Yea unfortunately this is same/similar results from my previous two clean flashes. At first I thought the sole culprit was the battery, and after replacement/another clean flash I was hoping for better results. Unfortunately we're a couple months after the replacement and while the battery is doing fine, the phone is just turning into a festering pile of garbage. Now I'm just waiting on PN Oreo since that will force another clean flash anyway, we'll see. Either way I have very little hope.

oh yes i love dem ff speakers on my 6p !

yeah nowadays most smartphones are just cloning each other..

the new trend ? it is.. Bezel-less screens -.-

let's hope pixel 2 will not mimic that new trend *sigh* i much rather have some space on both top /bottom for some good dual speakers!

will hold out as well if the pixel 2 does not come with dual speakers as i have grown very fond with mu ff speakers (and v4a doubles the sweet sweet sound from it).

well here's hoping there will be ff speakers on the pixel2.

if not , i will hold onto my 6p (till it breaks, or something like that haha).
[Nexus 6P Android Development] JokerAce:
Alright, although it didn't worked for me when I placed it in /system/app, you may wanna try that. Instead of priv-app, you place it in app. And keep the same permission.

You may also want to try other explorer options. I recommend root-explorer. I am guessing that the Mixplorer may not have the function to ensure that the permission sticks on reboot.

Try these two suggestions out, all the best mate

[Nexus 6P Android Development] AlphaGolf:
I have freezing issues too man. I'm gonna clean flash soon. Just waiting for the Oreo build to come out. :/
[Nexus 6P Android Development] ithorien:
So I ended up doing a factory flash to Oreo... I thought about it, and the last time I ran a stock rom was back when Motorola's Droid X was hot ****, so I felt like I'll see how it runs just for the sake of seeing a stock rom in action.

Bootloader remaining unlocked though ;)

There will be no estimated time of arrival (ETA) from the team.

Thanks. Ehhgg, buy ANOTHER file explorer? I may just suck it up and live with the notification.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] KennyG123:
Android O is out. Go grab a copy of the stock O and install.

If you are asking about PN...it will be out 10 minutes after it is completed and uploaded. Don't ask, don't tell!

AS for the other comments, poor replies don't help in this thread. Better to ignore anyone who asks such questions and they will get the message that there is NO answer.

Friends DON'T let friends ask ETAs....

Remember, every time a user asks for an ETA, a unicorn loses it horn, and a pixie gains 10 lbs prohibiting them from flying.

So, if you don't care about being selfish, or being rude to the dev; do it for the unicorns and pixies!

No one loves a hornless unicorn, or a flightless pixie.

I remembered a great app I used to use that let you get rid of notifications permanently, one by one, specific notations. Took hours yesterday searching to find it and I did.

Installed it, went to look for the Upgrade to 8.0 notification, and bam!

Requires Xposed.

DAGNABIT! Now I remember why I didn't have it installed anymore.

Any other known file explorers that will work well for that? I've paid for a few over the past several years.

Okay, found one and got it all working.

I used the same root explorer/browser they recommended here in #5.

http://www.droidviews.com/disable-ota-notifications-android-devices/

I also didn't have busybox as I haven't had anything call for it for some time.

So for others that were wanting to get rid of the OTA nag...

Follow the instructions there, installing busybox from the play store and then launching busybox (and installing the binary after opening it). Make sure you give both Busybox and jrummy's Root Explorer root permissions.

I deleted the old copy of FOTA.apk I put in the apps-priv folder and copied/pasted the new one in there. The permissions were right, but UNCHECKED, so I had to check them each twice (the boxes were highlighted, but not checked, one tap to unhighlight, then one to check it), backed out when done, and then rebooted.

No more OTA annoyance.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] MatthewRobinson:
Getting random reboots on the latest build. Any reason why? I flashed the usual way with command prompt.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] slaydog:
The latest build? I think somebody else would have reported that by now, lol

You must have booked something...
[Nexus 6P Android Development] sharadbajla:
I have been getting some reboots since the last 3-4 months and I realized it is probably cause of the battery issue that our phone has become infamous for. For me it happens while I am on a call or if I am doing some heavy multi-tasking.

Its not that often so I ignore it but I am planning to get my battery replaced soon.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] KennyG123:
Well....if you flashed this on your Pixel XL, that could be one reason :p

If you indeed have a 6P you are talking about then it could be a sign some of your processors are failing. Final sign is bootloop of death.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Aswin08:
Flashed with command prompt?!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jwrezz:
If this is in the wrong place, let me know or delete. Just wondering if I can flash (dirty or clean) from PN to the latest stock 8.0. Thru twrp, or terminal. I'm suffering horrible mic issues still. I tried the magisk mic fix. I think the phone may be physically broken. Like some thing got into one of the mics or something. But want to check if the latest OTA offers a fix.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Einwod:
Better to download and flash the factory image using the flashall.bat command. This will wipe your device which is recommended going to a new build. Backup what you want to keep.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] ithorien:
This right here is the answer and the route I ended up taking. Pull the entire contents of your internal storage before doing this.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jwrezz:
But it'll work with unlocked BL, and twrp? I figure root/magisk won't.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] AzraelsKiss:
Full stock images flash just fine with an unlocked bootloader. Flashall will overwrite TWRP with stock recovery. Root, Magisk and everything else not stock will be gone.

