[RECOVERY][angler] TWRP 2.8.7.2 touch recovery [2015-11-06]
[Nexus 6P Android Development] hltbest:
I've currently got it running on your ROM with ElementalEx and I've had no issues. At the moment only using greenify and youtube adaway. Haven't tried any others.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] VanGolfer:
Hi: so this rom can not be used on MDB08L model, right? Please anyone can confirm, thanks!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] micmars:
Of course it can...you just posted this question in the Chroma thread, worded almost the same way...anyway, flash the vendor partition zip in TWRP here (be sure to thank [MENTION=4395895]BeansTown106[/MENTION] for this)...

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=43551

Then download and flash the rom as described in the OP.

Good luck!

Test version of gravitybox is already up:D
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Stretlow:
Finally got mine routed on the third attempt.

I've flashed roms on my last 3 nexus's but im not sure what this "Vendor" stuff is.

Im currently running stock rooted, am I required to flash this?

Thanks in advance
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Stephen:
The vendor folder is google's way of changing things up a bit! On the Nexus 6 it is located as in most other phones under /system/vendor. This is easy to include in ROMS and doesnt pose any issues. In the 6P they decided to move it to its own root partition for some reason. /vendor. You only need to flash it, if your current rom version does not match the one you are downloading., If it does your all good, just flash the rom.

Guys if there are any errors in version 2.2.0, dont worry about it. I spotted a couple when porting the new aroma installer across on to my N6ShamuM rom. I'll have a new version 2.2.1 which will be released tomorrow evening, that fixes all the errors.

Nice! When it is official, I'll add it into my ROM. I have been looking for it, got a link?

EDIT: Never mind! Found it :D Will get it added into the next version
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Stretlow:
Thanks for the response mate.

How would one know if it was needed ( Rom version )

Sorry for the questions i just dont want to screw it up for something simple
[Nexus 6P Android Development] galaxys:
MDB08M is the correct build, check your About Phone in Settings.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Stretlow:
Oh right sorry. Yes I'm already on the above build, this means no need to flash the vendor file, yes?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] micmars:
[MENTION=4395895]BeansTown106[/MENTION] has a flashable version of the vendor image...you can find it here...

Edit: dw fixed it just had to reinstall the apk
[Nexus 6P Android Development] wooddale:
I'm on Beans ROM now working fine I flashed image so I'm assuming if I try this I won't need to flash. Its the M image right? Thanks
[Nexus 6P Android Development] waqar.qu:
Is a dirty flash cool?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] micmars:
Yup, as long as your build number is MDB08M, upon which both PureNexus and NP6Angler are based, there is no need whatsoever to flash the vendor image again.

It's Uber cool...it shows an innate will to power with which Zarathustra would have been impressed.

But yeah, I would...

1. Backup your current setup

2. Wipe cache and dalvik partitions

3. Flash rom, plus any custom kernel you may wish to select if Lean of stock aren't what you want

4. Reboot

5. Profit

You'll likely have to re-download any stored music from Google Play Music, etc, as a first install of Xposed tends to trigger that event, but you should be safe without having to wipe systems or data.

Clean flash if the above doesn't work.

Mine was L and it never made sense until I read some post from you. I had no idea about the vendor img and have no understanding about it. Can some one direct me to a page or forum where its explained please and thank you.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jdub251:
Are we still odexed there [MENTION=2746542]Stephen[/MENTION]? Your rom has been the most buttery, bestest battery of them all lol!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] micmars:
The newer 64 bit architecture seems to have a separate vendor partition...this used to be part of the system partition...for instance, my Nexus 9 has a separate vendor partition.

As to precisely what it is, consider it a batch of files that are particular to the build for your device.

The practical implications of this are that in order to run a rom built from one particular release from Google will require that the vendor image matches the build for a given rom.

The only time you'll need to update your vendor is if Google releases a newer build and roms start hitting the forums for said build.

