I finally have M2 installed...connected and played through Bluetooth on my Bose color link. I will try my car later.
[Nexus 6  General] JoeMidd09:
I have preview 2 installed with busybox, SuperSU and hellscore kernel but my system is read only and I can't change it. Is anyone else having this problem

I updated to the new Google Play Music update that just rolled out and I have no issues streaming Bluetooth music to my car anymore.
[Nexus 6  General] zoomy942:
This is excellent. But battery life keeps me away.
[Nexus 6  General] uicnren:
heh...

and its still going.
[Nexus 6  General] Brotuck:
Battery life is really good !

It is just the notification is really off, sometimes i get 2 extra hours with 1% left.
[Nexus 6  General] diogoperas:
Yeah, despite the unreliable battery reporting, battery life seems good for me. A full day with 4h SOT is amazing for my usage.
[Nexus 6  General] LeoRex:
Doze ain't no joke
[Nexus 6  General] Eckless:
Unfortunately no such luck for me - still get the "Bluetooth Share" issue with the latest Google play music.
[Nexus 6  General] Android The Greek:
Must be that extreme power saver ;)
[Nexus 6  General] lngwca:
so then the music app didn't fix it... i wouldn't think it would. though i almost tried but you beat me to it.

I have enough experience with bluetooth issues in the past that it has to do with the technology your connecting it to. may connect to some but not others. either way preview 2 broke it.
[Nexus 6  General] shugga101:
Mine did the same exact thing. For about 5-6 hours it was at 1% (since ~ 7PM to 1AM) and I kept using it by browsing the web, reddit, facebook, playing music and it just kept chugging along. I got about an extra 2 hours of SOT. It was the weirdest, but coolest thing lol and performance really wasn't that bad. Once I opened up snapchat and began looking at the videos then it was like yup I think thats all thats left.
[Nexus 6  General] kxhaz:
I am on Sprint. I also have my moto 360 connected and that does not have any issues as well. Tried the car several times this weekend with no issue any time and used my headphones as well and no issues.
[Nexus 6  General] indianajonze:
def something wrong with bluetooth connection in preview 2. connecting to my ford sync which to this point has been pretty much flawless (except for the known issues). in the past week my n6 has been just disconnecting from the car. car reports device was disconnected and the only way to reconnect is to power everything down (phone, car) and re-pair. no bueno. problem wasn't present on either preview 1 or 5.x.
[Nexus 6  General] forstir9:
I have another Bluetooth speaker at home, 2 different brands of Bluetooth headphones and my Dodge Dart that I haven't tried yet...like I said before, my Bose color link works flawless. I will connect all the above devices tonight to see where I stand with my M2.

However with M1 my Bluetooth connection in my car was horrible. It acted just the way you have described your issues with M2. I think I could count on streaming music about 30% of the time.

Edit...just tried the 2 headsets, speaker and my 2013 Dodge Dart...everything so far works perfect. My Motorola headset took the longest to connect...believe it or not.
[Nexus 6  General] beelow319:
Every now and then my dart will drop the Bluetooth connection, usually only when trying to stream audio. When it does, I just turn Bluetooth off/on on the phone and it connects again with no more issues.

Just curious, is your dart displaying metadata when streaming audio?
[Nexus 6  General] forstir9:
I just have the basic radio...not the touch screen. I have always been able to see what is playing but I didn't check that today with M2 but I know it always did before.

I can say that I only use play music and xbox music for streaming...and Audible for my audio books.
[Nexus 6  General] beelow319:
Mine has never displayed the song titles while streaming, must be the radio, I have the touchscreen radio
[Nexus 6  General] Brotuck:
After installing " battery monitor widget" i found out what the problem is with the incorrect battery graph.

Android reports a battery of 2200 (if i remember correctly), but the battery in the Nexus 6 is 3220 mAH.

So android basically reports 66% of the actual available power.

Does anyone know how to fix this ?
[Nexus 6  General] hellsgod:
Yes, by flashing a custom kernel where one specific commit is reverted.

hells
[Nexus 6  General] demonlordoftheround:
You should be able to go into settings for battery monitor widget and configure the battery. It won't help. The battery calibration is still way off.
[Nexus 6  General] Brotuck:
Well with the fast charger i can easy recharge when needed anyway. So ill wait for the next release. Do not want to mess with a custom kernel.
[Nexus 6  General] jlvlawrence:
Is there a certain kernel that will fix this problem?
[Nexus 6  General] hellsgod:
Despair, franco, hells-Core and maybe others :)

