install update - Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys. I have TWRP installed on my phone and I want the latest Android update. If I download the whole package can I then just install the system and boot files via TWRP? Or is it something more I need to do and can I just keep my data?

You can flash vendor, boot, and system images using TWRP then root again. However, bootloader and radio must be flashed either as a zip in TWRP or via fastboot. Bootloader and radio images cannot be flashed via the TWRP "image install." It is recommended that you flashed radio and bootloader through fastboot.

Okay thanks a lot. But my problem is that when I connect my USB cable the phone don't give me any options.. it just charges. That's why I want to try to start fresh again.. do you may have some tips?

You see the problem is the I am not an administrator on any of the available PC's .. but it seems to be something wrong with the phone. Because when I connect it it does not happen anything. The only issue is that I can't transfer files from the phone to the computer, not even not, like mtp.. do you understand?

If it's stock you like could always flash SuperXe . 8.1 versions are latest stock and 8.0 is built from stock source with latest security. All of which are flashable via twrp. On a side note pick yourself up cheap otg cable so you can backup your files on thumb drive. Makes it real easy if you have to completely wipe your phone. Especially if you don't have much access or having issues with computer.

I really couldn't tell you don't remember having to really install any drivers . I installed nexus toolkit though maybe that did. Check device manager if your using Windows and see if anything is coming up. I think I remember someone having to roll back driver to get his 6p to work on Windows 10. Then the obvious trying different cable and USB ports. Try putting USB debugging on in developer options. That's all I can think of sorry not much help .

So the device driver is already installed but still no connection, maybe you should turn on usb debugging, try this:
Go to Settings, Developer options and check USB debugging then connect your usb. If it doesn't work, then your ICS update may have caused the problem. You may have to restore your tablet to HC and recheck your usb connection before upgrading to iCS. Good luck!
Did you try this?
Under Settings/Storage there is a menu in the upper right corner.
Open it and then check MTP.

Good info, I wonder if the ICS update disabled this setting? That would definitely cause the usb connection problem.
I know from the GNEX that it happens sometimes if you're flashing a custom ROM so I thought it might be the same case here.
I just updated to .17 today and I'm still having the same issue he is. I haven't tried installing the driver, but my TF101 doesn't connect...
I updated from the .zip here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1546113
I guess it may be because I had the problem before the update so the simple update didn't fix it.
Is flashing the .zip from this thread like a new ROM? Will it wipe my data??

Did you try Nebucatnetzer's advice on Post #10, that may help? Click the MTP off and on a few times just to make sure then leave it on.
Yeah I did try that, and I turned on USB Debugging as well just to see if it would work. Still no luck Does anyone know if the ROM from the "[UPDATE] CWM - Stock + Root - 9.2.1.17 US Updated pi/2012" thread does a full wipe like it's a new install? Or is it just the update itself?
Quick question, what is your Bxx serial? Asus started changing code midstream in the B70 tabs, I have one of them and it's acting differently from my B50. That's one reason I favor an ota update rather than manual, the update codes may be different for different serials.
At this time I suggest a full backup then a factory reset to stock Android. You may have to go through a lengthy update process so make sure you're plugged in and fully charged first. Good luck!

Mine is a B50. The reason I manually updated is because I rooted it a long time ago.... Anyway, I'm going to do that and just let the OTA's roll through. Hopefully I get my USB connection back! Thanks for the help!

Good for you, my B50 is doing great after ICS and yours should be no different. Make sure your wifi is exclusively servicing your tab so there's no interference. Be patient, it will finish in due time. Talk to you later!
If we already have this thread. Does any one have an idea why adb can't see my TF?
Driver is installed, devices shows up under device manager and I can access the storage. But adb isn't working. USB debugging is checked.
It works with my GNEX though.
Updated to ICS, lost root and usb connection. I have the drivers installed and nothing happens. I've messed with MTP, USB Debugging and nothing works. If I boot the transformer into recovery and then connect it to my PC it can see the connection but does not have the proper drivers for it though.

