i am on super su 2.61. I love to keep systemless root working for using things like android pay. Can I update to 2.64 just by flashing the zip or do I need to uninstall 2.61 first?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] dastinger:
Just flash 2.64 and you'll be fine.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Krunk83:
After you flash 2.64 make sure to delete su/xbin_bind reboot and Android Pay should work.

Why are all the accounts being deleted when updating the rom? Is there a way to stop this from happening?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] zamula:
Would anyone happen to have the last 6.0 version? I've decided to rollback from 6.0.1 due to the LTE issues and problems with my Bluetooth speakers. Thanks!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nadiros:
Did you install over another ROM with a flashed gapps?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] :
Nah, just over stock amd previous cata version.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] osi13:
2.64 has completely screwed the ROM up twice for me, and I've deleted what is needed from system and have tried the command in TWRP to opt for systemless. I also did a clean flash of cataclysm and flashed the latest beta as instructed. Then flashed the 2.64 SuperSU. I get all kinds of apps that force close and my SIM isn't recognized. Something is wrong.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] GCbard:
I flashed 2.64 over 2.61 and have no problems.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] shiv.maneyapanda:
Sorry Guys, I'm new to cataclysm. Tried to search for steps to install cataclysm without root. Any idea where i will find it? Thanks.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nathanchance:
Right here. Root is optional in those steps.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] shiv.maneyapanda:
Thank you.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nathanchance:
[MENTION=4153349]Heisenberg[/MENTION] has got you covered. You just need to do steps 1 and 2 then you can follow my guide here to get this installed. The modified boot.img is kind of a thing of the past. The vendor.img is a special image for the vendor partition which helps run your device with some proprietary files. It is new to the 5X and 6P. All you need to know is that when Android versions change, you will need to flash an updated version of that.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Badger50:
No. The SU systemless root will patch the stock boot.img on it's own. No need for the modified version :)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Empty Hand:
I've read the OP for su 2.64 and can't understand how to check whether su is installed systemless or not, or how to force systemless. I'm not sure if it's different for cataclysm users. Is it still just a matter of deleting su/xbin_bind?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nathanchance:
A couple posts above you, I have a link to my installation guide, which goes over the new info about 2.64. Not sure if there is a way to check if it is currently installed systemless, but you can force it.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] mikexda:
From what I understand, just open SuperSU app and go to Settings. First option 'Enable Superuser' - if it is grayed out then it is systemless.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Krunk83:
This is correct.

Sent from my Nexus 6P
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Empty Hand:
Since for systemless root for all su versions after 2.61 extra steps are needed for AP to work, is there any practical benefit to using 2.64 (or 2.62) and going through the extra steps if we only want root for a custom kernel that works with systemless (and TiBu)?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] chikimonke:
Look at the changelog and decide if you need/want any of it?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=23427824

Otherwise I don't think it's necessary, but I personally like having the newest.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] memphisuklf:
Ok, Just flashed stock image 6.01 back onto my phone and unrooted. Will I need to update radio, bootloader and vendor.img before flashing cataclysm as I thought this would have been updated with new stock rom?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nathanchance:
You shouldn't need to unless you didn't include them when flashing the stock images. If you didn't include them when flashing the images, then yes you will need to do it.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] bigdave79:
Not sure this is entirely correct. I'm systemless on 2.64 and still have the first option to enable or disable supersu available. If you scroll further down under "System" you should see the "Install SuperSU into /system" option is greyed out and it should say that this option is not available in systemless mode or something like that.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] memphisuklf:
Did it with the toolkit so I presume this would have done it automatically. No harm in flashing them again?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nathanchance:
No harm in flashing again but I would assume you are right lol.

[Nexus 6P Android Development] GCbard:
Does one need to flash Dec 14 beta first or just the Dec 21beta? I assume this all on top of Dec 8th full rom
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nathanchance:
Just December 21st if you are on December 8th, no need to flash December 14th in the middle.

[Nexus 6P Android Development] Krunk83:
I have this too, seems like it changed. Everything is still working including AP so I'm not going to worry about it I guess.

