WhatsApp is just as bad if not worse than Facebook I think. The amount of wakelocks that it holds are insane. Every Better Battery Stats screenshot I've seen where someone uses it shows WhatsApp at the top or in a close 2nd.

Hey I thought I'd share some feedback on the latest r17 release. Just wondering is anyone else experiencing issues whilst in a call. When using speaker caller can hear me fine and vice versa but when I return back from speaker to earpiece I'm getting complaints that I can hardly be heard, apparently I sound muffled like I'm walking away from my phone. I've tested this on a number of calls today and all have complained about the same issue. I'm on the recommended gapps but using Google dialler with all permissions set correctly and set as default dialler. Anyone else experiencing this same issue? I'm currently also using elemental X 4.10 kernel. Thanks in advance.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Badger50:
Other users of various roms have had the same issue. Don't know if this will help, but try editing your build prop with the following instructions :good:

With PureNexus and elementalx kernel I get around 4hSOT under	~48 hours, aprox.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] neeko92:
What does SOT means ?

Usin the last pn, can i flash manually elementalx kernel or do i have to wipe some stuff before ?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] kiloe:
Screen on time. Just flash in twrp and wipe cache.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] JazzMozz:
Since two weeks I'm on PN and since a day or two many apps force close when I open them (i.e. I'm taken back to the home screen of my launcher). When I open the app again, everything goes well again. Never had this on stock android. Anyone experiencing the same behaviour?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Face_Plant:
Did you change anything before this started happening? Did you restore app data using Titanium Backup or set them up fresh? Got any logs?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] JazzMozz:
No, no restore. And can't think of anything that has changed (and that I could relate to this behaviour). Maybe a noob question, but how do I make a log? And of what?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Face_Plant:
How to make a logcat:

https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1726238

Start the log and try opening a few of the apps that crash. The error(s) should be captured in the log. Once you've logged a few crashes, stop the log capture and attach the text file to your post or upload it to a file hosting site (like Google Drive) and post the link.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] JazzMozz:
Thanks for the quick reply. I put the log file here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/czceg56iuqy0rfq/Log_2017-07-10_20-14-02.txt?dl=0

I noticed that the forced closing occurs after I switched on the screen and opened Brave browser and surfed to a random internet page. But the behaviour also occurs when I e.g. open my file explorer (Solid Explorer) after I switched on the screen. So it is related to performing an action directly after I switched on the screen and unlocked the phone. Hope this helps. Thanks for looking into this.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Einwod:
Some themes can also cause app crashes. Any themes Installed?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] JazzMozz:
Nope, only plain PN with Magisk and Franco kernel
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Face_Plant:
The only error I saw in the log was a connection timeout, but I'm also not an expert at finding errors in logs....

Do you have any Magisk modules installed? Are you using the stable version (version 12) or the beta version (version 13)? Have you tried a different kernel?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] JazzMozz:
I don't have any Magisk modules installed (yet). I'm running the V12 version. Haven't tried another kernel yet.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Face_Plant:
Try the kernel included with Pure Nexus and see if that makes a difference. You can either dirty flash the ROM, or extract the boot image from the zip file and install it with TWRP or fastboot. Whichever method you choose, I recommend wiping cache/dalvik after installation.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nathanchance:
Regarding kernel upstream updates: https://plus.google.com/+NathanChancellor/posts/e3NRp4ombti

These will be in the next update :) (whenever that is lol)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Uuugh:
I was wrong

I was wrong... as expected I suppose. This ROM is, as always, rock solid. For some reason Play News started doing massive battery (via the wifi) drains because it was constantly updating. I changed the app settings to prevent updates unless charging. My battery life doubled and has returned to over a day of battery life per charge with normal usage.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] ZombieSleeper:
Not a rom question but just curious how much on screen time can you guys get on average?

I'm very disappointed with the battery life on my 6p, best case scenario I get around 2 hours of on screen.