Thanks bud! On my way to TWRP!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jnclocker:
Thank your for the explanation and quick reply. Much appreciated. so that means that every month google releases a new build ill have to flash a vendor image to match custom roms out there?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jdub251:
And once again, bro, you are the man! Running beautifully. Everything is playing nicely with xposed. I'm just wondering, does everyone optimize like 12 apps every reboot?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Stephen:
Yes seems to be an xposed thing. Hopefully will get fixed on future releases. I tested on my N6ShamuM ROM and doing the same thing. Happens every reboot :(
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jdub251:
It's all good bro. At least it isn't the 173 i got installed lol! Everything is running good here. Great job.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] micmars:
It's only going to optimize those apps that are DeOdex, such as any layers you may have, or the Xposed modules.

Xposed not working for me on this new release .. I have flashed and reflashed the rom... What am I missing please? ....once I click on the xposed icon i get this message that pops up "unfortunately xposed installer has stopped"
[Nexus 6P Android Development] chubby65:
Reinstall the apk
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Stephen:
Yup :D

Yes that was due to a few issues with the aroma installer. I only spotted them after I released.

Good news!!! New version out!

Change Log

Version 2.2.1 - 18/11/2015

Aroma installer improvements

Fixed some apps not installing correctly

Added option for official GravityBox - If you select in Aroma it will be pre-activated on first boot

This should fix any issues with installing xposed on first install etc. There was a few issues in the updater-script. These are all sorted now. Let me know if there are any further issues.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Stretlow:
Sweeeeeeet..
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Stephen:
Cheers! I offer a uniquie way of installing Xposed and GravityBox. Normally you have to install Xposed, reboot, then install GravityBox, select it in Xposed then reboot. Sounded too much like hard work for me. If you select Xposed and GravityBox in aroma, everything is done for you. On first boot, GravityBox is activated for you. All you have to do is start setting up your tweaks :D

Gosh I have v2.2 running flawlessly but my OCD is gonna make me flash this when I get home.. Sadly I am all about getting a fresh start so clean flashing it is :) thanks for the update, always nice having a cleaned up stock ROM!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Aridon:
Thank you for the update. Noticed late last night after I dirty flashed that everything was working. Then I decided I wanted a clean slate so went to reinstall after a wipe and no dice. Glad to see it was fixed so quickly. You're the man
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jamespat93:
Do we need to flash vendor again if doing a clean flash from a previous build?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] wooddale:
I just tried to flash clean flash flashed ROM and vendor stuck on Google screen for 10 minutes and bailed out how long is it supposed to hang? Thanks
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Aridon:
Took about 3 minutes once it hit the colored dots. Make sure you have the new one. The file from yesterday hung on boot.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Stephen:
No, the vendor image simply has to match the version of the ROM you are flashing. I plan to include the vendor image in the ROM on future releases, but the way I want to do it, will re-quire a complete re-write of aroma installer and setting a duel boot between ubuntu and windows on my PC! I am going to wait to Christmas before I do that, as I will have some time off. :D

Yes with version 2.0.0 I noticed a few errors in the updaer-script, that could have caused it to hang on first boot. Downlaod 2.2.1 and see if that sorts it for you.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Stretlow:
Rom is running great.

One question I have is obviously since unlocking and rooting I get a warning on boot (yellow text).

Since flashing this rom I now get a different message about phone is corrupt (red text)

is this something to worry about?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Stephen:
I assume you selected leanKerenl during install? If you did, no there is nothing to worry about. He just needs to remove the checks from his kernel. It will be updated as he updates his kernel.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Stretlow:
Hi Stephen.

Yeah went for Lean, I guessed it might be linked to something in the rom / kernel.

They are annoying though those warnings.. Why have Google decided to introduce them?

Thanks for the response though pal.