---------- Post added at 04:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:47 PM ----------

I have the Dec 14th beta installed and when I dirty flash the Dec 21 mod over that I am getting all kinds of system failures like "settings has stopped" and it shows that I have no SIM card installed. I am flashing the Dec 21 mod and then flashing SuperSU 2.64 then clearing cache/dalvik and rebooting. Fist time I've had this problem with the mod on the Nexus 6 and 6P.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] atl4ntis:
it's supersu issue, flash an older like 2.62-3 for systemless or 2.52 for /system or refer to supersu thread for how to properly flash supersu 2.64

edit:

an user on another thread suggested this:

TWRP>advanced>terminal

echo SYSTEMLESS=true >> /data/.supersu
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Krunk83:
Strange, 2.64 worked fine on Dec. 14 build.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] mazubo:
I've just flashed the latest 12/21 mod and then using SuperSU 2.62-3 systemless and all is smooth sailing... Hope this helps :)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] snachez:
Was getting those fc's too, after flashing 2.64 and entering that command all is good again. Cheers !
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Krunk83:
Where do I enter the command. I couldn't figure it out, I tried and still had the same issue. Am I supposed to type it in exactly like Atlantis wrote it?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] snachez:
Yup, flash the SuperSU zip as normal in TWRP, then instead of rebooting just hit back until you get to the main menu, then go into ADVANCED then TERMINAL and type the command as shown :

echo SYSTEMLESS=true >> /data/.supersu

Then wipe cache and reboot. Make sure you do not install root if/when twrp asks you before reboot.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Krunk83:
That's the thing, when I go into terminal it just shows my files that I have.

Edit: I guess I have to choose a starting folder, but which do I choose? Sorry, I've never had to use terminal in TWRP before.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] snachez:
Any directory will do. Just hit the tick in the bottom right and the shell prompt will come up.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] mo123456789:
Cataclysm + Franco is a solid combo!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Krunk83:
Worked perfectly, thanks!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] venelar:
The factory images are just to get you current, to 6.0.1

The full rom vs delta: if atl4ntis only changes a minimal amount of code each update, you can download a small (35ish mb) file for the update vs having to download an 800mb rom. Plus it's much faster for him to spit out small updates for multiple devices rather than waiting for all those roms to build.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] shag_on_e:
If you individually flash each file from the stock zip in fastboot except for userdata.img then it won't wipe your data. There's a great guide in the general section. Easy to follow for even the newest nexus users.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] troymz1:
It's the one stickied to the top of the nexus 6p thread that says guide
[Nexus 6P Android Development] shag_on_e:
So I am on stock 6.0.1 running systemless root and installed the 12-21 mod directly over it. Installation went fine, booted up and it said I had no sim card installed. Settings also crashed when trying to open. I restored to stock and everything went back to normal. I was uneasy about just flashing the mod file, is it absolutely necessary to flash the Cat 6.0.1 before flashing the mod?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] mattkroeder:
supersu issue apparently
[Nexus 6P Android Development] lkt01071:
Was on stable 6.0.1, updated to Dec 21 beta, with elementalx. Only solution that worked was echo systemless command FIRST then flash SuperSU 2.64. Tried command after flash, without the command, all gave force closes and sim card not detected. Just a heads up to anyone still stuck.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] hajabooja:
Everything running great on the latest beta. Any chance we could see "Double Tap Nav Bar to Sleep"? The swipe Nav Bar is decent, but double tap is a little quicker.

Thanks!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] william1974:
I successfully installed super su 2.64. Do I still need to flash super su after every rom update?

Am I the only one still using SuperSU 2.61? After hearing all the complications with 2.62, 2.63, and now 2.64, I've just kept 2.61 as it works perfectly for me on 6.0.1 and the apps that I use. Flashed the latest Cata beta, 2.61 zip, then EX kernel and all is working perfectly as before. Android Pay works (at least with Dec 14th beta, I used it yesterday.. I'm confident it still works) and I don't have to mess with any terminal commands, deleting folders created by the later versions of SuperSU, etc. Apparently there are apps that aren't compatible with 2.61 but I haven't run into issues with the apps I use (EX kernel manager, TiBu, busybox pro, greenify, adaway, and solid explorer). Thought I'd mention my experience for anyone else struggling with the newer SuperSU versions. You might just want to stick with 2.61 unless you use an app that doesn't work with it.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] whitlecj:
Same here su 2.61 has worked perfectly for me.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] puritan007:
I didn't mind entering 3 strings of commands before I flash super su 2.64. It's pretty simple. I've no idea why I just like to be on the newest lol

