[Nexus 6P Android Development] THERAJ12:
Has anyone on a 4 core modified 6P been able to use this rom? I can get it running but extremely laggy and playing with kernel options doesn't help. Most likely the modified boot img or kernel however other Roms are fine so just curious if others had have success. Thanks

[Nexus 6P Android Development] sanguinenocturne:
I got the sim card to work by flashing a factory image, flashing the special twrp for the 4 core issue, wiping dalvik, data, cache and system.

Flashed the rom, gapps, and magisk. For some reason if I flash the vendor image last it won't find the sim card. I just flashed factory opr5, went into bootloader, did the recovery image and everything I said above.

It has been randomly turning off though. I do,however, need to replace the battery.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] sean222:
Great rom xanaxdroid!

Anyone having issues with kernels other than the default? Anything I flash gets stuck at the Google logo. EX kernel for example.

[Nexus 6P Android Development] tcat007:
Just tried this ROM and Benzo gapps, Magisk 14. Clean flash, setup was faster than any oreo ROM I've tried. So far can't find anything that doesn't work. Nice set of apps in gapps (wish contacts and phone were latest Google). Only thing I miss that's on others is qs columns setting. Will try for a day or two, great options! Thanks.

Edit: Glitches I've found. QS headers don't stick on reboot (seen to be sticking now after a couple of boots). If dark themed, QS header menu, and power menu, have Black text (on Black bg). Security lockscreen text is too close above clock (should be under clock?). Scratchy notification sounds, haven't installed v4a yet.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] tcat007:
That clock tweaks v5 works for me. Must use center clock with network traffic option.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] zooman31:
Cool brah..I'll try that.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] tcat007:
Flashed v4a, no issues (after 2nd boot). First boot seemed to be stuck on animation, then it finally went back to twrp. Cleared caches and rebooted normally (still took longer than normal). All processing.

help me please

Now I useing this rom https://xdaforums.com/nex...tlies-t3683688 and everything is working, but this rom sim card fo not work ( Does not recognize my device )

I too had the SIM issue however, I had the pin lock on boot so after completing initial setup,I removed any form of lock security and booted into TWRP and factory reset the device after that the device booted with SIM showing

Just sharing my experience, hope it helps
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Sheetzie03:
if you can help it,

Please dont talk about another ROM in someone else's thread, unless of course they don't mind, normally tho it comes off a bit disrespectful saying 'you use this other ROM now and its working fine.

As far as the potential fix, look at the user above me that responded to you. Also, please start using the search feature BEFORE making a post asking your question, because this issue is something that has been talked about over and over and over in MANY 6p ROM threads.

https://xdaforums.com/nexus-6p/development/rom-t3488519/post74236733

takes literally seconds to open a few popular 6p threads, click on search, and type in 'sim card not recognized'

Does the launcher Lawnchair work for anyone? It doesn't even open for me.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] igylan:
For SIM not working what worked for me is that I flash stock system.img then I formatted data then booted up then rebooted to recovery flashed ROM and then wala...signal is full. I know that its a lot of work but that's how I soved the issue.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] :
Can I flash SU instead Magisk?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] bdwilk:
Yessir. Report back. Let others know how it went. Should be fine.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] xflowy:
definitive a rom issue: couldnt revive phone display at morning, though the phone was surely on (notification led blinking). as i had this already once with the benzo rom and hard rebooting helped there, i did that and from then ended up in a boot loop or infinite boot. already flashed the rom again, wiped system etc. any way to get back into my old setup as i was expecting several important messages via whatsapp which should have been delivered that night.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Badger50:
Restore your backup?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] bdwilk:
Can't get back into the old setup but WhatsApp by default makes a 2am backup every night. Maybe you could recover lost data from there. If the messages came before 2am.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] AMKhatri:
Just flashed this rom.

Thank you for taking the time and sharing with us.

Looks snappy overall, though I've noticed that games have a certain lag.

I've tried 3 games (Star Knight, Dragon Hills 2, and Into the Dead 2) so far and all have intermittent lags.

Anyone else having this issue?