[Nexus 6P Android Development] wooddale:
I have 2.2.1 downloaded that is where I had problem I cked md's they matched guess I'll try again. I already flashed the Vendor on Beans ROM I did flash it again maybe this time I won't flash because I should be good correct?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Stephen:
I would suggest downloading the vendor.img file from my link and see if you can then boot the rom. Were is it getting stuck at? Also are you encrypted?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] venusxx:
Is anybody can tell me the right way to flash this amazing rom?

Correct me if I am wrong, I shall flash the ROM under TWRP and then reboot to fastboot mode to flash the vendor.img, right?

Many thanks!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] geoff5093:
What build are you on now?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Stephen:
Backup existing ROM,

Fhash vendor.img first

Flash ROM

Reboot

Profit :D
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jbudness:
I'm not running this rom, although I am running a "stock" custom rom with Xposed and I don't load apps at every restart? Could this possibly be something in your build causing this?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Stephen:
Not sure, it is happening on both my Nexus 6P and Nexus 6 roms, Something I will definitely look into. So you are stock, but not getting android is starting message every time you reboot?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jbudness:
I'm currently running the November 18 build of DigitalHigh6P(It's based on stock with goodies added). Running it with Xposed and every option in the aroma installer for Xposed except the "CrappaLinks". I'm running the HTC Sense Keyboard and no CM12 apps.. Then the Kylo kernel.

**Edit**

I'm not getting any Android is starting apps message at every reboot.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] zosimov21:
Thanks for the updated ROM took a bit to get sorted since I wanted the elemental kernel. No issues.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] pahlerc1:
ROM is running great for me! Appreciate the stock "custom" rom with easy xposed and gravity box installation! running smooth and fast, only gripe is the "android is processing apps" on every reboot.. But that has nothing to do with performance or stability on my end, just need to be careful with how often I change up my layers :) Thanks again sir, great ROM
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Stephen:
I believe that is because his is a de-odexed ROM, should work grand on it.

Best thing to do in that senario is flash stock kernel included, then flash elemental kernel on top. I can't include it in the ROM due to the way he customises it. It is a very good kernel though!

Cheers, I hope this issues gets fixed soon. I believe it is to do with odexed roms only.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] wooddale:
Hi Steven still can't get installed. Went back to stock then tried install if Im on stock do I have to wipe. Even though MD's match should I try re download again. It's pissing me off never had this problem. Thanks.

Edit re downloaded rom flashed again worked don't know what problem was Thanks.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jbudness:
That's very possible. I didn't think about that. Just thought I would try and share any information that I could to possibly help with issues.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jamespat93:
Thanks I clean flashed with no problems. I had been stuck in a bootloop previously when trying to restore a twrp backup so just wanted to be sure.

Yeah having the vendor image in the rom will be real convenient but that sounds like hard work! Good luck haha

For some reason on the new build xposed and gravity box aren't working properly for me. Xposed doesn't let me reboot and I get the following error (attached pic) and gravitybox settings don't stick after rebooting normally. I've reflashed the rom several times but still had no luck.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] wooddale:
Gravity box reboot hasn't worked for sometime now on all phones. Don't know about not surviving reboot now I don't want to try lol.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] duminduweera:
I had the same problem just now. solved it using the following steps.

- Wiped everthing other than the internal storage from twrp

- flashed the provided vendor.img

- flashed the rom

It booting again :)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] effraie:
I am experiencing random reboots, and i believe they're Xposed related, cause I experienced them on precious version of the rom, beginning the moment I flashed Xposed. Anybody else?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Stephen:
odd must have been a bad download. You could verify the md5 with the one provided and that would confirm it.

I have tested xposed and gravitybox and working perfectly with me. I can reboot using the option in xposed app. It simply prompts for SU access and then reboots. I would suggest, back up current rom and do a full wipe, dont restore any data and see if it works. The APM in GravityBox is also working 100% for me as well.

