[Nexus 6P General] mahdibassam:
Im on stock, got my Nexus 6P about a week ago. And I have a few reasons for staying stock.

1) People keep saying that the Nexus 6P is home to "endless customizations" and what not if you root. But I dont see how a nexus is any different to for example a Galaxy Note in terms of the level of customizations you can achieve with root and custom roms

2) I love the stock experience on this device, and want everything to be exactly as Google intended it to be.

3) third and main reason for me at this moment is that I have about 300 apps, loads of photos and a alot more data on the device, and i am beyond the point where I can root. I will lose everything on my device once I unlock the bootloader and Im just not prepared to reinstall and set everything up again.

If I could find a complete solution to back everything up on stock android with app data and etc, I would root just to get greenify and battery opitmizations, but i think im beyond that stage right now with the amount of stuff I have on the device.
[Nexus 6P General] mikespe:
I'll reply to each one:

1: It depends on which carrier you are on. Samsung & Verizon have locked down their phones from rooting. I had the Note 4 on Verizon and their STILL is no way to root. Even just an app suck as Tasker could change your mind once you use it while rooted! Same with Titanium Backup! But roms allow theming, access to settings you never knew were there...

2: This is just a personal choice

3: Titanium Backup allows you to backup all your apps & their data and restore them to your newly setup phone. But you need to be rooted first to use it. So when you change roms you can restore everything as you had it. You can't restore system apps/settings but I'd say about 98% of what you had can be restored. Plus once in a while an app won't play nice with a backup but it's easier to reinstall one or 2 apps instead of 300
[Nexus 6P General] mahdibassam:
Thanks for the reply.

I'm already familiar with TB and etc, I have had custom roms and tweaks on most my phones. But the problem right now for me is that I have to root my phone to use TB, WITH all the data on it. And if I'm not wrong the first step to root this device is to unlock the bootloader which would wipe everything. So my dilemma is to find a backup solution that doesn't need root AND backs up data of apps. Setting up 300 apps is not easy!
[Nexus 6P General] mikespe:
So you mean to tell me you have 300 apps ALL with data that is that difficult to replace? Not trying to be funny but I have NEVER heard of anyone that had THAT many apps all with irreplaceable data...
[Nexus 6P General] mahdibassam:
You misunderstood my point. It's not that the data is irreplaceable, it's the fact that I have to go through 300 apps and set them all up again, sign into accounts one by one, etc. I'm sure you understand the hassle!
[Nexus 6P General] XxMORPHEOUSxX:
There is an adb command to backup data. You don't need root. I did this a while back for the same reason so I don't know if its outdated but here is a link.

[Nexus 6P General] mikespe:
To be honest, I NEVER heard of anyone having to sign into 300 apps on one phone before. On my Note 2 I had approx 300 apps but only had to sign into approx 30-40...and since many of them used existing accounts it wasn't all that bad. Good luck!
[Nexus 6P General] mahdibassam:

[Nexus 6P General] ZiCoN:
I'm only considering root on mine, because I love gaming with a gamepad but Moga apparently stopped support, so my Moga Pocket is useless without root.... In games where I need right analog stick anyway...
[Nexus 6P General] Gorgtech:
I rooted this phone right after I unboxed it ;)
[Nexus 6P General] badboy47:
I rooted before it arrived :>
[Nexus 6P General] MalekoUK:
Got it in November and not had one urge to root.

I rooted many many phones before and always went for custom ROMS, but just don't feel the need for it on the 6P, have no complaints. Got mainly fed up before with installing custom crap and flashing almost every week if not more.

Stock is brilliant, even stick with the Google Launcher after years of being a die hard Nova user.

People say, ah yes but what about Titanium Backup... no need for it! Not flashing from scratch, so no need. Also most apps have cloud backup feature, and if they don't you can export settings most of the time.

Adblocking?

Never been an issue for me, so I have no complaint about that.