The most disappointing part is that most of the time I leave it on airplane mode + power save because at work reception is very spotty and even then I'm lucky to get 2hrs. Also have grenify and powernap

Was thinking of finding a new battery and replacing this one, would that make any difference?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] sonysingh1983:
Yea the 6p battery isn't that good tbh. When I go to sleep and when I'm at work...I turn off wifi, data, location. Overnight I lose about 2% with everything turned off, without turning off I lose like 10 %. I mostly keep my data off and turn on only when I need it. But for SOT I can get usually around 3-4 hrs.

Accubattery lists my battery health at 89% capacity remaining. Try it to c how much wear ur battery has.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Face_Plant:
I average about 16 hours off the charger with 6.5 hours of SOT using Pure Nexus and Flash kernel with fairly conservative settings. My 6P is only about 6.5 months old, so my battery is still basically new.

You mention using Greenify and PowerNap. Do you have aggressive doze turned on in Greenify by any chance? It could be conflicting with PowerNap and causing battery drain. I would recommend using one or the other, but not both.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] randiye:
EXKM

do you guys run any exkm profiles? If so, which one and what is your SOT?

[/COLOR]

what settings are you running on flash? any exkm profiles?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Face_Plant:
Governor: flash (big and little cores)

Input boost: disabled

Little core max: 1478MHz

Little core min: 384MHz

Big core max: 960MHz

Big core min: 384MHz

Thermal throttling: 45°C

GPU governor: powersave

GPU Max: 305MHz

I would not recommend these if you want your phone to perform well. I don't use my phone for much other than texting, web browsing, and watching videos, so these settings are good enough for me.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] ART:
This is from Flar2, creator of exkm and elemental x :

"Time to quit talking about screen on time (SOT)

TL;DR: Compare governor profiles objectively by checking the Battery Monitor in EX Kernel Manager after a day or two of usage. The numbers don't lie.

People constantly ask which governor profile is best, or what tweaks they need to do to improve battery life. Usually this is answered by "I get seven hours SOT with profile XX."

The profile you choose (or perhaps you choose no profile at all) depends on many variables, including how you personally use your phone.

SOT is the worst way to measure battery life, it is virtually meaningless. In measurement terms, it has low reliability and low validity. To measure battery life properly, you need a way to standardize the measurement. My answer to this is "percent per hour usage." This tells you how much the battery level has dropped in an average hour.

For this to work, you must separate screen on and screen off measurements. This is absolutely necessary. Otherwise your battery stats are measuring the ratio of screen on to screen off time, not battery life. This is a huge problem with apps like GSAM or BBS, which show %/hr but do not separate screen on/screen off. This makes the stat useless.

The other key is to measure for a long period of time. The stats don't mean anything until you've measured for several hours. This allows any anomalies to be ironed out. You may have heard the term "regression to the mean." When you measure over many hours, you will come closer to the true measurements. This is completely true with battery life measurement, you will find your stats remarkably consistent if you measure for days. This is a problem with an app like AccuBattery, which copied my methods but constantly resets the stats at full charge. This is why I DO NOT reset the stats at 100%. You will have better measurements if you let it run longer.

I created the Battery Monitor in EX Kernel Manager to address all of these issues. It handles everything for you, only measuring battery drain while the battery is discharging, automatically collecting stats separately for screen on and screen off.

If you want to know which profile is best, use the Battery Monitor in EX Kernel Manager. This is the only way to measure battery life in any objective way. Try a governor profile for a few days, look at the screen on (active) %/hr. Then try another profile for a few days and look at the screen on %/hr. The lower one is objectively the better profile for you."

I use Loki on my 6p with greenify and naptime(from the Franco kernel dev), works brilliantly.

﻿
[Nexus 6P Android Development] ART:
If you're still curious about SOT
[Nexus 6P Android Development] JazzMozz:
I dirty flashed the ROM and wiped dalvik and cache, but the problem continues. So no kernel issue then... Any other suggestions?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] ithorien:
I can attest to the fact that the battery is absolute garbage. My phone is approximately 16-17 months old now, health has degraded to 60%, and it seems like the battery, or something else, may be the culprit for all my other issues. Phone is no longer fast or snappy even after clean, "required" app installs only. It constantly freezes and lags, especially when Bluetooth is enabled, and even worse when connected. At this point I'm holding out as long as I can, hoping Pixel 2 comes out soon so that I can replace this garbage.

