How exactly do you have CM installed without root? That is a custom rom that requires root and an unlocked bootloader to be installed
Nexus 6 running SSHD or Cataclysm

If you have CM13 just go to developer options and enable root.

How did you root? Which method? You know things are different with Lollipop?
Go to "sticky roll-up" thread in general then read my overview of root options thread. Then you'll know.

The phone hasn't been updated to 4.4.4 and will not be. The closest you can get not is the stock 4.4.2 which the phone already runs. Or wait for the Lollipop update.
okay and what about removing the themes and costomizations from BinDroid ROM?

and can I root the device without flashing custom rom?? I mean just unlock the bootloader and install recovery and flash root file.

I'm really not sure about the process as I'm sticking to being unrooted for the time being. You should rather ask the developer of the BinDroid ROM about your queries regarding his ROM. I'm pretty sure he'll help you out.
And yes, I suppose you can root the device without flashing custom ROM.

No. Flashing the factory image will overwrite any kernel you have.

[Q] is this official lollipop update?

Hello on turning my phone on this morning I am prompted with this (screenshot below) and I'm skeptical about installing it as I love 4.4.2 if I install and do not like can I come back to 4.4.2? Is this lollipop?
Yes that is a Lollipop update. The clue is at V20C.
I'm assuming yours is D838? From which country?
Are you using some mods for the data speed and temperature on notification bar?
Don't worry, you will still be able go back to 4.4.2 by using the KDZ or TOT method

Yes D838 TWN model there is a screenshot if you need anymore info, and yes network speed indicator, CPU temperatur and CPU voltage in the top left as I like seeing what's happening at any given moment, the phone is stock rooted and the mods are through exposed, if I update to lollipop will I loose root? And also my mods? I would like to update but I would really dis-like not having root or my mods as they make my phone just how I like it would feel very bare without them.

Thank you I've just had a read and should be fine returning to 4.4.2 if I'm unhappy.
Yes this is what I suspected I hoped I would be able to gain root but I did assume exposed would not work thank you anyway for your helpfulnes! I will install later on and give opinion on how it feels and runs, I will miss root and exposed.

You may get root on Lollipop by flashing zip files (rom and SuperSU) from 4.4 recovery, more information at: http://lgviet.com/forum/threads/rom-d83820c_twn_pure.37488/ . I did this way and got root on my D838 Lollipop device

Currently, Xposed Framework does not support any Lollipop devices, even you have got root.