Odd no random reboots here at all! What kernel are you using?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] effraie:
Stock
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Stephen:
possibly xposed related. Still very experimental for Android 6
[Nexus 6P Android Development] waqar.qu:
Me too. I tried a clean flash in case. Let's see how it runs now.

update:

No reboots after a clean flash.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jamespat93:
I was talking about the reboot option in xposed installer btw and it was working perfectly before. I think my xposed and gravitybox are messed up because of previous data on my internal storage.

OK this time I'm going to wipe internal data too, then I'll try to reflash.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] wooddale:
That's what I meant when I ticked it said to use regular reboot but worked fine. I have other phones and I have gotten same message and again worked fine just extra step. Good luck I don't use a ton of apps so data wipe for me is not a big deal.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jamespat93:
Ohh ok, this is the first time I've ever seen this message. Any time I've had xposed before I could always reboot with it.

I've done a complete wipe now but still get the same message so I guess I'll be getting used to the extra step too haha. The good thing is my gravity box settings are sticking after reboot now :thumbup: .
[Nexus 6P Android Development] TwiggieSmalls:
I am currently running Chroma ROM, and to install Chroma I used [MENTION=4395895]BeansTown106[/MENTION] TWRP flashable MDB08M vendor.

I am also on the latest TWRP and SuperSU 2.52 beta. So I'm wondering if I need to fastboot MDB08M since I used the TWRP flashable?

Any other install information helps as well as I don't have a ton of experience, but I assume I need to:

Data factory reset and wipe /system, /cache, /dalvik in TWRP

Go to bootloader and fastboot MDB08M (if needed)

Flash ROM in TWRP

Then set up via Aroma installer

Correct?

Fastbooting MDB08M doesn't require me to re-fastboot TWRP right?

I've read the OP and extensively through the thread so I really just want to clarify that I'm not going to do it wrong.

Thanks in advance!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] wooddale:
Good to hear I haven't rebooted yet lol.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nshawn43:
i am unable to receive any calls, i can make calls no problem.. But when i call it rings and rings and then goes to voicemail.. the phone itself never rings at all nor shows anysign of a call coming in.

Update: I was able to fix this by reflashing the Vendor.img and then boom calls started ringing the phone :)

[Nexus 6P Android Development] Stephen:
Right then, it looks like my plan to re-design how I build the ROM is going to work! Tested it all and looks good. Just need to spend this morning and reconfigure my PC so it duel boots between Windows 10 and Ubuntu. I have been working with [MENTION=5526655]fhem[/MENTION] very closely and we think we are going to be able to include the vendor image in future versions of the ROM. Really cool way about doing it this way is, we wont need to worry about all the annoying symblinks and set_metadata tags in the script. It will be a complete re-write of the updater-script, but I think it will be easier and worth it then in the long run!

Right then, time to go off-line for a while, strip out my second hard disk and setup duel boot Windows 10 and Ubuntu on my PC :D

EDIT: Step 1 complete! PC now setup with duel boot Ubuntu 15 and Windows 10! Step 2 now to start configuring Ubuntu and get SpuerR's kitchen running on it! It has been about a year since I used Ubuntu, will have to get used to it again :D
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Swatto86:
Thanks very much for this Stephen. One thing to note though, everytime I reboot I get the 'Optimizing Apps' screen - thankfully I do not reboot that often. I am on the stock Kernel. Any ideas?

[MENTION=2746542]Stephen[/MENTION] Regarding RRO support, it appears the Layers Manager doesn't work because vendor isn't set to be writable by default on N6P. Apparently this guy got it to work on Google Plus here. Is this a change that could be built into a ROM to allow Layers Manager to work instead of manually adding layers?

Edit: There's a new version of the Layers Manager (beta) that fixes this.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Stephen:
If we had a kernel that had init.d support, I could include an .sh script that ran mount -o rw,remount /vendor it should work in theory, mounting the vendor folder on each reboot.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Tung_meister:
Even when remounting vendor as rw layers manager still does nothing on mine.