And I loved this phone in the beginning :(
[Nexus 6P Android Development] slick97477:
Cool deal. Didn't know that all the ones I looked did not have it working
[Nexus 6P Android Development] troymz1:
It's a rom, just done differently. You flash a 30MB zip over stock system
[Nexus 6P Android Development] androidphan88:
While I understand your position my CC information is just as vulnerable when buying things online as it is with NFC IMHO. I guess I will give cataclysm a shot.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] slick97477:
We have to agree to disagree on that one. CC information shopping online is honestly more secure than wirelessly transmitted. To get your info via online they would have to intercept the packets or hack the victims computer to get info. With AP just have to be near with a program running and instantly have it all. And if you have a unprotected wallet could easily get other cards as well.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] parcou:
Thanks. Never used Tasker I rolled dice and went with MacroDroid way back but I will look see if it can I have done wonderful things with it already.

Me personally I Xpose for just few things that helps me. YouTube ad block/background for no commercials and background play so I can do other items music plays and I work screen off. JIT to keep screen on for apps like damn developers of Spotify screen cuts off. When driving I want music screen show and I use it for Chrome, Readers, Google News reader, etc keeps screen on app foreground. Pandora patcher for unlimited skips and thumbs up download MP3 (but I do buy support artist really use that). Xinsta for Instgram pic download. Bootmanager stop apps from starting up at boot. Greenify works great for me along with Xposed addin to kill bad apps like FB and Skype host of others and my battery is great despite what others might say about Greenify. I do use Gravity lightly must be wise using it to not cross Beans changes.

For me just aids to my life as a great utility using Xposed.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] troymz1:
After you flash Franco kernel you are required to flash SuperSU again if you want to keep root. So yes it does break root.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] ohlin5:
You're incorrect on that. This is what the idea of tokenization is meant to prevent. Someone skimming NFC data nearby is only going to get a fake number that is used to represent your real card number within the AP app and through the payment process - thereby leaving your actual information still secure.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] inffy:
Incorrect

It uses a newer root than the rom provides.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] slick97477:
Just gonna sit back on this one, there are hundreds of articles explaining it is not secure and that a hacker can simply replay the card data captured to make a purchase
[Nexus 6P Android Development] inffy:
Yeah better do that as those "articles" are totally outdated. The tokenization used in Android pay/apple pay/Samsung pay is totally different system what is used on normal cless cards.

And even on the normal cards it's not that easy.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] slick97477:
Yea noticed that.... There are ways of doing it but though totally different from what I was thinking originally. And a alot harder to do.

Sorry guys made a assumption and that was a mistake
[Nexus 6P Android Development] azsl1326:
Getting a consistent error several times a day in the play store - background data disabled. This despite me having an active data or Wi-Fi connection. Any ideas?

Thanks, in advance.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] J.L.C.:
Latest version of PN is working great for me. Battery life is good, no problems with LTE.

Is GravityBox currently the only way to change status bar icon /text colors? I've been looking for something that does it with layers, but those only seem to change the color of the bar.

I kind of want to avoid installing Xposed, but want green icons and text.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nathanchance:
I believe so since Beans removed the ability to color the icons/text in an earlier update (11/09) in favor of the new dark status bar coloring that some apps use (like Naptime).
[Nexus 6P Android Development] :
You can use Nova prime launcher and make everything (clock, battery, signal..etc.) black instead of white but that's about it far as I know.. Its under "look and feel" "dark icons.."
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Rootuser3.0:
Any way to get android pay to work on this ROM?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nathanchance:
No. Forgive my short response but this has been the topic of the week (month even) and there have been at the least 20 posts about it a quick search would have found rather quickly. Like this one.

