Tried the new twisted ROM with twisted gapps, everything seems OK but I can't get the keyboard to show up which means I can't do much, under the language and input settings the default keyboard is blank. Does anyone know how I can get a keyboard back?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] beyeond:
Just download one from the play store
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] __NBH__:
How do I search for one in the play store if I can't get a keyboard up? :P

It just looks like Google keyboard isn't installed, I guess I need to backup the apk and install it on the new rom.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] beyeond:
Can't you go to play store website on your computer and click something to make it install on your phone? Pretty sure I've done that before.

Or maybe voice search Google?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] SFG:
I'm sure signing into the google account on setup was not possible to allow that
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] mixedguy:
I think you can still use voice search without having a keyboard. Just touch the microphone icon in the play store search field and say "keyboard".

Hello, anybody got OK Google to work on Twisted Slim? I've tried other roms using banks gapps and it works right out of the box. I love this rom though, it runs great compared to other roms, but installing banks gapps normal doesn't work to fix OK Google, and nothing else I've tried has worked either. Any suggestions?

Edit: Didn't see twisted gapps, giving those a shot as well.

---------- Post added at 07:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:22 PM ----------

Well, with twisted slim gapps I can't even get the google now option to use ok google from any screen. Anyone have any ideas?

[QUOTE)Well, with twisted slim gapps I can't even get the google now option to use ok google from any screen. Anyone have any ideas?[/QUOTE]

I have the latest twisted slim & latest slim gapps installed and have OK Google working everywhere.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] gambit07:
Interesting, can you walk me through how you installed? The google search app isn't packaged in the gapps so I'm assuming you installed from the play store? The only other additional thing I installed was the latest franco kernel, I will try not installing that
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] sesz:
Full gapps I used http://www.slimroms.net/index.php/downloads/dlsearch/viewcategory/1251-addons/downloads

Flash ROM, gapps...boot...profit. Go to Google settings train voice and your good.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] gambit07:
Awesome thanks for the quick response, will give this a go

---------- Post added at 08:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:12 PM ----------

Did you use the 2-7 or 2-9 version?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Smallsmx3:
Google everywhere... Meaning screen off unplugged
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] gambit07:
Yeah, so far this hasn't worked for me for google everywhere. This has got to be the most frustrating thing about nexus 6 roms at the moment. Some roms it works with no tweaking whatsoever, what is the difference from rom to rom that is causing this issue! :( The OK google everywhere v2 fix doesn't work either.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] sesz:
2/9
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] gambit07:
Hey, can you confirm if you can use ok google with the screen off and unplugged? Are you sure you're not just talking about ok google with screen on or when charging?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] sesz:
Only ever use Google while holding my phone. Never tried with screen off till now. But answer is no, OK Google everywhere works screen on only from anywhere with this combination. Sorry if I wasn't specific before.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] kr3w1337:
Does anyone know what font the new tapatalk is using and how I can apply that to my ROM? Ideally a flash able would be nice
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Skripka:
It looks like friggin Comic Sans...and between the bad font and the new spyware datamining policy you agree to to use Tapatalk...I'm done with it.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Smallsmx3:
Nope I've actually had it work for one rom, switch to a new one only to go back and have it not work
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] kr3w1337:
Hmm comic sucks. What's wrong with data mining? Makes sense for a site like this.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] gambit07:
Huh, never had an issue where it stopped working on a rom once it was working. Just switched over to Euphoria OS and it's working right outta the box :confused: Something's gotta be going on at the rom level
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] letmedanz:
i don't think i've messed around with the screen density.

The half page turning black seems to be a wider problem.

Will try to incoroporate lcd changer into the next build anyways

That's just weird man.

I only flash on my N5 which has a semi dead screen, so use it only for testing, don't install any apps & it does always have a keyboard :)

I haven't removed it & just confirmed that keyboard appears after a clean flash.

Maybe a bad download or the wipe was not clean enough ;)

I don't use google now, so twisted gapps does not have google now launcher, that could casue the issue.

should work fine with slim full gapps.

i have reports that it may not work with screen off & i will look into it..

but it should work otherwise with full gapps
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] rignfool:
Neat... And thanks...

More info:

I tried [MENTION=251020]inffy[/MENTION]'s build with the density changer... It appears... If I tested properly... That the packed out screen thing seems to relate to the build.prop line...

Inffy's LCD changer does not modify the build prop... But when I change to 504 without changing the build prop... The screen still blanks...

