Flashed the new vendor image and it broke root. Phone is not rooted now :(
[Nexus 6P Android Development] just_visiting:
Rom is now non-root.

Do people even read the thread these days?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] CatsEyeX:
Root was removed from the latest version of PN. You have to flash SuperSU from recovery.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] longview41:
I know there are 2000+ pages in this thread, but that has been answered 2000+ times.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] just_visiting:
The simple search function is always available. So there should be no excuses what so ever.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] darkcyber20:
Why would you post a non-root ROM? Really? What sense does that even make?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] just_visiting:
Again did u bother reading the thread?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Cywair:
I can change the lockscreen clock font, but a few minutes later the font will become the default.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] CatsEyeX:
The reason is so you have the choice of system vs. systemless root. Not all custom ROMs are rooted. I know that AICP for one is not.

[Nexus 6P Android Development] Kapak13:
Random question, sorry if this isn't a good place to ask but it is still relevant to this ROM.

After a complete clean flash, even wiping internal, does the android system partition 10.33 gigs?

On my 64 gig nexus 6p, every ROM I flash shows that its using 10.33 gigs of internal storage for android system.

Just wanting some info about this.

Thanks
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jmtjr278:
You fastbooted userdata is why. Fix it in twrp.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Kapak13:
Sorry if this is a dumb question, but how do I fix it in twrp?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jmtjr278:
Boot to recovery. Select wipe. Select advanced wipe. Then select data. Then repair or resize. Boom. Profit.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Kapak13:
Mk I'm a bit confused... Let me start by telling you how I personally clean flash...

When I boot into twrp, I go to wipe, advanced wipe and select all the options, data, cache, dalvik, internal, yadda yadda, literally every wipe possible.

Stay with me here, I know its weird and scary.. But limited knowledge and a Mac (no pc available) make things tough for me..

I then reboot recovery (times when I don't do this I can't connect to my Mac. Read on and I'll explain)

Once its rebooted, I plug my phone into my Mac and Android File Transfer pops up showing me my phone and its internal files, which is all wiped except for a folder called TWRP.

I then drag and drop the ROM and gapps from my Mac to my phone via Android File Transfer.

Once complete, I hit install in twrp and flash away then reboot to let the ROM load.

I know this is all wrong to do, but it works...

Anyways, even though I'm wiping data, I still get 10.33 GB of android system used.

Any info?

Also, if you know where I can find solid info on terminal commands for Mac, that would be greatly appreciated. I've only been able to find a lot of contradicting info..
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jmtjr278:
Do you have twrp installed? If you are looking for fastboot command to fix it just fastboot format userdata. Or follow my twrp instructions. Also if you are looking for a step by step guide with command there is a top notch guide in the general section right at the top by [MENTION=6555069]Heisenburg[/MENTION]
[Nexus 6P Android Development] RayMcGrath:
Maybe the nexus phone should not be sold to the general public. ...

Iono
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Kapak13:
Awesome, thank you. I just read up on resizing partitions in twrp on reddit. Looks like this is a pretty known issue with quite a few people. Didn't know how to search for it before you chimed in with the info I needed. Thank you very very much.

I wish I could hit the thanks button for you, but I apparently gave my last daily thanks to you on your last reply to me. I'll get you back when I can
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jmtjr278:
If you flash factory image again do NOT flash usetdata or you will have this issue again. The factory image userdata is for the 32gb variant. That is why it seems to be an issue. Because they have all flashed userdata.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] RayMcGrath:
I'll hit thanks for you.

The magic word;

Read. [emoji108] [emoji2]
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Kapak13:
Does the user data issue happen with PureNexus as well?

When I got this phone, I first rooted, flashed recovery and flashed PureNexus, I've never once gone back to a factory image. Or am I misinterpreting what you mean about factory image?

---------- Post added at 04:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:28 AM ----------

Awesome, thank you!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jmtjr278:
Once you fix the issue as long as you do not fastboot userdata from a Google factory image you will be fine. Read the guide I mentioned. Learn and do things the right way. Also, the search button is your friend. Use it early and often. You may not always get the must friendly responses if you don't at least attempt to solve your own issue with a Google starch or a search of the relevant XDA post. Have fun and learn and read.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Kapak13:
So I followed your instructions to a T and android system STILL says 10.33GB...

And I swear I tried my own searching for about a week, even asked in other threads. Most answers were "my android system says (ranged from 7-17GB)"

Google searches didn't bring anything up about the android system issue I'm having, but rather brought up random stuff about android OS.

I am usually too embarrassed to ask any questions unless I've searched, read, and still don't have an answer. Like now..

Still says 10.33GB... Would it be advantageous to clean wipe everything, THEN go to wipe data and resize, THEN flash ROM and gapps?

