I am at a loss. Sounds like maybe you need to flash the latest stock image, see if it works there. If so, then wipe system and dirty flash PN to see if the issue returns.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] GrndSers-Rcng:
Did all that yesterday... Issue still there...
[Nexus 6P Android Development] KennyG123:
So you do not have the issue with stock?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] GrndSers-Rcng:
No...

Just got on the latest PN release. I'm not a fan of the giant white Google search bar on the home screen. Am I stuck with the big white search bar on this launcher? I miss my pill/weather look.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Az Biker:
Use Nova Launcher...
[Nexus 6P Android Development] shinobi26:
Isn't the PL supposed to come with the pill/weather? I've never seen it with the giant white search bar.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Az Biker:
I've always used Nova Launcher I haven't even tried pixel
[Nexus 6P Android Development] shinobi26:
I like the UI, swipe left for Google Now, App Drawer look, and pill/weather look of PL. Unfortunately I can't get NL to do all of these things the same way.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] luigidk:
Are you using always on? Do you have wear 2.0 yet?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Kortxero:
I'm with you about Google Now (API issue as explained by the Nova launcher dev), even though I don't use GN much these days. However, all the rest can be mimicked in Nova. You'll find step by step guides on how to do this on Google. As for the pill, you might want to try Pixel Pill Widget. It works like a charm here. Cheers!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] RayMcGrath:
Get pixel launcher. Team blackout has a black version. That's what I use. Check out apk mirror for stock.

Anyone having any issues with their computer not reorganizing the phone in file transfer (MTP) mode with the latest build? Trying to narrow down if it's the phone or the computer.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] DeathmonkeyGTX:
Someone said they could not get stock flash kernel to yield good standby time but I'm, this 128GB angler beenbpullingb .36/.41 % per hour standby without disabling any radios or messing with greenify or any such crap besides turning the flip gesture off
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jt1998:
No. Mtp file transfer working fine on latest build with clean install.

Maybe revoke usb connections and retry.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] RED ZMAN:
Or Arrow Launcher and Pixel Pill Widget.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Hohumhurrdurr:
Stuck on the Google screen after dirty flash update to 3/17 build.

Not sure what would be wrong. I disabled all lockscreen security, updated TWRP to 3.1.0.0, wiped Dalvik/Cache, flashed the NUF26N vendor img, flashed Pure Nexus and SuperSU. Upon reboot, the phone just hangs on the Google screen and doesn't proceed any further.

When I try to go back to recovery, TWRP prompts me for a password even though I disabled lockscreen security. Searched around a bit and tried "default_password," but no dice. Can't get the ADB sideload feature in TWRP to work either, sideloading Pure Nexus just gives an error which forces closes ADB. Since I can't mount on TWRP due to not being able to decrypt, I also can't reload my backups.

What are my options at this point? Thanks for any help y'all can provide.

Edit: Yes, I know I'm a fool for not doing a clean install. I usually do so, but figured I would pass on it this time due to Titanium Backup taking 90+ mins to restore my SMS messages. I'm just looking for an option to get my phone usable at this point.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] SGE_DEW:
Here you go:

This is what finally fixed it:

After anniversary update, MTP is not working.

I tried with different devices as well as on many PCs.

In device manager I get this:

The drivers for this device are not installed. (Code 28)

A service installation section in this INF is invalid.

I had same problem. I did the following to solve that and it worked.

(1) Go to C:\Windows\INF

(2) Type "wpdmtp.inf" in search bar provided to the right of the address bar in Windows 10.

(3) Once you found it, just right click on it and select install. It will take a very few seconds.

(4) Connect your device to the pc.

Done.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jt1998:
I had a similar problem a while back. In twrp have you tried the pin or password you removed prior to this update? If not, try that and post back.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Hohumhurrdurr:
Yes, that was the first thing I tried. 4-digit PIN, TWRP just says Password failed.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] AzraelsKiss:
If you can't figure out the decryption password, the only option would be to format userdata in fastboot. I had to do this once when TWRP wouldn't accept my old pins or the default password, so now I just keep my userdata unencrypted. Good luck!

