Freeze/uninstall Google search.

PS - Agree with [MENTION=6842057]nathanchance[/MENTION] tho, switch to nova, best launcher there is.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] mikeprius:
To get rid of the search bar you need a different launcher. Googles stock launcher lacks a lot customization. Plus you cannot change the background on the app drawer. Try another launcher instead.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] scryan:
Yup nova ftw. The launcher is just a piece of software... You can use something different in its place so use the software that supports the features you want. I think a lot of people feel like they are doubling up by using a custom launcher, but your not... Your running a different one instead.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] ncwildcat:
I am trying to install my work email onto my device but I get a message that its not allowed on compromised phones (I assume rooted?). Will systemless root help me, or is there something else I can do to get by that?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] flamus:
Maybe... Maybe not. Do a backup and try of you want. Depending on how your work has the policy set up.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] ncwildcat:
This is what I see when I disable superuser
[Nexus 6 Android Development] githyanki:
I use AquaMail to get around exchange security settings. It acts like a desktop client so there is no additional security needed.

Other people have recommended K9, and cloud magic.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] drknow87:
I'm a first-time user of PureNexus on my Project Fi 6P, and I'm enjoying the ROM. Install was perfect. However, I've noticed that it seems to take an extremely long time to boot. I get the Android logo, then the animation lasts for several minutes before the boot is complete. Is this normal? If not, how can it be fixed?﻿
[Nexus 6 Android Development] :
This is the Nexus 6 forum. Perhaps you should ask in the Nexus 6p forum.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] AhmadOkda:
Hope you didn't install this on your 6P
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nathanchance:
It wouldn't let you, there is a device check in every zip file to prevent you from flashing the wrong one.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Dopamin3:
I also highly recommend Nine for Exchange email, but it is a paid application. It should allow your work email to setup and still remain rooted, xposed, etc... however you have your phone setup.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] t0ny0:
Hey guys, of course this rom is the bees knees, but I hate it how gmail still has that delay. I know its not rom related, but does anyone know a more specific date that "this week" for the release of the patch that will fix it? Or a current workaround? Thanks!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nathanchance:
No because that is on Google. I feel you though, I've missed some pretty important emails myself.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Timexd:
Hmmm, I assume no one knows a way to stop it? It does not bug me much with Netflix etc, in those cases it pauses the video but in most game apps it closes them, luckily most autosave.

From what I can see in the log it happens around the time it receives the intent from the SMS_CHANGE.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] wolfballz:
Until the update is done by google and it's fixed I found that if I open gmail and pull down to manually sync first thing in the morning I will get notifications normally the rest of the day. May help you also until it's fixed.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] phia:
Hello pure nexus peeps! I did actually Google this but it seems like nobody has found it yet. Maybe somebody found it hasn't been released.

But has anybody found a way to use Android pay yet?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] AhmadOkda:
after flashing a custom kernel, is there a way to go back to stock kernel other than re-flashing the whole rom again ? maybe flash-able zip for the kernel only ?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nathanchance:
Someone said that this workaround works here with systemless root. I haven't tried it because I couldn't care less about Android Pay lol.

Unzip the Pure Nexus zip and flash the boot.img (you can do this in TWRP but choosing the images button in the install screen and choosing the boot partition). This will only work if your kernel did not modify /system (I know this is true of ElementalX and Franco Kernel but I cannot speak for others).
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Ksunnyv1011:
Running elementalx I have an issue where I turn on the screen and it wont respond at all until I turn off the screen and turn it back on again. Anyone else experiencing this?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nathanchance:
I have never had a problem with this and I have run ElementalX since September. Does it happen with the stock kernel?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Ksunnyv1011:
I never tried using the stock kernel, just flash EX right away but I didn't have this problem with Chroma and EX.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nathanchance:
I can turn on my screen, either with the power button or sweep to wake, and it is immediately responsive. Did you do a clean flash when coming over from Chroma?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Ksunnyv1011:
Yes I did, I will do another with the next update.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nathanchance:
Also make sure you aren't running any additional mods like Xposed. I will mention that this could be something to do with Nova's locking the phone option if you use it.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] JRJ442:
I think that happens with any kernel that uses Wake Gestures. I've had that sporadically on every ROM since Lollipop, using EX or Lean.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] RayMcGrath:
NV The n
[Nexus 6 Android Development] TheAceOfSpades:
So I have the weirdest issue and can't seam to put my finger on what's causing it...

Many times when I wake my phone, the screen brightness will be completely disabled for about 6-7 seconds. After that time it will brighten up to the certain brightness it was set to currently. During that 6-7 second window also, changing the brightness via slider or status bar drag does absolutely nothing. This issue persists whether adaptive brightness is enabled or not (always performed a reboot between changes). It is also persistent no matter which kernel I am on, and it does it whether or not the statusbar slide is active or not in pure settings.

