Go to the call log, long press number, block.

Or menu (in phone app), settings, call blocking, add number.

This is for the google dialer. Unsure if aosp dialer even has blocking. Google dialer is in the play store or open gapps. I don't recall which was included in bean's gapps.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] F350-6:
That wasn't working, but I got it figured out. Neither the long press or menu gave me the option to block the number. Went to the dialer app and drug it to app info and for some reason under phone app, it said none. When I selected the app for phone app, those options appeared again.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Lawlrus:
There's your problem. Reading those threads and taking anything with a grain of salt.

Half of the people are haters because of the price, and a good many more are people with their tin foil hats on too tight. I've seen pictures of the device and it doesn't look nearly as bad as people make it out to be. I personally don't care about other peoples opinions. If I get it, and don't like it, then I'll return it. I'm not going to base any purchase or cancellation I make off of random people on the internet lol
[Nexus 6P Android Development] mikexda:
I'm going to the vzw store tomorrow to personally hold it my hand. That is the only real test. Reviews are all about people wanting to find something to complain about. If Nate is supporting it, I'm all in!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Lawlrus:
To hold a live unit? Some people have already stated the demo units are not like live units
[Nexus 6P Android Development] mikexda:
Haven't heard that. Can't comment. Regardless, going. Obviously not buying there. Come home and order form google.

My color perception isn't the best anyway, so I probably couldn't tell the difference anyway. As long as it is clear and crisp, that works for me. :)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] pvtjoker42:
I went to a vzw store last week and played with the 2 XL when they first put it on display, I didn't notice any weird color changes like the videos i've seen but i wasn't looking for it either. Was just seeing what the device felt like in my hand, and how responsive it was to any and all inputs.. Side squeeze, screen taps etc. Once i come up with an excuse to feed the wife, i'll be picking one up.. :laugh:
[Nexus 6P Android Development] mikexda:
Lol. My wife knows me, it's going to happen. And she accepts that's just the way it is.. Gotta have my toys. This is why I have 2 Harleys in the garage. And why I'm about to drop $1k on a new toy (phone).
[Nexus 6P Android Development] RED ZMAN:
Don't forget all the other people that now want this phone to fail because it doesn't have a goddamn headphone jack. The childish behavior of people these days of all ages just drives me bat****.

That's exactly what I did. My wife and I got one and checked it out for quite some time and are super excited to get it in hand.

I highly doubt they're going to spend the amount of money it would take to create a different one just for demo purposes.

Besides, it would have to be a different model number and passed through the FCC. There's already been tons of looking at them and it's the same model number.

Not to mention, how many times you looking at your screen from those off angles? If I'm not looking at my phone head on I'm not looking at my phone.

Hearing you say this having first hand experience, makes me feel all warm and fuzzy about getting mine next week :D

Best case, I love it, worst case, I return it (save $1,000) and ride the 6P for a while longer.

Really it is a WIN -WIN no matter what :)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] RED ZMAN:
Exactly.

Woot!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] matique:
My brother just received his pixel 2 xl. The screen does look a little desaturated but only compared to other oled displays like the nexus 6p or the Samsung S7 ( his old phone). Compared to LCD displays it's actually about the same. I'm pretty sure custom kernels with color management will fix it. It's an amazing device and I can't wait to receive mine.

I already have the sony wireless buds arrived to take care of audio.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Sirnyancat3:
For some reason my device will randomly reboot and start "blah blah vendor not matching please use NMF26X vendor image". I have checked and NMF26X is a nexus player image. What should I do?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Badger50:
If your on the last PN build, which should be August, flash the 48c vendor.img. How the heck did you do that to begin with?

Scratch that, it's the July build, 48b should be the vendor.img.

