Ok, screw you, Linux.  I just installed the update on my son's NX5x and he finally decided to root it.  So I ran it under my Linux VM to see if it'd work.  Installed the update no problem.  However, sideload failed because adb on Linux doesn't like to be run as sudo.  FFS...

 

Whoooooops....

It's not an easy thing to fix either.  Downgrading privs to make adb play nice is not a very simple thing to do.  I may have to sudo the fastboot commands only in the script but I recall that screwing up Mac users.  Good lord.

Right now reorganizing my downstairs doesn't seem so bad. Good luck....

 

 

Speaking of which......back to it...

so oddly enough the script generated for the Nexus 9 was way different than for the 6. What happened to the Custom Recovery...

 

#!/bin/bash

 

#Generated script from the House of Nexus 1.9.1.

#Generated script from the Factory Image: volantisg-mmb29x-factory-22bd48c1.tgz.

if (( $EUID != 0 )); then

What happened?  You didn't read.  That's what happened.    Don't make assumptions about how it "used to be".  I was clear about what changed, why it changed, and what you need to do.  

[cmh714]

flounder, volantisg, whatever, a PITA

 

Thanks!

[SamuriHL]

ROFLMAO!  It does make a difference.

House of Nexus 1.9.2 released

 

o) Changed adb sideload to a y/n prompt.  This allows users to skip the sideload step if they already have supersu zip on their device.  Also ensures people are truly ready to sideload before they inadvertently continue, right Sabres?  

o) Lots of internal non-user facing changes, so please test this out as I have no idea if I got everything put back together properly.  There were a lot of internal changes that don't impact functionality, but, any change this big could have a hiccup or two.

 

NOTE: If you have SuperSU zip on your device, you can use the install supersu functionality to boot twrp from memory, select NO to adb sideload in the script, and flash supersu zip in the memory booted twrp.

Is this marked as the Sabres Sideload debacle in your coding journal? 

 

I'd test if I felt like reflashing my backup of MMB29V but I'm not feeling that motivated right now.  If no one else runs 1.9.2 in the next couple days I'll test for ya.

Q:  Can the utility be used to just load TWRP live and Flash SuperSu without installing a system package?

[spainter]

The Sabres Sideload debacle. LOL catchy name.  It should stick!

I do that by editing the flashme script after its created. Just delete the parts you dont need and save it with a new name. HTH

[johnlgalt]

Lol I knew that much - I meant automatically, I edit it all the time.

[SamuriHL]

No.

Thanks for using the House of Nexus.
Press any key to continue . . .

 

It did boot TWRP to memory after the error. But the new TWRP needed to be pointed to the zip and told to install.

[SamuriHL]

Looks like the adb connection died.

[livinginkaos]

Why did it boot to TWRP after the error?  It should have already been booted

[SamuriHL]

Um, twrp gets loaded before you select Y to sideload, so, if that didn't happen, you got some issues.  I should not load twrp after the instructions are presented...it should do it before.  Where it shows downloading boot.img is where twrp is being loaded.

[livinginkaos]

That was why I asked.  I was thinking maybe someone got the itchy trigger finger and started pressing buttons too soon
