[MENTION=4395895]BeansTown106[/MENTION]is there any chance of adding trusted WiFi networks to the smart unlock feature? I have lately been using "OK Google" w/ screen off and trusted voice, and its awesome. However I also use LMT Pie launcher in place of the nav bar, which works great, but won't work when the phone is still locked (e.g. in the Dialer or Google app as opened by OK Google while the screen was off). If I am connected to bluetooth I don't have this issue, thanks to Smart Unlock.

There is an app on Play that does this, but it forces an annoying notification even when not on wifi, and doesn't work 100%
[Nexus 6 Android Development] evilryry:
Pretty much decided to not even try M till beans releases test builds because I trust him more than Google ;) lol. Factory image rooted with custom kernel just won't do it for me unless it has pure nexus in the name. :D
[Nexus 6 Android Development] sfld:
hopefully pure nexus M drops in oct that would be good
[Nexus 6 Android Development] scryan:
I actually really would not mind some delay in it?

I am anticipating that it will be a little bit before xposed moves to M? I use my phone as a flashlight at work a lot, and really like the torch module that lets you activate the flashlight with phone off via volume rocker. More importantly I will be pretty off not having pie controls, as I have gotten super used to that.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] sfld:
Few kernels do that also, but in the new pure nexus ive been using the hold lock icon on lockscreen for flash light, works just as fast
[Nexus 6 Android Development] scryan:
I'll look into it, though a physical button that can be pressed as I am pulling it out and with out looking at the screen works MUCH better when your crawled up under/in/on top of something and only have one hand available :) Never heard a kernel advertise that.

It will be OK though, the pie controls will likely be harder to adjust to not having until I can get them back (still think they should be part of any rom on a phone this size)
[Nexus 6 Android Development] loadie:
Had this a couple of times, usually after flashing a different kernel. All other devices remain connected to my home Wi-Fi yet I still got a exclamation as opposed to actual Wi-Fi. A quick reboot on my router and all is good. Hope that helps
[Nexus 6 Android Development] treezy26:
Guys this is a little off topic but I figured this is the best place to ask. When making a backup in TWRP what all should be checked? When I select backup it shows that "system, data, and boot" are already selected. So does that mean that "system image, cache, recovery, or EFS" are not needed? Oh I am on TWRP 2.8.7.1 if that makes a difference.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] :
Any kernel that uses flar2's gesture driver can have the flashlight tied to any of the supported gestures.

Swipe Up, down, left, right, or double tap.

This is already available on m Kernels as he's building one, and other people who are use his driver too.

You can do other things too like changing tracks and such.

---------- Post added at 05:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:37 PM ----------

EFS should really only need to be backed up once, then if it ever gets corrupted restore that backup. Doing it all the time runs more risk of causing an issue.

Cache, meh.. Just let it rebuild.

Recovery? What do you plan on restoring the backup from, if not the recovery?

System image is unneeded.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] idiotzach15:
So I've downloaded the latest two builds of this ROM(9/16&9/17), and no matter what I cannot install them properly.

I've done a clean wipe, flashed the ROM, then GAPPS, and both simply give me an "Unfortunately, System UI has stopped." error that I cannot bypass.

What am I doing wrong here? I can't find this issue anywhere in the thread.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] beaverHausen:
Thanks . Think I've sorted it by turning on custom location but not selecting a place.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] skeeter123:
Wipe/Restore specifics

Most interesting. First time I've seen this explained so succinctly. :cyclops: Thanks much! This should reduce the size of post EFS BUs a bit for sure.

So, speaking of the system tick-box, is there a case where it really IS needed? Will the TWRP default "complete/full" wipe wipe the system (don't have TWRP open in front of me ATM)?

Much obliged!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] brizey:
lol, guess you read it again. System Image and the System partition are two different kinds of backups.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] adrman:
"System Image" is meant to be used as a backup of the factory image that came on the phone in case you should ever need to revert. However, since Google makes Nexus factory images available for just such an occurrence, I'm not sure how it applies to a Nexus.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] skeeter123:
Ok. All good info!

When we flash a new release of, say, this most excellent ROM, we do a " TWRP factory reset". Does any one do anything in addition like "system"? Howz about when coming from a different ROM?

