First Time Rooter (primarily for tethering), keeping Android Pay - Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have never rooted an Android Phone. I have a new 6P, and have lost the ability to tether that I previously had on my Moto X 2014. I understand that I need to enable it in the build.prop file (and to do that, I need to root). However, I am also a regular user of Android Pay., and don't want to lose it.
Having never rooted before, I am looking for the easiest to follow/most foolproof method to root so I can enable tethering without losing Android Pay. I am fairly technical, and have previously jailbroken by iphones. But, since I've never rooted Android, I'm looking for the clearest/most direct path. For the time being, I don't have requirements for other functionality (via rooting) beyond Tethering, however I will begin to explore the rest of the rooting/ROM world after it's working smoothly with Android Pay.
I would appreciate a pointer to the set of steps (as "cookbook" as possible) either on this site or elsewhere that will give the greatest chance of success to a first timer. (From what I read, may have to be a "systemless" root in orderto keep Android pay).
Any and all assists/pointers/comments are appreciated!
P.S. If it makes any difference, I'll be using a Mac for the root.

Tether works out of the box for me... I'm on Verizon unlimited and I didn't need root or anything to use it.

As of earlier today or so, Android Pay will not work while rooted at all (either system or system-less).

Tethering is native.

Just found out today that android pay no longer works with systemless root. Since android pay is important to you, I wouldn't root.

The OP wants to hotspot illegally unlimited without restriction thus they want to root...

I just wan't wifi tether. Thats all!!

At the risk of being attacked for being a total noob, I must say this.
<rant>
I have an ipad.
I have an iphone 3gs. Apple won't let me tether the iphone 3gs to my ipad, because they are evil and greedy (for no other reason).
And because they are evil and greedy, I've chosen to buy another phone (htc desire) that I was told would wifi tether because it was running the latest version of android bla bla bla. You get the picture.
I should have done my home work. Turns out, I have to root the phone? Which could brick it, and cause a nightmare of issues. Also, the wifi tether doesn't actually work properly. You have to manually assign an ip address and can only use WEP. Bah!
HTC doesn't even support syncing the phone to a MAC. You can tell they are really interested in gaining market share (not).
Am I the only person who just wants this phone to tether to an iPad and do the other normal phone things with no hassle? I'm all for advancing technology by way of bricking your expensive phones etc. But sometimes things should 'just work' *laughs at self for saying something so apple'esque*
</rant>
Just plug it up with the USB... the Desire has built in tethering capabilities.
Nope.

p.s. This isn't a Theme and App topic, so to the mod who moved it. wtf?
This is about android development for the HTC Desire.
Blame Steve Jobs for that. He does not allow it.
This is not Android issue.

I know it's not an Android issue, but android exists to offer alternatives to Steve Jobs and apples monarchy. So I was hoping somebody would figure out a way successfully create a wifi tether application that works without rooting and potentially bricking the htc desire. Maybe the android people at google could make this an out of the box feature, to cut into apple's market share.
Well, if tethering is disabled on apple devices, then it's probably not going to work (for very long at least) even with a root or a new feature.
When your phone creates a wifi network, how would the apple device know what it is? If you ensure your wifi network is a standard protocol, the mac, iPad whatever can't tell. It just connects, provided the phone does the wifi part properly.
iPhone developers created myWi, works with no issues at all. Costs $10 bucks.
I'd pay $20 bucks for a working version on the HTC Desire.
wifi tether work after rooting.. install "wifi tether", you can find it in android market..
then read this guide:
1) started wifi tether on desire
2) connect iPad (or any other device) to desire wifi network
3) set ip static on iPad (or any other device):
IP address 192.168.2.100
subnet mask 255.255.255.255
gateway 192.168.2.254
dns 192.168.2.254
4) ping with terminal emulator command :
ping 192.168.2.100
5) killed ping
6) goto safari (or any other internet browser) and surf on web .....
100% working
Yeah,
I get that you can get it working, and I appreciate your tips.
However the point remains, that as a consumer, and purchaser of a phone that is meant to compete with the iphone. I should not have to root my htc desire, and screw around with ip addresses and subnet masks, just to get this phone to do something my iphone can do.
Get it?
Your iPhone can't do it though. If it could you wouldn't be ranting in here, would you?
If you are unhappy with having to actually do something that requires very, very little effort then I suggest you stick to Apple products.
Both apple & HTC disable these options for many reasons. At least you can by pass this block in your HTC via rooting. Just follow all the great advice from these forums and you'llbe safe. And if you brick your phone it sounds like you can afford a replacement as you already have a iphone, ipad, htc, etc

