I flashed the vendor from the image archive for that version of MM I was trying to flash in fastboot after flashing the rest of it. The flash all batch file also flashes the vendor for you, but that didn't seem to help. I also tried flashing the latest PN vendor for the latest MM image in TWRP, no dice. I have grown accustomed to having to flash vendor files for each image, I have been bouncing between MM roms without issues, but this has me stumped. Could a power cycle during a bootup do this? I was pretty tired when running through it, some of the details are a bit hazy. I also managed to fat finger and rush through a wipe and lost my backup because I accidentally wiped internal storage. Ugh, just a bad day all around.

---------- Post added at 12:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:58 AM ----------

Thank you for typing out this guide, although I am very familiar with copying over files and flashing ROMs. I did all of that (except I dragged and dropped files over MTP with TWRP open, or used a third party tool that pushed files over ADB and then fastboot flashed), I'm not sure if there is something wrong with how I did it but I kind of doubt it considering that I have done the same thing for all of the other roms.

I did notice that the system partition was bigger (5 installs on N instead of 4 on MM). Is it possible this could be a partition size problem? I'm just pulling things out of my ass here for academic purposes, it's kind of moot now that a new device is on the way but I hate giving up on things.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Kapak13:
I expected you to be familiar from reading your past posts, I just explain most things as if I'm talking to a beginner to make sure no tiny step is possibly overlooked.

You could try going into twrp, hitting wipe, then at he bottom left is a gray button that says something like format or partition, can't remember off the top of my head at the moment, but if you hit that, you get a page where you can select partitions and have twrp resize them. Maybe give that a try?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] downslayer:
There is a resize partition button which I haven't tried because I have no idea what the partition sizes were supposed to be and I would figure that TWRP would take care of that on its own but I could see how it might not given how new N is. I tried the repair function also on the partitions that support it just in case, that also didn't help. I'm so glad Google is willing to replace it.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Kapak13:
From what I know, twrp would do it on its own and I don't think there'd be an issue. It can't hurt to try
[Nexus 6P Android Development] wishx:
At the bottom of the first post, it should probably say:

ROM OS Version: 7.0.x Nougat

...lest people somehow get confused. :good:
[Nexus 6P Android Development] TransportedMan:
I don't get how so many people are having trouble getting this ROM to work. Flashed it same day it dropped on clean install and everything has been buttery smooth since and I'm not looking back.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] humdrum2009:
Same here followed op instructioins to the letter.

fast boots up quickly after reboot.

AP works great:cool:
[Nexus 6P Android Development] natedogg8712:
Flashed rom , everything is running great. Been using for a few days, I got viper to work for the phone speaker but I went to use my bt headphones at the gym and it doesn't process. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Love turning the output gain up at the gym.....should add I'm using google music. And set to permissive
[Nexus 6P Android Development] phillymade:
Ditto.....

I did however have two random reboots. One today and one last night, running stock kernel, no mods. Not sure what happened. All in all, it was a breeze to flash and been running sweet since then,
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jesssiii:
I already restored my nandroid of PureNexus MOD rom without issue. I wiped and did a clean install of Digitalhigh's rom from a backup of dp5, lol. Then twice now restored to PureNexus. I don't wipe anything when twrp restoring as it does it for you. And I've always backed up system, boot, data, and vendor in twrp. And I'm decrypted too, and using the latest twrp.

I have no doubt this is a real issue, just have no clue why some and not others have it. Since the stock image is still not out for the 6P, I'm suspecting some problem with nougat and our device, but don't know enough to even make an educated guess. I'm so sorry this happened, though.

Nexus 6P
[Nexus 6P Android Development] defcondev:
Yep,

I'm also in a bootloader loop after trying to go back to 6.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] DJBhardwaj:
Instead of going back to MTC20F, try going back to MTC19X.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] defcondev:
Attempting now. Thanks
[Nexus 6P Android Development] DJBhardwaj:
Good luck, and let us know of the results.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] defcondev:
It's a no-go; still shows the Google logo then reboots to the "Warning, your phone is unlocked so it can't be verified..etc" then back to the Google logo, and so on.

