Hi,
So I recently got my AT&T Nexus 6 and was eager to rid it of its molestations. I followed the guide on this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexu...hread-t2947581
I got to the portion where you delete or rename the OEM partition and use the terminal command to just wipe the whole partition. That's when I got this error:
Luckily, another user here had the same problem, and a user named Bodosom had a solution:
I followed this method to delete the contents of the partition. I didn't bother unmounting the partition. I restarted my device and it worked! The AT&T splash screen was gone and I was happy. That is, until I went to change my ringtones.
I discovered that the alarm and ringtone folder both contained the correct file names for the files, i.e. Titania, etc., but when you played any of the files you got AT&T tones instead. I compared these with my Nexus 5 to make sure I wasn't just crazy. I checked the OEM partition again and it was definitely empty. Somehow, the AT&T files had replaced the AOSP files except for in name. I re-flashed stock android 5.0.1 and the problem persists. To make matters worse, when I try to select a custom ringtone, the filetype is not supported (both .wav and .mp3).
Any idea what's happening here? Is it something with the SIM card? Are AT&T's machinations more cunning than they were at first? Help would be appreciated.

Renaming media is sufficient. You can ls /oem after the mount to verify you got the right partition. These two commands undo the above. They may not be needed. / # umount /oem / # rmdir /oem Reboot. |