I'm unhappy that HTC doesn't make the phone sync with a MAC by default. I'm also unhappy that creating a wifi from the phone is something you need to root the phone to do. I'm also unhappy that to do it on a HTC Desire requires additional steps which include ****ing around with ip address's and subnet masks.
I'm right when I say, that HTC and the Android community need to spot the market share and steal it.
Not everyone can be bothered figuring out how to download roms and root phones. If this functionality came out of the box, it would be a major selling point.

I agree that the things you stated would be sweet to have. I've rooted my Desire just to tether and to run Apps from SD. However, WiFi tethering still isn't hassle free. Sure I'll use it if I really have to, but at this point it certainly isn't something.to show off to people. Symbian phones can do it without hacking, using Joikuspot app (currently $5). Come to think of it, doesn't the Palm Pre also offer WiFi tether out of the box?
I've had the Desire for 2 weeks now, I kind of like it, but find that Android isn't really much more open than iPhone OS. On a jailbroken iPhone, I can do pretty much everything, I can on my rooted Desire, except for the obvious things as is LED flash and Flash Lite in the browser. None of which are really great.
About syncing with your Mac, comming from an Apple only set up I had the same issues. I suggest you try googling for SyncMate and you probably already know DoubleTwist for syncing media.
As last word of advice, keep your iPhone, I sure will mine.

You're unhappy about this, you're unhappy about that. You can be unhappy as much as you want but that's how it's working right now. I know that it's a hassle using Wi-Fi tether on the desire right now. But it'll get better. You can't just say "Make it so" and expect it'll be done. The guys on this forum are trying the best they can. You don't like it there are alternatives.
And as you said in the first post, you would have known all these issues if you informed yourself better before purchasing the phone, and not complain that this is somehow a problem that android or the devs here created.
You are wrong and sound stupid. Wifi tethering is not free nor is it an option so if you want it you have to root your phone. Why should wifi tethering be free? Not to mention the palm pre plus and palm pre pixie come with the app from Verizon, the sprint versions do not. The evo comes with sprint hotspots. If you don't have a hot spot app blame your carrier not android moron.

If ya can't be bothered why bother getting one in the first place. And people come here for help with rooting and ROM s that's what the whole sites about.
If you not rooting or have questions rooting related then ask on a forum for USERS not devs.
Sooo glad I never went an got a iPad poo. Even better the HP tablets out soon.

Well it doesn't have anything to do with the carrier if one's not living in the US. I can tether my phone as much as I want. In Europe we pay for data volume not for the way we use it. Sadly the US trends seem to be spreading to the EU more and more, so maybe one day our freedom of consuming mobile data will end also.

Sounds like you should have just bought an old 2nd hand crappy winmo 6.1 device and used the wifi tether on that with the sim out your iPhone.
You people are ****ing nuts. (Excluding the nice mac user who wrote some nice things about his experience)
If we could go back a few hundred years, you'd be the kind of people trying to convince yourselves and others, that the african american slaves should be happy with what they've got, and that the right to vote and full pay is pie in the sky and shouldn't be free.
If HTC and android figured out a way to make wifi tether come out of the box, do you think HTC phones sales would drop? or increase?
If HTC offered supported software to tether and sync their phones to macs, do you think their phone sales would drop? or increase?
I'm not asking for something that is impossible or expensive. It is not included out of pure laziness. It's not included because you're happy with what little you get for free from the hard working developers in this community who are working on it, because there is no alternative.
To the iphone guy who advised I keep my iphone. You're right. I will. It was stupid of me to expect HTC and android could come close to replacing it. And I imagine this will continue to be the case until HTC learns to take care of their apple users who are wishing to defect.