So far I've flashed

MTC20F

MTC19X

MTC19V

MTC19T

MTC19Q

all with & without force-encryption

I've also tried with TWRP 3.0.2-0 & 3.0.2-1

As well as completely wiping and re-flashing this ROM;

The results are the same every time; I can access the bootloader & recovery fine, but ROMs won't boot.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] DJBhardwaj:
Before you proceed with anything else, I recommend that you wait for the N factory image. I am now quite getting why Google is taking its time.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] froughie:
I had the same issue. My problem though arose from messing around with Substratum theming engine. I installed the ROM without any issues and it was working flawlessly. The ROM installed three apps Magisk, Viper4Android and Substratum.

I knew the other two apps and what they did but didn't have a clue how to work the theming engine. I went ahead and changed some settings in order to theme the UI. After the first reboot, the phone was acting up.. colors were off so I went through the menu in order to find a reset/default button to revert back but couldn't find any.

Eventually I did find something that would have reverted me back to default but it required me to make a backup of the system to begin with.. :@

Anyhow, long story short, I flashed everything I could find, from my working twrp backup to all the other images available, past and present.. nothing worked.

It kept cycling through the warning message and the google logo. I eventually flashed 6.0 via Wugfresh's toolkit and locked the bootloader and called up Google support. They are now sending me a refurbished one.

I am currently using an iPhone 5s. Oh God I hate this iphone..
[Nexus 6P Android Development] ConstantHero:
Returned to 6.0.1 from OTA 7 with WugFresh Nexus root toolkit 2.1.8. Just picked up the 6P last weekend didn't realise the situation of reverting back with twrp. The toolkit got me back to MTC20F from NRD90M. Selected model type/build and checked soft brick/bootloop for status then hit flash stock+unroot and it restored me back to stock MTC20F in a few minutes. Then utilized it to get twrp and root back. Very simple it seemed.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] inthedark22:
Don't know what but my flash didn't boot up ;got stuck on google logo. Came from Android N but the battery was terrible. Did a n android restore of cm13 and it booted up without problems. Don't know why it's so different for everyone
[Nexus 6P Android Development] chipstien:
Awesome ROM Digital. One request..... Any chance you can add the keyboard that has all the punctuation marks on all the keys so you can long press instead of changing the keyboard each time you need to insert a punctuation mark. DU for instance has that type of keyboard. Even better is the keyboard on Benzo ROM that has all the long press punctuation marks and also added the number row on top.

Thanks for this great ROM.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] RayMcGrath:
SwiftKey beta FTW!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Kapak13:
Maybe try chrooma keyboard

It has the action row for numbers at the top of the keyboard, has option for symbols on keys so you can long press for symbols, has gestures like swipe trail and quick edits.

It also has a color picker that you enable with accessibility and the keyboard with change to the color of the app being used.

On Google messenger, each contact has their own color, and the keyboard matches per contact.

It is a paid app, but I think there is a free version to try out.

The keyboard acts a lot like the stock Google keyboard, but has a lot of great features
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nicenice19:
This is a standard option in Google Keyboard that just needs to be turned on. Settings\Languages & Inputs\Virtual Keyboard\Google Keyboard\Preferences\Long Press For Symbols
[Nexus 6P Android Development] chipstien:
Well what do ya know. Is this option new for 7.0? Thanks for the heads up!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] downslayer:
I tried this and it didn't work. I tried nearly every version of 6 all the way back to the very first version released for the phone. None of them worked for me.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nicenice19:
I think it has been in Google Keyboard since the update where you could choose themes.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] DJBhardwaj:
I wish I could be of much help here. But just like I commented before, kindly wait for the N factory image. Once it is up, flash it, and then we may be able to conclude something.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] kcteun:
There is a thread in "General" for botched install of 7.0. Might want to take further discussion there. No solution found so far. Had mine graciously replaced under project Fi warranty.

[Nexus 6P Android Development] AndrewM3:
Installed latest release for 7.0 everything works but can't get viper to work. I tried flashing the estate wide fix from weta and selux in permissive mode says my driver's are installed and enabled but doesn't work in Poweramp. Please give me any links or steps thank you.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] phillymade:
I do believe that for viper to work the kernel has to be set to permissive. This can be done through Magisk app.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] AndrewM3:
ok so I did set to permissive and then the viper says the drivers are installled but when I configure in the viper app it doesn't change in real time
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Shemploo:
did you flash the System wide WATA flashable zip someone posted a few pages back?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] OState:
I am running into the same thing, every couple of reboots it says that the Superuser binary needs updated. I had thought there would be an option in the app for the update, but I can't find it.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] AndrewM3:
ok I flashed that can anybody provide the zip for viper with sound mods from the weta thread I couldn't find it. Thanks

