I didn't see your step of flashing the latest Vendor with you new build. Other than that, it sounds like you might have made your back up with security (pin, pattern, fingerprint, etc) still active.

If you have no access to a pc or the Internet right now, there is only one option I can think of off the top of my head.

There is a file that you delete to remove the pin lock/password on your TWRP so you can restore your nand. I'll look for that and post it when I find it.

I know it's a day late and a dollar short, but I never mess with my device if I am away from the pc and/or have no Internet connectivity. You never know when you'll need them.

EDIT: here are the files that need deleting IF your problem is a active password/pin when making your nand.

/data/system/locksettings.db

/data/system/locksettings.db-wal

/data/system/locksettings.db-shm

But this still requires access to TWRP which you say you don't have. Unless there is another option that is not coming to me, you'll have to wait to get back to the Internet and your PC for more options.

Sorry I couldn't be of more help.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] hlokk101:
Thanks for looking into this for me. I think you may have misunderstood though. I have access to my pc and it has an internet connection, otherwise I would not be able to post here.

The problem is that my phone does not have access to my pc because I can't access the developer options to turn on usb debugging, and it does not have access to the internet because for some reason android cannot find my sim card or any wireless signals.

I did not. I was going to do that once I had rebooted system to make sure everything was working. Which it isn't :/

---------- Post added at 03:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:46 PM ----------

Thanks for all your help guys. I managed to get access to my internal storage in TWRP by turning off all my security settings, thank **** that menu didn't crash the settings app every time I tried to open it (looking at you, Developer Options >:[ ).

Do I need to try clean wipe > flash rom > flash gapps > flash vendor img > reboot next time?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Az Biker:
I'd follow THESE steps, exactly :D
[Nexus 6P Android Development] BrotherZero:
So this is a rather dumb question, but how do I install apps if I don't want GAPPS? There is no file manager so I can't even install Fdroid after I put the APK in the download folder manually.

Also how does this ROM work with MicroG?

TIA
[Nexus 6P Android Development] ciaoviao:
You can launch the apk setup from the native file manager in settings -- storage -- explore.

I run PN without gapps and it's smooth and without bugs, but I didn't try microG so I can't help you
[Nexus 6P Android Development] galaxy s4 nutjob:
Can anyone please post the APK for asop dialer
[Nexus 6P Android Development] sixgunmojo:
Here you go.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] sixgunmojo:
IIRC MicroG needs signature spoofing to work properly, and PN doesn't support that.

Wonder if you can't patch that using Tingle or NanoMod, but I already flashed CarbonRom now so I'll give that a swirl before trying out Pure Nexus or Paranoid Android.

all you need to do is give the phone app permission to access storage and the block call feature will appear.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] sixgunmojo:
I don't believe it took me this long to remember.:mad: It can be done trivially with Tasker (now on sale). You can create a profile to allow your phone to only ring when you are called by someone in your contacts. The only issue I have had is that sometimes you will hear the very beginning of your ringtone. My workaround for this is my default ringtone is set to none and my contacts have custom ringtones - I have a very short contact list, I even know who is calling without looking at my phone. :). If you wanted (or it may be easier) you could even create a profile to just silence your phone when you receive a call from someone not in your contacts.

I updated Rom per instructions when July version was released. There is a google contacts update i can not install. I used recommended mini google apps. I tried to remove with titanium everything contacts and deleted all files with contacts in the name. That was a huge mistake and had to reinstall rom from scratch. I still can't update google contacts i get error 505. I tried wiping cache/data of google play store and services, delete/redo google account. Any suggestions?

Hey guys,

Another OT: does anyone know what "Google connectivity services" actually do?

I updated it and it feels like my Wi-Fi connectivity is worse. So uninstalled the update and the app doesn't show up anymore in my apps list. I guess that's normal?

Thanks az biker for help. I tried clean install and did full gapps this time with same result.

Hi my fellows, quick question. has anyone lost their vibrations, notifications to be exact? if I change kernels it will persist for a while, but eventually stop. No search results have helped.I'm running the July build with Flash kernel, or stock or elemental doesn't seem to matter. Any thoughts?

Battery Issue

Hello everyone, after running Lineage OS with Franko Kernel for about a month and a half, I decided to switch back to PN With Franko Kernel, i just like to too much i guess. In Lineage, i would get approx 3-4 hours of SOT no problem. Now on my third day of PN, when i get to 50% or below, when i open, more intensive apps, like snapchat, the phone powers off... I know this is the same thing that is caused usually by the early shutoff issue. However, i could run my Lineage OS install to 1% and still use apps like snapchat. I did run battery calibration, and that helped a bit, not it shuts of at around 30 instead, but still.... Is anyone else having a problem like this? Should i try re-flashing PN AGAIN (This is my second flash in 4 days, due to something (being com.phone stopping) breaking in the first 30 mins, and other weird issues with the first and second install, such as some usual stock apps missing, like clock and others).

I will attempt a clean reflash and try it out again. Is it time to get my 4th 6P?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Poloasis:
I have the same issue, I only flashed PN ROM since I got the phone in Nov 2015. I don't believe it's ROM issue but hardware.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] vnzhugeliang:
It could not be locked when i switched off, i slided up to open the phone, it was opened immediately not check password :(( i dont know how???
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Bewinxed:
Very late response, but I sent my device to a friend in the USA with the label and he dropped it for me, I got a replacement nexus and I didn't have to call google longer than 5 minutes.

