Can not backup TA with BackupTA_V2 on Z3 dual with stock ROM. Will someone please help find out what is going wrong? Here are the details:

The solution was to update to Android 6.0.1
$ adb shell getprop ro.build.description
D6633-user 6.0.1 23.5.A.1.291 2769308465 release-keys
$ adb shell cat /proc/version
Linux version 3.4.0-perf-gc14c2d5 ([email protected]) (gcc version 4.9.x-google 20140827 (prerelease) (GCC) ) #1 SMP PREEMPT Tue Jun 28 11:15:51 2016

Now the backupTA_v2 workes.

Meanwhile I found out that backupTA.sh leaves two files (particularly dumpta and checkta) on the device:
Code:
echo "Cleaning up"
adb shell "rm -f /data/local/tmp/dirtycow /data/local/tmp/run-as /data/local/tmp/exploitta /sdcard/dumpta /data/local/tmp/backupTA.sh"
If you think that this information worth mentioning, please copy it to TA Backup v2 thread, cause I still can not :)