Have a good one!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Hohumhurrdurr:
Welp, that fixed the issue. A fairly irritating (but otherwise much less expensive than a metal brick) problem, but resolved. Many thanks to you good sir, and I've learned my clean install lesson.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] sutty86:
Another user here since flashing pure Nexus coming from other ROMs I get the pin error i only ever use one pin and it's not working.

Must be implemented in the build any help
[Nexus 6P Android Development] bluetigger68:
I don't know why this or what exactly is happening there, what I can tell is that I never had that issue with any version of PN don't have it on latest either.I had it with several other custom ROMs and only thing that did the trick ever was to wipe my internal storage.

Sorry.

You probably have to flash a factory image or something along those lines in bootloader.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Bubba:
I am having that issue as well on one pc but not on laptop. I followed your direction, but when I installed the file I still get an error and the Nexus is not connecting.

EDIT / UPDATE

After several attempts of searching and downloading drivers only to have them fail, I tried the phone on another pc and it installed fine. I then copied the driver from that pc to my pc and installed manually. 6P is now recognized and working.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] HoudiniJr:
This happened to me. I just went ahead and reinstalled TWRP using fastboot and it fixed the issue. Can't remember what version I was on, but it was an older one so that could have been the problem. I would say try it out anyway if you have not already done so.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] T4rd:
Anyone having any Bluetooth disconnect issues, specifically after phone calls?

It started in the previous build randomly (worked fine for a while after initially installing PN) and I kinda assumed it was related to the Pixel BT issues that was somehow a Play Services server side break/fix. Last week I saw articles saying that was supposed to be fixed on Pixels, so I hoped my 6P would be good too, but it's still broke.

My BT completely disconnects (both media and phone) in my car after every phone call ends. Doesn't do it with my BT headphones though. My car has an old BT 2.0 head unit though and my headset is BT 4.0, I think.. maybe that's the cause/difference? Software hasn't changed in the head unit, of course.

Also, my phone's earpiece doesn't work after toggling speaker phone. This has been a persistent issue on all PN builds on my phone dating back to when I got my 6P last May. I'm starting to think this it's a hardware issue since I have posted about it here several times with no responses and even made a thread about it in the Troubleshooting forum with no responses. It's a sporadic issue though, sometimes it will work, but most of the time I get no audio on my earpiece after I switch back to phone from speaker phone or even a BT device. I have verified that the "Phone app" in the Phone app info settings is set to "Yes" as well.

Any response is appreciated.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] kcallis:
I have still not been able to make use of the finger sensor. I am wondering if I need to flash and try again, because I really need my finger sensor working. Any suggestion on how to reactivate the sensor without have to re-flash?

UPDATE: I guess I will just go ahead an clean install again. I need to install the vendor image anyway, so I am hoping with a clean install that my finger sensor will work again.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] TNS201:
I have always had random bluetooth issues with PN. Either random disconnects while playing music or laggy choppy playing of music. In my car or with my receiver.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] T4rd:
I haven't had any issues with BT other than disconnecting after calls like I specified. Other than that, streaming music on any BT device has been flawless other than when I go out of range or something.

Of course I'm doing clean installs between every iteration of PN ROM updates as well and that speaker phone issue has always followed me.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] HoudiniJr:
Yeah definitely the best way to go.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] arasky:
This might not be PN related, but what ever happened to app ops? I only used it for the keep awake permission. It would tell you X app requested to keep awake 1 minute ago, and I knew that it was a problem app. I'm finding my phone is being kept awake 100% at times and I'm having trouble nailing down which app it is. It comes up on battery stats as Google play services, but thats not helpful at all. This has been going on since the beginning of 7.0 at least so it's not something with the latest release.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] shinobi26:
Isn't Pixel Launcher what came with this ROM? Other than that big white search bar everything else looks like it. It claims to be in my Apps list as well.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Balthazard:
So I'm having this package manager pop up that's kinda been bothering me. It goes full screen and suppresses any other app I have running.

The screenshot attached is with the popup in the recents menu.

My setup:

Latest PN

Latest Flash Kernel

Latest Magisk Beta

As for mods

Injected YouTube with adblock and background playback Magisk module

Detach script to detach said YouTube apk from Google Play.

Any idea how I can manage this little problem?

