Will kernels made for stock rom still work with this.
Pre rooted? Does twrp sticks after installing the rom? Or do we need to install twrp and root again?
Thanks dev cheers
All commands within quotes. Example: "fastboot format userdata" is ?:\fastboot format userdata
You screw this up and we will send you to "Apple". <---can remove
"fastboot format userdata" this command will delete everything, including your data.... so backup
- "fastboot flash boot_a boot.img" this command will install boot_a partition
- "fastboot flash boot_b boot.img" this command will install boot_b partition
- "fastboot erase system_a" this command will delete system_a partition....
- "fastboot erase system_b" this command will delete system_b partition...
- "fastboot flash system_b system.img".... this command will install system_b partition.... please, note we are not installing partition_a
- "fastboot erase vendor" this command deletes the vendor partition
- "fastboot erase vendor_a" this command deletes the vendor_a partition
- "fastboot erase vendor_b" this command deletes the vendor_a partition
- "fastboot flash vendor_a vendor.img" this command installs the vendor_a partition
- "fastboot flash vendor_b vendor.img" this command installs the vendor_b partition
- "fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta" please, note there is no .img extension.....this command installs the vbmeta partition
- "fastboot reboot" this command reboots the phone

At the moment TWRP isn't official at the OP has stated to install by fastboot so I would imagine that TWRP wouldn't be advisable at this stage.

Good luck, but as a general word of caution that if you're using installation method different to what the OP is saying, make sure you have backups and know how to resolve bootloop issues.
Yes it's hard currently but once official TWRP is released it will become much easier.

Awesome! First rom for OP6 on XDA ? . And most importantly no Google Music/Movies bloat. Will try it soon! Thank You for this awesome rom. And thanks for the credits .
Can u hear a Sound improvement in this rom? OTA Updates won't work anymore I think.
I just tried to flash (twice) I didn't have the "Fx" or anything like the screenshot. Had a bunch of google apps and in the about section, Wanted to make sure I am magically booting into the old stock rom?
EDIt, okay this is weird, rooted with magisk and booted to slot b. Looks just like the screenshots. now, when I fastbooted to set the slot b, and rebooted, it didn't originally! Weird
I'm curious, what is soundxTurbo optimization?

So, is there a way to flash the update to 5.0.1? I'm unlocked, rooted, and still encrypted. I want to stay encrypted. Sorry, just my own paranoia I guess. But is there a way to do it as an update without wiping the device and having to restore a backup? I have had too many backups fail in the past, and I'm kinda lazy. Plus its been a long time since I played with flashing an Android. since my old EVO 4G. LOL Thanks all. Oh yeah, if it matters, I'm on a T-Mobile Nexus 6.

The flash-all.bat script doesn't work anyway, so don't use it. Just use fastboot and flash:
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-shamu-moto-apq8084-71.05.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
(wait for reboot)
fastboot flash radio radio-shamu-d4.0-9625-02.55.04.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
(wait for reboot)
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash system system.img
Then, I like to boot directly into twrp and flash supersu.zip to reroot (I don't flash twrp on, just boot into it)
fastboot boot openrecovery-twrp-2.8.2.0-shamu.img
---------- Post added at 02:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:02 PM ----------
You can turn that into a simple bat file to use if you like. Just copy and past the following (in between dashes) into notepad and save as something like nexus-flash.bat:
--------------------------
PATH=%PATH%;"%SYSTEMROOT%\System32"
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-shamu-moto-apq8084-71.05.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
ping -n 5 127.0.0.1 >nul
fastboot flash radio radio-shamu-d4.0-9625-02.55.04.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader

fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot boot openrecovery-twrp-2.8.2.0-shamu.img
echo Press any key to exit...
pause >nul
exit
---------------------------------------
If you have named the twrp recovery something other than what it downloads as, be sure to adjust the file name in the script.
This assumes that all the files are in the same folder including the platform tools. So you would need to extract everything into the same folder.

Ok, so not to be a noob, where do I get the image files to flash?
Nexus images are all posted here - https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images
Ok, so I used the toolkit to unlock/root, I'm assuming then that to use this script you posted, I would need to download the actual ADB/Fastboot files separately?
Sorry for the stupid questions, I'm learning all over again, and this is my first Nexus device.
EDIT: So it looks like I can use the toolkit to individually flash the system image and then the radio. Will that work doing it in that order?

