The instructions are pretty simple that are laid out in the second post. It doesn't say to flash gapps anywhere in the procedure for a dirty flash. Might as well do a clean flash now.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Perczzz:
Anyone have problems with the camera app crashing?

Have purenexus + flash kernel + magisk + beans gapps

Slowly trying to troubleshoot it now, want to avoid a clean install if possible (set it up with a clean install). On the correct vendor version.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] r1nstang:
Ran pure Nexus since I got my 6p a year ago. Went over to Resurrection remix for 7.1.2 just to test the waters. And I noticed I no longer have rapid charging at all. Just curious if this is a 7.1.2 issue. Or maybe just an RR issue. Anyone have their charging speeds drop significantly since going PN 7.1.2?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] SGE_DEW:
I didn't flash Gapps to begin with but there were no Gapps on my phone after it booted. So I had to flash gapps. Long story short I went to Dirty Unicorn. Very smooth, clean and stable. Gone give it a shot. Pure Nexus isn't what it used to be. My second angler is on Resurrection Remix which is the best ROM available in my mind. Constantly updated and maintaint.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] hwsenter:
It was a Substratum theme. I only recently started using it and didn't realize there were issues when flashing. I removed the substratum theme and then dirty flashed and it worked. I feel silly now.

And 49.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] haiderijaz:
I am not sure what you are trying to apply here. The guy has clearly told you about the composition of his Bean GAAPs in the specific threads. Infact this is great that many of the bloatware that google has installed on nexus 6p and we don't need, isn't included in bean GAAPs. There are no essentials apps missing. I found everything in my phone. And yes he has limited the content of GAAPs. That's not a problem, one click in playstore in the ALL section and you can install whatever you need from there. If you just want to try a new rom, atleast don't post stuff like this so that people who are new think there is an issue. At the end of the day, it's your choice to try and select any rom as best! :)

I just installed the latest Pure Nexus ROM that was just released yesterday, and now Magisk SafetyNet check fails with CTS profile mismatch. This is with a brand new clean install. Has anyone experienced the Android security update patches for the month of May breaking anything with regards to SafetyNet?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] note3userr:
I'm running DU with the may security patch and passing safety net. Do u have magisk hide enabled? And USB debugging turned off
[Nexus 6P Android Development] ajm786:
I have Magisk hide enabled, but USB debugging turned on. Let me try turning it off.

Turning off debugging didn't do anything.

Edit: it was the bootloader. I had 3.67; the May version is 3.68. I flashed the new one, then flashed Magisk again just to be on the safe side, then booted into the ROM and ran the SafetyNet check and it passed. I don't usually make PEBKAC errors, but this was one of those times I did. :D
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Lucius1972:
Mine crashed too (after dirty flashing the new pn).

What I did:

1. Wiped dalvic/cache

2. Flashed pn 09.05

3. Flashed full gapps 09.05

4. Flashed flash kernel (I am on f2fs)

5. Flashed root (magisk)

6. Bootup system

Now camera works, no issues so far.

I forgot to update my vendor image, and I do not know how to put it into my internal drive. I was installing purenexus_angler-7.1.1-20170317-OFFICIAL, and I was coming from a previous version of a PureNexus and thought that I did not have to update my vendor image. Any help would be much appreciated.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] RayMcGrath:
Perhaps you should build your own ROM .

I can't find telegram channel for pn, search didn't help me.

Edit: sorry for trouble, I found it.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Dek0y:
Ok I'm stumped I've searched all over and read all the instructions but I can't change my filesystems to f2fs. I am on TWRP 3.1.0 and I wiped and even formatted all partitions and then when I seperately click data, change file system, f2fs is not an option. Same with cache, f2fs not an option. I tried TWRP 3.0.3 too to no avail and went back to TWRP 3.1.0..

