Personally, 3+ months ago when I went back to stock. I don't have time to waste flashing back and forth. However I have been keeping an eye on the changelog and reports from other users on this issue. In the previous page alone there are two reports of BT audio still stuttering with recent builds.

Hello im a new Nexus user, is there a main xda thread to keep track of the monthly updates or do we have to check google each month

I was on cm a couple weeks ago and the problem is still there. Slimrom is caf based and suffers the same issue. I'd hope that the slim team will look into this and fix it

Does anyone else suffer from data connection problems?? If I have data and wifi turned on and I move away from my home wifi, the data doesn't come on, turning data off then back on doesn't help, airplane mode on/off doesn't work, the only thing that works is turning wifi off then restarting the phone then changing my apn to a different one then changing it back to the normal apn
[Nexus 6P General] redbullman:
Happens all the time. Switch WiFi off, data doesn't connect. I have to toggle air plan mode on/off
[Nexus 6P General] razorloves:
Yeah, it's an awful bug that's affecting several different devices with cm and other cm based roms. It started on 3 july nightly.

Was mentioned in here when it started. http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=67593077&postcount=799

A cm dev and i worked on it earlier and figured out the cause and a temporary fix. https://github.com/razorloves/andro...mmit/2b0159c93b4106d50f8736f52cf77aa764576cd2

This ril stuff makes my head spin. Hopefully a proper fix will come soon to make it into the nightlies.

Toggling airplane mode should work for you. Try leaving airplane mode on a little longer.

I came from the OnePlus One where Steve Kondik was the maintainer...seems like there were OnePlus One specific changes every week...and if there was a bug, Steve Kondik squashed it quick

seems like the Nexus 6 and Nexus 6P are blind builds...
[Nexus 6P General] snakecharmer23:
Fingers crossed for this one....

[Nexus 6P General] razorloves:
Yep, fixes the stuttering that happens for like 5 seconds when the screen is turned on.

I've never had the stuttering any other time, unlike what others have mentioned in here.

So, if anyone wants to test it, here's my test build. https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24572369242689004

The only change from a nightly is the data fix (mentioned couple posts above), and the bluetooth fix.
[Nexus 6P General] antmunny:
anyone get a bootloop (well, bootani-->"STARTING APPS" loop) dirty flashing one nightly over another?

i end up having to do a clean flash with every other nightly...wondering if it's just me.
[Nexus 6P General] ce_rob:
hm, not here. in fact, i just came from a very early nightly - likely march/april.

flashed the latest nightly (a few posts above) with the data/BT fix, flashed the new vendor image, and it booted up fine. i've rebooted maybe once or twice since having flashed it and haven't gotten the 'starting apps' at all.

either way, BT is most definitely working well. i use both BT headphones and stream music to my car and neither stutter when turning the screen on with music playing. WONDERFUL!
[Nexus 6P General] hi2u2:
https://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/153188

It's done! Long awaited Bluetooth stuttering fix merged. Will be included in today's nightly.
[Nexus 6P General] Smallsmx3:
But has anyone tested it? Someone posted a test build a page back with that fix in it
[Nexus 6P General] hi2u2:
2 reports in the last few posts saying that it works.

Razorloves, has your data fix been submitted for CM code review yet?
[Nexus 6P General] razorloves:
No, a partial revert, in this instance, is not considered a proper fix. But i've discussed it with a cm ril expert. And it's gaining some traction on jira, so hopefully something will come along soon.

EDIT: Forgot to mention another workaround i discovered for the data issue. Change preferred network type from lte to 3g. Data reconnects fine after reboots. No issues.
[Nexus 6P General] be_vigilant:
BT still skips in my car. 20th nightly.

Randomly skips when screen is off. Can be reproduced by powering on the screen which sends a crazy amount of skips.

(Dirty flash from 12th July build)
[Nexus 6P General] snakecharmer23:
The BT fix is in the 21st nightly. Try that one.

https://www.cmxlog.com/13/angler/
[Nexus 6P General] be_vigilant:
It was confusing me as if I check the change logs on the phone it says it was included in the 20th and no mention on the 21st. I will flash it and try it on the drive home and post results here.
[Nexus 6P General] Ok_Kaleidoscope5109:
Bold and inaccurate? Bluetooth audio has been bugged on stock too and is still bugged. The same stuttering occurs. I compared with my friend's N6P just this past July 4th weekend as we were both trying to stream audio to our rental car. SO you can't really blame CM when the stock ROM is bugged too.

Xposed and GB are pretty mature yes, and I agree GB isn't technically supposed to work on CM. My point was that CM is reboots aren't an issue. I've never had any soft reboot issue til I used Gravitybox. I confirmed by wiping my phone on 6/29 and installing only minimal apps. I then enabled Xposed add-on 1 by 1. I stopped at GB and used it for a week--no issues. The day I enable GB again, I get issues with phone calls and soft reboots.
[Nexus 6P General] xxBrun0xx:
Are there any benefits to cm13 over aosp with regard to smoothness or battery life? Not trying to give devs a hard time, just trying to justify flashing this to myself. Always had a soft spot for the little blue guy.
[Nexus 6P General] coldconfession13:
You will have to try it for yourself. People will have different opinions.
[Nexus 6P General] MaxNXS:
Completely false. The BT audio issue in question is exclusively on CM and CM derivate roms. Fact: BT audio works flawlessly on stock. On CM it has been totally broken for months and only now (maybe, still waiting for confirmation) has been addressed.

