Vibration on call pick up and decline not working

Using latest PN. Clean flashed with latest Beans Gapps. Vibration on call connect and call disconnect seems to be not working. Anyone else facing this issue?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] honda kos:
Clean flash latest pn and beansapps with flash kernel.

Charging is quite slow for me. From 49% to 98% in 1.5 hours. Is that normal?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] leondestiny:
thanks will defintely try, though after i did a full charge for the first time after i had flashed PN yesterday.

now the battery drain is perfect.

What is lost by clearing Play Services data? Anything important or a hassle to re-enter?

Hey guys, so my fingerprint reader no longer turns the screen on, how can I fix that?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] neoKushan:
So I also noticed the wakelock issue and cleared Play Services Data (make sure you clear Data and not just the Cache), rebooted - got the backup account prompt and figured I'd try exchange again - guess what, it's all there now. There's definitely an issue with the play services data, clearing it seems to fix things beyond that wakelock.

I'd just thought I'd post this here in case anyone else encounters the same Exchange issue I had.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] xosinchan:
After a "format data" and changing file system of Cache and data (to f2fs), I flashed latest PN, flash kernel and beansGappsmini. Now, there's a visible delay in app launches and once, the app loads in RAM (when you open an app then open another and jump back to the previous one) it isn't there. So, what I think that there is something wrong with reading from and writing to storage now (after converting to f2fs). For now I stopped using my phone and started to search a solution instead. I'm looking for some fix to this [MENTION=6842057]The Flash[/MENTION].

PS: such situation is evident with all apps, and the reason why I deducted that it is something related to storage and not network(because some apps use network resources when launched) because, even Wordweb app(which is an offline dictionary app) takes longer than usual to launch. It is certainly not an improvement at all.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] MrMiami81:
I cleared data and cache. No issues whatsoever
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Lawlrus:
You're on the correct vendor? It's working fine here using pin for the lock
[Nexus 6P Android Development] neoKushan:
Yeah my bad, I wasn't clear. I meant make sure you clear Data and don't click Clear Cache thinking it's the data. I nearly made that mistake, so I thought I'd point it out.

Pretty sure clearing data also clears cache anyway.

Do I need to update the bootloader from 3.58 to the latest to update our Nexus to the latest build?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] fz798:
I don't believe updating the bootloader or the radio are requisite, but since a clean flash is, and since F2FS are now supported, might as well take the opportunity to start completely fresh and up to date, I'd recommend updating both.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] komidzo:
My experience: I followed the instructions in the OP to the letter except for the bootloader and radio. It would not boot past the 4 colored dots. Not even a bootloop, since it never even restarted. It just hung there for a half hour on each of three clean flashes and lots of panicking, since I had to leave for a 2 day conference 3 hrs later ( and like an idiot, I didn't take a backup)

I fastboot flashed radio and bootloader, then clean flashed again. Booted in under 5. And it's working perfectly. When the expert on PN recommends something, it's probably.a good idea to consider it :)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Az Biker:
Would you mind posting a slightly more detailed outline of the process and files you used when formatting to f2fS?

Since you successfully installed the setup I'd like to try, it would be a great resource to mimic (plus all the formatting and f2fS stuff is a bit new to me) :D

Thanks either way!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] JRJ442:
All of the documentation I've seen states to flash the ROM, GApps, SuperSU THEN the kernel that supports F2FS. Reason being SuperSU repacks the boot image improperly for F2FS, unless that's been fixed in SR4. I'd check to make sure data or cache hasn't reverted to ext4.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] templej02:
I just did a clean install of this rom with beans gapps. Google contacts sync keeps crashing constantly. Should I reinstall beans gapps from TWRP? Is there a better solution? Thanks guys
[Nexus 6P Android Development] fz798:
Of course! I followed the instructions in TheFlash's custom TWRP thread here:

https://xdaforums.com/nexus-6p/development/unofficial-twrp-3-0-3-x-f2fs-support-t3543450

You're going to use the custom TWRP to "repair or change file system" and choose F2FS for both /data and /cache (each one separately).

Note, in TWRP settings, when formatting as F2FS make sure the "use RM-f when formatting" is not checked, but then when flashing the ROM, turn it back on to ensure that flashing the ROM does not revert /data or /cache to EXT4.

I am experiencing ridiculously fast and smooth performance on this ROM, with F2FS, and the Flash kernel (default kernel settings)

Hope this helps!

I think this could happen if you don't have the TWRP setting "use RM -f when formatting" unchecked during ROM flash
[Nexus 6P Android Development] JRJ442:
No, you only need that when restoring a data backup that was made on ext4. I've been running f2fs for months now without that setting. Clean flashes and all.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] fz798:
OK I thought I saw some cautions about that setting
[Nexus 6P Android Development] JRJ442:
The only thing it said was you need it checked when restoring a data backup through TWRP. That part is in Flash's conversion steps.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Az Biker:
Absolutely perfect ? thanks for the prompt reply and outline! I'm like a kid in a candy shop waiting to get home and do this!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] PunkUnity:
Clean flash. No keyboard. Flashed a keyboard zip in TWRP, shows up in settings, will not let me toggle it. Can't sign into Google, etc. No browser either. Tried multiple Gapps packages. How do we get a keyboard to work? All I get is voice typing.

