Done a lot of testing using different I/o schedulers and didn't see any meaningful performance boost.

Using androbench to test the speed of newly formated, clean ROM with the same kernel, f2fs even had worse performance with some schedulers.

I came to conclusion that its placebo and not worth the trouble

Bluetooth Media Audio issue

I'm having an issue where the Bluetooth Media audio checkbox is unchecked after I disconnect from a paired device.

The N6 was connecting to the paired device and playing media audio as expected after I installed the latest version of the ROM.

Now I have to go to settings for the paired device and manually click the Media audio checkbox.

I have removed the device from the phone and added it again but have the same behavior.

I'm running 7.1.1-20170215 / kernel v 3.10.40

[Nexus 6 Android Development] RandomPooka:
Might as well just wait for the next release, honestly. You would need to clean flash to it anyway, so there's little point in clean cleaning the 3/17 build to turn around and clean flash again when the newest release drops.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] desann:
Its a nice rom but I have experienced laggy, unsmooth behavior after some time of usage. Full reboot helps (soft doesn't). It act like performance is running on ECO battery saver mode. I'm speaking about R26 build but not only this one, problem was there even before. I'm curious if anybody (or all of you) have also observed that, or I'm an only one... Maybe some advice what can be wrong?

Im running a clean install.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] velishka:
I'm in the same boat here. After some time of usage the ROM was a bit jittery. I am on vanilla right now, trying f2fs. So far so good. It's been only couple days but feels a bit snappier. Try it.

You're right, it's a nice rom but I've faced this issue too, also my battery timing is so ****ty, sot of barely 3 hrs

I think this is the case with every ROM out there. I have used until now PN, LOS, Resurrection, Stock and Nitrogen and has been always the same. But, after some time, after all that flashing I keep coming to this ROM, cause it seems to me that it's more stable than the rest. I don't think I will change anymore though, PN rocks :good:

[Nexus 6 Android Development] BeansTown106:
Okay guys the time is here, finally 7.1.2 for purenexus officially released!!!

a couple things to note:

*the rom is now signed with private keys starting with 7.1.2 this is good for security purposes, but you will be required to clean flash this build, going forward you can dirty flash as long as it is an official release

*i have removed the built in gapps for "nexus devices" i however will not respond to any bug reports using open gapps, use the newly made BeansGapps alongside purenexus for the best results!!

*this release mostly is focused on stability and getting all the features from 7.1.1 into 7.1.2 without issues, next release will be geared towards going over the feature request section of the g+ community

ok, Lets get to the goodies!!

04/23 PureNexus Shamu Update is Live!!!

[Nexus 6 Android Development] nathanchance:
FAQ and installation guide are up to date! Few things to note:

GApps are no longer inlined BUT Beans GApps are the only ones that are supported. Any bug report with Open GApps will not be accepted.

A clean install is REQUIRED for this release as we have switched to private keys. Future official releases can be dirty flashed but unofficial builds and other ROMs can no longer be dirty flashed.

Enjoy!

I'm guessing since Google didn't do a 7.1.2 factory image for shamu there's no new radio or bootloader either. :(
[Nexus 6 Android Development] espionage724:
Here's what I did so far:

Enabled OEM Unlock (I'm coming from stock)

Rebooted, unlocked bootloader

Flashed F2FS-compatible TWRP, rebooted to recovery

Formatted data, rebooted back to TWRP

Wiped everything, rebooted back to TWRP, wiped everything again, rebooted back to recovery

Flashed Pure Nexus, Bean GApps (full), FrancoKernel, and Magisk in that queue order (I think I need Magisk for Android Pay?)

Formatted Data and then Cache as F2FS

Rebooted

Went through Android set-up wizard (interestingly enough, Android "knew" who I was and automatically placed my email address, not sure if it's a Project Fi thing or what)

Downloaded Magisk Manager, downloaded the zip through that, went back to recovery and flashed it, rebooted afterwards (guess it needs flashed after the other zips to install correctly)

Enabled Hide Root, tried adding a card on Android Pay, can add one without issue

Just one question; if I dirty-flash the next Pure Nexus build, will I have to re-flash anything else above (specifically, GApps, FrancoKernel, or Magisk)?

On a feedback note, everything is super snappy. I thought stock was pretty good, and even LineageOS, but this is a whole new level of fast :)

Also, did you use Franco's r66? I usually just stick with the built in kernel but wanna give Franco's a chance.

Gonna get all my 'experimenting' out of the way since this new release requires a clean install.

Do you have to use this version of TWRP even if your not running a custom kernel ?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] espionage724:
The official TWRP for shamu doesn't support F2FS. If you plan to use the traditional ext4 filesystem for data and cache, this isn't a problem. If you want F2FS on those partitions though, you'll need the custom TWRP. For other ROMs and kernels, you'll also need to make sure they both support F2FS.

