank screen which stays blank. I then have to press Power + Volume +- to reboot into the existing 4.6.3 OS.

Tried a few times. Any solutions???

Just successfully updated to Android N with flashfire on my Pixel C, so I went ahead to do the same on the wifes Nexus 9.

I now have the 'No Command' android symbol and am unable to boot or go into twrp.

Not sure if this is user error or a bug?

Cheers and thanks for the great app!

Reloaded twrp and restore my backup and removed passcode from rom just in case, but till happened on the second time of trying.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Chainfire:
I'm not sure whether your issue is FlashFire related or not, but I've read elsewhere (AP? Reddit? I don't remember) that the Nexus 9 images are failing for some people flashing the traditional way as well.

NP has an x86 chip. FlashFire supports only ARM chips at the moment.

Arrh I see; thanks for that.

I have now installed standard recovery and have allowed the ota to complete and I have N, but trying to reinstall twrp gives me the same error as before when trying to get into twrp. Very odd.

Of course I have lost root, so more googling I feel :).

Edit: Just realised! Its of course encrypted my tablet now, whereas before it wasn't and a quick google shows twrp not updated for encrypted N yet (of course, being so early).

Can I update my 6P from MM to Android N (OTA or Factory Image as soon as possible) with Flashfire without losing root and data?

Any suggestion?

Thanks.

Trying to flash 7.0 via FlashFire but the OTA zip won't flash. It was it cannot flash over newer software or something. I'm running a custom ROM chroma. Is that the issue? What can I do so I can flash 7.0? Thanks

Nexus 6P
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Giozer:
Thank you for your answer.

Some questions:

1) before flashing Android N OTA I have to do some wipe with recovery? or I can make the flash directly on MM?

2) when I flash the Ota.zip file with Flashfire should I choose a few options: Auto-mount? Mount / system read / write? Restore boot and recovery images?

3) Before flashing OTA I have to update the TWRP recovery in version 3.0.2-1. How should I do it? Via PC ?.

3) before flashing Android N I have to uninstall the Xposed by flashing Uninstaller with Flashfie ?

Thank you.

You can't use OTA to get stock from custom ROM, you need factory image...

OTA update, complete or partial, can't be used for that, because it checks installed version...
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] rajlulla:
Hey all,

I'm using a Nexus 6P currently on Resurrection Remix ROM and ElementalX Kernel. I want to install Android N without losing root and was wondering how to do that. I was originally thinking that I could install 6.0.1 using the firmware package option then take the OTA to go to Android N. Would going that path make me lose root or cause any problems? Also, when I'm in the firmware flashing options in FlashFire, what options do I choose if I don't want to lose my data. Thanks in advance for any help!

How do you create an odin flashabe file for the protected partitions in a tar.md5 in Flashfire?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] bacardiandwatermelon:
Everything looks good so far, since I don't have a Sammy phone anymore, I am keen to try this out on my Sony. I know it was more of a good will gesture, but as I can't run mobile oden pro anymore, it won't automatically upgrade to pro. I know the free loader tick is there, and I have no idea if there are better methods to checking payment history. Either way, you are still one of my favourite developers out there. It is probably time I resupported you and got pro later on anyways, thanks for all the hard work.

Edit: After rereading everything it looks like this might be expected behaviour as the pro doesn't do anything yet. After trying again *properly*... Having the mobile oden pro app installed drops the pro upgrade price.

Problems with Safestrap ROM slots and ChainFire

I originally tried to follow these steps while ROM Slot 1 was active under safestrap. Chainfire started up with the message "Enumerating Partitions", and got stuck there.

Once I activated the Stock ROM slot in Safestrap, this problem resolved itself and I was able to flash the rooted lollipop ROM successfully.

I would love if Aroma will be fully supported in future as my cleaner project fully relies on the Aroma Installer.

I'm not sure how Chainfire is handling Aroma scripts. Is it interpreting the content of the script or is it a virtual recovery environment. In case it is a virtual recovery environment it's probably only a question of time until Aroma is fully working as well. I'm excited to see how FlashFire will further develop and hope for full Aroma support in the future.

Thanks Chainfire for this great tool!

