Per HugoMoreira current SuperSU does not work. The binary will most likely need to be updated to support the 6.0 release.



For now it kinda looks the same, but maybe I'm just missing something.

So it's time for my yearly Android cleanup.

From Kitkat to M preview 3 without reseting data, my nexus 5 deserve a clean plate :D

is there already a root flashable zip compatible with the official 6.0 update? I was thinking it would be good to go back to stock but I don't want to lose titanium backup and adblock!

Had the same issue, turns out i forgot to do a factory reset after all the steps.

Basically:
★After everything finished, select "Recovery" using the volume buttons.

★When a small Android appears, press Power Button + Volume UP.

★Select "Wipe data/factory data reset"

    This is how to ROOT : (Tried same for two devices. it works perfect for me)

    1) use flash-all.bat file (do the thing).
    (you are gonna lose your files etc.)

    2) wait till it reboots itself to the welcome screen. (may take 5 or 20 minutes)
    3) power off and go to the fastboot screen again (power + volume down)
    4) flash StephanMc_Kernel (it's basicly the rootable version of stock kernel. no tweaks, no custom stuff.)
    (command: fastboot flash boot boot.img )
    link to the zip(extract it): http://www.mediafire.com/download/b69gq3wnanmmd4g/StephanMc_Kernel-hammerhead-20150904.zip

    5)flash twrp
    (command: fastboot flash recovery twrp.img )
    link: https://dl.twrp.me/hammerhead

    6) use volume down button in fastboot to browse, and use power button to switch to the recovery.

    7)push beta supersu to your phone (usb cable is enough tho.)
    supersu link: https://download.chainfire.eu/740/SuperSU/BETA-SuperSU-v2.49.zip

    8) flash supersu (Install button on twrp)

    9) profit

    Just an FYI... The factory images are now live!

    It should be noted that there is some permission related issues if you remove the -w flag from the flashall.bat file. For now you are better off running the upgrade without modification.

    Rooting Notes:

    Getting some errors when trying to flash it from a stock 5.1.1 LMY48M

    Anyone can assist? :c

    Guys, my personal belief regarding this issue is that it's RAM related (on your PC, not the Nexus 5). Since Lollipop 5.0, the system.img size increased significantly. I've seen this issue rear its ugly head on nearly every fastboot flash I've had since 5.0 hit a year ago. The easiest solution is to unpack all the .img files from image-hammerhead-mra58k.zip flash manually instead of using flashall.bat:
    fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-hammerhead-hhz12k.img
    fastboot reboot-bootloader
    fastboot flash radio radio-hammerhead-m8974a-2.0.50.2.27.img
    fastboot reboot-bootloader
    fastboot erase cache
    fastboot erase userdata
    fastboot erase system
    fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
    fastboot flash boot boot.img
    fastboot -S 512M flash system system.img
    fastboot flash userdata userdata.img
    fastboot reboot-bootloader
    go into stock recovery, perform factory reset, reboot

    In regards to updating the fastboot.exe utility, here's how I do it, download the sdk zip file from here:
    https://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html#top
    go to "other download options" then download the .zip file. Unpack the .zip file, then run SDK Manager.exe and uncheck ALL packages except for "platform-tools". Go into the platform-tools folder, and there will be the latest fastboot.exe.

    Hopefully this helps