Is anyone else having a problem with android file transfer/MTP only working when in recovery? When the phone is booted normally, android file transfer says it can't connect to the phone. PTP works fine with the phone booted normally, but not MTP. Is this a known bug? Edit: PTP connects, but doesn't see any of the pictures on the phone. So, that doesn't work either.
[Nexus 6  General] xdatastic:
Works fine for me in Ubuntu and Win8.1 when selecting "Transfer files (MTP)" in the notification shade. By default, it is set to "Charging only".
[Nexus 6  General] v8dreaming:
I have it set to MTP, but for whatever reason it won't connect. Maybe I should hit it with a hammer.
[Nexus 6  General] tw1tch175:
If anybody in here has the know how it would be awesome to get a mod to switch the back and recent apps buttons. I tried it myself but it wouldn't work. (For the 2nd Dev preview)
[Nexus 6  General] indianajonze:
way, way off. at first it was an amusing novelty, but lately it just pisses me off. to not have any idea how much real battery life i have left when i'm out and about sucks. i find myself putting the phone on the charger constantly whenever i have a free moment. who the hell knows if/when 1% really means 1% or if it's 30%
[Nexus 6  General] jlvlawrence:
The best solution that I have found is to download the app Ampere and use it to make sure that it's completely charged. This is a screen shot from my gs5, but this is what it should look like when it's completely full. I've noticed that battery life seems pretty "normal" if you get all the way full.
[Nexus 6  General] kevdog98:
Did you find a fix for this? I have the same issue.
[Nexus 6  General] id10terrordfw:
Using Elemental X for M2 mine works perfectly fine. I did have problems with it on Elite.
[Nexus 6  General] kevdog98:
Yep. Despair works for me know instead of Elite.
[Nexus 6  General] maddoggin:
hey guys, been away for a few months and wondering if theres a thread, i didnt see one, with info on how to revert back to lyz28e from android m. is it possible to revert bootloader and all images via fastboot or whats the process? i understand in the early stages of 5.1 there were some bricked phones reverting back and changing bootloaders, is this still an issue? thanks!
[Nexus 6  General] ilpolpi65:
reverting back from M1 to 5.1 I didn't have any type of problem
[Nexus 6  General] simms22:
why do you need a thread for that, just flash a previous factory image or rom. you can keep the m bootloader and radio if you want. me, i created a nandroid backup in recovery of android 5.1.1, and have been hoing back and forth between m and 5.1.1.
[Nexus 6  General] maddoggin:
thread or info or post, anything of that source is what i meant, thanks for the info! also if you stay on android m bootloader and radio but have lyz28e recovery, boot and system.images can you root?
[Nexus 6  General] simms22:
yes. youll just have to flash a custom recovery and then flash the latest supersu. then youll have root as well :)

Bluetooth on M preview II

Hi,

it seems that since I installed "M II" on my N6,

I cannot use bluetooth.

I get a connection with my car, but an instant disconnect.

This goes on and on, until i shut off Bluetooth on the phone.

Anyone have any issues as I have?
[Nexus 6  General] Brotuck:
Bluetooth issues are most reported with this release of Android M.

It does work fine (most of the time) when i reboot the phone. Then bluetooth works fine. (for talking in the car)

But over time it gets really unstable.

It is really unstable with a android watch connected.
[Nexus 6  General] rohitsingh05:
Network Connectivity Issues

So I took the plunge yesterday and flashed Preview II on my Nexus 6. Two thinks to note:

1. Microsoft Health app seems to have some sort of 'signing in' issues. Doesn't progress beyond a point and keeps throwing errors.

2. More critically, my phone seems to lose signal reception after remaining locked for some time. This is something that is repeating again and again despite restarts. My guess is it has something to do with the 'extra deep' sleep that M is introducing. Any help on this guys? For the entire time last night the phone had no reception, I had to restart it in the morning. I am at work now and facing the same problem again and again.

I know the proper way would be to go through the thread looking for a similar issue and possible solution if provided. However, cant at the moment, so some quick help would be really appreciated.

Thanks.

"Preview 3 (near final, late July)"

July is almost over Google! [emoji794] [emoji795] [emoji796]
[Nexus 6  General] gtg465x:
Preview 3 will be near final? I thought M was shipping around the time of the new Nexus phones, but new Nexus phones usually come at the end of November, which is still 4 months out. What am I missing? Either M is launching way before the new Nexus phones, the new Nexus phones are launching way earlier than usual, or preview 3 will be nowhere near final.
[Nexus 6  General] beelow319:
Makes sense when you think about it. They need time to build and load software to all these new phones they're manufacturing.
[Nexus 6  General] xdatastic:
Has anyone got Android Device Manager working on M?

Neither of my M devices appear...
[Nexus 6  General] gtg465x:
Hmm. Don't new iOS versions go beta to final right before the new iPhone goes on sale? How do they do it? I think they start manufacturing several months ahead of new iPhone release, but they keep them all in the factories and don't flash the final iOS until just before release and shipping to retail.
[Nexus 6  General] Luxferro:
It works fine for me, but some users are having issues - it's not related to M.

[Nexus 6  General] xdatastic:
Thanks for the info.

