I installed dp3 by flashing the system.img modified boot.img and then the vendor.img from twrp 3.0.0.1
However after installation when I opened twrp it shows option to decrypt.
When I enter the pattern it continuously shows decrypting data but nothing happens
I have Mac OS my windows laptop is down .
How can I get twrp to work
Thank in advance

Do you mean twrp 3.0.2.0 if not that might be why

It's 3.0.1.0. Modified for encryption problem..
Also can I root my phone without using PC?

It is the 3.0.2-0 that has the encryption fix. Root on Nexus is achieve normally without a PC, until you choose to use the Chainfire Auto Root tool.
Just flash the latest SuperSU flashable through recovery.

Yes, do that. Flash latest TWRP using Flashify or FlashFire, but that may require root permissions, as far as I remember.
And then, once you have entered TWRP, you can flash the SuperSU zip: https://download.chainfire.eu/964/SuperSU/BETA-SuperSU-v2.74-2-20160519174328.zip

Then you must get your hands on a PC, and flash TWRP manually through fastboot. Hopefully the latest version will successfully decrypt your device.
That's the only option I am left with.. thanx..

i downloaded the newest twrp 3.0.2.0 however twrp is still unable to decrypt the data and unable to mount sdcard/ storage
therefore i am unable to root or flash anything.
further i tried side-loading super su .. it installed however after installing there is not root access
further, i am able to use my sd card from the phone but not from twrp
cant think of a way ahead.. i have flashed modified boot also.. is there any other link to modified boot that i can try flashing??
edit: the issue is twrp doesnot work with android n dp3.
thanx will see what to do

You did right when you flashed the modified boot.img, but decryption requires complete data wipe too. Alone, the boot.img wouldn't work. It just disables encryption on the boot.
Do all of this while your phone is connected in bootloader mode.
Pick up and flash the boot.img corresponding to your build number, which I guess is NPD35K. (Link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6p/general/stock-modified-boot-img-regular-root-t3306684)
Then, stay there in the bootloader mode and enter the 'fastboot format userdata' command. Please be sure to backup first, since the format command will wipe off the complete internal storage and all the apps.

OK, I see that this subject has not been properly addressed in this forum and there are a lot of users who still use tool kits,etc. for this. That's fine but you're missing out on how to more effectively manage your device. I'm writing this off the top of my head, and on my n9 which is not so easy, so I may modify it in the future.
The first thing you want to do is learn how to use fastboot. Fastboot allows you to flash image, .img, files on your device. If you've never done that start here, http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-9/general/guide-how-to-unlock-bootloader-flash-t3035153
Rooting is as simple as flashing a custom recovery on your device and then booting into that recovery and flashing Chainfires supersu.
So how do you flash a custom recovery? Well I strongly recommend twrp. Download the latest from here, https://dl.twrp.me/flounder/ I always find it easier to rename the file you download to simply recovery. Make sure you maintain the .img file extension. Download this onto your pc and remember what folder you downloaded it to.
Then download the supersu.zip file to your device. Download from here, https://download.chainfire.eu/696/SuperSU
Now you're ready to get started. Boot your device into the bootloader and connect it to your pc.
On your computer open the folder where you downloaded the twrp image. On an open area in that folder shift, right click on your mouse. You should see a pop up and a place to "open a command window here" In that command window type, fastboot devices. If you see your device's serial number you're good to go to flash the twrp image file.
OK, the Nexus 9 is not as easy to root as other Nexus devices. So start by typing, fastboot boot recovery.img. (Remember I told you to rename the twrp image file to recovery, if you didn't do that use the full name of the twrp file you downloaded for recovery.img) Once you boot into twrp go to install and find the supersu.zip you downloaded onto your device. Install it.
Then from twrp, boot back into the bootloader.
Once booted into the bootloader open a command window in the same folder as you have the twrp image downloaded. Then type fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
You're now rooted and have twrp installed.
Having major problems trying to do this on Marshmallow, lol.
This no longer works as described on 6.0. I can get you rooted but I can't get twrp to work properly. It doesn't decrypt the device. But you'll need a usb stick.
To the usb stick copy flar2's elemental x kernel, http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-9/orig-development/kernel-elementalx-n9-0-02-alpha-t2931657. Also copy supersu, http://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/supersu/2014-09-02-supersu-v2-05-t2868133
Boot into twrp:
fastboot boot twrp.img. Use twrp 2.8.7.0 and the full name of the image file
When you boot into twrp hit cancel. It'll boot into twrp but won't decrypt your device. In twrp go to mount and mount your usb stick. Then from twrp flash the elemental x kernel. Then flash supersu.

