Ultimately, please use whatever means you find most convenient to restore your apps and data...just know that if you encounter any issues, TiBu could be the cause.

Yeah, that's pretty crazy. It's not even on the play store.

[Nexus 6P Android Development] xflowy:
does stock data backup and restore also restores the settings within the apps or only the app itself?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] micmars:
The Google Backup supposedly does both, but I've read that it doesn't always work out that way.

If you haven't gotten this figured out or a response on it I had a similar issue in the past. It is likely caused by an app like Lux, cf.Lumen, etc that creates an 'overlay' on your screen. If you disable that app you should be able to hit the install button. If you're using lux, there is a way to temporarily disable it to get past these issues as well.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Rootuser3.0:
Absolutely love this rom Beans thanks
[Nexus 6P Android Development] guitar1238751:
Help! I was messing with Layers (Pure Nexus Rom) and after I applied the theme it was stuck at the booting animation. So I went into twrp and wiped dalvic, cache, and data. It was still stuck at the animation so this time I restored from a previous backup made in twrp and rebooted. Now it was stuck at the white google logo. So once again I went into twrp and this time I just choose the option to wipe everything. Then I rebooted back into recovery, then rebooted back into system and now its still stuck at the white google logo. I am able to log into bootloader, recovery with no problem. But I am unable to boot into system. I have it plugged in to my computer and I have fastboot open. I tried fastboot devices but nothing comes up. I have no idea what to do now. I can't seem to find a thread on this. What should I do? Thanks.

---------- Post added at 07:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:48 PM ----------

I just got it to connect to the connect via twrp. I just transfered the pure nexus zip and gapps package. I am flashing it now. Hopefully this works.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nathanchance:
Go into TWRP, click Mount then select vendor, go into Advanced > File Manager, navigate to /vendor/overlay, and delete everything in that folder. No need to reflash anything.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] guitar1238751:
Thanks man but I wish I had done that before. I just flashed the rom. Now its stuck at the bootup animation.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nathanchance:
You can still do it; furthermore, you need to do it. Hold down your power and volume down buttons until you are in the bootloader. Use volume down to get to recovery mode and push/hold power to go into it. Then follow that process.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] guitar1238751:
Okay I got to vendor but I can't seem to find the overlay folder or file. What should I do now?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Raiden350:
Is this the best rom currently ?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] guitar1238751:
The picture quality is really bad since I'm on an old Samsung Tab 4 right now. Hopefully you're able to get an idea of whats on the screen
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nathanchance:
Best is a relevant term. Most popular? Maybe. Best? No such thing. Everyone here will tell you it is the best since they are on it. But the same thing is true of every other thread. Just something to keep in mind.

Try flashing this. Do the MTP mount you did in TWRP before to get it on your phone.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] KennyG123:
Mount Vendor partition in TWRP and all will appear.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] guitar1238751:
Okay I am flashing it now. Should I just flash it or doing anything else before or right after flashing?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nathanchance:
Nope, just flash it and try to boot up.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] guitar1238751:
Okay its at the bootup animation now.

[Nexus 6P Android Development] nathanchance:
Glad we got everything resolved! :)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] micmars:
Excellent news!

For reference for others that encounter this, here are the steps...

1. From the TWRP main menu, tap Mount...

2. From the Mount menu, tap the "vendor" checkbox...

3. Go back to the TWRP main menu

4. Tap File Manager

5. Navigate to vendor, overlay, then tap the filename of the layer you wish to delete, then check the checkmark on the right, and you'll be presented with the option to delete...swipe to confirm, and reboot...

[Nexus 6P Android Development] iakeco:
I said that months ago and quite a few of you people here ripped me a new a#&hole.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Spannaa:
Probably because your guess wasn't based on fact.

A few people have known for a while that PN Oroeo definitely wasn't going to happen, but it's still down to the dev to announce it.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] iakeco:
Ok
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Az Biker:
Thanks for the ride Nate! [MENTION=4395895]BeansTown106[/MENTION]

PN was glorious regardless of the device it was on, I'll miss PN, but I'll miss your skills more!

