Make sure USB debugging is enabled. Tap the MIUI version a bunch to activate developer options. Then connect to your pc. Make sure your device is recognized by adb. Start the logging with adb logcat. Trigger the error. Then see what the log says.

I managed to give play services full permissions using nova launcher. Just download, open, create widget "activities" scroll down to settings and find installed apps (applications.ManageApplications) then launch widget, scroll down to play services, permissions and turn them all on.

Has anyone been able to increase the navbar size and also the notification bar/status bar? The notification icons are extremely tiny

Right! Hard to see the clock, e.g.

Flashed ROM using multirom but I have google play services fc :( any way of fixing it? I saw a "fix" earlier that I'm going to try right now.
[Nexus 6P General] HikingMoose:
That worked!

I'll clarify a little, because it took me a while to find it. After you click the add widget option, you scroll to the right through the types of widgets, and there's an "activities", after holding that to add it to desktop, a big menu pops up. Scroll down to the S's and find the second "Setting", DON'T click it, there's a drop down next to it. Click the drop down, then find "Manage APP" in small print it will say .manage application.

Hope that helps others that have never used nova widgets (like me). I wasn't scrolling down to settings, I kept trying to find application manager in the first big menu. Thank you Dhutchi3!

I hope themes will help with seeing the statusbar and navbar. White on white is almost impossible to see!!! On the homescreen, if you have a dark wallpaper, they're easy to see. But any other time, you can't.

---------- Post added at 11:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:52 PM ----------

Did you apply the script that's mentioned in the instructions for getting rid of the FC's? There's also a new method that might help that was described just a few minutes before your post.
[Nexus 6P General] :
Great! Just now I want to try this. Run userinit.sh to solve FCs.

PS - How did you flashed vendor.img?! There's not such a feature in MultiROM.
[Nexus 6P General] barrackOBAMA:
first thing first is i want to say thank you TranQuil and everyone in the thread that got the rom booted with gapps and working root.

I do hope you feel the love and appreciation the community gives you while ignoring the ones who just take and complain.

I apologize as my understanding of development for my phone only extends to a trail and error (or testing) of the software.

With that being said i have tried to get a log cat of a FC through adb devices only for mine to appear as offline. (still not sure how to fix)

also still in the process of learning how to take a logcat using the app CatLog and export as a .txt file for you to read since it is lengthy.

Regardless, i am having trouble removing the "Quick Ball" under additional settings. I was setting up my phone and in some point in the process i noticed it on my homescreen and it works fine. but i do no want it and if i click on it in settings i just get an FC for it. so if anyone knows a quick fix for that. (possibly some file in titanium backup i can delete?) that would be greatly appreciated until i can post a log cat.

Also for some other stranger news i have yet to see anyone get to much comment on, My themes seem to be partly working. settings>themes and i am able to apply "High Life" theme along with the other themes listed.

however when i click "Get more themes for Free" i get the expected themes FC

which raises an interesting question about being able to apply the preloaded themes on Miui.

just an idea, but worth a shot. If we can get themes downloaded outside of the nexus and then either compile them into the rom or just .apk files (not sure how the theme files come) if they will apply like the rest of mine do.

or its an idea for at least someone to mess around with and see if they have any luck.
[Nexus 6P General] tr4nqui1i7y:
Themes are stored as .mtz files. You can download them online if you wish. I'll see about potentially building some in. I'd rather figure out the issue and fix it though.
[Nexus 6P General] mattlowry:
Themes work if you download from the web
[Nexus 6P General] Galaxysm:
I didn't flash IMG lol, I also was like "how do I flash IMG" lol..but flashed ROM and gapps only and rebooted...for fc I did the same like the other guys...from nova,widget,activities, etc so everything running good :) thanks a lot for bringing MIUI to our phones :D

Ill update my post (the one linked in the OP) for themes.

If you guys come up anything else, please share :)
[Nexus 6P General] MorphiousGX:
Thank you for the instructions. However I don't recall that the Nexus 6p has an SD card. So I think the instructions might be incorrect
[Nexus 6P General] HikingMoose:
I've only been able to download one so far! There are some very nice ones, but there is no way to download them.
[Nexus 6P General] barrackOBAMA:
He is simply referring to the internal storage. unless he knows of an Sd Card slot that i have yet to find???:fingers-crossed: lol jk

i kinda throw all of my stuff in the Download folder from my pc.

but if you use any file explorer. at the first level of folders (if this makes sense) you will find a file called "sdcard" which contains all internal storage files you are used to seeing.

