Layers

I am wanting to try out the layers function and from what I have read is that you need the layer manager app, is that correct? I have read some comments in this thread about folks having issues with some themes and was wanting a little insight into layers. I would love a darker theme throughout the phone. If you guys could give me a little info, I would really appreciate the help.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] GuyInDogSuit:
I figured as much. No point in reporting bugs to Google if you're using a custom ROM. But then again, lots of other stock ROMs still have it.

Layers Manager comes built-in, but the layers themes that have trouble are the ones that require the latest Layers Manager beta. The one I use is The Magpie. There's others but I forget the names. I heard there's one better than Magpie but I don't remember the name of it or I'd have it installed already.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] jbeezley:
If you've already installed root companion, uninstalled the root companion app after approving it root access, done the reboot and its stuck calculating I would uninstall and start over. I had that problem before and tried clearing all data from the app, but it didn't help. I had to uninstall and reinstall.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] scryan:
Your using customized software... Your bug report is not relevant.

I doubt Beans is adding it back... Just like he doesn't want bug reports from a dirty flash with some other kernel... It just dilutes and distracts from actual development to get reports from cases where the potential issue is not from your code. I realize it may be (or even probably is in some cases) from the original code, but unless your going to sift through everything, preform traces, ect,ect to prove that it just ends up that the developer is going to have to put a bunch of time into testing and debugging an issue, only to find out its caused by alterations to the original code and all that time was wasted instead of addressing actual issue. I don't think any developer wants bug reports from modified versions of their code unless the reporter has done thorough work to show that it is certainly and issue with the original code.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nathanchance:
Hey [MENTION=4395895]BeansTown106[/MENTION], here is a little token of my appreciation for the great ROM and community that you have going: 6UR300075R956221N. I know it isn't much but hopefully you can enjoy it after you get the next build released :p Go see Star Wars or something lol (which was pretty good by the way). Looking forward to this next release and the many more to come, keep up the good work.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] colinmcg71:
That's correct, once you install Layers Manager from the Play Store it will show up in settings. The latest version is 4.4.1.

I'm using CommuteUI & Evolve with black primary, blackout background and blue accent. Nice and dark...
[Nexus 6 Android Development] GuyInDogSuit:
With those Layers themes, is there a Material look? You know, the dark grey? From the Google Play Store images, it looks like there is.

So I now know, for sure, that the PN ROM had nothing to do with my signal issues. I flashed the stock image, already had the latest radio and bootloader. Still have issues getting a signal on T-Mobile. It connects, but I get the message "Emergency Calls Only" and the dialer code tells me that the SIM Operator is T-Mobile, but the Network Provider is "Unknown," and the signal indicator is just an empty triangle. I've been going back and forth with Project Fi about this, they sent me a new SIM card, still having these issues. So I had to flash stock just to run some tests, and then send them a bug report. Hopefully this gets somewhere. Now back to Pure Nexus!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] colinmcg71:
I ended up with this using a combination of teal accent, DeepDark & Elixium background/primary/QSbackground.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] evolefty:
Is the layer manager built into the 12/09 build? I am still running the 12/01 build and I am not seeing that option in the menu.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] colinmcg71:
Layers Manager app is not built into any version of PureNexus but it will show up in settings once you install it from the Play Store.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] evolefty:
Gotcha, really appreciate your help. I am going to give it a go and see what happens.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] colinmcg71:
No problem, happy to help :)

I did a bad thing, flashed something that tried and failed to encrypt my phone, so lost everything on my SD card. :(

Question is any advantage to OTG vs backing up to my computer? I'd like to have a copy of a nandroid at least, and how do you put one back on your phone and have it restore? Tried it before and twrp wouldn't find the file.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] technut:
Twrp backs up to its own file whether its on the phone SD or OTG. The advantage of OTG would be that you are not taking up that space on the N6 but if you don't care about the space you can always leave it on the Nexus. As far as the backup, you can move it any where you'd like after even the PC. A good rule of thumb would be to backup b4 you change anything that way if something screws up you can always go back. If you don't need it you can always delete after but if you don't have it your screwed. I move them to PC and as I know I won't need them, I delete from there. If you have 3 or 4 backups on the N6 it can easily take up a lot of precious space needed for other things.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] 9wire:
I keep one on the phone, I'd like to keep a copy. When the encryption failed I lost everything including my backup, pics, about 10gb of music, everything. Last time I tried to put a twrp backup from my PC back on the phone, twrp wouldn't recognize it. Just copy the entire twrp file?