Users who failed when trying to go back to MM from digitalhigh, would you read this and let us know of the results?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] drolgnir:
The only way I could go back to mm was to flash an older vendor.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nickmilla15:
Interesting. I get an error saying my device doesn't support this, and to contact my service provider.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] rcurtis805:
That's odd. Mine has always worked, even when I used other custom Roms...it's not a device issue, because our Nexus 6p can handle it just fine. Maybe it's something with your cell carrier. Anyone else have issues with this??
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nickmilla15:
Yeah, I dunno. It's always worked for me before.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] wishx:
When I try to reboot into TWRP, it just sits at the loading screen that says "teamwin Recovery Project 3.0.2-0" which is weird because I had 3.0.2-1 on there before flashing this ROM.

Anyway, it won't boot into TWRP at all. Is this happening for anyone else and, if so, is there a solution? I can't use FlashFire because it says I'm not rooted because I'm not running SU.

Thanks in advance!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Kapak13:
Try to adb flash the latest twrp which is, as of yesterday, 3.0.2-2

And then clear cache and dalvik with adb
[Nexus 6P Android Development] wishx:
Well, I'm half way there... I got 3.0.2-2 on and started a backup, but it failed with

createTarFork( ) process ended with ERROR: 255

Guess I'm headed over to the TWRP thread with this one.

Hey everyone, is anybody having issues with random reboots? The ROM loaded fine and seems to be working great but I am getting random reboots 6-8 times a day and it's getting a bit tiresome. Any help would be appreciated and kudos to the devs for a sweet ROM.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] vboyz103:
Yep I do have that problem occasionally, most of the times I have it in my pocket and only found out when i turned on my phone.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] greyhd:
Same here.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] d3viou5:
I had the same problem. If you check the box saying update radio and bootloader it busts you down to 3.0.2-0. I was on 3.0.2-2 originally.

From what I understand 3.0.2-0 can't decrypt Nougat storage. Mine got stuck after entering the pattern. Only way I could fix was to adb the latest twrp again. Seems odd that 3.0.2-0 would be included in a Nougat rom.

Viper, Night mode and su wouldn't work for me. In the end i installed none of the extra features and stuck with a.r.i.s.e audio for viper, and chainfire for root.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] rcurtis805:
You can also download flashify from the play store and re flash or flash the 3.0.2.1 TWRP IMG file. Flashify will give you an error at startup saying that it has superuser rights but couldn't gain access, but ignore that message and OK it, flashify still works as long as you grant superuser rights to it. I flashed the new TWRP without a hitch, rebooted, and it was there and active. Then rebooted back to my phone.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] AmyClaraRose:
I think you mean 3.0.2-2 as 3.0.2-1 has a fatal error in it
[Nexus 6P Android Development] rcurtis805:
Didn't know 3.0.2.2 existed. Downloading it now. But yes, same program...
[Nexus 6P Android Development] eko_cahyono:
why after reboot, root is gone and i cannot go pass into TWRP menu. another bug is sRGB mode back to off again after reboot. please help
[Nexus 6P Android Development] SlimSnoopOS:
Both TWRP 3.0.2-1 and 3.0.2-2 have separate, yet critical issues in them. Do not perform a backup using either and life will be fine. See the TWRP thread for more details.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Hinesight 20/20:
Whoa! I just updated to 3.0.2-2 manually. What is wrong with this version please? I can only find the thread where 3.0.2-1 is outed for the fatal error.

[Nexus 6P Android Development] apostol96t:
Hi guys. Some weird root access issues have showed up.

So I decided to flash this today as it seemed really stable for a 7.0 rom. Everything went fine with no problems till I got the notification the the SU binary is out of date.

Nothing happened once the default superuser app was opened which then drove me to download superSU from the play store. Opened the latter which prompted me that the SU binary isn't installed at all and root access isn't available. Checked Magisk and apparently the phone shows up as not rooted.

Any ideas on how I can fix this without a clean reflash of everything? The phone is working just fine but there's no root. So far I've tried flashing superSU zip through twrp but then it wouldn't boot so right now I'm back to the Nandroid backup at the above situation.

Your lucky that your backup worked.

Go into supersu and in settings check to reset to use a different su app. It will reboot. This will return your supersu to phh.

Go to the magisk XDA page. Flash the latest version of magisk and then flash the magisk version of SuperSU.