Why does't F2FS appear as an option?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] kyzn:
What TWRP are you using? Because the official 3.1.0 doesn't support F2FS. You need the modified 3.1.0-7 made by [MENTION=6842057]The Flash[/MENTION].
[Nexus 6P Android Development] StarShoot97:
I have flashed hundreds of roms in my life, including PN, without any issues

Flashed it with a clean install twice (!), when booting up getting a FC on the setup immediately

I doubt I did anything wrong, in fact there was not much to do wrong

Factroy reset - Install Rom - boot up - issue

Can't give a log because I reflashed already
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Dek0y:
You got it, thanks! I was on the official TWRP I got the modded one now, thanks again!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Perczzz:
Didnt work for me, Im thinking it may be something related to a substratum theme. Gonna try a clean install.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Lucius1972:
Aaa yeah maybe it's the substratum, I did this without substratum installed but now running Compound theme.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] kapiroski:
Can't actually disable google contact sync?

Hi! I've done my obligatory part of searching, trying and testing various ideas to resolve this on my own but with no success, so I hope to not get screamed at for asking this.

So, I did an absolutely clean flash of latest PN, including radio and vendor. Like everything absolutely from zero. Set it up as usual, step by step manually, no Titanium Backup restore or something of that kind.

I have no issues or complaints except for this one that I discovered.

The issue I've run into is inability to disable Google Contacts sync. I have 2 Google accounts, both are added to the device. On both accounts in phone settings - accounts - google - Contacts sync is set to OFF. The problem is that Contacts still get synced. Here is the actual screenshot so you believe me.

What makes me think there is some deeper issue than what a user like me would be able to solve is that even if the sync is set to OFF there's still the sync icon with arrows appearing there (it's for Gmail in the screenshot but the same happens for Contacts setting as well).

What I've tried is (and nothing has helped):

- removing and adding the Google accounts

- wiping cache

- clearing storage (manage apps - clear storage)

- checking if I have those accounts in some other places from where the sync chould happen. Well, there isn't.

So either I"m not seeing some Nougat-specific setting somewhere (I just moved from M to N, so don't have that much experience) or there is a bug or something else.

Will appreciate your advice and ideas. For now the only option I see is deleting Contacts from Google Contacs but that is kind of a wrong approach.

Thanks!

Gone through multiple clean installs, just flashing the basic stuff and cannnot get camera working. Really driving me nuts.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Lucius1972:
You use a custom kernel?

Are you on Ext4 or F2FS?

Flashed latest vendor?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] HerrT:
Probably a hardware fault (like mine)?

To make sure: make a backup and flash the factory image...
[Nexus 6P Android Development] 1DvsBstrd:
Anybody gotten the new fingerprint unlock at boot to work properly?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Perczzz:
nope just pure nexus. I am using cloud backup though.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Lucius1972:
One more thing to try but it`s a little work.

EDIT: Make sure you flashed the correct vendor file (N2G47O) radio (03.81) and bootloader 03.68 also.

1. Reboot into recovery.

2 .Connect device to PC via USB.

3. Copy all important files/folders from Internal Storage on device to PC using file manager on PC.

4. Then format data!

5. Reboot into recovery.

7. Copy latest PN, Full Bean Gapps, Custom kernel (if used) and your root (Magisk, SuperSu file) from PC into Internal Storage

8. Wipe everything but Internal Storage (Dalvik/ART Cache, System, Data, Cache).

9. In TWRP, flash PN, BeansGapps, Flash Kernel, then root (Magisk, SuperSu).

10.Reboot into System.

11.Go through initial setup and restore apps from cloud/Tibu.

12.Copy any other files, to be kept, from the files saved to PC in step 5 above using file manager on PC.

13.Complete setup of apps and settings.

That should do it.

Nope, doesn`t work/stick on clean or dirty flash, already reported by several people.

1) Talking down a dev or a Rom, IN THEIR THREAD, is disrespectful, poor etiquette, and serves no purpose but to insult or incite. If you are NOT happy with a dev or their work, feel free to move on and try something else. As far as freedom of speech; having the right to tell a person they are hideously ugly, and a fat tub of lard, in no way makes it right.