---------- Post added at 08:35 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:29 AM ----------

No browser or file manager either. Making it very difficult to install anything.

Are you using BeansGapps?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] xda4ck:
Hi All,

I am facing an issue with latest ROM, in the pure Nexus status bar settings, I have enabled time display. But the display gets stuck and doesn't show the current time, it just shows the time when I had enabled or made some changes to the status bar time setting.

I searched for any reports of this issue in this forum but didn't find any, can anyone please confirm if they are facing this issue and if there is any fix identified?

Thank you beans for the amazing ROM and flash for the kernel.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] borxnx:
What do you mean "enabled time display"? The clock shows in the statusbar by default. In statusbar settings you can move the clock around and enable the date and/or show seconds, but all of this is working flawlessly for me.

Did you completely clean flash, including bootloader, radio, and vendor? Are you using any other mods besides just PN 7.1.2 and Flash kernel? The more info you can provide about your particular setup the more likely someone will know what's going on with it.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] sandman1234:
Hey I see you're a senior member on XDA.

I was wondering, do you mind sharing how you maximize the use of PN?

The changes I only make are the battery icon, and centering the time on the navigation bar.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] forzawder:
Hey guys, I need some help and I hope you have patience for a newbie like me.

I recently rooted my phone, learned the process and after some reading I figured I'd try this ROM. Im very very satisfied with performance and love the features.

I've done a clean install and followed guides very carefully. I got around 3 hours SoT if I was lucky with stock and around 2 hours with purenexus. Yesterday I figured I'd take it a step further and install the flash kernel, which I did and cleared (cashed?) After and the rebooted. Now for some reason Google play services is draining the battery and someone suggested I should clear data and I did that, still draining battery. And I don't seem to even get 2 hours SoT. Any help is appreciated.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] fz798:
Many of the changes I make are by way of Nova, AdAway, Android Firewall, debloating with TB, and theming via Substratum. So really, the "tweaks" if you will are things like notification panel (I don't use pie or nav bar). For me, the real benefit is the stability and speed, and good battery (Flash kernel)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] sandman1234:
Do you mind sharing what you do with nova? I have nova prime, not much done to be honest with it.

Adaway, everytime I reflash a new rom, I need to look for the adaway zip, and most recently, the zip file was not flashable (could you link me to where you get the adaway apk)

Android firewall - whats this?

debloating with tb - Titanium backup? could you briefly explain the idea of debloating

Substratum - is this by finding themes on xda?

Thanks mate
[Nexus 6P Android Development] kakabobo:
any way to include volume tile in quick pull down?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] fz798:
Nova Prime is some of the best money you can spend in the Play Store. Extremely configurable, with gestures, swipe actions, folders, etc. I condense vertical and horizontal grid spacing to maximize screen real estate. Most cringe when they see my home screen, but I have more information on one screen than most manage in 2 or 3. My app drawer is 6 x 10 so I fit 60 icons on a screen, and still (for me) have enough room between them as to not fatfinger them. The list goes on. Been using Nova for years, too much can be done to begin to do it justice here, you just have to really dive in and start tinkering.

https://f-droid.org/

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.googlecode.droidwall.free

Stop apps from phoning home (you can do this with Xprivacy, but alas, no Xposed for Nougat ATM). Also stops some apps from getting ad content that slips through AdAway.

Debloating - removing apps you don't need. Saves space (less an issue with today's phones) but also has potential to save memory, processor and network utilization.

And Play store. I use Spectrum: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jerbeck24.Spectrum

You're most welcome, hope this helps. If so, go ahead and hit the thanks button. :)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] EMcTx:
I haven't flashed the newest build yet, but I have this issue too on the previous build. It affects both the clock at the top and my hd widgets clock on my home screen. The clock just doesn't show the current time after a few hours. I ended up removing the clock from the status bar, which I really don't like at all. The widget on my home screen now shows the correct time though. I do have the Nova Launcher beta installed. I've wondered if that could be causing my problem. I hope I don't have this same problem once I finally do update.

I am the only one that faces slow charging issue?

Latest PN with beans gapps and latest flash kernel, clean flash.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] borxnx:
Are you using the stock charger and cable?

Also, is it actually charging slowly (have you tested it using something like Ampere that measures the current?) or is it that the battery indicator is not increasing?

Does the reported level of battery power jump after a reboot? e.g. leaving it powered on while charging, look at battery percentage, reboot phone, it displays a new percentage?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] honda kos:
I forgot ampere to tell the truth.

% of battery is the same after reboot.

But, stock charger is the one I use.

Once, in lock screen I saw a message "charging rapidly", "2,5 hours left"!

From 49% to 98% it took almost 2 hours this morning!

Two days ago, I was with Omni ROM and charging was not a problem.

I will check ampere though and come back with ss.

Does anyone elses phone get really hot with not much use the flash kernel?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] honda kos:
After same play of a heavy game (wot blitz) with charger on, I return after I close the game to see ampere.

