Did you install through TWRP? If so did you choose the correct partition? I've flashed the vendor a couple times with this build with no problems.

---------- Post added at 11:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:53 PM ----------

Not on the current build.

[Nexus 6P Android Development] foeshigity:
It's strange to say the least, I've never had any vendor image issues until 4.0. Maybe I should re-download the ROM. I have tried multiple vendor images non seem to correct the issue.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Ibanez33:
I thought the vendor had to match the build number?

As in your NMF260 wants to be N4F26J.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] foeshigity:
So reinstalling a freshly downloaded 4.00 still results in NMF26O build, flashing N4F26J vendor image results in the same error. I'm at a loss. [emoji29]

Edit: NMF26F vendor image fixed the error, not sure why but oh well I'll take it.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Sheetzie03:
No they dont always have to match

---------- Post added at 03:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:05 PM ----------

Are you absolutely positive you are flashing the latest version of the ROM?

Also, are you on the radio and boot loader that is suggested? Just curious..

This makes no sense at all that 26J is causing an issues if you are on the latest version of the ROM.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Misiek_ud:
I have other question. Do you also have an old Google version? Without two switches on the bottom (with cards and sugested)?

HDR+

Thanks so much for this ROM. Just what I've been waiting for! I can't see HDR+ in the camera app or see it process after I take a picture. Am I doing g something wrong?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Sheetzie03:
Change build prop line from google to huawei and you'll get it back.

And next time, please dont quote the entire OP. Thanks
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Misiek_ud:
I flashed Gerard's mod over the ROM and have both options. Before, I was trying to change buildprop thru file manager, but it back to google every time. I don't know why.

Usually trying another buildprop Editor or file manager will eventually work.

Will have to try that mod soon to see if I can get both working.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] foeshigity:
Yes sure I'm on cortex 4.00 downloaded it twice. It's very strange indeed. Yes I'm on the most current bootloader and radio. So I'm not sure what's going on.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Sheetzie03:
You would think many others would also be having the same issue ya know? Idk
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Rynosensation:
Sorry for quoting the entire OP. I didn't know how to comment and that was the only way I could. I've been a member of XDA for over 6 years (hence rynosensation...HTC sensation) and never been permitted to make comments!

Ok so how do I change the build prop line? Many thanks in advance.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Misiek_ud:

Cortex has it included but I have hdr+ after that.

Make nandroid backup before.

Installed that and it's changed to huawei. Still no HDR+ ?

Sorry guys, my bad. I changed manafacturer like no doubt I was told to earlier and it's worked. Thanks for your help!

---------- Post added at 09:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:37 PM ----------

Thank you! I finally did it correctly. I now have HDR+ on this ROM. How do you know all this? Very clever. Many thanks!!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jhs39:
They both don't work. Saved photos reverted back to high quality instead of original quality even though it says original quality in backup setting. You have to choose between HDR+ or unlimited original quality photo backup because they don't work at the same time. Build prop needs to show Huawei for HDR+ to work and Google for unlimited original quality storage to work.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] chevycam94:
I'll try to make a fixed version tomorrow. At the moment, we can't TRULY have both HDR and Unlimited Original Backup. It's either/or.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] dice88:
Yes please!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Rynosensation:
I prefer having HDR+ to unlimited full res storage tbh. Obviously both would be better but if that's impossible then it is what it is. Great work! I'd you were to make a fixed version, could it be flashed as an update to the current ROM?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] chaostan:
I came from Nitrogen rom and just installed this rom. However noticed that ADB debugging not detecting ? Any workaround on this?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] :
Yes you can't have both "at the same time" but my workaroud works

I did it again last week-end, i can again confirm to ALL that THIS -> https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=70515234&postcount=1387 is working very well

Uploaded (with Google manufacturer) 120Mb of data (photos taken with HDR+ and Huawei manufacturer), checked my global storage 1h later, nothing changed

It works, anyone can try my method, you'll see

it's simple as a "build.prop edit + reboot"
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Sheetzie03:
I know this, I assumed you already knew you have to choose between one or other.

At the same time, some were saying they had both working by flashing Gerards mod. But Chevy said that mod was already included, so yeah quite the confusion.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Misiek_ud:
I think that not whole Gerard's mod is included.

After flashing Cortex there is no HDR+, only unlimited storage. There is also no booting sound.

After flashing Gerard's mod HDR+ backs and information about unlimited storage stays. But I didn't check is it really working.