When I mod the build prop and set inffy's changer's density back to 493 it does not black the screen
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] gambit07:
Yeah, it works fine with screen on and gapps that have it included (Slim full, banks, pa), but screen off unplugged does not work. I'm assuming this is a rom specific function because I tried as many different gapps packages and OK google everywhere patches as I could find to try and get it working, since I love your rom. Unfortunately nothing worked so I had to switch to a different rom for the time being
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] letmedanz:
On which rom does it work?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Smallsmx3:
I've got it working on CM, PA, and any stock base (sinless ect.)

---------- Post added at 01:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:13 PM ----------

Also works on Frank... Although everytime I go back to Frank on a clean flash, it's not working lately
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Circaflex:
I think the newest google search update borks something, mine on clean installs doesn't work either after play store updates, but clearing cache returns it to normal and I can use ok google
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] gambit07:
Yeah it has worked for me on quite a few recently, my current is the 2015-02-08 Euphoria OS version with banks 2-8 gapps. Hope that helps! :good:
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] inffy:
Sigh...Euphoria isn't even Slimlp based...
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] gambit07:
I know, but lmd asked which rom it WAS working on, that's the latest one I've used that I can confirm it is. I haven't tried any other slim based roms so I'm unsure about that. Coincidentally, do you have it working in your builds inffy?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] inffy:
No idea as I never use it
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] wvcadle:
OK Google

While I use it every now and then, I could care less about having the functionality when my screen is off... definitely not enough to pick a ROM based on it.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] danarama:
I apologise profusely in advance for being a pedantic arse (unfortunately its one of my life missions to correct this) but the phrase you meant to use is "I couldn't care less". The whole point you're trying to make is that because you care so little it would be impossible (couldn't) to care less because you're at the bottom of the caring scale already. Saying you could care less means you're anywhere on the scale except the place you're trying to suggest you are.

Again, really sorry about being an arse. I do not possess the ability to let this go. Its a blessing and a curse.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] tiness:
Here we go again!! ??
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] wvcadle:
You know, I am usually the same. I've been called an arse for it as well! No harm done. Also, I know the appropriate word to use there (couldn't). I can't tell you how many times I've corrected others for the same thing. I guess between hurrying through a reply and checking my daughter's homework, I had a brain fart! :p
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] danarama:
Every time. I can't help myself

Haha. No worries. Its a compulsion of mine :)
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] githyanki:
Perhaps, this once, he actually did care a little. He didnt want to though, so therefore, he could care less.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] danarama:
That would be "should care less" :p
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] jdavis7882:
Figured out the Google hotword with screen off it will only work if the search app is installed as a system app. Confirmed on inffy 2/11 build by first installing mini and then full gapps.

Edit* Actually just noticed option went from app and home screen access to anytime screen is on and when phone is charging. Still no screen off anytime access..
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] DroidIt!:
Or maybe instead of I couldn't care less he could use I could care less but I can't because I'm incapable of caring less...though at that point he would be overly verbalising his current feelings in which case he could have simply said I couldn't care less to get his feelings across without being so round about in his explanation [emoji16]
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] danarama:
if he is incapable, he couldn't.. :)

Getting a lot of MMS messages that aren't downloading. I tried both messengers, changing mobile network settings and toggling airplane mode. Multiple reboots in between as well. I'm running letmedanz's version. Any ideas on what else I can do to retrieve them?

[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Circaflex:
titanium backup can backup mms/sms

check your apn first, make sure its correct that might be your issue

My APN is VZWINTERNET. Is there an easy way to verify what APN I am supposed to be using?

---------- Post added at 02:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:00 PM ----------

Nevermind. I googled it. My APNs MMSC and MMS settings are "not set". Is this specific to the SIM card or the ROM? Does it make a difference if one app can download the messages that the other app couldn't?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] DroidIt!:
I exactly know your problem...Verizon is the Antichrist that hates their customers and is the black hole of carriers in the US. Whenever you are trying to change your apn's they are probably monitoring your every activity with their super cookies so that as soon as you hit save they have an employee sitting at a supercomputer that hits a nuke button for SFG's phone at that exact moment. Sorry...screw loose today [emoji16]
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] gambit07:
It's invaluable if you use your phone in the car with a dock or anything like that, which I do. You can play music, text or send hangouts, call, read out notifications, etc without having to look at the screen or mess with it at all. I don't think there's a huge use case outside of that unless you're really lazy :p But that is important enough for me on my commute that I do choose rom's based on whether it's working. Plus, it's something google built into the N6, to me not having it working is essentially a bug. I love how fluid lmd's slim build is though, I really hope he can get it working!