First Time Android Buyer

Hey guys, I'm new to the forums and I will be new to Android when my N7 ships hopefully soon.
I'm an Apple guy. I've had every iPhone and iPad. Currently rocking the 4S and iPad 3. Both on iOS 6.0 beta 2. I have also jailbroken every iPhone and iPad to customize it more, something XDA seems tailored to. I have never wanted to switch away from my iPhone because I enjoy it and honestly I haven't been impressed with many Android phone, until ICS. Now with Jelly bean 4.1, Android looks really solid, smooth, and mature. So I really want to give it a try. Again I don't want to switch phones and deal with all the carrier BS (bloatware, locked down, slow/no updates, etc) then Google unveiled the Nexus 7 for $200! So now for fairly cheap I can get a state-of-the-art Android device running 4.1, try a 7" tablet, and keep my iPhone.
So now my question is about unlocking/rooting the N7. With Android being as "open" as it is ie., being able to install non-app store apps, what's the benefits to rooting a Nexus device with no bloatware and the most up-to-date Android version? From my understanding the main reason people root their devices is to update their phone or to remove bloatware installed by the carriers.
Are there apps that you can only install if you are rooted? Are there more or less security issues with being rooted?
Rooting is awesome for many reasons, superuser rights (aka being able to play with files and commands that you don't have access to normally), but my main use for with a rooted phone is to freeze processes that I don't use, example i have handcent sms, so i usually freeze the sms client built into android.
Welcome to Android. I think you chose the right device to test the water. Not too expensive, while able to show off Android capabilities without the extra layer of crapps that manufacturers and mobile operators tend to add. I for one would be very interested in your first impressions and how you think IOS and Android compares over time.
In response to your question: some applications only work on rooted devices. Examples: Titanium backup, ROM Manager, some apps to get rid of ads within free apps, etc. But you don't need to root. I never rooted my tablet, and didn't find a reason to root my Nexus phone until very recently (for Titanium backup), but all my previous phones are rooted mostly to enable tethering, which is not disabled in the Nexus anyway.
After spending some time reading your post, the main reason to root in my opinion is to allow the installation of kernels and custom ROMs. Of course you can get some amazing apps through rooting, i.e. titanium backup and wifikill.
Making an experience tailored for you seems to be the main selling point of Android, and rooting allows you customization to the EXTREME.
I root my android devices to flash custom roms. Stock android is fantastic but teams like cyanogenmod and aokp take stock to the next level with tweaks that just add to the customization of the roms you are on. Some of the tweaks aren't mind blowing but still fun to play with. You can overclock your device to use all the processor's power, at the expense of your battery of course. You can use root only apps such as titanium backup or wifi tether. There are many more root only apps but those are the 2 off the top of my head. There are many advantages to rooting even if you are on a stock android device. just look around and do a little research see if you're interested Rooting isn't for everyone. Good luck and welcome to the forums.

I'm sure I'll write a review of the Nexus 7 after a few weeks, then maybe I'll do a Android from an iOS user post as well. Thanks for all the other advice guys, I'm sure I'll root it at some point just to try it, I'm a bit of a tinkerer.
I believe root is also necessary if you want to use otg usb storage with the stickmount app. This allows you to attach a usb/microsd card, greatly increasing storage space

I've had my N7 for a few days now and I'm really enjoying it so far. I really like the 7" size and the weight as compared to the iPad. Battery seems really good to. I have it rooted and working on getting a launcher setup that I like.
The app selection is TERRIBLE when compared to iOS, that for sure. I can't find a good twitter client or Google reader app.
From My Nexus 7
I haven't had the opportunity to compare available apps in both stores, but I keep hearing that comment. I haven't had trouble finding an app when I needed one, of course that might be because I'm not aware of everything that could be available. As an examples, I don't know what you mean by google reader. An ebook reader? News reader? Search engine? Something else? I can't help with twitter apps, I never understood what people need that for, I never tried it... Too old I guess... But since twitter is well known, there must be one among the half million apps in the play store? Perhaps its not yet compatible with Jelly Bean?

