The only one I see that is useful, in my opinion, is no need to patch SELinux. But it's a bit negated if you run a custom ROM, as they include the required changes in the Kernel and Ramdisk. If you are running a stock ROM, the systemless root option is nice as it avoids those issues and if you inadvertently flash the stock kernel you can still boot.

It's not that I don't think it's a good approach. Just that I don't see any real advantage for a custom ROM user like most in this thread. The ROM has root, just use it. It doesn't really matter which way they did it. If Beans decided to go systemless on the next version, I'd say the same thing. Just use it, switching to the other method doesn't really do anything for you. The down side for custom users is that now any kernel they want to flash needs to have implemented it. Right now, we can just flash most any M kernel and it just works. If the ROM were to use systemless root, we would need to make sure kernels we used did as well or used a patching system like AnyKernel to install to keep those changes. Granted, you just lose root in that case, it's easy to fix. And if someone wanted to run Pure Nexus without root, they could easily do so.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] russlowe73:
Because if you use Franco Kernel you have to use systemless root in order to use the newest kernel.

No but I will look into it. I don't use emoji so I never thought of it. I use actual pictures.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] chuddler:
I just Dirty Flashed 20151219 and the "stale" download notifications are re-appearing. :mad:

Any ideas on how to get these to stop showing up? Thanks!

UPDATE:

Seems to have fixed itself after installing 20151219 and dismissing the download notifications a couple of times.

Thanks for the input!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] oldman_58:
Do a clean install and see if you can replicate the issue, if you can capture a log file..

Sorry it's the only thing that comes to mind.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nathanchance:
In case anyone was curious, I updated the install post here with the new info from SuperSU 2.64 (what it means for systemless root basically). Please let me know if there is any other information you think would be useful in there.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] kwdan:
Looks like you have "don't show notification on lock screen" selected in sounds & notification
[Nexus 6 Android Development] gothy.gothy:
In the VERY GOOD installation guide mentioned, you specify at point 7 to flash the most recent vendor image

"7. Flash ROM and GApps zips (and the most recent vendor zip if you did not do step 3 above or are not on it already)."

The vendor image in the link is for Angler. Do I have to flash it for Shamu also? There is not any compatibility?

Thanks for the guide, man!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nathanchance:
That moment when you link the 6P guide in the 6 forum.... :( lol hold on let me edit that. The 6 doesn't have a vendor.img to flash.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] gothy.gothy:
I thought so too :)
[Nexus 6 Android Development] bostonbassman78:
Lol
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nathanchance:
How Beans runs six threads is beyond me, I'd be pasting the wrong info all over the place lol. Alright link is corrected and info should be correct!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Torqd505:
At least you didn't crown the wrong Miss Universe!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] rbedell:
Lmao I just posted in the wrong thread. I feel like a dork that y'all were just talking about it. Here is my problem maybe someone can point me in the right direction...

I'm on the previous release. I can't seem to update busybox, no space available. Error mounting system, busy box on rails fails too. Any ideas? I'm trying to get layers to work again.

I found some articles here and there about repairing and resizing the system partition in TWRP but it fails as well.

I figured it was a -rw issue to the system partition. It happens when I flash busy box in TWRP, mounting system, I even went into the mount area and checked it to be sure. I haven't had luck mounting with a terminal app, says invalid argument when given the command.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] phil737:
Fi help

Maybe include some "when" and "why" info on flashing the Google Dialer for us Fi newbs. Do we need to reflash when "doing the dirty"? etc.

And thanks for all the time you put into this thread and for the patience you exhibit.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nathanchance:
Yeah I can add that, I'll put it in the FAQ. You will need to flash it every time, clean or dirty because it doesn't get backed up like GApps. I think Beans said he has to remake them every update but I don't know if he meant Pure Nexus update or Android update.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] K-alz:
Could anyone please tell me where the system tuner is? I looked in pure nexus settings/notification drawer and it is not there.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nathanchance:
Pure Nexus Settings > Notification drawer > Select and order tiles for Quick Settings tiles

Pure Nexus Settings > Status bar > Status bar icons for customizing status bar icons
[Nexus 6 Android Development] bryantjopplin:
Download the app and grant superuser and try to remove it. I would try and verify its removed and then a reboot and try to install it via stericsons app. I'm assuming your using team tricksters?