Life/family are more important than ANYTHING, including making our devices incredible, and no one in their right mind would stop you from pursuing them.

God speed, much respect, and sincerest blessings to you and your family on the next chapter in your lives.

IF/when you return to development, make sure to shout out what device you'll be cooking for so I can get one :D

Again, thanks for the Pure Nexus ride! It was amazing.

Anyone with anything but love for you, is a fool.

Peace my friend.

[Nexus 6P Android Development] Fr0gg0:
Couldn't see that one coming. Way to keep giving people false "promises".

Anyhow, haven't used Pure Nexus for a while now but it used to be my main rom. So thanks for that.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Badger50:
"False promises" Really my friend?? A Dev whose devoted many years to many devices, to make the finest rom, with excellent support with no cost to any of us! A simple thank you would have sufficed! Have a blessed day!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jamiejames:
Seriously. I can't imagine why he would want to leave the entitlement of some of his users. I'm surprised he put up with it as long as he did.

I personally thank you Beans for everything you've done for the Android community. You will be missed. I have a feeling we'll be hearing from you again. Taking care of yourself is far more important than anything else. Some of us do understand that. Respect.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Az Biker:
Users like you are a cancer to Xda.

You haven't even used PN in a while, yet you come back to troll the thread, and throw shade at Nate after dealing with serious life issues; 100% class right there :rolleyes:

A false promise is knowing that you'll never do something, but keep saying you will. Not the case at all in Nate's situation. Things happen, you put less important stuff on hold hoping life will get better and you can get back to the less important stuff.

When life doesn't get better, you have to finally make the decision that you won't be able to do what you thought you would. Perfectly normal occurrence when life throws twists and curves at someone.

[Nexus 6P Android Development] LeftHandedWave:
Sorry to see you go Beans, but I understand. You had a great ROM!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] TheGTS:
hey since PN is dead, do you guys suggest going back to stock?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] mbc663:
I'll never leave PN Nougat. No reason to. You aren't missing anything at all.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] TheGTS:
what about for security issues? since PN hasnt been updated in over a year.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Az Biker:
When Nate stopped cooking for the Note 3, I stayed on the last PN build for just over a year until I got the 6P and flashed PN on it the next day.

IMHO, until apps start FCing or issues start popping up, I'd stay on the latest PN until something comes along on 8x that you just can't live without.

I'm running DU on my Pixel 2 XL, not quite PN, but it's stable and fast. DU also supports the 6P.

I don't do any "banking" per se, on my phone (Android pay, fast pay, etc.) so I've never been too worried about 'security'. Unlocking the bootloader, rooting, and downloading mods and apps are all susceptible to exploitation in one way or another, so I'm not a fan of thinking our rooted devices are ever truly 'secure'.

About a month ago I carried my 6P for a week or so and used it as I do my 2 XL to see if it was still "viable".. I didn't have a single problem with it, with any apps, with anything. Didn't even feel like a year old OS.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] mikexda:
I've been running stock for many months now that Nate has had some personal issues. I completely understand and I hope all goes well for him. We have enjoyed his work for a few years. Best there is!

Stock (rooted of course) with Nova launcher does everything I need. I miss a few of the little things that Nate baked in, but it's certainly not a deal breaker.

[MENTION=218384]Az[/MENTION] just said he is running DU and he likes it. I can't comment as I have not tried it.

You mention the security aspect of the updates. Good question. Since I'm on stock now, I get a rom on the first of the month with all the latest updates. Gives me a little warm fuzzy feeling. But I truly believe that if you don't do anything stupid, you really do not have anything to worry about.

I'll be buying a pixel 3xl at the end of the year. I truly hope Nate comes back to developing for it, but if he doesn't stock is is pretty damn good these days.

