Root 5.0 Lollipop (LRX21O) - Nexus 5 General

Download CF-auto root from here Link
You can just run the bat file but that will erase all the data.
Easiest and fastest way to do it is. Get the 'CF-Auto-Root-hammerhead-hammerhead-nexus5' file from the image folder of the zip you just downloaded.
Boot your phone to fastboot mode.
Type this in your cmd- fastboot boot CF-Auto-Root-hammerhead-hammerhead-nexus5.img
You should see a Red android on your phone and bunch of text.
That's it.

Or just flash this boot img followed by supersu - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=56702681

I won't wipe your device if the bootloader is already unlocked. I did it this way last night.

Of course its working on linux

Is the cf auto root tested on 5.0 LRX210?
Saw some users complaining that the phone got slow after CF auto root.

You only have to select root-windows.bat with the phone in fastboot mode afaik to start unlocking and rooting the phone if you`re running windows.

Ok, so I installed it normally, and seems to work perfectly.
Followed this guide: http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/how-root-nexus-5-nexus-7-2013-stock-android-5-0-lollipop-chainfires-one-click-root-1474602
I dont know if some of the files are new for 5.0, or if it is the same as before.

Another confirmation that this works perfectly. (Extracted zip and ran fastboot cmd) I honestly did notice some slow down on initial boot after rooting, but after a few minutes it settled down and returned back to normal.

[SOLVED] CF ( Chainfire ) Autoroot <waiting for device> problem solved

Extract chainfire.
Go to image folder.
Copy CF-Auto-Root-titanumts-titanretuglb-xt1063.img to your fastboot directory. (you should have it already, dont you? )
open command prompt in that directory and flash:
mfastboot boot CF-Auto-Root-titanumts-titanretuglb-xt1063.img
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
if mfastboot doesnot work then try fastboot
Boom! you are done, wait till reboot !
Hit thanks if it helps
Works only on 1063?
Just check out this thread, it should work with XT1068 too:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g-2014/development/official-chainfire-auto-root-moto-g-t2940193
"Includes XT1063 and 2 variations of XT1068 versions."
I am not sure, it worked for me and I have XT1063
for XT1064, check the other thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g-2014/development/xt1064-lollipop-root-t2938051

Nexus 6, Deleted System Partition- Cannot Recover

The system partition was deleted and the phone has TWRP. The mac recognizes the ADB device and the MTP. Tried toggling the MTP, no success. Currently android file transfer fails every time due to a missing MD5 file in the android 6.0.1 zip, although all that is being attempted is a drag and drop. ADB sideload says it has completed but no files appear on the phone to flash, or in the file explorer, and so does ADB push. Tried re-downloading the rom, rebooting the phone and everything else.
Any help is appreciated.

That is what is being attempted. All data has been wiped from the phone and there is an issue getting the ROM and a new TWRP to the phone. The only available computer is a mac and Android File transfer keeps reporting a MD5 file error whenever the rom is tried to be moved over.

thats not how you flash a factory image. you boot into the bootloader, and use fastboot to flash it, via your computer. you dont download it to your phone http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6/general/guide-flash-factory-images-nexus-6shamu-t2954008

The factory image is the .TGZ file? Or one in there. I am accustomed to just flashing zip files from TWRP on a OnePlus One but this is a friends Nexus 6 and in a very odd state.

yup, its a .tgz file. download it, "unzip" it, then flash each partition separately instead of all together using fastboot. its the only way to get everything back. then you can flash twrp after, and SuperSU.

Sorry this is very simple but everything is going wrong...flashing the system.img exceeded partition limits. Do I rename files or just type them as is. Sorry many guides are contradicting and I'm very confused.