Getting horrible battery life it might be my battery huwaiwei is going to RMA it and put a new battery in it for me.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Mesmurized:
When does it appear? What app are you installing? Likely a bad apk or mod
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Balthazard:
It happens at random without me installing anything. Like just now I'm chatting on WhatsApp and it just pops up.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] evilian:
how's the battery life comparing to stock 7.1.2 ?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Mesmurized:
Something is interfering. I would remove the last mod and/or app and test ... then the next-to-last mod/app and test .... and so on until the problem goes away.

My Pure Nexus ROM videos!!

I heard good things about this ROM so i thought i'd install it on my 6P, these are my overall thoughts on it.

[YOUTUBE]https://goo.gl/AZNvcx[/YOUTUBE]

Hopefully i did some Justice to it!!

Here are other videos I did on the ROM

How to install the Pure Nexus ROM: https://goo.gl/VvVkMy

Rom walk-through and features: https://goo.gl/PX0u8V
[Nexus 6P Android Development] bluetigger68:
Imo it's possible sth is downloading apps in the background and trying to install something. I suggest looking at your apps and uninstalling anything you don't necessarily need atm. Never had a similar issue on any rom. It's most likely one of you apps and def. not the rom.

Maybe you should use one of those anti-virus-thingy apps for Android to check your device.

I'm not blaming the romantic at all! This rom is rock solid! It's definitely something I did knowingly or unknowingly. Just taught maybe someone had some experience with this.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] bluetigger68:
It's not about romantics, it's about solving issues;) I've tried too many ROMs over the years to be romantic or not running into weird issues.

Was it out of warranty too?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Rootuser3.0:
Surprisedly it wasn't. I checked the huwaiwei website and it says until 2017/03/28 so I just got in on time. I purchased the phone from Best buy in November of 2015 but they didn't ask for the receipt since the website says I'm still in range according to my imei.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] mbc663:
Good luck, they are gonna blame Google and put it off until the warranty has expired. A lot of reports on /r/Nexus6P of this happening to people who dealt with Huawei. You might want to look into getting the battery replaced by a third party store which a lot of users who didn't buy the phone through Google have been doing.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] rulyskull:
Same issue here too for HP

Wow thats awful. I'm having the best life ever. Clean flash. Did you? Use wakelock detector to see if anything is happening behind the scenes...

New build installed perfectly with clean flash. Running with elemental kernel, material glass theme and Viper installed first try. Thanks for nice rom!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] opz187:
I have literally never experienced this issue on mm. and I've flashed every ROM at least twice. it works fine, it's from people making backups in twrp with secure lockscreen, then when trying to restore, they 'get locked' out of their backup. it's a twrp issue. has nothing to do with quick pin unlock.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] 1DvsBstrd:
Use Google now launcher and xposed gel settings.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nathanchance:
It wasn't just happening on the 6P or 5X, it was happening on all devices. Check the Google+ or the other threads. It appears to only happen when the PIN gets to a certain size. So no, it is not just a TWRP issue. I think it sucks that it got removed too but unfortunately if it doesn't work for everyone, it should be reworked so that it can.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] inffy:
It's happening with every device if you set you pin to be over X digits.

The twrp problem is totally different one and has nothing to do with quick unlock.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Phazmos:
Might depend on the kernel.

I know if Franco is installed, unsu/kernel/su leaves you with Franco kernel again.

But, give it a shot.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] opz187:
that blows so hard

[Nexus 6P Android Development] opz187:
duplicate
[Nexus 6P Android Development] bsg411:
So are you saying that the secure lock screen and the screen lock pin under security settings are not the same thing?

I think that is where I'm getting confused. How do you even enable the secure lock screen?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] inffy:
The kernel needs to be flashed BEFORE the SuperSu so it can patch the boot.img
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nathanchance:
Yes, they are two different things. Secure Lock Screen is just having some form of security on your lockscreen. Quick PIN unlock is a feature where if you type in the correct PIN, it automatically unlocks your device instead of making you press the okay check. I don't use it since I have a pattern instead of a PIN.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] colasante_5:
Thanks for the new update [MENTION=4395895]BeansTown106[/MENTION]!

Only problem I found is with Google Photo that causes phone reboot during photo upload...but I think it's an app's issue!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] bsg411:
Ok so for the secure lock screen I am using a 4 digit pin method.....when I make a backup and keep the pin and no fingerprint.... I can successfully restore and enter that same pin and I don't get locked out.