It's nice to get the monthly security updates and any fixes they roll out, even if they don't arrive within first two weeks you always have option to flash the incremental update manually.

tldr; After years of flashing custom crap, nice to not feel the need for it.

[Nexus 6P General] geoff5093:
I feel exactly the same way. I spend WAY too much time tweaking Amplify, Greenify, and Doze settings, using different kernels and ROMs and tweaking them, etc. I am likely going back to stock and will try to stay there. Is your bootloader still unlocked though, or do you just wait for OTA updates?
[Nexus 6P General] MalekoUK:
With the 6.0.1 update I manually did it, only thing I did was tick the unlock bootloader in dev options, then flash the update and then untick the box after. Updated perfect and didn't wipe anything. (used the incremental update)

I then waited for the Jan update, and it came OTA on the 14th Jan. But as it didn't have any major updates as to features, I was happy to wait.
[Nexus 6P General] leondiouk:
after about a week but now i am constantly having random reboots and i am seriously thinking to factory reset it..
[Nexus 6P General] geoff5093:
I just finished flashing the stock images, then relocking the bootloader. I think it's going to be nice to not constantly tweak my phone daily. I even got rid of Nova and went with Google Now launcher, it's going to take some getting used to and I'm not a fan of the virtually non-existing settings, but it's less for me to waste time messing with.
[Nexus 6P General] firoz3321:
I downloaded the root kit before the device arrived :). Android without root, cannot imagine ;)

Ditto, unlocked the bootloader right out of the box, but no root for me.

rooted right away, when the last update came out i went back to stock/unrooted but left bootloader unlocked.

I dont have the need to root to unbloat like when I was on my Note3
[Nexus 6P General] AhsanU:
I waited a few minutes just to see if the phone booted and all that before I rooted.

Everyone has different reasons for rooting, but my primary concern is battery life. Even with doze, SoT has always been an issue with previous android phones. Now that I leave Bluetooth on all day - I need maximum battery life. This simply isn't possible without root, as pesky apps will remain running in the background without apps like greenify to nullify them.

I like Android Pay, so I'm running a systemless root in tandem with Chroma ROM. I like a circle battery, and the time being in the center. So.. to each his own, but not rooting this phone didn't even come across my mind at any point.
[Nexus 6P General] highvista:
I unlocked my boot loader right away but haven't rooted yet. I use Android Pay and am going to move to Project Fi in a few days, so I'm not going to root in the near term to make sure both of these keep working. I know that systemless root is working well for most people who want to continue using Android Pay, but there still seems to be a significant number of people who have problems. Once SuperSU matures a bit more and gets out of beta, I'll probably bite the bullet and root. I'd like to be able to use Titanium Backup. I also would like to start using BusyBox again for working at the command-line from the shell prompt of my phone. Even if I root, I'll stay stock. I haven't found a need to install custom ROMs or kernels since the days of the G1 and CyanogenMod, though I've rooted all of my past phones.
[Nexus 6P General] Pekempy:
Currently 24 hours in, but that's because I bought it 200 miles away from home and I'm waiting to get to my laptop. I honestly need root haha
[Nexus 6P General] jayesh:
Nope. Got the phone, had all plans for rooting it, used it for 10 days as is without missing anything. It's just working fine for my limited needs ( podcasts, skype calls + video, slack, telegram and whatsapp) Lots of RSS feed reading to and of course twitter.
[Nexus 6P General] [hfm]:
No. Still pure stock and loving the phone. I buy Nexus so I don't have to root to get the experience I want.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Saikat.mondol1:
Hello guys. I was having problems getting the update. Then I found out , you can Ruu with S-ON but needs Bootloader Re Locked. Anyway, as it's my first time I wanna ask few question so I don't end up with a dead phone.

So, what I understood is Ruu will update all the other partition except System/ROM. On S-ON it needs Re Locked bootloader, the Ruu needs to be higher version than the Hboot OS version, the Ruu needs to be fully stock and it'll wipe the Internal Storage.

