Not really, twrp is doing everything for you, all you do is flash.

This vendor image is a zip file, so do I flash this zip in Recovery ? Or unzip on my PC and throw the .img on my sd/card ?
[Nexus 6P General] Badger50:
Go to TWRP and flash away like any other zip [emoji106]
[Nexus 6P General] kevkid:
Hi,

I have a 6p with multirom installed, which files do I need to get in order to flash it and use it with multirom?
[Nexus 6P General] Zorachus:
Ugh :( Didn't work.

I downloaded these two files to get N beta 4 on my phone;

- aLLin1-OTA 06-17 large 1.1GB file

- TWRP-VENDOR zip 06-17

I wiped and erased everything, except internal of course. I flashed the all in 1 zip, and then I went to flash the vendor zip, but it gave me an error. Not sure what I did wrong, I think I went to Install - Image - picked that zip, and it flashed with a red error.. And then I just tried flashing that Zip normally, without going to the Image part, I just flashed it in the install part of Recovery, gave me that same error.

I rebooted, and get the wobbly circle animation boot up, and then like 30 seconds later says "

Process system isn't responding

" Close App or Wait

UPDATE:

WORKING :) I went back into Recovery, wiped everything again, and this time first started with the Vendor image zip flashing, which worked :) And then I flashed the Allin1 zip, which worked too, and it booted up to N :)
[Nexus 6P General] jaythenut:
If it's the error right at the end that's normal and don't worry about it just reboot and wait up to 10 minutes

Oops didn't see your edit lol?

You have to be decrypted.

I've had Waze issues recently as well, and yes, that will erase user data. No other way that I'm aware of to decrypt

Is anyone getting a message that there isn't enough space in the vendor folder for Layers overlays? I checked and there's only 1.86 mb free in the folder.
[Nexus 6P General] DAE1964:
Someone posted a layers version in this thread that works by creating a symlink. Using it myself. Just do a search for layers.apk.

I've been having problems with quick reply with hangouts. It doesn't send the message till I open the conversation. Anyone having this issue?
[Nexus 6P General] Nitemare3219:
Can't you do fastboot format userdata as well? I thought erasing and flashing userdata.img could cause partition size problems with 64GB and 128GB devices.
[Nexus 6P General] Mikey:
Anyone having time issues? I just noticed this today.

Edit: turned out to being the new update to the Google app causing it.
[Nexus 6P General] sn0warmy:
Just came back to N after being back on MM for the past month. After reading about the freezes people have been experiencing on the preview 4 build, I went with the following setup, right off the bat:

Flashed NPD56N factory image

Flashed SuperSU 2.74-2

Flashed Elemental X kernel

Changed the background process limit to 4

Hopefully there won't be freezes with this setup, but we shall see.
[Nexus 6P General] nitewalker033:
Build 4 with elemental kernel = no freezes for me.
[Nexus 6P General] Nitemare3219:
Was having freezes on factory image, unencrypted, with latest beta SuperSU (as was my girlfriend whose phone I setup the exact same way). Still running stock kernel, but with background limit of 4 - no freezing since then on either phone.

EDIT: Just froze when I went to snap a picture really quick. Installing EX to see if it fixes the issue.
[Nexus 6P General] 1112ee:
Should we be expecting preview 5 soon? I believe the website says it's scheduled for July, hoping for sooner rather than later
[Nexus 6P General] LosserKlosser:
I'm using HD Widgets and it can't find a location on preview 4. Worked perfectly on preview 3. GPS navigation in maps works like it should, though.

Well google releases new builds on Wednesdays and they have been averaging about 1 month between new releases for the developer previews. I'm guessing either the 13th or 20th of this month we should see something.
[Nexus 6P General] eman3316@optonline.net:
The freezes on preview 4 are out of control! Almost daily here. I actually just came here to see if it was my phone or the build and was thinking about going back to MM.

Running stock encrypted with systemless root. I am glad to see it doesn't seem to be just my phone. Makes me feel a little better.
[Nexus 6P General] steviemch:
I've had no freezes whatsoever on the latest preview. Systemless, decrypted. Running ElementalX kernel which may be the difference.

Nexus 6P
[Nexus 6P General] Michael in ATL:
I'm running this configuration as well (with Elemental X), and getting daily hangs and spontaneous reboots.
[Nexus 6P General] steviemch:
Hmm, strange. I've actually had almost none of the issues that others have reported with any of the previews. Spontaneous reboots on DP3, but only every so often. Have you tried setting the background process limit to 4 in developer options?

Nexus 6P
[Nexus 6P General] Michael in ATL:
I have, actually. These problems are bit of a pain, but they don't call it a beta preview for nothin'...[emoji6]
[Nexus 6P General] steviemch:
Exactly the attitude you need when flashing previews ?