And, during backups, one DOES select "system", but not "system image". Correct?

(sorry to hijack the thread. :eek: Hopefully this info can be useful for others...)
[Nexus 6 Android Development] shrimants:
I'm thinking of coming on to this rom from euphoria (and chroma before that).

From my understanding, when flashing from one rom to another, you must do factory wipe, including /data, /system/ and /cache (and dalvik). This will (should, if you did it right) require restoration of all apps and all app settings, and should require you to recreate all your accounts. It shouldnt require you to copy/paste stuff to/from the memory card like your pics and music, but it is a phenomenal idea to make sure that stuff is backed up beforehand. Also a great idea to make a flashable zip of non system apps+data using titanium backup, but no matter what you'll need to re establish all your accounts and sign in stuff on the new rom.

If you are just updating the current rom you're on, you can flash the rom right on top, called a "dirty flash". if that doesnt work, you should wipe /system and /cache, flash the rom, and reinstall any /system apps (namely google apps). /data will remain in tact, as will the memory card stuff, so you dont need to reinstall any non system apps or reset up any preferences within apps.

someone correct me if im wrong or im about to be in for a bad time :P
[Nexus 6 Android Development] 9wire:
^^^^^

That's the way I do it, but Google restores most of my apps. Haven't had to use tibu much.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] :
Really, there's no reason to wipe system... Unless you want to get rid of your old gapps.

Most rom zips either run a backup script that backups gapps a temp folder them wipes system and flashes the rom then restores gapps.

Or, it just wipes system with no backup script, flashes the rom and leaves you to flash gapps.

If you flash gapps, it removes the old gapps anyway... So you get the same end result.

Never really any reason to backup system image. One you wipe the stock recovery, it can't be used... Its the partition for recoveries that can restore the stock images during a reset. Once that stock recovery is gone, that ability is gone with it. Basically, you're just adding a stock nandroid that you can't use to your nandroid's nandroid. You know, like a trace buster buster buster. (points if you get the reference)

When you restore stock images, most of them restore that partition anyway.

Cache and dalvik, always wipe... Even on a dirty flash it will save you headaches. All this causes is the optimizing apps thing while they get rebuilt.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] buffal0b1ll:
Your dirty flash routine used to be my preferred way to go. Wiping system and installing fresh Gapps is good practice, yes, but many of us have seen first hand the problem in doing this on shamu. For some reason, if play store, play services, or search have silently updated since your last clean flash, and you wipe system and dirty flash ROM and reinstall newer Gapps, then your gonna find play store or search missing or play services errors when you boot.

The way to prevent this is to dirty flash this way instead.

Wipe caches only, flash ROM (no Gapps), kernel, etc. The built in Gapps backup restore script will keep things in order when you flash.

If you want to wipe system and install newer Gapps, then clean flash is recommended. Or you can manually check Play Store, Google App, and Play Services in settings.apps and uninstall any existing updates to clean things up first. Note - Rolling back Play Services requires you to disable Security.Device.Administrators.Android Device Mangler first.

Does anyone know how I can lower the min screen brightness. Is there a build prop I can add or an init.d script I can write? The screen is just a little to bright for me when the room is dark. I don't want to run an app to change it, just want to make a little tweak. Any help is greatly appreciated.

What gapps are you using?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] K-alz:
Marshmallowing soon?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] idiotzach15:
I've tried the Gapps linked in the OP, and TK gapps
[Nexus 6 Android Development] K-alz:
Xposed is your friend.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] :
There isn't one. The values are set for the screen brightness during compilation by configuration files. You can't modify anything to lower it lower that the slider allows without the use of third party apps.

Personally, I use CF.Lumen and Lux for this. It works great.

This is with a full clean flash?

Try with BANKS Gapps, its what I use and works fine. You could also try booting without any GAPPS installed to see if you get the same. If you don't you know where the problem is.

Is anyone else having GPS lock issues? No matter what I do, my GPS is off on High Accuracy by at least a 1/2 mile or more then if I'm moving it doesn't. I have tried other apps, not just Google Maps.

Any help would be great.

[Nexus 6 Android Development] jdog94:
had that problem a clean flash fixed it
[Nexus 6 Android Development] 1Zero3forlife:
I ave clean flashed 4 times, including a total clean wipe with my OTG.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] idiotzach15:
yes, it is.