So, I first use "fastboot oem lock" then " fastboot rebootRuu" "fastboot flash zip xxx.zip" then it'll stuck on 75%-90% and I'll have to use "fastboot reboot-bootloader".

And I'll get the Android M Bootloader, recovery and other stuffs, right?

Now I'll be at Bootloader, have to use that Token_Unlocker.bin to Unlock again, flash twrp and flash a Marshmallow ROM and It'll be fully Android M.

This is what I understood. Please tell me if I'm right or not. Correct me if I'm wrong. I can't S-OFF , so this is only way. I also don't want a hard brick. So, please help.

I have some questions though. I've currently Viperone 5.0 ROM on Lollipop base. Do I have to go back to stock ROM before I can use Ruu? Do I have to get Stock recovery before I can start Ruu? Will Ruu erase the ROM? If Ruu erase everything, will my memory card be safe or should I remove it before Ruu and insert it to flash ROM after Ruu is done?

Thanks in advance for replying.

Hi guys...maybe girls.

I would like to share a good work found via XDA (on another thread).

It is a good ROM based on latest V30B .

You can use another kernel (easily foundable on XDA) to increase performances.

I recommend to install directly after the ROM (As it does a factory reset) to have to whole benefit of MM and the framework.

I hope you will enjoy their hard work.

[G3 General] spinoza23:
this rom is from the same developers of novastock they stole others developments and implement it on his roms...

I thank guys who have done a lot of work for our beloved G3. That's all...xpirt is one of them.

hi, what kernel do you guys use with this rom? default or?

i have try flash xceede and flykernel but it seems not working with this rom.
[G3 General] Sipi1302:
So far no everything is working ok.
[G3 General] Killawave:
Marshmallow manage SD card differently. You have to give explicit rights to apps to access your external storage. That's all. No need to fix anything.

I use the kernel supplied by the ROM and everything works great. I've got a good score with AnTuTu.

I have also installed flykernel v4 and it works really great too. It increases greatly the performances of the G3.

So far, I have encountered no bug, no black screen, no lag, no intempestive reboot...noting...no problem at all. :good:

Thanks, Allen
[G3 General] ramnoob:
That's cool that devs are working on G3 but developer of this rom will bring MM to D850 anytime soon?
[G3 General] Killawave:
What I have understood about the modem is that v21 is stable and efficient...much more than the one which comes with v30.

You can give a try to the ROM and make your own advice. If you like Stock-based ROM, this one is really good.

You will have 2 ways to do so.

1) Make the installation normally. Let the ROM boot and when you can, reboot in recovery, do the factory reset in TWRP and then install the xpirt's zip.

2) Modify the "updater-script" file within the zip file of the ROM. You should delete the last line :

run_program("/sbin/reboot")

Then you will be able to install the xpirt file before the first reboot.

I have not tested so I'm not sure you will not face any problem.

For all these technical questions (Modem, OTA, portability and so on) I have no idea. Maybe we should learn spanish and go directly on the original thread. :good:

How does the overall performance of this rom compare to cm13 based ones? Any ui stuttering, frame skipping, heating, random reboots or worse fps counter in 3d games?

[G3 General] Rock-Ace:
All STOCK 6.0 ROMs are highly optimised and are super smooth. Use 21C modem zip

I am using STOCK 6.0 ROM 30B and its super smooth and no UI lag. Performance in terms of daily usage is at par with LG G4. I can't say about gaming but day to day usage is awesome silky smooth with 4.5-5 Hrs SOT in between 17 hours of battery usage from 100 to 15 % drop- and that's awesome battery life according to me because previously in Lollipop I used to get hardly 3 Hrs of SOT.

And just because of camera and ROM UI smoothness of 6.0 STOCK 30B I never looked back to AOSP ROMs.
[G3 General] zohaibkhan143:
Other variants ?
[G3 General] Killawave:
I totally agree with you.

Very good performances for day2day usage and the camera is very good too.

Why using AOSP when Stock is good? As the expression says...better is the enemy of good. :p
