The mod you linked doesn't actually make the message invisible but it does allow you to change the image to something other than the warning so that the boot looks a lot "cleaner".

As an example I've changed the warning image on my 5X to the one attached here.

Don't use SuperSU 2.62 as I had force closes with Titanium Backup

BaNkS GApps was updated yesterday and requires a clean flash. So don't try and dirty flash his GApps, you can either 1) stay with your current GApps and leave it 2) clean flash with his newly updated GApps

Chroma + Android Pay (confirmed to be working on Android 6.0.1 by multiple users, 5X/6P only)

SuperSU 2.52 (default): This is the default SuperSU that Chroma has always used and is stable. Just keep flashing Chroma as you normally would. ANDROID PAY WILL NOT WORK WITH 2.52, ONLY 2.60.

SuperSU 2.61 (Systemless root - optional flash): This is a new SuperSU version that was released on 12/06. From my experience, it is pretty stable but can experience problems. However, by using this root method -- Android Pay will work. I've had users on the Nexus 6P that have successfully made a purchase running Chroma and SuperSU 2.61

Clean flashing? Flash ROM, Flash BaNkS GApps, Flash UPDATE-unSU.zip, Flash SuperSU 2.60, Reboot TWRP will prompt you that root is not detected, press DO NOT INSTALL

[Nexus 5X Android Development] PKFR4Life:
I've proceeded to flash stock 6.0.1 and reflash Chroma and OpenGapps. The error no longer appears. Perhaps the vendor image flash would have worked after all.

---------- Post added at 11:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:09 AM ----------

I found that when I was on Chroma Dec 7th build using ElementalX-N5X-0.09, the camera would not work. If I flash the Dec 7th ROM again, resulting in the kernal included within the ROM, the camera would work. I flash ElementalX again and the camera stays stuck at the little camera logo. So I'm sticking with the kernal that came with the ROM.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] dickenam:
I think I know why that is, EX .09 was for 6.0 you needed to use 1.0 or 1.01 for 6.0.1, which IIRC, Chroma 12/7 was.

[Nexus 5X Android Development] sn0warmy:
I'm finding a strange issue with this ROM. Apps tend to freeze for a few seconds while using them. Sometimes the only way to get them to function correctly is to lock and unlock the screen.

It was happening on a fresh install of the 12/7 build with Banks Gapps and now it's happening with a fresh install of the 12/10 build and the new Banks gapps. I tried flashing Elemental X 1.01 kernel but that doesn't seem to have solved it. For reference, it doesn't happen all the time, just randomly on commonly used apps. My phone never did this on stock, stock rooted, or on Pure Nexus Project. I've used all those setups with the stock kernel and with Elemental X and never experienced this, previously.

What should I do?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] PiousInquisitor:
You should fastboot flash the bootloader, radio, and vendor images from the latest android update (a link to them was posted a few pages back). Then you should do an advanced wipe and wipe everything but internal storage (this is in TWRP). Then flash the ROM and the GAPPS. Then reboot. If you are still encrypted, after you enter in your pin at mid-boot it might take forever to finish the boot process. Be patient.

Instructions in the OP link to the 6.0.1 build

Basically, I just flashed radio via fastboot, bootloader via fastboot, booted into TWRP: flashed Chroma, Flashed unSU, Flashed SU 2.61 systemless, flashed Vendor zip, and finally flashed EX. Done and done.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] WhiteWidows:
Thanks, but I know I need to update the boot loader and radio. But no where in the op do I see that this needs to be done nor links to either of them. Just the vendor image is posted.

So I take it we have to download the entire nexus 5x system image extract it and flash radio/ bootliader separately? I assume there are no twrp flashable zips for them? Like the og nexus 5.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] dickenam:
I can tell you that I found all of this info by searching this thread. Here's the post with the info you will need.

