Running without gapps. Night and day difference on battery life that's for sure.

Speaking of which, AOSP e-mail gave me an error about wrong username/password. I went into settings, enabled sync, and then it worked fine. So if anyone else has problems try that.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] poczynek:
So if you run without gapps you don't have Playstore? Or what gapps do you flash?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] ryude:
You don't get the play store. What I do is install F-droid store.

Http://f-droid.org

If that doesn't work for you, try http://m.aptoide.com

Just make sure unknown sources is enabled in security settings.

Most AOSP apps are much better anyway.

It's hard to say, but I think Lean Kernel gives slightly better stability and battery life than the others I've tried. As for performance, every once in a while it will hiccup. But we're still so young in this devices life, can't expect perfection.

Was on LK for awhile, then tried sensei as of 2 days ago, here is yesterday's battery life. Performance is top notch too!
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] DroidIt!:
For all those having problems booting, kufi posted somewhere :) that the provided kernel doesn't call up I think it was mpdecsiion at the right time. Simply let the phone sit, ie. let the google screen flash 3 or 4 times or if that doesn't work, do a hard reboot and then you should boot....known issue though [emoji106]

Here it is :) from kufi in the N5 thread yesterday:

QUOTE=kufikugel;57450728]I know about this problem and investigating it. That said it is not really a boot loop it just do not get the kernel mpdecision up early enough. But either you see the Google logo three times and it startup or power it completely off and boot up.

That's why it is not really on high priority due that it boots up for sure.

Boot loop we say usually if you hang on the boot animation which is as well usually a critical bug but this problem we do not have :D[/QUOTE]

Well this is hammerhead only lol due of the mpdecision implemented in our kernel which is causing this.

APNs are definitely correct. I am not the only Finnish user with the problem. And it seems to be an carrier problem.

It is strange because most of the time the phone can't even get a signal and let's only emergency calls to be made.

Might of course be a hardware problem, I really don't know. I got it to work one time but after the next reboot it was again broken

And the same card works fine with Oneplus One

[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Yank555:
Just noticed a recurring thing on many of the Qualcomm devices I've had, time is not set in recovery, so Nandroids are dated 1970 or so, was not the case on AOSP and isn't the case on SlimLP on Nexus 5.

On the Note 3 it was just about replacing the time daemon binary in the ROM.

I've built with Elemental X as the kernel since there were some booting issues with stock kernel.

That's the only difference with official SlimLP..

Not sure which unofficial version you were querying about.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Skripka:
Also has status bar brightness slider.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] cordell12:
want to drop you guys a build, DSP Manager is removed and AudioFX takes its place. Because of this it may require a wipe of system before flashing, OR you can use Root Explorer to delete DSP Manager then reboot for use of AudioFX.

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=22655
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Smallsmx3:
Does this need a different kernel to flash?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] letmedanz:
Thanks Cordell12

Is this change a permanent one going forward on Slim?

Or only a test/personal version for now?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] cordell12:
millage varies on this subject. personally ive never had to flash another kernel, i would say load up lean kernel on storage just in case.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] cordell12:
looking to be permanet, though hasnt been merged yet. the devices that can support AudioFX will be moving forward, while those who cant will remain on DSP Manager. So i guess you can call it a "test" :)
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Nucleonic:
I see some others are posting tweaked builds. Is it the OP's intention to create weekly updates to the main build? When will shamu be included in both the Nexus6 G+ community as well as the SlinROM forums. I know this is Alpha. But the OP states this is an official ROM.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Rauch:
It's an alpha. Updates come when they come. Eventually it will hit weekly build status. Whether that be due to bug fixes or the entirety of the ROM being ported over from KK.

Yes, its am official ROM because its a release from slim dev's and not just compiled by any old user.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] bamfsig45:
AudioFX vs Viper? I'm not failure with AudioFX
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] akellar:
AudioFX is CM's updated/rebranded DSP manager.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] bamfsig45:
My question was more along the lines of....Which is better?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] DroidIt!:
You just have to try it for yourself :) I know probably not the answer you were looking for, but my initial impressions of audio fx is greater/more granular control of the different outputs. There's just more tweaks in there. Now I haven't played with it much yet, but it does seem like it's a step up so far ;)
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] __NBH__:
I flashed the ROM and mini gapps, it works nicely but my device still says it's encrypted? Is this right? When I updated to stock 5.0.1 I flashed the boot image to decrypt but didn't do the factory reset, when I installed slim I wiped what it says on the website for twrp. Do I need to factory reset then install again?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] twcobra:
Yes you have to factory wipe after flashing the decrypt image. If you are uncomfortable manually doing the process Wugs tool has a feature to automate the process. Remember you will loose all data and will wipe everything off of your SD card. So remember to back everything up on your computer.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] ocbrewing:
When you flash the unencrypted kernel you need to format your data partition in order for it to be unenrypted. This means you will lose all your data, but better to do it sooner rather than later if you really want to be unencrypted. The TWRP factory reset doesn't format your storage, this will.