I guess no.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Sandnes74:
Does this ROM have an option to choose what to install while flashing? I mean something like aroma installer, so it's possible to uncheck Tinted navbar, black bootloader and other things that's now wanted?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Misiek_ud:
No
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jhs39:
I never noticed booting sound until recently. I didn't realize flashing Gerard's mod was what caused the sound. Also have sounds when I send a text now.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] MikeOxlong2112:
So I'm still running 3.11 as things seem to be quite messed up with the camera and this google storage BS on version 4. Are there any plans to revert back to normal for the next release (or at least provide a normal option to the install)?

edit: I'd sooner have a working camera with all the auto hdr goodness than trying to scam google out of some storage space by defrauding them...
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jhs39:
You checked your global storage where exactly? On your phone? On the Google Drive website?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] maamdroid:
I tried this, though unsure how you then use the HDR+ feature?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] chaostan:
Hi... Anyone encounter this problem so far? I have no problem with other rom but just when I start use this rom, I have problem that my phone is not detecting the PC
[Nexus 6P Android Development] kakabobo:

No.

I just to know if anyone else is having this Snapchat beta problem, on my pixel the bug isn't present at all. Only plagues the beta version of this app. [MENTION=2545403]chevycam94[/MENTION] do u have a fix for this problem, maybe in a new rom update or zip file to kill this bug...help would be greatly appriciated, i attached a video below. detailing the bug.

[Nexus 6P Android Development] :
Just open your camera app, and check if you have a HDR button on top

To use it "properly", be sure to click on it and set it to HDR+ A (for automatic)

Also, use the "NX" version of camera app, a lot better

You blurred everything but it sure looks like photos are taking up space on your Google drive. I have over 50 HDR+ photos on mine and they take up 0 space.

---------- Post added at 05:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:24 PM ----------

I should rephrase that. The pictures were taken with HDR+ on and take up no drive space because they are stored at high quality instead of original quality.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] :
what are you talking about.... :eek:

they are stored at original / full res. quality.

i'm sure about what i wrote, thanks u

let me tell you i recheck by downloading all these photos on my laptop from Google Photos webapp on chrome

theses are the same 4mb files, full res, identical backup

moreover, you don't have to be a genius to watch the storage details, upload 100 or 200mb of data and check again your storage to see if it changed

try it if you can, you'll see
[Nexus 6P Android Development] ncwildcat:
Y'all do realize 100 gb of space is like 1.99/month.. Not very expensive, if you can't afford that maybe you shouldn't have a smart phone
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jhs39:
You missed the point of the exchange. Sunnyraid claims he has a workaround that allows him to take pictures in HDR+ then store them in full original quality without it taking up any space on his Google Drive. But in the blurred screenshot he posted it appears that photos are taking up space on his Google Drive.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] joooooooooosh:
Maybe they can afford it, but would also be willing to jump at the opportunity to access the unlimited original quality storage feature for free? :confused:
[Nexus 6P Android Development] :
OMG... guys

I'm a google photos user since day one (even before was using for 5 years picasa...)

so YES i use storage for PASTE photos synced in the last years because i ALWAYS used FULL RES backup option a long time before owning a nexus 6p and trying this new tweak...

so my global photo storage is actually 16,61gb and it doesn't change from that synce i'm use this tweak

i'll update my screenshot without the blur if you prefer :laugh:

What would be the best way to unroot? I have the Snapchat problem where I can't sign in due to root.

The easiest way is to probably download the free SuperSU app from the Play Store and unroot through the app.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] farhajder:
Which build prop line needs to be changed to Huawei?

Ro.product.brand

I just switched from Megapixel ROM to Cortex. The ROMs are similar. I'm liking cortex ROM so far. The only issues I had was the HDR+ not working (which started working when I flashed full pixel mod zip from gerad and possibly unlimited full resolution uploads like the pixel. How can I check my uploads are at full resolution?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] :
you can read the 10 last pages, we speak about checking that in details a lot of time

if you're not sure tell me

simply, another way we don't mention yet :

take a picture

transfert it via USB cable into your PC

also, upload/backup it thru Google Photos App on your Nexus

go to your PC and go to desktop version of Google Photos here https://photos.google.com/

download the picture on your PC and compare the 2 files

if they are the same (same weight in MB): it is an ORIGINAL / FULL RES backup

(right click on file / property if you're on windows)

last thing: check here your google photos storage doesn't change (you need to upload at least 50/100mb to be sure)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Sheetzie03:
Taking the time to Read? Before posting? That doesn't happen much on this site anymore unfortunately.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jhs39:
Flashing Gerads mod gives you back high quality backups instead of full resolution even though storage options say FR. You can't have HDR+ and Full Resolution at the same time without FR counting against your storage.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] chevycam94:
No. I want to try getting Aroma working, but it seems a bit confusing for me.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] tropical cactus:
Not asking for an ETA but any luck with hdr+ and unlimited full resolution storage? Someone was saying that Google can distinguish between a photo taken by a pixel and non pixel device.

