Finally got it working. The laptop adb system was messed up. Got an extension cord and used my desktop and worked perfectly. Always fun walking across the apartment hooking into TV then the computer back n forth haha
[Nexus Player Android Development] r1nstang:
Different issue. Volume is very very very low. I typically have my TV at 20 volume for movies. But even to hear system sounds I have to crank up to almost 40. In Kodi I can do volume amplification but what can I do within the Android OS to increase the volume
[Nexus Player Android Development] TheNightman:
Not sure if you've figured it out yet, but I was getting 255 errors as well. Make sure you downloaded the correct rom, this one is only for the nexus player(fugu), and the other two threads are for the ADT-1(molly), which is NOT the nexus player. The zip will have 'molly' or 'fugu' in it, just make sure you're flashing the proper file!

EDIT: Same goes for the gapps, the nexus player is NOT arm so trying to flash a gapps package from the other threads won't work, the gapps should have x86 in the filename, not ARM.

EDIT 2: Those of us without an OTG cable can install the ROM using adb twrp commands. ie. 'adb twrp sideload' starts sideload, 'adb twrp wipe cache' wipes cache etc.

My post was from a long time ago, I have become much more familiar with the NP.

But thank you for your reply
[Nexus Player Android Development] montajd:
Anyone ever figure out the issue with having to press volume down then back up to get the volume to a normal level? Or maybe how to just disable the volume entirely?
[Nexus Player Android Development] fontong:
Dont think so, I just volume down then up to fix, not much of a hassle really

I have always enjoyed your work, all the way back to the original Galaxy S. I been using this release for close to a year and it has been serving me well, but now is feeling a bit long in the tooth, being Marshmallow and all. Still prefer it to stock, but any chance of doing a Pure Nexus Nougat release for the Nexus Player? Should be easy for you, given your past releases, and would be greatly appreciated. Google has released it stock for Nexus Player and Pure Nexus is also at 7.1.1 on official builds(running it on my Nexus 6P and it is just perfect).
[Nexus Player Android Development] Selenia:
Try Viper4Android. Seems I had this issue with many custom 6.0+ ROMs. This will fix you right up and give you awesome sound to boot. Word of warning: While it could configure older versions, the Nexus Remote does not work in the new interface in 2.5.0.5. A mouse or Droidmote both work.
[Nexus Player Android Development] siaopao:
I have this installed in my nexus player, but would like to try the stock nougat from Google.

Can anyone post the step by step instruction on how to do it? I found the "manual update" option on the google developer website but just wondering if it's the same steps. Thanks

Hello. I'm trying to use PlayStation Vue on this ROM and can't get it to work. For PS Vue to work, it needs rootcloak. After flashing Xposed and installing rootcloak, for some reason im unable to add psvue into the rootcloak apps. The + and menu button are missing. Rootcloak on my phone shows both buttons.

Has anyone gotten Netflix to work on this Rom? I see people talking about magisk but I don't think that works with the Nexus player.

Awesome rom! I've just downgraded from stock Oreo and it runs like brand new, buttery smooth :D
[Nexus Player Android Development] goose2600:
Yes, first I tried to unistall and reinstall adb drivers, but did not worked.

After installing PdaNet I just plugged the usb cable to another usb port, then adb starts working.

Does not work for you?
[Nexus Player Android Development] BeansTown106:
just popping in to see how all is going, lost track of the thread but will be looking over posts from here on out to help [MENTION=4112553]dhacker29[/MENTION] with any support issues :)
[Nexus Player Android Development] dhacker29:
No just flash the rom and reboot don't wipe anything
[Nexus Player Android Development] Blazerx39:
I hate to ask a most likely stupid question, but do you need a mouse or keyboard attached to do any of the rom setup/install?
[Nexus Player Android Development] BeansTown106:
only if using twrp recovery
[Nexus Player Android Development] pumm3l:
nope didn't work, it picks up the nexus player and installs the driver and I can see it listed in device manager but adb still doesn't list any devices.
[Nexus Player Android Development] gregfrankenstein:
Anyone having issues getting the remote to pair? Decided today to switch from CyanogenMod to PureNexus. The remote definitely works because I was just using it a few minutes ago with CM. Wiped in TWRP, flashed the 20151205 rom and the 20151202 gapps, and I'm stuck at the pairing screen. Doesn't matter how I press those buttons. The remote's LED even flashes, which I'm fairly certain means, "Hey, I'm trying to pair with something." Tried unplugging for two minutes, tried taking the batteries out and back in, nothin'.
[Nexus Player Android Development] pumm3l:
How long did you hold the buttons down for? Also how did you like CM on the nexus player?
[Nexus Player Android Development] gregfrankenstein:
Five seconds. Also ten seconds. And two seconds. All kinds of combinations of seconds. Considering going out and getting more AAA batteries to see whether that's the issue, though it would be a pretty big coincidence if the batteries ran low right when I switched ROMs.