cmd:

fastboot format userdata

Phone won't charge beyond 91%... Any ideas why this might happen?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Rauch:
Odd... Have you checked any battery stat app? Or *#*#info#*#*?

If that doesn't really give you much, I'd try reflashing. Honestly, I've never had that issue on an android device; however on say... Laptops... It usually ends up being a defective battery.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] kr3w1337:
It wasn't happening until I went from liquid kernel to elemental kernel on liquid ROM. Then I formatted fully a D changed to slim and it's still there.

Seriously hoping you're wrong about the battery.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Rauch:
The correct question would be is it systemwide or only functional for certain apps as DSPManager is. If its not systemwide, just toss it.

---------- Post added at 05:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:10 PM ----------

The battery issue it could be, but chances are slim. Now that you mentioned the kernel.... I feel like I've read somewhere in the n6 section about this happening to someone else. Have you tried flashing a different kernel besides the two mentioned? Stock, sensei, lean, etc.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] kr3w1337:
At the moment I'm trying lean, I'm gonna give this 24 hours. Try to drain it a reasonable amount and then recharge to see how far it gets.

It makes no sense that it's broken but stuck at such a specific value. A defective battery wouldn't charge at all.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] aSquard:
So I've been trying out a couple different ROMs lately... I booted this up and Play Movies gives me the error "Playback isn't supported on this device". I don't mess with densities much, but am I encountering this error because of the density change in SlimLP? Just pulling at straws here... according to the other posts (yes I searched), issues with play movies should be fixed in the Alpha build
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] DroidIt!:
Just got my N6 today and decided to load up cordell's build he posted earlier. Got all booted up and everything works great, except probably 10 or so times a minute I go from having good reception and then it completely drops for a few seconds on tmobile. I tried deleting all the other APN's I don't use, went into select carrier, rebooted and I keep getting the same. Anybody else in a similar situation that's found a fix?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Rauch:
Batteries tend to degrade over time... But that being said, it shouldn't be this quick (and probably isnt, but the possibility is there) they don't necessarily just die, but will degrade in maximum err... Can't recall the term. I think its maH, not certain though.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] kr3w1337:
You can always reset to stock density 560 and see what happens. It was either 560 or 565.

---------- Post added at 12:27 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:21 AM ----------

Yes, you're right but this soon means that they put a year old battery in this phone. Which seems unlikely to impossible. Chances of literally destroying the cells where they cannot hold charge also seems unlikely. There's a software problem at some layer, ROM, kernel, battery firmware or something else.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dankoman:
hey - i'm on tmobile too. try going into the *#*#4636#*#* menu in the dialer, and in "phone information" change the dropdown box to "LTE/GSM Auto (PRL)"

When my phone signal drops to nil, I see my GSM service flips from in service to Emergency calls only and network type flips from UMTS to Uknown...don't know what any of that means lol, but this is after I tried flashing back to the 5.0 radio.

Hold power and volume down
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] __NBH__:
On my Samsung S4 on SlimKat I always had a problem with the music 'buzzing' or sounding like it's getting stuck temporarily using Poweramp.

I then switched to the Nexus 6 and on stock ROM I never encountered this problem. However, since trying SlimLP I can hear the 'buzzing' is back. It tends to happen when the CPU is at high load e.g. listening to music, downloading apps from Play Store and using the phone at the same time or when there is a change in network i.e. reception changing to a new mobile mast.

On my old phone one of the theories was the issue came from the music files being on the external SD but everything is now from the internal SD. Does anyone have any ideas what could be causing this?

I'm on SlimLP 0.8, the kernel that comes with the ROM, decrypted and rooted.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Smallsmx3:
Maybe it's the EQ.. Audio fx is just an updated DSP manager from what I understand