There are a number of good builds for shamu. I can recommend trying the builds by [MENTION=251020]inffy[/MENTION]. [MENTION=2888538]letmedanz[/MENTION] builds offer more customisation if that's what you're after.

You need a permissive kernel - not the SELinux mode changer app, but a kernel that boots in permissive mode. Read here, I've provided a "fix" for N6 users in the interim that I've found to work pretty well. http://xdaforums.com/nexus-6/general/xposed-issues-nexus-6-try-t3030220
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] ldkud50:
I'm running franco and SELinux changer and it's working.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] inffy:
Mu builds kernel should be permissive by default
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] wrongway213:
Reboot (not a soft reboot, normally) and it'll stop working until you untick a module, apply it again and soft reboot unless on a kernel that boots into permissive by default

Ah, then users on your build will not need to flash a kernel and can disregard my little tips, other than the soft reboot stuff.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] danarama:
Not for me. I do flash elementalx afterwards but this should keep ramdisk as is.

However on your build, even flashing lean kernel permissive, xposed still doesn't work. Only using the init scripts posted on page 6 of the general thread works.

---------- Post added at 04:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:22 PM ----------

They'll most likely need the init.d scripts as I do.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] slick4mitch:
Could I ask you for a link to this script? Cause you are right, even after all those steps, and using latest LK kernel, nothing works.

OK so correct me if I'm wrong but isn't this ROM supposed to have a custom boot logo? I have flashed it via clean install. Boots up like stock and looks like stock except for wallpaper launcher and the fact it says slimLP in about phone.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] L3R0N:
The Nexus 6 is my first nexus device.....rooted, installed custom recovery etc and flashed this ROM the same day I got it and I must say that I'm loving it. Now I know what I've been missing all these years by using non nexus phones. Thumbs up Slim Team for this wonderful ROM.....I've always loved Slim. :) :D
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] numerouknow:
which build r u on?

slimlp comes with a boot animation of its own.

twisted slim has a different boot animation too.

i can tell u for sure that slim is different from stock. you will see the difference as soon as it bootsup cuz it has a different dpi to start with.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] kennyho35:
I'm on slimlp for sure. It boots up the exact same as stock does tho. And I can't tell much different really..? Maybe I'm missing something tho? In these screen shots, is this the look of slimlp?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] danarama:
Some carrier versions use the /OEM partition for boot animations. These override all other boot animations.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Yank555:
You might try one of the builders collective ROMs, the one you've flashed is pretty old (20141231, over 6 weeks). The newer will have more features and the builder collective generally have more features as the official ROM, since builders pick from gerrit what's not yet in official, and also from other sources.

Might even not have the SlimLP bootanimation in yet.

JP.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] numerouknow:
you seem have downloaded the rom from the op, right? its a very old build.

you can get the latest builds from here: http://xdaforums.com/slimroms/general/rom-builders-collective-t2861778

please note that there are multiple builds for nexus 6 from different devs. you may try and stick to whichever suits your needs.

you wont see any major visual difference but they do have some good customization features over stock. (twisted slim also has viper4android built-in.)
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] danarama:
That build definitely has the slim boot animation
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Yank555:
Anyone interested in the WiFi 5GHz channels (above 48 not working) issue for non-US Nexus 6, here's the kernel side fix :

https://github.com/yank555-lu/Shamu-3.10-lollipop/commit/5098b63639741cd2eb2b79001f83b77fc1042dc1

In fact the issue is not because of a difference in the hardware for US / non-US (is there a difference at all ?), it's just a decision Google or Broadcom took to limit, let's say cripple, 5GHz WiFi whenever you are ouside of the US as it seems :(

The WiFi regulations are applied depending on the MCC of the mobile network you are connected to, so move from the US to Europe, and all channels above 48 will become inaccessible, and many 5GHz networks will become invisible/unreachable.

When I get to it, I'll be pushing this to gerrit some time later tonight.

Though feedback from regions outside of US and Europe would be welcome !

JP.

PS: I hope nobody will mind the double-post, I posted this in the builders collective as well.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] kennyho35:
Yes I download from op. And when I went directly to the slimroms website there were no official ROMs in their download section. All I could find on there webpage were the alpha builds. I selected the newest one and ran it. If their are newer ROMs I am all for that! I have had slim ROMs on my phones for three years now. Slimbean Slimkat and now SlimLP. I love the smoothness of Slim's builds. As far as the stock boot animations go..... How the He!! Do I get rid of that annoying AT&T logo and sound on boot up?! Thanks for all the advice!

It is layer dependant. And also ROM dependant. There is a boolean required in the theme and commits in the ROM too.