EDIT:

- Just faced a random shutdown. Phone wouldn't power on. Plugged in the charger, after 5 minutes it was on. Battery temperature was down to 28c. could that be a cause?

- Do not disturb switch doesn't show any text. I've enabled it from settings. (No themes applied)

OP, how can I assist so you can look in to these?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] stillrapids:
Great rom, but I think it's missing long press power button for torch. It would be in the buttons section, right?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Neejay:

[Nexus 6P Android Development] cnstarz:
Thanks for the ROM, but I wanted to report that after a clean flash that tethering does not work via USB or hotspot. The phone will look like it's tethering and other devices can connect, but it's not actually sharing its internet connection. I've reflashed multiple times and have flashed other ROMs and it's definitely a problem that's isolated to just Benzo (at least for me).

[Nexus 6P Android Development] AMKhatri:
Hi,

Faced the same issue. Had to flash the SuperUbeR-O-R2.15-angler Kernel to fix the tethering and sound issues. Don't know how it'll affect performance/ battery life of the device though. The kernel that came with this ROM kept my phone very cool.

Here's a link to the kernel.

https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=817906626617937101

The only major issue I'm still having is the SIM Card not being detected upon reboot. I've flashed the vendor image as well, and my phone is neither encrypted nor did it have any fingerprint/ lock before flashing.

EDIT: USB Tethering works though it causes the PC to hang; the Network parts (tried different PCs as well; Windows 10).
[Nexus 6P Android Development] bdwilk:
You're a little behind. There's newer builds. Try v2.18 and see how she works.

https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=673791459329055195
[Nexus 6P Android Development] AMKhatri:
Cool. Thanks. I'll definitely do that.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] benpage:
I have this almost everyday. I some point in the day the phone wont wake, so I have to hold the power button to reboot. This was a clean flash. Between that and the incredible lag, I don't think this ROM is for me.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] galaxy s4 nutjob:
Same for me ever morning the led is blinking bit screen won't respond have to hold power button to reboot. Can't figure out what's causing it
[Nexus 6P Android Development] groovemetal81:
This picture right here speaks a thousand words I have always stuck to 1 Ron lately because I became a snob for scrolling quick settings. And Benzo has it. Also it works good with viper and I'm trying different kernels with total clean flashes. I get best results with no magisk! Latest superSU root and superUber-O-R2 kernel and I have awesome speed battery and snappiness. I gave up on Android pay I rarely use it so ditching magisk made this ROM a winner packed full goodies that work great. Thanks OP!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] evolver10:
Mind sharing what method you used to remove magisk?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] bdwilk:
There's a magisk uninstaller zip in the same thread you get the magisk zip.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] bdwilk:
Or better yet. In the manager app itself is a big uninstall button.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] groovemetal81:
I actually went the long way around because I was bored and the wife had a lot of work for me to do around the house and I wasn't quite into it yesterday LOL basically I did a full wipe: dalvik, system,data, cache. Then I went into fastboot and didn't do a format userdata because you lose all your internal goodies so I have always kept an ODP5 image folder handy on my laptop with all the platform tools and system, vendor, boot, and latest TWRP. Long story short after I did the full wipe in TWRP I went to fastboot and flashed the newest angler vendor system and boot. Then I reboot to TWRP and flashed the benzo rom plus benzo gapps. After this flash the newest superSU it just came out.

I am running the stock kernel today but magisk doesn't show up and other than the boot animation being slow at first it runs great[!!!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] bdwilk:
Well magisk isn't included in the rom so if you're clean flashing (couldn't even follow what all you flashed and flashed over) then you won't have magisk unless you flash it.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] groovemetal81:
Sorry that was a jumbled mess I was in the middle of work. I was just saying anytime I flash different ROMs especially using ARISE as much as I do and testing different modules so often I find that if I do a system wipe through TWRP and a Factory wipe through TWRP that it is still better to go the extra mile and Flash the factory system image and boot image first. I don't even boot it I go right back to recovery and then install my desired new ROM. I know it seems like a hassle but I think it saves me a lot of issues!!