I can still see my Nexus 4 on 5.1.1 and my Xoom (lol) on 4.1.2 in device manager, just not my M devices. They do appear when I flash the 5.1.1 stock firmware, but disappear as soon as I flash M2. Even clearing GPS etc doesn't make them appear. I wonder if it's to do with my Google Apps account as opposed to a normal google\gmail account. Oh well, no major dramas.

[Nexus 6  General] v8dreaming:
If I change it from charging only to MTP on the dropdown menu, it works properly. It only does not work properly when trying to change it in developer options.
[Nexus 6  General] LeoRex:
Well, it might be 'feature complete'. Depends on the build schedule. But at some point, they will lock the code base for new features and just resolve defects that pop up in final testing.

Whether that last preview build is the feature compete build... Dunno... But I'm guessing it's has to be pretty close. An operating system is a monster of a test effort and takes a considerable amount of time to validate, release to manufacturing and get loaded into production ready phones.

Anyone else having connectivity issues? I'm on Verizon and I cant stream any music from Google Play or download any apps from the store, however on WiFi it works fine. I can browse the web and do other things over LTE but anything involving downloading something from Google doesn't work.
[Nexus 6  General] beelow319:
I have the same issues. Its not a Verizon thing, there's a thread in googles forums about it. I noticed it when I couldn't download apps or use YouTube while on LTE. I don't have the link on hand, but search "google play store error 194" and that should bring up the forum. There is no known fix at this time. Mine will come back for a couple days then quit working again off and on.

Quick question for those of you running the M preview. Does using Pushbullet to forward notifications interfere with Doze? Conversely, when the phone is in Doze mode are push notifications (specifically through Pushbullet) significantly delayed? Thanks in advance.
[Nexus 6  General] kxhaz:
I have not seen that at all. I also have Android Wear and I can be sitting at work with my phone ideal and get an email, text or other notification showing up on my phone, screen (pushbullet) and watch almost all at once. If anything android wear is a couple seconds behind.
[Nexus 6  General] abogrhen:
yes there is a delay

and only happend when the app in the close or in the background

if the app is runing there is no delay

so i disabled doze for this app

[Nexus 6  General] Luxferro:
If you didn't fully wipe going from lollipop to M, then that is likely your problem.
[Nexus 6  General] RTNDO128:
This was a clean install. Everything worked fine last night. Woke up this morning and it wasn't working. So far, I cleared data for Google Play Services and logged out/back into my Google account. Still not working.
[Nexus 6  General] Luxferro:
Did you manually update any google apps? Play services, ect?
[Nexus 6  General] RTNDO128:
The only thing I did do is remove some system apps and install the Play Store versions (Gmail, Photos, Chrome, etc.)

EDIT: I just cleared data + cache for Google Play Services and now it's working again. Very strange.

I installed developer preview 2 yesterday and im having weird data issues.

I cannot seem to get the phone to connect to data. Wifi is great, but nothing i do will get it to connect (airplane toggle, change preferred CDMA networks, hands free activation, update profile/prl, reboots) nothing.

Any suggestions?

Im on Sprint, BTW (which is probably half my problem)

Thanks
[Nexus 6  General] kxhaz:
I have been on both preview 1 and preview 2 with Sprint and have had no issues with data. I am sure you did but will ask just to be safe:

1 - Is this a clean install?

2- Did you make sure to flash the radio and bootloader as well when you installed preview 2?

If so you may try and do a factory reset again on the preview and reset up the device and see if that help.

Does everyone's camera have these buttons at the top like on mine? I'm sure they never used to be there?
[Nexus 6  General] suku_patel_22:
Check if you are on the correct APN
[Nexus 6  General] LeoRex:
I've never seen those. They almost look like buried functions that popped up on your camera app for some reason.

Have you done the usual? I.e. Clear data on the app?
[Nexus 6  General] mattjuk:
Hi yeah I've cleared cache and data and the buttons are still there?
[Nexus 6  General] uicnren:
most likely you installed something very recently that is causing them to appear.
[Nexus 6  General] KnifeSkills:
Did you change anything in build.prop? In the Moto Camera app you can enable hidden menus like that by changing ro.build.tags= in build.prop from release-keys to test-keys or something like that, maybe it's similar.

I just did a clean flash of M on my Nexus 6 (after doing a TWRP backup). First things I noticed:

- VoLTE and WiFi Calling are in there (as mentioned by others)

- Even with an unlocked bootloader, I get prompted for my password on boot. (On Lollipop this is disabled when the bootloader is unlocked)

- Connecting to my work's 802.1x WPA2 WiFi is not working. It tries to Obtain an IP Address and then fails.

My toolkit consists of the adb and fastboot binaries. With those you can do anything.
[Nexus 6  General] ohhdavid:
No not likely at all. However, this sets up for the fact that down the road, especially with Mac adopting it as the only port, we will start seeing USB type C USB drives meaning no need for an OTG cable. Gonna be nice!