Let's not even mention the other major issue with data connection (well documented in the last few pages). Sorry but these kind of problems this far along MM, with Nougat just around the corner, only highlight the fundamental flaw of CM development on Nexus devices. By the time it reaches a stable state Android 7.x will already be here for Nexus phones. It's just not worth the trouble.

Why pointing the finger to GB as the cause of your reboots when you know very well that it is not supported and should not be used with custom roms?!?
[Nexus 6P General] be_vigilant:
Confirmed BT skipping is fixed in the 21st nightly. 0 random skip and 0 skips when turning on screen.
[Nexus 6P General] AndyYan:
Try using network (either cellular or WiFi) while listening to music, e.g. checking up Facebook, etc. If zero stutter then the issue is definitely resolved. Thank you.

i stream my music through google play music (cellular network) while connected to either BT headphones or my BT car stereo - no skipping. sometimes, i'll browse FB or another social network while doing the same and again, no skipping.

If your using Verizon your voice over data will not work. I don't know about other carriers.

I am indeed using Verizon, and that would suck. Thanks for the heads up! Are they working on a fix for that by chance?
[Nexus 6P General] D@rekills4:
I am using the 27 July nightly.

I turned on Hotspot today for 15 minutes and after that I was unable to turn on WiFi.

The button just frooze after trying to turn it on.

I had to reboot the phone to get it working.
[Nexus 6P General] dooley19:
I don't think so. I remember back in the day running a CM Rom on my Verizon Galaxy Nexus and voice over data didn't work either. Voice over data works fine on the AOSP Roms.

[Nexus 6P General] razorloves:
The nexus 6p cm nightlies have been updated to google's new MTC20F update. :good:

http://review.cyanogenmod.org/154714

https://github.com/CyanogenMod/andr...mmit/6eb9303f3cf069515985f0512a7cea6b35480a86

https://github.com/TheMuppets/propr...mmit/1a6a6838ac084a299495a87090248c525d4cc097

So, starting with Aug. 4th nightly, you will need the vendor img from the MTC20F factory image.

I extracted it from the factory image and uploaded here.

You can flash it using twrp or fastboot.

The MTC20F factory image also has a new bootloader. The radio is the same as last months.

I extracted them from the factory image and uploaded here:

03.54 bootloader

03.61 radio

You can only flash these using fastboot.
[Nexus 6P General] cursixx:
Thanks. Updated all three and installed the build from 08042016 and it seems to be working
[Nexus 6P General] blitzkriegger:
Hello. If you have the chance, can you kindly check if going to the recents screen then clearing apps via the clear button at the bottom results in a reboot?
[Nexus 6P General] razorloves:
That's a bug that's been affecting numerous devices on the past couple nightlies.

It's now fixed and will be in the Aug 5th nightly.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=68029129&postcount=133
[Nexus 6P General] blitzkriegger:
Awesome. I was regretting not being able to report the bug to JIRA, but glad to see that it has been addressed.

After a long time being on stock I tried cm again and was flashing the nighties from 07/24 until 08/02. Save for the data issue (which I was not able to experience since I was on Wi-Fi the whole time) and the reboots when pressing clear recents button (which I noticed on the 08/02 build I guess) problem, CM has been a smooth, stable and pleasant experience. Even had c-apps, Nathan's AK, ARISE and Xposed installed. Battery life has been awesome as well even with mixed usage.

I just went back to stock yesterday to check out the August updates but won't hesitate to switch back sometime soon.

I appreciate your involvement to the project, as well as the hard work of the devs. Thanks for the great work :)

Wow good call on the upcoming builds. The last few days they have been killing it with fixes and additions. I'd say they are getting it ready for a Snapshot build with 7.0 incoming.
[Nexus 6P General] snakecharmer23:
A year ago I would have dismissed a post like this as trolling but the current me sees it as totally justified. For almost the entire life of Marshmallow, CM has been awful for the Nexus 6P. Bluetooth just got fixed a few days ago and we are literally on the cusp of getting Android 7.0. I guess they will stabilize Nougat in a year or so just before Android O is about to drop. :-/

Flashed the vendor.img successfully.

I accidentally flashed the latest bootloader using twrp. Install image > Boot section.

Now my phone stuck on Bootloader Mode. Always. Even when I reboot or switching on/off. What can I do now besides a clean installation. I don't want to wipe my current setup. :(
[Nexus 6P General] turbo1781:
Start your phone into the Bootloader mode. You must flash the Bootloader and the radio image with fastboot!
[Nexus 6P General] razorloves:
the /boot partition is where the cm kernel is, so that's why it wont boot up anymore. so you just have to reflash the rom in twrp. if twrp doesn't work you can just extract the boot.img from the cm13 nightly zip and fastboot flash it.

fastboot flash boot boot.img
[Nexus 6P General] Mr.Zombie:
Reflashed the cm13.zip . Fixed my booting issue. Thanks!

I just fresh installed windows 10 few days ago.

By using the flash.all batch file, Whenever I want to fastboot. It says, :

" 'fastboot' is not recognized as an internal or external command,

operable program or batch file. "

Manually fastboot using CMD. It says, :

FAILED (remote: metadata: partition name doesn't exist)

Any help? Please.

UPDATE: Everything's fixed. I used the Nexus Root Toolkit to fastboot. :victory:

Weird though. Everything works fine before this. Been using the CMD to fastboot and unlock/root my device but suddenly it doesn't work properly today. :confused:
