I left my cache the same, but i flashed M dirty from M preview 3

"One of the few custom ones that replace the ramdisk with their own" being which?.. Anykernel has spread like a damn plague
[Nexus 6  General] toledodj:
Will flashing the update while carrier locked mess up the phone? Or is this a universal image?
[Nexus 6  General] djkinetic:
Reflash the rom clean, system rw and layers work, for multi window you need to edit the build prop. Do some research.. Here's some screenshots for proof things are working, not all things mite be working, but some of the things you pointed out are. Just because you can't get it to work doesnt mean it doesnt work for others:

Layers enabled about screen:

Multiwindow Option:

Multi-window and System RW Enabled:

https://drive.google.com/open?id=0Bx-Q0UuRWPxjTFZKeElWa0RHcnc
[Nexus 6  General] Lemagex:
Already have

I know about editing the build prop, and i know layers work. System RW isn't working for me though.

Research on what? I'm talking about my device

I see no screenshots, it's asking me to request permission from you to view them.
[Nexus 6  General] djkinetic:
you do understand what system rw is right? it means the kernel has disabled the protection on /system allowing you to make changes to that specific directory. By default M disables write access. If RW was not disabled layers would not work as the folder that layers get installed to /system/vendor/overlay gets erased while system rw protection is active on reboot. So you saying that system RW doesnt work for is incorrect, it is working as if it wasnt you couldnt make those changes. Do you understand??
[Nexus 6  General] Lemagex:
I understand that, but the only thing working for me is layers. I cannot edit anything else under system with the use of terminal or root explorer at all. not even build.prop on xtra
[Nexus 6  General] djkinetic:
thats odd, did you flash another kernel than what came with the rom? b7 hellscore came packaged and it disables system rw protection. One thing you might want to do is clean flash the factory images from google then re flash xtra. What i did earlier today was clean flash the whole factory image and then clean flashed xtra when it became available.
[Nexus 6  General] Lemagex:
I'm using the one that came with it, did another clean flash and no dice. Layers aren't working after a clean flash either. I'm gonna try again.

[Nexus 6  General] SymbioticGenius:
Apparently if you have animations disabled it prevents you from activating system ui. Googled it lol
[Nexus 6  General] Sid_dominic56:
Same for me. A restart will fix it.
[Nexus 6  General] suku_patel_22:
Suggest to go back to fastboot mode and flash the cache.img. Your cache partition is missing now.
[Nexus 6  General] freesoul27:
Thanks, it worked
[Nexus 6  General] coldconfession13:
Do we have a thread that shows you how to get rid of that annoying screen when u root or on a custom rom. Slows the boot up process. Seems like a pain to search all these post.
[Nexus 6  General] nms247:
The partition won't be missing, it'll just be empty flashing the cache.img does the same thing
[Nexus 6  General] Lemagex:
Disregard everything I said about system RW, the tip to clean flash from stock factory image again worked. Thanks [MENTION=3721565]djkinetic[/MENTION]
[Nexus 6  General] istperson:
I've built a kernel from the AOSP source. The only modification is to allow root. I've modifed the noforceencrypt image posted by iRub1Out and also the stock boot.img to use this kernel. And there's the kernel itself.

Don't anybody worry for it having the "dirty" tag, it only means that modification used to allow root is not committed back to git.

Guys,

I can not copy my files to internal storage, the pc shows nexus 6 but no folders are visible and doesn't let me copy my stuff :(
[Nexus 6  General] istperson:
Check if USB is charging only. If it is switch to MTP.
[Nexus 6  General] stumpy352:
So, I guess the the colour profile thing they talked about in the system ui tuner didn't make it to the final build? Or can I just not find it?
[Nexus 6  General] Semseddin:
I don't see an option for it in Storage & Usb settings.
[Nexus 6  General] suku_patel_22:
Once the USB is connected, there would be a notification. That should have the options.
[Nexus 6  General] Semseddin:
Thanks man, :good: didn't notice there was a hidden notification there, just dropped the notifications it is there. I was thinking about downgrading to 5.1.1 :p

Anyone notice file transfer speed from pc to n6 is slow as hell ?
[Nexus 6  General] neyenlives:
I have mtp enabled and still don't have USB data connectivity.

Battery life is already much better and I'm using bone stock kernel, no root, nothing..

Any idea how I can make titanium backup work? It tries to read the backups from /storage/emulated/legacy, but when I set it to use storage/emulated/0, it doesn't work at all. Am rooted with supersu 2.49 using latest elementalx on stock M image.

how to get titanium work? crashing when restoring an app
[Nexus 6  General] jodvova:
I did flash this and Despair 31.2 kernel on top and still get the triangle on boot.

I did a clean flash of 6 version.
[Nexus 6  General] Peylix:
Can't get layers to work.

I have HellScore b7-m flashed and used TWRP to flash the newest SuperSU. All my other root apps work. Not Layers though.

What is going on?
[Nexus 6  General] Lemagex:
go to titanium backup settings, go preferences, go backup folder location, hit "back" until you get to root (/) then go /mnt/sdcard/titaniumbackup and itll work. that's what i had to do even on preview. it tries to mount legacy instead.

Anyone have problem with wireless encrypted with WEP password?

After clean install to 6.0, scanning Wifi doesn't see my wireless encrypted with WEP password. Tried to add it manualy - no success.

I have Dreambox who can only connect to WIFI if it has WEP encryption, so I must have WEP.

Marshmallow doesn't have support for WEP wireless?!
[Nexus 6  General] Lemagex:
Layers only works when the commits have been merged to the rom, stock doesn't support it (natively) Xtrasmooth has it added.

---------- Post added at 10:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:33 PM ----------

works for me, try wipe wireless settings on android. (Search in settings)
[Nexus 6  General] Peylix:
It was supposed to be added stock to 6.0. The Dev previews had it. Did they take it out for the final?
[Nexus 6  General] Lemagex:
Make sure you didn't push any files with ADB before booting into the rom. That will cause permission errors, I went into TWRP and ran Advanced > Fix Permissions
[Nexus 6  General] Lemagex:
I think they did. It didn't work for me on stock either.
[Nexus 6  General] Peylix:
I remember seeing in an earlier post (this thread or the release thread) that they narrowed it down to r/w being locked for root. The newest HC kernel gets rid of that.
[Nexus 6  General] jodvova:
Guys, any hints on how to fix triangle on boot and gain RW on /system without flashing different ROM?
[Nexus 6  General] Face_Plant:
You need a custom kernel. There's no way around it yet.
[Nexus 6  General] tr3mm0r:
It seems now on tap doesn't work for me. All it does is open the Google now panel after I long press the home button. Any ideas?
[Nexus 6  General] Highway 55:
I found this one on page 104 of the Elite Kernel thread. I am using it and have RW in /system. I believe Hellscore replaces the ramdisk as well.

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347830445
[Nexus 6  General] Face_Plant:
Did you enable it in Google Now settings? It is off by default. What country are you in? Now on Tap is only available in a few countries right now.
[Nexus 6  General] tr3mm0r:
Yes I did. I live in the UK although I am using Polish as a system language.
[Nexus 6  General] Face_Plant:
I think there was a post a few pages back saying Now on Tap only works with English right now.
[Nexus 6  General] tr3mm0r:
Will double check in a minute.

Update. Indeed it does work in English. Shame...
[Nexus 6  General] Lemagex:
Now on tap doesn't support Polish right now
[Nexus 6  General] phoenixus:
The rub is that I relocked my bootloader. Can I flash cache.img without unlocking again?
[Nexus 6  General] jodvova:
I flashed custom kernel from Despair, doesn't seem to fix it.
[Nexus 6  General] suku_patel_22:
See if you can fastboot boot twrp and wipe/format cache. If not, unlocking is your only option.
[Nexus 6  General] istperson:
This was added to the fstab.shamu: /system ..... verify=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/metadata

So probably it's not the kernel but the fstab too. But there's something called "verity" in the kernel too. But the images with the big red triangle are in the ramdisk. (verity_red_1.png and verity_red_2.png).

