Looking for a Recognized Contributor to take ownership of my FAQ thread - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Greetings Nexus 6 RCs!
I'm looking for a RC to take ownership and maintain the FAQ thread here:
Nexus 6 FAQ thread
My FSM duties keep me very busy and maintaining this thread doesn't quite fit into my schedule anymore. A lot of things have changed with Marshmallow and the thread needs updating. Please, only Recognized Contributors are to be considered. Contact me via PM or post here if you're interested.
Thank you,

maybe you can become a recognized contributor? I'm sure that @The_Merovingian would support you on that.
I would do it, really would. but time is a huge hassle with me lately as well.

Not working:

Sense doesn't work and development has stopped.
And the other....does it exist yet?? Thought it was "soon"?
Maybe I'm wrong.
Just saying....not to discourage, but most ports of other manufacturer proprietary firmwares don't ever work out. Not without major unsolved bugs.
But yes, there's a discussion thread for this already.....another popped up recently, and was closed. And this one states [ROM] in the title...implying there's a rom available. Which there can't be if its still unusable, and kernel source needs to be linked.
I don't see why this was started when there's an established thread for this already??? This one.......

Actually, you did post a link to a broken ROM. That's a no no. Could land newer confused members in trouble. English isn't everyone's first language here....
Hope your posted ROM boots? Or it shouldn't be linked on XDA.
Yes. @KJ you all right but I made new thread because I was spamming on discussion. That's why
The rom is wip (work in progress).
About the kernel, in this zip exist the stock kernel but it has more problems

You can't post broken rom links. You could PM the link to people that agree to try it. Not post it in public. Then very new members will be saying their phone doesn't work after flashing your ROM. Get it?
And "spamming" a discussion thread, with on topic chat is perfectly fine. That's why its there. Discussion.
Also....not many others were posting in it anyway. Mostly just the same guys as here.
Moderators can decide. They know best. ?
And still....good luck! Hope you get it going.

@KJ is right, when you've made some serious progress and something to share you can start a thread for your ROM, but for now this is perfectly suited for the [discussion thread](http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/general/discussion-lg-g2-rom-nexus-5-t2540277).

D955: TWRP v2.8.5.0 beta

Hello all
Here is attached latest version of twrp recovery for gflex.
As I have an d955 hardware with 4.4.2 rooted, this work great on it.
Please DON'T use it if You don't know what this is and if You don't know how to unbrick recovery partition.
Thx to twrp guys for this great stuff.
Untar
adb push recovery.img /sdcard/recovery.img
adb shell
su
dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/recovery
adb reboot recovery
Have a fun.
Has the .img been "bumped" or is this ready to flash. Reason I ask is I can add a meta-inf folder with updater-script so we can flash to update to the latest twrp

Regarding rom, You have PM.

Use Nexus Root Toolkit, http://www.wugfresh.com/forums/sub/NRT/

2 & 3 both, to your option of obtaining root. its your opinion and that's all it is. as my method has been used for many years and answers his question, correctly. all you are doing is giving a new option. which in no way makes my way unnecessary nor bad advice.
Like posted before, just download wugfresh's root toolkit in the nexus 6 forums. It's very easy to use and basically does all the work for you, and if you screw something up it's usually a pretty simple fix. But remember to ALWAYS back up your data before doing anything incase something goes wrong or delete your data by mistake. If you need more help just pm me.

He can always come here and learn it the proper way. After opening a dozen of threads of "help my phone is bricked".
Cleaned (despite being in Q and A). And closed.
The OP should make their own mind up on the evidence AND experience provided by "Recognised" sources.

Builds done by myself and taker18 have no cherry picks and builds done by smoki can be considered a bit more experimental as they may have extra untested commits added.
But all in all you cannot go wrong with any of them and just make sure you are always using the most recent build you can.

My builds have none of that right now, smoki's builds do but I cannot comment on what works or doesn't
The only problem I've found is that Facebook messenger always crashes when trying to make a call, (voice and video) if it weren't for that I would 100% be using Daleski's as a daily driver as it was perfect aside from that. Unfortunately I use messenger for calls quite often so that's me out for the moment, as soon as they're working I'll be back on it. Massive props to taker, smoki and daleski for the fantastic work??
