[Nexus 6P Android Development] helioXverse:
I'm using the 6 December Flash kernel, flashed directly after flashing the ROM during the same TWRP session. I came from a stock but rooted ROM and honestly dirty flashed it just to give it a shot. I did set magisk hide to hide root from both Android pay and directv. It may not be infinite battery life but if I can charge my phone at night while watching TV/playing video games, unplug it and go to bed and have 50+% when I get home from work that night, that's all I could ever want.

I'm no longer a really heavy user, some Facebook, YouTube, and Google searches while at work along with 5-10 phone calls and approximately 40-60 messages (between text and Google allo) is all I use along w maybe 20 min of phone games throughout the day.

Here my current battery usage.

*Edit I forgot, I forgot to charge my phone last night and charged it today. I'm getting less than 1%/hr while idle at night, usually around .86%\hr.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] GabeEddyT:
I'm currently stuck on this step right now
[Nexus 6P Android Development] helioXverse:
Didn't last too long for me, how long have you been on that step and what did have before flashing this ROM?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] GabeEddyT:
Minutes; This rom. Although quite some time has past prior to me trying to finally update now. And would you look at that�my suspicion was right�my phone was freezing up because I had it plugged in to charge while installing. It installed fine just now after I rebooted and left it unplugged.

Edit: Although, now System UI restarts every time I press the home button.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] helioXverse:
I almost always install new roms unplugged (unless it's flashing a factory image) so I can't give any insight to this issue. I'm glad you got it working, at least for me, this has been a 100% amazing ROM.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] tikonux:
Mind if I ask how'd you manage to set magisk hide to hide root from Android Pay? Whenever I check it, it doesn't, the checkmark doesn't stay put.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] helioXverse:
I flashed Flash kernel right after flashing the ROM. When I checked Android pay in the magisk hide setting, it just stuck. And I can verify both adding a card (I had none before this) and paying for a purchase both worked.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Won't be druv:
Go to system UI tuner, navigation bar, reset. Should sort it!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Pain-N-Panic:
Where is systemui tuner? Is it a built in function or a separate app?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Won't be druv:
System UI tuner is activated by pressing the little cog on the top right when you pull the settings panel down from the top of the screen. Then you'll have the option in settings just above About Phone. You need to hold the cog down for several seconds. It will spin and you'll see a little spanner appear beside it.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Pain-N-Panic:
Thanks bro!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Pain-N-Panic:
Love that the systemui on this ROM is deodexed. I took a few minutes and made a little XDA icon for the center navbar button. Figured I'd share it Incase anyone else wants it. Or if you want a different icon, post it and I'll throw it in. Check it out in the screenshot. If anyone wants it, I'll post my systemui.apk.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] pedrofidalgo:
What kernel do you guys use? Im using the stock kernel on this rom...
[Nexus 6P Android Development] disneysteve:
I'm using gerard on mine.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] pedrofidalgo:
Can you tell me the difference between them on overall? The aroma installer had another choosed by default, but i changed to the Stock one
[Nexus 6P Android Development] disneysteve:
It's my first flash of this ROM so I haven't tinkered with the different kernels yet. So far so good with this one though.

---------- Post added at 04:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:21 PM ----------

I believe Elite is selected by default. I noticed in the Elite thread that development for it has stopped. That is why I opted for a different one.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] GabeEddyT:
It looks like I have to do that every time I restart my phone though :/
[Nexus 6P Android Development] foeshigity:
I get symlink errors Everytime I try to install.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] cubarican84:
Anytime I try to load a theme or overlay with substratum my phone bootloops. Any suggestions?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Citizen_Snips:
Stop theming Android system and system UI on 7.1.1 to avoid boot loops. More info on substratum g+ page.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Won't be druv:
Hmm. I don't know the answer to that. Apart from the usual possible solutions, clear dalvik and cache and if that fails dirty flash the ROM.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] drolgnir:
You could go to N6P Android development thread and check the threads individually. I believe most have their own support thread. Your going to have a hard time finding an answer, everyone has different preferences and uses their phone in different ways. I would say you will find a lot using ElementalX or Franco.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] josepmanel:
Hi there! I flashed this ROM yesterday and I'm in love with it; it's like having a Pixel! However, I can't get Android Pay to work for the life of me. I unrooted the phone, so I can use my bank's app (Lloyd's in the UK) with no problem; however, Android Pay says it doesn't work because my phone is rooted (which is not)/has an unlocked bootloader (which it has)/has a custom ROM (which it obviously has). I've looked online a lot but I can't find an solution. Any thoughts? Thanks and happy new year!!!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] dnsh89:
NAV bar height