At this point, you have 2 options: Option one is extracting the radio and bootloader from the post I linked above and use fastboot to flash it. Option 2 is to clean flash the factory images from Google's site and then follow this: (copied from OP)

3. Dirty flashing from prior Chroma builds? Flash ROM, Flash UPDATE-unSU.zip, Flash SuperSU 2.61, Reboot. TWRP will prompt you that root is not detected, press DO NOT INSTALL

Right here If you download 2.61, Android Pay should work right after flashing it. 2.62 will work but you need to delete a file first.

Hi all, brand new to N5 and Chroma rom. Loving it so far. Quick question since I didn't see anything on it in this thread. Is anyone running xposed in the latest build? I've read elsewhere that xposed for 6.0 is working in 6.0.1. Also, what does gravitybox offer that's not already baked into this rom? I really just want to use youtube adaway, but am open to learning about other xposed modules that might be useful. Thanks for any tips.

ps. running latest build with EX kernel.

pps. just wanted some clarification since this is the first phone i've had with "vendor" partition. am i correct that this is essentially what used to be part of the system partition, and now it's been taken out? what exactly is in there? the radio and bootloader? also, i didnt need to flash it since i was coming over from 6.0.1 stock. so i wouldnt normally need to flash it until the android version number changes right, even if switching roms, or do custom roms sometimes require custom vendor partitions now? also, when is the vendor partition flashed? is it by fastboot or by twrp? finally, the system_image partition and the vendor_image partitions are taking up quite a bit of space. what are these? are they something that can be deleted? wow a lot of questions. thanks to anyone who can get me up to speed! (have been rooting 5 years but somehow a lot is new this time around).
[Nexus 5X Android Development] buru898:
Just think of the vendor partition as something extra to flash alongside bootloader and radio. If you came from stock, it updates all of the partitions and you should be good. If your vendor was out of date you would get a notification upon booting into your ROM. The command to flash is fastboot flash vendor vendor.img.

I have no idea what it contains, but I personally don't care lol.

[Nexus 5X Android Development] greves1:
Just wanted to report in on a strange experience tonight. So I went into twrp to make a backup. Coming back out, the device asks to enter the password because it's just booted. Anywho, no matter how many times I entered my password, it just wouldn't take it. And I'm 99.999999999999% sure I was typing it correctly, because I had used it for the past several days. So there seemed to be no way out of this, so I just reset the phone using android device manager. (Probably should have just wiped it, but I had never tested this and wanted to try it out). So anywho, I go through the setup, find that the phone needs to be rooted again (used systemless 2.61), most ( not all, strangely) of the Chroma settings stuck, but some had to be reset. I re-flashed xposed since it said it wasn't installed. What's interesting here is that upon reboot from the xposed flash, the apps did not go through their usual update thing. Only issue I'm having now is that android pay isn't letting me add a card, whereas it would before. Could this be due to xposed or something? I had previously added a card before installing xposed. Well, long story, but just thought it might be helpful in case there is some cause for my initial inability to get into my device. Also, it's super-frustrating that google disabled regular google account login after 5 wrong password attempts...
[Nexus 5X Android Development] PiousInquisitor:
From the PureNexus thread:
[Nexus 5X Android Development] greves1:
Thanks so much for this response. It's a bit too late for me to try this out since I already wiped, but I'll keep a note of this post. I had the same experience with android device manager telling me it wouldn't reset the password for me. I'd love to know what causes this, since it makes me scared to switch roms/perform backups/or even reset my phone!

Update: I noted in my above post that android pay wouldn't let me add a card. So I went ahead and flashed the un-SU and then again the systemless 2.61. I can now add a card! But...xposed now told me that it was installed but not configured correctly (or something I forget the exact message). So I flashed xposed again. Xposed showed as active, but android pay was broken! Finally, and most recently, I flashed the xposed uninstaller, and now android pay seems to be fine, but I am without xposed. Funny stuff! A little scared to try and re-install xposed... I really just want to block youtube ads. Any way to do this outside of xposed?