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=stericson.busybox
[Nexus 6 Android Development] rbedell:
The one that came with the ROM and the on rails one from the play store. I'll try that.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] bryantjopplin:
Another question you using systemless root?

---------- Post added at 09:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:59 PM ----------

If you are, busybox needs to be in /su/bin.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] rbedell:
I was using everything stock, including the pre rooted, no multi ROM or anything. I'm going to start over fresh, download everything tonight and reflash tomorrow at work. My su says installed to xbin.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] bryantjopplin:
Then your busybox will install to /system/xbin

You probably don't need to fully reflash everything.

Here is a busy box cleaner

http://www.mediafire.com/?rmiq1mjimez8k8m
[Nexus 6 Android Development] rbedell:
The cleaner ran without issue, opened busy box and told me I had the same version installed lol. Its OK, I'm well versed in the flashing world and can do it with ease, just getting used to layers is all...
[Nexus 6 Android Development] bryantjopplin:
What's wrong with layers?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] rbedell:
Nothing applies, it applied once and the I tried to change it and never again, so I read it might be a busy box issue. So I tried to cleanup and update busy box but started to get errors with everything I tried in the OS and in TWRP.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] bryantjopplin:
Mine also says no space available in the app but still installs. Have you removed all the layers in the uninstall tab?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] rbedell:
They don't show installed, the install fine but nothing happened after a soft reboot or hard reboot.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] bryantjopplin:
Did you wipe cache or the layers app data by chance or delete the backups?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] rbedell:
No if I wipe caches in TWRP then I get google play service force close related to google play music. I get an error when I install to either location with busy box.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Beefvvl:
I tried this and also tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app and still have the old emojis.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] jlmassey:
Thanks! Just got my nexus today and this was the first rom I'll be putting on it. " as we speak " All my devices are rooted and flashed with 3rd party roms. GOTTA HAVE THE FIX MAN! Thanks for everythang
[Nexus 6 Android Development] clnzx2:
Works fine for me. I have all the new ones with the google keyboard.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Beefvvl:
Man I dunno what I did wrong. I did a clean install and everything and even disabled AOSP keyboard and uninstalled my other keyboards and can't get it to update to the new ones.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] StephenSpig:
Got a weird error when trying to access the App Permissions... It said Package Installer has crashed or something along those lines...

On the 12/19 build, CLEAN flash...
[Nexus 6 Android Development] K-alz:
Thanks. It was the second one that I was looking for.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] lukegman:
I use busybox pro. Press smart install. Drop down menu appears. Enable smart install and clean install. Updated
[Nexus 6 Android Development] jberry711:
Anyone have alternatives for naptime app I can't get notifications while it's running
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nathanchance:
The aggressive doze in both Greenify and Naptime can cause issues with notifications, just due to the nature of doze. Doze should only be used when your phone isn't being used since it limits when you receive notifications and information because it is assuming you won't be using the phone for a while (if it has been lying down for an hour).
[Nexus 6 Android Development] NOSTALGIA:
no issues with naptime.. im still getting regular notifications..
[Nexus 6 Android Development] jberry711:
Groupme, FB, IG are the main ones that don't show until I wake the phone
[Nexus 6 Android Development] vsot13:
For those who wants 5 rows aosp keyboard with new emoji.

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BzVGZbmJo3ntZ19NU3l6dXZPOFk/view?usp=docslist_api

Just copy/ paste in your system folder and reboot.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] franatic08:
Anyone know why aosp gallery's editor is not fully functional on PN?

I ripped it from another ROM, pushed the apk and libs to /system/app and set permissions (rw-r--r--) to all files.

I don't get fc but not all editor options are functional.

Any ideas?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] technut:
Just a guess but maybe you're missing a lib or 2 for controlling the functionality.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] franatic08:
Could be, but then those libs weren't in the app folder.

I already found another Gallery2 which does work 100%. Only downside is, it scrolls vertically instead of my preferred horizontal scroll.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] enzoevo:
Ok is it normal for the radio to switch from LTE to HSPA when making a call? It takes for ever for the dial to go through. I'm in AT&T and 32r radio.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] franatic08:
Yes.

