Well the good thing on this rom is that it's not quite as customized as the others, so there aren't many settings to set. :p

What I have noticed is that if I rely on Google to restore my apps(I wanted to try), most of them (or even all) do not get their data restored, even if they are targeted to Android M or N .

I use this app to backup&restore:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.k2.backup&hl=en

It's free and can do batch install .

TB has more features though, and TB can backup the external storage app's data when needed (though apps shouldn't rely on it usually anyway).

About the *Surround.zip file, I did flash it. It works fine:

http://xdaforums.com/nexus-5x/themes-apps/mod-surround-sound-testers-t3252659

It make the device use both front speakers. Sure the top one isn't as loud (and has worse quality) as the other, but it's better than just one speaker...

last night I got a notification on a google update, I didn't allow it to install but I'm guessing it tried to last night when I was sleeping because I woke up into a bootloop when I powered on my phone, so now I'm trying to reflash, my first attempt was a full wipe and reflash, didn't work because it got stuck on bootloader again so imma try flashing vendor again also

---------- Post added at 07:32 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:12 AM ----------

can someone helo me, my phone continues to bootloop for no reason, I woke up and It wouldn't boot it turned on and showed a black screen, I turn it off and turn it back on then it completely doesn't boot and bootloops at the beginning of stock bootloader, I tried reflashing tupac4u's rom, I tried reflashing the lastest factory images to return to stop and its still doing the same thing ???? someone please help

Is wifi tethering working for folks on this ROM? I tried it today and it didn't work.

Also, I am on T-Mobile and I know T-Mobile supports wifi calling. But wifi calling wasn't working either. Am I missing something?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] SlimSnoopOS:
Do you have Hangouts installed? I heard that's required for WiFi calling.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] Ofthecats:
Tethering may need a build.prop edit. Add net.tethering.noprovisioning=true

WiFi calling works on T-Mobile, and doesn't require hangouts.

Although, I've had mixes results. Certain roms work better than other. Stock is supposed to have it fully functional. Maybe check correct APN settings, as I always do this on clean install especially to fix MMS
[Nexus 5X Android Development] thorrules:
net.tethering.noprovisioning is already set to true. Also, I can send MMS just fine too, so I don't think there is anything wrong with my APN settings. Does tethering and/or wifi calling work for you, or are you only speculating what might be wrong?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] Natedog1:
I'm on T-Mobile and wifi calling works for me. As far as the wifi hot spot others can connect to it but they don't have any internet.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] thorrules:
Agreed same problem with wifi hotspot. It is a bit of a problem for me, since I might need it next week.

Wifi calling isn't a deal breaker. But I am not sure why it isn't working. All you do is enable wifi calling in settings and wifi preferred, right?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] Natedog1:
Yes. It's not instant though. When you leave then come back to wifi after a while it will turn on by itself.

I'm still trying to figure out why the hot spot isn't working on this rom though.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] thorrules:
Since I absolutely needed tether. I ended up flashing stock image, elementalx to maintain decryption and rooting it. Tether is working fine. So definitely an issue with the ROM.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] Natedog1:
OK thanks for letting me know. I figured it was.

[Nexus 5X Android Development] thorrules:
You don't need to flash any other kernel on this ROM.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] :
Whatever you want, the kernel included is great but you pick. The beauty of Android! R27 in several different toolchians from Despair or I found Racer kernel gives me the best battery and speed mix thus far on my device. I used with this rom for a week before I switched setups and it's great. :) Also the Linaro 6x is the better of them all I believe now far as what we have here,, imo anyway.

for the question,

would you (everyone) give me detail steps to use this rom,

i am now in nrd90s, locked bootloader and unroot

so , do i have to flash from start again?

and after i flash from start, how to begin to instal this rom (Nougat 7.0 NRD90S, vendor, Radio & Bootloader Flasheable zip NRD90S) ?

from this step, i got confused :

to flash no force encrytped kernel, the page one doesnt provide it. so do i have to search for by my self ?

I am currently running pure nexus 6.01 with latest Elemental X kernel. I have the same issue. Bluetooth playback when connected to vehicle is choppy. Does not matter what app (spotify, amazon, google play, youtube) does not affect phone calls over bluetooth, and does not occur when connected to my bose soundlink via bluetooth. Just started happening so I am thinking it might be kernel related? I have not updated the Pure Nexus ROM but was about to install this one instead of waiting on Pure Nexus due to the fact I can not connect music to my vehicle any longer.

Yes. The permissions are set the same. All are checked. Its only in my vehicle though, and it does not care about the app I use. I have paired my wife's stock 5x (N7.0) and my friend's One Plus 3.... No problems at all. I will flash another kernel and see if that fixes it

Working great so far with Magisk. Much appreciated. Might look into a custom kernel next. Thanks again.

Will Franco Kernel r19 work well with this ROM? Also any special instructions I need to follow? I am using Magisk so if that matters any help would be appreciated.

I'm using Franco kernel. No issues. I just flashed it, nothing else needed
[Nexus 5X Android Development] Seanbest:
I can flash it after the ROM and Magisk? I thought I read somewhere Magisk needed to be flashed after the kernel, but couldn't find it again. I posted there as well. Thanks though.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] rebretz000:
I always flash kernel after magisk. Franco uses any kernel so it's okay.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] Cilenco:
Is the vendor.img file the kernel or what is it? Do I necessary have to install it?

Sorry I come from an S4 Mini and there ROMs were always only one zip file so I'm a bit confused...

If not can I use the default kernel after the Nougat OTA? Or which kernel can you recommend?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] SlimSnoopOS:
Vendor: https://plus.google.com/+JeanBaptisteQueru/posts/akHWypRNEn3

Separate from every other partition. Think of it as important to install. Match this to your rom's OTA, so install this once a month or when moving between 6.0 and 7.0.

You can use whichever 7.0 kernel you want including the stock including one, just do not report any issues after installing in this thread.

Been away from the Rom scene for about 6 months does Android pay work with this rom using magisk? Or do you have to have Xposed installed also. I know last time I was in Xposed was incompatible with N. I am unfamiliar with magisk and did not know if you even needed Xposed?

Yes, I do. It doesn't work on stock. Therefore my question: does it work on this ROM?

The OP specifically says that Wifi Tethering is fixed. Since BT doesn't work in stock, the logical conclusion is that it also doesn't work on this stock derivative.

[Nexus 5X Android Development] gvsukids:

[Nexus 5X Android Development] Necrodaemon:
Yes, Wipe Data, flash vendor, flash ROM

fastboot flash vendor vendor.img
[Nexus 5X Android Development] gvsukids:
Is the first vendor, the vendor for the month? And the second vendor is a different vendor?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] Necrodaemon:
fastboot flash vendor (type archive)

vendor.img (archive)
[Nexus 5X Android Development] souleman:
You don't have to fastboot flash vendor. You only need to install vendor AFTER you install the ROM.

The ROM includes the vendor, but has an issue for some reason. So you have to flash vendor after the ROM or you have the one from the rom install.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] gvsukids:
I think I'm going to have to flash stock Google to fix this

[Nexus 5X Android Development] neo4uo:
Installed phh's SuperSU,magisk, automagisk was able to add a credit card to Android pay but unable to pay with Android pay.

Does the older script to remove su work on this ROM?

After I installed this ROM its perfect, no issues. but my Google play store purchases keeps saying "purchases have been disabled" and trying to restore my purchases doesnt work.

I expected that my device will be faster then wife's phone (she has Stock without any modification: no root, no unlock bootloader, keep encryption etc.). But e.g. in AnTuTu I get score about 61000 and my wife get about 64000.
