[Nexus 6P Android Development] tsuttie99:
I am honestly super excited about the 7.1.2 update from Google. I was considering flashing stock to see what it's all about - but sounds like Beans is already on his way to updating.

I remain hopeful that this aosp update is the one Nexus 6P owners have been yearning for since Nougat dropped. I always felt that Nougat was never as stable as the final MM builds. Slower fingerprint auth, faster battery drain/etc. Custom kernels and ROMs (Like this amazing one) have certainly helped, but nothing beats having factory images being rock solid, with ROMs adding the additional features we desire.

Maybe I am being overly optimistic and it'll just be another lackluster release from Google
[Nexus 6P Android Development] 3r0k:
I flashed clean yesterday latest build and I have no fingerprint scanner setup. I did a search and it yielded problems after install and gesture capabilities. Can anyone point me in the right direction.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Relentless D:
Odd, I am having the same issue but it was after flashing the 26n vendor. I have been running the March release off a clean flash without issue then yesterday I flashed another rom (and vendor), didn't like it and restored my nandroid. Everything was working (including fingerprint scanner) but this morning I realized that my vendor was off. I flashed the vendor image and started getting an error that the fingerprint hardware is unavailable.

Dirty flashed rom, kernel and root but the issue persisted.

I restored my nandroid (the same one I restored yesterday) and all seems to be working again.

Needless to say I'll be keeping an eye on it and clean flashing the next build

¯\_(ツ)_/¯
[Nexus 6P Android Development] xflowy:
is there a chance smartbar will be included in a future release? :)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] xucardsfan08:
You can make a Tasker profile that toggles GPS on/off specific to certain apps, if that's what you are looking for.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] psychomaniac189:
No I didn't. But I did just update to the latest version I found on apkmirror. My gpm is always behind on updates. I just update to the latest and hope it's better than the last.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] cunningstunts_1:
Hopefully version 7.6 will solve the random music stopping bug present on 7.5. I've rolled back to the last 7.4 version at the moment.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] 3r0k:
I figured it out. Flash correct vendor and then dirty flash and fingerprint comes back

I'm still running the last MM build of Pure Nexus, because it just works. Nougat took so long to become stable that I just never bothered upgrading.

How's the stability these days? I'm wanting to move on up, but seeing random issues over the last few pages worries me, lol.. Cheers in advance!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Raza Qadri:
Stability is a relative term :)

Also MM gave me the best battery life on my 6p
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Whip Cracker:
Oh man Nougat is worse for battery life?! Bloody hell I'm whinging about battery life on MM! Hahah
[Nexus 6P Android Development] psychomaniac189:

There's a flashable zip that isn't hard to install
[Nexus 6P Android Development] IM0001:
I don't know what customizations you guys are doing, but for my app loaded 128G I got a good bump in battery life going from MM to N. Also stopped messing with custom kernels as that seemed to make things worse over the long run in one form or another for whatever reason, fun as it may be.

Also I also did a "Dirty" upgrade to this latest build from the previous 7.1.1 build. Formatted /System and Caches, loaded up Rom and Vendor. Booted up. Let it settle. And then flashed Magisk 12.0. No other customizations and phone seems to be as good as ever.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] glhelinski:
curious.. I'm thinking of going back to PN MM. are you still able to apply any substratum themes?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] aakanayev:

[Nexus 6P Android Development] psychomaniac189:

[Nexus 6P Android Development] zee24:
Latest update for TD Canada app broke magisk so I'm running a version older try the same with your banking app
[Nexus 6P Android Development] rulyskull:
I agree with this making it so the phone just rebooted would be sweet and not come with any sort of down side. This is a great idea imo.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Blac Caesar:
Are these battery issues I keep reading about lately.. Like, isolated setups? I've been on the latest PN since Beans uploaded it, n I haven't experienced excessive drain at all.. and regularly get 3-4hrs SOT, actively streaming music with GP Music, Bluetooth on my commute to work (45mins-1hr drive).. makes me curious what kinda setups y'all are running, that's causing the issues..

I'm running PN with Elemental X, GhostPepper for gov profile.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Hinesight 20/20:
Yeah, I'm running PN with ElementalX, stock settings, Touchboost enabled and my battery's straight bangin.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] srancier:
To everyone that is still complaining about bad battery life, please read my previous post I quoted here. I am still rocking less than 2% idle battery drain overnight. I am able to get a full day out of my phone without dropping below 60% (if I am not playing a lot of games). I truly feel like I have a brand new phone and no early shutoff issues to speak of (I have let it drain down to 1% multiple times now to condition the new battery.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] xucardsfan08:
I wish I could tell you. I've tried the stock kernel, Elemental, and Franco. GPM ****s them all up when I'm streaming Bluetooth. I don't have any customizations or anything special really setup in the ROM either.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] srancier:
Sorry, this was the initial post I meant to quote....
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Blac Caesar:
Damn.. sucks to hear that. I wish I knew a solid way to insure X amount of battery life, but all setups are relative to each device :/ ..keep tinkering with your set, hopefully you'll lock down something. Yeah, I don't have any customizations either really

For the Swift black theme, What Android version do I put as the main option. I can't seem to get my notification to theme black.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Badger50:
Use v7_1_OMS
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Eric214:
You do know there is no such thing as "conditioning" a Lithium-Ion battery right? That was for the old Ni-Cad (Nickle Cadium) batteries that develop memory based on when you charged the battery. Example being if you constantly charge a Ni-Cad battery at 50% it will start to think that at 50%, the battery should die and you'd lose capacity. These batteries can actually be damaged but letting them run all the way down.

