Just download the factory image and extract system.img + vendor.img along with downloading the decrypted boot.img some pages back (if you don't want encryption that is) and flash through twrp to their respective partitions.

Alternatively you could try downloading Google's OTA zip and replacing the boot.img inside with the unencrypted one, but I'm not sure replacing files works with Google's zips.

Download ota zip flash in twrp then flash boot img then SuperSU reboot and done that's what I done
[Nexus 6P General] JonasVFC:
even with that on, mine was not working. i had to flash the images again through fastboot

I got trouble restoring apps with titanium backup... It just hang... Any ideas on what wrong?
[Nexus 6P General] Lijop:

is the procedure still the same?
[Nexus 6P General] jaythenut:
Do you mean your on dp4 and want dp5 if so yes worked for me
[Nexus 6P General] Lijop:
sorry, yeah am on dp4. Thanks mate
[Nexus 6P General] Mikulec:
I don't have the toggle. I think the toggle stayed there if you came from DP4. And it's not there for those that have clean-flashed DP5.
[Nexus 6P General] jaythenut:
Oh dam, is not on the second page of the notification panel
[Nexus 6P General] Michael in ATL:
My first run-through with upgrading via fastboot, unencrypted image, and then flashing SuperSU 2.76 plus a bunch of other zips was also a disaster. I used flashboot to completely clean install with the unencrypted image and only flashed SuperSU the first swing, and things have gone much better. I've been on N since DP1, and all four were plagued with hangs, poor RAM mgmt, etc.

I can't say whether DP5 boots slower, but all of the problems I had with DP1-4 are gone. It runs quite smoothly, though I wish battery life was better. All this is to say, perhaps give it another shot?

PS - I used XDA RC Dhananjay's instructions here: http://www.droidorigin.com/install-android-n-developer-preview/ . (hat tip)
[Nexus 6P General] Mikulec:
No, its not there, I think Google removed it, but its still available for some people who came from DP4.
[Nexus 6P General] Chris Hansen:
I ran into the same issue, so I just installed the apps manually and then restored via TiBu successfully. It's not ideal, but it worked.
[Nexus 6P General] bgboii:
Awesome thanks I'll give it a try!
[Nexus 6P General] tsuttie99:
Is anyone aware of a way to remove the Android Beta Program popup on boot? It's a minor annoyance.
[Nexus 6P General] Michael in ATL:
The solution is listed here in this thread somewhere. Search here for "yadayada", as that's the name of the folder to remove.
[Nexus 6P General] tsuttie99:
Thank you!! I had no idea what to search for. I tried n boot message etc etc but nothing....
[Nexus 6P General] justin1221:
Did you try disabling mount name separation in supersu? This used to work months ago, don't know if it still applies. And make sure ti backup has the correct app permissions.
[Nexus 6P General] tsuttie99:
Can somebody on DP5 please upload their stock framework-res.apk? I was fu**ing around and messed mine up without a backup... tisk tisk...

Is there any issues with twrp recovery if coming from mm to dp5?
[Nexus 6P General] Michael in ATL:
N encrypts by default and TWRP can't read encrypted, so yes to your question. You need to search back in this forum for "unencrypted" and you'll find out more plus workarounds
[Nexus 6P General] sjknight413:
Any chance anybody has a flashable zip for the N preview 5 bootloader and radio? No access to my laptop for a while!
[Nexus 6P General] jaythenut:
The IMG are here on second page https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=search&s=angler&type=files
[Nexus 6P General] sjknight413:
That's not a flashable zip. I said I don't have access to my laptop for a while so clearly can't flash through fastboot.
[Nexus 6P General] jaythenut:
Lol boot img can be flashed in twrp

Any way http://rootjunkysdl.com/files/?dir=Nexus 6P Angler download the dp5 from here and pull the zip you want all are can be flashed in twrp
[Nexus 6P General] sjknight413:
I think you misread my original question, I'm looking for a flashable zip for the bootloader and radio of DP5, bootloader and radio partitions cannot be flashed to from within twrp.
[Nexus 6P General] DaveHTC200:
If you flash the OTA through twrp then it will update the radio and bootloader
[Nexus 6P General] sjknight413:
Yes I know that, but I'm already on DP5 through flashing system.img and vendor.img through fastboot to avoid encryption so i don't want to have to reflash everything to use an ota.
[Nexus 6P General] Shaglok:
If you flash supersu inmediatly after flashing the ota in twpr it will unencrypt.
[Nexus 6P General] sjknight413:
Yes dude, I know that. This thread is filled with people that automatically assume someone is stupid isn't it?

The point of my original question was to ask if there was a flashable zip for the latest bootloader and radio kicking about but since there isn't there is no need to keep recommending I flash an ota.