EDIT:

So I tried installing without installing gapps, and I get the same error. But I'm sure the ROM downloaded correctly, and I'm no newcomer to flashing ROMs. Could it be something to do with the bootloader or TWRP? I am also using Multirom, so that could be a factor. Regarding that, I'm trying to install this as my internal ROM, and I can still boot my secondary ROM successfully.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] jdog94:
what gapps?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] micmars:
What's happening on bone stock? Other roms?

#WhiteUIsMustDie, #EndDarkAppOppression
[Nexus 6 Android Development] :
No, I run this on multirom as well. I've done it both as primary and a secondary. Worked fine in both spots.

Not sure what's going on... But its not a problem with the ROM.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] scryan:
I thought I read somewhere that the stock kernel of this ROM does not support multirom? Does not seem likely that that is the issue, but since you seem to have tried most things, and because I have no experience with multirom or how it works...I dunno have you tried clean flash followed by new kernel with multirom support flash before rebooting?

Random guess.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Adreaver:
LMT Pie launcher doesn't require xposed and is highly configurable to whatever your needs are. There is a thread on xda.

[Nexus 6 Android Development] Ed Murray:

[Nexus 6 Android Development] vwirstam:
Well, since i unplugged the device last evening before bed until for like one hour ago, it was 98% deep sleep so nothing seems to have woke it up.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] fantasy2c:
How much battery percentage did u lose in how many hours? Idle drain should be .6% or lower(Imo. 8% tops on idle) per hour of only idle drain with wifi on obviously that is pure idle not using the phone.

From your previous post u should not lose 20% battery in 6 hours while not using the device. How's signal. Poor signal will impact battery life badly as well as Rouge apps.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] vwirstam:
When i put away my phone yesterday, i had like 70%, don't remember exactly but it wasn't under 70. When i woke up 6 hours later, i had 49%. Good signal since i live in the middle of a semi-big town. The batterylife has been awesome until a few days ago, so may be something that i've downloaded. But the BBS dosn't show this...
[Nexus 6 Android Development] maigre:
If BBS isn't showing you anything, just check Settings > Battery. You may find the culprit there, in the most basic place. Once in awhile, I'll find that an app is using excessive battery, even if it usually doesn't. A reboot clears out the problematic behavior. Not the most precise solution, I know, but sometimes, it works.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] fantasy2c:
I've had an unknown awake issue as has atleast one other user on here that I talk to almost daily and we have yet to figure it out exactly as nothing post as drain/awake time although we don't get that bad of drain though. Sometimes a simple reboot fixes the issue for me and sometimes it just takes a full charge cycle. It's all completely random.

If all else fails just boot to recovery and clear dalvik and regular cache and try that. It's worked for me normally when I get it. Although I rarely have the issue, my friend has had random unexplained awake time more frequently but it doesn't affect his battery life very negatively like it is you. Worst comes to worst start removing apps until the issue resolves then u know the app that is causing it or clean flash and slowly start adding your apps back and keep track of when/if the issue comes back.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] xe0r:
Strange, have you already looked at wld? Sometimes even the simplest app is causing problems like the cLock widget updating weather ALTHOUGH weather and location serveces are disabled !! Keeps the phone awake the whole time..

As already mentioned by another user, what about settings-> battery? is your phone denying deep sleep?

Curious about ROM Toolbox. Do you know if it interferes with an app like Kernel Adiutor in any way.

Aside from fonts what other benefits do you get from using it?

Thanks.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Ed Murray:
Are you referring to the one by JRummy? If so, it has not been updated in quite some time I do believe. I can't think of one feature on that you'd actually need that you wouldn't get elsewhere in a more modern app, that's updated frequently. If you looking for fonts there is a great thread on XDA with flashable fonts or an app on GP called iFont that works well.

Edit: after looking at this again, it appears he did actually update last July, so maybe more features work again. I remember installing that app last year to use it and almost every feature didn't work and it hadn't been updated in over a year. It shouldn't interfere with Kernel Adiutor, as long as it doesn't tweak Kernel settings.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] r1ndr3w:
Thanks. It does do some kernel tweaks from I can see.