With Lith-Ion batteries, the higher the battery is (such as over 60%) on a routine basis, the longer you battery will keep it's capacity. Look up batteryuniversity.com to learn a bit more if you wish. I just wanted to let you know so you don't harm your new battery. I just added the link to BatteryUniversity to make it easier.

[Nexus 6P Android Development] cosmy032:
Yes, but i have same problem..
[Nexus 6P Android Development] psychomaniac189:
That explains why my battery sucks. I used to just let my phone let my phone get to the single digits for battery life. I do have a battery pack, but never carry it. I might just have to start carrying it. It was the free one from ProjectFi.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Whip Cracker:
Yeah mate, only changed a theme last week. As long as the theme's advised it'll work on MM, it'll be fine.

Is there an updated radio available to flash and keep the rom? I am currently on NUF26K.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] AzraelsKiss:
You can extract the radio image from the N2G47H (7.1.2) factory image and fastboot flash that for the 3.81 radio.

Have a good one!

You shouldn't need to, but the bootloader is also updated in that factory image and should work.

[Nexus 6P Android Development] Nightshadow931:

I don't use Magisk, but I don't see why not. Try it out? Undoing the mod is easy if anything goes wrong: dirty flash your ROM or use the file manager in TWRP to copy the original services.jar file you hopefully made a backup of to system/framework and set the permissions to 0644.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] DEVILOPS 007:
Should work fine as those zips only modify the services.jar file and magisk won't do anything to affect that directory.

[Nexus 6P Android Development] tsuttie99:
Edit: sorry misread - did not see flashfire. But i read in multiple places you shouldn't use flashfire to update bootloader/radio. You can, but not recommended.

Best thing to do is:

1) update your platform-tools for latest ADB/Fastboot - I've heard flashing some partitions without the latest will result in error

2) fastboot flash bootloader

3) fastboot reboot-bootloader

4) fastboot flash radio

5) fastboot reboot-bootloader

Are you using Adaway? GPM continuously tries to contact ad servers with it enabled and trashes battery life.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] xucardsfan08:
I am! Is there a work around for this, besides disabling Adaway?

Edit: I ran GPM and enabled the LogDNS function in Adaway, then white-listed the requests. Hopefully that'll help out.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] mbc663:
anyway to whitelist this?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] xucardsfan08:
I ran GPM and enabled the LogDNS function in Adaway, then white-listed the requests. Hopefully that'll help out.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] kiefferbp:
This won't work unforunately since whitelisting those requests brings most of the ads back. (EDIT: I meant that ads come back throughout the OS as a whole)

The only real solution I could find is to use a VPN that blocks ads but can whitelist them on a per-app basis. It's not an elegant solution though.

I subscribe to GPM so it's annoying having to deal with this crap.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] mbc663:
I've never even seen an ad on Play Music. Guess I've just never ran it without AdAway (I don't even remember not running AdAway on any Android for the last 5+ years, lol). I did whitelist everything on the log because I've noticed Play Music draining big time. I will see how it goes.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] tsuttie99:
I can't even rationalize why GPM needs to check in with ad servers in the first place.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Eric214:
Hence the reason I never ever use GPM. I use PlayerPro since i keep my music on my phone and use use spotify or a no ads Youtube apk that blocks all ads natively. There is very little Google apps I use. They break there apps to frequently for me to use as my base apps.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] kiefferbp:
Yeah, I am not sure why it happens nor why it needs to. I don't see ads in GPM after whitelisting but it solves all of my issues with the app.

By the way, in the logcat you see a lot of network related errors when this happens so it definitely occurs.

What's interesting is that when I went back to MM about a few months ago this stopped happening, and it came back right after I came back to Nougat with a fresh install.

It is definitely a newer issue, only about the last 3-4 weeks. I've used Adaway and GPM since they basically both came out, so the past few years, with no issues.

Do you use Adaway? I'm going to try the solutions about today about whitelisting the GPM ads to see if it helps with the drain.

So that's it. I've also noticed that my phone is warm on the back when I take it out from my pocket, while listening to the music in the background. Started happening a few weeks ago.

I'll try to whitelist specific requests, if that doesn't work, I'm ditching GPM.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] kyzn:
Google play services being crap? Yeah it's a known issue. Unfortunately, you can't fix Google.

Out if curiosity, how long do you listen to Google play music? Just below you, someone noticed GPM pinging the servers without him listening to music. Turns out, it's loading ads constantly but cannot show the ads but get blocked by AdAway.

So that's probably what happened to you too.
