I have Nexus 6 + Pure Nexus Android 7.1.1. I have blocked google.com with OpenDNS. Android seems to be using it to check if wifi is online. I am now wondering is there some way to change that? If i have to decide do i want to keep google blocked or use wi-fi on my phone i must decide to keep google blocked because of many reasons. If someone have idea how to change that google.com to some another page would be very helpful. Wi-Fi is saying "connected but no internet connection" when google.com is blocked.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
App info only appears with system apps, and if I recall, it's been that way for quite a while now.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] ktmom:
I guess I'm confused. Are y'all talking about these screenshots? The first is pixel launcher, the second Nova Prime (my default launcher).
[Nexus 6 Android Development] djcsurf:
Using latest PN release as always (clean) sweet as can be.

Edit: deleted :)
[Nexus 6 Android Development] pcrussell50:
can you boot into the bootloader? sounds like you might need to pick a stock rom and flash back to stock, flashing longhand, not using TWRP, just to rebuild stock file and partition structure. get back to totally factory stock... then start over with TWRP and PureNexus and follow the clean flash instructions... to the letter...

[Nexus 6 Android Development] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
Yes, though I probably have things backwards. I just tried Maps, which is installed in system, and it didn't offer to display the app info. In fact, on Nova, NONE of my apps offer to display app info. I only get the option to remove the app from the screen.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] ttabbal:
One thing to note when that happens, all network traffic is sent over cellular. It's incredibly annoying that it doesn't at least use the LAN for local addresses. It's also annoying if you have mobile data caps. Just FYI. I'd love to disable that check entirely, but haven't found a way to do so.

[Nexus 6 Android Development] jpierce:
I had the same issues as you, trying several roms that claimed they had Wi-Fi calling and none worked until I was told to set up e911. You do it online or through My T-Mobile app. Google T-Mobile e-911 and you will be on your way. It was what activated it for me.

No, it doesn't, not for me anyway.

I think it's a bug that came it way back with an update from Google.

Some N6s (like mine) have the problem, others don't.

I've never found a solution, so if you do, please let me know!

Both of mine do it. And one is totally stock on 7.1.1/May17 and the other is the current 7.1.2PN and rooted. The stock one has been doing it for months. Not sure when, but maybe since the release of Nougat.

Hey guys,

I was wondering if I can dirty flash the latest version on top of the Feb version? Been busy and haven't been regularly updating the rom on my phone.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] dahawthorne:
No. The April release was signed with new keys, and Beans specifically says a clean flash is required. I can't copy/paste in Labs, so look for the word "keys" and you'll find it easily enough. After the first clean flash you can dirty flash subsequent releases.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] DSDONE:
Magisk is the best!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Markeee:
Why is Magisk best ?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] dahawthorne:
I've used both, currently use Magisk, and from a root perspective there's nothing to choose between them. I switched because of a perhaps irrational worry about official ownership transferring from Chainfire to a commercial company, and I prefer an open-source solution. Personal choice.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
Magisk can be hidden, but that doesn't necessarily make it "better" than SuperSU. Each of us will define what "best" is. For example, [MENTION=6161558]dahawthorne[/MENTION]'s reasons for using Magisk make it "best" for him, while for me the question of ownership re: SuperSU doesn't play a role in defining "best".
[Nexus 6 Android Development] S0UTHPAWK1LLA:
I'd consider a couple of questions also, Which is open source? Which is now owned by an largely unknown entity in China?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
The ownership horse has been beaten to death. It's a non-issue for me, as I paid attention when Chainfire mentioned it. The only thing that matters is if it meets my needs. Should it not, then I'll switch.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] cujo6801:

Hey guys!

I just installed Pixel launcher "version O" but now i'd like to roll back to the original Pixel launcher, which is in the Pure Nexus ROM. What is the easiest method, to do this?

Thanks in advance!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] bitemeoftn:
Just dirty flash the ROM :)
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Tobekos:
I just did a dirty flash, but the launcher remained the same version "O".
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
How did you install it? If you installed it as a normal app, go into Settings > Apps, make sure system apps are visible, find the launcher, and uninstall the update. What was previously recommended only works if the update was flashed to the system partition.

Because of these last posts about Pixel Launcher, I found a way to activate the rotation on the home screen!

[Nexus 6 Android Development] JRJ442:
You could always go into data/apps, find the package name that sounds like the launcher and delete it with a file explorer. Reboot.

Normally Disable isn't greyed out. It's that way probably because you don't have another launcher installed. If you did, you could tap Disable and then you'd see a pop-up that asks if you want to return the app to the factory version

Quick question here. What radio is recommended for this ROM? The one I flashed when I was using LOS wasn't giving me very good reception when I switched to PN so I flashed the latest factory radio image from Google and it still seems like my reception is poorer than it was when I was using LOS. Any tips or suggestions?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] CA3iR0:
Only you can say which radio is best for you. It deppends of where you live, the number of antenas in the area, ...

