Original Thread for SuperSU : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1538053 Root Nexus 5 Lollipop 5.0.1

Hey!
Thanks a lot. Really helped solve my problem!

No problem

This doesn't belong in Development.

Actually i am not sure where should this be.. I'd request modders to please move it to the correct board!

Thanks man!

Since you've probably lost your custom recovery upgrading to 5.0.1, you can grab the TWRP images for Nexus 5 here: http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/hammerhead
I believe you need to use 2.8.1.0 since 2.8.2.0 either doesn't work or is causing problems for many users.

CF-Auto-root is still OK. I just tried

Isn't CF-Auto root adding files from the 5.0 release over the 5.0.1 ? Isn't it safer to wait for a 5.0.1 autoroot?

How did you update from a rooted (with CF-Auto Root) 5.0 to 5.0.1 you just received the OTA and installed it without any problems ?
I like to know because i am on 5.0 stock just rooted with CF_Auto root.

So no more need for CF-Auto?
Just flashing SuperSU zip with TWRP is enough?

I flashed a Custom Rom Using TWRP which doesn't have any root permission...

Yes... Just Flashing with TWRP Is Enough!

Guys, i installed the 5.0.1 update by fastboot flashing system, boot and radio. I lost my custom recovery tho (CWR). I now tried to install TWRP, but after flashing the recovery image, the recovery still hasnt changed. Could i just flash CRW or should i use TWRP for this version?

This. I flash with it here since 4.4.4 and it did everything just fine. Not only it is an app to automatically root, but it gives very good hints, and provides lots of others features like installing Apks, getting a adb prompt, and so much more. Greatest third party Android app I have tried. Highly recommended, didn't even had to wait they update it for 5.0.1, as soon I got the 5.0.1 OTA notification, Nexus Root Toolkit was already ready for it.

This is lollipop security, custom recover wouldn't stick, after each reboot it will replaced with stock one, of course there is a way to make it sticky just search the forum.

That's always been enough. You can use Cf's auto root if you don't want to use a custom recovery.

[ROM][5.1.1][10.7.A.0.228][C5503][LB]Nordic Combined+Pre-rooted+Recovery

Using PRFCreator, I've just created a flashable zip for the latest stock ROM 5.1.1 (C5503) 10.7.A.0.222 & 10.7.A.0.222 Nordic Combined.
The flashable zip will install the followings:
1. C5503 Generic NCB firmware
2. Pre-rooted using SuperSU 2.49 Beta
3. XZDualRecovery 2.8.23
I've tested it on my ZR originally running 5.02 rooted stock LB ROM. I used TWRP 2.8.7.0 to flash it and I just wiped Dalvik and cache so data partition is untouched.
If you're also using Xposed, boot your phone for the first time, then reboot your phone into TWRP again to flash the official Xposed framework (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3034811, sdk22). For unknown reason, I need to uninstall and re-install the Xposed Installer to run it successfully.
Download:
10.7.A.0.222 https://mega.nz/#!BV5giBqQ!12WjY76wt9CayhsLV12ucSHnTxaBOuO7ufVbAz88xCc
10.7.A.0.228 https://mega.nz/#!Fcgj1YAZ!6S9-h2nzUOmm0yCfcGY_2tlTobcEZPwo-N9BUYkwMdc
** this firmware comes with Asian keyboard/IME which is not found in the earlier Russian version **

Hey please can you tell me how to fix the system mount issue? Or if you could post a flashable zip of the fixed revovery or something.....

If you upgrade from 5.02 using this flashable zip, then you don't need to wipe data so your save games can be retained.

Will nuts built a new recovery with this fix?

Hi already have. Look at his site under dual recovery and beta.

I have stock 5.1.1 (10.7.A.0.222) installed, and the phone is in its original condition after a factory reset, with no root, no unlocked bootloader, etc. What should I do if I want to have root? So far I could only find complicated instructions involving downgrading to older android, etc. Any help would be appreciated.

Is it possible to flash this with flashtool?
I am unable to install it through TWRP, it finishes installing very quickly without any error, but apparently does nothing.

What's your version of TWRP? I'm using the latest version of XZDualRecovery and TWRP should be 2.8.7.0.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2261606

TWRP is from XZDualRecovery 2.8.21.
Its version is 2.8.6.0.
Will try to find a newer TWRP for Xperia ZR.
Actually, the recovery was installed with the whole system image, and I am unable to update it to 2.8.7.0 yet.

I finally managed to update to 5.1.1 with this package by updating the kernel image with TWRP.
Still TWRP version 2.8.6.0 was sufficient.

I try Your zip and not working for my ZR. In CWM i got error with UUIDs ("uuid link to system partition does not exist"). Then I create zip by myself with PRFCreator and all is working fine.

I have no idea why the zip file doesn't work for you guys. But I'm glad you work it out yourself.

I'm on stock 4.4.4, UB, with xzdualrecovery 2.7.... Is it safe to flash this 5.1.1 rom? Or do I need to update the recovery first? Or should I upgrade first to 5.0, then this? Thanks for the help!

Is this Nougat stock rom for the samsung J700T? And how do I root it?

I have a J700T with twrp and root. Is there a nougat ROM that I can download and flash via twrp?
I would rather not go back to stock, flash nougat, and then re-root.

I'm writing this up in case anyone else needs help.
1) Couldn't get the 7.1.1 download to work from sammobile. Ended up downloading the firmware from another source and flashing through Odin. Took a couple of minutes to reboot after the flash.
2) Wanted to get TWRP and Root back on the phone and followed these instructions.

I would recommend using the magisk modified Xposed installer from the magisk stable threads, and install Xposed via magisk. The other xposed doesn't work as well, it says some modules are installed and running, but actually not doing anything. Just a heads up