Nexus 6P
[Nexus 6P General] DAE1964:
Same setup here, no freezing at all.
[Nexus 6P General] eman3316@optonline.net:
Release 3 acted more like a beta. Release 4 seems more like an alpha. I hope they push an update out earlier then the usually month time frame.

Anyone who has not jumped in yet and are thinking about, my advice is to wait.
[Nexus 6P General] mtnlion:
4 is rock solid for me. Encrypted,rooted,Elementalx and layers.
[Nexus 6P General] blitzerking1:
Preview 4 is also very stable for me. I updated from preview 3 and I'm using elementalx 3.03
[Nexus 6P General] vagenrider:
me too..no problems..by the way can you send me your layers apk you using?
[Nexus 6P General] kellybrf:
the hangs are driving me crazy, easily 3-5 reboots a day. I'm stock rooted, if I use exkm can I flash the kernel through the app with the stock recovery or do I need twrp?
[Nexus 6P General] noooooo:
SuperSu 2.74 is the problem, install another version and the reboots will be gone
[Nexus 6P General] simorangkir_dcs:
What super su version do you suggest?
[Nexus 6P General] noooooo:
I think I'm on 2.72 and no freezes
[Nexus 6P General] DAE1964:
I have 2.74-2 installed without issue's
[Nexus 6P General] noooooo:
I knew only about the first release of 2.74, not the -2 version, maybe he solved with an update
[Nexus 6P General] 1112ee:
I've had freezes on both 2.72 and 2.74-2

Yes there is it's on here somewhere maybe about 15 pages back
[Nexus 6P General] tsuttie99:
I used Data saver when i ran up on my limit last month and i couldn't send MMS either, no issues with Quick reply though. I figured MMS would not send as data saver essentially disables background services ability to use cellular data. MMS uses cellular data although most carriers dont count it towards your monthly usage. So i just assumed that maybe Google has not whitelisted the MMS service to be allowed to use cellular data while data saver is enabled.
[Nexus 6P General] bgboii:
I wish they would fix that. But then again its beta so I hope they fix that on the final one. I'm still waiting for DP5. Wonder when it will come out.
[Nexus 6P General] tsuttie99:
Same, I have some weird bugs on dp4 that I'm hoping get resolved.
[Nexus 6P General] sharkie405:
I've was on DP4 since having gotten my phone about a month ago, and I just couldn't take it anymore. My phone would freeze about 7 or 8 times a day minimum. It happened so randomly and so often that I wasn't even able to pin point when or why it happened. Today I went back to Marshmallow, and my phone hasn't frozen once all day. I loved being on the latest release, but damn, I just couldn't take it anymore. I'll try DP5 when it comes out, though. Hopefully it'll be less buggy.
[Nexus 6P General] Mikey:
Same here

Sent from my Nexus 6P
[Nexus 6P General] Michael in ATL:
I'm still running it, but same here as well. Surely DP5 will be much better, but I'm seriously thinking of going back to Pure Nexus.
[Nexus 6P General] mochamoo:
Did you change your max running processes to 4 in developer options? Been running dp4 fine here.
[Nexus 6P General] DAE1964:
Running dp4 with elemental x for n with no lag or freezing issues at all
[Nexus 6P General] skw5115:
Running it on the stock kernel and I don't have those issues at all. Just layers issue (they need updated) and responding to texts from the heads up notification won't clear the notification. Also, if I have more than 1 text message in the status bar, it wont send my reply. That's literally it for me
[Nexus 6P General] tacofromhell:
Are you rooted? I had similar problems when I was rooted but they all went away after a clean flash without root.
[Nexus 6P General] blitzerking1:
Same here. I upgraded from DP3 using Google's images and fastboot.
[Nexus 6P General] Michael in ATL:
I am running a fairly heavily modified version. Rooted with unencrypted boot image plus Viper. I've tried limiting background processes but it hasn't helped much.

In addition to lag/system-hangs, I also get terrible battery life.

I got dual-booting working with PureNexus last night, and will likely soldier on until DP5 - hopefully next week. (It'll be interesting to compare performance on current setup).

Thanks for the responses and suggestions guys.
[Nexus 6P General] ace-user:
May I know how stable is DP4 at the moment? I'm running everything stock and non-rooted. Would love to try DP4, if there's no major issues.
[Nexus 6P General] kellybrf:
seriously? it's not like you have to even read the whole thread, just the posts immediately preceding yours would have answered your question
[Nexus 6P General] ace-user:
I knew I would have gotten a response like this and I don't blame u. I did read through the last few pages but there's very little info on bugs on stock and unrooted DP4. Mostly are just bug reports on custom kernels or rooted DP4 :/
[Nexus 6P General] dbrohrer:
-Messenger replies have to be manually swiped away.

