i was on pure nexus flashed multirom files successfully with mr-twrp

after successfully flashing the above 3 zips i cant access recovery anymore

so i fastbooted twrp3.0.2 the official one successfully but i cant access it also
[Nexus 6P General] Upstreammiami:
Did you decrypt ?
[Nexus 6P General] JamFan05:
You have to be decrypted for TWRP to work on the previews. In fastboot run "fastboot format userdata" then flash TWRP and it should work
[Nexus 6P General] rdoane:
Is is anyone using the Data Saver feature to get better battery life? I didn't think it was an interesting feature when it was first introduced. But when I was poking around in there today I realized you can limit the data use of Google Play Services which is a huge cause of wakelocks and alarms.
[Nexus 6P General] seanjenks:
I'm encrypted and using the N preview all you have to do is flash the vendor as a zip before booting into the rom the first time. I haven't had any issues with it not booting due to me being encrypted.

is it a bad idea to try to dirty flash this over paranoid androids latest marshmallow release? or should i play it safe and copy everything over from my phone to my hard drive and then flash like a good little boy?
[Nexus 6P General] indian84:
Be a good boy. It never hurts to have a backup.
[Nexus 6P General] force70:
I wouldn't dirty flash but why would you need to copy everything to do a clean flash lol?

[Nexus 6P General] Pinak.ahuja:
Can I apply the DP4 full OTA zip over DP3 without losing any data?
[Nexus 6P General] :
I don't recommend that because everyone I've seen who has had problems didn't clean flash. Use TB to backup, pretty easy restore if you have pro.
[Nexus 6P General] darklimits:
is there a particular procedure i have to follow to get android pay to work with systemless root on preview 4.

I installed the latest preview

ran CF root

flashed decrypt boot.img

flash supersu 2.74

but no luck. any ideas? thanks.
[Nexus 6P General] aSquard:
HEY looks like no one answered your question. I had this same issue. Updated my SDK (which updates fastboot and adb) which allowed me to flash system.img

---------- Post added at 11:10 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:06 AM ----------

I can't log into Snapchat either, buddy of mine has the same issue on N Preview. I think it's been reported as not working.
[Nexus 6P General] Pmmac:
Thanks for the reply. I did not think of that. I ended up flashing MM then taking OTA preview.
[Nexus 6P General] deskjet390:
Flashing the OTA zip works perfectly of you wipe data. If it was truly an OTA it would only be like 300mb, but that is not the case, its massive and is actually a full install if you wipe everything before hand.
[Nexus 6P General] sjandroiddeveloper:
Does it flash all the partitions

And did you use twrp 3.0.0-0 ( I can only use 3.0.0-1 because i am on newer mhc19i)

One last thing can you tell me the contents of ota zip, I mean are there image files like there are in factory image
[Nexus 6P General] deskjet390:
They are really close to the contents of the factory image.... It's just they use a different method of flashing. Check the screen shot I took of The contents
[Nexus 6P General] hachem28:
I ended up going completely stock latest 6.0.1 image. I set up my device and signed into all my apps first then I updated through the ota beta program
[Nexus 6P General] robstunner:
Count me in to the list of people with play services drain. That and keyboard lag is all I really have.
[Nexus 6P General] nldxda:
Sorry to bring it up, BUT..

Still no nexus 6P flashable zip?!?

Anyone have a link yet? I'm intending to use it as a secondary ROM using Multirom
[Nexus 6P General] :
Weird I don't have the drain from PS. This is my 4th charge I'm on now. Cleared 5 & a 1/2 hours SOT on 3rd and 14 hours total. I took ota from mmb29v, no root just using the preview as is.. Could it be a app causing it. My sync, location, data and WiFi are all on when I use my device and when I'm not I "usually" turn it all off and put on battery saver mode.
[Nexus 6P General] robstunner:
Ah, I'm not turning the stuff off like that though. Just normal usage.
[Nexus 6P General] deskjet390:
That vendor image is clutch I believe.

What bootloader are you on now after having flashed N and restored a twrp?

---------- Post added at 03:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:51 PM ----------

The OTA is a flashable zip. Instructions have been laid out several times in this thread and its fairly easy. Just wipe EVERYTHING before hand. And make sure to flash modified boot.IMG to retain use of twrp.

As of right now Android N is not compatible with multirom. You can flash it but it will be the only ROM you can boot.
[Nexus 6P General] nldxda:
OK thanks for the info.. I'll wait till N Preview becomes compatible with multirom
[Nexus 6P General] luckdog:
Have been running this as my daily driver with only a few issues listed below. I came from the latest 6.0.1 factory image and then subscribed to google program in which I was prompted to download the beta. Don't want to screw around with a beta or frankin Rom of a beta.

weatherbug occasionally crashes.

"the voice" app won't run.

after scrolling down on the google now page on the google now launcher and then opening the app drawer, will have to do it twice for correct render.