Sincerely I don't mind this, because it only shows for like 5 seconds, and IMHO if it wasn't you who tampered with the device then it's better to know.
[Nexus 6  General] Pecata:
Well, here is my question-I am unlocked and rooted on 5.1.1-last night I flashed 6.0 with NRT without deleting user data and everything worked fine-I wanted to see if my phone will run slower if encrypted-so I didn't bother creating a non-encrypted image-I don't get any of the warnings and it doesn't even ask me for my pattern when booting up....Am I missing something-I don't get the green, yellow, orange or red message....
[Nexus 6  General] coldconfession13:

[Nexus 6  General] istperson:
It's interesting, that in the build.prop the default value for the USB connection is MTP, yet it always reverts to charging, regardless if USB debugging is on or off.
[Nexus 6  General] MG386:
I had same problem. USB was set to MTP and wasn't working. I cycled to ptp and back to mtp, benn working ever since.
[Nexus 6  General] Joe92T:
Google is really going all out with the RW Permissions in the Kernal with M6.0 huh?

I think for those Non-Nexus / Play Devices.. AKA im looking at you Samsungs / Motorolas with Encrypted Bootloaders and no ability to change the kernal.. this may squash the ability to get basic root access completely... At least in the past even with a locked BL., they could get basic root
[Nexus 6  General] Peylix:
I got Layers working on stock!

Running Hellscore B7, SuperSU, BusyBox.

Make sure you have enough room in the /system partition.

[Nexus 6  General] madphone:
I'm a bit disappointed about the final release. Wouldn't have thought Google would skip that many features, compared to m preview 1.

but the most frustrating fact is, that Google decided not go give us the new camera App. After the Nexus 6 was the first Phone to be released with Camera API 2 support, i couldn't imagine that we will never get a Google camera using the new API, even after a year.

Pretty sure you have to be rooted for this to work on the NEXUS 6 (at least on 5.1.1 you did). Dont really wanna root 6.0 just yet
[Nexus 6  General] guthrien:
I agree, I'm pretty nonplussed by this release so far. It's nice to see a few (very few) ideas from custom ROMs, and hopefully the doze changes amount to something significant, but this is evolutionary upgrade that doesn't seem to merit a new name and number.
[Nexus 6  General] jodvova:
Yes, you need root for it to work.
[Nexus 6  General] istperson:
It seems that TWRP backup and restore don't work yet. I've built an AOSP image today, and it also was a disaster, but for different reasons, something's wrong with the blobs, and it didn't see the SIM. I said okay, lets restore, but it died after rebooting. I had to flash all the images one by one, and restore from Titanium.
[Nexus 6  General] GTvert90:
I tried searching and couldn't find it. I'm having trouble connecting to Windows to move files over, it shows nexus 6 but doesn't show any storage. Worked fine before 6.0 I remember seeing a link somewhere to a fix

[Nexus 6  General] Smallsmx3:
I agree, although I'll need a couple of cycles just be sure it's accurately reporting. I've pretty much been on preview 3 so it wasn't much of a surprise to me. Allot happened under the hood. All the annoying builds from LP are finally combined , which I'm sure was no small feat. Hopefully all the small quirks are fixed.

[Nexus 6  General] SymbioticGenius:
Wasn't a lot of visual changes but a whole lot of under the hood stuff. Even from preview the I'm noticing additional smoothness etc. I don't think there's any additional battery from preview 3 but it's way too soon to tell. Otherwise, I'm very happy with it and it's almost making me regret ordering that 6P lol... Almost.

[Nexus 6  General] jamexman:
Mine is the same, project Fi though. I thinks its normal. Remember your battery will improve over time, marshmallow is still "learning" your apps battery optimization ( you can see it on battery, tap the three dots, battery itemization etc). I'm impressed on the battery life compared to Lollipop.
[Nexus 6  General] scryan:
On a whim decided to try out M. Pretty sure I'll be trying to get back to an old backup in a day or two... but whatever.

Flashed bootloader, rebooted bootloader

Flashed radio, rebooted bootloader

(above as per the flash-all.sh scripts that come with the image)

Flashed system, and went ahead and flashed boot.

Flashed TWRP 2.8.7.1 from benzino thread

rebooted to recovery, then flashed benzino M2

Worked fine, just like OTA.

HOWEVER, no home button. Not sure what is up with this, but pretty sure it was previous modifications getting in the way... I had the same exact thing happen when I flashed back to stock 5.1.1 from Pure Nexus when the whole android pay thing came out.