If there's way to change the height of of NAV bar, this ROM will be awesome and perfect. Can someone make mod for 24dpi NAV bar with dynamic ?:confused:
[Nexus 6P Android Development] ipmanwck:
Thanks for the info. I have been holding off rooting because of not being able to use pingit (uk) but sounds like it maybe fine. Which method or guide did you use please.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] josepmanel:
Hi there, I unlocked the bootloader using adb and fastboot, I installed the room and finally I sideloaded the SuperSU zip. To unroot it, I just sideloaded the unsupersu zip (or something like that). Now my phone is unrooted (so I can use the Lloyd's app) but I still can't use Android Pay :(
[Nexus 6P Android Development] funebral:
i love this rom the only thing happened to me is fast battery drain i got only 2 hours and 40 minutes. is there a way to solve this?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] thesticks00:
was about to flash. Anyone else experiencing this? Would like to know if I will have battery drain and if so, i'll hold off for a fix. thanks.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] reddv1:
Reinstall stock modified kernel to reset the ramdisk then install a kernel that disables bootloader unlock check, like ElementalX.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] ipmanwck:
Thanks Bro. Did you follow a guide. Last phone I rooted was a galaxy s2 ?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] trim81:
You need to run magisk app to u hide android pay
[Nexus 6P Android Development] josepmanel:
Hey there! Yeah, I only do this sort of thing like two or three times a year so I did follow a guide from XDA. It's quite easy to find though I don't have a link. Tbh, I wouldn't recommend flashing it because there are always issues... For instance, in this case, android pay didn't work and the microphone's reception was pretty bad so... I'm back to stock now!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] krolla03:
I keep getting a notification that the SuperUser Binary is out of date. How do i update it? I didnt see a place in the SuperUser app nor Magnik (h/e you spell it)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Krunk_Kracker:
Same here
[Nexus 6P Android Development] djlilyazi:
I flashed "flash" kernel. I have amazing battery. I been using this rom since day one. It takes 3 days for your battery to calibrate also.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] funebral:
please do you have a link for "flash" kernel?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] travperk:
Just install the ROM brother. There you can choose the kernel of your liking. ?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] disneysteve:
No battery issues here.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] helioXverse:
I use "flash" kernel as well. You can find it in the same Android development subsection as this ROM. It also allows Android pay to work as long as you use magisk hide to block detection.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Pain-N-Panic:
So I've been messing around with the navbar a little bit more. Made this one with a larger custom home icon for this rom. Figured I'd share. Just replace the stock SystemUI with the attached APK. Remember to change permissions and remove the "(pirate)" so it just says "SystemUI.apk." If your SystemUI force closes upon boot (which it shouldn't) pull down the notification menu and go into settings, systemui tuner, navbar, and hit "reset" and it'll work just fine. Only happened to be once but not with this particular APK.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Pain-N-Panic:
Not sure why the screenshots didn't load in the previous post.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] lesterinidad:
I installed this rom and flashed the "flash" kernel, when my batt percent hit 9% and use GPS my device went off. Anybody has an idea why it did happen?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] disneysteve:
It seems to be random problem impacting Nexus 6P users.

https://www.xda-developers.com/some-nexus-6ps-are-shutting-down-at-early-battery-percentages/
[Nexus 6P Android Development] lesterinidad:
No that's not my problem, before i installed this rom and kernel, I dont have that kind of problem. When I use GPS and waze, that's when my device turn off or when my device hit 9%?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] disneysteve:
So it turns off @ 9% or anytime you use waze/gps no matter what your battery percentage is?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] lesterinidad:
It's the first time that my device shutdown at 9%, also my first time using waze/gps when using custom rom/kernel
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Rafsxd:
Guys, Does anyone getting too long to charge up te phone? Mine is taking almost 2 hours to charge. When I was using stock MM, it tooks 1 and half hour to charge, at maximum.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] mtyler7807:
I had that problem. My battery would die fast and charge slow. Phone would stay hot. It was because of background apps running and the phone log file always running. I found the fix in this thread. You have to rename a file to .bak, I don't remember which one. Do a search for "bak" in this thread tell you find the fix. After the fix I get a day out of the battery and fast charging works perfect. I use the aukey 6 port charger, and works perfectly.

sent from Pixel XL
[Nexus 6P Android Development] zborn:
Guys. Just as a reference. I know if might be different depending on your opinion. I came from an M8 and I'm also new to the Nexus world. I want to know which option is better referring to battery life.