Dirty Flashing Battery update part two... w00t

Who knew Beans and Marshmallows would be so delicious together????

I had planned on updating this thread... but I didn't know that I would forget to put the phone on the charger last night...

BUT WHO CARES WITH BATTERY LIFE LIKE THIS?!?!?!? (ha ha ha ha.... I spit in the eye of previous battery performance!)

I used the phone a lot the last two days and... still going. TWO DAYS on a Smartphone??

[IMG="N6 Battery Screenshot"]http://geekoncall247.com/n6battss.png[/IMG]
[Nexus 6 Android Development] technut:
Twrp backups are in twrp folder/ your phones serial number folder. You can move what is in there as you wish so long as you put it back when you want to flash it so twrp knows where to find it. That is where it looks for backups. If you backup to OTG it will create the same folder tree on that drive that it creates on the Nexus SD. In your case it sucks bad loosing all your stuff. Maybe keep them on OTG so you know your safe.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] famac!:
What is your screen on time? I can barely make it to 3.5 hours before its a wrap.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] veloslave:
Ironically...

The screen on time was 3 hours, 33 minutes and 33 seconds... with 8 hours left.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] famac!:
Looks like we are in a similar situation. Those "8 hours" will expire in less than 30 minutes with the screen on.....

Is there a way to use icon packs without using a launcher like Nova?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Markeee:
I wanted to unlock root and flash Pure Nexus on my 100% stock Sprint Nexus 6 tonight

Can some please point me to a good solid updated how to video to walk me through the process

I'm already updated to 6.0.1 MMB29K.

Have Nexus Took kit install just afraid to get started without a good updated guide in front of me covering all latest changes in MM6
[Nexus 6 Android Development] jbeezley:
Can you link me to your command center widget dl location. I lost that and have been trying to get that back, but they shut down the thread I got it from.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] scryan:
Sorry if its irrelevant or of no use... But so often people seem unhappy with their stock launcher but unwilling to run a different one.

I was kinda the same, I didn't want to run another launcher on top of what I had, I felt like this was a heavy and unnessisary alternative...

But the truth is that running one launcher replaces the other. Its like linux in that everything is little pieces... If the one does not fit you run another. Their is no reason to not change to whatever launcher fits your needs. Even "stock" doesn't use the stock launcher. There is no reason to stress over how to fix the stock launcher when you can just run the one that supports what you want. Its not like nova runs on top of your stock launcher, it runs instead of it.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] technut:
Nova is so much more than just changing icon packs. I would say that is the least important thing it can do. You can change the grid size of your screens,shrink icons, resize anything on your home screen,overlap things,create folders in the app drawer to better organize things or hide things like extra icons created from keys purchased for apps. On our nex6 you can have 7 icons in the dock which is awesome,on other devices like nex10 even more and you can have a scrolling dock with even more. It does much more than these things. If you ever use it you will never go back. If you buy it,it could possible be the best money you have ever spent on your device and the purchase also transfers to every android device you have or will ever have. All for less than the cost of your daily cup of Joe.

Dam I'm glad I found this thread I loved beans work on my note 2 I've been out the loop pretty much since I assume this is good to run on vzw nexus 6 or are all us varients the same?

Longest... Multi-quote.... Ever...

Keep up the good work, beans. Got a tip my hat to you, brother. You're probably one of the most involved devs I run across in a long time. Posting in the thread shows us you love what you do and are committed to the quality of your "product." Thanks for the reply on the TWRP problem, but it's all squared away. Appreciate your efforts and I'm grateful for your talents... Makes my nexus happy.

[MENTION=4395895]BeansTown106[/MENTION] PLEASE READ IT

im thinking to flash your rom but i ve one question.

I ve experiencing no data connection, one " ! " appears over the signal icon (Internet its very bad, i test with all radios, M radios an L radios but the " ! " dont disappear and my internet It remains poor.)

Do you know this bug?

I search it and i find this: https://productforums.google.com/for...us/7XqSg2bt8VM , I noticed with this bug appears around the world after lolipop update, and still not find the fix

do you know any solution ? im desperate :(

In your ROM, do you have any idea if this bug appears? (Im in chroma rom 6.0.1_r3 and i ve this problem)

Thanks in advance my friend!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] jbeezley:
I'm no beans, but I only get this "!" When I have my root-firewall maxed out to disable system apps from internet access.