Unless you have carrier supported VoLTE.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] RomsWell:
If you do have volte and lost it after updating your radio. U just need to re enable the volte flag in the hidden menu. Click it once and reboot.

Any chance to get Quick Pin Unlock back again in the latest release? Thanks for the development.

taPpEd fROM my nExUs 6
[Nexus 6 Android Development] githyanki:
Perhaps, until that happens, try pattern unlock.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] jberry711:
Alright fam here we go again. Random shut downs .. Flashed to the 12/19 update total clean flash only using rounded layers and navigate for navbar customization. Not using naptime greenify nor xposed. Also on stock kernel. I had this issue before the last release as well with various kernels. Tried a couple suggestion from the community and nothing helped. Any ideas??
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nickoArd:
Wich kernel do you recommend? im using Elemental X
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Admiral2145:
Benzo core is great for me
[Nexus 6 Android Development] wolfen69:
Elemental X is working great for me. I love the swipe to unlock feature.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] chipis:
You guys know what kernel is included on the latest release?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nathanchance:
It is a stock kernel with a few minor modifications.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] iamjimmy:
Could you please bring the quick pin unlock feature back in future release(s)? It was definitely one of my favorite features as well. Makes a big difference IMO.

Wasn't there an option to disable this feature in the settings. So if the feature is disabled by the user then it should not cause them to get locked out. Can the quick unlock be problematic even when disabled? (In short: why was this feature removed?)

I think it should work for Sprint too since it's Project Fi compatible. Did you flash the Google dialer .zip?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] oBL00DHANDo:

Sprint WiFi calling is not available yet for nexus 6. It is on lg g3 and maybe other devices but not yet on nexus 6. :)
[Nexus 6 Android Development] oBL00DHANDo:
Okay didn't know if the WiFi was for just ROM or carrier thanks for the info
[Nexus 6 Android Development] wrongway213:
Hmm.. usually in my experience the only reason stickmount will work when native USB-OTG won't is unsupported file type, common in Windows to format drives over 32 or 64, can't remember, gb, into NTFS. What format is it, getting any weird errors, etc? Able to read/write on StickMount, or only read?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] orlzzt:
Carrier + device. I have T-Mobile for work, on a Nexus 5 and I can't get Wi-Fi calling yet.

Zero problems with stick mount. Ive done TB restores. Ive flashed a rom from the sdcard in twrp 2.8.6.0 and 2.8.7.1

Im going to reformat the card and see if anything changes, currently exFat.

I guess I'm the only one who got a continuous system ui force close after a day of use. Clean install and I used recommended gapps... Hmmm. Wish I would have grabbed some logs but I was at work and had no time before restoring a backup... I will try to reproduce the incident and pull logs this time. Hopefully it doesn't happen again. No, I wasn't using xposed, viper, or anything that didn't come stock with this build. Stock kernel as well.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] bmwh0r3:
7/13 build has issues. You can dirty flash the 7/14 build. Several pages ago it was discussed and beans fixed.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] stebomurkn420:
Sorry. I thought the build was 7/13!!!!! Hahha. Thank you though. I skimmed through the last couple pages just to see but this thread is blowing up so fast its hard to keep up on work days... ;) thank you though. I will try not to litter the thread any further with troll like experiences. Lol
[Nexus 6 Android Development] wrongway213:
You're perfectly fine bro - this isn't like other threads where you have to read every page first and if you miss something people get mad.. seems to me general consensus is more just "be nice to others' and all is well in this thread - and everyone is nice to one another.. funny how that works but that's a topic for another post lol

[MENTION=5964313]wrongway213[/MENTION]... Did you have the Samsung charge running dwitherells builds? Tweakstock, I think it was?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] wrongway213:
Nope, used to have an S5 running Beans's Alliance, other than that this N6 is the only phone I've ever rooted - just got hip about a year ago.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nathanchance:
Yes, it will come back, it just has to be reworked. It was removed because people were getting locked out of their devices when their PIN was a certain length. It is a very poor software design practice to have a feature that doesn't universally work included with the reason it is an opt-in feature. A feature should be expected to work for everyone without any issues. I agree it is unfortunate but just give it some time.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] iamjimmy:
Makes perfect sense. Thank you.