I simply installed cataclysm, then went back to twrp main menu, advanced, terminal, click little box bottom right corner, typed in these three lines(one at a time hitting enter between each line) , hit back installed supersu 2.64, installed custom kernel and rebooted everything works including pay. :)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Empty Hand:
I know the 3rd line is needed to force the systemless install. I assume the 1st line is to avoid having to delete su/xbin_bind after the install. What is the 2nd line for?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nathanchance:
Forces system to be read/write if I am not mistaken

Problem with Layer

Hi.. I am new to Nexus 6P .Earlier i was using nexus 5 with cataclysm..

I install Cataclysm on stock with ur Mod. Now my only issue with this ROM is i am unable to install any Layer Theme except Textile OS.

I really don't know why? Also 2 request :

1) Flip to silent

2) Add settings in Dialer so that we can see the details like company name etc whenever we get a call from our contacts.

Also a big thanks for this awesome rom , specially ur mods type installation .
[Nexus 6P Android Development] shupiuiuma:
I also have problems with Layers. They are simply not installed and Layers Manager crashes when I select Uninstall layers command. All was working fine with Dec 8 version. I will downgrade for now.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Scartozzi:
it's a problem with busybox since it now supports systemless installation it broke layers...in g+ community they said they'll release an alpha that works without busybox
[Nexus 6P Android Development] troymz1:
Try busybox on rails. Seems to have fixed the issue for me
[Nexus 6P Android Development] rebretz000:
Are there spaces between some of the symbols and words?

Edit:

Should it look like this?

echo BINDSYSTEMXBIN=false>>/data/.supersu

echo FSTABSYSTEMRW=true>>/data/.supersu

echo SYSTEMLESS=true>>/data/.supersu
[Nexus 6P Android Development] bgymn2000:
I'm running this rom with SU 2.52 (regular root) and when I change the build.prop value for the dpi nothing happens upon reboot... even though the build.prop still shows the modified value when I look at it in a text editor. Any ideas why it seems like my phone is ignoring the build.prop?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nathanchance:
Are you guys using systemless root? There have been issues with systemless root, Busybox and Layers (see here). An alpha version of the Layers Manager will work without Busybox and it will be released soon. In the meantime, if you install Busybox to /system/xbin or /system/bin, Layers will work but Android Pay may break.

Merry Christmas and thanks for all your work, too. I'm assuming that, if I'm on the Dec 14th beta, all I need to do is flash the Dec 21st beta over top, no wipe or anything else - no reflash of TWRP or systemless root either? Until we get new updates from Google, no need to flash a new vendor image.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] venelar:
Flash the Dec 21 update (dirty, no wipe)

Then reflash SuperSU

Reboot and you're good to go
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nathanchance:
You will need to reflash systemless root but that is the only thing. Beta then SuperSU and you should be good.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jazzh:
Hi I came here from the Nexus 5 thread. I'm on 21 dec mod cata and when I unninstall Google app and Google now launcher I also get into bootloop. Had to perform restore from backup. It happens with either system or systemless root, so I think it's android 6.0.1 related.

Did you find any solution so far?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] inffy:
I think you can't uninstall those as cata is based on the stock images
[Nexus 6P Android Development] twoeleven99:
I lost data connectivity. Toggling airplane mode on off didn't work, switched to 2 different ROMs and my data isn't working on those now. Search back 10 pages couldn't find an answer. Anyone know where I fudged up and how I can get LTE data working again on my phone ?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nathanchance:
Did you flash the latest radio? Apparently there have been data problems on 6.0.1.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] GCbard:

[Nexus 6P Android Development] Ryanscobberwash:
2 questions! does this rom come with google dialer as default? and does it play well with DPI change or no? :) Thank you and Merry Christmas! :D
[Nexus 6P Android Development] rebretz000:
Google dialer yes as ROM is stock.

DPI no idea sorry. I never mess with that.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] numerouknow:
yes & yes.

google dialer plays well with dpi change. ive set the dpi to 400 and have no issues whatsoever.