Which is here. https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=961840155545579678
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Sirnyancat3:
Installed Magisk a couple days ago and all hell broke loose yesterday.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Badger50:
That still doesn't make any sense. But then again, not many things do at times.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Sirnyancat3:
I also just realized my fingerprint sensor isn't working. Do you think flashing the .IMG will fix it?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Badger50:
Possibly. I would dirty flash the rom and vendor again, boot up, and see if things are working again. If they are, then go back and flash root again.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] matique:
Try flashing to stock image. If your fingerprint isn't working still it might be a faulty connection on the sensor. Luckily it's a cheap replacement. Good luck.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] juris.korotkovs:
Flash correct vendor image
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Sirnyancat3:
Dirty flashed PN, still not working.

Flashed PN .IMG also didn't fix anything.

What should I do now? Uninstall magisk?

Edit: Uninstalled Magisk. Now asks me to flash n2g48b vendor img
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Badger50:
Go ahead and do that. You may even have to go back to stock factory image to get the FP scanner to work. Even then, it still may not work. That happened to me not long after I got the device 2 years ago. Sometimes **it happens! :eek:
[Nexus 6P Android Development] xflowy:
could someone enlighten me, why recently every time i click on a picture in my google dialer app speed dial tab just nothing happens? :)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Badger50:
Been somewhat of an issue on 8.0. Go to your contacts that you have set as favorites, and set the default number again. It's especially noticeable if you have more than one number for a particular contact. Which of course, most of us do.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] xflowy:
though i got the issue in nougat before as well :l

also, the only contact which works is the one with more than one number ;)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] C5Longhorn:
I've had my 2 XL since Thursday evening. The washed out screen complaint doesn't bother me and I think Google will release an update so folks can add saturation if they want.

The blue off axis color is noticeable on white backgrounds and the jury is still out for me.

I really like the phone and it's a natural replacement for the 6p, but a $1,000 is a lot for a phone with the off axis issue.

I'm going to use it for a week and then make a decision.

Rick
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Badger50:
Then maybe clears the app cache and data, and then reset the default numbers.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Sirnyancat3:
Flashed it and everything is back to normal! Should I reinstall magisk or just leave it?

Hi.. Is there anyway we can disable fingerprint reader vibration?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nathanchance:

[Nexus 6P Android Development] Az Biker:
Ok, forgive the ignorant look on my face. If the radio isn't included in the rom, how am I'm getting great reception if the stock radio is bad? Or is it just the lack of 4G that's the main issue.

I promise, after a month, no more dumb questions :)

Btw, my batt life, at least overnight is the single best I've ever had on any device! Went to bed 100% at 1230am... Got up at 730am, still at 100%.

Even if batt stats are useless, it's the best useless stat I've had :D
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Turgur:
I need help. I'm getting the "The Start Android, enter your pin." when powering on the device. It does not give me a keyboard to enter a pin, all it says is Emergency Call and that's it. Is there a solution to this that doesn't involve restoring to stock?

What's your setup? Cause on mine I get some strange drain which I didn't have on stock 6.0.1. Still trying to figure out cause wakelocks seem the same with stock rom.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] micmars:
It seems as if you have no working keyboard.

If you still have access to TWRP, go into recovery and do the following...

This will at least get you past the lock screen. As to why you are unable to type anything, I'm unclear, but you may be encountering multiple issues. If yes, I suggest you backup your internal memory, just in case you have to start from scratch.

Since I have already flashed the latest PN, should I still update to the 2.50 radio in fastboot? Again, sorry to make those who know this stuff inside and out cringe. I'm on day 2 and absorbing as much as my old brain can :p

Kinda basic set up I guess, only my 2nd day running PN on new 6P...
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Turgur:
Thank's for your help. Still stuck at it. I suspect it is because my default keyboard is Swype. Any idea if there's a way to change your default keyboard from TWRP? I already deleted Swype, but did not work. I have google keyboard loaded, but it's not default.

[Nexus 6P Android Development] Az Biker:
What are the kernels that play nice with PN?

After searching the thread, and reading the first 50 pages, I can not find anything on the process for flashing kernels, or radios (angler 2.50) ...

