Which vendor.img do I need? - Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I have my nexus 6p for a few days now.. it's so good to have my nexus toy again. I use to have a nexus 5 but it died and lived with a samsung s4 for a while.
Anyway, my nexus 6p, I wanted to flash CM13 on it as 7.1 is great, but some root-apps don't work yet and CM13 has some good stuff I want.
After flashing it, it got stuck on the google logo and after googling and searching the forums, it seems like I need 6to flash the latest vendor.img... Still stuck..
So now I'm reading that I don't need the latest vendor.img, but the vendor.img coresponding with the ROM you wish to install..... which is where I'm stuck
How do I figure out which vendor.img I need to flash the latest CM13 on my nexus 6p?

When you go to settings, about phone, what does it say under security patch or build number? That should help you with finding what vendor you need. Or if you go to the thread where you downloaded cm13 sometimes they mention what vendor you should flash. Which version are you on? If latest stable release I think it's the August vendor img you need. The latest nightly may be on October's.

For CM13 you would need to flash the 6.0.1 MTC20L vendor.img

STUCK at bootloader after flash stock ROM from CM13

Hi, so i got problem about installing to stock rom of note 4 5.1.1 . So couple days ago, i start to flash my stock ROM to other ROM such eRobot,sixperience,etc. And i change to CM12 cause i want to try the pure lollipop. So it's work like a charm using the CM12 Treltexx. Then i decide back to eRobot to test something. Then next day i decide back to CM12 because i'm much better using CyanogenMod. Then i'm searching on XDA CM13 for note 4 and i found the RaymanFX CM13 Unofficial. I start download and flash it. I Saw many bug and bored with CM13 then i decide back to eRobot. I try to flash it but it stuck on bootloader. And then i try sixperience, it same again.Ok so my next step is to Reflash it with ODIN. I start flash it again. Once it say "PASS" it start loading with SAMSUNG Boot logo, but is that succesfully go to the OS ? Nope, it's just restart and restart on Samsung boot logo and i can't do anything. I i'll ready try to wide factory reset with Stock recovery but still didn't work. So i decide to reflashing to CM13 that i already backup it on TWRP. IT'S WORK. So the conclusion is ALL ROM DOESN'T WORK EXCEPT CYANOGENMOD. Please help me i'm stuck at CM13 and i want back to the Stock ROM / eRobot, etc.

Same with you, but I got this problem after I flash from CM13 and want back to eRobot / stock ROM
That is exactly what happened with me too brother, I was wanting to go back to stock based ROM from a ported ROM.
Could you try one thing, flash the Bootloader (of the stock ROM) only via Odin at first, then do a battery pull and flash the stock ROM via Odin, see if that does anything or not.

There are 3 ways to fix your problem, they are as follows;
1. Restore your EFS & Radio partition from your backed up using TWRP (if you have backed it up)
2. Go to CM 13 Discussion or CM 13 build 7 thread for more information using ADB Sideload
3. Go to your nearest Samsung Service Center and hoping they will fix it
What you have is corrupted EFS partition because, currently the highest firmware for Note 4 is 5.1.1 (Android L) and you have intentionally use 6.0.1 (Android M), and due to Samsung policy which stated, "you can't revert to your previous firmware once you have upgraded your ROM", therefore any 5.1.1 (Android L) ROM will fail to recognize your EFS. The result of this failure is, inability to load into system except Android M.
I don't know which CM 13 build that you flashed, but all CM 13 ROMs are based on 6.X.X (Android M), hence the name Unofficial Build CM 13 6.0.1 <-- this number means something not just a counter. Unfortunately, there is no cure for error that you have, only 3 ways as I have mentioned above. As fellow CM 13 user, I would suggest you to stay with CM 13 just for safety unless you know what to do if trying to use ways No. 2, the risk of using No. 2 is loosing you IMEI, which can cause your phone to be nothing but paperweight.
I use CM 13 as my daily ROM, and my phone is function smoothly asides from some bugs, but I trust the developers will resolve those with future release. Look at my replies on some CM 13 threads, I have posted some pictures as evidence how CM 13 works on my SM-N910H (Note 4 Exynos). Its lightweight, customize-able, battery friendly and no bloatware. Lots of apps to replace what you have in TW ROM or Stock, and all CM builds are able to recognize Note 4 S-Pen (Stylus).

Strange build number

Hi!
Some days ago I unlocked my 6P, installed TWRP and flashed Chroma ROM. Now I wanted to download the factory images and back them up (just to be sure). My build number is MMB29U. According to this page, it's the build number of a Nexus player and not a 6P... Is that a problem? Which factory image should I download?
I have no problems with Chroma so far...
Thank you!

Totally normal. Chroma is based on the latest AOSP branch. For each OTA, the AOSP code is more up to date but is still compatible with your 6P. OTAs and latest AOSP share the same base at time of release. MMB29Q is the February firmware for your 6P.

So everything is fine, thank you!!
I noticed mine is MMB29U too. I just wanted to check what version I had prior to updating my baseband through rapid fire. Didn't see it on the list either. My phone had system errors after flashing though, so I'm still on MMB29U.

Oneplus Two Getting error 7 on several ROMs?