Have a good one!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jwrezz:
OK, what about flashing it THRU twrp? I'm guessing since the recommended way is to do the flashall command, that twrp has no way to get this done, well correctly any way. I mean if I could, I'd of course do it with a clean flash and wipe every thing, but this question seems ridiculous since it was already stated that the stock rom and the flashall command automatically puts in the stock recovery. Sorry, thanks for all the help!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] MatthewRobinson:
Lol I use PIXEL XL & LIL PIXEL. I gave my GF the 6P. I hadn't updated it since May and finally updated it to the latest build.

Flashed vendor in ADB, wiped in TWRP, flashed rom/gapps, and flashed vendor again in ADB. It never random reboot until I recently updated.

Stupid Shutdown Issue

Sorry if this is off topic

Hi there my Nexus 6p has been experiencing the shut down issue since the last 2 days. I'm in Canada and i've heard that its the cold and a bad battery. Accubattery is showing my 95-100% battery health. I'm considering replacing the battery myself as i'm way out of warranty.

The funny thing is it happened for one day and teen it didn't happen for the 2nd but then it happened again yesterday and i can only turn it on when i plug it in the wall.

A bit more info: I've been using PN for the longest time now, i switched to stock O for a while sometime ago to see what the fuss was all about and then i switched back to PN latest build and default PN kernel and started experiencing the random shutdown since 3 days.

I'll try putting stock O just in case if that works for a while since i get the battery (i know its not an OS issue) but you never know.

Also can someone recommend a site where i can buy a good battery from? Thanks a lot
[Nexus 6P Android Development] turboencab:
I'm starting to believe at least one cause of these shut down issues is an "un-documented feature" of Accubattery. My 6P is approaching 2 years old, battery life is still pretty good and no shut down issues at all, but was curious what Accubattery would say about my battery's health.

First time my battery hit ~20% after installing Accubattery my phone shut down. This was several days after installing Accubattery so I didn't immediately make the connection. However after uninstalling Accubattery AND after one charge cycle my phone is back to normal, no more shut down around 20%.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] mikeandjaimie:
As the battery degrades, which it does with these phones FAST, it will start randomly dying. As mine started dying it would normally shut down in the low 20s, but if I took a picture when it was in the low 50s, it would immediately die as well. Think it's not just about the capacity of the battery that degrades, but the draw the phone can pull from the battery as well.

I replaced my battery about a month ago because it was now shutting down no matter what, once it got into the 30s and the camera issue would happen if it was even in the 70s. Talk about a pain in the ass.. I use my camera 8 or 9 times a day to snap pics of scenery or just a flyer for an event/sale as a reminder. Funny thing is, accubattery shows this new one at 106% health steadily, so I guess I got one better than my original, which was at 98% when I bought this phone new.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] CYoung234:
That would be pretty funny in an ironic sort of way if true....
[Nexus 6P Android Development] turboencab:
Yes indeed! Would love to see a few more people try this. Maybe just a fluke on my phone or could maybe prevent some unnecessary battery replacements.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] CYoung234:
I just replaced my battery a month ago, as I was having problems with shutdowns, particularly if I used the camera f the phone was below 40% battery. It is like a new phone now. Battery life is much much better. And no shutdowns. I have used the camera with the phone under 15% battery with no trouble.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Az Biker:
I used Accubattery for nearly a year before I started showing any symptoms, and I know MANY people use Accubattery without this issue.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] KhaMoustafa:

Can you tell me where you ordered the battery from?

I'm looking into this:

https://www.esourceparts.ca/index.php/cell-phone-parts/huawei-parts/nexus-6p-parts.html

These guys don't sell the parts with the battery but what i've heard the parts break easily so won't matter anyways.

Don't want a knock-off so taking my time in finding something worthwhile.

Thanks
[Nexus 6P Android Development] mikeandjaimie:
Actually, I got my work done from a local place in my town, 90 CAD and it's warrantied for 90 days. They were just a whole in the wall place, but they had a killer rating for everything they did.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] wmills:
Do an eBay search for Cameron sino for nexus 6p. I found it thru XDA forums. It's fantastic . Went from 68% health in accubattery to 94% health. Doesn't bother me when I get around 20% now. No more shutdowns. If you also follow the charging rules of accubattery and do some reading on the pouch lithiums you'll be able to cycle them properly and get even higher ratings on accubattery. Apparently it is not good to charge them all the way to 100% and I am guilty of that.

By the way how did we get started on batteries in the pure nexus rom thread
[Nexus 6P Android Development] _Drifter_:
Never used that app, and my phone shutdown at 20%. RMA replace, screen, battery, board, usb port.

It's a hardware problem, at Huawei RMA the staff confirm that is an hardware problem with the Battery/USB circuit.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] sharadbajla:
I don't think Accubattery has anything to do with it. I installed Accubattery long after I was already having the phone shut off at around 10-15%.