-Download notifications return after you dismiss it (no matter how many times you dismiss the download complete notification, it comes back a few min later).

-Wifi and Bluetooth open expanded from the notification drawer (this is not a bug, but annoying).

-Lots of apps FC or are improperly formatted

I had the freezes everyone is reporting when I was rooted with custom kernel. I tried every kernel with similar results. Reflashed stock unrooted with stock encrypted boot. No freezes, hangs, or reboots.

Overall experience is ok if you don't want / need root and custom kernel. Some minor annoyances but smooth, fast, good battery life.

Hope this helps.
[Nexus 6P General] ace-user:
Thanks a lot man really helpful response.

I just flashed DP4 like half an hour ago and everything seems smooth and slick.

Only annoying bug is how the WhatsApp notification in the notification tray only shows the latest message instead of all the previous messages (like in mm). Also the WhatsApp emoji tray takes up the whole screen when it should just be occupying the keyboard space.
[Nexus 6P General] N3V3RS3TTL3:
I've been on every DP and I have absolutely no problems on DP4. I am stock, locked bootloader and have no lag, freezing, or performance issues.
[Nexus 6P General] Kocai:
The WhatsApp emoji tray bug is fixed on the beta release. It should be on the official version soon.

" Support and Release Notes

In this document

Developer Preview 5

General advisories

Developer Preview 5

Date: July 2016

Build: NPD90G

Emulator support: x86 & ARM (32/64-bit)

Google Play services: 8.4

General advisories

This Developer Preview release is for app developers and other early adopters and is available for daily use, development, or compatibility testing. Please be aware of these general notes about the release:

This release may have various stability issues on supported devices.

Some apps may not function as expected on the new platform version. This includes Google’s apps as well as other apps.

Developer Preview 5 is Compatibility Test Suite (CTS) approved on these devices: Nexus 5X, Nexus 6, Nexus 6P, Nexus 9, and Pixel C. Apps that depend on CTS approved builds should work normally on these devices (Android Pay for example).

Developer Preview 5 is available on Nexus 5X, Nexus 6, Nexus 6P, Nexus 9, Nexus Player, Pixel C, and General Mobile 4G (Android One).

New in DP5

Updated system images for supported devices and emulator

Developer Preview 5 includes near-final system images for supported devices and the Android emulator. The images include the final APIs (API level 24) for the upcoming Android N platform. When you are done testing, you can publish apps using API level 24 to Google Play, in alpha, beta, and production release channels.

Known Issues

Stability

Users may encounter system instability (such as kernel panics and crashes).

Multi-window

MapView may be blank when resized in multi-window mode and not focused.

Camera

Apps may encounter Intermittent issues recording and playing back video at 240fps.

Do Not Disturb

Do Not Disturb mode may be set at device reboot. To work around the issue, delete the existing rule for VR as follows: go to Settings > Sound > Do not disturb > Automatic Rules and tap the trash icon next to the VR rule.

Screen zoom and multiple APKs in Google Play

On devices running Developer Preview 5, Google Play services 9.0.83 incorrectly reports the current screen density rather than the stable screen density. When screen zoom is enabled on these devices, this can cause Google Play to select a version of a multi-APK app that’s designed for smaller screens. This issue is fixed in the next version of Google Play services.

Vulkan support and multiple APKs in Google Play

On devices running Developer Preview 5, Google Play services 9.0.83 currently reports Vulkan support but not Vulkan version. This can cause Google Play to select a version of a multi-APK app that’s designed for lower Vulkan support on devices with higher version support. Currently, the Google Play Store does not accept uploads of Apps which use Vulkan version targeting. This support will be added to the Google Play Store in the future any Android N devices using the Google Play services 9.0.83 will continue to receive versions of Apps targeting basic Vulkan support.

[Nexus 6P General] kenshiroSG24:
How to install the OTA if not rooted with no custom recovery?
[Nexus 6P General] chikess:
Boot into Recovery, go to update via sideload / adb , send the ota via adb sideload "file" command. Make sure that u have the latest adb and usb drivers.
[Nexus 6P General] bouchigo:
I'm not sure what you mean by "lose anything", but if you aren't encrypted now then you will stay that way.

Sure, give me a few.

All the OTA does is use open recovery script and go flash the zip just like twrp does I think. Makes since, the zip is set up exactly like regular flashable ones.

[Nexus 6P General] tsuttie99:
Did you use the modified boot.img? I remember some very similar issues with DP4. Issue was due to stock boot forcing encryption. I believe the solution was to format userdata via adb.

Are you trying to run TWRP with the DP5 or M vendor.img? If DP5, fastboot the M vendor.img, boot to TWRP, root, then flash the DP5 vendor.img, and off you go.
