Motorola and Verizon have stated that they will not update the XT1096 to MM or 6.x so there is no "official" Marshmallow firmware from Motorola for this phone.

You can find an 99% stock MM ROM here: http://xdaforums.com/moto-x-2014/development/rom-xt1096-verizon-flashable-stock-rom-t3327345. Please read the full thread and ask questions there about this ROM. Some people - including me - are using it as their daily driver with little to no issues. This ROM has all the Motorola apps (Voice, Display, etc.) working as expected from a stock ROM.

Another option CM13. Read this thread :http://xdaforums.com/moto-x-2014/orig-development/rom-official-cm-13-0-nightly-releases-t3256580/post65781867#post65781867. CM13 works on the XT1096 and other CM13-based ROMs should work but you will need to verify by reading their threads. Please be sure to read the full thread and ask questions there about CM13 or in the other threads related to other ROMs.

This is assuming that you are on the Verizon network and want to keep CDMA functionality. If you are using this phone on a GSM network and do not care to keep the CDMA access then you might want to look here: http://xdaforums.com/moto-x-2014/general/guide-xt1097-to-xt1095-nextel-t2972693

All of the options above require that you have an unlocked bootloader. If your bootloader is locked please go here to learn about unlocking it: http://xdaforums.com/moto-x-2014/general/motorola-unlocking-verizon-moto-x-2014-t3291104

XT1085

Hello everyone,

I'm currently using the moto X 2nd generation bought in china (XT1085) running android 5.0.2.

I would like to get rid of the retcn version of the system because I don't speak chinese for a retEU or retUS and install android 6 MM. Is it possible?

My phone is rooted and TWRP recovery installed

I tried to install this version : Version 6, because one guy wrote on the topic that it worked on TX1085 but it failed for me, and my phone stayed on the Motorola launching screen.

So now I'm back with the factory setup and would like to now how to install android 6.0?

Thanks :)

Hey Guys! I have a locked motorola moto x 2nd gen, verizon variant (xt1096). I want to unlock its bootloader for upgrading to marshmallow (6.0), tried to unlock through Motorola's website, but my phone's not eligible for it. So is there any other way to unlock bootloader.

[SuperSU] topjohnwu:
Hello everyone :)

I believe many people cannot wait to use the latest Android N Preview on their Nexus devices, but found out that root still isn't available. The first root method appears HERE, done by [MENTION=1915408]phhusson[/MENTION].

If people wanted to use SuperSU for some reason, I created this small flashable zip.

Based on nearly the same thoughts but combined with [MENTION=631273]Chainfire[/MENTION] systemless method, this root is also done by setting SELinux to PERMISSIVE.

SuperSU-v2.68-Android-N (fixed)

The zip comes with aroma installer, so you can choose your device within the menu.

Instructions:

(TWRP is working and you're not encrypted) Flash the zip with TWRP directly

(Your device is encrypted, and want to stay encrypted) TWRP will enter a loop. Wait for a while and it will boot eventually, then use adb sideload to flash the zip.

(Your device is encrypted, and you want to decrypt, or TWRP is not working for you) Extract the zip, flash the boot.img for your device through fastboot, then revert to stock recovery. Then do a "Factory Reset" to wipe everything. Now you are decrypted can use TWRP normally.

Features:

Supports Nexus 9, 6P, 6, and 5X

Disabled force-encryption (encrypted users can still use it with no problems)

BusyBox is pre-installed as well.

Tested on my Nexus 9, Screenshot:
[SuperSU] ohad129:
How can i flash zip? How to choose my device please specify

[SuperSU] anuraj1:
I'd love to use this, but I don't have TWRP installed. Is there a working TWRP for the N Preview? TWRP 3.0.0-1 apparently causes bootloops.
[SuperSU] topjohnwu:
It will boot up eventually :)

Wait for a while, TWRP will give up trying to decrypt data after multiple retries.

