Temporarily removed dl link due to new update coming in September.
-I do my absolute best to code this without bugs and I try it out before I release it. I spent quite a while going through making sure the toolkit works. If you find any bugs, glitches, typos, button not working, script not working, etc. or simply want me to implement a feature into the toolkit, PLEASE LET ME KNOW ^^ (This was over 570 lines of code in Visual Studio 2013 you know, and I am a human being ). While this is what I do on my side, as with most tools, you use EZToolkit at your own discretion.

Only if you want to. I decided to make a toolkit because:
1. I was bored.
2. I thought it would be cool.

Thanks!

Are you on the rooting process? Are you trying to boot into recovery to flash supersu?
Sent from my One Xl using Tapatalk

Yes...so I realized I have to unlock the boot loader first...time spent on HTC website... Then it wasn't showing up in adb so I have to figure out the drivers or adb issues first

I don't see why you would have any problems.

Perhaps someone here can help me. I did an RUU on my phone after I had already rooted and installed a custom ROM because I was having some problems with music playback. The RUU fixed the problem and I thought I should try to unlock the bootloader again to begin the rooting process but when I did my phone got stuck in a bootloop. I was able to install a recovery after unlocking but I was not able to flash a boot.img to my phone again. Any help would be great. Thanks!

@nadav Generally speaking most HTC phones fall into the 'phone not listed category'
Root without htcdev unlock? I think not.

so i take it the at&t version is out to.
Will it be possible to root it without overwriting the existing recovery? When I get mine, all I will want is root access on the stock build after I've run the HTC unlock. Otherwise you run into problems getting OTA updates as released.
I had a similar issue with my HTC One X, but thankfully was able to get the original recovery to push back onto it after installing the SuperSU app with the custom recovery. Would rather not have to wait until there are updates out there before I can do the same thing with the M8!

As i said in other posts, I don't think that the bezel is touch sensitive... It would be a complete nonsense (but great at the same time) since the buttons are on the display itself

FAQ

3. Is this official release? -
Yes!
4. Do I need to have unlocked bootloader to install this?
- No you dont have to. Thank you fedevd for correcting me.

- Yes, read this thread: [url]http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-4/general/root-android-lollipop-t2940547[/url]
7. Can I install this without wiping all my data?

@isus<3 no need to unlock the bootloader, it's a official and signed firmwre so can be installed with or without unlocked bootloader.. (Remember that some users can be unexperimented and could try to unlock it and mess it up, who knows)
can we flash custom recovery (f.e. twrp) without any problems?

You will have to do that via your PC since when you flash factory image it puts back stock recovery.
I flashed it! Works flawlessly, I'm trying to find root for it now.

Are u kidding us, man?
But even with moto x (2014) option I can't access TWRP recovery after flashing it. It seems that I'm missing smth, but I get only "boot up failed" string in fastboot menu when trying to load recovery. Any ideas?
[UPD] Does anybody try to install TWRP with WinDroid Toolkit at 60.12 bootloader?
Just tried to unlock AT&T Moto X 2014. "your device does not qualify for bootloader unlocking" it seems like a no go from Motorola website to unlock bootloader.

WinDroid Universal Android Toolkit v2.5 Now Out!
I'm happy to announce that the WinDroid Universal Android Toolkit v2.5 update is now out! As always, let me know what you think and report any bugs you encounter! :highfive:
You can download it here.
Do you have to have your NP connected directly to the pc for this? or can I ADB through the network?
just picked up a NP player today. installed the drivers and such as prompted when i started the toolkit. But just says "unauthor" at the bottom. says nothing is connected. Does the NP need to be plugged into a TV at the same time? I dont have a laptop so i have to plug it into my PC on 1 side of the room in order to use the toolkit.
I use the same toolkit and yes it has to be connected to a TV as you have to put the np in recovery mode. I modify them so you can get every channel available.
I just bought two of these awesome players had all sorts of issues with this toolkit even working and the other main toolkit nothing would unlock my bootloader..
Downloaded WUGfresh NEXUS toolkit and that didnt work either so i ran manual mode from wugfresh then did the unlock code myself low and behold it worked lol
we have had a nexus player for almost a year now and are currently working on a friend's to unlock the BL and root to put Kodi on for them. now... my question..
has anyone successfully unlocked the bootloader AFTER taking the 6.0 OTA? we thought "hey to make it easier on ourselves and them we will just leave lean back instead of going with lollirock, take the update and put kodi on for them" we were a little over zealous because now our desktop (linux)terminal won't recognize the device and we have tried mannnny cables we know to work.
any advice or anything helps.. you know how it is to get the gears turning ? hoping that we didn't update and now there's no way to do it. I have a feeling ..

You can unlock it via adb/fastboot, type the following in the command shell. Fastboot oem unlock. You may have to type it twice but beware as it will erase everything on the nexus player.

Go ahead bro, there always be a first time........you are in the right place to have support.

goood luck
First thing needed: Google USB drivers, if you install them, they'll install automaticly after device plug in.
Second: unlocked bootloader, i don't remember what command is for that (i've done it a lot time ago) but on google site it is. Of course, you need to do it by fastboot.
Third: recovery, TWRP from their site and flash by fastboot.
Fourth: rom flash by recovery, it'll be easy.
Little instructions for you
finally I am all good with Nougat on my Nexus 5
Hey all, I am kid from 80s who have seen computers and internet Growing Up Right in Front of Me. I was feeling the same exictement that I had while installing windows 98
I spend almost 5 hours in one single day and I was a kind of shock after having a Nougat on my Nexus.
One thing here is for sure that restart may resolve problem in windows on 1st try but on the phone have to be patience and still rebooting the device may solve many problems...
Thanks a lot to seniors and other developers for their job....
It can't be more short

Yes, that's it and we are done with the update if one knows the steps than I think it will take only 1 hour max to get latest updates on Android. Thanks for keeping it short...
thankx
