I have rooted my Nexus 6P and installed the ElementalX kernel. That's the only change I made. No custom ROM whatsoever. Also it is a systemless root.
Could you please point me to the right source where I can learn about updating my phone while it is rooted? Already searched the forum but couldn't find what I am looking for.
Thanks in advance!

Step 10.

Hey everyone, just got a Nexus 6P today and it came with the latest image. Before I scour the forums, is there a link to a specific root for this firmware. Or do earlier methods still work?
Thanks
Well their are 2 ways now.
1. Traditional root which is what you know
2. Systemless root, the 'new' way
I've used both. The systemless root basically decompiles whatever kernel you have, patches it with root, then recompiles all in twrp. I think. Their both good.
When I was on stock ROM I used systemless root.
But I recently flashes resurrection remix and that uses traditional root.

That's def want I wanted to hear. Much thanks. I'm familiar with the systemless root since I'm pretty sure it's done like that with the Nexus 6 as well, which I had not too long ago. Probably will go with the stock and systemless.
Thanks again

Apologies if this has been answered elsewhere, I've had a look but couldn't find anything. But does anyone have a guide to updating from OOS 2.2.0 to the new 3.0 rom without losing root or two?
I currently have boefla kernel installed too so I'm not a complete novice, but I'm a bit unsure on how to update to the new rom and retain root and TWRP. I'm a mac user so ideally I'd like to find a pre rooted version of the rom that can be flashed on the device.
Bootloader is all unlocked too.
Again apologies if this has been answered elsewhere, if you could point me in the direction then I can close this thread
Thanks in advance

On the oneplus net site (user comments) you should fine the TWRP MM or something flash this modified TWRP and then flash the OS 3.0 beta. You'll find a working Supersu too with the twrp

OK so there's a specific twrp for MM and a rooted zip for 3.0 along with the SU binaries?

CM based ROMs, such as crDroid, are already rooted. But root has to be activated from the developer options.
Alternatively, you can flash a SuperSU zip.

Thank you so much, ive figured it out now. Thanks!
Does that apply to LineageOS as well? Can´t even put pics on SD atm using 7.1.2.
Any idea?
Thanks!
I saw a couple guides for rooting Android 6.x on my Vzw Ss7, but I want to update to Nougat and root, install a custom recovery, and install a debloated ROM. I'm used to the Nexus and Pixel devices, which don't seem to have near as much caution tape surrounding the process. Anyone know a good guide?

Well, there will be no custom recovery. You can check the root guide for nougat in this section. The only roms are 2 for MM and 1 hybrid for N in the vzw. Each of them have guides in their threads to get you through as well. Xposed and root are possible, but i would suggest tree nougat hybrid without root for the best experience and battery on nougat.

The hybrid rom and manual debloat option.
I really want to root and install a stock ROM on this and I was also wondering if there were one click root tools like there are for Nexus devices.

In answer to the name of the post, yes there is lineage os for the exynos variant but it is in alpha stage right now, calls aren't working and it might be a while till you get a daily driver.
As for one click root, I've never heard or come across any. Current methods of root include, using Odin to flash chainfires cf-autoroot, or flash twrp and install supersu or magisk.

Can you help direct me to some instructions? I've come from Nexus devices mostly and I remember them being very easy to root so I just don't wanna mess this up.