[FIXED] Can't Flash TWRP XT1096

I've been looking around for a few hours and I just can't figure this out. I unlocked my XT1096 fine and am trying to flash TWRP via fastboot. (I tried downloading the app on my phone and running it there and it says I don't have root access, but I guess flashing it from a cmd prompt should still work?)
Anyway, I've downloaded the TWRP img that seems to be correct (twrp-3.0.2-2-victara) and I'm renaming it to just "twrp.img" per the CM install instructions. I go into fastboot, confirm my device is there, and then use the "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img command and I just get the error "error: cannot load 'twrp.img'"
I've tried a couple of other twrp image files, thinking maybe that's not really the right one, but they haven't worked either, but from everywhere I've look, the one I have been trying should certainly be the correct file.
So I've got my bootloader unlocked and my phone memory is wiped and all that, from the unlocking. But I can't for the life of me get the recovery to flash. I don't know if there's another one that's not TWRP I could use? I don't think it's a step I can bypass, and I have to have it sorted to move on to getting Cyanogen and all that.
I've only ever rooted one other phone, and that was the Droid Incredible 2, but it had that whole 1-touch unlock/root program made for it, and I can barely remember how all that worked since it was like 5 years ago.
Anyway, does anyone have any ideas on how I can fix this, and get TWRP working and CM finally running?
edit: got this fixed - see last comment. Woohoo!
You could try the TWRP Manager app or Rashr to flash the IMG.
Put twrp.img in to folder have adb install
So I don't think I can use the TWRP app because when I try to use it, it says it needs root permission and that the phone isn't rooted. I've looked for rooting directions for the XT1096 running android 5.1 and can't find any really. I've seen directions for android 6.0, or the Pure edition of my phone, and I don't know if they would work. Would they work, with a difference version of android running?
As for having adb install, that's what I've been trying. I've got the twrp.img in the same folder as adb and fastboot, which is where it's supposed to be as far as I can tell from these directions:
https://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_victara
I just get the error message when I try the "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img" command.
Ha, I figured it out, and it was silly. When I renamed the "twrp.img" it appeared to me as just that. When I did a dir command for that folder, it showed as "twrp.img.img" even though I didn't see it that way in file explorer. So I deleted the ".img" that I COULD see, flashed again, it worked!
Now to get on with it!
Thanks guys for the input!

For future reference, if you type a partial filename and hit tab in Command Prompt or Terminal, it will auto fill the rest of the filename and escape any characters needed (like a space). :good:

So has anyone figured out how to root the phone?

I've tried multiple rooting programs to try to root the phone, but none of them seem to work. So my question is, has anyone figured out a working method to get root? (I've unlocked the boot loader already)

"Fastboot flashing unlock"

I have just ordered this phone. Will hopefully be able to share backup copies of ramdisk(boot) to be used with magisk to give root
Well if anyone is Interested in trying out mtk-su to get system-less, boot-less root it should work. It worked with my umidigi phone that also has mtk p70 soc. And running pie.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/amazing-temp-root-mediatek-armv8-t3922213
Here is device back up script project I had done based on that mtk-su.
https://github.com/mrmazakblu/Root-Backup-Helper
My test of using mtk-su did not work out.
But i do have backup copy of the stock boot.img , install magisk manager (currently i used V 7.3.4, after magisk update, V20 caused device trouble. Recommend stay with mahisk v19.3) and patch the boot.img from link below, then flash with "fastboot flash boot /file.name" to have full root.
here is stock boot file
https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=1899786940962604580
:::UPDATE::10-27
Successfully flashed magisk with twrp. But because the current twrp has no working touchscreen. It was done with ADB commands.

You can follow full guide found on magisk thread.
Here is general steps.
1. Install magisk manager app
2. Select install. Choose option to patch local file.
3. When complete, copy that patched_boot.img to PC
4. Fastboot flash boot patched_boot.img
I did not share the patched boot.img. you need to do this step on your own. Is better that way.

I feel maybe I was too general in the steps. (not enough detail) sorry.
If you got to the part when it is loading patched_boot
then you got past the patching part.
so, you need to find the patched_boot.img . It should be in the download folder on device
copy this to your PC.
reboot phone to bootloader mode.
then open terminal in same window as the copied patched_boot.img file, or use the full path name in the command.
In the following example, the patched_boot.img file is saved in c:\adb
Code:
adb pull /sdcard/Download/patched_boot.img c:\adb\
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash boot c:\adb\patched_boot.img
fastboot reboot

Do you mean, flashing gsi image, or editing things on stock system. I have been focussed on tarp, and my tried either case.
I can do that soon and confirm if system is freeze.
OK, first time i tried to flash GSI here it is failed.
used fastboot flash system **gsi.img**
(phh v119)
it flashed without error, but will not go past bootloader splash screen. --ODD
will try again later

Well all depends on what system files you have changed.
I was able to delete the system private-app file "blu-ignite" (an unauthorized app installed program) without freezing system.
I was on magisk 19.3. when I try to update to magisk v20 then I have issues. Freezes, wifi not turn on, ect. So try to restore stock, and Will have to use custom update Chanel with magisk to force it to use the older version.
I am also trying to see if twrp can be used tethered, to install magisk. By using "adb shell twrp sideload" command. And sideloading the magisk file.
If, when I see it works I can write the the whole process.

thank you very much I did everything according to the instructions and everything worked out for me,I tried to turn on the camera2api but so far without success,
can you understand this?