Using the root-enabled file manager of your choice, drill down to /data/app/com.google.android.apps.nexuslauncher and delete the folder. Reboot and, if successful, the Android O launcher should be gone. Otherwise, a factory reset may be in store for you.

The ROM should have no effect on the radio signal reception.

Back in pure Nexus 6.1.1 the dialer had an option to enable loudspeaker when the phone proximity sensor is not activated ( not on ear). Is it possible to install the old dialer?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] JRJ442:
Do you use Tasker? There's a simple Tasker profile to do the same thing. That way you don't have to mess with installing an old, unsupported dialer.

Is there a way to get the notification light to Blink? I'm using the Blackbird kennel, I had read it had that capability I just haven't figured out how to do it through there. I've also installed Light Flow but still it's not flashing maybe I'll try another restart.

Can I use camera 4.3 by Google by using this ROM?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
The hardware doesn't support blinking. The paid version of Lightflow I believe allows you to emulate blinking in software, but it's not recommended. Setting the LED to blink will increase battery drain as the blinking requires the device to remain awake.

LightFlow didn't work well for me at all I been using LED Blinker Pro it gives you way more control of your notifications it allows you to use your screen instead of just a blinking LED

Bootloader and Radio image for nexus 6p

I'm currently on AOSPA 6 (Android 6.0.1) and want to flash this ROM. I'm following installation instructions from here

I think I need to update my bootloader and radio to the latest images, but it's not included in the instructions here. May I know where I can find the images for this ?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] ktmom:
My Bad [emoji87] I'm on 4.2

You can get twrp flashable zips for the bootloader and many radios here. Else you could download the latest google factory image and fastboot (only) the images from there.

The radio doesn't have to be updated. It's your choice. Which works best for any user is conditioned on several factors including carrier and location.

Double check you are on a current (latest) TWRP. If too old a version, you'll have trouble. It's a good idea to keep it current though.

[Nexus 6 Android Development] RandomPooka:
You absolutely MUST wipe system when doing a clean flash. There are several different scripts installed by various things that backup and restore apps from one flash to the next. If you wipe system before flashing the ROM, those scripts can't do their hocus pocus.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] DigiMD:
same here. I did the trick above. will see how it performs over the next few days
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Gysper:
To fix Bluetooth drain, you have to do the following:

1. System Apps, clear data/cache for Bluetooth Share and Bluetooth Mida

2. Disable instant tethering in Google settings

3. Clear bootloader logs by holding own the power button while the phone is booted into the bootloader and the BP Logs is selected
[Nexus 6 Android Development] wooddale:
I was told long ago that wiping system is a waste of time because most ROMs do it for you because of issues mentioned above. I don't know if I was lucky or what but I had no problem and didn't do it. Thanks.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] ktmom:
I'm not intending to criticize your comment. I want to add to the thought by pointing out that the time to wipe system is negligible, particularly when compared to bumping into a problem. A clean flash does expect system to be wiped.

Automatic bluetooth pairing doesnt seem to be working on may 9 release, I'm prompted for PIN again everytime the device gets in range...
[Nexus 6 Android Development] wooddale:
I'm good with that my only question is does the ROM do it automatically? I know I read that it did but can't find where. I almost think it was the Flash that said it. If not I apologise to him. I'm just curious because I never do it and never had a problem. On the other hand I don't have a kizillion apps on my phone. It's like years ago they would tell you to wipe three times which made no sense either. It was like saying it didn't get it right the first time which we now no isn't true. Thanks
[Nexus 6 Android Development] DigiMD:
Thank you Gasper! I followed all the steps, except the last one did not work for me. I'll do some research to make it. At least, solution #1 has failed. I will give the steps you provided enough time.

Try deleting the pairings on both the phone and the device and then pair again.

[Nexus 6 Android Development] ktmom:
It's true, most ROMs include a script that wipes system. Even TWRP refers to that. But, here's the thing, glitches happen. Every device is not identical. Many people get away with dirty flashes, or relying on the script to wipe system. But see this quote:

IMHO, it is much less annoying to do the wipes myself and allow the script to perform a second wipe. Even on PCs, it possible to encounter a situation where deleting files isn't complete. I suspect the old advice to wipe 3 times before flashing is based on ensuring there is no remnants to interfere with the new flash. This type of advice helps prevent situations where a user complains about a problem, is asked to clean flash again but doesn't want to because they're sure it was done right the first time. This thread has many posts where a complaint about function is ultimately solved by a fresh clean flash.

Hi guys, I accidentally wiped all my data while installing the new software. Is there a way to roll back? I did make a backup in recovery, could it make it happen?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Pkt_Lnt:
You can restore just /data only in TWRP. Be cautious, if you updated from 7.1.1 to 7.1.2, or from the recent 7.1.2 build, that restore will contain /system data that will almost certainly break something since Beans changed build keys.

If you restore a twrp backup, it will be a full system image. No matter which ROM you have installed, if you restore a backup you will continue from the exact point when you did the backup.
