Hold on a minute, I can translate symbols...

He said, Google that stat! Short for statistic, or, in the medical field, stat means RIGHT NOW.

Go HERE, and enter MD5 :D

When you download a file, it will have a md5 verification chain of numbers/letters... If the md5 of the downloaded file doesn't match the md5 listed where you downloaded, you have a bad/corrupt file.

You will save yourself a lot of heartache using Google, and the "thread search" function at the top of the thread.

Yeah I saw all that **** but wtf does any of it mean? I think I've found something that I can try
[Nexus 6P Android Development] GreyCelt:
I think I'm going crazy or something... Has the option to expand all notifications in the notification panel been removed from settings with the 3/17 update? I can't find it anywhere in settings. I've used the search in settings and manually looked through each setting and just can't find it. ?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] alghaib:
Ok here is my issue. I downloaded pn 3-17, did a clean flash and now all hell has broken loose.

I wish I could screenshot what is happening but I can't. I will try again to explain. After I flash, my phone boots up to an unlock screen. Instead of me being able to type in my pass code, it ask me to speak. I can't do anything from this point. I tried to re-flash pn 2-15 and then open gapps and I get the same thing. If I don't flash the gapps (on 2-15) I can't get on the web to download another pn 3-17. Is anyone experiencing anything close to this?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] efan3719:
you sure you're doing a full clean flash? you shouldnt be getting a lock screen on a clean flash. you'd get the setup screen. try a full clean flash and use these gapps instead. might help. https://xdaforums.com/android/software/gapps-dynamic-gapps-t3487192
[Nexus 6P Android Development] RayMcGrath:
Gapps are now included with the ROM. Follow flashing instructions. Try a new download. Wipe everything except storage.

Go to flash's instructions. Good luck!

/me is really exercising extreme self control right now.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Face_Plant:
Generally, MD5 is a way to verify that the file you downloaded isn't corrupt or has been messed with by a third party.

Example: you download the latest Pure Nexus from Android File Host, but something funky happens along the way and your download gets corrupted. If you check the MD5 you will see that it doesn't match the MD5 on AFH, which should be a red flag to not use that download and try again.

Another example: you think you're downloading the latest and greatest kernel for your 6P, but in reality a bad guy has replaced the download with a modified version that gives him remote access to your phone so he can steal all of your selfies. If you attempt to verify the MD5 it will not match.

I cannot change the font overlay in sub. I have system/draw over other apps. No go. In fact I am unable to change any themes. I don't know why.

PS: I've cleared cache in sub app, running Magisk SU too.

[Nexus 6P Android Development] psychomaniac189:
you didnt install the magisk manager from the play store? or did you already have that installed? im planning on switching from SuperSu to magisk so im doing a little reasearch on how to do the switch successfully.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] saishiva:
Thanks a lot...I finally installed substratum and brought swift dark theme from play store.

I'm not able to theme Google plus. I have selected 7.1 oms in substratum as current android version. Any idea or suggestion?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] RCDuke:
All you need to do is flash the magisk.zip file and download the Magisk Manager app from the Play Store or the thread. This is done AFTER you flash the ROM and you DO NOT need to flash a separate superuser zip file. That's where I messed up but I eventually figured it out.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] CacheOnlyPlease:
Is the Google app crashing for anyone else every time you say "Ok Google"?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] kyzn:
Did you clean flash? Because I haven't encountered any of the previous issues you've posted. Also using Magisk. Substratum works, overlay and fonts.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] radionerd:
Try clearing Google App Cache.

Settings, Apps, Google App, Storage, Clear Cache
[Nexus 6P Android Development] CacheOnlyPlease:
No go. I even tried dirty flashing the Rom again (I initially clean installed). Does it work on yours? I might try clean flashing again tomorrow.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] dubedollars:
I apologize in advance if this is the wrong place to post this. The main thread is almost 3500 pages long. I've looked through a good bit and got the gist of what to do. My question is about the vendor image to flash with the 3/17 update. I'm currently on the latest stock 7.1.1 rooted with twrp. Vendor IMG is N4F26T and baseband is 03.78. The NUF26N says it's for March's Verizon update. My phone isn't a Verizon phone. Stick with the N4F26T? I understand a clean flash is needed going from stock to custom.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] radionerd:
Yes, I checked it works OK, google.

I did a dirty flash and had/have a few minor issues:

Titanium would hang on start, cleared cache and it gave a new welcome. Just backed up.

Gboard Google keyboard fc's, still playing around to fix.

