Flash the system image from a factory image. If your kernel is modified, flash the boot IMG as well.
Use wugs toolkit.

So just to get this straight and I don't screw up my phone. I find the stock rom same version as my chroma which is LMY48B. I extract it and using fastboot I install system.img and boot.img? My phone is unencrypted right now... Will it get encrypted?
And when I need root again I must just install it along with Franco Kernel I'm using?
I appreciate the help...

I installed it on my laptop but even though my phone is rooted I don't see an option to unroot... Maybe because I didn't use regular rom and used chroma instead?

First, why are you trying to unroot?
You would download a factory image form the Google developer page. Extract twice, and grab the system image from there. Yes, match the version your phone is currently on.

Have you considered multi ROM? You could have your rooted normal set up and a non rooted as well.
Can't you just go into supersu settings and unroot? That way you can stay on chroma

Depends on how deeply his situation is looking for root files. The unroot feature of SuperSU doesn't remove everything.

How about the encryption? Chroma is unencrypted. If the second rom is encrypted what happens there?
I'm also trying to find a stock rom that is not pre-rooted to install from recovery. Can you show me the latest I can get?

My friend I installed multirom and used an older Chroma rom that wasn't pre-rooted. it worked like a charm.... Now I can just go to this rom and use all my apps that require the phone to be unrooted.... Again thanks for the idea....
Can I just ask what version of chroma wasn't pre rooted? I want to do the same if possible. Thanks

well, 2 months ago it was being called older.. anyways, the far majority of roms do not have root. you need to flash the supersu file shen flashing the roms, for root. but, to flash a rom, yoh need an unlocked bootloader and twrp recovery. most apps that check for root will still think that you have root though.

i must have fell asleep during this development lol
far as i have ever seen, its rare for a rom to not be rooted, however, more frequently devs have had it off by default, and its a treasure hunt to find where to turn it on.
i do always flash the su zip, to avoid this tedious hunting though.

yup I found that most are pre-rooted, though found cleancore that works great. I've just installed multirom and that booted into it then tested a couple of apps that are blocked on root (Banking app and Sky Go), and happy days they work great.
Its annoying and rather wasteful having have a second rom just to run a couple of apps but at least now I can use the apps on my device if I want to. Thanks
Typical apps block hacking (root) so the work around instead of unrooting is to go deeper with the hacks/mods

It showed up this morning for me on T-Mobile, Folsom, CA. but I didn't go for it yet.
No problems for me so far. Seems about the same as 5.0
Thanks!
Seems like only yesterday I re-rooted after going to 5.0.
My OTA failed. I have put stock recovery back but I am still rooted and have installed the custom LTE radios. Would one of the two be causing the problem?
Well, With 0 knowledge in the world of compiling and recompiling - can someone assist and build an flashable update to those who have closed bootloader but has TWRP recovery? (I've closed it in the past)..

One question why would you install TWRP and reclose the bootloader? That doesn't make scense.

Yes. Both will cause it to fail.
Flash the factory image manually (leave out the "-w" to keep your data), then re-root / flash radio if desired.

In the past I used to install custom roms. I've stopped but the TWRP was still on there.. and the locked bootloader is a mistake that iv'e made :/
well, got any clue what can I do without opening the bootloader once again?
you could root your phone and reopen the bootloader with an app called boot unlocker.
Long story short, I finally got the job done with Wugfresh Nexus Root Toolkit, what a breeze.
Any changelogs?
Is the upgrade worth?
Better than 5.0

If you unlocked the boot loader, rooted and have TWRP custom recovery, you just need to :
1. Download rom and gapps to your phone. Links should be found in the OP of the ROM's thread. If you wish Google to restore your apps be sure you have selected the backup-auto restore in settings.
2. Do unencryption now if you wish.
3. Boot into TWRP recovery and wipe a couple times.
4. From TWRP, install the rom and gapps.
5. Reboot system, sign into your Google account and let it download and restore your apps.
6. Reboot system once more & you should be gtg.

Should be in the Chroma OP or close thereby as to whether you need the boot loader.
I would think for sure a wipe or two. Boot loader, maybe. Radio, at your discretion.

I checked. Instructions and prerequisites are in the OP of the Chroma thread.
I also updated my Nexus 6 with 5.0.1, unlock and root, to 5.1 without losing data. I just had to re-root it afterwards.
I used Wugfresh Nexus root toolkit.
In short I used "Flash stock + unroot", in which I selected "Enable no-wipe" and "force-flash".
After this I rerooted the device from within NRT.
Worked like a charm!

