NRT to sideload monthly Android Security Updates on Rooted devices with TWRP Recovery

As a a happy owner of a 128MB 6p, I'm finally part of the Nexus community, and I'd like to thank WugFresh for providing the ultimate swiss army knife for managing Nexus devices! However, I'm having issues sideloading the MMB29P January Security Update using NRT.

I am rooted with custom recovery on 6.0.1 MMB29M attempting to get to MMB29P. When the Nexus Root Toolkit script prompts to load the stock Android Recovery to 'Apply the update from ADB', I receive the following response, and have to reboot the device to start over, with the same result. FWIW, I also tried using the full MMB29P image vs. the incremental file with no luck, so any advice would be appreciated!

Now send the package you want to apply

to the device with "adb sideload <filename>"...

If you want to update reflash factory images you can't update a rooted rom

DOH! Followed the instructions and successfully updated to MMB29P. Thanks for the tip.

Any plans on adding a feature to upgrade stock versions with systemless rooted for the monthly security updates? Would be very nice.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] tu3218:
Does this program offer systemless root?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] chubby65:
Yes it sure does
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nextelbuddy:
will this program ever be updated to provide the no Force Encyrpt kernels? I h ave tried selecting every type of 6.0.0 and 6.0.1 choices for Nexus 6p and every time I click on Boot Kernel, the No Force Encrypt button is disabled.

How does this button get updated? does Wug wait for someone to get the latest kernel and disable the encryption flag first? or does he do it himself?

i feel like its always so hard to find someone with just the stock kernel with encryption flag disabled lately. i can find it but after a long time of searching and reading individual posts where some random person happened to just do it and attached a zip.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] xucardsfan08:
Thanks for this amazing tool. The whole process was as smooth & easy as I could have hoped for!!!!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] FormeriPhoney:
Hi guys, I had a serious issue for the first time ever using Wugs kit.

I just got my Nexus 6p and went to use the kit.

Bootloader unlocked fine no problem.

Went to root + install custom recovery option.

Next I was brought to the twrp screen and asked if I wanted to install supersu, I swiped to perform action.

Next I got that message "device can't be trusted lock your bootloader" which I know is normal but.. After that I got a similar message in Red that stated "device is corrupt and may not work properly"

I was stuck in a bootloader for 25 min.

My next step was to manually boot into bootloader and use the kit to flash stock while in bootloop which thank God worked.

I tried all over again and had the same issue. It's been almost a year since I've used the kit so did I miss something or perform something incorrectly?

Thanks in advance.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Weedalot:
Meaning you can't be unlocked and rooted? Or just need to flash stock and lose root?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] greyhd:
When TWRP asks you if you want SuperSu installed, always say no. Just transfer the SuperSu zip file to your phone from your PC and flash it while you are in twrp.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] AmyClaraRose:
Basically flash stock and lose root the you re root after
[Nexus 6P Android Development] force70:
Bro dropped u a PM we will get you fixed up.

Some things have changed on the 6p thats for sure.

I can not for the life of me get this squared away.

I did not flash root in Temp TWRP and got it to boot up no problem along with Bootloader unlocked.

I went to try again and booted into TWRP manually and I get "no command" as it seems like there is no recovery installed.

So, i plugged back in, and went through the Root too again.. this time it booted right into TWRP.. So while i was in there I figured I'd wipe and install Pure Nexus Rom (which it did fine)

Pure Nexus rom booted fine but I still have no recovery to boot into for some reason. It always says "no command" with the android and warning symbol.

Good News, I have the rom up and running fine..

Bad News, I cant boot into TWRP without Booting into bootloader manually + I CAN NOT for the life of me get the device recognized on my PC. I have toggled USB debugging, Toggled USB connection from MTP and PTP (photo) which always works . I even went through the driver install and different USB ports.

Experts are both welcome and appriciated to help in all aspects of my issues. I'm usually a good troubleshooter but this one has me.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] badrsj:
You may have to authorize ABD access from computer? for the device again on a new rom. The other thing you may need is to be able to boot into recovery from advanced power options in the ROM

---------- Post added at 11:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:26 AM ----------

Correction, the access is granted from the pop-up menu on the phone, when you start running the application on the PC

[Nexus 6P Android Development] force70:
Sorry was out all of yesterday.

When i got mine had the same probem. i had to delete all other mobile drivers from my pc, notably the Samsung drivers for my note devices.

Once i did that and then installed nexus drivers i was GTG.

