[Toolkit] Wug's Nexus Root Toolkit v2.1.4 [Updated 01/16/16]: Nexus 6 Thread - Nexus 6 Android Development

Unlocking, 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.
~ my goal for this project is make the entire process as smooth and simple as possible ~

Awesome. This makes it so much easier.
Thanks!

Does this use chainfires method?

Nothing but the best! Thx OP

AWESOME.
I used this on all my Nexus devices.

Any plans to include the encryption removal into this?

Yes, although NRT's procedure is different, the technical aspect of the root is identical. I compiled a build specific root_kernel with the modification necessary to enable SuperSU flashing. Chainfire is currently testing a new method that does not rely on the kernel modification (until google inevitably patches it) - if that zygote method is deemed stable, then NRT will adopt the new SuperSU zip at that time and no longer use "root kernels".
NRT's advanced utilities has a simple button dedicated to restoring the stock kernel - so that will be an easy way to get back stock kernel if and when Chainfire announces that his new method is the standard.

One last question.... I downloaded this for the nexus 5. Assuming I just need to update the program?

I can do that. The way I will have to implement it ultimately depends on weather or not Chainfire's new SuperSU method works or not. Either way I will have to write some scripts on my end to auto-make those those non-forced-encryption boot.imgs per each build - however, I will have to also include the root_kernel modification if the new SuperSU method isn't adopted. I will wait for now to see what happens.
But yeah, should be possible and something I wouldn't mind coding.

Correct. Once you hit update (or let it auto-update on start if you have that enabled), you should see Nexus 6 as an available device in the pull down.

Would definitely love this!
Was going to do it tonight, but I'll just wait for it in your toolkit.
Love all your work. Thanks!

Ooh. So this gets root on the N6 right now? Mine will be arriving today, hopefully in the next hour or so, so I'm just trying to get everything prepared ahead of time, so I can get my bootloader unlocked, get root, and install TWRP.

Yeah, just purged cache on WugFresh.com, it should be listed now. N6 supported.

Coolio thanks!
PS-the fastspeedtest mirror at least shows the old support list, dunno about the other mirrors.

Any reason to think it won't work on AT&T phones?