I've put together the DP5 flash able all in one just like [MENTION=1306381]fLipz[/MENTION] "all-in-one-flashable.zips". I'm awaiting permission from him to post since I used his "decrypted" boot.img. so as soon as I hear it's OK to post I'll put it up.
[Nexus 6P General] Shaglok:
Wow. Sorry, friend. Just trying to help.
[Nexus 6P General] mattwheat:
Sorry wrong person , it was [MENTION=790321]bouchigo[/MENTION] that posted the boot.img that doesn't force encrypt not [MENTION=1306381]fLipz[/MENTION]

I've messaged bouchigo for permission so as soon as I get the OK to use his boot.img I will post an all in one flash able of the DP5 OTA. I tested on my 6p and I'm running it now. It's super smooth. Works great.
[Nexus 6P General] sjknight413:
That's absolutely perfect!

Thanks man

Edit: actually I don't think that's a flashable unfortunately, just a packaged zip with the img files
[Nexus 6P General] Badger50:
Sorry man, was just trying help with a link. Haven't used it myself, just saw it floating around the other day.
[Nexus 6P General] Michael in ATL:
Jay, you've forgotten more than I know about Android, but is it possible to flash radio and bootloader? I thought they could only be loaded via fastboot. Am I wrong? (I'm used to it....haha)
[Nexus 6P General] steviemch:
Yep, radio and bootloader can only be flashed with fastboot.

[Nexus 6P General] mickyw1980:
Right, coming from a CM13 ROM and never tried any of the DP Roms. I am encrypted also. I want to be unencrypted. I have downloaded the latest image from Google. Extracted system, boot and vendor.

I'm going to erase user data via fastboot to be unencrypted is that correct? Then flash the images through twrp then flash latest SuperSU zip.

Am I correct or am I missing anything?
[Nexus 6P General] mochamoo:
backup your sdcard if that is important to you.
[Nexus 6P General] tsuttie99:
You'll also need the modified boot.img to stay unencrypted on first boot. There's a thread on here for that.

Edit: link to [MENTION=5317224]Tigerstown[/MENTION] post for the boot.img

Does anyone else have the auto rotation issues? Seems to come and go, temporary fix seems to be by restarting the phone. But it comes back after a while. ?

Update: issues seems to come from Pokemon Go (I know). But I don't have solid evidence apart from the fact that not having ran Pokemon Go for two days seems to have prevented auto rotation from breaking so far
[Nexus 6P General] bouchigo:
I had it happen once a couple of days ago, haven't had it happen since.
[Nexus 6P General] deathschild:
Is anyone else experiencing issues with Doze in DP5? My phone won't doze at all and is only giving me between 2.5 and 3 hours SoT. Tried OTA and Sideload. Both have same issue.
[Nexus 6P General] Won't be druv:
I installed the ota zip from Google, flashed the modified boot in this thread (do that before booting or you'll lose twrp) and then flashed supersu. All is good! You can revert to mm if you like but the preview is pretty good. I love it as all my banking apps work unlike with a custom ROM.
[Nexus 6P General] dex2grigg:
Battery life is terrible
[Nexus 6P General] milestone2mod:
Depends on what you're doing with the device. One thing I particularly noticed was the device heating up, even when just YouTube watching or browsing. That was running encrypted though, usually I'm unencrypted. Yesterday I switched to file-based encryption (available in developer options). I'm still having problems with heating, but I'll give it a few days to settle.
[Nexus 6P General] DaveHTC200:
I agree with this, I know it's a beta still but expected it to improve every update, sadly it hasn't, still hopefully the final release will resolve this issue
[Nexus 6P General] jaythenut:
And I agree with you too first day was fine but now not so good flashed a custom kernel to see if it helps
[Nexus 6P General] galakanokis:
Battery life was hit and miss over a week or so. I lost 15% idling over night and the only lost 20% while at work for the rest of the day. It made no sense as this happened over a few days. No idea if it is signal related but I actually got better battery on LTE than when I was on wifi.

Overall I really like N but I'll wait for official now, need a little more consistent battery.
[Nexus 6P General] BakedTator:
Using kylo kernel, rooted, busybox, slightly debloated, and dynamic nav bar and got 2 hours of Pokemon go while tethering, and still had 40% battery left last night... What kernel are you running?

Stock kernel unrooted lol
[Nexus 6P General] BakedTator:
Root, get kylo kernel (r32 aosp 4.9) and use ex kernel manager...you will be happy with the results...but be sure flash the modified boot.img first so you can boot I to twrp

Just wanted to put this out there for anyone, who like myself, had a miserable experience on dp4... dp5 is treating me great! I'm rooted on Elemental kernel and I've not had one freeze or otherwise weird thing happen to me yet, and I've been running it for a few days now.

That link has the right boot.img but you are going to have to backup your entire sdcard to your computer, use fastboot to flash it, then wipe everything off your sdcard in fastboot using the "fastboot format userdata" command so that your device is unencrypted...after you do that, you will have full access to twrp while using Android n

Just got done flashing everything. Freaked out a little near the end, because SDK didn't want to flash the system image.

[Nexus 6P General] bouchigo:
Yeah finally, they sure took their sweet time... 5 months basically.

