Check out this post, problem is with TWRP not seeing the files. Need to install this updated version of TWRP.
Hello,
I have a Nexus 7 2013 wifi (flo) with 6.0.1 Stock.
When i try to Root + install TWRP, it doesn't work.
I tried to install TWRP manually with fastboot, and i have a strange behavior. In fact, i install with success TWRP but just after the flash when i'm in the recovery, into TWRP, i have no existing Internal Storage (it's empty with 0Mb). And when i try to reboot it says me that i haven't any OS installed.
So, i dont know what's happening but if i can't install it manually, i'm pretty sure it's normal that NRT can't.
Do you have any idea on what's happening?
[EDIT]
I find a workaround on XDA in this post : http://xdaforums.com/nexus-7-2013/nexus-7-2013-qa/mount-recovery-t3064562
By the way, the current version of TWRP for flo (2.8.7) doesn't take care of the recent hardware change (eMMC). A commit has been implement into the TWRP Multirom, so it's working.
It's not a NRT issue but a TWRP. The issue has been already reported into the TWRP github.

running toolkit v2.1.0
i am coming from nexus 5 and want to root my new fully updated MMB29K nexus 5X. NRT wants to update root but times out.
I went to the link on the update screen and did manually update to root file BETA-SuperSU-v2.64,
what type of root it this? all the systemless root jazz has me lost some what. . I also notices that encryption in on default in settings on my N5X, does this effect anything while rooting and installing TWRP?
or am I over thinking this and happy new years!

Good evening.
I used the Nexus Root Toolkit a couple of years ago to root/unlock my 2012 Nexus 7, and now I'm trying to re lock and return to stock. I haven't messed around with ROMs in a couple of years so I'm out of practice.
I'm on a new computer, so I don't have to uninstall the drivers. Driver install was successful, but my N7 won't connect to my computer.
USB Debug is on, but the only thing that happens when I plug it in is that it starts charging. I'm using Windows 10 on my laptop, and 4.2.2 on the N7.

First, use a USB 2.0 Port. The blue ones are USB 3.0, which mostly do not work properly for flashing. At least for me.
Next, you can download the factory image for your device directly at Google https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images and do what's described there to flash your stock image.

I have the factory image downloaded. I've used a USB 2.0 port. No change.
The problem is that the N7 is not popping up as a device on my computer. I am getting the "ADB device was not found" message when I try to update.
I remember having similar issues when first trying to flash my N6 on W10. I've installed Windows10-Media Feature Pack-KB3010081-x64.msu following https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/mtp-driver-windows-10.337070/ Although I never had a W10 N Version installed.
can't even unlock bootloader? huh?
@WugFresh or anyone else. i just received my insurance replacement n6 yesterday after the old one's screen got shattered. driver setup completed successfully and all that, but when i go to click on unlock bootloader i get the attached pop-up telling me that it's encrypted. so of course i tried to decrypt it real fast and at the end when it says that it's rebooting the device, it's not rebooting anything. the device stays on the bootloader home screen.
Suggestions?! thanks in advance!

Thanks for a great tool! Used it for the first time yesterday to root my 2012 nexus 7. Now running MM.
One thing I can't figure out though, is it possible to boot directly to TWRP without connecting the device to a PC? I only get 'Android recovery' when booting into recovery mode.
Thanks.

Use an app like Quick boot or during power up there is a button combo like Power+Volume Up (I think). And that will take you to recovery mode (default, twrp, etc.)
Unfortunately neither of the suggestions worked for me. The only way I can get to twrp is via the toolkit with the nexus connected via USB ?
Something is wrong. I've been using quickboot 2012 WiFi 7 for a long time, without issue. Edit. Just noticed you're on mm. Wonder if that's the problem.

1805Unlocking, rooting, relocking and unrooting simplified! (and much more!)
VERSION 2.1.4 - This program will automatically bring together all the files you need to unlock and root your device in a few clicks, or flash it back to stock and re-lock it. You can also use this program to backup/restore all your important data, flash zips, set file permissions, push and pull files, install apps, generate logcats/bugreports, and much more! With the included file association options, you can perform tasks like flashing zips, installing apps, restoring android backup files, and flashing/booting img files with just a double click! The program includes a full featured interface for automating tasks in TWRP, enhanced restore features, an in-built auto-updater/notification system, ‘any build’ mode, advanced restore features,’NRT- Live Log’ for viewing the adb/fastboot cmds that are run in the background, quick tools utilities, and tools for taking screenshots/screen-recordings. All the latest official Android builds and Nexus devices are supported. The program intelligently and selectively downloads the files it needs for your device and makes sure you are using the latest files available. The program can even auto-detect your device and build. This release brings full Marshmallow root support plus all automated features by utilizing a new system that no longer requires modified boot.imgs. Check out the updated changelog for a more comprehensive breakdown of the feature set and changes in this release.

{{ WugFresh }}36Hey, great work! Have you ever thought about making a mac or linux port? I'd really love to help you make one!
Email me: stevepink8@gmail.com29For those of you who have 1.5.5 already, the 1.6.0 update package is officially live now. I am updating my site right now with new information and the full version.
I was able to do everything I set out to do in this release. Support for the Nexus 10, 4, new 3G Nexus 7. 4.2.0 support, and what I spent the most time on - a fully web backed system, that autograbs the latest files the toolkit needs, and populates everything from text files I maintain on the web, making keeping the toolkit updated with the latest files nearly instantaneous.
Lots more info coming. Enjoy ^_^
p.s. thank you all for your patience.

Coding went pretty smooth this round. v1.8.3 is up. (Yes, it supports 4.4.3)
Enjoy ^_^
{{ WugFresh }}19Ok, so my coding is going really well today. I really think I will be done tonight. Yay!
A word to the wise though; The program now uses Goo.im as the backend for everything because my host just couldn't handle it. They were nice enough to allocate me a large quantity of direct downloads (more than enough) through the program, but there is a daily cap; 30 per day per unique IP. That said, triggering a check for update, will register as a download because it downloads a small text file. So I recommend against checking for updates repeatedly today because your IP will get blocked and when the update is actually out later tonight you won't be able to use the updater, and will have to download the full version.
That said, the full version is going to be SIGNIFICANTLY smaller. The toolkit will now be entirely backed by an automated file list on the web. This means, the toolkit will only grab the files it needs. So if you only have a Gnex, it won't come with all the files for every single nexus device, but rather.. it will download them when you select that in the toolkit (if it doesn't detect them already in the local directory).
The device and build lists will now be populated from a text file that the toolkit can grab from the web. That means, in the future when a new build comes out, I can make it so the toolkit self updates within 20 minutes with everything it needs, and that build will be listed. Same goes for autoupdating CWM, TWRP, and SuperSU. The toolkit will therefore will always be up to date with the latest files. And I wont have to go crazy hard coding all of this like I have been.
Ok.. Back to coding for me. Thank you all for your patience. The slight delays in this release will ultimately speed up all future updates forever. ^_^