Hey everyone. I recently started messing with ROMs on my Oneplus Two, and for some reason I keep getting error 7 after trying to install ROMs.
I'm doing everything the exact same for every ROM I try, but it seems a third of the time I get error 7. I was wondering if there's something specific with my phone that could be causing this?
I've asked my friend to try out some of the same ROMs on his Nexus 6 and they seem to work fine.
One ROM in particular I'm having this problem with is Resurrection Remix.
I'm fairly sure I'm installing everything correctly, so any feedback on this issue would be great.
Thanks!
You need to use hybrid recovery. Look for garak twrp hybrid 3.0.2.0 and flash within twrp. Bootloader is set on lollipop and marshmallow ROM conflicting.
Change the Twrp version or go for Grarak's Twrp that will be fine

http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-2/general/recovery-twrp-3-0-2-hybrid-supports-oos-t3362904 is this a working recovery that will flash all ROMs to the oneplus 2? Or is Grarak's the only solution as of now? Thanks
I'm in Garak version on TWRP (Orange one) and currently on CM13. Now I'm trying to clean flash AOSPA but getting Error 7, Any way to fix this?
Edit : Tried flashing Official firmware OOS 3.0.2 and then flash again AOSPA but still same error.
Edit 2 : Flashed TWRP 3.0.2.0 and all is fine now.
FIXED!
Alright cool I ended up installing the hybrid twrp and it works great now! Thanks guys.

HELP regarding Upgrade to MM STOCK ROM OR CM 13.0 !!!

Hi guys, its been a few days since I joined here. [Read : I am a noob/newbie in Android related things, and I desperately need help.]
In July (maybe, I forgot), I rooted my ZE550KL, using exactly this method from the website of www-asus-zenfone-com. :cyclops:
Now that, my android seems aged, I wanna shift/upgrade to Marshmallow/Nougat, be it Stock or Custom ROM.
Few days earlier, I unlocked my Bootloader using the Unofficial Bootloader Unlocking Method, as found on this Forum.
I also installed TWRP Recovery, and I tried to flash CM-14.1 [7.1] Nougat-Nightly through TWRP, but, unfortunately, resulted in Status 7 Error. I tried to solve the problem by removing "asserts" section in Update-Binary text file, in the build. But, again, I seemingly worsened the problem; as I got Status 6 error thereby. So, I did factory reset, and I still retain root.
Now, today as I am going through the Official thread of CM 14.1 Nougat, I saw numerous users reporting Bugs of connection issues (something like Wifi to Mobile Data switch problem), which I would like to OBVIOUSLY AVOID, as I want a stable, bug-less build. So, I am thinking to go with the last snapshot build of CM 13.0 Marshmallow.
Here comes the my question : " SHOULD I FLASH CM 13.0 MM -- OR -- STOCK ROM OF MM -- OR -- RESURRECTION REMIX MM ROM?? "
In any of the case, please guide me through the process of doing so.
And, if I have to flash CM 13.0 MM, what would I do if I encounter Status Error 7 again ? :crying:
first you have to upgrade it to marshmallow using stock rom. Then you can flash cm13 or cm14.1

While flashing CM13 if that error 7 includes "asus.verify trustzone failed..." Then its bcoz of need to update modem files (LP to MM)....
Easy way to overcome it is..... download MM modem ZIP from second post of OFFICIAL CM13 thread (120MB) and flash it using TWRP (If you are using twrp).... THEN you can flash cm13 hopefully without error 7....
If you are using stock recovery then Either u can flash twrp and use above method... OR... Download ASUS ZE550KL firmware zip file from ASUS site (1.6GB) .... Put it in SDCARD... Then boot to stock recovery and use "apply update from sdcard" option... select ZIP... Alongwith firmware Ur Modem files will also update to MM... and now u can flash twrp and then cm13...
sorry.. I know if i am lazy to post direct links...
Try it.. I will help if i can

We have both stable RR and CM13.
CM is simple and clean and less loaded.... RR is most feature rich Custom rom we have alongwith stability...
Rest depends on what type of user, u are... If u like trying differnt ROMs... Start with CM13...
If u just want to have a feature rich longtime setup, U can use RR directly without wasting time... It is based on CM, So it obviously have everything CM has.... :good:

Flashing a Nougat ROM with MultiROM from 4.4.2

Hi all,
I just found my old Nexus 7 (2012 model) in a dresser drawer and decided to bring it up to speed. Currently it is running what appears to be a stock (maybe debloated) 4.4.2 with root and multirom. Recovery is TWRP for multirom. I was using multirom to run Ubuntu just for kicks, but have lost interest in that project, plus it now appears to no longer be supported. Now what I want to do is just flash one of the nougat based roms and call it good. When I try to add nougat as a second rom I get errors relating to E: not existing, it then deletes everything that just started to install. Posts I've seen in other hardware forums point to maybe the install script being wrong for multiboot. Is there any weight to this idea?
I want to run one of the new roms as a secondary first to see how well it works before flashing it for good. Am I missing something stupid here? I haven't messed with any of this stuff since I switched to Verizon and could really use some help.
I don't really need the multiboot option, but since I've gained it I'm a little slow to want to give it back up. Would it be easier for me to just reload the bootloader, recovery, etc, take it back to stock and start over?
Atari-San said:
Is the support of Multiroms dead or do they plan a patch for nougat later when it get more mainstream? I am currently running dirty unicorn 7.0 since I just got my screen and would like to have older build for compatibility issue.