Well can you be my guinea pig and flash chroma without doing everything else? worst thing that could happen is it not boot into the rom and wrong radio will just make your phone not pickking up signel intil you flashed radio. but chroma dont say anything about flashing bootloader so i dont think its needed.
BTW ims still on rooted stock 5.0.1.

Alright, so I had M Preview 1 and used the rooting procedure from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6/general/root-nexus-6-android-m-dev-preview-t3123285 and it worked flawlessly with no booting errors or anything.
Now that I've upgraded to Preview 2 on the day it was released I can't get it to root. I've tried the methods in that post, I've tried some other methods that I've picked up over the years of doing this kind of stuff and no matter what I end up in a boot loop or a boot validation error that just shuts the phone down. So I just end up re-flashing the system and boot partitions to get it back up again while I look for more solutions.
I've looked all over XDA and some other forums thinking that maybe I need a different kernel, or Super SU package but I can't find anything. If someone can explain to me or at least reply with a link to a thread that will help me out I'd really appreciate it.
Thanks in advance!

flash any m based custom kernel, i generally use despair or elementalx, and then flash the latest supersu, when you boot, youll have root. the latest supersu is version 2.49 btw. and if you want to yse the kernel in that thread, elite kernel, grab the latest m version, not the one in that thread, its old.

Updated last night so it should be the absolute latest version. So I'll flash twrp in fastboot, then boot into twrp and flash the kernel first, and then supersu and I should be good to go.
The Elemental Installation is freaking awesome! I've never installed it before. That's so cool how it brings up it's own interface for the install to customize your setup.
And the phone just booted up after flashing both the kernel and supersu.
The boot animation (spinning colored dots) is glitching out though. Can't tell if it's a "setting up" type of thing or not. It's optimizing app 1 of 1 right now.

It's been in a bootloop for like 5 minutes. It would get the the Android is Starting screen and loan for about 30-40 seconds, then reboot.
Then it would hit the validation screen and reboot.
Then it would boot back to Android is Starting, freeze, and reboot lol
It is very erratic, all of this has been going on without any interference from me. Just letting it sit there trying to work through it's issues.
Then all of a sudden as I was typing "adb reboot-bootloader" the thing boots right into my existing lockscreen haha. So I guess I'll just do my best to not have to reboot this thing in case it wants to have a seizure like that again lol.

Hi,
I have looked at the ROMs in Android Development sub forum but can only find heavily modified ROMs based of MRA58R. I want it stock but pre rooted and no forced encryption.
I have Nexus 6.

If you can't find one, why not take the alternative simple route of installing stock (full wipe), then flash modified no-encrypt boot and then supersu?
I flashed doitright's boot.img, booted into Android and then installed his supersu.apk. Incredibly simple. Even though he clearly states that it's a work in progress it has worked flawlessly for me for the past couple of weeks. Unencrypted and rooted.

Using this as 'stock rooted' and works also with franco's kernel r34. Dev @Danvdh has updated this Rom with the latest security updates.

Thanks but his rom had modifications I could do without. I like to have 100% stock rom but rooted and no encryption.

Thanks. Doing it my self is always an alternative. I just need to find the time to do it

Although we do provide the technical details to DIY, we also provide prebuilt binaries built directly from our provided source. See first LINE of the second post.

This rom has that all. The gapps that were removed are in the play store.

Yes, that's is what I was thinking about when I would do it myself I'm lazy but seing that it is not that many more steps to have a stock rooted phone. Thanks!

First it doesn't have stock kernel,
Latest stable hC kernel

Then it has some addons not giving me any value exept a possible source of errors. The missing Google Apps are only a annoyance as I use most of them.

I understand where you are looking for. Only doubt if you will find that.

At least not yet
I have been looking for the same thing. Seems like before Marshmallow I could always count on seeing a clean, stock, rooted and decrypted ROM I could flash. Just being lazy I know, but oh well.

decrypted.. you do realize that its encrypted/decrypted via kernel, not rom right? and even if it is decrypted, its you yourself that has to go through the action of reformatting all your data before you are actually decrypted.

I am fine with that. Everything I need is backed up somewhere else. Honestly decryption isnt that big of a deal, its just what I got used to flashing.

I think he only means a ROM that's not enforcing encryption

Yeah a lot of people know this means a rom that packs a boot.img that has ramdisk with the fstab.shamu with the data partition mount options changed from forceencrypt to encryptable, but still can be misleading to the less tech savvy readers who might misunderstand it, and believe that encrypting is in the rom part of the flashable zip file.
This is a step in the right direction

It is quite easy just to flash stock images and then flash modified boot.img, twrp recovery and SuperSu. Sure, It is few more click and commands, but it's really that simple...done in a minute...
And for Kernel I am using this one. It is stock one (no encryption) with some added features like vibration control.