Did you see any improvements in the 12/19 vs 12/09 build? I am wondering whether the 12/19 has enough features over the 12/09 to justify losing the quick unlock.

My current setup is the PureNexus 12/09 release + Elite Kernel 12/06 release. No problems at all. The Elite Kernel apparently solved the battery issues I had been having with the ROM alone.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nathanchance:
I really like the additional quick settings tiles personally. All of the other stuff is mostly under the hood improvements and it is running smoothly. Check out the changelog. If your setup is solid and you don't want to lose that feature, then you may not want to upgrade.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] iamjimmy:
Thanks and makes perfect sense again. I might just hold off for a bit until the next release.

Which kernel do you typically use? Have you had any experience with hellscore or Elite on the Nexus 6?

BTW I've noticed that you do help a lot of people around here by answering their questions. Thanks for all the effort you put in. It is much appreciated.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nathanchance:
I use ElementalX personally. I have used both of those and I think they are solid. I chose ElementalX because I really like [MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION] and the performance and battery life have been the best out of all of the kernels I have tried. Plus the ElementalX Kernel Manager app is probably the best designed app I have seen in a while.

I appreciate the kind words, I enjoy helping out :) feel free to hit me up anytime you need anything.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] iamjimmy:
Thanks. I will definitely try out ElementalX. I've heard good things about it.

Do you tinker with a lot of Kernel settings? Are there any (in particular) that you would recommend.

I generally leave everything at stock except enable dt2W, increase sound, decrease vibration intensity and enable USB fast charge. I've tried to change color levels, but for whatever reason, it makes the screen look even more horrid.

BTW just saw your location. I had worked in AZ for 4 years (mainly in the Phx-Scottsdale area though). Brings back nice (especially warm) memories after having moved to the frigid midwest. Haha.

Keep up the good work. I am sure a lot of users in this thread thank you for it.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nathanchance:
I don't really mess with settings too much. I enable sweep to wake every direction but left, decrease vibration intensity, and change color. Everything else I leave as is. I change governors occasionally but I have always come back to the ElementalX governor. Buttery performance with solid battery life. Funny enough I messed with the color control for the first time yesterday and I had no idea I was missing out. I like it so much better now.

I lived in Scottsdale until I started going to ASU, quite familiar with that area. Lol I know, 115 summers are not my cup of tea but I love the area. It is a nice 52 out right now so other end of the spectrum.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] iamjimmy:
Thanks. Is there any particular color profile that you are using? What are your settings, if you don't mind me asking. I had tried to use the color settings in a post where someone calibrated their display. With those settings the screen saturation was way worse.

I'm guessing I did something wrong.

That's great. ASU is a solid university. Two of my colleagues went to grad school over there and had nothing but good things to say.

The area is definitely nice. I know the summers suck, but IMO dealing with close to zero tempratures and shoveling snow sucks even more.

I miss the winters of AZ and the low cost of living. Might get back there at some point in the future.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] mooch530:
I've been using this ROM since the end of November when I rooted my N6. This ROM is so stinkin' smooth and solid! I run it on my N6 and N7 2013. I've dirty flashed the past few updates (ROM only) and have had no problems, no reboots, no nothing except a solid smooth ROM. [MENTION=4395895]BeansTown106[/MENTION] and company you do amazing work!

Has anybody else found a large decrease in battery life since 0.1? I was getting great life before the update, 2 days easily. Since the update I can barely get a day. It's not staying awake and it's not an app or of control. It dozes fine but any use and the battery takes a nose drive.

[Nexus 6 Android Development] Formhault:
I'm gonna be quick. But this has been driving me nuts today.

Am on the latest build (clean flashed it, actually). Running Elite kernel, but doubt that has anything to do with what I'm about to describe.

So... I set my phone on vibrate mode. A few minutes later (30 minutes, 60, I don't know!), I hear it ring, on the lowest volume. I check it... and indeed, the ringtone volume is set to 1/7, although I've set it to vibrate.

This has happened multiple times throughout the day. Not sure why?! Ideas, anyone?!