The shut down is often triggered by the CPU usage I think (or might be the heat). So if using the Camera, or doing something processor intensive, it always shuts off earlier. Recently, it shut down at 40% for me. Extremely annoying.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] SightSeeker:
I am on my 2nd refurb. I replaced the battery in the first refurb and it still started shutting down. And yes, if I left my phone in the car on a hot day and tested by trying to take a picture, it shut down every time.

After I got my 2nd refurb, accubattery said 86% so I just bought a new battery and replaced that one too. The battery this time said build date 2017 instead of the old on that said 2015 I think. So far so good after a month.

Too keep thread on track. Thanks for all your hard work OP. Patiently waiting for PN before going to 8.0. (F5, F5, F5, F5, F5, F5, F5, F5........) :)

[Nexus 6P Android Development] epoch555:
In Canada, I got my replacement battery from this ebay seller. Really fast shipping, and the battery is great. Accubattery shows it as 105% of OEM after 3-4 months of heavy use.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jac6695:
Since we are on the battery issue and somewhat off topic, I have 2 Nexus 6p's. One bought last August and I dropped it and shattered the display in October. I replaced it with a used 6p that the original owner bought right after launch. Well it has all the symptoms of a bad battery but maybe worse though. Random reboots, lots of "stuttering" (for example when I open the Google search bar and start typing, it takes ~10 seconds for the words to actually show), some lag even if I close all apps and reboot, and just overall not as "snappy" as it was.

My question is should I just swap the battery out of the 3 month old phone with shattered screen, or swap the good screen into that phone from the older phone if I have a hardware issue going on that the newer phone might not have? I guess this pertains more to the BSOD issues than bad battery.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] azrael888:
You need to replace your battery (which isn't the easiest thing ever mind you) period.

I took mine out and it was a crumbling mess. The lithium they used was subpar at best.

Buy the tools and a battery or take it somewhere.

The problem is never going away until you change the battery.

Also, don't get a refurb. SSDD.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] stefana888:
When are your phones baught having the battery issue? Maybe newer phones doesn't have it.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] madmuthertrucker:
I got a local shop to change my battery for $45. $25 for the battery which we pre-ordered. $20 to put it in. He was having trouble so I told him there is a guy on YouTube showing how to do it. It didn't take long after that. I think heat was what he was missing and a couple screws. It's the stock battery and works like a charm.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Mavrag:
My 6p was dying at 20% so I ordered a battery on aliexpress, opened it up as per instructions on ifixit, took me about 20 minutes with the tools. That came with the battery. It's not as simple as some phones but it's not really hard like some of the phones I opened up before. Now the phone works perfectly from 100% all the way to 0%
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Face_Plant:
If you want your new battery to last, I don't recommend draining the battery to 0%. See these posts for more information:

Did you replace the battery? My month old Cameron Sino has done the same thing 6 times, happened today. Plug USB power in for one second, resets the CS overload IC. Then it works until the next time it doesn't. The latest batteries use an IC instead of thermal breaker, and temp sensor.

---------- Post added at 08:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:29 PM ----------

Good question, no logs, the cheap battery abruptly cuts power to the device. They saved a nickle, and a dime.

---------- Post added at 08:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:33 PM ----------

Mine died two hours ago while snapping a photo. My CS battery occasionally cuts power to the device on high current draw. Reset the battery "protection" IC by plugging in USB power for one second. Then the device will start normally on battery +75%, and work fine until the next event a day or two later.

Hi, I want to give this rom a go but just want to make sure I’m doing things correctly.

I’m currently running Oreo build OPR6.170623.019, I’ve recently unlocked the bootloader, installed twrp 3.1.1.0 and rooted with Magisk 14.0.

It’s been a while since I’ve tinkered with a Nexus device so I have a couple of questions. With regards to the vendor image, I’ve seen it mentioned that you have to install the ‘latest one’ when flashing Pure Nexus…. would that be the latest one for the build of the custom rom being installed and not the vendor image from the latest stock Oreo build which I’m currently running, is that correct?

Also, I have a twrp nandroid backup of my current stock rom, backing up system/data/boot/vendor, I did research this and there was conflicting opinion on whether ‘vendor’ needed to be included in the backup - which leads onto my next question - if I decide to restore my backup (Oreo) after trying PN (Nougat) would I have to restore ‘vendor’ from the backup or just check system/data/boot?

Thanks in advance

They don't because OT is allowed in this thread. There's no current release to keep the conversation going, so long as the banter remains friendly; then it is allowed.

My battery life has been trash as well. I purchased mine from jet and Google told me to contact Huawei. I definitely won't be purchasing a Google phone in the future. I'll look for a device that has developer support first; if I can't find that, than I think I might try Apple for once. Google support is absolute trash. Granted, Apple would cost more. I'm willing to pay more for a device that lasts more than a year. Especially not having to deal with China for a warranty issue.

You don't have to deal with chinas warranty if you bought it from google.