Does anyone know if this is correct?
What I did to upgrade without wiping, i was on stock with elementalx kernel, root and twrp.
Only flashed radio and system img.
1. Downloaded images, extracted zip of the images.
2. Reboot to bootloader
3. Fastboot commands
fastboot flash radio radio-shamu-d4.0-9625-02.55.04.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot reboot
4. Reboot to bootloader again
Run chainfire autoroot script.
5. Done

With my past phones, there was always a stock rom posted shortly after the update came out. I would just flash that over what I had already to update. Is there some reason why no one has posted any stock roms for the nexus 6?

I'm wondering the same. Usually it was out right away and I would do the same as you. Seems crazy to me that we would have to unroot update and reroot agaain.
Usually I would flash a stock rom with the update that the dev would also throw root into.

I always use the erase command, but i guess format will work too. The outcome should be the same And if you flash userdata it will erase userdata before the flash automaticaly, so no need to erase/format.

Sorry my friend for a new question but I have many doubts about the factory image flash, I'm a newbie
I would flash also the original bootloader and now my question is this: after the flash the original bootloader and after reboot-bootloader (http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6/general/guide-flash-factory-images-nexus-6shamu-t2954008 method 2) I have a locked bootloader or unlocked bootloader? If the bootloader is locked might I end up in a boot loop with the following flash (always method 2)?

First you have to unlock the bootloader and then you can flash the factory image in parts (system, boot, recovery, cache).
Fastboot command in cmd and bootloader/fastboot mode: fastboot oem unlock. Only flash the bootloader and radio if you don`t have the correct BL/radio installed, if you have there os no need to flash it again.

Extract the rom and flash the bootloader first (fastboot flash bootloader namebootloader.img) and fastboot reboot-bootloader, then the radio and also reboot and then the rest in one go. Good luck an if you have doubts/problems post it here. Plenty of helpfull members around
But after flash and reboot bootloader can I flash the other factory image parts? The original bootloader that I just flashed not is locked?

- You don`t have to erase boot and recovery
- Yes you can flash a non encryped kernel but you`ll have to factory reset after you flashed and the N6 is booting or your storage will say its 32GB.
- Rooting is easiest by placing the latest 2.8.7.1 TWRP recovery in the sdk-platform-tools folder, reboot in bootloadermode and fastboot boot namerecovery.img and boot up and flash the latest superSU.zip (Beta 2.49 afaik) or use a toolkit if want to.
Anyone else noticing that the device now shows a swap partition? I used diskinfo (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=me.kuder.diskinfo&hl=en) for this, and before updating to MOB30I, this swap partition wasn't there, it was included in my normal RAM.

Make sure the phone is in fastboot mode.
Than:
fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot erase system
fastboot flash bootloader "name of bootloader"
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash radio "name of radio"

fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash cache cache.img
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot flash userdata userdata.img
fastboot reboot
First, delete the recovery file or replace with the TWRP recovery (just rename the TWRP recovery to recovery.img and yes, to replace when copy/paste, that should do the job).
Now reboot again and boot into recovery and than wipe cache and dalvik and flash SuperSU and wipe cache and dalvik again.
Someone above asked me is this my first root? No, my first root was on a Galaxy S3 which I do not have the S3 anymore. What made me to lose the root on the S3 was I took an OTA update and it KNOX the device so I could not root.
Yes, this is my first root on Nexus. No, it is not my first root in regards to Android

I just flashed supersu 2.78 in twrp, that worked
So i tried to change the global rom of my red magic 3 to the Chinese rom, i put the Chinese rom zip in the phone and i proceed to update it manually so it can be load, but when it was installing for the first time this error appears "your device is corrupt. it cant be trusted and will not boot", as i sais this error appears since the first time i tried to install it so did not have the opportunity to activate the developer options and check usb debugging and OEM unlock, i can use the bootloader to unlock the phone by using the command "fastboot oem nubia_unlock NUBIA_NX629J" but when i try to flash it by using this command "fastboot flashing unlock" this error appears "FAILED: (remote: flashing Unlock is not allowed)" so im stuck here, what can i do to continue or to go back to factory settings, i hope some one can help me.
im sorry for my bad English

I went to this link https://forum.xda-developers.com/red-magic-3/help/stuck-fastboot-mode-t3937527
So basically you want to go into fastboot mode either using command "adb reboot bootloader" while plugging the phone into the computer or by holding down the volume down - and power button until it goes into fastboot mode.
Once you are in fastboot mode you go to "reboot to recovery mode" navigate while using the volume buttons and select by using the power button.
Now in recovery mode navigate by using volume buttons and select by using power button again. Its optional, but you can "wipe data" by wiping userdata partition and cache partition. I wiped data when I booted like this. Download the global from here https://global.redmagic.gg/blogs/news/red-magic-3-global-rom-flash-instructions I downloaded the North America version because that was the only version that worked for me. Put the zip file you downloaded into a flash drive USB. then connect the usb to the OTG cable you can buy from ebay, amazon or a nearby tech store. Then connect all that to your phone and click "Choose Update Package" and then click "Choose From OTG Device" then select the rom that you put in the usb drive and then everything should take care of itself from there.
Hope this helps!