And thank you, I really appreciate your time and help
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jmtjr278:
Delete
[Nexus 6P Android Development] RayMcGrath:
Yes. If I had this going on, I would back up all important data, pictures, files, etc. Then wipe it all and flash super clean. Enema clean. Good luck! [emoji106]
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jmtjr278:
Did you attempt to resize data partition? Sounds like you hit system. You are taking about usable storage space, right? Because that would be data partition.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Kapak13:
Mk, thank you. I can provide screenshots to show you all what exactly I'm talking about.

I will probably need to state, for your information, that I'm not currently on PureNexus, hence why I'm able to specifically see "android system" in storage and USB in settings.

But even when I'm on PureNexus, I did the math and with no apps or internal data, I'm still missing 10.33 GB from total storage.

When on PureNexus, storage and USB shows 53.67GB free

---------- Post added at 04:52 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:50 AM ----------

I went to twrp, wipe, advanced wipe, selected data, hit repair or change file system, hit resize file system.

Was that wrong?

---------- Post added at 05:03 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:52 AM ----------

Hahaha mk, I'm gonna wait to see if nathanchance has any info and see if anyone else chimes in with any other possible solutions before I go that route.

And I will definitely update all findings here to help add knowledge to anyone wondering
[Nexus 6P Android Development] sToRm1nG:
There is nothing wrong with that but system could also refer to system partition. We are assuming that you are talking about internal storage (when you connect your phone to your computer) when the 10gig issue pops up, right?

Because the system partition would of course be much smaller then the 64gigs. :)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Kapak13:
Hmm I'll have to reboot into recovery to see if there is any other option to press other than resize file system after I've selected data in advanced wipe and selecting repair or change file system. (I may have misread what you mean here)

I have added a screenshot of my issue. There an extra 6.31 gigs I have used up in "other" which is my nandroid backup I made before trying the data wipe/resize.

When I connect to my computer, android file transfer only says "17 items, 44.72GB available", it doesn't state my full storage.

And now that I think of it, when I do an uber clean wipe, I never checked what it says for storage in android file transfer. I will check if I go the uber clean route again and try to resize data again
[Nexus 6P Android Development] sToRm1nG:
You will never end up in having the complete storage. From your screenshot I would say this is exactly what it should look like.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Kapak13:
[MENTION=5504303]sToRm1nG[/MENTION]

This might be useful info for you

When I'm on PureNexus or any AOSP based ROM, my internal storage in storage and USB only states that I have 53.67GB available total.

It doesn't show "android system" or show the storage used bar within the available space.

Just a long blank bar with my apps taking up about a gig of it and a grand total of 53.67 GB of internal storage.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] sToRm1nG:
Android system is never supposed to be larger than that. I should be fine with how the phone is formatted right now.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Kapak13:
I do realize I will never have all 64 gigs to use, but I just felt that 10.33 GB was a bit much.. I'm assuming its the space used to house the android operating system files (if that makes sense), but what I don't get is that the ROM file size is about 300-400mb, so let's unzip that and say its about a gig of space taken up, what is the other 9+ gigs being used for?

I really hope I'm not sounding extremely dumb right now haha

I'm assuming its a partition for the main guts of the ROM, but I'm not getting why its needing so much space.

Its been a long time now, but I feel that back when I was flashing on my old galaxy s3, it gave me close to the entire internal storage space, minus about a gig for what I'm assuming to be the ROM.

---------- Post added at 05:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:22 AM ----------

According to other users I've asked to post screenshots of their android system space, one person had 7 GB and another had 17GB, my only idea for this would be because one was a 32 GB model (7gb android system) and the other was 128 GB (17gb android system). But that's what's also causing confusion for me, why would it fluctuate between phones?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] TonyTurboII:
I get stuck voicemail notification on Sprint from time to time. I find the best way is to use the dial pad commands to get the voicemail system to hang up on me. After you listen to a message and delete it or save it, keep hitting * until it says goodbye and hangs up. Every time I use this method the voicemail icon goes away immediately.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] 83097markcynt:
Works fine for me. Used AP without issue a few hours b4 your post.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jmtjr278:
Anytime something weird is going in and normal avenues aren't fixing it fastbooting factory images is a must. Follow that guide in the general section and then try pure nexus again. Other than that I'm tapped for ideas.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] EstherTakumi:
Woah nice, any setting for this ROM?

It seem my Antutu test only below 80k, try it many time, don't know what setting to make it go up 80k
[Nexus 6P Android Development] oldman_58:
How many TWRP backups do you keep on your phone? Make sure in TWRP you have compressed selected. I have a single backup on my phone it is 5.5GB so if you have a several you may be eating up a lot of space.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] ts_mpls:
Can I ask what version of AP you have installed? Also, do you use fingerprint unlock?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] RayMcGrath:
I have a 128 gb model. It shows that I only have 111 here. On a completely clean stock image I can get 109 gb free out of 128.

