Why don’t I see NRD90M in NRT for my device yet???

Hello everyone.  I keep getting asked the following questions in some manner:

Why don’t I see NRD90M in Nexus Root Toolkit?

When will you update it to support NRD90M for my deivice?

The answer is simple.  As of right now (8/30/16) Google has not yet published NRD90M Factory Images for all of the Nexus Devices Yet.

SOURCEhttps://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images

Currently they have published the official NRD90M 7.0.0 factory images ONLY for the following devices:

  • "ryu" Pixel C
  • "bullhead" Nexus 5X
  • "fugu" Nexus Player
  • "volantis" Nexus 9 (Wi-Fi)

So, if you don’t have one of those devices, you will not yet see that build available in NRT.

But WugFresh, I don’t have one of those devices – but my phone is already updated to NRD90M.  What gives!? Can I root it?

Yes, if you are signed up for the android beta program than you may receive an update before the factory images become available.  If so, YES – you can currently root it with NRT even though its not yet listed.

  • When selecting your device and build.  For the build selection pull-down menu, select the last entry, called “Any Build”:

* Alternatively, if you were to use the “Auto Detect Device + Build…” button, it would automatically select this option for you.


So.. how to get Android 7.0.0 for a device that Google hasn’t published the Factory images yet??

Answer: Sign up for the android beta program and enroll your device, then wait for the update:

https://www.google.com/android/beta


But I want to update to 7.0.0 with NRT! When will the 7.0.0 update be available for my device??

Answer: I don’t know, I am not Google.  I will happily work to update this program when it does become available (hopefully soon), but for now – your guess is as good as mine.


If you see this question in the wild, please do me a favor and link users to this post to answer any confusion.

Cheers!

New Factory Pack Added – [N7 2012 Mobile] Nakasig LMY47D 5.1.0

Masterlists 3029 Released adding full support for the newly released LMY47D 5.1.0 build for Nakasig [N7 2012 Mobile].  Just hit update in the kit to grab the new lists.

You can use NRT to update your Nakasig device to the new build via “Flash Stock + Unroot” button, and select “Force Flash” (default/recommended) + “No wipe mode” (if your device is currently running Lollipop and you want to retain data.  Not advised if you are running KitKat).

Just like always, when a new build is added to NRT – all the features in the kit are supported.  You can automate root, backups, flashing zips, etc.

That’s all for now.  Stay tuned! ^_^

Nexus Root Toolkit 2.0.5 is out – Now with Proxy Support

New version of Nexus Root Toolkit is now out.  I rebuilt the entire downloader system to be based off a wget instead of AutoIT’s in-built InetGet functions.  This should improve overall reliability and also enabled me to code in proxy support.  Many international users, and people who wanted to use NRT at work were unable to do so smoothly because of network restrictions, now it’s possible to configure proxy settings so all the auto-downloading and updating is done through that instead.  You will see a new section in the toolkits options menu where you can setup proxy config:

Check out the full changelog for the other changes in this release.

And head over to the main download page to grab it.

 

Enjoy! ^_^

New LMY47I Builds For N5 and N6 Added

Factory images for LMY47I 5.1.0 were just released for the Nexus 5 (hammerhead) and Nexus 6 (shamu).

I just updated the NRT masterlists now to extend full automated support for this new build.

To update, just hit use the “Automatic update” (hotkey Ctrl+U) or “Import Update Pack” from the Update menu:

That’s it!

Quick Tip: In the future, “Other/Browse” feature in flash stock can be used to flash new builds before I even update the masterlists.  Also, setting your build to “Any Build” should always work for rooting.

How to get KRT16S Listed In NRT

If you install NRT v1.7.8 – when you run it for the first time you will NOT see KRT16S listed.  This is because the way its built now, the masterlists won’t get updated until you first select a build (I will change this in the next version)

So… To get is listed, just:

  1. Select any build you want (then you can hit cancel to any of the downloads you don’t need)
  2. Wait for the main toolkit interface to open and the updates to finish.
  3. Then > Check back in the device list and you will see KRT16S listed!

That’s it. 😀

Also another quick tip: if you ever want to check for updates from within the toolkit, you can simply issue the hotkey command: ctrl+u

That’s all for now!

Nexus Root Toolkit v1.7.5 Released

Nexus Root Toolkit v1.7.5 is officially released!  This new version brings full to support to the new Nexus 5 device and KitKat.  NRTv1.7.5 also includes new display capture features; more specifically – it includes a screenshot feature in advanced utilites, and for 4.4 devices, it also has a new interface for performing screen recordings.  This Screen Recording feature will actually work on all KitKat devices (not just the Nexus line), so if people wan’t I may also compile that code as a separate app.

Head over to the official NRT page now to grab the new version: http://wugfresh.com/nrt/

 

Please refrain from posting support questions here.  You can post them on the main download page, or preferably on the XDA forums.  Also please check out the FAQs.

That’s all for now. Enjoy! ^_^
