Before you flashed, did you wipe ALL partitions (except internal storage) first? Camera has a issue with its initial startup, but works fine after that. If you cant change the build.prop file, check SuperSU, and make sure you haven't denied root access to the app you're trying to use to edit it.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] AndrewM3:
Will it ever be possible to get the pixel original quality unlimited upload?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] chevycam94:
Ive been playing around with Google Assistant, and I cant get it to crash on me. I've changed every setting I can find, and accessed it from every angle. Its flawless here. Chances are that if its not working for you, its something you did (or didn't do). Be sure that you wipe (twice for everything) SYSTEM, DATA, CACHE, and DALVIK, before you flash the ROM and test it. If you don't, it's very possible that you could have issues. That's the process I use for every test, and each time I update my ROM. That's what I do to test each build, and make sure everything works before a release.

If I cant replicate an issue someone is having, I cant fix it. While I may miss odd bugs that you guys find, I do try to replicate as much as I can. If I CAN replicate it, I will try to fix it (and now add it to the bugreport section here).

I'm not trying to sound mean or anything, don't get me wrong. But if something works for me, and not for you, try a few more things.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] chevycam94:
I'm not sure anyone has gotten that to work on a non-pixel phone. Only unlimited HIGH quality. Some devs just put "unlimited photo upload from Pixel", and dont say if that means HIGH or ORIGINAL. Be careful of the wording.

If someone has done it, by all means, let me know. I've been looking for a couple weeks, and still found ONLY unlimited HIGH quality uploads.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] JDogg1329:
Google Assistant is also working flawlessly here, dirty flashed from 3.00 to 3.10. I have gotten no sim card every now and then but can't seem to replicate it, probably just because I cut my sim card down to size tho

Same hear ?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] joethinksblue:
Google assistant works fine for me but when I try to use the voice input from keyboard it crashes. I wiped everything. Flashed ROM twice and still have the same problem.

Hey guys need a little help, whats the exact procedure to flash cortex if am now on Benzo. Phone is unencrypted running benzo on an earlier bootloader and vendor. its on november patch. Can anyone list out the steps? Just to not brick the device..Thanks
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jhs39:
Somebody posted a fix for the Google Assistant crashing issue that I got via email but I don't see it in the messages here. Was it deleted? If so did the solution cause problems ?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] chevycam94:
Can someone give me the steps to replicate the Assistant voice crash?

And if someone find a fix, let me know, I'll try to incorporate it into my next release.

And please include the steps needed to replicate a bug when submitting a bug report, wherever possible. ?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] JDogg1329:
I know this doesn't help you at all but voice input is working fine here also, just dictated a text message. What keyboard are you using? I just installed the latest Gboard apk (Newest google keyboard)

Thank you for that info mate, if it keeps happening I'll flash 3.75 :)

Google Assistant Crash

I can't replicate the steps, unfortunately. I installed your ROM 5 times. When the ROM is clean and nothing is installed on top of it Google Assistant works perfectly. By the time I am finished installing my apps it constantly crashes. I think there is probably a compatibility issue between something I installed from the Google Play store and Google Assistant but I was never able to figure out what app or apps might be causing the problem. I didn't install anything that didn't come straight from Google Play.

I got a message from someone named kennyh32701 stating that installing Open Gapps Mini fixed the Google Assistant crash problem. It did for me as well, but I think it might just be a temporary solution that works because it is installing Gapps after all of my other apps are already on the phone. If there is a compatibility issue with an app using or updating that app could bring the crash problem back again.

I could also be completely wrong--I'm not the most tech savvy person in the world. Is there any way to get a debug report for when a Google app crashes?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] bambiboer:
Flash rom and custom kernel. Bootup until android screen. Make a twrp backup. Full wipe again and change data to f2fs. Then restored the backup. And the camera won't work even when in restart my phone and start the camera app serval times. I used BuildProp (with root acces) to edit the file but I doesn't work. Then I did an adb pull but when I try to push it back, it gives me the following error: 'system read only' then I try do remount system but that doesn't work either
[Nexus 6P Android Development] dekela:
Today I had a strange issue. I got a call and when it ended the call notification stayed on although the call has ended. It was showing answer or decline and was not responding to any of my touch events. Eventually the phone app crashed.

Anyone seen this before?