I'm not really clear about ext4 filesystem vs F2FS and whether i even need F2FS or not ?

and was looking for some advice direction is all
[Nexus 6 Android Development] espionage724:
Someone a page or two back reported they didn't really notice much of a performance difference between ext4 and F2FS. Theoretically, F2FS is better for SSDs and NANDs though. On the other hand, ext4 is tried and true. Not sure if it applies to Android devices that only interface over MTP, but ext4 also has more tools available for data recovery.

Basically, it's your choice as to what you want to use. I went for F2FS because... why not :p I'm also kind of bored of ext4 and just opt to use something else on most of my devices anyway (I use XFS primarily on my Linux machines).

I was under the impression that it took place during flash, because that is when the the forced encryption would take place. But, now you have me wondering.

[Nexus 6 Android Development] str8str:
That's correct so how do I make it so it don't encrypt on flash
[Nexus 6 Android Development] rebel1699:
I may back up my roms and test tonight to see at which point it occurs.

---------- Post added at 10:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:53 PM ----------

Easiest way is to not flash a kernel that forces encryption. Thats all I can say for absolute certain until I test to be 100% sure.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] buffal0b1ll:
The buddy I have who was burned twice by flashing a stockish ROM after decrypting, says the he saw a "Device is Encrypting" pop up, after boot animation and before sign in.

Also said that he read many others say that if he'd flashed a custom no-enforce kernel before booting, he'd have been fine. But he volunteered that he'd never had the chance to prove that concept again because never went back to an enforcing kerneled ROM.

If you think about it, the existence of str8str's no force encrypt script suggests that encryption is probably done at boot.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] str8str:
OK you guys got me a little confused. Lol. To confirm the encryption takes place while it's flashing so the kernel has to be on the rom first it's too late to flash the kernel after the rom like we do when flashing kernels cause by then it's already encrypted
[Nexus 6 Android Development] JRJ442:
No the encryption takes place after boot up. If you're unencrypted...and you accidentally flash a force encrypt kernel/ROM, after the boot animation and before sign in you'll see it say "Encrypting Data." I've done it twice by accident. Lol. You can flash a force encrypt ROM, and then immediately flash a non force encrypt kernel before bootup and it won't encrypt you. The encryption is controlled by the kernel, which only handles everything after you're out of recovery.

http://kryon.smugmug.com/Purenexus/i-bRKJdsk/0/O/OPERATIONPNbanner5x1.png
[Nexus 6 Android Development] rebel1699:
Thats what we are discussing. Whether the encryption takes place during flash, or after boot. He says after boot, and I was thinking during flash. He could very well be right, and I wrong. Hoping a third person will chime in before I test, lol.

OK lol glad I got you guys using your noodles, I tally'really can't remember

But more importantly, what the heck are you flashing that doesn't have a decrypt kernel in the first place?

[Nexus 6 Android Development] angourakis:
Since you started fresh very recently, install a kernel that does not force encrypt (I am not sure if the one included in the ROM offers it, although it is mentioned in the features box) and wipe your data again.

You will be decrypted the next boot =)

If you prefer to stay with Pure's Kernel, try to wipe your data after the ROM is installed and check if the encryption is gone. To check, just go to Settings -> Security and see if the option "Encrypt Phone" is available (if it's grayed out, it means you are still encrypted).

Good morning! New update is running great for me. I have a few questions, I may have missed it in my reading. Does the stock kernel support F2FS? If not which kernel do you recommend? Thanks!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] angourakis:
I think it is the combination of everything:

Pure Nexus + Franco Kernel + Swift Black theme + screen resolution @ 720x1280 + density @ 246 + Adaway + Naptime

Inside FK Manager, I also do a bit of undervolting (-50), but it will depend on your phone's processor and I also select the following options at Battery life labs:

- "Underclock the CPU" (remember to enable the switch to remember the setting)

- "Underclock the GPU"

- "Lower max brightness @ 60%"

Since I don't game on my phone, I really don't see any downsides to the settings I choose plus my phone runs cooler and buttery smooth (because of the changing on the screen resolution and density).

Ah! I'm team F2FS =) It will not help with battery, but it helps keeping the phone lag free.

Your mileage may vary based on your usage and settings!

Best Regards,

Rafael

---------- Post added at 11:52 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:50 AM ----------

Yes, it does now. Remember to use a custom TWRP (see The Flash's signature. There's a link to them).

I use Franco Kernel, which also supports F2FS. Take a look at their threads to get more information.

I think it depends on Google. Pure Nexus has nothing to do with it.

I always choose "Setup as new" and I always go through reinstalling all my apps from Play Store (which was much better before when we could select all the apps we want and hit install when we're done), connecting to WiFi again, etc.
