stock non rooted, then flash the factory image. besides that, there wont be any unrooted stock roms. most real roms are made with aosp, not stock. since thete is no usable code to build stock. so, they take stock roms, take them apart, and add supersu to it and other stuff. they dont actually "build" stock roms.

Because I need to install as multiboot I can only install a zip file in recovery... I can only use fastboot for the primary rom which I don't want to touch...
To be honest I don't care if the rom is stock or aosp as long as it's not rooted... That's all that matters.

well, there are many aosp roms, the majority of them are not rooted until you flash the supersu file as well. terminus is my favorite one. one question, why do you need a non rooted rom? if its for a business or for an app, you will appear rooted until you flash the factory image.

My satellite provider has an app but I need to be unrooted in order to run it. I thought the best way would be to install a second rom that is unrooted and use it for this. Thank you for taking an interest to help BTW.
So you are telling me even if I install this terminus rom and I don't root I won't be able to use the app?

since you are on multiboot, i honestly dont know. i do know that many have to unroot to use certain apps, so the get rid if root. but the apps usually think they are still rooted, until they flash the factory image. anyways, good luck!
You could try using a root cloak.
Problem already resolved.

I recently purchase a used unlocked rooted Nexus One and am trying to learn about all the N1 terminology and update processes. The below is my "About phone" info.
Android version: 2.2
Baseband version: 32.36.00.28U_4.06.00.12_7
Kernel version: 2.6.34-cyanogenmod, root(at)pershoot-ubuntu#56
Build number: Kang-o-rama 0.9b2 SP1 (FRF83)
Can you guys please tell me what all this means? I know it's Froyo FRF83 but:
Am I running stock recovery?
Am I running stock release?
What version of Cyanogen mod am I running?
I'd like to update to either FRF85B or FRF91 but I replaced the SD card that came with the phone and stupidly formatted it so I'm not sure if I still need anything from that card. I don't really need a backup since I haven't put too much on the phone since I got it. Thanks in advance for any assistance!
You are not running CM. you're runnning the kang o rama rom, which uses the CM kernel. You most likely do not have a stock recovery if you've got that rom on your phone. If you want to get back to stock, follow this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=614850
Thanks for the reply! So if I go back to stock, I can flash to, say FRF85B, root and then install custom ROM?

Is your end goal to install custom roms? Because that is a very roundabout way fo doing it. By the sounds of it you can already install whatever rom you want. Including the stock rom made for unlocked phones.

I guess so. I haven't had a chance to look into which custom ROM is the best for this phone. It seems like a lot of instructions mention stock recovery/release. I just want to be able to follow along with the instructions If I can already do that, then I'll look into it! Thanks
Pretty much find a guide that tells you how to do it form start to finish. But skip past the unlock, root, and recovery steps. You probably only need to know how to use the custom recovery to flash new roms. Learn about nandroid backups, and how to flash, and you should be good.
Thanks for the advice guys! I just flashed to CM6. Seemed relatively painless. Hope I don't run into any issues!
I am unable to install Cyanogenmod. I have TWRP that was installed with AutoRec. I tried flashing the Stable 10.2 CM version,and when I flashed it said "Failed", which put me into a security error boot loop. Then I tried a nightly, and it said "Success" and when I tried to start it up, it put me into another boot loop. I have the stock Kernel, and I am rooted. Is something like goo manager or rom manager better to use for this? Or what is the safest way to install a custom ROM

If you want CM11 with the KK baseband(24A), use the version z3pp3lin pointed you to, otherwise most other AOSP based roms have already been upgraded to work with the KK baseband, use one of those. Just double check the notes on the rom to make sure it's KK/24A based.
Do I have to do all of those steps? You said there is a like for cyanogenmod for 24a. I don't see one though

All those steps are required to manually install a recovery on KK, that was pre-autorec, if you've already installed TWRP, you can skip to step 11.

You have the 24A KK baseband on your phone, you can only use roms that work with that baseband. If you specifically want CM11, you need to use the rom linked, otherwise any other 24A KK based rom will work. Check the notes for any rom you want to install to see what baseband it works with.

Why not just use a AOSP or CM based ROM that works with the 24A baseband... CM is good, but hardly the "best" ROM out there, if there is such a thing... Try AICP 6.0, it is extremely stable and the VS980 version is excellent and very feature packed.

Not too freak you out more, but no, there is no guarantee. That's why every ROM has the disclaimer in the OP. By flashing you're taking responsibility that you understand the risks involved. If you flash cm and damage your phone somehow, it's on you. So it's either stay with rooted stock where you know nothing will happen, or flashing and taking the risk. Your choice...

No custom roms :crying: this locked bootloader means no cwm, no cm, no pa, no cwm, nothing custom no ifs ands or buts. The only roms available are stock based and imho it's more worth it to try to start learning how to decompile and modify system apks because that's the only real way to get the aosp feel back on this phone. Obviously you're gonna want to deodex your stock rom before you can really do anything major.
Nope. Only TW based roms and there aren't even any of those for this phone! Quite disappointing
You can get TWRP, so there's that.