I really liked CM, but Netflix hasn't been working on fugu for the last couple months. I don't know if there was a DRM issue or what, but my hope was that with PureNexus being closer to stock that would fix it while retaining the features I dig. Plus I was getting super impatient for Marshmallow. :D
[Nexus Player Android Development] pumm3l:
Try holding the buttons down longer, one of my nexus players it seemed like it took forever to pair but it finally did.

Is the netflix problem related to CM? I have a rooted MRA58K and netflix works fine here, I didn't try netflix in purenexus though.

---------- Post added at 04:06 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:04 AM ----------

FYI, I just flashed back to factory MRA58N to do a test on my other nexus player and it took 26 secs to pair.
[Nexus Player Android Development] gregfrankenstein:
That's the weird part. I have a Nexus 5 with CM and it works totally fine as well. But the issue doesn't happen on a Nexus Player with stock either.
[Nexus Player Android Development] pumm3l:
so it seems to be related to CM on the nexus player.

not sure if you saw my other post regarding the pairing since it got merged but I just did a factory reset to latest stock rom and it took 26 secs to pair.
[Nexus Player Android Development] KLit75:
So i tried resetting netflix to get it to work but no luck (tried many times). Went back and wiped dalvik cache. Theres at least one other user that had issues (they posted a fix i just mentioned). But is anyone else having issues? Advice on how to fix?

I only factory reset before flashing, no full wipe but netflix seems to be the only glitch.
[Nexus Player Android Development] gregfrankenstein:
Held for a full five minutes and still nothing. So I went into TWRP and sideloaded the 20151203 zip. That ROM paired just fine, so I set everything up, went into TWRP again and dirty flashed 20151205 and now I'm up to date with a working remote. So in a roundabout way that sorted itself out.

Oh man, this glitch really seems to follow me around between ROMs. Yeah, I'm also having a Netflix issue. But hey, I'm on a modded Marshmallow, so I'm still better off than I was this morning. So thanks all around.
[Nexus Player Android Development] lnxpro:
So I am on the 12-3 version. To update to 12-5 do I just update via recovery and that's it or do I need to flash gapps again as well? I already have the 12-02 gapps installed.

Thanks
[Nexus Player Android Development] gregfrankenstein:
Just update via recovery.
[Nexus Player Android Development] dhacker29:
Uploading new build now, Fixed the cLock layout so the images don't push things down out of view, added native exfat driver to kernel, enabled Marshmallow style storage automount for exfat and ntfs volumes. I tested both and my drives seem to mount fine.
[Nexus Player Android Development] davidstjohn1:
Very nice! Can't wait to get home later and install this. The auto mount was much needed. Thank you.
[Nexus Player Android Development] Mr-Glass:
D, just a quick note on the latest build - my Clock/Weather widget is still a little janky - looks like default settings under weather has clock turned on making it a double clock essentially - I turned that off and rebooted, but still showing part of the degrees Fahrenheit on two lines... Love the build!! as well as all of your other work.....

Yeah I just saw that when it switched to partly cloudy. I'll get to it

Hi dhacker29,

Can I please confirm before buying the Player, I can connect a 2TB NTFS USB drive into a powered hub, via OTG and it will be available in Kodi? Aiming for an offline Kodi setup.
[Nexus Player Android Development] ElfinJNoty:
Doesn't the post you quoted answer your question? Is certainly displaying NTFS as an external storage in the image, as well as him stating that it automounts

Don't mean to be an ass....... But ...... :confused:

---------- Post added at 08:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:23 PM ----------

I don't think android mediascanner is going to enjoy indexing 2tb's worth of media though. Will take some time to complete on each boot
[Nexus Player Android Development] PainToad:
Yes, but they are all very low in size, would 2TB cause any issues? Also, would they show up in Kodi fine? Thank you fo rnot being an ass.

[Nexus Player Android Development] goose2600:
I am not shure this will work, but give it a try.

Use a root file manager and go to /data/misc/wifi.

You'll see a file called "wpa_supplicant.conf". Delete it (or rename it in something like wpa_supplicant.conf.bak) and restart your NP and reconnect to your wifi network.
[Nexus Player Android Development] treezy26:
I'll have to try this when I get home and report back. Thanks for the reply. What exactly is this file?
[Nexus Player Android Development] Rektifying:
You are awesome dhacker! I heard that 6.0.1 dropped, so I come to check my Pure Nexus Roms and you already have it covered on the Nexus Player! Nice work. Downloading it now. I am going to do a wipe / clean install being I hadn't set up my Nexus Player yet from the last flash... lol.
[Nexus Player Android Development] goose2600:
In few words, is the configuration file where accepted wifi networks and secuiry policies, including the WPA pre-shared keys, are "stored".