2) If/when a user trolls, insults or incites, PLEASE do not engage or respond to them (it's extremely tempting, I get it), simply REPORT the post and let Moderation staff address the situation.

3) thanks again to the PN regulars who are maintaining your cool and respectful tone while trying to steer the thread in a positive direction.

tl;dr if it isn't helpful, and respectful, you probably shouldn't post it, ignore the trolls :D

I've cleaned up the thread from all the nonsense. Just to add to what [MENTION=4670411]Az_Biker[/MENTION] has said, he's pretty much hit it on the nail. At the same time though, no one is saying their isn't issues with ROMs or anything but there is a way to go about it. Please post politely with relevant logs and descriptions otherwise how do you expect developers to fix problems?

Since others were on about age, I'm 23 ;)

Have a good day all and enjoy PN! :D

Since upgrading to Android 7.x.x on stock I can't connect to my Bluetooth car stereo (apparently a fairly common issue). Did anyone have that problem on stock before installing this rom and found it fixed after installing this? Or is the issue with 7.x.x itself and affects all roms running it?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] sonysingh1983:
Hi, when doing a clean install and wiping system, what does the system wipe actually wipe? In my storage, system is taking space of about 4 GB. Will it wipe all of that or just some files?

Does PN replace the current system file i have when I flash it? Sorry for my bad wording....
[Nexus 6P Android Development] KaM1KaZ3:
I have the same too, I tried all I could think of I can't even Bluetooth tether with FoxFi anymore. Not sure what to do now, if you get it working please post you're steps of success. :good:

Are gapps still included in rom
[Nexus 6P Android Development] AlkaDragos:
No. As you can see in Bean's latest update post, the GAPPS are linked there as part of update. ;) they were removed like 2 builds ago.

Do I need to do anything if I am dirty flashing the latest version over the previous where my data and cache are f2fs ?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] bossofindy:
Thanks been awhile since I was on pn
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Face_Plant:
You will have to:

1. Flash update

2. Install root of your choice (SuperSU, Magisk, etc)

3. Install kernel that supports F2FS (Flash, Franco, etc)

DO NOT boot without flashing a kernel that supports F2FS first. It will revert to EXT4 and ruin your day. When you dirty flash the update it removes root, custom kernels, and any other modifications you made (WakeBlock, custom boot animations, system apps you removed, etc).
[Nexus 6P Android Development] pipnmike:
I usually clean flash, but decided to dirty flash over the April build. I made sure all apps were updated. Cleared out both dalvik and cache. Flashed the vendor, rom, new gapps, EX kernel, and root. The gapps were flashed by mistake, but everything seems ok on my end after a day without any crashes or weird behavior.

[Nexus 6P Android Development] Face_Plant:
Laggy in what way? Which GApps did you install?

Even on a good day, Play Store takes a good 2-3 seconds to launch for me. Keep in mind, most things presented in the Play Store are loaded from Google servers, so a bad internet connection can also slow things down.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] alienflorina:
Question time : I'm a bit new to PN I'm on April's release. Is it really necessary to update every month?

I mean I read the change log and it doesn't seem an important update to me. Are there any under the hood updates coming from Google r7 to r8 or is it only about security patches?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Neilkesh:
Hi i was dirty flashing the new may upadte from the april one. And the flashing process on twrp stops at about 5%. I have tried flashing it multiple times but i get the same result. I don't want to lose my data and flash a asystem image and then flash my way to pure nexus again. Is there a way to mount the internal memory without going through the long route?? I have the latest twrp installed. Bootlader is working just fine. Please HELP!!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Relentless D:
Might be a bad download.

Download a fresh copy and check the md5 to make sure it is good. Plug your phone in to a computer, bump it over and flash.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Neilkesh:
Thanks for the quick reply, the question is how do i put the newly downloaded ROM on my cell as its not getting connected to the pc??
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Relentless D:
I don't think there is any special trick. I have always been able to plug my phone into a computer whether it was booted to the rom or TWRP and have it mount. FWIW I use the stock USB C cable into a USB C port of my laptop.

