Great news! You can now root your new Huawei Nexus 6P and turn off encryption & verity checks while keeping SELinux in Enforcing mode thanks to the patched kernel (boot.img) created by Chainfire.

Google Nexus 6P

Here’s a step-by-step tutorial on flashing the modified boot.img and SuperSU to obtain full root privileges – and the ability to flash custom ROMs through TWRP.

Kernel Details

  • Device: Huawei Nexus 6P
  • Codename: Angler
  • Android: v6.0.0 Marshmallow
  • Required Build: MDB08K
  • Status: Stock (Modified)
  • Type: Flashable image
  • Date: 28.10.2015
  • File Name: angler-mdb08k-boot.zip
  • Size: 9.5 MB
  • Developer: Chainfire

Download Kernel: Mirror 1 | Mirror 2

SuperSU v2.52: Official Mirror | Size: 3.8 MB

How to Flash the Kernel + Root

1. Prerequisites

  • You should have access to ADB & Fastboot on your computer and the necessary USB drivers should be installed.
  • Unlocked bootloader
  • TWRP 2.8.7.0 (Download & install here)
  • Backup of stock unmodified boot image/kernel
  • At least 30% battery

2. Procedure

Step 1: Download the kernel zip from above and extract boot.img from it. Copy this boot.img to the same folder as ADB & Fastboot.

Step 2: In that folder open command line (Shift + Right mouse button > ‘Open command window here’)

Step 3: Plug your Nexus 6P into the computer. Make sure USB Debugging has been enabled from developer options.

Step 4: Reboot your phone into the bootloader by executing this command: adb reboot bootloader

Step 5: Once your device reboots into the bootloader, flash the kernel: fastboot flash boot boot.img

Step 6: Now boot your phone: fastboot reboot

You should wipe your data partition through TWRP from Wipe > Advanced Wipe before using the device.

Congratulations – now you have disabled encryption & verity checks. Flash whatever you want!

Step 7: Reboot your phone into TWRP: adb reboot recovery

Step 8: Download SuperSU Beta from the aforementioned link and copy it to the adb folder.

Step 9: In TWRP go to Advanced > ADB Sideload and execute this command on the PC: adb sideload BETA-SuperSU-v2.52.zip

That’s all folks!