OOS stable boot image and patched magisk boot image both for 11.1.1.1.

Leaving this here as i ended up boot looping from installing custom kernel, and it being a new release i was pulling my hair trying to figure this out.
Flashed through fastboot with "fastboot flash boot_a XX.img, fastboot flash boot_b XX.img"
Magisk included as thats the one i ended up using.
Save yourself the headache if you are planning on installing a custom kernel for now, and wait till the kinks have been ironed out.
I found a workaround. Firstly go to fastboot mode and flash stable.img from here https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...os11-open-beta-2-3-and-stable-latest.4316563/ and boot into recovery. Now download TWRP and magisk and transfer to internal storage. Now flash TWRP and then download full OTA from here And put in storage https://www.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6-6t-oxygenos-11-1-1-1/
and flash it. Don't reboot once it says done. Go back and re install twrp.zip. Now reboot. Go to recovery and install magisk and clear dalvik. Now reboot and enjoy.
Thanks to
KizuYuna and Skanda Hazarika for providing stable.img and OTA respectively.​

Thats what worked for me, had to improvise as the OTA was brand new when I installed it, and bricked it with a new kernel, and had tried to fix it by flashing an old boot img but ended up complicating things even more.
You could always grab the stock 11.1.1.1 boot img and patch it in magisk manager yourself but procedure would be the same in fastboot

Just for the benefit of all (if it matters), noticed that Magisk wasn't passing the Safety Net check and was showing failed for all 3. Used this fix and all is well now (Used the Sept 13 update on the page)
previously patching with stable 11.1.1.1 and broke some major functionality (eg: wifi crash, mess up video player and codec), now try to patch with magisk version, will update later

I found a workaround. Firstly go to fastboot mode and flash stable.img from here https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...os11-open-beta-2-3-and-stable-latest.4316563/ and boot into recovery. Now download TWRP and magisk and transfer to internal storage. Now flash TWRP and then download full OTA from here And put in storage https://www.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6-6t-oxygenos-11-1-1-1/
and flash it. Don't reboot once it says done. Go back and re install twrp.zip. Now reboot. Go to recovery and install magisk and clear dalvik. Now reboot and enjoy.
Thanks to
KizuYuna and Skanda Hazarika for providing stable.img and OTA respectively.​

This one works great. Thank you.
The attached file in #13 above worked, thank you!
In case someone would like to now "How to do it" until next time this is how I did it:
How to install OOS update and root via created patch.img file in the Magisk app
1. Download the full version eg the OOS 11.x.x.x.zip file on the computer, and copy the file to the phone's internal memory as well.
2. Run the payload_dump program (https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=1899786940962605222) to extract a boot.img from the computer. You have to extract the payload.bin file from the OOS 11.x.x.x.zip file and place it in the Input folder, then run the exe-file and wait for payload to complete, then copy over the boot.img file found in the Output folder to the phone.
3. Go to Magisk app on the phone, click on the top install "Magisk", click "Select and patch a file", search for the boot.img file you created.
4. Now, Magisk will create a patched magic.img file from the boot.img file (can be called eg magic_patched-23000_xt8QR.img)
5. Copy the magisk_patched-xxxxxxx.img to your computer's "Root folder" where you have stored ADB files, etc
6. Now install the OOS 11.x.x.x zip file (should be in the mobile's Internal memory) via Settings> System> System updates and the "gear"> Local upgrade
7. When done, DO NOT reboot but go directly to Fastboot mode + connect cable to the computer
8. On the computer, type from your "Root folder":
fastboot flash boot magisk_patched-xxxxxxx.img
9. Reboot the phone - you are rooted!

Can confirm OP fastboot commands and patched boot img are working for 11.1.1.1.​​I uninstalled magisk by mistake and could regain root, quick and painless​
Can anyone help me? flashed patched boot to A and B Slot. But Magisk is N/A. Any idea?