When I backup without any security ...the restore still asked for a pin and there wasn't one so I was locked out but now I see you can delete the lock settings.db file and get in.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] micmars:
Exactly.

[Nexus 6P Android Development] inffy:
Something is wrong. If you have pin/pattern set and you do twrp backup and restore it it will not accept the pin/pattern even if it is the correct one.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] bsg411:
It did work for me....the purenexus ROM I'm running right now was a restore that had a pin. 4 digit pin with no fingerprint.....then went to twrp....backed up.....then wipe dalvic, cache, system, data, then factory reset, then restored, rebooted system, entered the pin and I was in. That's how I do it.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] micmars:
Check the permissions of the app you're using to backup photos...if you haven't granted it write permissions, it'll cause issues...but if it's a hard reboot, then we'll need to know the kernel you're running, a last kernel message and a logcat.

Sent from My Nexus 6P, #WhiteUIsMustDie, #EndDarkAppOppression
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Phazmos:
There appears to be an issue coming from Franco kernel.

As mentioned, unsu/kernel/su or kernel/unsu/su leaves you with Franco kernel again - according to kernel auditor anyway.

Haven't tried on a clean flash though. Give it a go, I'm curious to see what happens. I plan on testing, but can't till later tonight.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] inffy:
What do you want me to test?

Of course it will leave you with a Franco kernel as you have flashed it.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] btvolta:
Yeah, it seems it works with just the pin, but not with fingerprint. I just always simply remove both prior to nanding.

Just wanted to say that I have the pill/weather look with my stock PN Pixel Launcher on the 3/17 build. FWIW, I clean flashed the February build when moving to PN from stock for the first time and I dirty flashed the March build. I have the pill/weather look in Nova, as well. Not sure what's causing yours to not be right, good luck!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] danimag83:
Always clean flash it is for me.

Gonna try wakelock.

Or flash again...
[Nexus 6P Android Development] brock37:
I too experienced horrible battery life when I first clean flashed the new build. But, I let google play services update a few apps here and there over a day or two. Then cleared the play services cache and battery life is just fine now. Just my own experience on how I resolved the issue.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] srancier:
I just replaced my own battery in my first launch version of the 6P from Google. Mine is sadly out of warranty and my battery was dying even after all of the usual suspects being checked and tried. I think we are just starting to see our batteries begin to degrade as well as adding more taxing processes. The obvious issue may simply be that these things have a half life (albeit a crappy thing to have to deal with) I will report back on what changing the battery does to my battery-life overall. In the event that you are adventurous and patient, the tutorial that I used on YouTube was great. I used two of them overall, but I recommend that you watch two or three times and read some of the warnings that other users have reported before trying. I felt like I was performing brain surgery on my kid while doing it, but no damage at all. Crossing my fingers that it helps with my overall battery experience.

Guys one OT query, is anyone encountering issues with whatsapp on android wear? Quick replies from the watch(Sony SW3) doesn't seem to go through or forces whatsapp to crash on occasion. I have wiped data on the apps and even reset the watch(permissions are in place), but this issue seems to persist only with whatsapp all other services are running normally.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] SightSeeker:
Great ROM, very stable.

I have an ongoing issue it seems after I flash a new version. I charge my battery every night but it seems it charges to 100% then will drain even though plugged in. I fall asleep with the Sirius app running so it could be that but it seems to always start right after a clean wipe then flash. It seems to go away after awhile but I am checking if there is something I can do to fix it.

3Minit Update

Greetings all,

I am a big fan of the 3Minit mod and have been using my phone without it for months. I just updated PN to the latest build (3.17) and did a few searches to see if 3Minit was working in PN now, and I found the following thread post. I made a backup and then flashed the .zip in the post and it seems to be working just fine. I already had 3Minit working from a previous build, so after I flashed the .zip it worked perfectly.

If you are interested in the 3Minit mod, check this post.

I had a weird issue today that I want to report. I've used the search function to no avail. So I got a call today, picked up using the dialer that's shipped with this rom, and after the call was finished, my screen wouldn't turn back on. The phone was still active, since I could feel the unlock vibration when using the fingerprint scanner, however, the screen stayed black. The only way to fix it was a hard reboot by long pressing the power button. Anyone else has faced a similar issue?