TWRP for bootlocked phones is called Safestrap. (See link)
It runs in the boot image right after daemons start!
Did deodexing work on your i537? Anything I need to know?

Use this thread if you're on NE3 or earlier, I can confirm it works as long as you follow the instructions which are easy and straightforward. (It says to use CWM but I promise it works just fine from SafeStrap).
If you are on NH3 use this thread, I can't confirm personally that it works but it sounds simple and has entirely positive feedback.
So yes deodexing works.
So I have been looking around in the Development forum and there are so many ROM options out there now. I have been on CM 12 nightlies for so long now I am out of the loop on stock builds and all. I am looking to just go back to a completely stock build (with root). Can anyone point me in the right direction for the files I need?
I have a Google Store bought N6 and I am currently on Verizons network.
Thanks!
EDIT: I would also like to be on the latest (and greatest) build.

sure.. https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images?hl=en
the only way back to stock isnt by flashing roms via twrp, its by flashing a factory image. on top of that, this is a basic element that you HAVE TO learn before ever rooting your phone.

Okay... I guess that makes sense, and to obtain root I would simply flash the SuperSU.zip from Recovery after I have completed the factory image restore? Do I need to re-flash Recovery?

after, you would need to flash twrp recovery, then flash supersu from twrp. so yes.
but, if you really dont have to, dont relock your bootloader

Right, no re-lock, so, I have, 1) Flash Factory Image 2) Flash TWRP 3) Flash SuperSU = Back to Stock (Rooted). Got it, thanks again.
What SImms said
We have a lot of people in panic state over trying to relock their bootloader, and to further emphasize what Simms said, DO NOT ATTEMPT TO RELOCK BOOTLOADER, there are specific procedures to do that but locking it just isn't necessary
Alright, I'm in need of some help, and I'm not sure if this is the right place to put this thread, so if it';s in the wrong place, I'm sorry for taking up space in the wrong section.
My issue is with my Nexus 6, the Verizon variant; I had a custom kernal, running 6.0, and was rooted. I wanted to upgrade to 6.0.1, and downloaded the newer version of the ElementalX kernal, the one I was using, as well as the necessary SuperSU files. I downloaded the new Android version, installed it, and before it went intoi the OS, I flashed the kernal and SuperSU upgrade, and now my phone either won't boot, or is taking the longest time for a phone to boot on the planet.
I need to download a 6.0.1 ROM that I can flash with TWRP. Any links or advice anyone could offer would be grately appreciated, because right now, I'm drawing a massive blank.
Many thanks!
Do you need to backup any data?
Could you not just flash a stock "like" rom such as this one by Danvdh http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6/development/rom-5-1lightromstock-lmy47e-03-19-2015-t3059493 as it has already been rooted.
I have been running it for a while, very solid and stable rom.
Which SuperSU did you install?
Reflash the rom youre using and then flash Super su (asuming its not a pre-rooted rom) BEFORE flashing elemental x. Other kernels work the other way around
Question?
Are you trying to run systemless root wit EX? If so did you click on yes when TWRP asked you to root your rom?
That would would cause the rom not to boot.

Don't flash anything else till you boot at least once.

I decided to download and flash a custom CM13 build, but it's a bit finicky, kinda to be expected with an early release, though. I'm using that ROM, for now. I'd still prefer getting something from the CM team, something that's supported and I can download upgrades to.

I'm not great with this stuff. Sorry4Noobishness. I'm not sure what systemeless rooting is.. Originally, I just flashed SuperSU and EX onto the stock ROM I was using. Worked fine. When I decided to upgrade, I downloaded the 6.0.1 ROM, installed it, but didn't boot into the OS. I booted into TWRP, and flashed the new EX and SuperSU stuff. The phone didn't boot after that. It was just stuck on the Google boot animation of all the interacting circles.
I decided to use a custom ROM, a CM13 ROM, but it isn't supported, which is why I'm not looking for a CM13 ROM I can use, because, well, I'd kinda like to be able to upgrade when an upgrade comes out.
Flashing a nightly build from their site did the same thing. I flashed the ROM, then gapps, then SuperSU, and it gets stuck on the boot animation. I let it sit for about half an hour, then restored the custom build I was using. I'm not really sure what to do to get a REAL CM13 build on this thing.

Sounds to me like you dont have the correct bootloader. Which bootloader are you currently using? try flashing the newest bootloader and radio then flash your rom again. It should then boot up fingers crossed.

Wouldn't let me use the Play Store. Nothing would install, and it's kinda pointless to have an internet-capable device if it can't connect to what's supposed to provide me with that internet connectivity (downloading Chrome, for example). Had to flash stock gapps, but it all seems to be working now.