Maybe related to my Gboard problem, Swift Dark won't build a few apps. It shows google Gboard (com.android.inputmethod.latin), Gboard (com.google.android.inputmethod.latin) and Calculator (com.goole.android.calculator), and contacts (com.google.android.contacts)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Spannaa:
The post you've quoted links you to the correct vendor image to use!

FYI: The vendor images are the same in both factory image versions, the only difference between them is the radio.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] radionerd:
Obviously there are several conflicts with old stuff. I just wiped system, dalvik, and caches. Best fix would be a clean flash.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] cvelazquez:
Titanium working here after clean flash of 3/17. Using Magisk, too! It IS restoring with data with no problem.

Note: I HAD experienced restore problems under 2/15. Prior to wiping data I did the following: 1) deleted all my existing backups (I have them saved to an OTG sdcard anyway); 2 ) I changed my settings to NOT backup external data; 3) I backed up all my user apps.

Just sharing my sequence of events

Good luck! :)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Einwod:
I already had the Magisk Manager installed. It was a dirty flash over the previous version. The switch was very easy. Just use SuperSU to cleanup in the settings and then flash the Magisk 11.1.zip file in TWRP.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Rimher:
Wow this was super dumb, I hadn't understood that the password on TWRP was actually my pin. Thanks a lot! :o
[Nexus 6P Android Development] frezd91:
Clean flash and everything works perfectly. Just wondering if I need to manually flash radio 3.78 cause I'm not on Verizon and PN come with 3.79.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Malsan07:
I'm not on Verizon either and didn't flash radio. Everything works fine as usual.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] kishke:
I always wondered, why isn't the vendor image included with the ROM? Is there any technical reason or it just a matter of convince?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Spannaa:
Pure Nexus doesn't include a radio so, if you're on 3.79, that's what you were on before ;)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] MrMiami81:
Can someone link a thread with the latest radios? I haven't seen one on the forum for the 6p. Thanks.

I had Google play services problems aswell, it didn't let the phone sleep correctly. Seems fixed now, was a problem on their end probably

Open Gapps & 3/17

Anyone using Open Gapps manage to dirty flash 3/17?

I boot but UI is unstable. Most apps fc.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] JamFan05:
Gapps are included in the rom now. There is no need to flash a separate gapps package.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] DowntownRDB:
[MENTION=4395895]BeansTown106[/MENTION] Fantastic job on latest ROM update. Running super smooth. Thanks for baking-in the GApps.

Quick off topic: I just noticed that this thread has had over 4 million views and over 34,000 posts. Simply an awesome feat directly attributable to the efforts and dedication of the developer and others who contribute commits and this great community of followers.

Have a great day all.

P.S. Can anybody wrap their head around Quantum entanglement?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] KennyG123:
Vendor image needs to be installed separately via TWRP or Fastboot. The ROM is zip and Vendor is an img that needs to be flashed to vendor partition, not system like ROM flashes to.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] aamadorj:
[MENTION=4395895]BeansTown106[/MENTION] keeps a collection of radios and bootloaders for the Nexus 6P (and possibly other devices) at Android Filehost. See here for the radios and here for the bootloaders.

They can be flashed using fastboot.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] fiverings:
Same thing happened to me. Go to play store , tap categories, then touch microphone in the search bar and say keyboards and choose a keyboard. I chose Swiftkey and every is fine
[Nexus 6P Android Development] NexusNewb:
I think you replied to the wrong person. I would like an answer to my question if anyone knows though lol. No one answered in the substratum thread either. Why does substratum use almost 100 mb of mobile data when applying a theme?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] beanboy07:
Finally someone with the same problem as me, letting you know you're not alone. Sorry I can't help you as I haven't​ figured it out. I just flash fonts as a zip for now. Tried everything under the sun to fix it and nothing works. Started around the January build.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] MrMiami81:
I found a flashable zip of both in the general section. Thanks for the link though sir.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Hinesight 20/20:
Did you ever get an answer?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] kyzn:
That is so weird. Checked my firewall - substratum now uses data. That never happened before. Well, before this rootless method was implemented.

I did not experience the app eating 100mb. But it did consume data, 12mb at most for me. Can't say what for as I applied a theme today and no traffic was recorded.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] kishke:
Thanks for the answer, that much I already know.

There are zips that flash IMG via scripts, so it should be possible to flash the vendor via zip as well no?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] NexusNewb:
I applied Swift black and it used 96 mb. I was trying to stay under my data limit so was kind of bummed, oh well! I just wrote the swift dark developer to find out if he knew what was up.

