Anybody here uses X-plore file manager? Been using it since I had a symbian and I still find it better than any well-known file managers e.g ES
[Nexus 6P Android Development] AzraelsKiss:
I love X-plore... Been my goto file manager since ES started going downhill...

Have a good one!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] AzraelsKiss:
Just realized I forgot to install Ninja Kernel... Now I've got it where I like it... lol
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nathanchance:

[Nexus 6P Android Development] Nekromantik:
Did you compile from source since there are no builds yet?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nathanchance:
Indeed.

https://superuser.phh.me/superuser.zip Do i flash this rather than SuperSu after a clean install of pure nexus? Is this all I need to flash for root then? I know i need to download the app once i boot up.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] TheAtheistOtaku:
make sure you give the dialer storage permissions, this was my problem when i tried to set custom ringtones. it doesnt ask for the permission by default for some reason
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Juzman:
Damn you and [MENTION=6842057]nathanchance[/MENTION] - for some reason my build keeps failing at 65% when trying to compile. -.-
[Nexus 6P Android Development] semakawa:
Or you can try Root Explorer from Play Store. It's a very good app.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] oldman_58:
Its good to back on PM after a 5 day trip on Nougat...

Nougat (from Google) is not ready for primetime... Massive battery Drain, odd disconnects and call drops..

Bet [MENTION=4395895]BeansTown106[/MENTION] has all this quirks fixed..... Just sayin'
[Nexus 6P Android Development] AzraelsKiss:
I dunno... When I built it, I completely tanked my old build directory, ccache and openJDK. Installed openJDK 8, made a new build directory, initialized the new repository, synced the repository, setup ccache, extracted proprietary binaries, setup environment and compiled the build... Or something like that... Good luck!

Have a good one!

Can't wait for the update . I'm wondering since people are on the mm version of the ROM how are we going to flash everything . do we have to go back to stock . guess we will wait

hey pure nexus "guys", will pure nexus be updated for 7.0 N version ?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] rezadu:
I'm currently on the 6/21 build of PN. Is it recommended to dirty flash the 8/21 while I wait for the Nougat build to come out and do a clean install then?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Spewmonic:
Looking forward to flashing PN for 7.0! Been far too long on Stock and I'm getting sick of not having AdAway. No, I didn't want to root stock because I wanted for once to feel how it's like to get OTA.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] kipue:
Yes it will.

[Nexus 6P Android Development] ylexot:
Protocol? Wifi is the communications protocol that would be hardware-dependent. The only thing Sprint, Verizon, or anyone else would be able to do is on the software side. I guess it's possible that they could do something like checking for Knox (which nobody is going to port over to the Nexus), but that would be a pretty weird thing to do. They may also check for the IMEI which would probably be much more difficult (or impossible) to overcome.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] AkumaZeto:
I want to root and try this ROM so bad...but 6.0.1 comes out today...hmmm
[Nexus 6P Android Development] tf2manu994:
As there is a new system image, can someone guide me through how to install the modem.img?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nicandris:
6.0.1 is out :) just a heads up
[Nexus 6P Android Development] yung40oz84:
Can somebody please tell me if the ROM will still be capable if I update to the newest factory image? Will thew ROM still work?

Prob not huh? COnsidering it is 6.0.1........
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nicandris:
100% nop. think of the factory image as another rom (well it is)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] cordac:
Sry phaz.. Maybe theese are dumb questions.

The vendor i can see is "Angler_MDB08M_Vendor.zip"(i have MBD08L on the phone) - I hope my phone doesnt explode

In what order should i do that.. (Rom, gapps, vendor)

Thanks alot for the reply

/cor
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jrbxx7:
Yes that order should be fine.

Tapped from my PuRe N6P
[Nexus 6P Android Development] KennyG123:
Not true. In order to use wifi calling on Sprint or Verizon it has to be activated on their end and you must have a phone compatible with their CDMA wifi calling which this phone is not capable of. So no port of any Verizon or Sprint wifi calling apps will make it work.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] PieOfJustice:
Exactly! Don't worry through I'm sure Pure Nexus will get it's 6.0.1 update in a few days or so. Takes time to build from source.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Phazmos:
Rom is m, so you'll need vendor from m.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] ylexot:
What determines "compatible"? Software on the phone connects through wifi to the Verizon servers which routes the call. Where does the phone hardware requirement come into play?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] CrunchMilk:
Does anyone else has scrolling issues? When I browse through search results or just newspaper articles the page jumps during the sweep.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] KennyG123:
Sounds like you do not know much about wifi calling. There is a wifi calling standard that the Nexus 6P supports and T-Mobile does as well. Only T-Mobile and Project Fi currently support the 6P. However Sprint and Verizon do not use these standards but instead use a proprietary protocol that can be used only on carrier branded phones that will support it. If it was as simple as jump on wifi and use, wouldn't anyone be able to use it..not just Verizon customers? Or if it was as simple as you think, wouldn't it work on all Verizon phones instantly and not just the S6 and S6 Edge? Basically what determines a compatible device? The carrier...and Verizon will never support unlocked devices like the Nexus 6P. Here is a fairly recent list of compatible phones for wifi calling by carrier http://www.itcom.itd.umich.edu/cellular/wifi-calling.php

