Seems even legacy themes don't work either. For the bootloop, go into TWRP and copy the rescue zip from the substratum folder.

Got everything set up, then installed my kernel (ExKernel) and the phone went into a bootloop again. I decided that I've had enough and I'm going back to stock. If my phone ends up being a victim of the BOD while under warranty I want it to be fully on stock. Goodbye everyone.

Hi all! Just flashed this rom and its great. One question.... Is Smart Lock/Trusted Devices disabled on this rom? I can't see it after i flashed this rom?

[Nexus 6P Android Development] tropical cactus:
I installed ex 4.0.5. All good. Took a little longer to boot but I have increased vibration using ex kernel manager and high brightness mode app. Both working normally. Arise Leviticus 1.3 also installed without a hitch. Only bug was black camera which was solved by installing apk.

I'm good with any decisions you make, it's your ROM you are nice enough to share with all of us, but I'm surprised you'd want the 'white' version.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] chevycam94:
Correct. No F2FS support for now.

Also, apparently I uploaded the wrong zip. I had one with only one camera app. Lol. Oh well. I was sleepy by that time.

Both camera apps work for me. No black screen, and what's even better, no more connection issue on first launch! ?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] tropical cactus:
True. Usually after a reboot, camera will FC. Now no more. I only use the ported cam so no problem for me. Much faster focus and capture with HDR+. Thanks for sharing your ROM. :)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Sheetzie03:
F2FS is nothing special anyway at the current moment. To people thinking you are missing out, you aren't.

Chevy thanks for another update. Gonna try soon. Much appreciated bro.

I'm running nougat with the proper images for radio,boot, vendor ECT it seems Everytime I install this ROM I loose signal all the time after a couple minutes it's saids I need a sim card which its inside lmao I try running stock ROM and the problem is fixed any ideas what's going on I love this ROM and I would like to run it in my device. Btw I'm running exlememtal kernel 4.05
[Nexus 6P Android Development] joethinksblue:
i had the same issue with the previous build but reverting back to radio 3.75 fixed it.. im running the new build without a problem (still using radio 3.75)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] chevycam94:
Rule of thumb guys. Do NOT dirty flash a new build base over an old build base. At the minimum, make sure the bases are the SAME. Example, don't flash an N4F26O ROM over an N4F26J ROM. That's how you get a lot of the issues you're having. With a major update, aka base-change, you need to CLEAN flash. Also, if you dirty flash, I cant fix bugs, as I am unable to replicate your installation.

Remember, before each release, I test and run the ROM on my own phone before packaging it up and uploading it. If it doesn't work for me, it doesn't get uploaded. So if its not working for you, there's a 99% chance you didn't install it properly.

With internal storage transfer rates being as high as they are now, a clean setup doesnt take nearly as long as it used to. Please just take the time to wipe system/data/cache/dalvik, and install the ROM cleanly. It will make for a MUCH better experience. Worst that can happen is you lose out on 20 minutes or less of your day for setup.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] joethinksblue:
camera NX is not working for me after a clean install.. app doesnt FC but all i get is a black screen. i reboot it a couple of times and wiped cache and data from app and still didnt work.. I ended up unistalling it then reinstalled it and works fine now.

[Nexus 6P Android Development] jhs39:
That's kind of what I'm afraid of. I think my phone might be headed towards the BOD. I don't want to take a chance and be on a custom ROM if it happens because I would need to RMA through Huawei and they have used that as an excuse to deny RMA. My phone has randomly rebooted several times in the past couple weeks and it seems to be running warmer than in the past. I loved Cortex but I'm still under warranty until July and I want to be able to use it. After Cortex though stock kinda sucks. ?

---------- Post added at 11:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:20 PM ----------

I did do a clean install the second time I installed Cortex and it seemed to be working fine (except for the camera and Substratum) until I installed the ElementalX kernel. Then my phone boot looped again.

A couple people had that problem last month. I believe they flashed gapps to fix it but you might want to search through the thread.

A specific gapps? I clean flashed and flashed dynamicgapps
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jhs39:
And you still have the Google issue? Did you flash dynamic gapps before you had the problem? Normally you don't flash gapps with Cortex because they are included with the rom.

I think there's something wrong with The Flash's unofficial TWRP. When I clean flashed the rom with official TWRP I was able to flash ElementalEx Kernel without a bootloop. I was also able to get Substratum to work.

Thank you for this rom, it runs great on my phone.

Quick question: While Im charging it, there is no led on. Is it normal? Is there a way to turn it on?

There is no native charging led. However, you can use a 3rd party app to achieve that function. Light manager from the play store works well for me.

Out of curiosity, you guys with the battery drain. What are your CPU cores running at? I use EXKM app to control the kernel. When I booted up with the stock, or custom kernel, I noticed that the big cores were offline, and the little cores were running full blast at 1555. Just curious if anyone else has seen this.

Brilliant! How do I manually flash the bootloader (3.64) and radio (3.79)? I do not want to do a fresh install.. Just an update if that's possible. If that was the prerequisites for v4.00 then all good.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Badger50:
You can flash them with fastboot, or, there are TWRP flashable zips floating around out there. However, the bootloader and radio are the same on the latest February security patch, so you may not need to do that if your already on those.