Am I the only person who can't get FlashFire to run on a G900A running 4.4.2 rooted? I have tried everything I can think of, but it still force closes as soon as I start a backup (crashes when the selection of what type of backup is to be made), or when I touch "Flash Firmware package" or "flash zip". It enumerates the partitions perfectly.

I really want install rooted Lollipop, but want even more to get Flashfire installed, since it looks to be so much easier and more intuitive than the alternatives.

I'm a relative newbie and so don't really know what I'm supposed to attach in order to resolve this, so if anyone can help, I'll really appreciate it.

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] ryderov:
I'm having this exact issue with a 6p. ADB connects and works fine otherwise. As soon as FlashFire reboots into its backup environment, the phone is never connected to. You can hear Windows chime low and high pitch as the phone reboots. High for connected, low for something being disconnected. It can start off connected in Windows, phone starts booting into FlashFire, then disconnect (low pitch)... reconnect (high pitch)..... disconnect (low) and then it never reconnects once it reaches the final stage where it tells you the commands to type in for the adb pull.

This comes from the FlashFire documentation on his site.

https://flashfire.chainfire.eu/actions/backup/

I think the issue is somehow related to this bug, though I followed what it instructed exactly.

Anyone have an idea?

[cont'd]

Ok, so once FlashFire boots to backup, the phone is still seen by the computer in device manager, but with a yellow triangle exclamation over it for some reason. It isn't like this otherwise, being unique to FlashFire.

1) before flashing Android N OTA I have to do some wipe with recovery? or I can make the flash directly on MM?

No wipe was necessary for me at all. I flashed from latest Stock august ROM to N OTA. Go ahead

2) when I flash the Ota.zip file with Flashfire should I choose a few options: Auto-mount? Mount / system read / write? Restore boot and recovery images?

I flashed it using ADB sideload in TWRP. Doing it in stock recovery will work too. Have not used Flashfire so can't comment on this

3) Before flashing OTA I have to update the TWRP recovery in version 3.0.2-1. How should I do it? Via PC ?.

Absolutely, if not older versions of TWRP like 3.0.2 will fail to decrypt the data partitions. Only 3.0.2-1 fixed that. You can flash the TWRP image via fastboot/flashfire .

3) before flashing Android N I have to uninstall the Xposed by flashing Uninstaller with Flashfie ?

I didn't do that, but flashing stock boot.img would have removed Xposed. Xposed is still not supported in N so I don't have Xposed at the moment

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] xabier-bo:
Flashfire has been my best recent discovery, as it makes the mobile more independent from computer, and of course because it manages so smartly all the flashing actions.

As a result now I am keeping on stock recovery and use fastboot boot twrp in few occasions.

And therefore my question/request: is there (or it could have implemented) a way to boot into an img recovery without flashing it? (equivalent to fastboot boot)

Hi, i recently installed FlashFire latest version from Play Store over my Samsung S4 (rooted) and I would like to upgrade the stock version to 4.4.2 (that is the last version available for my S4 T-Mobile Model SGH-M919. Before doing so, i would like to have a backup for which when I choose any type of backup and when presses the Flash button, the phone shows files, shows loading and then phone restarts without doing any thing.

When the phone restarts, all the apps got crazy and then I have to lunch recovery and then reboot the device from recovery, after which the phone gets normal. My question is Am i doing something wrong or I got the unstable version?

Would appreciate the response. Thanks.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] ktmom:
As far as I know, the last update by Google for the 10 was in April (LMY49J). If you are not on that version (stock but rooted, right?), then use the factory image to get there.

If a device is not on the most recent OTA, the next one won't apply. Usually with an error like you are seeing. This isn't a failure of FF, but regrets the incremental nature of the OTA updates. You could, if fully stock other than root, apply each OTA in succession, but that's a lot of work. Easier to just use the factory image.

Not necessarily a FlashFire-related problem, and without a logfile as specified in the first post, there's likely nothing to be done about it.

A standard question to those who have first boot problems after flashing a ROM: Did you wipe Cache, Dalvik/ART and Data? If not, you might have to either wipe Cache and Dalvik/ART or all three in order to get it to boot. You might want to post about this problem in your device Q&A section if that doesn't solve it.