Cortex 3.10 default kernel.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Sheetzie03:
Iv experienced quite of few Roms with the pixel only unlimited original quality feature on the 6p. However, most times, it was a non stock based ROM, combined with open gapps that allowed it to work. So Roms like this for example, were a no go... Now, IV been using only stock based roms like this one or a few other similar ones on XDA, so it's probably been over month since I've used a ROM with that feature working. Meaning, google could have fixed the issue, Bec it was obviously something that shouldn't of been happening, so they could have fixed that.

I gotta say tho, I'm surprised Chevy didn't know this was the case and many users had this feature on their 6p's over the last few months.

Unless maybe I'm mistaken in someway. All I know is that there were atleast 5 different Roms, where you would open the photos app and instaed showing the 2 different qualities, it only showed one, saying Welcome to your pixel with Unlimited full quality images. I guess there's a chance it could of said that, but not actually given you the feature, but I could of swore I did a few tests, and from the phone it was working. Now when I went to computer, it did not. But I think the actual Pixel is the same, it's a phone only feature.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] joethinksblue:
Steps to replicate my issue are very simple. Go to messages bring up keyboard and switch to voice input and that's when it crashes. Google assistant works fine for me though
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Lijop:
no one to help??
[Nexus 6P Android Development] CYoung234:
Well, you are probably safest doing a clean flash. Steps:

1. Make a nandroid of your current ROM.

2. If you normally back your apps up with Tibu, do that.

3. Reboot into recovery.

4. Wipe using the standard factory reset.

5. Install Cortex

6. Wipe dalvik and regular cache.

7. Reboot

8. Profit.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] CYoung234:
Here is a logcat for the voice crash. This only happens for me when Google voice typing is enabled and I press the mic button.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] CYoung234:
Anybody else do a comparison between v2.10 and v3.00 and v3.10? For me, v2.10 was bulletproof. The last two upgrades do not seem to bring anything to the table, and cause some additional problems. The only problem I had was with adb on v2.10, and the workaround posted for it worked great, no more problem. So, I am likely going to go back to the nandroid I have of v2.10 for now. This probably sounds like I am complaining, but it is not intended that way. I am just noting that for me, the last two releases do not add anything that is compelling as far as features or functionality.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Lijop:
Thanks. But no need to flash boot or radio?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] justin1221:
You couldn't have read the instructions, it says vendor files included.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] bkrickles:
Well, thank you for making me look again. I zipped through the feature list and didn't see that.

What I looked at more closely was this:

Installation:

1: Make a backup

2: Wipe system/data/cache/dalvik

3: Flash ROM

4: Reboot and enjoy!

Thanks for responding so quickly. This seems like an interesting rom to consider.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] chevycam94:
No. The vendor is included in the ROM zip, and flashed when then ROM is flashed. You should be good to go.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] joethinksblue:
google assistant keeps force closing when i try to use it, same with rom toolbox (app).. is it just me?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] chevycam94:
I'll look at it later. Worked fine for my initial tests
[Nexus 6P Android Development] joethinksblue:
after doing another clean install no more force closing but there is no google assistant instead is Now on tap
[Nexus 6P Android Development] chevycam94:
Hmmmm, maybe I got some leftovers from my other install by mistake. I'll try on lunch.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] OneNutShort:
Did a clean install of this ROM, but for whatever reason I can't get the camera to work. It launches, but is just black. I have seen others have this problem with 7.1, but unless I'm mistaken it's a kernel issue. I didn't flash a custom kernel, so I'm not sure what would be causing it. Does anyone have any ideas?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] joethinksblue:
i had the same issue.. i had to delete it then reinstall it from the playstore.. first time its going to force close but it will work fine after
[Nexus 6P Android Development] chevycam94:
My camera only FC'd on the first open. Just close it, and reopen Camera and it's good to go.

This includes the stock kernel. The only changes were to disable verity checks and disable force encryption.

A noob question. how do you guys restore your phone after clean flashing?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] CYoung234:
You said you were on the November patch, correct? You should be okay, but boot into bootloader to check the radio to be sure you are on 3.78. The bootloader will not be critical, but I think chevycam94 says you need to be running the 3.78 radio.

I've ran 2.10, 3.00, and 3.10. All releases have been totally solid for me, with no problems.

Only "issues" I'm really seeing here are random assistant problems. Which I don't have.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nachman11:
So far, reboot for the substratum to work, give me bootloop
[Nexus 6P Android Development] RayMcGrath:
Only Swift dark and Swift black themes work on this ROM. It's in substratum Legacy.

While in bootloop, go into recovery.

In twrp, find your substratum folder and flash the legacy repair zip. It will remove layers and boot up normally.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nachman11:
I was tryin it with Swift black 7.1.1... It should reboot normally i guess..