so much talk about pictures its getting annoying ...
[Nexus 6P Android Development] russian392:
So im still on verison 3.10 and i was just using my device i put it down for a minute and then came back to google something real quick only to find my phone trying to boot up frantically on the boot animation. i left it like that for a solid 10 minutes and it hasn't booted up. wiped cache, dalvik etc, tried fixing se linux, tried reflashing super su and kernel. nothing...hell when i put it on the charger it doesnt show the battery logo that its charging.

great! soft brick for NO reason at all. guess ill try flashing 4.0 on top see if it works. if not google needs to fix these random bootloop bull**** already its been a whole month.

edit: sigh reflash of 3.10 didnt do anything. i dont want to wipe because i have so much important stuff on their that i dont have time to set up and i should be studying for exams but no i have to download 4.00 just to fix this bs and my slow af internet is not doing me any favors.

Try backing up your data partition and wipe and refresh the rom and restore your data backup either through TWRP or some kind of nandroid manager from the play store

Any chance of getting rid of tinted nav bar and get white boot animation?

As far as I know, pixel don't have black boot animation but white and also don't have tinted nav bar..
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jhs39:
A few people reported the same problem on a clean install of the current build. They reported that flashing Gapps fixed it.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] russian392:
After a clean install and update to 4.00 I can't use HDR+ in the camera...Any suggestions?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] CYoung234:
I think if you google Full Pixel mod from Gerard, you will get your answer. Basically, one of the things this mod does is to restore the HDR+ for the camera. You probably want to scan this thread back a few pages for more info.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] russian392:
Found it. It did work but in the end I had to reflash Google search as it disappears after flashing the mod....odd
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jhs39:
The build was altered to give Free Original Quality Backups in Google Photos but you lose HDR+ in the process since this isn't a Pixel feature. If you flash the mod the other commentor mentioned you will get back HDR+ but photo storage will revert to high quality since Google will know you don't have a Pixel and aren't entitled to the Free Original Quality Backups.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] tropical cactus:
Well, here's another point.

One of the distinguishing features of this ROM is full resolution free unlimited storage. As it hasn't been determined whether it is really working or not, users should be free to discuss it. If it is of no interest to you, you can always scroll up.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] DEVILOPS 007:
By unlimited storage do you mean just photos like the Pixel?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] tropical cactus:
Think that's the general idea... porting over Pixel's features.;)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] ncwildcat:
Are there after market cameras that utilize the hdr+?? That seems like it would be a great way to have both unlimited and hdr+

What about tormenting films if put in the right folder not that I endorse torrenting if it is illegal but would torrenting films be the same with unlimited storage?

No because the film has metadata attached showing that it was made with a Pixel.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jhs39:
So do you actually lose Cortex's build prop tweaks for speed or stability if Gerard's Pixel Mod is flashed to get back HDR+? I'm surprised nobody ever responded to this post. I'm curious about the answer myself. I haven't really noticed a difference in performance since flashing the mod. I do notice that I have sounds (bootup; text message) that I didn't have before. Are people sacrificing Cortex speed or stability by flashing this MOD?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] dekela:
I am getting audiofx FC from time to time.. any ideas ?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] chevycam94:
Like I said before. His mod is already a part of Cortex. Minus the sound during boot, and one or two other things. If you want HDR+ back, just change the one line in build.prop. if you flash his mod over Cortex, some apps may break, be incomplete, or have any number of other side effects. His mod was designed to be flashed over a purely stock Google image. Mine is far from stock, and many parts are not in their original locations. His mod doesn't do any integrity checks during install, just blind flashes everything.

Seriously, just change the one line in build.prop. You'll retain all my tweaks, and get back HDR+.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jhs39:
That's what I ended up doing but since people have been discussing flashing that mod since you released the latest build I'm guessing some people are going to be surprised to hear now that flashing it can potentially cause a multitude of problems.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] chevycam94:
Rule of thumb. If a mod is made to be flashed over a STOCK ROM, then don't expect it to work properly on a custom ROM. It expects files to be in specific spots. If the files don't exist, it'll never know.

For example, if I move Camera (and all its parts) to a different location, call it location B, and the mod only modifies the apk (but not the odex or oat files), and expects the apk to be in location A, then you will end up with a broken camera install. Actually to of them, one complete and functional, but a duplicate process from the other apk that doesn't have its other files with it, and is therefore broken.

You might get lucky and fix one problem, but can easily create a problem where there wasn't one before.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jhs39:
That's good to know. Since your rom is stock based and I know nothing about programming it never occurred to me that this might be the case.