Sorry if I was confusing and long-winded LOL

BTW superSU 2.82 SR5 working flawlessly
[Nexus 6P Android Development] micke92i:
I try this rom and there is a lot of little strange thing that happen.

First with twrp 3.1.1-13 f2fs I put my data and cash to f2fs then wipe all partition and i clean flash the rom, gapps, magisk and vendor.

At first boot It ask for my sim pin code but at the second and more reboot no pin code ask so no carrier services.

So i reflash the vendor and it finally ask for the pin code.

I had issue with LP the one we are not able to talk about, notifiying me that there was no busybox installed so i took one from the magisk module.

Then LP told me that there was aproblem with ART and won't be able to create .oat sorry i cant tell you more precise it was toast notification wich i read quickly.

So i try the ART optimisation module in magisk and it fix the probleme

I also had issue with magisk 13.3 after installing a module i have to reflash magisk otherwise it deaspear when flashing a new module and then force close at launch.

ex kernel manager show strange default config in the kernel:

the right speaker got +20db amplification (thats very huge +3db make the soud louder x2 and +6db x4....)

the left speaker got +5db

and very huge amplification in the headset configuration also.

vibration is set to 100% (default is around 35%) and make the phone vibrate like a nokia 3310

The cpu load is always between 15% and 25% in idle.

Evrything i tryed from your benzo extra is working good except the network trafic on the status bar that is stuck at 0 all the time.

I will stop the strugle and go back on 7.1.2 all the Oreo custom rom i tryed so far i encounter trouble very fast.

Maybe I'am the only one experiencing this or maybe it's because of f2fs or something else i do wrong, I hope I don't discourage anyone to try this rom.

I have a question where those benzo extra come from as they ares almost the same as you can find in pure nexus or in some other custom rom?

I try to search on google but my english is not so good to find so specifc things i always end up on the xda thread of customs rom that got those extra features but not where they came from and how to install only this.

I dont know if it's a bug but the gear icon in the quick settings panel is not aligned with the other icons. :confused: thank you! :) I also wish Google Contacts and Dialer as the default apps instead of its AOSP counterparts. :)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Sheetzie03:
Maybe try installing another version of chrome like beta or canary, just to see if it let's you.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] BakedTator:
Got 1 question about the newest build but first...this time is running great...everything is smooth and working to my liking! There is one thing I must know. When using exkm, I notice that the CPU load is around 2-5% idle which is normal but for some reason the 4 big cores like to hang out at 1248mhz at all times and any load added to the CPU uses the big core before the small ones...don't know if it's a kernel bug or just the way you want it but I figured I'd inform you either way

But other than that, this is running super great!!!! Thank you for the hard work man

I flashed latest build yesterday. All good, except I have this message showing up when I launch Google Phone app (both 13.0.171616398 and 14.0.175904292 versions).

Patches

I've been on stock since I got my N6P and now want to install benzo rom.

There are only few things holding me back and I could not find any answers.

How are the monthly android and devices patches handled?

Right now I'm downloading them from the google/ android site and flash them with fastboot.

Can I keep this or does xanaxdroid delivers them with rom updates?

Sorry if this is a noob question. Just want to ask before spamming the thread with bootloops, missing functions, etc. :D
[Nexus 6P Android Development] bdwilk:
Google issues monthly updates and inside the image is a vendor image. We have to flash the corresponding vendor with the ROMs that are built off each specific official image. The vendor does not get wiped in a full wipe situation therefore only needs to be flashed when updating or downgrading from one monthly patch to another. So really it's both ROM and Google who provide the updates. Most OP's have a link to current vendor image or you can just extract it yourself from the official monthly update.

If however you forget to flash a vendor, permitting the ROM still boots (most of the time it will, but sometimes not) you'll have a vendor mismatch popup at boot that tells you what vendor you should be on.

Hope that was clear enough and answered what you were asking.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] pdppdp:
Thank you for your answer.

If I get you right, the patches are within the rom and all I have to check each time I update that I am on the corresponding vendor.img.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] bdwilk:
Correct. I'm not entirely sure what is in a vendor.img but you sound like you get the idea.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] pdppdp:
It keeps the binaries and drivers in an separate partition.
