So if I install magisk manager from play store then install phh super su through the app along with magisk will this allow me to have Android pay. Can anybody confirm who did this, thank you.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jinosong:

Also be curious about this so I can use Android pay...

whenever it comes out in Canada :(
[Nexus 6P Android Development] smoblaster:
hey guys, this rom support substratum?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] note3userr:
You have to flash magisk and superuser through TWRP then install the apps. Then go to magisk and in settings allow magisk hide. Then in magisk hide check Android pay and reboot.

Also you will need a kernel that passes safety net for example elementalx
[Nexus 6P Android Development] AndrewM3:
I am using latest Franco kernel r44 would that work?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] vijaygogawale:
Checked and confirmed no GDrive space used for full resolution photos..
[Nexus 6P Android Development] chevycam94:
I can confirm that I have TRUE unlimited photo storage AND HDR+ in Google Camera.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jhs39:
Is HDR+ something you need to turn on? My camera doesn't have that icon at the top but I don't take a lot of pictures with my phone. I might be missing something.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] note3userr:
Only if you don't have root. If you root I don't think Franco would bypass safetynet
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jhs39:
Does anyone else have HDR+ on the current build of this ROM?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] joooooooooosh:
I have both HDR and unlimited original quality photos backup. Just change ro.product.manufacturer to Huawei.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] tropical cactus:
I flashed Gerard's mod and I got HDR back on camera without losing unlimited storage.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] :
ok, so, [MENTION=2545403]chevycam94[/MENTION] : did you change that too (ro.product.manufacturer to Huawei), after a clean install of your v4 ? or didn't change anything ? :confused:

i'm a little bit confused

thanks
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jhs39:
It worked. Thanks.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] marmeak7:
Hi,

Is it possible to get unlimited full resolution Google Photos backup if you are running other custom ROM? I am really interested in getting full resolution backup for my 6P but this ROM did not give good battery backup for me so I switched to another ROM.

Thanks
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Sheetzie03:
Wow I changed from Google to Huawei, brought back HDR+ but 100% lost true unlimited photo storage.

Chevy can you explain how you have both?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] bkrickles01:
Please tell us how. Thank you for a great rom
[Nexus 6P Android Development] :
+1 !!! and again thanks for this excellent ROM
[Nexus 6P Android Development] bonusax:
Same here, no hdr ?

What's the Gerard file that Can solve this problem?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] :
@ALL be careful "each media" Google Drive (web version) Storage Used information is WRONG

take a look at my screenshot below:

an old video taken by an iPhone in March 2016, located in my Google Photos : Storage used 0 bytes...

FAKE

do not trust this information...

I think the only way to check the TRUE storage information is going here :

https://www.google.com/settings/u/0/storage?hl=en
[Nexus 6P Android Development] tropical cactus:
https://xdaforums.com/nexus-6p/themes-apps/zip-pixel-mod-t3505693

But now, I'm really confused about drive. It says unlimited full resolution storage but drive says I have 15GB.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Sheetzie03:
All I do is go into the Google drive app, swipe from left, and click on storage, seems accurate to me.

And as I said above, I tried to switch Google to Huawei bec someone they did that and they had both working, well it didn't work, what it did was turned HDR+ on but removed full res unlimited storage, which is what I assumed it would do.

I guess we need to wait to see how Chevy was able to accomplish this.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] :
yes you're right

a trusted way to check unlimited storage :

upload 100 or 200 MB of photos/videos thru your nexus and check 2 or 3 minutes later this page to verify if Google Photos storage Details changed (click on VIEW DETAILS)

https://www.google.com/settings/u/0/storage?hl=en
[Nexus 6P Android Development] bonusax:
Oh thanks!!

I thought it was only a Little file,not the pixel mod complete;)

So i had to flash this mod over the ROM that is pixel look yet?

Thanks!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] tropical cactus:
Yes, just flash through twrp.

I think I have HDR+ and full resolution unlimited storage because when I go into google drive details, the last uploaded picture was 3.4MB but storage is 0.0KB. Is that correct? It looks like the screenshot posted by Chevycam94 earlier.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] :
it's NOT correct, read my last post... you have to check here : https://www.google.com/settings/u/0/storage?hl=en
[Nexus 6P Android Development] hawgguy:
Did not work for me.