It will prompt to enter password, press cancel and use adb sideload to flash the zip.
[SuperSU] minieod:
this completely broke the phone for me. cant get through a boot, stuck on boot animation.

couldnt get into recovery. had to reflash a different boot.img to get anything working

[SuperSU] topjohnwu:
Would you report what models are you using? I'll check if things are messed up. For me on the Nexus 9 it's working good.
[SuperSU] themustached:
You need to rewrite your aroma script, it flashes all of the kernels right after another so the selection doesn't work right. It just causes it not to boot. I edited out everything except for the Nexus 6p from the script and got it to work fine for me.
[SuperSU] topjohnwu:

I wanted to try N, and at the same time, this post reignited my desire to try without encryption.

[SuperSU] topjohnwu:
Thanks for the feedback, I'll try to fix Nexus 6 issues in my free time.

Keep in mind though, I don't have the device, but still I'll try my best.

Every time when a newer version of android is out, the encryption method will change, and TWRP will fail to decrypt it.

You can choose to

Use ADB SideLoad function in TWRP to flash the zip. By doing so you can bypass data.

Select "Format Data" in the wipe menu, then flash my zip in order to prevent encryption, then TWRP will work as usual (Note: All internal data will disappear after choosing Format Data)

(You have to be careful in the future, if you flash a kernel such as stock kernel that is encrypted by default, your data will be encrypted after switching kernel)
[SuperSU] cocchiararo:
After formating and flashing your thing to preventivo encription, can you restore a nandroid, or would that restore encrypted data?

First time I tried this it got stuck at the Nexus logo and looped a couple of times. I aborted but then read about needing to let it sit a little bit longer. I tried it again and it looped twice at the logo then went to the boot animation. After that it booted rather fast. Everything working great. Thanks for getting me rooted.
[SuperSU] omgflyingbanana:
I've been stuck on the TWRP logo for 3 hours... I don't think it's a boot loop.
[SuperSU] swapavi:
On Nexus 6p - Flashed factory image and official twrp 3.0.0.1 then a non encrypt boot IMG found in one of the general threads, then format data in fast boot. Booted up to make sure I was decrypted, then booted to recovery (twrp - official 3.0.0.1 actually boots) then flashed the SuperSU zip from OP.

Phone booted up just fine and root works perfectly. Adaway works great and edited kernel settings in ex kernel manager just fine.
[SuperSU] topjohnwu:
Not sure about that, but I think it should work fine.

So the nexus 6 boot image is actually working? Nice to hear this!!

I'll add instructions to decrypt your device in the OP soon (I'm on mobile now). However, you can search around the forum to find tutorials about decrypting.
[SuperSU] ManikandanGuru:
I'd rather wait for a fixed version.

I don't want to let the phone bootloop and stuck for a while (an hour or so here somebody reported)

The phone gets hot and battery drains too.

Need a quick method like the 5X and 6P people reported.

Thanks for the suggestion though. :)

Good for you it worked. :good:

I did pretty much the same with my 6p except I run encrypted. Running N I flashed this boot.img booted up then fastboot twrp 3.0.0.0 *3.0.0.1 didn't work for me* then adb sideloaded this zip.

I'm on Nexus 6 and I have the OTA N preview. I am encypted. I am concerned that using your zip will break my ability to take OTA's. How does this Root method work. Does it installed a variation of Systemless root, or does it modify the System Partition. Does it modify the stock Bootloader. Can these modifications be reversed to be able to take the next N OTA?

By the way, I tried flashing and bootlooped for a long time. Never booted. So I reverted back to my Nandroid.
[SuperSU] osi13:
I wasn't able to flash the .zip though twrp like I typically do. I had to sideload it. I tried flashing it 4 or 5 times, and even though I was told everything flashed successfully, supersu never appeared in the app drawer and if I installed supersu from the play store I was told the su binary was missing.

Anyway, I was able to get it to work by using adb sideload in twrp.

Oh yeah, and I am running without encryption. I used the boot.img from tigerstown and then inputted fastboot format userdata to disable forced encryption. I have no idea why it wouldn't flash in twrp.
[SuperSU] topjohnwu:
I think I know the reason why some Nexus 6 users are having issues. I missed the "encryptable" flag in the fstab, so encrypted users will never boot up.

I'll release an update when I get hands on my computer.