[Nexus 6P Android Development] RichardW1992:
Would just like to say thank you for this toolkit, it unlocked, rooted and flashed TWRP absolutely fine to my 6P.

Is the root method used definitely the systemless method though?

I only ask as after rooting, although SuperSU was installed TWRP kept saying it "could not detect Super User, would I like to install it now?" everytime I went to reboot into the system from recovery. SuperSU was installed and root was working fine, but I got fed up with the message so eventually I said yes, made no difference to how root worked on my phone but thankfully now the prompt has disappeared.

However after flashing ElementalX kernel I am having some problems with features not showing up which should be there... Wondering if its related to me rooting the second time through TWRP?

Regards,
[Nexus 6P Android Development] koxx.dta:
having some issues also, probably my fault

unlock went great

trying to root and twrp, seems as though everytime it reboots or boots to recovery connection to pc is lost (just says "waiting for device). every time i connect to pc i have to change from charging to mtp/ptp. this is not possible when in fastboot though

call me an idiot i dont mind hahah, any help is appreciated

EDIT: apparently is was an issue with twrp 2.8.7.0, when i used same method with 2.8.7.2 everything worked flawlessly

thanks all
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Steff08:
When you connect your phone with your PC you have to tap on the notification and enable mtp plus when you see waiting for your device in twrp all you have to do is reboot from twrp option and the process is over

Success.

Followed built-in instructions to the letter.

Went perfectly fine, without any surprises.

Opted not to install TWRP (custom recovery), just Rooted.

Many thanks for the Kit !
[Nexus 6P Android Development] FormeriPhoney:
I was able to successfully install the drivers through the manual option. All good.

Only thing is, my device does not get recognized on mtp in order to be able to transfer files back and forth from my pc

if i switch mtp off then on it works for a while

Nothing but FC on lots of apps when I used this method. Also every time I reboot I keep getting android is optimizing apps. How many times will it do this.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] David522d:
Elllo, should be getting my 6p very soon! As I read there is an update to 6.0.1. Can I run the tool kit without any problems? Or will I have to do something prior.

Thanks in advance, toolkit looks very good and easy to use.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] mochamoo:
FYI, Wug's has updated the toolkit for Feb 1st security update MMB29Q. Go and get it :)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] mochamoo:
Updated fine. Busybox had issues. "Denied SuperSU" or something. Uninstalled and reinstalled from the play store and all is good. Thanks Wugs.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] d08speed3:
Used the toolkit and it all worked fine. Now when I flash any ROM just sits at boot lloadingt screen? Ideas? It unlocked, flashed TWRP, rooted. Then I DL Chroma + gapps and it just sits at boot loading screen. Tried Pure Nexus + gapps. Just sits at boot loading screen 5+ minutes now.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] greyhd:
What gapps? I know this is a dumb question, but are you running the latest google image?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] d08speed3:
I skipped the update as soon as I turned on my 6p today. Used the toolkit. Those warning messages are supposed to be there when booting? Can I use the toolkit to DL the latest IMG?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] greyhd:
Yes you can update to the latest using the toolkit. Make sure whatever Rom you decide to use that it has been updated to the Feb update. Some Roms have not been updated, but soon will be.

I am new to the Nexus 6p - not new to flashing but still this tool has been a great help for me. I have been accustomed to flashing Samsung ever since I started on android and except for a very brief stint with a nexus 4 and an HTC have always used Samsung. So getting used to Venders, frequent system updates - etc - has been interesting and educational - made a few mistakes but this toolkit helped me get back on track. (what is a vender anyway? :) )i know, what a noob I am huh? LOL

thank you for your work - awesome toolkit.

NRT flashing MMB29P as MMB29Q on Nexus 6P

Hi all,

I used NRT to flash MMB29Q over MMB29P on my nexus 60 in No wipe mode , but keeps flashing the MMB29P image . I have tried multiple times and the results are same.

Did anyone else face this issue ?