I've been on the Note 3 for 2 yrs with no kernel, no radios, no vendors, and no twrp!

In TWRP, wipe, flash rom & gapps, reboot, flash kernel, reboot, flash latest vendor?

Is there a stickie or a post that already has all this laid out?

This is all basic stuff, and I apologize for not being up on it all.

I.CAN. NOT. READ. ANOTHER. 50. PAGES. TONIGHT. :D

Thanks in advance!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nathanchance:
ElementalX, Kylo, and AK all play well. Franco has a bit of a special process but it still works. You can flash a custom kernel whenever, you don't have to to do it right after the ROM and GApps. Just flash the kernel in TWRP over the Pure Nexus stock kernel. Radios, you can flash over each other without issues.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] slick97477:
So I am the latest release of Pure Nexus and on the elementalx kernel. I am having a very odd issue again. I can't stay connected to my Wi-Fi. It connects for about 30 seconds then resets and reconnects over and over. I am also on the latest bootloader and radio as well. Have verified it is not my Wi-Fi access point or router. Other Android devices and other computers are connecting and staying connected. Have already wiped cache and dalvik cache thinking that might be the issue but it's not. Have installed any new apps over the last few days so not sure what is going on. Any ideas? Have rebooted the Wi-Fi access point too, but no results so far
[Nexus 6P Android Development] malybru:
Radio , bootloader , and vendor are flashed via fastboot.

You have Heisenberg's guide in your signature , and here is another:

I had to call 911 the other day for a neighbor that flagged me down and it didn't work. It just did nothing. I went home and used my house line. I searched the thread and see this popped up elsewhere. I didn't see a solution anywhere. I am on the latest build. Just want to let the devs know.

Common problem with custom ROMs.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] conundrum768:
Like the other reply said this is a common problem with custom ROMs (unfortunately).

Anyone having this issue in the US can follow the instructions found at: https://www.911.gov/using911appropriately.html to find out the local protocol for testing 911 calling capabilities.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] KennyG123:
I have been unlucky enough to have to had call 911 twice and had no problem each time. Perhaps it is your dialer or whether you have selected it as default.

I am using Google Dialer and it is set as my default.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] SightSeeker:
Is the app just called phone? That is what I used. Whatever is stock with PN. I am using PN kernel too. Everything works fine. Didn't dirty flash the latest. I have been rooting and installing custom roms since the droid X days. I don't have anything weird going on. Just latest build and my usual apps. No themes or anything extra.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] SyCoREAPER:
Can also confirm/second using Google Dialer as my default and have had no issues calling 911.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] KennyG123:
Do you have it set as default? Both AOSP and Google Dialer are called Phone but there is a little color difference in icons.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] SightSeeker:
I only have the blue one installed. In the app store it shows Google one is installed.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] KennyG123:
And did you set it as default in settings? Apps>Gear icon>defaults>Phone app
[Nexus 6P Android Development] SightSeeker:
Yep blue icon. I uninstalled the latest update from the app store and updated it again. Maybe just a fluke. Hopefully whatever was going on goes away when I put 8.0 on.

Funny side note, the person who flagged me down to call 911, got locked up lol. Way to go stupid.

I have to call 911 regularly here in NM with my commute, always works.

I have the same problem in Australia, where our emergency number is 000. I can't dial it, as soon as I press the send button the phone just does nothing.

I have found dialling the number in the full international format fixes it, eg for me +61000 or for someone in the USA, you could dial +1911 and the call should connect.

So while we patiently wait for the next PN, do you guys think all the features will make it to the first Oreo build? I mean, I waited months before upgrading to Nougat so I'm not in such a hurry but just thinking that, if Beans is taking his time for this release, it may actually have a lot of PN features already?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] rdeets:
Just stopped by Verizon and Sprint. Played with the V30, V30+, and Pixel 2 XL. The v30s looked perfectly fine with a grey image and minimal brightness (granted, I was in a retail environment and could not replicate the same conditions of a dark bedroom... I'm sure it's more than possible for the screen issues to show themselves in a darker environment).