Viper4Android creators are still lagging though... That app hasn't been updated in a while either, and still requires Permissive mode to work correctly ?
[Nexus 6P General] sharkie405:
This is by no means a solution to your problem, but just an observation I've had regarding the non-rotating screen. Might it have anything to do with the vendor.img?

I only say that because I dirty flashed to DP5 from marshmallow. I didn't want to have to format my phone for like the 10th time, and so I can't use TWRP while on DP5's vendor.img. I have to flash the Marshmallow vendor.img, then go into TWRP and do what I have to do, then when I'm done I flash back to the DP5 vendor.img. I've noticed that while on the Marshmallow vendor.img, one of the things that doesn't work right when I boot up my phone is that it won't rotate. I assume you flashed the DP5 vendor.img, but I just thought I'd throw this out there on the off chance that maybe that has something to do with it. Maybe try re-flashing just the vendor.img as a hail mary move?
[Nexus 6P General] spotmark:
Thanks, for now I have just gone back to DU, but I might give it another try when I have more time this weekend. Why aren't you just using the modified boot image so you can use TWRP?
[Nexus 6P General] sharkie405:
Because it's my understanding that to use the modified boot.img you have to format userdata (more importantly, wipe internal storage). I keep about 20 GB of music on my phone, and it's a pain to have to keep transferring the music back to my phone after having wiped it. It's not like I'm in TWRP everyday. Pretty much, I use TWRP once to flash all my stuff and then I don't really have a need for it, and if I do, it only takes a second to flash the MM vendor.img, do what I need to do, the flash the N vendor.img back. Once the "official" version of N comes out, I'll wipe my phone and do a proper install. However, so far as I can tell, "dirty" flashing DP 5 over MM has had no ill effects.
[Nexus 6P General] masri1987:
Can i flash this even if i'm still on Marshmallow?
[Nexus 6P General] mickyw1980:

Yes, the bootloader is backwards compatible. The radio is forward and backwards

[Nexus 6P General] Chris Hansen:
Just in case you, or anyone else is curious, you don't have to format your phone when flashing a modified boot image. I went from Pure Nexus straight to rooted DP5 with modified boot without wiping internal storage. There's a few posts out there with the exact steps, but basically, you just do an advanced wipe in TWRP before flashing everything (skipping internal storage wipe).
[Nexus 6P General] BakedTator:
Only reason anyone would have to format their internal data is if they where encrypted and want to be unencrypted to use twrp while on dp5
[Nexus 6P General] sharkie405:
So, am I correct in thinking that in order to use twrp while on dp5, you have to wipe internal storage? Or is Chris saying that it's possible to use twrp while on dp5 without having to swap out vendor images?
[Nexus 6P General] BakedTator:
You only have to wipe storage if you are already encrypted

Are you playing Pokemon Go?

The game breaks rotation. After a reboot everything is fine until you start playing.

I have the problem with my Nexus 6P running N P5 but also on a Nexus 7 (2013) running MM.

It has nothing to do with the App running in the background, you can even close it. Only thing that helps me is a reboot.

Gesendet von meinem Nexus 6P mit Tapatalk
[Nexus 6P General] Michael in ATL:
I have it working. I was running layers so I had to remove my theme, then delete /system/overlay folder. Rebooted, installed Substratum and themes from Playstore and successfully themed Magpie.

Substratum seems pretty cool.
[Nexus 6P General] phillymade:
Do you still have to reboot for themes to apply?
[Nexus 6P General] Michael in ATL:
Yes, to my recollection
[Nexus 6P General] ogretech:
I believe you do in cases where the rom does not specifically support substratum (in which case, I think it reverts to what is basically layers/RRO). This is not required on a compatible rom where it can compile and apply the theme without the reboot.

[Nexus 6P General] DJBhardwaj:
That is the stock recovery. Are you sure that you flashed TWRP after N preview installation?
[Nexus 6P General] Michael in ATL:
A couple of thoughts. "N" defaults to encryption, and TWRP cannot read the encrypted storage. That said, if you're seeing the Android robot, I'm thinking TWRP got wiped out - sounds like you're back to stock there. Are you still rooted?

[Nexus 6P General] sn0warmy:
How about fast charging?

Sorry for the questions, but with the N preview and stock kernel I was getting stuttering, keyboard lag, and fast charging wasn't working. But if a custom kernel resolves all of that, then I could see myself going back to N as a daily driver.
[Nexus 6P General] deskjet390:
You can't keep data. You have to wipe everything. Make sure to flash modified boot. IMG before getting out of twrp.
[Nexus 6P General] farhan141:
But if I'm making it as secondary ROM then isn't data already clean?
[Nexus 6P General] deskjet390:
You can't make it secondary ROM.
[Nexus 6P General] ilia1985:
You can probably make it as a primary ROM using kylo kernel as it's the only one that's supports N and has hardboot patch and you will need a non encrypted N setup to avoid issues with installing multirom. As I have tried on encrypted and it didn't work fails at final step of installing in twrp.
[Nexus 6P General] DJBhardwaj:
Just to add, franco's kernel is now available too, for N Preview.