Welcome to the Android world.
Like you I have been using IOS (as well as Android.. so not totally new to Android at all..).. every iPhone up to the 4S
I think the arrival of the Nexus has brought over a few from IOS, JB has helped with that... the one thing I heard from many who complained Android wasn't for them was they found it "clunky" and not as refined as an IOS device, I think the N7 has changed and will change that perception.
As mentioned already you will find Android Apps not as good overall compared to IOS (my opinion anyway.. especially games if you are a gamer) but I think you will love that fact you have have more control of your OS (instead of waiting for the Dev team to release the lastest jailbreak using Redsnow etc..) and you can say goodbye to horrible bloatware iTunes lol
Have you tried to tether from iPhone to the Nexus yet?? Reason I ask is I had a Samsung tablet and my 4s wouldn't connect to it, something to do with being an adhoc connection (although I think there is ways around this..) I know my Galaxy Ace connects no probs and has a great speed while tethering to the Nexus.
Enjoy your Nexus
I had problems tethering my N7 to my iPad 3, until I restarted the iPad. Since then its been working great.

I understand now. You're looking for a news reader. I'm no expert on this, and only tried two of the following, but check out the links to reviews of what some consider the best news readers on android currently. Maybe one of these will work? Sometimes it takes time to find the best app, so keep looking if none of these are right.

Most effective way to turn root on and off?

Just ordered my Nexus 4 yesterday and it shipped today (love Google's "by March 29th" ship date misdirection). I'm pretty excited about finally going Nexus after a long string of skinned Samsungs.
But one thing I'm finding with my Nexus 7 is that while I prefer to be rooted so I have access to things like USB-OTG and Titanium Backup, I'd really like to be able to use apps like Wallet with my phone without being told my device isn't supported and potentially causing issues. And realistically, for day-to-day use, I don't anticipate needing root.
Is there a preferred, easier, smoother, more effective way to handle only turning on root occasionally?
I just installed Voodoo OTA RootKeeper on my 7, and found that it works, but at some point the functionality "goes away," and root returns. Not sure if it's a restart that causes it or what... or maybe that I simply have the SuperSU that NRT put on there in addition to Superuser. Either way, though, I'd like to see how to avoid that with the Nexus 4 from the start.
So what's my best bet for unlocking and rooting my Nexus 4 as soon as it arrives (so I can restore some backups) and then unrooting (or disabling root) until the next time I need it?