Thanks, that worked.
I went and installed Busybox, not sure if I needed to?
I really want to get this thing decrypted now but am happy to wait for a Marshmallow solution rather than go back. I suppose I could flash a ROM without forced encryption from the flash drive too? As long as I do a full wipe?
I only got my N9 a week ago and haven't had time to play with it so all this encryption stuff is new to me.
---------- Post added at 09:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:04 PM ----------
I am rooted but can;t copy hosts file over, system is read-only, is this an encryption thing or has something gone wrong please?
---------- Post added at 09:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:08 PM ----------
One more question..
If I was to factory reset and then flash the kernel and supersu would I get an unencrypted device? Or if I hit the "decrypt data" button in the "wipe" menu in TWRP? I am scared to press it, lol.
Excuse me but this only adds confusion in case of 6.0. So far the most comprehensive guide I found here is this one (see also an answer there).
That solution involves wiping data, so you need your stuff backed up somewhere. In my case I restored playstore apps from google account and just reinstalled the rest from apks.
I answered my own questions here http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-9/help/decrypt-marshmallow-question-t3222592. Thanks again for the help jd1639.

For N (and MM in some cases), you need systemless support - which the current version of SuperSU has. (Magisk 12.0 has it as well.)
Where Magisk (vice SuperSU) has advantages is being able to hide that you're rooted (Android/Samsung Pay, Visa Checkout, SafetyNet, etc.) - which is, in fact, why I am evaluating Magisk.
So far, I have seen next to no disadvantages to N - even on "moldy" SoCs (such as the TI OMAP in my Galaxy Nexus - the oldest hardware I've heard of - let alone seen - running N on a daily basis; I run N as a daily driver). I even prefer N to MM, let alone anything older, on the selfsame GNex (which utterly flies in the face of "common wisdom"; it makes me wonder, in fact, if "common wisdom" is a coverup for "fear of change", since said "common wisdom" predates Android by several years).

There are two methods to root Android N .
Method 1
Flash the Supersu.zip from custom recovery.
RC-SuperSU-v2.69-20160313161431.zip
Method 2
This method will work without custom recovery , just download it and go the fastboot and follow the steps .
CF-Auto-Root-bullhead-bullhead-nexus5x-NPC56P.zip
Just download the file
Extract it
reboot your Nexus 5X into bootloader
Now open the root-windows(If you are using windows otherwise select the file which is for your operating system)
Now the command window will open and ask you to enter any key to continue
Then press any key from your keyboard and it will automatically done the remaining process and your phone will reboot
If you device got bootloop then poweroff the device once and power on manually
Thats it you will see the SuperSu icon .
If you like hit the thanks ......

Hello pospower,
I hope you are new to the community, so first of all, welcome to the Nexus 6P section.
I advise you to read the sticky threads here at the section. First in the list would be: http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6p/general/questions-section-t3214020
Over to your query now. Bootloader has no relation to rooting, except one, that it should be unlocked. Unlocking the bootloader will enable you to flash TWRP recovery, which in turn would be used to flash SuperSU v2.71 flash-able zip.
For detailed instructions, please refer to section #1, #2, and #6 in the following thread: [GUIDE] Unlock/Root/Flash for Nexus 6P
I hope this helps. Best regards.

Download the latest TWRP Recovery. Please note: if you're on MHC19I or above you must use TWRP 3.0.0-1 or above, otherwise TWRP won't be able to decrypt. Also, if you want to use TWRP with the Android N Developer Preview you must use TWRP 3.0.0-1 or above, and you must also flash the modified boot.img found here.

TWRP is having issues with encrypted filesystems right now. You can either flash TWRP v3.0.0 or decrypt your 6P.
The decryption process should be carried out just after you flash the modified boot.img.
To decrypt, you will need to connect your device in bootloader mode and enter the following command:
Code:
fastboot format userdata
(Please note that this will wipe your complete internal storage).
OK got twrp working 3.0.0
Now it's asking for a password to get to decrypted files.
Any suggestions?