Hello. I am trying to use Wifi Calling but there is no option for it. I've checked Phone>Settings>Calls. It is not there.

I have AT@T and it is supported(Switched Sims with my girlfriends phone and reset it. Still not there.)

My phone is not rooted, it that the reason? Otherwise I have zero clue.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] KennyG123:
This only works on AT&T branded phones.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] oscarmaldonado:
Hey there, I'm assuming you have a nexus 6P right, are you running the latest version (8.1)? I do have a nexus 6P and mine shows that option and also you don't have to be rooted to have that feature.

This cannot be true. My lady purchased a phone(LeEco Le Pro3 with LineageOS rom) and it is not AT@T branded.

Thank you for your reply. I am using Pure Nexus so I'm on 7.1.2 still, unless it's been updated(checked the main page).

I just re flashed the rom to see if thats the issue, ill let you know. Where is the 8.1 version

[Nexus 6P Android Development] KennyG123:
I remember reading something about people having to contact AT&T and give them their phone IMEI to register it on their network to be able to enable that feature. Could your girl have done that with the LeEco?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] cerberusxd:
She didn't. Just took it out her 5x and put it in her new phone.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] KennyG123:
Don't know why the LeEco works but this was from an AT&T administrator:

[Nexus 6P Android Development] RockwellB1:
Just got a 6P again after a few years without one. Was hoping to toss this or an updated O version of it on, but I see that's not in the cards right now. Thanks for all the memories Beans. I used this ROM from the day I bought my original 6P to the day I sold it, was the best. For now I guess I'll just run stock O with EX until a pure and stable P ROM comes along. Unless of course I find out the one I just got has the CPU issue.

In short, thanks again Beans!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] kcallis:
Maybe some one can point me to the correct path to get this feature working. I am using my 6P and use Project Fi. Because I lived in the country, I have next to nothing as far as cellular service. I thought that if I was connected to wifi, I could be able to make and receive calls with no issues. More importantly, if I make call, I thought I could used the stock google dialer and make my calls. For me to make a call (as well as receive calls), I have to make use of Hangout Dialer. Am I missing something that I didn't square away in order to make wifi calls or am I just stuck with hangouts?

[Nexus 6P Android Development] CyberpodS2:
Lol, after seeing they backed off on how aggressive they let the battery charge on the Pixel 2 XL I just assumed they pushed the crappy battery too hard on the 6P.

I'm on a second battery and mine is still like new right now. I use it on FI and am still very happy with it. In some ways I like it better than my Taimen...
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Lawlrus:
I'm still on my original batter and this is almost three years old. If the issue was anything other than hardware, the issue would be more consistent

Hey guys. I know this is a super super old thread, but I checked to make sure that I wouldn't be the one grave-digging.

I've tried to install this rom for hours on end, and cannot get it to work. I've installed almost every other rom successfully. I've tried to flash everything back to stock (radio, bootloader, recover, vendor) and then try and install the rom, and it didn't work. I get to the boot animation and then it will just hang forever.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] AzraelsKiss:
I would do a flash_all full install of the July 2017 N2G48B stock image, reboot into stock to verify that it boots properly then reinstall TWRP and flash the ROM with the July 25, 2017 BeansGAPPS. Good luck!

Have a good one!

[Nexus 6P Android Development] Az Biker:
I've been off my 6P for 2 years (development wise), but I don't believe this 7 Rom would be compatible with 8.

All is not lost though, as you can update your 6P to the latest 8x image (or 9x for that matter), root with magisk, and run a cust kernel (Like EX Kernel) and still have a really, really good device!

This is how my 6P is set up, although it is collecting dust ATM, and only gets charged every few months or so.

You should be able to follow the same process used to upgrade the 2 XL found in my sig (8x Upgrade Guide).

Of course you will need the CORRECT 6P files (TWRP, and fatory images, and custom kernel) since all those in the guide are for the 2 XL.

But the process should be the same.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] StormCell:
This might work except I have no flash-all file.