I am sure it will be updated after Verizon adds the Wifi Calling for the S6 and S6 Edge. It is part of the Verizon Advanced Calling

sorry i missed a bunch of questions but there was way to many pages to go through in a timely manner, starting work on 6.0.1 right now its syncing and i am updating blobs and making new vendor zips :)

Are you flashing the arm64 version?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] yung40oz84:
Awesome! Can't wait this rom has been the greatest and I flashed em all. Lol. One bug I found is after downloading files it is like hard to clear them like when I pull down the shade to clear and clear them sometime they come back or the shade goes up quick and won't let me clear them. Only when download files. Just thought I'd mention. Thanks for the great work!

FINALLY!!!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] StormCell:
Ok, I know this is a simplistic query so my apologies: Since Android N is now live for Angler can I use FlashFire to flash it and keep root? I'm currently on PN/Elemental. I'm still learning all this. Thanks.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] DutchDogg54:
No, and there's no need to. You can root N just fine with latest SuperSU. Grab the factory image and follow instructions here #10 for how to flash a factory image. I recommend using this ADB driver instead of installing full android studio, as Heisenberg's guide will suggest, if this is all you're going to be doing.

Granted, I've done it before, but I just did this in 5 minutes. Might take you an hour to feel your way through it your first time, but you'll be better off for having done so, sir!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] RayMcGrath:
Wait for PN nougat build.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] StormCell:
Great, thanks! I already installed that 15 second driver. But maybe I will wait on PN Nougat since I know Nate is hard at work and it should come out any minute now...:))

Does that work?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Juzman:
Think that did it mate! So guess Ninja is still a bit buggy?

Will see if it compiles.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nathanchance:
It's not that it is buggy per say, it just doesn't tell you what the error is and I personally think it slows down the build so I did away with it.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Juzman:
Still compiling so far. Downloading NRD90U factory image, OpenGapps, SuperSU 2.77 and Ninja 3.4.1.

Going to flash the Factory Image first and check it out. Then TWRP, PN7, OpenGapps, Ninja, SuperSU. :)

Many guides here on xda are for ubuntu. I prefer Arch based, try Antergos or try bbqlinux which is put together for Android development.

[Nexus 6P Android Development] kantjer:
There is a "how to build a ROM" link in [MENTION=6842057]nathanchance[/MENTION] sig, that's a good place to start. Or this post, I wrote that some time ago but still valid

Only when building Android 7 you need to install openjdk-8

My personal choice is Linux Mint, it works almost out of the box and it's beginner friendly.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nathanchance:
No, sorry, homemade builds aren't meant to be shared. But definitely try to join the builders party, it is great fun :D
[Nexus 6P Android Development] sixgunmojo:
My 2 cents. If you are new to Linux, and are primarily interested in compiling ROMs and APKs, stick with Ubuntu (maybe Mint). Its easy to install and as you point out many XDA guide are written for Ubuntu and you can cut and paste a lot of the code. Pay attention to what version of Ubuntu the guide is written for though, even different versions can have subtle differences. I'm a Debian man (BunsenLabs ftw), and even though Debian is the father of Ubuntu there are enough differences that sometimes I spend a lot of time on Google trying to figure out why I'm getting errors, except the obvious PEBKAC ones. :o

As for Arch, or any of its variants, never for a newbie - and I say that as someone who ran Manjaro for several months between the death of CrunchBang and BunsenLabs becoming stable enough that it didn't take 2 days to setup and configure. Arch is a very strange duck. :D True story - I successfully did a command line install of OpenBSD on a Dell laptop years before I could ever get Arch working. :eek:
[Nexus 6P Android Development] abcdw654:
How much data does syncing the source involve? Or how much time would you guys estimate it would take for a 100KBps connection to sync the repo? Asking to see if its worth setting up the build environment.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] kantjer:
If I remember correct the source is about 30 GB.

I hope your 100Kbps is a typo otherwise it will take a few weeks to download the source.

On my 200 Mbit/s connection it takes about 20-30 minutes to download the source.