such as

[alarms,android,DCIM, downloads, picture, Podcast,TWRP] ya know. hope this clears confusion.
[Nexus 6P General] sachindpai:
Is it working
[Nexus 6P General] Galaxysm:
Did u install it?? I downloaded one but idk how to install mtz files lol.
[Nexus 6P General] pacods61:
ive installed a few looking good they automatically install go to setting themes to apply.
[Nexus 6P General] HikingMoose:
Mine did not automatically install. And there is nothing but the 5 default themes in Settings>Themes. Perhaps I need to restart? I placed the files in the Themes folder, should I put them somewhere in the download folder instead?
[Nexus 6P General] pacods61:
i didnt

i just downloaded and went to the themes and they were installed.
[Nexus 6P General] HikingMoose:
OK. I downloaded on a PC and then transferred then right to the themes folder under MIUI. Maybe that's where I went wrong.

I was able to get like 10 themes downloaded for MIUI 8. I've put some in the download folder, and some in the Theme folder. Nothing is showing up, or able to be applied. I just rebooted as well, to see if it would find them, no dice.
[Nexus 6P General] shykidd:
How do i flash this rom , i tried Fullota and the vendor img and waited 40min still wont boot.. Am on the latest android version.
[Nexus 6P General] MorphiousGX:

[Nexus 6P General] mattlowry:

Well not exactly working. the options are there for recovery and fastboot but they don't work
[Nexus 6P General] HikingMoose:
You flash it in recovery. Wipe everything except internal storage.

Ok lets see

The way i got themes was to create an mi account download the themes and they automatically installed. Anybody was to chime in here lol. My main concern is i cant get message notification sound anybody figure that out yet? I got all the other sounds but no message sounds lol
[Nexus 6P General] Galaxysm:
Still no go for me, mi account in the MIUI app?
[Nexus 6P General] pacods61:
No

On the phone itself go to accounts create mi account. Then go to the link provided in the op you have to reply to thread to be able to download. So sign into it with the account youre going to make and voila you can download them.

[Nexus 6P General] CappyT:
[MENTION=3745842]tr4nqui1i7y[/MENTION]

Well, I messed up with the rom a bit, but when I came here checking the progress, well, seems you get farther then I did.

So, since the time is really strict on me, I'm here to help on strictly linux-like things, ofc if you need that. (since I'm a sysadmin, not a coder)

Great job for the things you've done here, really.

I might check into gapps bug thingy, but since I miss the source code, I will wait until there's an adb working build.

I don't wanna overlap things with my fixes/workarounds over yours.

Another note... I think you should request the thread moving to original development, since the rom is now in a bootable/usable state.

Thank you very much!

Edit: Too many "since". Well... english is not my main language, sorry...

Working on assembling a new package that will install as many of these tweaks together as possible. That way users won't have to jump through hoops to have a usable ROM.

[Nexus 6P General] :
Could you please be more specific? How to delete Theme Manager?! With Root Explorer? And what are the correct permissions, please?
[Nexus 6P General] skw5115:
I uninstalled it using titanium backup. Then rebooted and just installed the app. Worked like a charm for me
[Nexus 6P General] tr4nqui1i7y:
Ok, this should be the current install method that people are following. As of Oct/13/16

Download the necessary apk files and place them on your sdcard/emulated storage. (Keyboard of choice, rom manager/smanager, titanium backup, and working theme manager)

Wipe Dalvik, system, data, and cache

Flash fullota, vendor, gapps, superuser

Allow the rom to boot. Takes roughly 10 minutes for the first boot. You will experience some force closes

Pull the notification shade down, hit the gear icon to get into options. Go to about phone. Tap MIUI version until you have developer options.

Go back to settings, then find additional options. Scroll down to "Allow USB debugging". Check the box next to this option

Open permissions, application found on your homescreen select bottom option for root. Check the box and accept the prompt

It will say that it failed

Go to the homescreen and delete the supersu application (drag the icon to the top of the screen)

Open the file manager application and install Titanium backup. (This will help you determine if you're rooted)

Open script manger(browse as root). Navigate to /data/local/ and run userinit.sh as root.

Your gapps should now be functioning without force closing.

Now delete the themes application. (use a root file explorer, I use solid explorer. Theme manager is located in /system/apps/)(restart your device)

Install the theme manager from your sdcard

(You can download themes from Here (place them in the /miui/theme/ folder

Finally, fix file sharing issues by enabling Documents in the installed apps settings. (It is disabled by default. You'll have to enable it after every reboot)

To download off of Wi-Fi, go to downloads app, settings, change limit to your liking.

To keep documents enabled after reboots, follow theses instructions:

Enable Documents in "installed apps" settings

Go to developer options

Disable MIUI optimizations

Accept and reboot

EDIT: OP updated. New links, thanks, and other stuff.