1) MP + Stock Kernel.

2) MP + Flash Kernel

3) MP + ElementalX kernel

And which, in your opinion, is the best kernel settings for this ROM? *talking about battery life.

One last question, does any kernel for 6P support UV?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Rafsxd:
Would be this one: /system/bin/logd?

My phone does not heating. The only thing that driving me crazy in this ROM is the time that it takes to charge up. I have a good battery file using Franco Kernel. 4 hours/4 1/2 hours of screen time.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] note3userr:
Honestly no significant difference to those kernels. Elemental I believe has more custom profiles to choose from but I've run both stock versions of those kernels and I didn't notice any difference
[Nexus 6P Android Development] dnsh89:
Hey, can you help me in reducing the nav bar height to 24dpi?:o
[Nexus 6P Android Development] puertorecon:
I think stock is best. But,...That is my opinion.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] firoz3321:
I have been using EX kernel for a long time now. I personally use it fir audio mods as my M20x volume is low on stock kernel. Also the EX had been smooth and stable. In combination with GREENIFY app the battery is very good.

Query:

I tried a theme and tge mobile wouldn't start at all. Had to dirty flash again. Is there a flash able zip to only disable the themes or safe mode boot?

I couldn't find the safe mode boot option when mobile is already turned off.

[Nexus 6P Android Development] Rafsxd:
MP + Franco Kernel are doing great! If I continue using this ROM i will not change it.

OMG, just use the thread search or google it.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] zakenaio:
My battery is horrible. 2h 25min screen time.

And 17% battery left.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Saknice20:
Just wanted to say I am getting INSANE battery life with this rom. I used the stock kernel and no magisk. I get about 3.5 - 5 hours screen on time which is unheard of for me. Previously I was getting 2.5 -3 and my phone would be in the single digits for percentages. Also the phone runs very smooth for me. If you are having battery drain try these few things. Turn location to battery saving then click the 3 dots to open up another menu and turn off wifi and bt location scanning, makes a huge difference. Thanks Dev!

Install wakelock app and see what's causing your phone to wake.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] zrilman:
Are the fingerprint gestures working?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Rafsxd:
It takes a few cycles to set the battery life. But you should try a custom kernel, like Franco, Flash or ElementalX. Battery life on this rom is on average.

XDA have an app better then native fingerprint gestures. Give it a try.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] guitar1238751:
Massive props to you [MENTION=3400685]digitalhigh[/MENTION]. This is hands down the most comprehensive Pixel ROM for the 6P. I absolutely love that live earth wallpapers work and that Google Assistant opens just like on the Pixel, previously with the build.Prop mods, Assistant opened with that ugly screenshot animation from Now On Tap. (Yes its the little things I really appreciate lol) Overall everything is so buttery smooth. Great work as always. Have a great day! ?

PS: Aroma Gapps installer built right in is awesome, haven't seen that in a while.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] rockingondrums:
After years of flashing various devices, I've left my 6P stock since it's come out. Mainly, because of Android Pay. Also, just cause. I've also kept up on the cat and mouse game between Google and XDA devs over SafetyNet. But since the Pixel XL is super pricey as well as out of stock, and will be for the foreseeable future, I'm itching to flash.

It looks like this ROM includes everything I need. Or pretty close to it. I've kind of avoided rooting due to the need to flash so many different things depending on the current situation. So let me review:

I'm on fully stock 7.1.1.

adb pull /data/media or somehow just back up my photos and videos.

Then enable OEM unlocking and fastboot unlocking? (some new command now, which I can google).

Fastboot twrp.

Factory reset from within twrp (is this necessary since unlocking wiped device?)

Install zip

Follow Aroma instructions.

Install some magisk apk from play store and set up my root to hide itself?

Good?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] drolgnir:
Bootloader unlock will wipe your device, just plug it before hand into a computer and copy contents from the internal storage.