If it isn't working I would try the stock cable (if possible). If not possible, make sure the USB cable isn't a power only cable. I have tried to use cables that come with generic power bricks before and they don't always have the data wired up.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Neilkesh:
Bro, the cable is pluged in and also in the twrp it says there is no OS installed(i just saw this now). So i cannot open up the internal memory like usual using the MTP mode. Now there is nothing in the file explorer on my pc. I just want to mount the internal memory and copy the ROM and flash it through twrp. Cheers
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Relentless D:
You got me then.

Maybe fix/repair the file system if it is corrupted and not being recognized. Also check device manager on your computer to make sure there isn't a driver issue.

You shouldn't need to mount anything in twrp. It should show your phone on your computer when you plug it in.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Exodusche:
Try rebooting into TWRP and see if phone storage shows up in Windows should be able to access it.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Neilkesh:
no it doesn't. If it did i wouldn't ask for help :)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Exodusche:
I get that but sometimes I've had it where niether was reading and simple reboot for whatever reason fixed the issue. :)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] bkayy:
Great rom think will settle on this one
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Neilkesh:
Did some googling and using the sideload feature now, atleast the ROM is now flashing. Will keep you posted if this works. Cheers

It works now the sideload feature helped
[Nexus 6P Android Development] KhaMoustafa:
In case of dirty flashing from cleaned flashed April, while am using themes. Do I need to uninstall all theme and reset to default b4 start the dirty process. Because, I do remember on old PN version sometimes ago, there was a step of doing this, but this step is not existing right now. So, I just need to be sure so that hopefully I'll not face any problems while dirty flashing..
[Nexus 6P Android Development] haiderijaz:
Thank you for the suggestions! Turns out F-stop is the winner! It's a great replacement to QuickPic! :)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] sixgunmojo:
Not that it would have helped you now, but I got one of these when I bought my 6P. It is a flash drive with usb-c and usb-a connectors. I do all of my flashing off of it as I frequently wipe internal storage. I have never had a problem mounting it in either TWRP or from any rom. It also fits nicely on my key chain so if anything goes sideways while I'm away from a computer I have all the files necessary to either restore a nandroid or do a complete clean install.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Stylo King:
I wouldn't advice you to dirty flash as some users were experiencing System UI crash while others have no issues at all. Also it is an upgrade from RC6 to RC8 so do a clean flash.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Leegalaxy:
I updated my vendor image when I upgraded to PN 7.1.2 (which is compulsory) but when I reboot, I get a toast notification that says my vendor image doesn't match. It hasn't been an issue but I need to look into it.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] JRJ442:
The vendor needs to be updated every month when there's a security update. There's a link to the appropriate vendor image in his release post. Or it can be found in the OP.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] mikexda:

anybody know why my google now app weather notification has been telling me the weather for the wrong city recently? i live in chippewa falls, and it keeps telling me weather for wheaton. i dl the gps status & toolbox and reset agps and stuff, but it is still giving me weather for the wrong city. :(
[Nexus 6P Android Development] AlkaDragos:
Well, first you must make sure that your current Home address from google now it's not set to wrong city / country. After that, you can check the location google it's receiving (from your phone) by opening Google Chrome, search for something in search bar then scroll all the way down until you see something like "Address, Country - From your device / internet address" and check if it's correct. After this steps if the address it's correct then can be something server-side.

Fun fact :D today i was thinking that i don't receive weather update notification any more from Google Now, but don't know why. I was receiving them until some time ago, i have the settings for notification and weather update cards turned on but still no luck. :/

Cheers,
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Az Biker:
Make sure your GPS is on. Mine does that once in a great while until I manually enter my current location, then it updates. Maybe try a diff weather app. For me, Weather Bug only provides general locations like just the name of the major city that I'm in (ie: San Diego is displayed no matter where I go in that city).

Accuweather provides more detailed locations, like individual names of smaller areas of the city, and suburbs (ie: Hilltop, Coronado, El Cajon, not just "San Diego")

Hope that helps.