Using Elemental EX kernel here. I wonder if the new bootloader has anything to do with it? Even with a full un-root it does not pass.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] tropical cactus:
It's the same as what my drive app is showing. Before uploading picture, total used by Google photos was 0.43 GB. Not a lot but it hasn't changed after uploading.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] drew_t:
Yes same problem here. Flashed Super SU and then Magisk but SafetyNet doesn't pass.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] note3userr:
Did u enable magisk hide? Can be cause of the new January update and elemental needs to update
[Nexus 6P Android Development] chevycam94:
OK, so Im thinking the only way to get both HDR+ and unlimited storage is to force the camera app to think its installed on the 6P and not the Pixel. Cant rely on the same build.prop entry that Photos does. But I dont know where the check happens. Any ideas? Ive got the current Camera app decompiled and Im sifting through all the smali and res files I can find.....blindly.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jhs39:
It seems like flashing Gerard's mod fixes the problem. Maybe you could flash it, compare the camera app before and after and see what changed?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] ncwildcat:
Im curious is there a way to not have the unlimited storage and use this rom? I have a big google drive space already so the hacked unlimited photos does me no good and I don't want to loose the HDR+
[Nexus 6P Android Development] drew_t:
Thanks for the help.

Turns out super user that wasn't compatible. So i fully unrooted and restored the boot image, then I rerooted with phh super user and installed magisk.

Now everything including SafetyNet is working!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] chevycam94:
His mod is included in my ROM. Of course, I added other tweaks, and things, but his full pixel mod is already baked into Cortex.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] chevycam94:
in build.prop change

ro.product.manufacturer=Google

to

ro.product.manufacturer=Huawei
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jhs39:
But something must have changed after flashing it since I have HDR+ now but didn't have it before flashing. And I'm not the only person this worked for.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] hawgguy:
Cool. What kernel do you use? I fail with Elemental

N.B.... Late edit. Success with Franco !!!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] bkrickles01:
Besides swift dark / black, any other dark themes compatible with this rom? Thanks
[Nexus 6P Android Development] drew_t:
Nice!

I didn't even use a custom kernel I think the new magisk will install it for you

---------- Post added at 01:30 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:11 AM ----------

Thanks.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] tropical cactus:
Ya, and can you please confirm if we really are getting full resolution unlimited photos as no one else seems to be sure. Thanks.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jhs39:
I don't know how to tell the difference between a full resolution photo and high resolution photo on the phone. All I can say for sure is that I took several photos and they didn't count against my storage. The backup menu still says unlimited full resolution photos but that doesn't necessarily mean it's true.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] tropical cactus:
I'm getting the same thing. So where are they all going?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jhs39:
They aren't supposed to count against your storage. I just can't tell if Google reduced the size of the pictures I took. Normally you get unlimited high quality photos but the mod in the ROM is supposed to give you unlimited full quality photos.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] chevycam94:
Copy the same photo, one from your phone, and the other from Drive, into the computer. Open them in an image editor and check their resolutions. If the one from Drive is smaller (in resolution) then it's not "original" quality.

[Nexus 6P Android Development] chevycam94:
Testing my new version now. If everything goes smoothly, I'll begin uploading it. I THINK I've fixed all the bugs that were recently reported in v1.10

UPDATE: So, after some brief testing, especially the issues you guys reported, it looks like I have them all squashed. I'm sure there's more, so as always, let me know what you find. I'm uploading v1.20 now. Going to take a while. Hour or two maybe. Decent changelog for this one, too.

[Nexus 6P Android Development] justin1221:
When I flashed the ROM alone, worked as it should without hdr. Flashed Gerald's mod and all it does is revert the build prop edit so that I got hdr but not unlimited back up. You can check this by going to your browser's and accessing Google drive from there. It will show you your actual storage.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jhs39:
Photo on phone is 3.26mb but in Google Photos is 1.78mb so it does eliminate Unlimited Original Quality photos.

---------- Post added at 07:45 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:43 AM ----------

I still show photos using no storage space on the web version of Google Drive. Are you saying that's not necessarily accurate?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] justin1221:
No, I'm just reiterating that if you flash the pixel mod over this rom, it might say unlimited full res back up in photos app but it's counting against your storage.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jhs39:
If it's counting against my storage why did Google reduce the size of the photos? You are supposed to get Unlimited High Quality Photos free on any phone with Google Photos app. I think the app is just acting the way it's supposed to. It looks like you need to decide which is more important to you--HDR+ or unlimited original quality photos. I prefer HDR+ feature.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] :
Read this : https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=70502570&postcount=1355

I can confirm "no storage space on the web version of Google Drive" is absolutly NOT true / accurate.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jhs39:
I did a little research. Both are not working in Megapixel. People are having the same issue as here--either HDR+ or Unlimited Original works but not both at the same time.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] :
hey guys,

there's an easy way to have both, but not at the same time ;)

what i do personnaly : I let Huawei in the build.prop 99% of the time to use this great feature HDR+ auto, in the main time i turn off Google Photos Auto Backup

once a week, i switch Huawei/Google in the build.prop, reboot, and sync all the media FULL RES. for free : it takes less than 5 minutes

it's not perfect obviously but IMHO it's better than choosing between 2 essential features
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jhs39:
The shortcut that person provided shows literally all of the exact same information as the web version and Android version of Google Drive . All three show photos taking zero storage space.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] vijaygogawale:
Just checked that a photo on phone has size 5mb, and same on desktop GDrive size is 5mb, that means it is full resolution photo.. With HDR.. Check file size, link of Drive https://drive.google.com/file/d/1daGwKdIGdF9_In2LiHsZwgBwppyy0QloYA/view?usp=sharing