This thread is valuable. It has everything!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] fiverings:
Something like that happened to me. If you can open play store, that same Tap To Speak will be there. You tap categories and then use microphone in search bar , tap it a day Keyboards, then choose a different keyboard​, I chose Swiftkey.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] KennyG123:
I have not seen anyone create a zip to flash the vendor image...though there may be one out there. Perhaps it is more difficult and some risk involved that it be better to let the user handle it?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] MrMiami81:
Seems like the latest update fixed the Bluetooth disappearing act..
[Nexus 6P Android Development] CacheOnlyPlease:
I just did a clean flash and the google app doesn't crash when I say "Ok Google" now. I just wanted to say thank you for helping me out with your suggestions.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] alghaib:
Thanks​for the advice. I finally figured out where I went wrong. I forgot to wipe data. Now I have to figure out these substratum issues.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] drewski_1:
clear the Google Play data on the watch & then make BT discoverable. i just did this to switch from Stock to PureNexus.

there are ADB commands (no root needed) or an App (root required) in this thread:

Just wanted to say that TiBU is functioning just fine for me after dirty flashing from February build and following the stated instructions. That includes backing up and restoring app+data.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Einwod:
I only have wifi on when I need it and rest assured, Substratum DOES NOT use your data connection. I have themed and changed settings without a connection and all works fine. The only time it may need a data or wifi connection is when you first download the substratum and it has to update.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] JRJ442:
Mine has used about 26mb since the clean flash yesterday. I wouldn't worry though. It could possibly be its anti-piracy checking the themes and the devices Google account to make sure they're valid and not stolen or installed from somewhere besides the Play Store.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Ghisy:
Would you mind telling me if you're using SuperSU or Magisk for root please?

I plan on updating soon and I wonder if someone has the same specific setup as mine: PN, ElementalX kernel, SuperSU. I will also flash emojione emojis and Viper. I also need to restore my current Android ID (for the stupid LINE app). And of course, using Substratum themes. And restoring apps with TiBu.

Thanks guys and sorry if this is a little OT.

[Nexus 6P Android Development] NexusNewb:
Ive had the substratum installed for over a month, so I don't think it's updating. Also, I've recreated the issue so it wasn't a one time thing.

Thanks for explaining that.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] AzraelsKiss:
I'm thinking, that if you want an explanation of the inner workings of Substratum, you may need to contact the devs of Substratum. It doesn't seem anyone here can give you a satisfactory answer to your question.

Have a good one!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] The Pope of Dope:
'unzip vendor.zip && fastboot flash vendor vendor.img'

The reason its a stupid idea is because the author links to a Verizon only vendor image. If you look at the google website they say ONLY flash that image if you're using a Nexus 6P purchased from Verizon. Pretty daft if you ask me because CDMA only lives on in America and is a dead specification of a wireless technology. Verizon admitting to switching everything to GSM by 2020 and only have CDMA for legacy devices. Poor Verizon users....

that was very difficult bash script.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nathanchance:
Lol except for the fact that the vendor image is the same in both images... The only difference between the two images is the radio.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] MoveAlong77:
SuperSU
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Zyphur:
Haven't clean flashed and updated radio/bootloader in ages, so think I'll do that today now that I don't need all of the adb package. I'm on Rogers in Canada. Should I flash radio .78 or .79? .79 matches the n vendor label but it says verizon, so just want to double check.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] RayMcGrath:
03.79 works great. I'm on project Fi.

If it's been a while...

I would ( and this is probably just me) flash the latest stock Google image and be completely updated. This will also completely wipe and clean your device. Of course back up everything to PC first. Then flash PN.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Zyphur:
Maybe. Was planning on just doing radio/bootloader then following regular PN clean install instructions. Don't feel like removing all my internal data :silly:

If I did though, would I use the N image which says verizon only but matches the vendor from here, or the other one?

Edit: SPRING CLEANING IS COMING EARLY.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] RayMcGrath:
Sounds great. Yes. N image ftw.

Hi all ! I did a clean install of PN on my Nexus 6P, rooted it, added Ex Kernel, and i'm currently getting a very low battery life.

I'm at 80% with only 39min SOT ...

Apparently system is draining more than everything else... And battery percents falls two by two... Or just super fast...