Got a replacement before I sent mine, the new phone was fine until 5 months in when I got the bottom speaker and mic messed up (must be the humidity here!) and I traded my 6P last week for an S8+

Quite happy with google tbh

[Nexus 6P Android Development] haiderijaz:
Just wanted to get back to you all. I had posted a few days ago regarding the echo issue. I was thinking it was the rom but I have to clear everyone that it wasn't the rom. I have flashed the stock firmware, downgraded to other stock versions, clean flashed the rom, tried the build.prop fix but to no avail. Then I took it to one of the shops, they cleaned the speaker phone and the mic as well but still a few people complain of hearing their own voice back when they call me. I couldn't live without the rom so I flashed it back.

If anyone knows any other solution, please feel free to share. Just wanted to let you know that it wasn't a rom issue.

Yes I did that. Infact I changed the cover, used it without a cover and even got the mic cleaned from a technician and the speaker as well. :(

---------- Post added at 07:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:50 PM ----------

You can skip to July update. Secondly, it depends on your personal choices whether you want to wait or not. There hasn't been that much of a difference in July update though but then again if you are having any little issue, you can dirty flash July update.

Whenever I open Google photos,it says 'android.process.media' has stopped! Not only in this ROM but also in S.i.X ROM. I started facing this when I was using S.i.X ROM,so I installed pure nexus.But, unfortunately its also the same here! :/

To block a call in google dialer (or aosp dialer), go to recent calls tab, long press on desired number, one of the choice is block number. No need to create a contact... The difference with Google dialer is you can report it as spam as well as block, if you wish. In aosp dialer, you just block it.

Perfection can't be rushed ;)

[Nexus 6P Android Development] Az Biker:
If by update you mean a clean flash of the newest build, then yes.

Be sure to include ALL the files posted with Beans latest build (especially Vendor)

It's never worth waiting when a new build is available :p

I see it's time for a reminder of the mathematical consequences of asking ETAs:

Dev adds 3 days to the release for every outright ETA,

2 days for each disguised ETA, and

1 day for every combo-hybrid question that contains a veiled ETA...

Conversely, Dev SUBTRACTS several days until release for each day no form of ETA is requested. So there IS hope!

tl;dr fewer ETAs = faster build releases (it's scientific, mathematical fact)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] KennyG123:
It's not polite to ask. Developers do this on their own time and life happens. This is a hobby for them, not a job with deadlines.

However, the stock images are up on the developer site to flash manually - however do note that your device will be wiped if you flash.

Miracast was borked by Google many many moons ago. They want you using Chromecast for everything. I used to use Miracast all the time and Beans would always put in the build.prop edits needed to fix it, then Google hard broke something.

See if you can figure out what Nitrogen has related to this, and it could be something to fix.

Tomorrow is when we would.

If you built it.

Today.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] drc13:
Thanks for the reply mate, So frustrating as I have a house full of chromecasts but that doesn't help me in my car (which is miracast)

Stock works with AA but not miracast (even with build.prop mods)

PN works with android auto but can't connect with miracast

NitrogenOS worked with miracast but android auto wouldn't work via usb

Vanilla ROM somehow had the magical combination of allowing miracast to work as well as android auto working via the USB so I'm currently running that. It would be amazing if PN could get miracast working again but I don't have anywhere near the technical knowledge to work out what's different between the roms.

Goes without saying each future update will be a hold my breath moment to see if google has broken it again.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] sixgunmojo:
I am aware of that. I don't know about G4N but I don't want my phone to ring at all if you're not in my contacts, and IMHO having to block numbers one at a time is some serious BS. Unfortunately I have yet to find a call blocker in the place store that doesn't, in some small way, irritate the hell out of me.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Abdulaziz6p:
Not polite? I don't think so ...

IMO, This is a good thing for the developer to provide everything he have to us.

Because he'll know that there are people eagerly awaiting his work. With all appreciation to [MENTION=418212]beans[/MENTION] and his assistants for this Great ROM

[Nexus 6P Android Development] Az Biker:
Thanks for the kind words. Hopefully you will find your respect reciprocated in this response.

While no rule will stop violations from happening, imagine the number of users who would ask for ETAs if it wasn't regularly discouraged...

There are a few things to keep in mind:

1) this is a private forum, the rules are not voted on, and are not instituted as a matter of popularity

2) the reason for discouraging ETA's is three-fold:

a. it IS rude to pressure, bug, insist, hint, ask for updates (remember there are 7 million + members on Xda) as devs are doing US the favor of building, updating, and creating stuff that makes our devices fun. THEY are doing US the favor, and WE should always wait on THEIR schedule.

b. this is a DEVELOPMENT forum, bottom line. Helping iron out bugs, working through tweaks or mods that are broken, discussing fixes, suggesting mods and features are ALL a part of development and furthering the purpose of Xda. Asking for ETAs only serves one purpose, and that is to satisfy the requester's desire to flash something new and shiny. Rushing, bugging, irritating, devs for a new build/update serves NO development purpose whatsoever.

c. Requests for updates that will come NO faster because of the requests, clogs up the threads with useless posts. At least, some off topic conversation is interesting, but asking for an ETA is like filling GM's in box with requests for a new body style Vette 3 months after the latest body style hits the streets.

If the "don't ask for ETA's" rule only prevented 10% of Xda members from asking, that saves 700,000 ETAs from clogging the forums. I promise you it prevents MUCH more like 80% of member which means it "creates" is about 5.5 million FEWER ETAs we don't have to read :D

tl;dr

agree with it or not, there are far more reasons to discourage 7 million+ users from requesting ETAs than there are to allow it.