I'm initiating download of MMB29Q again , I will check the signatures and update once again.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] victorsdaddy:
I did the update no problem to 29m but I have been having issues updating to 29p and now 29q. What the heck am I doing wrong now that I did right the first time? The first time the program basically told me there was an update. Now it doesn't. Help!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] indiandragon:
Okay, so it's common for all I guess ? [MENTION=3110798]WugFresh[/MENTION]
[Nexus 6P Android Development] victorsdaddy:
Actually I figured it out. I was clicking everywhere but the button I needed to.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] indiandragon:
Okay, can you confirm the build number you are having now?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] victorsdaddy:

[Nexus 6P Android Development] mongonexus:
hey guys rooted with nrt,stock rom stock recovery,whats the easiest way to unroot to get google update ?? ty steve
[Nexus 6P Android Development] greyhd:
You don't have to unroot to upgrade. The kit can upgrade you by downloading the Google image and installing it.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] mongonexus:
,,thankyou,i would love to know how please,,thankyou,,steve
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nextelbuddy:
posted this back on page 13... anyone know?

or does anyone know where I can get the MMB29Q STOCK Kernel with NO FORCE ENCRYPTION?

i know its out there, but I cant find it in the dev section or online. I cant be the only one that likes the stock kernel with encryption disabled can i?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] greyhd:
Use the "flash back-unroot" option, your bootloader will not be locked or you can use the advance utilities and go under fastboot and flash one by one. I just use the flash back and unroot option to flash the google image.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] mongonexus:
thankyou very much,the flash back unroot worked very nicely,thanks for the help ,,steve
[Nexus 6P Android Development] MaRkuS_538:
Silly question, but...

Is it possible to make a backup, then unlock the bootloader and get root + custom recovery and then restore the backup? (To keep my data and have the unlocked one and root)

And another.. What does this wipe do? Normally it deletes only APP data, settings,... But in this case also music, pictures and stuff, or not?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] indiandragon:
Update : Storage area was less and the NRT couldn't download complete images , but it didn't complain either. It tried to flash with just bootloader and without system images . Hence my build remained the same. I'm not sure how the flashing started with failed signatures. I would suggest everyone to make sure the images are downloaded completely by NRT before flashing.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] error629:
not rooted?

i've successfully used this toolkit on 2 nexus 7, a gnex, and n5.

has worked everytime for me.

kinda stumped.

got bootloader unlocked.

so i got the phone recognized.

went and and hit root.

the phone/toolkit did its thing.

got the recovery installed and immediately made a back up. then rebooted system. never saw a question if i wanted to install super su.

downloaded rootchecker and it said i was not rooted.

i thought you had to be rooted to install twrp?

ive tried to hit root again and now the phone is not being recognized by the toolkit.

ive gone into device manager/android phone and did have to change to google nexus adb interface.

rebooted computer.

tried to hit root again. toolkit still not recognizing.

phone is plugged into computer. device manager/android phone/ google nexus adb interface is correct

ive rebooted the n6p several times and have booted in twrp.

:confused::confused::confused::confused:

Thanks in advance!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] greyhd:
Have you tried ADB to see if your phone is recognized? I would flash twrp through fastboot. Lastly, did you flash SuperSu once twrp was loaded?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] error629:
under advanced utilities i pressed launch

under quick tools i pressed reboot bootloader and the bootloader rebooted.

under quick tools i pressed reboot recovery and it actually rebooted system

(TWRP is installed)

under quick tools i pressed list devices and it shows my device serial #

i did not flash supersu once twrp was loaded.

i thought i was not suppose to do that within the twrp.

i downloaded supersu from the play store and tried to run that. no go.

im not sure which supersu im suppose to push.

i promised ive read every single page in this thread.

please no pitch forks.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] greyhd:
Once you have twrp, boot into it and flash supersu, but DO NOT flash the supersu TWRP provides. Download 2.67 from this thread and flash it in twrp.

Google figured out how to stop rooted user from using AP. I think if you disable SuperSu, android pay will work but then you have to enable SuperSu again after the transaction.

So, I attempted to unlock my bootloader with this. Nothing happened. I followed all the steps but the phone just rebooted as it was "supposed" to, but the bootloader remained locked. What am I missing? My Nexus 6 didn't have this issue, ever.

---------- Post added at 11:55 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:35 AM ----------

Just tried again. Ran the full driver test. Everything went fine up until the device rebooted to Android out of the bootloader. Never made it past "Waiting for your device." USB Debugging was still on, but I never saw the success.

---------- Post added at 11:56 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:55 AM ----------

Unplugged it and plugged back in and there was the success message. Weird.

---------- Post added at 11:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:56 AM ----------

Unlocking the bootloader still failed. Nothing was even wiped. Device simply rebooted like normal even though all of the steps of the unlock process proceeded without error.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] greyhd:
Did you download the drivers from Google? Have you tried unlocking the bootloader through fastboot?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] agentfazexx:
I'm probably just going to use the command line. I used option 1 for drivers, which were the Google drivers. Not sure why this device is not working with NRT for me. The N6 and N7 were flawless.