So went ahead and formated userdata, cause **** it.

So now on 6.0 w/benzino kernel, no root, unecrypted, and otherwise stock. Lets see how long before I try to get back to my old backups, lol.
[Nexus 6  General] Peylix:
Knowing Google, we will probably be omitted from it. If not all the features we want not "supported" like slowmo, burst etc. Even though our hardware has been proven to be more than capable thanks to another device with the same hardware.

Though, since it will be in the code, If they are omitted, I can see some people here cooking up a fix or port.
[Nexus 6  General] bmakk2055:

[Nexus 6  General] SlowIce:
I had the same issue. Found a post to start the wizard to fix the Home button , but the wizard was not on the phone. Flashed all, flashed new kernel, flashed su and twrp. All working fine, root there, home button, custom dpi.

Had a backup so I could restore settings and data once Google reinstalled all .

Loving M so far.
[Nexus 6  General] StrizzMatik:
It is. With the M3 radio I got full LTE at my house with T Mobile / Project Fi, on 6.0 radio it's barely picking up Edge, so I'm staying on M3 radio for now.

[Nexus 6  General] kellybrf:
this may have been addressed, but I'm about 300 posts behind and on tapatalk so search sucks. the new app backup feature of marshmallow didn't seem to carry over from the previews. I skipped preview 1, but did 2 and 3 each time flashing the factory image clean. when I went from 2 to 3 almost all my app data came back, with the exception of a few apps. I was getting some odd issues a few weeks in on 3 so did another clean wipe and virtually all app data came back that time. I flashed the official build last night though and nothing was restored beyond the apps themselves. anyone else experience this and/or know why?

I manually flashed the image on my Nexus 6, everything went fine except that the boot animation is still the old one, I thought there is a new boot animation in 6.0. Can anyone confirm?
[Nexus 6  General] scryan:
Yeah there is a new boot animation.

Did you start by flashing bootloader then rebooting the bootloader before continuing as the stock "flash-all" script does?
[Nexus 6  General] jsuresh:
Yes I did. Weird that everything works fine except that I have old boot animation. I don't know if it matters, this is an at&t model that I am using on T-Mobile. I did not delete the OEM folder.

Brand new here

I'm brand new here and a first timer when it comes to rooting and flashing. Out of desperation to fix the Android 5.1.1 bug on my Nexus 6 (no mobile data when not connected to Wi-Fi) I searched high and low for directions on what I thought was rooting (but was flashing) into the latest Android 6. I completed all prerequisites (I think) and flashed the latest Android 6 onto my Nexus 6. No problems. At the time, I thought that was all apart of rooting. My questions now are can I still root my Nexus 6 and what are the proper steps I should take? I tried after successfully flashing Android 6 earlier today and panicked when I seen that "Your device is corrupted...can't be trusted" message after the SuperSU (v2.50) steps. I ended up factory resetting to fix it (still on 6.0). Sorry for the long message.
[Nexus 6  General] byrdcfmma:
You can get that message if you try to root with the stock kernal. There is a semi-stock rooted kernal in development section. That is what I used and did not get that message.

Also, you can get answers faster in the Q&A section.
[Nexus 6  General] kingston73:
I'm not trying to be rude and don't mean to offend, but honestly you really shouldn't be doing anything until you've read and re-read directions and are at least relatively comfortable in your knowledge base. It sounds like you are just randomly trying things without knowing fully what you are doing, it's things like this that can brick your phone. READ first, flash later.

---------- Post added at 03:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:56 PM ----------

I wasn't offended and I totally I agree. Again, it was done out of desperation. I'm comfortable with just the flashed Android 6. It fixed the major issue I was having and the phone is running fine. I'll do some more reading in the forums on rooting before going that route again. Thanks for the reply.
[Nexus 6  General] ethan.r.besbris:
Just chiming in here, but...

1. I'm running the latest M build (official release MRA58K)

2. I manually installed this build through factory images, I did not take an OTA.

3. I am currently running TWRP, a custom kernel, and rooted.

4. I do not get a message on boot about my system being modified or corrupted.

5. Android Pay works without issue.
