Root with out Computer

[pitbullmommy45245]

I just got my nexus 6 and it came straight from Google (bought off Craigslist). I'm wanting to root it but I don't have a computer. Is there a way to root without a computer? I'm running marshmallow 6.0 build MRA58K. I see there's a lot of development for this phone. Is development going to continue pretty strong since the new nexus 6 came out??

You need an other device PC or Mac or Linux.

OK I wasn't sure if there was a one click method

There isn't a one click method for rooting Marshmallow, only for bricking it (temporarily).

Also how do you want to install any custom roms without a computer? At least you need to flash TWRP then you can download roms on your phone, but you need a computer to flash TWRP.

Furthermore, what if the new rom flashed its own recovery then bootloops? With a computer you can re-flash TWRP in a minute and fix this. Without a computer...

I don't want to criticize anybody's hobby, but this can be very expensive...

kings root might work. if it works on marshmallow now. i cant think of any other one click root that might work. but marshmallow requires a custom kernel for root to work, so it might not work at all http://www.kingroot.net/