Installed Nova Launcher and Removed LeanbackLauncher from priv-app

Set dpi to 240 (the best choice imho)

reinstalled leanbacklauncher as second launcher

all seems to works nice !

thanks [MENTION=4112553]dhacker29[/MENTION]

ps.

last version of Leanback Launcher 1.1.4.2463017 report this:

http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google...-launcher-1-1-4-2463017-android-apk-download/

[Nexus Player Android Development] QTeknology:
1) You have to install nova launcher first, then you have to delete LeanbackLauncher from system/priv-app

2) Reboot

3) At the end reinstall leanback launcher, downloading it from apkmirror.

4) create a shortcut for leanbacklauncher on nova launcher

Home button will be nova launcher and when u want, you can always use the leanback

[Nexus Player Android Development] agentdr8:
Have you tried rebooting your access point/router?
[Nexus Player Android Development] treezy26:
Yes but I shouldn't have to do that every time I reboot?
[Nexus Player Android Development] agentdr8:
Nope, just trying to narrow down where the problem lies. Have you flashed back to the 6.0 version and it works fine?
[Nexus Player Android Development] treezy26:
Tbh I've been having this issue for awhile now. As long as I don't reboot I'm fine. I'm thinking I'm gonna have to start completely over.
[Nexus Player Android Development] gregfrankenstein:
I'm getting bootloops on 6.0.1. I even tried wiping and flashing both ROM and gapps again, which does lead to exactly one successful boot, but upon restart it loops again.

I guess I'll downgrade to 6.0 for now.
[Nexus Player Android Development] Rektifying:
Weird. I have had zero issues with 6.0.1. I will explain how I wen't about flashing it.

I hadn't set up my Nexus Player yet from the last flash, so I figured I would do a clean install. I am using TWRP Recovery, not Pure Nexus Recovery.

I booted into TWRP Recovery and did a full wipe via advanced, selecting every box except for OTG.

I then re-booted recovery.

Hooking my Nexus Player up to my computer, I copied the Pure Nexus 6.0.1 Zip and Gapps Zip into the TWRP Folder on my Nexus Player.

I re-booted into recovery again, removing the micro usb cable.

Installed the ROM Zip, Wiped Dalvik Cache, Installed the Gapps Zip, Wiped Dalvik Cache.

I then went back into wipe and formatted data. (Removing Encryption)

Reboot / System

That is it. It took a min, but booted up just fine after "optimizing all apps". I am not sure if formatting data in TWRP, removing encryption provides any real benefit, but my Nexus Player does seem a little more snappy than it did on 6.0. I doubt wiping dalvik / cache after installing each zip is necessary, it is just something my OCD self does when I flash stuff. lol. Either way, this is what I did step by step and I have zero issues with my Nexus Player on 6.0.1 Pure Nexus.
[Nexus Player Android Development] gregfrankenstein:
Hm. I didn't do nearly enough wiping then. I thought TWRP's factory reset would be sufficient. I'll give full wipe a shot.
[Nexus Player Android Development] insanedrunk:
Sometimes when there are multiple devices on a Wi-Fi router, say over 15 for example, the last device to connect to Wi-Fi gets disabled by the router because there's too much traffic. Best way to check is go to the gateway and count the connected devices. Remove the least used, some routers show the name of the device, brand, both or mac address only. I have a dlink 20$ wireless router, it happens to me often
[Nexus Player Android Development] gregfrankenstein:
Aw man. Nope. Followed that exact process wiping everything that could possibly be wiped, first boot went fine, set all my apps up, and restarted to a boot loop. I don't know if there's something about my settings it doesn't like, but clearly 6.0.1 and I were not meant to be.
[Nexus Player Android Development] treezy26:
Ahhh...never even thought about that. As much as I've flashed the last few days I can bet that's the culprit. Thanks for the info. I'm gonna check it out and report back.

As for now I have successfully connected after a fresh flash, so far so good. :fingers-crossed:
[Nexus Player Android Development] dhacker29:
Are you restoring app data via titanium or something else?
[Nexus Player Android Development] gregfrankenstein:
Nope. Totally setting up from scratch.
[Nexus Player Android Development] dhacker29:
Even on stock the new version of the launcher that reorders apps has graphical issues when save & exit, so I am not going to include it by default. Google will release it when it's ready. You can always push it if you want it.
[Nexus Player Android Development] QTeknology:
For people that would use nova launcher...

There are no status bar on top and no virtual keys on bottom...

dpi to 240 is almost mandatory

[Nexus Player Android Development] CharFalco:
Thank you so much for your hard work!

What are the odds of getting bluetooth speakers to work with this? My Nexus Player is hooked up to my monitor which has no sound output. You used to be able to use ES File Explorer to identify the speaker, and after that audio routed through it, but this appears to no longer work. I'd also love some way to control the volume the Player puts out remotely.
[Nexus Player Android Development] Phoexyael16:
Issues

Google Mic Search not working.

Home button not working.

Play/pause button no working on YouTube app.

Hope you could fix these by the next update.

Nice job on the ROM.
[Nexus Player Android Development] dhacker29:
No need to wipe or flash anything but the rom for normal updates. Android automatically clears cache on upgrades