Hey Beanstown106

Removed rounded corners from recents

Does it mean that you removed the commits needed for themes to have rounded corners to work properly? If yes, why?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nickoArd:
how can i disable the root-firewal?

Its a pre-installed app? because i dont have installed any firewall

Thanks friend!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] enzoevo:
Install it and find out. Pure Nexus is a superior ROM anyway, so even if the bug appears it's still worth using as your daily driver.

I don't know if this has been discussed before but I would like to see SU updated to latest version. I want to use Android Pay but for everyone is know which are the problem regarding rooted roms. Now latest version allow us to use Android Pay by deleting a file in /system and of course breaking BC with a few applications but I don't care about them, what do you think about this?

Note: I am talking about this
[Nexus 6 Android Development] michigan66:
Flash the unSu zip and refresh the latest su. It won't fix android pay but it's worth a shot. Android pay will not work on custom roms. If it was working successfully all the time there would be thousands of posts all over these forums.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] reynierpm:
Can you link me the unSu zip script? I am not able to find it. And I disagree with you, there are some users reporting Android Pay working with custom roms by using this version of SU. I will give a try if I know for sure that using unSu and then flashing this new 2.62 will not break my ROM since there are a few things related to boot image that I don't get it (I am talking the instructions on Chainfare)

Right here. The only ones I have seen work with AP are factory image ROMs, not AOSP ROMs. I have tried it on this one using many, if not all, different combinations of SuperSU 2.6x and UnSU and it doesn't work, fails every time. You are more than welcome to try it as well but I can guarantee that it will not work. Only sure fire to get Android Pay working: flash stock and don't add any modifications.

[Nexus 6 Android Development] nathanchance:
As our lovely moderators have said, it is generally poor form to ask for an ETA on a build since our developers and Beans in particular work so hard to give us a high quality product for free. However, I did want to throw down this quote from this morning:
[Nexus 6 Android Development] djcsurf:
Beans did post 7 hours ago that builds are being cooked up for serving at dinner time today. When his dinner time is who knows but its incoming :)
[Nexus 6 Android Development] rignfool:
This kinder gentler JJD is not what I am used to...
[Nexus 6 Android Development] scryan:
If your heading off onto a trip.... Why the hell would you want to flash untested software? I mean, beans is good and there isn't too much worry... but the new build won't be ground breaking either, and hasn't really hasn't been tested by a very large group yet.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] RomsWell:
Because traveling can be extremely boring. And new software is not boring. :) I flashed the last build not 30 minutes before I went outta town for 3 days. The Florida keys BTW is a hell of a good time.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] MrBrady:
This ROM is systemless root, correct? Anyone know if Android Pay works if you delete /su/xbin_bind?

Note: From what I've read that will kill Xposed, but most other rooted apps work normally still.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] franatic08:
No. No systemless root here.

The steps to maybe get AP working on a custom ROM are out there. Somewhere.

It's really simple: want 100% working AP? Stay stock.

Want xposed? Install it, use mods and hope they don't break stuff. If they do, don't complain to the ROM dev.

It's all trial and error basically.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] MrBrady:
I'm on the stock "lite" ROM now and AP works great, along with root. Just curious about PN because this is my go-to ROM and I miss it.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] franatic08:
Like I said, trial and error.

Reports vary.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] ttabbal:
Just don't get too used to AP + root. Google can update SafetyNet at any time to prevent it. It really just depends on them and their priorities. If the banks and such decided to push the issue, it would get fixed fast. I suspect everyone is distracted with the holiday season right now. I fully expect systemless root to trip SafetyNet in January.

What's going to be really annoying is if companies start using it for DRM. The first time that happens to me, I start flying the Jolly Roger.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] MrBrady:
Good analogy there. Love it and I have the same sentiments.

I'm enjoying AP + root while it lasts, knowing it's only temporary.

no it is still possible with themes, i just know some people didn't like it built in. and figured might as well change it for now. [MENTION=4603975]daveyannihilation[/MENTION] has made a layer for them though im sure he would be happy to post it

I'd like to throw a request out there for the next release. I used another rom that has a feature called "Smart Radio". It automatically switches the radio to 2g when WiFi is connected. Is it possible for something like this to be implemented here? My LTE signal is very iffy at home but the 2g is super strong! Really helps with WiFi battery life...