If you can get your device unlocked and with TWRP on it, flashing this ROM provides options for wiping and installing magisk.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Rafsxd:
So, I do or do not have fastcharge? If I don't, what I have to do to use it? I'm so sorry. I kinda dumb at physics.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] rockingondrums:
What's the latest version of working TWRP? Twrp's been fubared with encryption and pin/password settings for awhile. Found the perfect post for future searchers
[Nexus 6P Android Development] drolgnir:
I'm using 302-1 with no problems, but 303 is the newest.

---------- Post added at 03:46 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:28 AM ----------

Are you using the stock Nexus 6P USB charger?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Rafsxd:
For this SS I used the a replace charger that google sells at their store. But I have the stock charger as well.

Like this one, but I bought at Google's Store

http://www.ebay.com/itm/GOOGLE-UNIVERSAL-15W-USB-TYPE-C-CHARGERS-GL0102-1001/222256478438

I also have this one too:

https://store.google.com/product/usb_c_dual_port_charger?gl=US

Wich I have to use?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] drolgnir:
I would be careful using after market chargers and USB C cords, there are many bad choices out there. But your dual port charger from the Google store looks like the perfect 15W option. It needs to 5V 3A(15W) I believe.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Rafsxd:
But, I bought both on Google Store. The dual charger does have the "G" of Google. The single don't, but, I bouth from it. I think is trustble, isn't?

You forget to answer about the fast charge. :)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] drolgnir:
Yeah if Ampere is showing min 1300 to max 2500, your fast charging. Probably take 1h30min to 100% but you should be to 75% very quickly. Both are fine to use.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] rockingondrums:
Hm, updated Magisk app, and the from within the app to 10.2, went in to Magisk Hide and checked Android Pay. But I still can't add a card. Also, status inside Magisk app showing SafetyNet error. Ah, I need a kernel with verified boot flag patch
[Nexus 6P Android Development] temka:
Chaps, have you tried sharing the 60fps video to WhatsApp?

I have a strange bug:

1. take two very similar videos (for simplicity - 5 secs each). one with 30fps, one with 60fps

2. try to share them to WhatsApp (one by one)

3. at the "WhatsApp video trim" step you can actually see each video, trim it and select a GIF option - all as usual

4a. the 30fps one goes through (however, the "uploading circle" gets stuck halfway, then it gets send)

4b. the 60fps one throws an error "Can't send this video. Choose a different video and try again". Interestingly, this error is thrown after the video got uploaded halfway (again, the "uploading circle" is half-green, then it gets stuck, then throws an error)

Has anyone gotten Viper4Android working on this rom? I have Magisk installed, and updated to latest. Every way I have used to install Viper fails. I get to the point where I install the driver. It says that busybox is not installed, but it is. I suspect that the new Magisk systemless has anything to do with this. I have also tried installing the Viper from Magisk, but no go.

Anyone?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] lesterinidad:
Sir how did you disabled networklocationservice?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] zborn:
Download "Disable Service" from Play store.

Open the app and swipe left for "system apps"

Locate the one that says "Google play services" and clock on it.

Locate the one that says "Networklocationservice" and click on it. It will ask you for root rights and it will change it to red.

IT'S DISABLED...

[Nexus 6P Android Development] soylukral:
Hey guys,

I just installed the ROM, and i do really like it this far. I only have one question. The volume overall sounds really loud, is there an option to bring it down? I have set the volume around 50% now so it doesnt damage the speakers. Thanks in advance!

Edit: lowered the gain via ex manager. It was 30 with flash kernel, i did set it back to 20.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] disneysteve:
I have it working. I didn't select Magisk option durning installation. Instead I flashed SuperSU and then installed BusyBox separately. Then I flashed Viper. I found a version of Viper that works weather permissive is enabled or not. Here is the version I used..

Hi, I'm using Leviticus 1.3. I also have it working system wide by using a magisk module which was posted in another thread. However, I couldn't install the module with the magisk that came with the rom, so I installed magisk manually by flashing zip and magisk manager apk after flashing ROM. Here's what I did:

1. Installed stericson busybox.

2. Using root explorer, I added .bak to audio policy conf in system/etc. Reboot.

3. Flashed Leviticus.

4. Once confirmed viper was working i.e. drivers installed with music player, I installed magisk module with magisk manager.

All working.
