Hello, sorry for the dumb question, real noob here, but can I sideload may security patch or do I have to wait for rom update? thanks in advance!!!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Relentless D:
You have to wait for the rom update.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] bluetigger68:
You're talking the Nexus 6P right? Never heard anything like that. Did you grant write permissions and did you try flashing it via fastboot?

You have to wait for the update - security patches can't be installed separately.

Sorry to the OP for the OT chatter. I'll stop now :cyclops:
[Nexus 6P Android Development] resarfekim:
Had the same issue. After a few reboots the "App Info" came back to the top.

On a different note, after fresh installing and letting all my apps install, for some reason the Volume control for media was not working. I had all volumes set to zero, started up Pokemon, and the music started blaring. I sit in a cubicle farm, so I'm sure it would have been quite funny had it happened to someone else!

After a reboot, volume control worked normal.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Nytrikx:
Does this ROM fully support F2FS? Also, does anyone have a guide to make the switch from ext4 to f2fs the right way and complete?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] wilbarger:
If you look in the column to the right, you will see a "search" function. Go there and type in f2fs and you will find 17 pages of results. Maybe you can find an answer there for yourself.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Nytrikx:
I did that but didn't find anything. There's no need to be rude wilbarger

nice, thanks

Can i dirty flash from r6 to r8?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] popper668:
I would think not
[Nexus 6P Android Development] blsrbl:
So now every update needs a clean flash?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] drewski_1:
Only pre-April before the signing change
[Nexus 6P Android Development] blsrbl:
So i can dirty flash yesterday's update?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] KKenna:
I dirty flashed from the April update (Where I clean flashed per instructions). First reboot saw the ENTER PIN FIRST TIME message, but would not take my PIN. Tried reverting back to April - Still no lock. Found this article (https://www.howtogeek.com/240657/how-to-fix-pin-errors-after-restoring-from-twrp-android-backups/) and that got me back in.

Did I do something wrong?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] kyzn:
Dirty flash. If you encounter an error from dirty flash, you are required to clean flash first before reporting anything.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] KKenna:
Thanks. That was truly helpful. I already figured my way out. I posted in case others had the same issue, and thought someone could tell me if I'd done something wrong.

You work for Apple or something?

[Nexus 6P Android Development] midjxv:
Hello... I new here. I on the stock Nexus 6p, security patch May... No need flash Vendor to install PN? Thanks
[Nexus 6P Android Development] kyzn:
As offensive as you might think my reply was. That is true. When dirty flashing you toss a coin. If the end result is perfect, then great. If not, the solution is to clean flash. In your case, incorrect pin is indeed solved by the solution you posted. That happens when you restore a backup with a pin or dirty flash.

The absolute right way is to clean flash. You live with the results with dirty flashing. Which ultimately, you will be told by this thread to clean flash as the solution. I just got to you first.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] designori:

Hey all running into an issue when initially setting up the phone with this ROM. I get to the point where I'm setting up security and I go to input a PIN and confirm it and as soon as I go it says that Settings has crashed and kicks me back a step. I can bypass setting up any security at all and use the phone fairly as normal but if I go into the Security option under settings manually it does the same thing. I did a totally clean cache/davik/data/system wipe and literally only got the phone a few hours ago. I used the newest ROM and gapps that are provided on the first post. Thoughts?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] micmars:
I've yet to see a rom with it...I know it's a killer feature from Lollipop...please note that much has changed in Marshmallow...the quick settings tiles, for example...they were inexorably linked to that retarded system tuner that Google included with stock.. [MENTION=4395895]BeansTown106[/MENTION] worked for at least 3 days straight on it, in collaboration with other devs.

Something tells me that Slim Recents is equally challenging, if not more so.