Sent from my Nexus 6P
[Nexus 6P Android Development] abcdw654:
Ah. Thanks. Guess I'll wait for official release then. Shame really, it does look fun.

Edit: Not a typo. Downloaded the factory image today at 120Kilobytes/s which is the max this connection does. I do have a 500Mbits/s connection at home so maybe I'll try it out when I go back.

[Nexus 6P Android Development] rickysidhu_:
I'm having a strange issue...

I wanted to try out Ninja Kernel, so I flashed the stock boot.img to get the stock kernel back (I was on ElementalX), and now I'm stuck on the white Google text.

I tried flashing the radio, bootloader, vendor and boot.img via fastboot on my PC, in hopes that it would fix the issue, but nope, still stuck on the white Google logo :(

I'm on PN 8/21 on the MTC20F build, and I used the images from that build for flashing.

Any help would be appreciated, as I am without a functioning phone at the moment! :(
[Nexus 6P Android Development] panooos:
Did you flash the correct stock boot.img? When I want to get stock boot.img I prefer to dirty flash the Rom.

Make sure you have flashed correct vendor and dirty flash your rom. Should be enough
[Nexus 6P Android Development] rickysidhu_:
Yeah, I extracted the boot and vendor out of the same build number my phone is on (I'm assuming that is the correct stock image). I've done this before, several times, never got this issue in the past:crying:

I've never heard of dirty flashing the entire ROM to get just the stock boot.img back though, is that a better way of doing it?

Also, I got impatient and just flashed back to the factory images and will be clean flashing PN now -__- I'm just glad I was able to get back into my phone with my data intact!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] panooos:
Not sure if better, but most of the times Rom is more handy. Can't be arsed extracting boot.img. :p

Glad you fixed it
[Nexus 6P Android Development] kantjer:
From what I read here you extracted the boot.img from the factory build and not from the PN.zip (that is what you should have done)

As others suggested, next time just dirty flash the ROM again, that's a much saver choice.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] rickysidhu_:
Oh I had no idea the boot.img was supposed to be from the PN zip! I've used the factory boot.img in the past and I guess I got lucky with having 0 issues.

For next time, I'll flash the boot.img from the PN zip or just dirty flash the ROM! Thanks everyone

Now, onto clean flashing PN once again and re-downloading everything :silly::silly:

Root explorer is outdated and doesn't set permissions correctly
[Nexus 6P Android Development] weazie:
Haven't heard about this, really? A couple of days ago there was an update to Root Explorer. I haven't experienced issues with setting permissions yet. But I would like to hear more about this?)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] fz798:
I haven't had any issues with permissions, but, agree, the UI is very outdated and lacking features. Based on your earlier post, I downloaded and almost immediately paid for the full version of FX File Explorer. What an amazing app! Gorgeous UI, and extremely feature rich, without being a bloated commercial pig like everything that CM gets their hands on (ES, QuickPic, yadda).

You sir, rocked it with this recommendation, so much so that I have been pushing it on friends all day. They hate me because I made them spend two bucks too. Bargain at twice the price.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Formhault:
Hey guys...

So, I sold my Nexus 6 (which I miss SO SO BAD already! :crying: ) and bought a 6P.

Now... there's a problem with it. It seems to work on 2G only. If I change "prefered network mode" to 3G or 4G, it doesn't switch to the respective modes. My old N6 was able to jump on 4G in less than a second (everything worked perfectly). With the 6P, that seems to be an impossible task.

I tried to search networks and select network automatically (or manual - my carrier shows up twice in the list, "Vodafone RO" and "RO Vodafone RO", I tried both)... Setting it to 2G, then 3G, then 4G... Nothing happens, it stays on 2G (in Settings - About - Status - SIM status, I see either GSM, or GPRS).

I enrolled my device in beta so I could try Android N (was hoping that would fix it maybe)... nope! I went back to Android M (flashed all the things again), and threw PureNexus on the device.

The issue remains!

The device has not been tampered with before, for what it's worth. Also, I have contacted my carrier and asked them to reset whatever network settings they could from their end (which they did, twice), and also got a SIM replacement (thank God I'm on contract, otherwise this would have been $10 or so, lol). No dice!

Has anyone ever experienced similar problems...? :confused:

Thanks in advance!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] evilryry:
Which model 6p did you get? H1511 (usa) or h1512 (intl). Only thing I can think of is that you possibly got the wrong model and it doesn't support the bands of your carrier. I'm not sure, just taking a stab at it. Not sure though as both 6p's have a decent amount of network support in common. Sorry if this isn't any help.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] wooddale:
Radios aren't as good on 6p also are you on newest ota.
