If i flash another, or update my rom (currently running openbeta 4 on 3t), alls ok until i flash su.
Then dm-verity on boot up reappears. I hate it.......
To rid of it i have to revert stock recovery. Sideload Os 4.1.1 or openbeta. But soon as i re-root with su im back with dm-verity error on bootup.
I can get rid again by process above and then flashing twrp and restoring a backup. Just means i cannot update or use another rom.

Ive just tried the [FIX] DM-Verity Warning (no flashing required)
fastboot oem disable_dm_verity
fastboot oem enable_dm_verity :mad: doesnt work for me..

Is there a method in which it gets rid of this horrid problem once and for all. thanks in advance.

Flash the open beta, get rooted get set up etc. Flash the 4.0.2 firmware in TWRP then do the fastboot commands and then flash the open beta firmware in TWRP. Problem solved. The firmware files are found here

I did do this last night as I was greeted with the same Verity error after flashing the beta.
where did you find the method. Just a lucky guess or because you knew the fault is within the latest firmware.

Seems a little weird as the fastboot oem disable_dm_verity commands have only just come onto xda this morning. Seems weird because its working for most which would assume most are on 4.0.2 firmware. Meaning they havent update for a long time.
Updated - I have done your method and it has all worked out ok. Bonus my battery hasnt caught fire neither. Thankyou..:good:

I searched for DM Verity error on op3t and got a few different threads dating back to the first firmwares. I've read before (and encountered before ) the issue on custom ROMs and open betas. So I knew where to look for the firmwares.

First I tried just using the fastboot commands and got no where, I knew the commands worked on the 4.0.2 firmware so I just flashed it, ran the commands and flashed the latest firmwares.

Hi! Im thinkng to move from nexus 6 (not 6P) to 3T,and I have many, many, pet peeves, this would be one of them. Is this an issue with CM (now LineageOS) updates based roms? I mean, i understand that i'll have to remove it when first intalling another rom, but then if I update it, it'll trigger the warning again or not?. Thanks.

Don't think it does once u hv followed the steps above.
Not fully tested with me but if DM verity does persist it really is easy to remove. Advice is take the leap it's a great phone with the best support for any device i have ever owned.

Hi, last message mine in this thread talking about this here, don't want to be offtopic, I purchased it yesterday, came home installed the usual (twrp[i love how fast the backups are made], CM14.1) and delivered the Nexus 6 to a friend (he bought it from me).

Thanks!