Any ideas? Really scratching my head with this one. :)
[Nexus 6 Android Development] fantasy2c:
Are you running xposed with gravity box module? I had that issue one time and that was the cause of it. Can't remember what I ticked exactly but it messed up same way your experiencing.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Ksunnyv1011:
Just turned off wake gestures and haven't had the issue.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] TheAceOfSpades:
Unfortunately not.. No mods actually. Just those that come with the rom stock. No light flow app either.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nathanchance:
Were you using the wake gestures app?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Ksunnyv1011:
Initially flashing the kernel didn't have the wake gesture stick so I had to set it through the EX app.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Markeee:
Is there way to enable wifi calling with Pure Nexus on my Sprint Nexus 6 ?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] t0ny0:
Unfortunately I do that every morning, and it still gives me no joy. Like it gives me stuff that goes into the inbox (some times at least), but stuff that goes to folders - nada. Gotta manually sync. And I have 7 different email accounts, so checking them all manually is just..a step I'd rather skip lol :)

Hopefully any day now google will fix it
[Nexus 6 Android Development] wooddale:
Ya just like there fixing the signal issue's on the 6p
[Nexus 6 Android Development] sstutu:
very very love this ROM thanks
[Nexus 6 Android Development] MrBrady:
XDA's search feature doesn't work right now, so pardon the question. What's the trick to getting Swiftkey to display properly after changing the screen density? The keyboard is gigantic and I can only see about 1/3 of it.

TIA
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nathanchance:
Yeah, don't change DPI :silly: SwiftKey has never played nicely with custom DPI, not sure there is a way around that.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] MrBrady:
Lol. Well, yeah. I read there was a work around though. Doing something prior to changing the density, then change it back afterward.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] bilguun1:
On home screen, on top, there is a Google search Bar, but it doesn't do anything. And swipe to left to Google Now not working. How can I access it and fix the Google search bar?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nathanchance:
Download the Google Now Launcher from the Play Store and make sure the Google app is installed.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Lancez:
It depends on your carrier, I don't think Sprint supports WiFi calling
[Nexus 6 Android Development] mn147:
hi. been using the cmte build. everything seems fine and I am liking the rom so far. I have had a few systemUI crashes but I think it may be due to the theme engine as I've not seen crashes with default theme. for example in app info, trying to get to permissions, etc. once when setting an alarm. anyway, might switch to layers, more used to that anyway. anybody else notice system crashes with cmte?

also, looking for a decent kernel. used to use Franco before with chroma. just wondering what everyone else is using with this rom and any recommendations. thanks

[Nexus 6 Android Development] Markeee:
Sprint supports it but they say the Nexus 6 don't ?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] mikeprius:
Sprint doesn't support WiFi calling like t-mobile. It would be nice if they did though bc of the way the Triband phones work with sprint.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Markeee:
The reason ask is I was getting some phone support enabling a Sprint Airave and the support person told me sprint is getting ready to do away with the Airave units and going to wifi calling instead.

Then she offered to enable my phone for wifi calling until she realized I have a nexus 6 and said the phone don't support wifi calling ?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] githyanki:
The phone, and this rom does support wifi calling. Project Fi is run by Google and uses wifi calling and only supports the nexus phones. Att does not support it on Android, sprint may be the same, it's not the phone they don't want to support, it's android in general.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] mikeymopar:
ask for another support person. following the link at the very bottom HERE for wifi calling "device support page" lands you HERE which, when expanded to show more motorola devices clearly shows the nexus 6. that said, it could be a site error and they truly don't support it yet.

EDIT: i had a few minutes to waste this afternoon so i looked at those links more in depth. it links to each device in the broadest sense. skimmimg thru the n6 i don't see wifi calling listed. it lists it for the iphones. ATT is doing the same; rolling out wifi on newer iphones initially. seems like you gotta wait like us att folk
[Nexus 6 Android Development] wolfballz:
For your folders did you go into manage labels and setup each folders sync? I use folders and have certain peoples emails skip the inbox completely and go into their respective folders. But in order for them to sync I had to go into manage labels and tell those folders to sync.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] MrMiami81:
Completely off topic but I'll ask here anyway.. I read a few days ago that At&t (my carrier) is testing 5g networks. I want to switch to cricket to save a few bucks. Do you think Cricket will support 5g as well being that its an at&t subsidiary or would I be better served just to stay on at&t?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] kbluhm:
You're right, that is completely off topic. Let's try to keep the discussion on PureNexus. I don't want to speak for anyone else, but that is why I'm subscribed to this topic.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] seabro01:
ElementalX
[Nexus 6 Android Development] ttabbal:
I think it's more that they will be testing this year. I doubt any actual customers will be connecting to it in 2016. They are likely setting up a few test towers to verify equipment before purchasing large amounts and such. To paraphrase Techdirt, it's 5G to the press release. They are making noise, not much else, at this point. And when 5G networks do go live, your N6 probably won't be able to connect to them. It'll likely still be backward compatible with existing LTE, but the higher speeds will require a new phone.