After a few days this the only issue I have, pretty happy with it and the battery life. Notifications are much better.
[Nexus 6P General] robstunner:
I turned off Google now cards and my play services drain stopped. Bet that was it.
[Nexus 6P General] :
Mine are on and I don't have the drainage. ?
[Nexus 6P General] robstunner:
Weird. This is my first battery cycle with it though. Could be that?
[Nexus 6P General] Dracknes:
I've been in beta android N. I was testing it and wanted to go back to android m, I gave unrollme, I installed the actulizacion but now I get to never start.

It is always in the animation from the beginning.

How can i fix it?

Thanks you.
[Nexus 6P General] :
Fastboot flash factory image for whatever you want to go back to. You can download the image (just google factory images for nexus devices and you'll see it) extract what's inside and double click the flash all bat file if your on windows and it will flash everything for you but your data will all be wiped. That's what I do.

Imo anyone who doesn't have fastboot and adb and has no clue how to use them shouldn't be flashing their phone. Its very easy to learn and all info can be attained from Google. ?
[Nexus 6P General] todorcim:
Same here, play services was at 16%-ish, turned now cards off less then an hour ago and it's down to 2%

then flash the boot img

then flash supersu

[Nexus 6P General] tsuttie99:
has anyone updated from DP3 to DP4 and stayed decrypted without wiping data? Not that I would ever update without having a backup beforehand, just for sake of time/effort...
[Nexus 6P General] bouchigo:
SELinux has to be set to Permissive, not Enforcing...otherwise TiBu will not work.

Yes, I did it the easiest way, well what I think is the easiest way anyway.

1. Go into TWRP and wipe Dalvik/Art Cache, system, data (you don't have to wipe data, but it's better if you do), and Cache (since the option is there).

2. Reboot into bootloader from the TWRP menu.

a) fastboot flash the modified boot.img I posted a few posts back, or the one in the boot image thread, whatever floats your boat.

b) fastboot flash the vendor.img.

c) fastboot flash the system.img

6. Reboot and done.

Note you can get the system.img and vendor.img from the factory image download.
[Nexus 6P General] :
HOW TO UPDATE TO PREVIEW 4

1. Download the no force encrypt boot.img a page or two back

2. Download the OTA

3. Download latest SuperSU

4. Make sure you are decrypted, otherwise you will not have a fun day.

4-5. Wipe EVERYTHING, don't wipe? You'll most likely have problems just saying.

5. Flash the OTA

6. Flash the boot.img using install image in TWRP

7. Flash SuperSU

8. To get TBU to work find the modified logd file and permissive script. I think its in General.

9. Profit.
[Nexus 6P General] Upstreammiami:
I'll wait for the flashable zips
[Nexus 6P General] tsuttie99:
Any reason to use the OTA instead of manually fastbooting?

Assuming one is decrypted could we not:

fastboot flash bootloader, radio, modified boot, system, cache, vendor, twrp

leaving userdata intact

reboot system

flash goodies in TWRP (su, custom kernel)

Please correct me if I'm wrong - I am still learning the intricacies of flashing

---------- Post added at 03:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:37 PM ----------

Thanks, that's exactly what I was thinking. Appreciate you clearing that up for me.
[Nexus 6P General] justin1221:
I did. Dp3 to Dp4. I flashed the Dp4 Ota zip through TRWP followed by latest supersu. Everything went fine, still unencrypted. Only wiped cache and dalvik.
[Nexus 6P General] bouchigo:
Also, I should mention that I didn't include the radio.img in the instructions because I use an older radio where band 12 is not active (my radio always stays the same no matter what version of Android I'm on). At work when I connect to band 12 I only get about 0.33Mbps download speeds, so I use a radio that always connects to band 4 and get around 25Mbps down.

Anyway, it seems like you get the picture, and you can figure out how to get the radio flashed if you need it :good:
[Nexus 6P General] leekslk:
messed up since I had forgotten that I didn't clean up TWRP after updating to NP3 (I came straight from Dirty Unicorns). No root. Could anyone provide me with the stock recovery .img that will work with the new OTA? I downloaded the NP4 (on the Android Beta Program via the phone) and now I'm obviously stuck on the TWRP splash page. I'm assuming I could flash recovery that is compatible to the update and "update" normally?

I'm downloading the angle-npdf56n-factory image, hoping to extract the recovery.img meanwhile but man it's 1.1Gb, still takes a while to download

Also, I updated to DP3 following this http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=66949607&postcount=1423 which from what I understood shouldn't be a modified boot.img but some discussions following the post seems to suggest it is, I'm confused.

UPDATE: Tried with the recovery from NPDF56N, it was able to get past to recovery, but update from the OTA failed. I'm missing something?
[Nexus 6P General] Upstreammiami:
You didn't flash that boot.img posted a couple pages back ?
[Nexus 6P General] deani77:
Hi all,

I have DP3 install with stock recovery and root using CF auto root... Can I directly update to DP4 through OTA? Do I need to remove root first?

[Nexus 6P General] Beast84:
Quick question. I've never updated with an OTA via TWRP. My question is will the OTA install stock recovery or will it not touch recovery? And from what I've read, I'm assuming it will flash radio, bootloader & vendor, correct?

this is weird p4 was runing great ..i went into recovery flashed supersu 74 and xlement and now its just in the bootscreen screen..