That's what the os takes (with all the Google apps)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Unforgivenlife1986:
AP also working fine for me. If you have root installed on system it will not work, systemless root and android pay working fine. The version of AP that I'm using is 1.4.126456861

---------- Post added at 01:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:29 PM ----------

First I wanted to say thank you to the developer for such a great rom, once again I flashed and everything working as it should flawlessly. One quick question though, is there a way to change when swiping down from the notification bar that it will only bring up the notifications and not all the little settings button every time I do it, its annoying that everything shows up and I have to swipe back up to see my notifications.

THanks
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Gizmoe:
That's what it's supposed to say. Its what it says on stock too. Its telling you what is available for storage/USB. Not the entire size of the internal storage chip. A static amount needs to be available to system. Its not dynamically allocated.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] indian84:
Settings - PureNexus Settings - Notification Drawer - Quick Pulldown. Turn it off..
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Unforgivenlife1986:
Thanks, it worked!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] ts_mpls:
Yep, systemless root here. As I said, I did a safetynet check and I'm fine there, it's when I actually go to use it somewhere that it never actually works. When I go to pay, I hold my phone (unlocked) over the terminal, it vibrates and pops up AP with an image of my credit card. But instead of getting the nice green check mark, it tells me I need to use my fingerprint to unlock. If I do, it just goes back and tells me to again.

For now, I've gone back to the previous version (1.4.125363284) but I haven't tried it out yet. [MENTION=3897476]Unforgivenlife1986[/MENTION], do you use fingerprint unlock?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] vikramjatt11:
I lost root access when I flashed the latest build. I can still reboot into recovery, just can't give root rights to any app because root is not detected. Did anyone else have this issue or a fix?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] RayMcGrath:
I'm very sorry for your loss.

Did you read the post about the new build?

Maybe flash supersu.

[Nexus 6P Android Development] TBacker:
Just have to weigh in. Loving the ROM - it's the only one I have run on my 6P. Clean, stable. Thanks for all of the hard work!

Hating layers. Cumbersome, unintuitive. Have never had a theming system cause so many force closes and issues. Now a bunch my apps need to be reloaded because uninstalling a theme has caused them to FC all of the time.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] vikramjatt11:
Thank you. I should have just read the FAQ, I've gotten so used to just coming by once a month, grabbing the new update and flashing it. Plus the change log didn't have anything this time, so I just flashed and have been without root for 10 days now. Just flashed superSU and good to go now. Thanks!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Az Biker:
The new build DOES NOT include SuperSU (Root) due to the option of wanting systemless, or system root. Beans has left it up to the user.

The FAQ in the 2nd post under OP has the steps depending on your choice of root.

So, the WiFi disconnect we discussed yesterday. Seems like the incidences occur when the device goes into deep sleep. I have checked and keep WiFi on during sleep is checked. Don't know what else to try or what else it could be. Any thoughts? Anyone experiencing similar and if not why not? And yes, my vendor is updated and WiFi works normally when screen is on. Just disconnects and reconnects after walking from deep sleep. Also, after a long Pandora and any other streaming service stutters horridly.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Kapak13:
Awesome, thank you. I will do that

Edit- seems others are saying my question is a normal occurrence. I'm just gonna leave it alone for now :)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Az Biker:
Try using this process when applying layers from -setiawanjimmy (Magpie)

Open layers manager > uninstall > select all > Remove overlays > reboot

Open Layers Manager in APPS > clear data > won't remove your layers apps

Open layers manager > settings > turn on "HIDE unnecessary overlays"

Open your layer theme > check boxes you want to theme > reboot from phone (do not choose 'reboot' from layers manager)

Enjoy.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Kapak13:
I currently only have one. I backed up everything possible (hit all the check boxes). I do know about it taking up 6 gigs, I just have an "android system" partition taking up 10.33 GB. It doesn't show (android system) up on AOSP ROMs, but the space is still taken up behind the scenes (some cm ROMs show android system).

---------- Post added at 03:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:11 PM ----------

Mk, so its normal then. And it appears I may be right about how different sized internal storage takes up different amounts, it looks like yours takes up about 17 GB, where mine, 64 GB takes up 10.33 and 32 GB models use up 7 GB. Its just really interesting how they differ.