Droid Mini XT1030 Rooting and Unlocking Bootloader for Free

Please help me in this. i need root apps and unlocking . coz i have no money etc ..... i need to root my device and want to install cm 12 on my device ....
Um... So do I. Do the research yourself, and spend time. This is so spam-like, and the research is ridiculous.
Yup.... Why motorola is treating customer like this. We paid u n that's it. I think they should provide unlock code for Droid mini as they do for others.
Sent from my XT1030 using XDA Free mobile app
Well, a few things. First off, if you are on android 4.4.4, there is no unlock for your bootloader. Next, there is a "free" rooting method, but based on what you have said thus far, I am going to go ahead and recommend against it. Motorola absolutely *SHOULD* provide bootloader unlock codes for any user not on contract, that wants one. The reason they do not is their agreement with Verizon Wireless stating specifically that they will not give unlock codes for Verizon devices that are not Developer Editions. Motorola phones that are supported are hard to come by, especially if you are a Verizon customer.
Personally, if your Mini is in good shape, (no scratches, dings, etc) i would sell it and hunt out another Mini or a Maxx on 4.4 on Ebay. (i have now done this successfully with a Mini and a Maxx) then you can (yeah, i know you don't like this part) pay $25 to get Sunshine to unlock the bootloader. Maybe that sounds like a lot of $$ for what it is. What i can say is a Dev edition of the Maxx (i know, i had a real one) is about $680 new. The retail version of the same phone was $550 or so. Even buying the phone from Motorola, you still paid more for Bootloader Unlock. I am old enough in the Android community to remember guys like Dan Rosenburg that never asked for $$, (or if you were insistant on paying, he asked you make a donation to charity), and also rooted every other device I have owned before the Mini for free. That used to be how it worked. Now, the only people interested are professionals who are literally spending time and money to find and utilize exploits. If you are really new, you should read up on security vulnerabilities, the qfuse system, and read up on the Azimuth Security blog and see what exactly was involved in the last run of bootloader unlocks. it isn't just someone playing code monkey and making a script. it is bricking (sometimes beyond all repair) $300-600 devices in an effort to make an unlock that might yield the money invested back.
As you said, and I live at the moment, you do not have money. This, my friend, sucks. I can say that in order to invest in my android devices, i have sold other things i cared about less (rare vinyls, extra devices, etc.) The reality is, $25 is not very hard to come up with if you are determined. Principally, at first glance, i disagreed with the premise of paying for what i feel should be an inherent feature of any android device, but when Motorola themselves say nothing will change the policy, I would much rather pay the money and know i am unlocked. google #unlockthedroids and you will see my names (kitcostantino, medicbeard, etc) a time or two...believe me i have tried. Motorola sells a crapload of devices to Verizon. Unfortunately, that means that Verizon (and also ATT) have too much clout and control over the Moto devices they sell for use on their networks.
The reality is, in the forseeable future, there will be less and less opportunity to unlock a retail device that is not a developer or pure edition. Security software checks and hardware gets better and better. the Devs that get through have a harder and harder time, and the knowledge is becoming more and more specific. I actually messaged DjrBliss on Hangouts to ask if he had any plans to work on the Turbo bl and he told me it was a stressful part of his life he was glad to be past. Honestly, he was so completely nice and cool about a total stranger contacting him, it blew me away. One of the most amazing exploit creators with ZERO pretentiousness, totally chill, and glad to talk to a fan (i have used his exploits on many of my phones). With dudes that capable not wanting to invest their time and efforts, we are left with mostly security experts to find our unlocks.(who can potentially make a crapload of money with their time and skillsets). Is $25 a lot compared to what these guys could be making? nope. but in all honesty, as I am inclined to do myself, I suggest you read up on anything Motorola related with regard to Qfuse, security checks, etc. The new age of exploits is upon us. The end user is going to have to be far more intelligent and far more comfortable doing things themselves to have control over their devices. In a way, it is a good thing because users that cannot do anything without a one-click or an app will be weeded out. In another way, it is horrible for android development, because those that do not have time, nor money to invest will get lost in the shuffle if they cannot buy a dev or unlockable device. I wish you the best man.
Can you guys learn to help instead of standing here complaining? For example, learn to deal with the All-PKG QHSUSB-DLOAD, download crap, be fearless and flash onto your device....

Considering going root free

Hey All
I currently have an ageing Nexus 6p and looking at getting a Pixel 2, Im considering going root free for the first time since the Galaxy Nexus. Has anyone left root and what are your experiences and is there a way to restore app data on a stock phone without root?
Thanks in advance
I was forced into going to no root on my old GS5. HATED IT. Like seriously it was dreadful. My use of root is for just a few main reasons:
1. Ad blocking with Adaway.
2. enable tethering on legacy Unlimited plan (build.prop edit)
3. App Control (no bloat, no crapola)
My Current ROOT apps are:
1. File Explorer
2. Adaway
3. greenify (magisk)
4. Magisk
5. Custom Navbar (I like my back button on the right side because I am right handed)
I stopped flashing custom roms back in the GS3 days and have just enjoyed a few system mods ever since. for the last few months of the GS5, it was completely dreadful. I personally will never own another Samsung AT&T device.
Google now does a good job of app restoration but it does not offer the data restore like TiBu does.
Used to root every phone and tablet. Was getting a little overwhelmed with so many options... I went root free with new Nexus 6p. Haven't looked back. Using Nova launcher pro though.

Have rooted every device since the beginning of time!!!
No compromise without
1.Adaway (thumbs!!)
2.Tasker (of course!)
3.Greenify
4.EX kernel app
5.lucky patcher(yeah but not for crazy stuff I've purchased these paid apps and never will do that to a developer)
6.kernel Tasker
I don't use custom ROM because stock is enough but with a powerful kernel we r free to go with no lags
Love my 6P I could say Google's new pixel 2 xl that panda coloured one was inspired from Nexus 6p design..(just look at the back sides) they look gorgeous
I need root for the tethering. I'm on cricket wireless and the tethering doesn't work without root. Or do u guy know a way to get tethering without root?