Anyone have android pay working on the Dec 21st Beta? Mine is not. I flashed supersu 2.62 if that matters. What supersu should I be using so Android Pay works?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Ryanscobberwash:
If you haven't deleted this file "/su/xbin_bind" Delete it. Then AP should work. Merry Christmas! :)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jclendineng:
This helped a lot. A lot of failed attempts till I saw this and boom I'm rooted and Android pay indeed works. Super solid rom.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] rebretz000:
Tis the Season
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Dodgexander:
I followed these steps, since I am running the dec 08 stable with super su 2.64 and systemless root.

Unfortunately it didn't work, every time I flash the latest beta, I get the old boot animation constantly. It never ends.

I have a couple of questions, in step 1 you say uninstall Super SU, do you mean the option "full unroot", "reinstall" or "switch superuser app". I tried the "full unroot" option and it asked me whether to restore the stock boot image for OTAs or not. I chose no - is this correct? My device rebooted before I had the chance to delete the su.img file from within the rom itself.

I then tried to delete the su.img in /data in TWRP file manager, but the file didn't exist.

Then I continued and flashed the latest cata, blu spark kernel and SuperSu 2.64 and I get stuck loading on the boot logo.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nathanchance:
Hmm I am not sure what is going on, those steps all sound like they should work. Do you want system root? If so, at this point, I'd recommend SuperSU 2.52. Flash Cataclysm, Blu Spark then SuperSU 2.52. Another thing to try is flashing the UnSU zip before Cataclysm
[Nexus 6P Android Development] mikexda:
Merry Christmas everyone!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] owngaurav:
Can anyone else confirm the above bug
[Nexus 6P Android Development] PuffinNugz:
You mean the Google search bar?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] owngaurav:
Yes it's there but it's not showing in mine
[Nexus 6P Android Development] PuffinNugz:
Check cataclysm settings>miscellaneous>setting there for disable recent search widget. Is that why?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] owngaurav:
Checked but still the same issue. I m on latest beta. From stock via mod
[Nexus 6P Android Development] PuffinNugz:
Not sure then. I'm on latest beta. Clean flashed his Dec 8 full zip, then the latest beta.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] owngaurav:
Probably I shall try later when a full stable release of Cata release.. Till than I am OK with this. [emoji5]

Does this ROM support layers?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] inffy:
Yes, did you read the first post as RRO is clearly mentioned there
[Nexus 6P Android Development] fchowd0696:
Is there away to have a dark theme for this Rom?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nathanchance:
Layers Manager from the Play Store and then search dark layers theme in the Play Store. A few good ones are Domination and InversionUI.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] venelar:
+1 for inversion ui. Looks/works great.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] :
Check out Magpie layer. It's definitely worth the $! You can make many theme color combos with it. All black with white text being one.. :) If you get it and need help setting it up shoot me a pm and I'll forward you directions (screenshots) on how to make things all black if that's what your going for. I use Grey with white text or grey and black with white much of the time. It really is a great theme!!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Soulfly3:
5ghz works... it just drains the hell out of your battery for some reason

im sure google will put out a release to fix it
[Nexus 6P Android Development] FatBoy_Seconds:
Layers hasn't been working for me for some odd reason. I'm in latest cataclysm. But none the layers I apply, actually work. Which is weird bcuz they worked before
[Nexus 6P Android Development] venelar:
Try removing all applied overlays, then clearing the data for the layers manager app (it won't uninstall your overlays). Then run layers app and re apply layers.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] FatBoy_Seconds:
I did that. That didn't work. So I flashed stock 6.0.1 images. Userdata and everything. Then flashed cataclysm, still don't work
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nathanchance:
Are you using systemless root?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] FatBoy_Seconds:
Yeah. SuperSU 2.62 r3
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nathanchance:
Systemless root has never played nicely with Layers because of Busybox. If you install Busybox to /system/xbin or /system/bin, Layers will work but Android Pay may break. There will be an alpha release of the Layers Manager that doesn't rely on Busybox so systemless root should work fine
[Nexus 6P Android Development] FatBoy_Seconds:
I'd rather have layers than Android pay. Thanks though
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nathanchance:
Install this then, Layers should apply and delete without issues.