If I were in your shoes, I would switch and save the cash till there's a good reason to switch back. Maybe pick up whatever the next Nexus device is when network upgrades are live if that's your thing.

Other posts about it being off-topic are fair to point it out. It would probably be better to discuss in a new thread in Q&A or General.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nathanchance:
Well Bean doesn't mind OT, it is the discretion of the thread owner as to whether or not there is off topic allowed. The discussion is mainly about Pure Nexus but there is nothing wrong with some OT here and there.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] kbluhm:
Fair enough.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] mikeprius:
Looks like others have beat me to it, but I am not aware of any type of Sprint supported wifi calling. Project Fi or some other means possibly, but not from Sprint themselves. This is nothing surprising, there seems to be a lot of miscommunication frequently among Sprint customers.

Another issue is the "2-yr contracts". What the company has originally stated was Sprint was done with 2 yr contracts last year. Now it's lease or buy full in payments. If you ask 10 different employees you will get 10 different answers. Another is the SIM card issue for the Nexus 6P, etc.........misinformation most likely.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Adreaver:
In my extensive experience dealing with Sprint support reps, they are all uniquely terrible at providing correct information.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] kwdan:
My wife's Galaxy note 5 on Sprint supports Sprints wifi calling.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] shannonppp:
I just changed from chroma to this rom and loved it. But I do have some questions:

1. When I added a 1x1 direct dial widget, clicking on the widget will not initiate the call. Instead, it says "App isn't installed" on the screen. If directly dial the number and then call, it works fine.

2. Is there a way to remove the google search widget from the screen?

3. I have no problem to connect to my home wifi network. But at my work place, our wifi network is configured so you have to manually add it. I did manually enter the SSID and WPA/WPA2 PSK password. However, it will always get stuck at obtaining IP address step and never connect. I know the wifi network should work cause my co-workers are all able to connect.

Thanks for all your hard work!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] chaztro1892:
Any issues with GPS? Mine works fine on stock but can't get maps to work on any custom ROMs. I prefer Pure Nexus but I tried 3 others and they are all exhibiting the same behavior.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] mikeymopar:
1. ionno. doesn't work with stock launcher but works with nova launcher

2. use nova launcher

3. try developer options>use legacy dhcp client (this has helped others in a similar situation)
[Nexus 6 Android Development] githyanki:
Use it all the time since I'm new to the area. Works fine. you may have a permissions issue, or may need to update radio.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] AndriodBee:
Anyone got Viper4android working ?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] mikeprius:
Not the straight Viper4Android, but the other Viper4Android seem to be working. You need to flash the .zip in TWRP. The basic V4A didn't seem to make a difference, however; the dolby version works.

I'm just using stock audio. The V4A thread is too difficult to understand
[Nexus 6 Android Development] mikeymopar:
ahh. it works with stock launcher

gotta go to settings/apps/launcher3/permissions>phone
[Nexus 6 Android Development] mikeprius:
Is that actual Sprint wifi calling, or a feature built into Samsung's software that can make a VoiP call ?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] mikeymopar:
according to that sprint site i linked earlier the note 5 can make wifi calls
[Nexus 6 Android Development] mariol66:
Can anyone confirm on Project Fi, that Wifi Calling works? Using Airplane mode and Wifi on only?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] shannonppp:
Thanks! #3 is fixed after set to use legacy dhcp client.

[Nexus 6 Android Development] parcou:
All sound setting went away

This happens every blue moon where I do a normal reboot of the phone and with no errors, FC, crashes, etc. all the sounds links to apps, contacts, device are gone just replaced with a random set of numbers.

I go back and set them all takes a little time but I am all good once done. Something that has happens from time to time with the N6 but very rare. Has anyone ever heard of that or experienced that before?

If so is there a solution or fix?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] wolfballz:
I've had this happen only one time with my N6 so far. Not sure what causes it but you aren't the only one. Maybe someone else has an idea of what is going on.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] rignfool:
That sounds to me like your running a custom kernel with FSync disabled... You've turned on laptop mode in sysctrl... Or you disabled the CRC check... And had your phone die in your hand.... Without a cache flush...
[Nexus 6 Android Development] parcou:
I am running EX kernel could I check something in there I do have his manager app. Most part I basically default
[Nexus 6 Android Development] tsalate:
Yes it works for me.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] tsalate:

[Nexus 6 Android Development] fantasy2c:
Works perfectly fine for me, sometimes kicks in on weak signal too
[Nexus 6 Android Development] chaztro1892:
Thanks for the info. It was a permissions issue.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] wolfballz:
I've had it happen and am using the kernel that comes with the rom, haven't ever turned on laptop mode and haven't disabled CRC check or have the phone die in my hand. Only happened once on a previous build of pure but haven't seen it happen in the last 2 builds (running CMTE version).
[Nexus 6 Android Development] SpL3rG3:
Hey all, just wondering if anyone else is having network issues recently? I keep losing cell service randomly and I can't figure out why. I was in the U.S for a few weeks and I've only noticed the problem since I got back a few days ago, so I'm not sure if its the latest version of PN, Elite Kernel or just my phone. I flashed both the new version of PN & EK while I was state side and I ran into a few connectivity issues while in central Maine. I chocked it up to the 3G connection I had to use (TELUS doesn't have a good partner in that area it seems) but its persisted now that I'm back. I can only restore service after rebooting the phone., toggling Airplane mode does not help. I've dropped a bunch of calls too so it doesn't seem to be a sleep/wake thing. My APN's all look correct although I've reset them to default already. I know I'm more than likely looking at a clean flash but thats an hour of my time I will never get back so I wanted to be sure that was the right option.

TIA
[Nexus 6 Android Development] mwebb34:
Systemless root not recommended?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] adm1jtg:
I would say clean install or FULL restore of a backup for previous version to see if the previous backup version is not doing it as well but clean flash even taking an hour is probably your best and quickest solution

---------- Post added at 07:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:45 PM ----------

Systemless root seems pretty pointless now that AP wont work with any root method. I am still using 2.52 and see no reason to mess with anything else.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] mwebb34:
I have beta 2.67 downloaded. I'm downloading the CMTE ROM... I will be using a few xposed moduals also. I jaut wanna make sure I get everything right the 1st time.

What ever it is it works with Sprint
[Nexus 6 Android Development] demlv:
Has Le Goog done something (again) to prevent AP with root very recently? It worked for me as recently as 8 days ago with systemless root. I haven't used it since then as I earned my Chromecast reward, which arrived today. I used the workaround discussed here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=3307659
[Nexus 6 Android Development] thunderstruck!:
Turning on VoLTE provisioning in the hidden menu did the trick.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] mikeprius:
Wow.... That's good to see its available now. Maybe on certain devices. My nexus 6 can grab Band 41 sprint spark but the new 6P and do 2x CA basically pulling two band 41.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Markeee:
Whats band 41 ?

Remember note 4 is old already and getting wifi calling so why wouldn't the nexus 6 ?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] str8str:
I to travel between the usa and Canada and I have the issue all the time. Don't matter which rom. Been dealing with it for couple years. I think it Has something to do with the phone not switching radios when it needs to not all the required apn's are available. I use the secret menu in phone dialer and set it manually that's the only way I can get it to work proper. It really needs to be addressed
[Nexus 6 Android Development] mn147:
hi. I'm not getting heads up notifications. the toggle in notification settings for heads up is on. but still nothing. what am i doing wrong?

nexus 6_root
[Nexus 6 Android Development] mikeprius:
This is for Sprint. If you are not on Sprint then it's not applicable: You have a "tri-band" phone. That means it tries to connect to Band 25,26, or 41.

Band 41: Sprint Spark (2.5GhZ spectrum) and faster.

Band 26: Same as regular LTE but can penetrate buildings.

Band 25: Regular LTE.

My old GS4 did not have Band 41 or 26. It's either Band 25 or 3G but that was in 2013. The new Nexus 6P is 2xCA capable, which means it can utilize two (2) bands from 41 simultaneously which would make it faster.

Typically I am either on Band 41 or 25. Usually 25. For whatever reason I cannot connect to Band 26 b/c of some spectrum in Mexico and the proximity. Apparently south of LA there's interference. In Los Angeles I can, but it's something with Mexico's spectrum or whatever. I don't know the details.

As far as Note 4 wifi calling, I have no idea why. Fortunately too it comes with Knox.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Markeee:
You lost me what spectrum does the Nexus 6 get on Sprint and what spectrum do I want to get ?

Now that its seems Sprint does support wifi calling why can't i get it on my nexus 6 and what do i have to do to get it ?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] mikeprius:
You don't select a band. The phone automatically does it. The priority is:

1. Band 41

2. Band 26

3. Band 25

4. 3G, etc......

again you don't select it, the phone picks the best automatically. and connects you. The phone also does not do voice/data simultaneously like it did in the past. When you are on a phone call, data gets cut. Try going to a website while on a call. The only way around this is to run wifi in conjunction.

Re: wifi calling, I have no idea. It's not a big deal to me. Maybe someone else may know.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Trina9:
No Wi-Fi calling on the Nexus 6 on Sprint. I wouldn't except it to be added either.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] githyanki:
I will be travelling to Canada soon, apartment hunting in Edmonton. What steps do you need to take to get data working again in Canada after being in the US ?