---------- Post added at 03:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:13 PM ----------

Gotcha, awesome thank you! I feel better now :)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] sixgunmojo:
The screen shot you have shows the usage of your internal storage. For some reason your phone thinks there is a huge (10.33 gigs) chunk of data there that it classifies as Android System (I got some WAGs on that, but not important). If the "other" is a nandroid that you made prior wiping data, you are wiping the wrong partition. You can wipe your data partition all day long and resize it as much as you want (bad idea IMNSHO, but that's a whole other discussion), but the data in internal storage will still remain. You need to make sure in TWRP > wipe > advanced > internal storage is checked. If this doesn't fix your problem then you should probably do a google search for "adb tools mac" (to get adb and fastboot), pick the instructions that work best for you, and at the very least run "fastboot format userdata' and more than likely follow the steps here, section 9 (read at least 2-3 times to make sure you got it).
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Kapak13:
Awesome, thank you! I'll give it a read when I get some time today and look into it. I appreciate your help :)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] RayMcGrath:

Are you aware if anyone determined the issue with Pandora and this build?

Thanks.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] sapphirecoupe:
I saw the same problem at a DD last night... I've been using ap fine for a while, but I did recently have to restore a backup, then I had to delete the security file in data/system.

Are you running from a backup? I may try to clean install later this week, and see if that's the problem.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] 83097markcynt:
Yes I use fingerprint. AP version is 1 . 4 .126456861
[Nexus 6P Android Development] luigidk:
Android pay requires fingerprint unlock
[Nexus 6P Android Development] chikimonke:
I don't believe fingerprint is required, just some form of secure lock screen.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] ts_mpls:
Correct. That's why one of the supposed workarounds in the other thread I read is to remove fingerprint and just use PIN or password. But I really don't want to do that.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] KennyG123:
How about we all just agree to not ever answer a "Ermagahd! I lost root!! Fix me!" post?

It seems every time someone posts this 3 or 4 people answer them. If they are flashing something to a $600 phone and cannot be bothered to read the 1st post, FAQ or a page or two back, then that is a shame. Maybe they will read it if no one answers. Also throw in "Where is CMTE build?" questions in that batch. Or just one person answers all those question with a link to the FAQ. Sound good?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] fz798:
And "I can't connect to Wifi" or "My Wifi keeps disconnecting"
[Nexus 6P Android Development] CatsEyeX:
I agree, the same questions about WiFi have been asked over and over again.

But for me it is not clear if there is more than 1 WiFi "issue". When I flashed NP for the first time, I did not know there was a new vendor image that needed to be flashed. But for me, WiFi did not work at all. I was not even shown any WiFi networks to connect to.

But is there a second problem where you can connect to WiFi but it drops from time to time? As opposed to not being able to connect to WiFi at all?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Az Biker:
So, all in agreement that we're no longer answering:

- I lost root

- which vendor

- wifi broke

- gestures missing

- where's cmte

Just going to point them to FAQs and 'search' function...
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Einwod:
See post number 2.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] fz798:
I have been experiencing both WiFi and Sync "turning themselves off" when the phone sits for long periods of time (e.g. overnight) on both the 6P and also on my Note 4. Both phones running 6.0.1, both phones rooted with xposed and Greenify (Donate version). I finally got this to stop happening 100% on the 6P by disabling Greenify's Aggressive Doze and Shallow Hibernation options. However, even disabling these on the Note 4, I am still seeing WiFi and Sync both turning off overnight... not every night, but often enough that it's noticeable. Since I've turned off these two Greenify options on the N4 as well, and, since this never happened on the N4 on KK or LP, I'm wondering if it's not Doze being just a little trigger-happy?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] efan3719:
since they put not effort into finding the answer themselves we should put no effort into answering it for them. simply reply "post 2" and nothing else.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] hinxnz:
Hey man not sure if been following your posts properly but with internal storage, take away all the other partitions as they are on the same flash and also there needs to be room for the actual file system, larger the partition, more room the fs needs, which may explain why the 3 different size models report back differently.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] daihl92:
I clean flashed most recent a couple days ago and have everything set up and everything is running fine but I hadn't realized that root wasn't by default anymore. Is it safe to flash supersu now after everything is set up? Or should I clean flash again and flash supersu before first boot?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] popper668:
#2 post has all the answers

http://goo.gl/BdzZaH
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Kapak13:
That was what I was leaning towards believing. Its still kinda confusing why it would differ so greatly though. If a 32 GB model only needs 7 GB of file system to run properly, then why would the 64 GB need 10 GB and the 128 GB model need 17 GB?

In my inexperienced opinion, they should all only need 7 GB.

Thank you for your reply!

Not sure if my signature shows up.. It doesn't for me on the XDA labs app, but I've been giving out thanks left and right and XDA limits me to only 8 per day, so I'd give you a thanks but it won't let me.

Speaking of which, how do I go about getting unlimited thanks? Or is that even possible?