I'm on the last patch that's the thing. I've also noticed my camera is now not working. Just comes up with a black screen. Gonna restore my backup and attempt to update again another time. Thanks for your help. Much appreciated!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jhs39:
I had the battery drain issue until I was finally able to flash ElementalX Kernel. Unfortunately mine is acting wonky as well. I can't get some of my settings to stick after a boot and have to manually set them after every boot. Rom wants kernel to be on demand for some reason, which isnt a battery friendly governor.

Not sure what to make of this but my battery health on AccuBattery before installing the latest build was 98%. In the last two days it has gone down to 92%. My phone also seems to be running warmer than normal. My backup didn't work, unfortunately, but I'm thinking of doing a clean install of last months build, which would also mean rolling back my recovery since Cortex 4.00 doesn't install properly on stock TWRP. In the future I think I'll wait until people post their issues before updating to the latest build.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jhs39:
It's doing the same thing on ElementalX Kernel, which isn't the stock kernel. ElementalX is defaulting with battery draining settings and changing them doesn't stick after a reboot.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Rynosensation:
Many thanks. That fixed my camera problem. Although I'm back on 4.0.0. When i flashed 5.00, the ROM wouldn't see my SIM card. Any idea why that was?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] RayMcGrath:
I'm experiencing a prolonged lag when opening an app. ( All apps) I've cleaned caches and rebooted and that did not help. Anyone else?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jhs39:
Did you clean flash 5.00? Are you on Verizon? I know Google had a Verizon only build this month that wasn't used as the base for Cortex. Or if you dirty flashed that could account for weird behavior. Did you actually get a no sim inserted error message or just no network connection?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Badger50:
Have you checked to see what your CPU cores are doing? My guess is that the big cluster is offline [emoji50]

Sent from me :)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jhs39:
Mine was doing that by default in the latest build as well. All of the kernel settings were screwy. People have been complaining about similar problems on other roms based on the Feb build, so it isn't a problem with this rom.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jhs39:
The Swift Dark app dev recently posted the following regarding the problem with Substratum themes not applying:

• NOTICE FOR NEXUS & PIXEL USERS: After updating to the February firmware version you might experience issues applying the theme. In some cases it takes a very long time installing the overlays or applying the overlays have no effect. This has absolutely nothing to do with the theme itself. It's due to the vendor partition being affected by the firmware update. The common fix is to re-flash the vendor partition in fastboot. Don't forget to pick a slot for the partition if you're using the Pixel.

---------- Post added at 08:35 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:52 AM ----------

That didn't work for me but someone on Telegram suggested downgrading Substratum to version 551. That did work and I was able to apply my Swift Dark theme.

[Nexus 6P Android Development] Badger50:
Do know what your CPU cores are doing. There have been numerous reports that, for whatever reason, the big cores are offline, and the little ones are running full blast at 1555. You can use a kernel app to change the governors to interactive, and manage the frequencies. That's what I did, and then all was good.

[Nexus 6P Android Development] jhs39:
Do your changes survive a reboot of the phone? Mine dont. Have to change settings for big core after every boot because they revert back. Battery drain problem does go away after kernel settings are adjusted, however.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Badger50:
I use the EXKM app, and just activated all the appropriate blue circles to the right and then they stick after reboot. It takes a little time for them to kick in, but it works.

I use EXKM as well. My governor on the Big Cluster gets changed from Interactive to On Demand every time I reboot. I'm familiar with the app and the blue circles next to settings but it doesn't make any difference. I can't get that setting to stick.

I tried going back to stock 6P, then clean install Cortex, and battery drain is fubar, no matter the kernel I am using, 5.0 definitely not ready for primetime, would advise others to stay on 4.0 to avoid the headache.

radio version

Hi all, small question:

this is a installation reccomendation:

"Be sure you have already flashed the bootloader (3.64) and radio (3.79) or you could run into issues." This is reccomended to avoid issues, but the stock radio version of N4F26O is 3.78. Can I keep it or I had to flash 3.79? thanks
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Badger50:
03.78 is fine. The 03.79 radio is mostly for Verizon users who were having trouble with voice mail.

[Nexus 6P Android Development] bigsnack:
Is it just flash kernel or are people having luck with other kernels too with stopping drain?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jhs39:
I have to disagree. Flashing ElementalX Kernel fixed battery drain issues for me. The only problem I'm having is that one of my kernel settings won't survive a reboot. If I don't fix the setting the battery drain issue will likely come back. People are complaining of similar issues with other roms based on the Feb patch and its definitely related to kernel settings. When I flashed 5.0 all of my kernel settings defaulted to the most battery draining possible. Big cores were completely off line. Small cores were running on demand at Max frequency. Touch boost was enabled. I'm getting better battery life with 5.0 than previous build with kernel settings adjusted. My idle drain overnight is usually just 1 or 2 percent. Drain when using phone is about the same as 4.0.

You don't need to uninstall camera Nx. You can install the apk over the current install and it works fine.

ElementalX kernel fixed battery drain problem for me AFTER I adjusted the settings, which were battery draining by default. But I can't get all of my settings to survive a reboot so I need to check the settings and fix after every boot.

Google Assistant Issues

Hey guys, been using and loving this rom. Unfortunately I've had a bevy of Google assistant issues in the last few months. Mostly just around "okay google" functionality. Many times my phone will refuse to detect the hotword, other times it will detect it, make the chime sound like it's listening, but then not actually come up. I didn't have these problems prior to Google assistant, so I'm assuming it's related to it being hacked onto the 6p. I want to keep running this rom, but would like to remove assistant and go back to the stock okay google function. If someone could offer some help on how to do that I'd really appreciate it.