Sent from My Nexus 6P, #WhiteUIsMustDie, #EndDarkAppOppression
[Nexus 6P Android Development] tracerit:
yup, this ROM has been rock stable and has been providing excellent battery life so far. No complaints! :)

It did take a few months before Slim Recents was implemented for OPO roms as well, definitely challenging like you mentioned. I was more curiuos if it's impossible rather than when it'll be implemented. I'm at the point where my phone is set up just right, I might have to unsubscribe from this thread to take the temptation of always updating away :P

[MENTION=5244502]micmars[/MENTION] noticed your sig favors a dark UI. What theme are you using? Been looking for one similar to stock but just dark gray or black. Nothing too overly dark though. I have magpie layers on my wishlist but wanted to see if there are other options as well.

I had done a clean install of the April update yesterday and converted to f2fs. I tried updating today and failed both dirty and clean flash until I reformatted the data and cache partitions back from f2fs to ext4.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] MarkGbe:
Sounds like you didn't re-flash an f2fs supported kernel. Flashing the updated rom would have overwrote with the stock kernel which doesn't support f2fs.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] drewski_1:
Where do you get this from? I always do with no issue.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] mbc663:
How to dirty flash:

Download the latest Pure Nexus zip, your choice of root zip (optional), and your custom kernel (optional) onto your phone.

Boot into TWRP and make a backup (remove any lock screen security before this, optional but HIGHLY recommended).

Wipe cache and dalvik cache (optional).

Update your vendor image (only need to do this once per build number).

Flash Pure Nexus zip.

Flash root (optional).

Flash custom kernel (optional).

Reboot and profit.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] MarkGbe:
Hmm, yeah that's why i posed the initial question. Seems some do it and other do not. i have always not done it because i figured it would overwrite applications that i have updated in the play store, potentially with older versions.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] drewski_1:
System & Play Store apps are stored separately. /System vs /data.

If it's older, Android won't use it

You don't have to because of Addon.d scripts, but you can, with no issue, if you have a newer GApps. Been doing it for years.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] MarkGbe:
Good to know. Judging from some off the stuff that shows as being included in the different gapps packages here, https://github.com/opengapps/opengapps/wiki/Package-Comparison, (i assume beanapps is like micro), perhaps it could be beneficial to flash updated gapps. interesting.

I dirty flashed from the last build and tried without installing Gapps and with the latest beans dynamic Gapps. It wants me to sign in every time I open. Play store but it doesn't let me.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] budeone:
Just installed... No issues. I just for the life of me can't get live wallpapers to work.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] SFG:
Bummer. I'm the furthest thing from a qualified expert in the matter but if it were me, I'd redownload both the ROM and the latest Beans GAPPs and then try dirty flashing just those 2 zips again. I don't have much to backup as most all of my apps are cloud based so clean flashing is never really an issue for me.

Either way, good luck.

Edit: I just learned that GAPPs aren't needed for a dirty flash.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] RayMcGrath:
I've found that when I backup without any overlays applied then do a restore, I experience no f/c's.

So. Before a nandroid I get rid of any security settings (fingerprint and locksettings) and flash the substratum fix.

I have a weird bug with the April and May releases. So whenever I tether (via wifi or USB) the data I use for tethering shows up under "Tethering & portable hotspot" and "Android OS".

[Nexus 6P Android Development] jbs4115:
I have a quick question about dirty flashing. Been flashing this rom for several months and love it. But I'm not sure when I can dirty flash. I check every month and update. So far I always clean install but then I have to put all of the passwords for my apps back in. Installing the new version is quick and easy but the passwords drive me crazy and take forever because I have to look everyone of them. OK, enough feeling sorry for myself, the question is if onlythe last letter changes do I have to clean install, do I haveto update the vendor image and if not then can I leave the cache?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

One other question, is there a way to be notified when the new version is out?

Thanks,

john
[Nexus 6P Android Development] JRJ442:
The vendor only needs to be updated every month when a new security update comes out. Typically when Beans releases he has a link to the proper vendor image in that post. Or it can be found in the OP. Normally you can dirty flash every build unless Beans specifies it needs to be clean installed. Or if you have weird issues you need to clean flash before posting about bugs. As far as update notifications, there's a Pushbullet channel and a Telegram channel.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jbs4115:
Great, I have a Pushbullet account so that's a good one. For the other info. Thank you much, I just couldn't get my head wrapped around, you comment makes sense to me and solved that problem.
