02. Install CWM Recovery and Root Phone
sudo adb reboot bootloader
Then
sudo fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.4.4-hammerhead.img
Just left to remember: Install libmtp
sudo mtp-connect
Forget that and install mtpfs, fuck that install go-mtpfs-git because it is the only fucking thing that works
pacman -Sv mtpfs yaourt go-mtpfs-git
You may have to remove reference to go.sh out of the PKGBUILD(I did at the time)
sudo go-mtpfs /media/temp
Copy UPDATE-SuperUS-v1.65.zip to a dir on the phone
cp UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.65.zip /your/dest/ sudo fusermount -u /media/temp sudo adb reboot bootloader
- Tab to recovery mode
- Install Zip
- Navigate and Select

- Chainfire has the supersu here: http://download.chainfire.eu/351/
- You may want to try the ODIN installer for your nexus as it is easier to just root. I just wanted to install the recovery also. Look at the Chainfire site for it. http://autoroot.chainfire.eu/