Can you help me, please ? :)

PS : My kernel manager is GhostPepper

EDIT : also, my brightness is "only" at 50% (and that's it from the moment when i unpluged my phone.) Normally i'm at 100% :/

So... well... worth battery life than on stock 7.1.1 :(
[Nexus 6P Android Development] igloohed73:
Love having gapps baked in & no aosp apps to to ditch. Made the whole installation much smoother for me. 0 issues after clean install, which is usually the case anyway. Donation sent your way yesterday. Thanks [MENTION=4395895]BeansTown106[/MENTION]
[Nexus 6P Android Development] komidzo:
For everyone having major battery drain after flashing the newest ROM, I did as well. I clean flashed, with Flash Kernel from 3/17. I left the screen on and ex Kernel manager open. Both little and big processesors were churning away at 1248/960 respectively and the CPU load was close to 60% for about an hour. It finally settled down after that and reflashing the kernel. I say plug it in and let it go for a bit.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] RayMcGrath:
I personally had the same experience with ex. Try flash's kernel. Stock. My battery life doubled. Iono.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] shotguntheenforcer:
Just give it a day or so to settle I'm running the same kernel and profile and I got 4 hrs SOT after the update on 36 hrs on battery.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] untouchablez:
I've been in the same boat as you except I use Franco kernel. Battery life used to be pretty good but has been s**t last couple months. Android system usually takes up the most battery along with the screen. I always clean flash too. Not sure what been going on.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Xewyph:
Well i'll try this Flash Kernel.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Incredevo:
I did this today (I didn't actually mount anything though) and it seems to have been my issue. Before I was flashing one thing at a time and rebooting into system, instead of just doing it all in one go and now it's working beautifully! Lesson learned. Thanks to all that helped!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Zyphur:
Completely reset and clean installed, get the same issue i did last night: When doing my settings, and getting to SU, it says I need to update it. I update via twrp, but the following reboot stays on the 4 dots dancing. Using Magisk, systemless option checked. Any ideas?

Hi all, I've dirty flashed from the previous Feb build and everything is working fine except the update of the Contacts so in Play Store... Updating of other apps had no issue at all...

Getting prompted with the error code 505...

Tried clearing data and cache for the contacts app and play store app but still getting the same error...

Any of you guys experience the same issue?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] RayMcGrath:
Are you flashing SuperSU?

If you use magisk it installs su. You don't need to flash SuperSU. you may need to dirty the rom, then flash the magisk zip and then reboot.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] AzraelsKiss:
Probably has something to do with it being built into the ROM update and you dirty flashed. Have you tried a clean flash?

Have a good one!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Zyphur:
I was just thinking that. I'm guessing that since I'm using Magisk I can completely skip over the SuperSU settings category. Might even be why the normal flash option wasn't working. I'll just dirty it with system, it's pretty much still clean from earlier :P
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Roger.T:
Disable the substratum theme then the update should work. Afterwards simply activate the theme again...

[Nexus 6P Android Development] jun_ng_1208:
Thanks for the suggestion mate, just a bit of a hassle for me to clean flash for just one single app error :(

I didn't set any sbstratum theme for the contact app though :confused:
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Roger.T:
OK. If this does not help you have 3 options. Restart the device or clean cache and data or uninstall the app via a root explorer and then install from PlayStore...

One of the options should help [emoji6]

[Nexus 6P Android Development] AzraelsKiss:
C'est la vie... Do as you must... The only other suggestion I would have is clear data for Contacts, Play Store, Play services, Services Framework, Download Manager... Maybe even try removing your Google accounts and log back in from the Play Store. But if none of that works, you may just have to live with it... Good luck!

Have a good one!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Psyfer9983:
I'm having the same problem. Contacts will not update. I have just tried removing it via ES File Explorer. It did uninstall it and the Play Store now says install instead of update but it still gives the same 505 error. I have wiped the cache for all. Not sure what else to do. I'll play with it and reply back if I manage to get it installed.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Phazmos:
Yeah, I knew what was going on. The "something or other after I flash gapps" pretty much gave it away. But its working like it should - and now you know how to do a clean flash the right way, without losing your data. Mounting system is an old habit, shouldn't be needed now days but I do it anyway, old habits are hard to break. Enjoy!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Psyfer9983:
Ok, just tried restoring it via Titanium Backup and it hangs.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] radionerd:
Try clearing it's data and cache: system, apps, Tbu, storage. clear data.

After re-reading your post. Your probably gonna have to clean flash. Google apps that are now system apps have a good chance of conflicting with the old one's.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jhs39:
I'm getting very poor battery life with this Rom. I clean flashed and am using Flash Kernel with Flash's profile. My battery went from 80% to 47% in under an hour of SOT and my battery health is at 94% according to AccuBattery. Is it normal to get such poor battery life on this Rom?