Can't connect to pc with USB cable

Hi is anyone have the same problem with there S4 connecting to PC with USB cable. I have all the drivers installed and I also tried connecting to another pc and same problem.. I also tried 2 cables and no good. I can connect with cable with odin but I can't move files with windows explorer.
So you have tried this on 2 pc's correct, you have keis loaded on both? Are you sure usb debugging is enabled in the dev section?
Are we guessing what phone you have here? Is it a iPuke S4?
Noobs: if you need help, and an accurate help...use this when asking, MAKE IT LAW!

2) What Kernel
3) What recovery

I had the same issue as you op, and unfortunately I don't have a good solution. The only thing that fixed it for me was flashing a different rom. I was on Jedi and it wouldn't let me connect to PC (at first, it worked fine but a day later it stopped).
Flashing another rom (mint) fixed it for me.

Not sure if serious. Jk, thanks. But I still think I could have figured out a better solution than completely ditching a rom.
I tried everything listed, from updating drivers to trying to mount the phone through twrp. Nothing worked, even re-flashing the rom, so that gave me the idea to try another.

Did not mean it that way, first troubleshooting step should be, are you having the same issue on another rom, if 2 roms have the issue, it is a more serious problem, but as you tried, it is a issue with that rom, so that person can find answers in that rom thread.
calmness sir, it was all in good meaning.

OK, I337 rooted, unlocked, Goldeneye 7/10 ROM, 3.4.0-917495 kernel, USB debug enabled, running Net10/TMo, via *#0808# set to RNDIS+DM+MODEM, and AWS enabled via *#0011# OP process (I'm now getting 14.3M downloads off H+). wifi-Kies is Titanium frozen, as is restored crapware std email client. I had this problem once before when I left USB setting at RNDIC+DM+MODEM without completing the QPST process, but all was well after I did it right. Only other change I'm aware of is that I installed the Samsung USB drivers for the S3 so I could do the same AWS fix for the wife's i747. Anyway, the Samsung don't show in device manager now, even after reinstall the S4 drivers. Get a phone beep on plugging in, that's it. I plug her S3 in, get beep, screen says connecting as media device, windows 7 says installing drivers, via windows update, and eventually gets it done, saying "USB composite, sgh-i747, CDC/ACM, and ADB interface" (as shown), much as with S4 when it's usb driver install is successful. A puzzlement for a noob, for sure; clearly it's inside the S4, as when I try usb connect into an XP 'puter, while I get the phone beep, there's no usb recognition by the XP either.

Deleted Rom Before Install

hey Guys,
I by mistake deleted the rom on my phone, I know cannot load the rom or install a new rom. I have tried side loading via ADB, It does not show the device. I have checked in device manager and I can see LG-D802 as an "other" I have installed the drivers though.
Im really stuck and dont know what to do?
Any ideas?

If sideloading a ROM is really impossible, then you either grab an OTG cable and put your ROM on a pendrive/memory-card; OR start your phone in download mode and flash a .kdz.

I had a lot of trouble with adb and fastboot but it worked.
Thank you very much! I'm no longer stuck.
Fastboot 9/10 times should be able to fix it. Unless you flashed something wrong on that partition somehow then messed up everything else, you should always be able to factory back with it.

Expert help needed

Don't ask me how, I installed wrong Rom on my edge 7, as result, no USB connection.
So can't use Oddin to replace ROM and of course can't root.
Also, all rooting app fails, I guess because they recognize it as a different device.
A part of that the device works great, but I can't do any updates and I have a challenge...
Any ideas?

Download a suitable ROM onto the phone internal memory or onto SD card. Flash the ROM via twrp. Giving details of your phone helps too if you want tailored advice.

Nope... Didn't work because not rooted also tried original ROM.
I assume the problem Is not the Rom but the bootloader or whatever is the similar for pc operating system.
Phone is edge 7.

Hi,
Phone is Galaxy S7 Edge SM-G935F
Have no Idea what was installed...
I believe it was kernel - I attached a picture of the SFTWR details
Don't know if it was ODIN or ZIP
I can put phone in Download mode, but it is not detected - well if it was, then I could have reflash it with ODIN
And yes, USB debugging is ON
try kingroot to get root easily, then use a
twrp app to flash recovery and finally go to rwcovery, wipe everything, flash proper rom
every rom thread has an i fo about models how did you manage to flash the wrong one? if you too lazy to read you need a lot of money to repair damages ^_^