I opened up chrome on the Pixel 2 XL to download the grey image... And I had to stop right there. I'll let the image speak for itself.

I heard a bunch of bad things about the 6p when it came out. The hand wringers are going to wring their hands. Let's face it Galaxy & iPhone have the best hardware. We have unlocked pure Google. And PN!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] cswithxda:
I've actually ordered both 2 and 2 XL. Can't wait for a month (and two for XL), so I went in to a Verizon store to check them out. They were just okay to hold, with 2 being less okay, until I wandered by a sprint store and saw essential phone. That's how Pixel 2 should look and feel like, even with that front cam dibble!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] mswal2846:
I'm not sure about all this about Pixel 2. I received mine last Friday. Yes, it's smaller than the 6p which is what I wanted. I constantly travel (every week this year, 4 cities this week) so I needed something that would fit in a shirt pocket without feeling like a brick; the Pixel 2 works . I needed a phone that I could use without having to find an outlet at 3pm. The pixel 2 is lasting more than 24 hours with solid use. It's about 10 hours if I have to use it as a Hotspot all day. It even came with an adapter that let me use my wired ear buds with mic. The screen is quite comfortable to use.

In short I'm happy because it does what I need it to do. You have to decide what you want out of your phone then go for it.

Oh and, someday, I will be able to run PN!

SightSeeker, can you test the above with your current build? Mine works for calling 911 the normal way, so I'm not sure a test of that method would be valid. If it works for you on the same build that calling 911 didn't work, then I think I'm going to save that number with the extension to my address book just in case...

I just wanted to post for my own clarity...when PN8 drops, we will need to flash to stock Oreo before moving to PN correct? Or will we be to go from the latest PN directly to PN8? I'm thinking about flashing stock Oreo in preparation if this is going to be a necessary step. Thanks for the insight!

[Nexus 6P Android Development] leondestiny:
can that be said for other roms too ?

when i first went for Oreo i first flashed stock img with cmd fastboot and everything was fine.

i was on Oreo and downgraded to Nougat some week ago and i missed the snapiness oreo gives, so i decided to flash oreo again, but this time i did not flash stock img (because it wiped the whole storage) and just went ahead and flashed the bootloader/radio and vendor for oreo and just did a normal clean flash.

i think the only problem i got is distortion in my speakers with v4a.

i did not have the issue when i flashed stock oreo img /then oreo rom.

could it be that i better redo the flashing process now ?

even though i am already on oreo.

thanks.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Az Biker:
Since I have no personal experience with this process, I defer to those who do.

I just posted the 'warning" because it's been posted many times before regarding the topic.

Wish I had the answer you are looking for, but no doubt someone in this thread will.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] aostrom:
How sure are we about this?

Although the note you're pointing to MAY be correct, note that it is about going from PN to the Oreo preview. I think we should wait until PN 8.0 is ready and see what instructions Beans/Nathan post. In the past we've never had to fall back to a factory image when installing a new major version of PN when you're running a previous version, and I would think that's the goal for the next release, too. Of course, loading a factory image isn't going to hurt anything.

I don't see how discussing other roms is inconsiderate while this rom is in hiatus (I mean, latest build was released over two months ago, I understand Nate is busy and I'm not complaining in any way, but it's been made very clear that off topic conversation is more

than allowed). Given that, I don't see how discussing roms is inconsiderate on a rom development forum....
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Az Biker:
So you're talking to a Chevy salesman, and he's working on a quote for you, and while he's working on it, you start asking your buddy for the directions to the Ford and the Nissan dealership, right in front of the Chevy salesman, while he's putting together a deal for you.

It doesn't make you a criminal or an ogre, but it is inconsiderate. That's all I'm saying.

There's a difference between OT and Rom shopping in someone else's Rom thread.

It was just a suggestion, out of respect for Nate.