Then connect all that to your phone and click "Choose Update Package" and then click "Choose From OTG Device" then select the rom that you put in the usb drive and then everything should take care of itself from there.
Hope this helps!

Damn that happened to me to when I tried rooting my phone. My recovery mode was corrupt too. You can try to use the instructions given on this page https://forum.xda-developers.com/red-magic-3/help/device-corrupt-trusted-boot-t3940057/page2. Extract all img and bin files from the Global ROM and place them into the folder where the "cmd-here.exe" is. Also you need "system.img" you can download that here https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/16in6Jnyi4s5aIIuQwapQ1KK1LjysSfYm, but dont download the other files they might be the Chinese files.
After you extracted the img and bin files and placed them into the folder where the cmd is placed connect your phone to the computer, open the cmd exe and run the commands
fastboot oem nubia_unlock NUBIA_NX629J
fastboot flash parameter parameter.img
fastboot reboot bootloader
fastboot oem nubia_unlock NUBIA_NX629J
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash splash splash.img
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash dsp dspso.bin
fastboot oem nubia_lock NUBIA_NX629J
fastboot reboot
After all that you should be able to go into recovery mode through fastboot mode if not then try and flash dtbo.img and vbmeta.img in the line of commands so for example "fastboot flash dtbo dtbo.img" and "fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img" looking something like this...
fastboot oem nubia_unlock NUBIA_NX629J
fastboot flash parameter parameter.img
fastboot reboot bootloader
fastboot oem nubia_unlock NUBIA_NX629J
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash splash splash.img
fastboot flash dtbo dtbo.img
fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot flash dsp dspso.bin
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot reboot
This was the line of commands I used when my recovery mode was corrupt and somehow worked
I hope this helps and let me know if it worked or if the issue is still there. Also the forum has several posts on this matter and they might have the answer you are looking for as it helped me with this issue. Good Luck!

Pretty simple to change the ROM to chinese. Download the chinese ROM, place it in an OTG or the phone's root directory. You can either do it via local update from the system.update feature in settings or use the stock recovery and install it via the OTG. Personally I would.prefer you install it via the OTG.
Please help me !!! I have same problem with my rm3

So i tried to change the global rom of my red magic 3 to the Chinese rom, i put the Chinese rom zip in the phone and i proceed to update it manually so it can be load, but when it was installing for the first time this error appears "your device is corrupt. it cant be trusted and will not boot", as i sais this error appears since the first time i tried to install it so did not have the opportunity to activate the developer options and check usb debugging and OEM unlock, i can use the bootloader to unlock the phone by using the command "fastboot oem nubia_unlock NUBIA_NX629J" but when i try to flash it by using this command "fastboot flashing unlock" this error appears "FAILED: (remote: flashing Unlock is not allowed)" so im stuck here, what can i do to continue or to go back to factory settings, i hope some one can help me.
im sorry for my bad English

What seems to be the problem are you able to go into recovery mode?
If not then flashing the appropriate img and bin files should allow you to go back to recovery mode as explained on previous posts on this thread.

Mine has the same problem and tried all the steps in this thread. Not able to go into recovery mode, can go into fastboot mode and flash everything but phone is still corrupt and can not boot. New phone now no good, OH well
re-flashed the phone using the first version of the Chinese ROM v2.12 now can use the OTG update option. just need to get a usb adapter now
I'm hoping someone can help me. I've followed the fix on earlier pages and used the files including system.img a user uploaded.
Now when booting my phone I get a device is corrupt and cannot be trusted message. I read somewhere else that the command 'Fastboot flashing unlock' may solve this but I get an error message.
Would really appreciate some help, maybe I've done something wrong but I've followed the instructions and used the files an xda user uploaded.
Many thanks.

Thanks but I managed to fix it yesterday, I had to flash the system image using 'fastboot flash -S 100M system system.img', turns out that although it reported flash as successful it wasn't actually sent correctly unless split into smaller chunks.

Oh new information. What does "-S 100M" on fastboot command do?