Try switching to a different version of TWRP, and see if any one of them works for you.
v3.0.0-1, v3.0.1-0, or v3.0.2-0.
Rooting this device is actually quite a simple and easy process. Before you begin, it is recommended that you at least try to understand what each part of the process will do. Although this guide will elongate each step in order to show all of the details, the method used can be broken up into 3 main steps: Unlocking the Bootloader, Installing a Custom Recovery and finally Rooting.
1. Download the ADB For Windows from here :-
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B0MKgCbUM0itNVB1elljU2NPR0k/view
2. TWRP: https://mega.nz/#!v9MmGQ5C!i5VroRopCVz2_Uoc6Mi2U6N4oDa0HK1SxCrkDrc4mwQ
3. SuperSu: https://mega.nz/#!eh13yLiC!3tkx_RkLg-D8T6mi35zDUB8AYEPLliBsL8yO1dmZbI8
Steps:
1.Backup Data
2.Unlock boot loader
3.Flash Recovery
4.Flash SuperSU

Simply flash the full ROM.zip manually in recovery, typically 1.4GB.
That means not installing the incremental mini zips. And not installing from the settings menu.
It's up to you whether you want to wipe data or cache.

Dm verity zip is not needed when you flash SuperSu.
*winces* Ooh, all the files on file hosts? Why not just link to the legit sites?
Very easy to download the required files. Very simple step-by-step video guide. A+
Thanks for putting this together you made my night!
Thanks, I have unlocked bootloader, Installed TWRP, and Super Su.
one question though, when after setting my account going for nandroid backup there I found SYSTEM as well SYSTEM IMAGE.
what is difference between them, What thing should I backup.
Also there is showing your system is Unmounted, so when I should have to mount it.
Thanks to all Once again.
Hello guys, thanks for the guide!
I was wondering if anyone has faced the same problem as me - while trying to root the Oneplus 3T I constantly get a bootloop after flashing SuperSU. The latest TWRP (3.0.4.0) is installed without any problems in fastboot, the system is mounted as r/w, and I don't see any problems during flashing SuperSU package...
I've tried it before and after OOS 4.0.2, I've tried old and new, stable and beta versions of SuperSU, but either way the phone is stuck on bootscreen after flashing.
P. S. If I flash the official ROM after that - it boots up instantly without any errors... And with no root :/
I'm having the same problem

So nice to know I'm not alone!
Did you find a way to root your phone?
Try this SuperSU
I heard only SuperSU SR3 works
Just tried both versions (2.79 and the SR3 beta) - unfortunately, the same bootloop happens.

Power off and boot instead of selecting reboot from twrp

Oh, finally - thank you so much!
Followed the guide on reddit page, and got the Magisk root, with Android Pay compatibility!
I wonder why it was so hard to find
Hello guys i need an urgent help yesterday i unlocked bootloader on my g5 plus which was running Android 8.1 everything was ok i installed twrp latest version it got installed but when i reeboted to system the twrp gets erased idk how whenever i try to boot into recovery it shows no command sign and then after pressing power button it boots into stock recovery ! Guys can anyone mention me a solution thread or just explain me what to do ! Thank you
Reinstall it, and then boot right into recovery. If I remember, there is a pop up when you go to close twrp and boot to system to keep twrp, or some such nag.
As far as i remember there were 2 files. dm-verity and forced encryption. I never needed them but if you stay on stock you will have to flash those so that twrp doesn't get replaced by stock recovery everytime you reboot. Check the how to root forum you should find more information there about this.
Or you can just root it and twrp won't erase with stock recover.

hmmm, that's strange. I've never flashed that and never lost twrp on any of the phones I've unlocked. Is that new with unlocking Oreo?

I didn't either, as you wrote if you boot into TWRP before going to system it should stick or also if you flash magisk before booting the OS.
But there are some devices/ROMs that need the no verity flag to be disabled so flashing this file might help if TWRP won't stick (even when DM verity looks for a tampered system partition in the first case). There are also some terminal commands to do that but I forgot them at the moment.
I mainly used the zip to keep my /data partition decrypted after reformating it. When flashing Nougat magisk did the job for me but when I upgraded to Oreo /data was reencrypted again after flashing magisk and booting into system.
The above zip prevents /data from being encrypted again and may make sure that TWRP sticks.
ahhh, ok I see. Thanks for the explanation.