[Nexus 6P Android Development] tropical cactus:
Good idea. I'll be doing that. In the meantime, I changed to Google in build.prop. No HDR+ but I uploaded an older photo taken with HDR+. It said 3.5MB for both size and storage, unlike before when storage said 0.0KB. I've turned off auto backup, switched back to Huawei and will be doing what you're doing. Thanks.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jhs39:
On Megapixel those original quality photos are actually counting against their total Google Drive Storage.

"Also, I'm pretty sure this ROM does not have true original quality uploading. I've never set the pics to upload that way prior to this ROM, and I don't often add things to my Drive. I've been taking a fairly large number of pics and UHD videos of my daughter ever since installing this ROM and my storage usage has gone from 6.x GB to 9.42 GB." rockingondrums 01-11-17 07:35am

If you are uploading Original Quality Photos they are likely counting against your storage whether you realize it or not.

---------- Post added at 10:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:29 PM ----------

Are you sure that works without counting against your storage? I thought meta information about the phone was stored as part of the original pictures. That would mean Google would recognize when you upload photos taken with Huawei as the manufacturer so if those photos are stored at original resolution they should count against your storage.

---------- Post added at 10:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:42 PM ----------

That's because the older photo shows Huawei as the phone manufacturer in the metadata. If you take photos with a phone other than the Pixel (which will show the manufacturer as Google) you get free high-quality photo backups but original quality backups (which are available to everyone, regardless of phone) count against your overall storage. I'm skeptical that changing the build prop back and forth will actually work like tropical cactus suggests because of precisely what happened to you--Google should be able to tell the difference between photos taken when the device was listed as Huawei or Google--unless they aren't using the line you are changing back and forth when making that determination.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] drew_t:
Well I'd rather have HDR than unlimited photo storage so I changed the build.prop and high quality backup is still good, if not just plug your phone into your computer the old fashion way.

This ROM is still awesome thanks [MENTION=2545403]chevycam94[/MENTION]
[Nexus 6P Android Development] tropical cactus:
Guess we'll just have to live with that. The thing I don't get is why drive is still limited to free 15GB storage while it says unlimited full resolution storage in Google photos. If we really are getting that, where are those full resolution pictures being stored?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] drew_t:
Im pretty sure even though it says that in google photos, it's actually uploading them in high quality which is unlimited.

If you want it to display correctly try flashing this fix from another rom it should work:

Love this ROM, but with the last update the battery life is very poor, also youtube is stuttering, need to restart the phone everyday. Photos are uploading in original size, witch is nice.

Pretty simple, unroot, login, then reroot, if you do a few minutes of research, you'll see this has been an issue on some other Roms and this was the way they did it. Or when first flashing ROM, dl Snapchat, login, then flash SuperSU

---------- Post added at 10:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:29 AM ----------

IMO it's not the ROM that's causing the YouTube issues. I would say IV noticed in the last 2 weeks, maybe a little more, this YouTube issue all of a sudden started happening, when watching a video, it randomly will freeze, but the audio continues. And it's usually 60 fps videos it's happening with, sometimes even non 60 fps 1080/1440p. Now, this is EXACT thing used to happen with the YouTube app back during Android L and M, I remember it precisely because i tried for weeks to find a fix, and I think it finally just stopped happening, I'm assuming it was on YouTubes end. So a few weeks ago, out of nowhere, this same thing started to happen. I thought it was something I did within a tweak or a ROM, then I remembered it's the same issue from a while back. If you do a few quick Google searches, you'll see exactly what I mean. Let's just hope Google fixes this s*** asap.

I had the same problem with battery life after the latest update and flashed vendor image, which didn't seem to help. However, the problem seemed to resolve itself after the ROM was running for a while. Battery life now seems to be what it was on the previous build.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] rowdyruffbrick:
Anyone having the 'camera error cannot connect to camera' error whenever launching the camera app via double pressing the lock button. Also, the photos taken would take at least a few seconds before they appear in the preview part of the camera at the bottom right hand corner rather than being instantaneous like in the previous versions. Have already tried camera nx, same result as well.

I get this error also. Only happens after I turn the phone on or restart. After this I have no problems with the Camera, other then the small delay with photos. Did'nt notice till just now.

If you're like me and you switch roms a lot or if you want to save yourself the Snapchat trouble. Get Titanium Backup and make a backup of Snapchat when you're logged in.