Nandroid backup

Just a warning. I came over to this ROM from the latest stock 7.1.1 Dev build. I had 3 Nandroid backups I made with TWRP on my phone.--the last immediately before I flashed the ROM. When I was having problems with the Google Assistant crashes I decided to restore my latest backup, which put me in a soft boot loop. None of my three backups would restore. Since I didn't think of it, I didn't enable USB debugging in Cortex ROM so I couldn't do anything with fastboot to get my phone back. I had to reinstall Cortex Rom from the zip on my internal memory. Maybe I was doing something wrong but I've been flashing ROMs for years and never had a problem where my backups wouldn't restore.

You just flashed GoogleAssistantVelvet.zip and not the other two files, correct?

[Nexus 6P Android Development] jhs39:
Did you use a 7.1 compatible theme like Swift Black or Swift Dark? I think there's supposed to be a rescue zip inside the Substratum folder that you can flash. If you use a compatible theme you shouldn't get a boot loop. I'm using Substratum on this ROM without any problems.

anyone running 3.75 radio on v3.10 ?? >getting ready to fastboot old radio ..the .3.78 radio drops regulary with t-mobile in my area .. lastpass working fine for me .
[Nexus 6P Android Development] chevycam94:
Unfortunately, this one may be out of my control. I'm not sure why so many are having issues. My best guess is leftover parts from an old install, flashing something in addition to the ROM zip, etc.

For example, when you flash Cortex, do NOT flash anything else. No mods, no kernels, nothing. Set it up, and test it out first. If you have to, after that, flash and test ONE mod at a time, until a feature breaks. Then you'll know what causes the conflicts.

Even better, is now that ADB is back up and working, grab a log of the crash, and link me to it in a bugreport here.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] grv00711:
everything working > 3.75 radio flash no issues > the rom is clean and fast !
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jhs39:
I never flashed any mods or custom kernels or anything like that--just apps from the Google Play store. I tried installing one app at a time and checking Google Assistant after each but beyond being unbelievably time-consuming it didn't work. At one point I thought there was a conflict with Nova Launcher so I started from scratch. Then it appeared there was a problem was with Substratum and I started from scratch. Then it appeared the problem was with another app--etc. I finally gave up. It seems like there is an issue with your integrated GApps because flashing Open GApps or flashing GoogleAssistantVelvet.zip fixes the problem.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] FanDroid09:
I really don't think you're missing much man. I spent plenty of time getting F2FS to work. And I honestly am not convinced its anything more than placebo.

Granted I didn't run it for an extended period of time... But I doubt that it has any affect on battery life. And performance seemed very similar.

EDIT: But if you're determined to get it working I think [MENTION=2238538]OmegaBlaze[/MENTION] may be the guy to ask. I'm guessing he has the most experience getting F2FS running at this point.

(Sorry in advance for mentioning you Omega, if you're not down with that.)

4. Reboot into fastboot

5. On computer issue "fastboot wipe userdata"

6. Still in fb. "fastboot flash recovery F2SF TWRP" OR WHATEVER YOU NAMED IT.

I'm running v3.10 right now. (of course). As of yet, not a single build since 2.10 (including v3.xx) has given me any issues. Launcher, Assistant, Browser, WiFi, NavBar, framework, nothing. Believe me, I test them out. Before v3.10, each app I manually optimized and compressed I tested on a clean install to make sure all their functions worked. Those that didn't, got reverted back to their stock form, and I moved on to the next app.

I would really help if someone could get a logcat of the crash in Assistant. I can hopefully identify what's causing it, and by contrast, rule out what's not. ?

[Nexus 6P Android Development] saadi03:
Hey Chevy,

Earlier in the thread, I saw that you mention the camera has issues with initial start as well. For me it crash first time I open it on every reboot, is that normal? I did a clean install following your instructions. Only changes I made were removing busybox and root, flashing flash kernel, and using magisk and phh su.

By the way thank you so much for the ROM! This is the first one I've used in years, (kept my phones stock for a long time) and I love it.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] MoNsTeReNeRgY22:
Anyone having data connectivity issues? I am on T-Mobile and periodically I will just loose LTE and sometimes it even reports no SIM card inserted if I leave it without LTE for long enough. Airplane mode and data toggle don't work, only a full reboot fixes it.

If you use the right kernel there are gestures you can employ. Instead of doubletap to sleep I have been using sweep the nav bar left/right to sleep and also swipe up to wake.