Here is the result.

For me, this is major problem.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] JRJ442:
The chipset reacts to temperatures too man. The higher the temperature, the slower the charging. You just said after heavy gaming. I'm sure the phone was pretty warm charging and playing a game.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] galaxy s4 nutjob:
I hate to be cynical can anyone confirm the WiFi calling feature works? I can't tell
[Nexus 6P Android Development] honda kos:
Thanks but.... Not really.

I didn't notice any temp on my phone.

It does make sense what you say, but it's not the first time I charge my phone and do heavy use.

I strongly believe that something is going on.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] drewski_1:
have you tried different charger and/or cable? i've found cables to be the culprit behind funky charging issues.

and sorry for being dense, but what is your mA draw at a particular point supposed to tell?

what did you see vs. expected? did the battery level drop while playing & charging? remain the same? did you expect it to be full when you finished?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] borxnx:
In your first test it shows normal Nexus 6P charging speed, pulling 11.3 watts.

In your second test it shows decent charging speeds at nearly 8 watts, faster than any phone charging at the standard 5V 2.1A charging that most devices are rated for.

What I believe you're failing to consider are the inherent flaws in Ampere itself. It does not measure "true" current, rather it estimates (keyword: estimates) NET current. That is current IN minus current OUT (current out is whatever amount of power the device is using for processing, screen, etc.). Hence why you'll never see 15 watts (5V, 3A) even though that's what the device is rated at.

Since it shows *net current* and not true current input, it's likely that after your gaming session your test occurred while the processor was still revved up, so it may well have been charging at the normal rate but Ampere showed it to be lower because it displays the difference between the charging current and the device's power usage at that moment.

Your kernel settings (especially the governor) have a LOT to do with what Amere will display for your second test. If it's not ramping down cores quickly enough, your net current will be lower than when the phone has been asleep.

Here's a real test: after a gaming session, set the phone down for 5-10 minutes. Then plug it in and check Ampere. Let Ampere measure the current for 60 to 90 seconds, don't just look at the first number it displays and think that's an accurate reading. Multiply the amperage displayed (the big number on top) by the voltage used, then divide by 1000. This will yield the wattage.

Anything around or over 10.25 watts is the normal charging rate that Ampere will measure for our phone. That would be 2500mA, 4.1V.

Electric current crash course aside, I have been experiencing the same charging rates as always on this ROM, and also I'm pretty sure if there were actually a problem other people would have mentioned something by now. If there were an issue with your device, it's more likely due to user error or a corrupted download than the ROM itself. But it appears to be functioning perfectly normally from the evidence you've provided.

I don't have that option mine is in the dialer under settings>calls>WiFi calling but I never get a notification that it works. I'm on project fi
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nomesrjp:
That's perfectly fine, the option appears in the dialer too. I used to be on project fi and didn't have issues with WiFi calling though I've never seen a notification.

If you want to test it, disable your cellular network. Click on airplane mode, wait a couple seconds then click on wifi and boom wifi comes on and your mobile network is off. The test away.

Many thx [MENTION=418212]beans[/MENTION] [MENTION=6842057]The Flash[/MENTION].

This ROM is flying in combo with flash kernel and converted to f2fs. Was a bit tricky as I did the conversion for the first time and was also getting a bootloop but it's worth it all the way.

Just read correctly and be furmilair with adb!

I did a clean install AND restored a Nano (f2fs) backup successfully for testing purposes.

Thx again guys.

PS: I saw some comments that the conversion to f2fs and speed difference is NOT noticeable, I can tell then you did something wrong as the gain in loading speeds is really obvious.

F2FS also sticks after rebooting ;)

[Nexus 6P Android Development] Lawlrus:
??? By switching the file system, it wipes your internal, that's why you have to back EVERYTHING up on the computer and move it over to your SD card once done.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] ad_slev:
Yes that I am aware but it was not happening when I tried to move it over :confused:

Once it wipes the internal

How do move it over then ?

If internal is also wiped ?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Lawlrus:
Plug it into your computer, the computer will install the phone driver, and you move the files and folders over. Just like with moving any file onto your phone via a pc

By wiping internal, its only going to remove the contents of the sdcard folder.

[Nexus 6P Android Development] Az Biker:
I followed the instructions and additional resources found HERE.

The process SOUNDS more difficult than it really is.

Back up all your important data to your PC (I just copied the sdcard, and picked what I needed after the clean install)

Put all the needed files on your PC in a folder (Flash's kernel, Flash's TWRP, new PN rom, Beans GApps, latest vendor image, SuperSu/Magisk, any mods)

Follow the instructions, and it's really easier than you think.

Since I am not the most android savvy user, I like having step by step instructions to follow. I plan to make a very detailed step by step with a bunch of resources, once I get home today.

The whole process really is a walk in the park, but I understand how daunting it can be for less savvy users like myself.

BTW, the difference IS noticeable. My phone doesn't jump out of my hand, but you can tell the apps open faster, the screens shuffle snappier, it is definitely an improvement.