Android Pay is not supposed to and probably never will run on custom ROMs. The fact it runs on Chroma is literally a miracle. See this engineer's post, it is a security issue and it will be hard to resolve that. Even with systemless root (which Chainfire said he never intended for it to work that way), it has only worked with factory image ROMs because Safety Net recognizes it as stock without root. I am sure there are developers hard at work like Beans trying to get it to work with AOSP but I have a feeling that it is going to be incredibly difficult and may never happen. I have yet to see an AOSP ROM get Android Pay working AND know why (Chroma doesn't count). I have tried all versions of systemless root and even going rootless on Chroma and Pure Nexus on my Nexus 6, no dice. Furthermore, systemless root will eventually fail to work once Google finds a way to block it so don't get too comfortable with that.

I don't mean for this to come off as abrasive, I just want to set the record straight.

tl;dr: If you REALLY care about Android Pay, flash stock and leave it at that. Rooting and customization are NOT going to co-exist with Android Pay (at least at the moment). Accept it and move on.

Doesn't happen to you guys that the power button suddenly stops working? I know the physical/hardware button works cause if I double press it, the camera starts... but single press for lock/unlock the device or long press to power off the phone doesn't work...

I have to use an app like SimpleReboot in order to reboot the phone and get the power button to work again...

Any ideas!?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] slick97477:
Been on PureNexus for a few days now and never had a issue like that. Hopefully one of the others will chime in and give you a hand to try and figure it out. Sounds really odd that the power button would quit working like that though

[Nexus 6P Android Development] DowntownRDB:
[MENTION=2909773]ithorien[/MENTION] I installed a new battery in my Nexus 6P and it's like having a new phone all over again. No lagging, no stuttering, just pure snappy. No need for me to even look at Pixel 2 at this point. However, if the new battery hadn't fixed the issues I was probably going to take a hard look at the Essential smartphone.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] outbackpaul:
Make sure all your data is backed up off the phone. My 6P just died of the BLOD that so many other people are experiencing. I've had to go back to my Note 3 until the Pixel 2 is released.

Thanks
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Face_Plant:
Maybe it's time for the last resort and do a clean install of Pure Nexus with no custom kernels or other mods, only install absolutely essential apps, etc? I'm running out of ideas...
[Nexus 6P Android Development] JazzMozz:
That is exactly what I was thinking. The problem hasn't occurred over the past few hours. I will give it another day. If it occurs again I will factory reset and start from scratch (maybe even a different ROM). Thanks anyway for your help. I appreciate you thinking along.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Abdulaziz6p:
What about July Security Patch update ?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Face_Plant:
It's on the way. Be patient. If you've noticed, Beans tends to release his updates in the middle of the month, so it should be out soon.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] bodieism:
Thank you for this. I would never have thought to try a heat gun to come out of a bootloop. I couldn't even get into TWRP before reading this post. After using a hairdryer I was able to boot into TWRP and copy all of my data to my PC. I was also able to boot the system back up using the same method after recovering my data. At least this will be a temporary fix until I can buy something else (guess I'll put the hairdryer in my EDC bag). If this had to happen the least it could have done was wait until the Pixel 2 was out... :(
[Nexus 6P Android Development] One1Two2:
My thoughts exactly ! Thinking about grabbing a One Plus or a used Pixel to hold me over.

Remember, recent PN and Beans GApps are using AOSP Phone and Contacts apps, not the Google ones. I think that's why the colors of the icons are not the same as Messenger app.

MD5's should always be checked, on every file you flash, I don't know why more folks don't do this. The amount of times I've had something come up short here is amazing.

I had a file that showed the right filesize but wrong MD5 last year, until I downloaded from a different mirror on AFH, that's been the worst offender so far.

CHECK YO MD5's FOO!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] haiderijaz:
The rom is going great as usual. I had a few crashes with Quickpic and Gboard. My charging was not great as well. So I switched back to Stock but to no avail. I then flashed clean the rom. The charging and QuickPic were great. However, I am still having crashes with Gboard. It entire disappears and I have to force stop it. This happens atleast 4 times in the day. Is anyone else having the same issue? If so, what's the solution?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] mikexda:
I totally agree, and I always do - except when it's not possible.

<***** mode>I just updated magisk via own XDA app which offers no md5. Then you download and flash the corresponding zip which offers no md5 verification. Hopefully there is some internal check?? </>

All worked fine, but still.. :confused:

Flashing blindly sucks. :silly:
