[Nexus 6P General] volcs0:
My upgrade from PureNexus was super easy and painless.

I am encrypted with a pattern. I also have simcard lock set up.

I did not disable these prior to upgrading. It asks me to put in the pattern before starting up TWRP.

1. Backed up using TitaniumBackup (first to /sdcard/ then copied to my computer)

2. Used fastboot to flash latest TWRP recovery

3. Went into recovery and wiped (standard wipe)

4. adb pushed the nougat ota.zip over and flashed it, the did davlik/cache wipe

5. rebooted, let google download and re-install my apps (about 50% of them, which I selected during the process)

6. Turned on developer tools, activated ADB

7. Downloaded SuperSU, rebooted into recovery, flashed

8. Rebooted, now rooted

9. Copied over my TitaniumBackup folder (adb pull from the folder on my computer)

10. I use TitaniumBackup on a case-by-case basis to put back info and configurations for apps from my backup.

Like I said, about as painless as any upgrade I've done.

I may stay on stock for awhile - it is fast and really smooth and the battery life has been terrific compared to before my upgrade (which could also be to the absence of some of the apps I chose not to re-install).

So you upgraded from PN. You may run into problems. Stock vs AOSP ROM are different "language". Anyways good luck.

im having trouble with adaway, it cant seem to write to the host files. is anyone else having this issue?

what i did:

flashed 6.0.1 factory image onto my device

adb sideloaded 7.0 update

installed twrp recovery

installed supersu with twrp

chmod 751 /su/bin/ (for android pay with root)
[Nexus 6P General] Raistlin1:
This app worked after toggling on and off numerous times, thank you!

You have to keep toggling on and off and after numerous attempts it works, just read all of the reviews.

Download Mode: DISABLED

Trying to flash this rom and noted the above in the Bootloader screen. "Download Mode: DISABLED"

I was wondering if anyone knows how to fix.

Also error message at the bottom "Connect USB Data Cable"

When the phone is booted it will see my phone under Adb Devices but not in fastboot devices. I am not sure what to do.

TWRP is working just fine and device is rooted.

Here are the entire bootloader status

Last I heard, Magisk enables one to pass SafetyNet, but making purchases still doesn't work.
[Nexus 6P General] Pig Vomit:
Magisk with phh 17 does allow me to unmount root, then make a purchase. The key on AP is to click the "+" to add a card. This forces AP to run a new SafetyNet check, and you'll pass. Cancel adding the card, then make your purchase. Only problem I've run into, and it's a pain in the butt, is a reboot is needed to remount root. Make sure you have Magisk Manager and Phh apps installed.

I'm stock 7.0 except for Magisk and phh.
[Nexus 6P General] ArmStrongDickPunch:
Ok so I've read through the whole thread and found a few answers to my question but I just want to double check before hand, and I know a few people posted similar questions but I just wanted to make sure what I'm doing is correct.

I'm on dp5 rooted with the new twrp and I downloaded the 7.0 (the 1.5gb OTA)

How I plan on updating (which is how I updated the the developer previews) (which is what I want to make sure is correct) is flashing through FlashFire

So my plan is to load FlashFire and flash modified boot img, vendor img, and system img, and SuperSU v2.76

Thanks for any input.

The A57 processor is not always working

I found right after upgrading to nougat 7.0 ,lagging specially with games and when I checked my device with CPU -z and Devcheck found that the high processor is offline kept checking it for a whole day and it goes offline and online

Is that normal or there is something wrong with my Nexus 6p

Is anyone else having a LOT of lag?? My girlfriend and I have 6ps and have upgraded to N tonight with the beta program. I am rooted, and she's not, so she just installed the OTA, I however was still on the february security OTA of Marshmallow and so I used FlashFire to install it. We are both having input lag from the keyboard and the phone OS overall. Battery isn't too good either... :/ She's completely stock mind you and is still having lag. Even has a locked bootloader.

Are we the only one?

i've been using nougat for 2 days now, and i notice some difference:

- battery life is worse, Android System process is taking more juice than screen (this never happened in MM)

- imprint is slower, and after unlock, the screen goes black and then load the wallpaper. the process is less 1 second but it is noticeable..

anyone experiencing the same?
[Nexus 6P General] snappycg1996:
Got the wallpaper issue myself too. N feels very unfinished...
[Nexus 6P General] rusty-ragster:
i have enabled it in settings-notifications-pulse notification light. did i miss enabling it anywhere else?

Same thing here, a LOT of lag, poor battery life, imprint taking over a second to unlock, I'm seriously considering on going back to mm

I am on MM rooted with some system apps removed. Can i upgrade to Nougat using FlashFire?
[Nexus 6P General] rockyrocker:
Agree... Android system seems to be eating more of the juice, SOT is behind Android system though I got 3h17m yesterday.. Worst part was I slept with 15% battery on and when I woke up, its switched off. Then when I noticed battery stats, android system has been eating it and drained the battery. The previous night I had only 3% drain overnight.. not sure if Dose is working or what's up with Android system. I hope the next update is more stable and has better battery life. Seems they rolled this out just to stay with the dates committed/speculated.
[Nexus 6P General] telc:
Having issues with lag here too intermittently. Reboot fixes it. Imprint does seem slower. Will wait for factory image to appear and see how it goes after a complete fresh install.
[Nexus 6P General] march83:
For me, scrolling is just awful in all apps. Reddit, Chrome, whatever, it's just stuttery and laggy and very tiring.

Mine was 6.0.1 with the OTA sideloaded. I did a factory reset afterwards, tried relocking bootloader and doing another factory reset. Still rubbish.

Hanging out for those full images so I can flash from the ground up and hopefully that will help. Not looking forward to rebuilding my phone for the 4th time in a week though :\
[Nexus 6P General] mobileman88:
Should be the same. But I always do the former
[Nexus 6P General] xtracter360:
Does anybody know why does it take so long to release the factory images? :confused:
[Nexus 6P General] myawan:
I also want to know. I understand patience is required but then what makes you different than a Samsung user? They wait and you also wait. The word 'wait' does not exist in Nexus user's dictionary, we got Nexus over anything else because we hated waiting on our Samsung devices :)

I may sound childish but that's how I am and I want my voice heard.

It was better if they didn't release anything than this half confusing release. I am using Nougat OTA on my Nexus 5x but I am not sure why there is no factory image released, which makes me think that I may be using a buggy release. :(
[Nexus 6P General] Won't be druv:
I think you may be right. Perhaps they are withholding factory images until they fix nougat.
[Nexus 6P General] mzone1510:
Well I am having an issue with Bluetooth audio on Nougat on the Nexus 6P. Ever since the update when I connect to my JBL Flip 2 Bluetooth speaker, the volume is too loud! It's like 100% of the max output level is being output at the 50% level of the volume progress bar, it does let me go higher but anything above that is jarring and distorted. Each volume level now represents a large jump between steps (could say equivalent to 2 steps on Marshmallow). This means that I am not able to fine tune my volume levels as it is either too loud or too soft! It's kind of like double amplified if that makes sense.

In developer settings there is a toggle to 'Disable Absolute Volume' but it seems to make no effect and turns itself off every time I enable it and turn on my Bluetooth and establish a connection. I have also tried un-pairing and re-pairing my speaker but to no avail.
[Nexus 6P General] raymckenz:
Why are people *****ing so much about battery life this that.... Yes it's an official release but still... Not everyone is going to have the same experience... Usually they push the update out to get feedback and they work and all the problems ppl have reported over time b4 it's ever going to be perfect... Hey maybe that's why the factory image isn't out yet... You guys just need to have some patience

Anybody knows a method to block YouTube ads? Have adaway installed. Thanks

Edit: I used to use YouTube adaway but since no xposed asking for alternative.
[Nexus 6P General] baconbh8:
We ***** so much about this issues because it's the official release, this issues are fine on the beta but not on the official release, this was supposed to make the android experience better, not worse like it's doing. I always take the mom approach on official updates, that is would my mom think her mobile is broken after the update and want a new one? If the answer is yes than the update was not ready for release. We are early adopters and are used to issues but the vast majority are not.
[Nexus 6P General] therock3181:
Xposed not supported yet on Nougat.
[Nexus 6P General] rockyrocker:
I know.. that's the reason I am asking if anyway we can use adaway to block youtube ads :)
[Nexus 6P General] therock3181:
Not that I know of. Look on AdAway thread.
[Nexus 6P General] rockyrocker:
Yes, looks like it.. have to wait for Xposed then!

AdAway unfortunately can't block in-app ads.

Dude, you are wrong. It's an official release, it should be properly tuned. Battery sucks and the phone heats as hell.

As I said everyone's having different experience I have had no issues thus far and I've been running nougat for the past 48hrz....just saying
[Nexus 6P General] aramil:
yeah sorry to be one of those guys, but i am not getting any over-heating and my SOT is over 5hrs (as yesterday), rooted and TWRP installed.

Milage will vary upon useage but it has only been a few days so not in any way conclussive.
[Nexus 6P General] snappycg1996:
Nice to hear we aren't the only ones with lag. Bad imprint, wallpaper reloading, imprint does feel slower too, and FB and IG it seems are giving most issues. As said, this wouldn't be a problem if this was a beta release, but it's the official release! No excuse. Lollipop's released BOMBED hard and MM was decent, and it seems Nougat's is also botched. And why are there no factory images? Originally when released that was how I was going to flash my device, an image because I also do it that way, but found FlashFire and it worked fine. When a new version is released, Google usually puts up ALL images. It's just weird to release it for a device but not upload the image, am I right?
[Nexus 6P General] wilbarger:
I am also one of the lucky people. Absolutely NO issues since the update. I did go a rather extreme route when I updated. I totally wiped and factory reset my phone so I would have a clean slate to start with. Hope the issues get fixed for the many people that have problems. Meanwhile, I am enjoying a perfect phone.
[Nexus 6P General] therock3181:
Maybe most of them upgraded from a AOSP ROM and not from stock they all experience lags, etc...
[Nexus 6P General] inthedark22:
Why should that matter? I come from cm13 all runs fine but battery life is not settled yet. 4 to 6 hrs sot. It varies
[Nexus 6P General] cmo220:
I did the same thing and I'm not having any problems either.
[Nexus 6P General] raymckenz:
Yeah that's what I did. I was on a custom rom and I backed everything up did a complete wipe and flash to stock then updated to nougat and redid everything( unlock bootloader, custom recovery and root) so im having no issues
[Nexus 6P General] wilbarger:
It would be good to know if any of the people having issues did the install as we did. Maybe a pattern is beginning to show up.
[Nexus 6P General] therock3181:
It matters... Google made it for the stock OS. Not a heavily modified OS from a 3rd party. It all makes sense.
[Nexus 6P General] baconbh8:
Some yes, but I have the stock rom, locked bootloader, not rooted or anything else and I still have all of those issues
[Nexus 6P General] mattkroeder:
I'm planning to do a complete wipe and install. Just waiting on the factory images to do it. Seems like the best way to go.

[Nexus 6P General] kristiangmez:
No issues here so far either, wiped data and flashed last stock Factory image, then enrolled in beta tester program and wiped data+cache partition in stock recovery again. I also flashed Trwp and root, now runing EXkernel. I just wonder, even will i get Otas as I m still enrolled ? if so, how to flash them with custom recovery+kernel and root ? Btw, I really like N, it s so smooth !!
[Nexus 6P General] duarteslb:
Ok. I experience lags, heath and painfull scrolling. I updated from CM13. All wipes in recovery. Not a factory reset though..
[Nexus 6P General] jawonder:
Not sure how you did you update but i update from a clean install MM stock where i wiped everything and then sideload the OTA.zip in stock recovery booted up then fastboot TWRP and flash supersu . I'm not having any lags, google calendar works fine. I haven't used what's app for a while but that's it i'm not having any issues.

I also downloaded all my apps fresh from the Playstore and did them all over which wasn't easy because it was almost 100 apps but everything was freshly done . So maybe that's why i'm not having any issues.

Anyone experiencing the clock getting stuck in status bar. Mine keeps getting stuck in the status bar. But not in the lock screen. After switching off the screen and turning it back on after sometime returns the clock to current time. Bt as long as screen is on again it gets stuck.
[Nexus 6P General] mochamoo:
How did you flash N? Clean or ?
[Nexus 6P General] SirVilhelm:
Exactly what I am waiting on too. Seems to me that using the DP OTA to N seems like a great way to introduce problems as we've seen discussed here. I am just wondering what is taking Google so long to release the factory image, maybe there is still work to do?
[Nexus 6P General] artsarts:
It's interesting to see so many have problems with lag and battery problems. I'm using [MENTION=5284958]tupac4u[/MENTION] build clean install through twrp and it's extremely smooth with scrolling, app switching and just overall. The only problem I have is the occasional app crash (apps that look like there still from the Eclair days) and the first boot "cannot connect to camera." My battery life is also superior on standby however during use does seem a little worse. Other than that I would never go back to MM.

How I flashed:

1. Wiped data

2. Flashed tupac4u zip

3. Flash bootloader+radio zip

4. Wiped cache and reboot

Just got my phone from best buy 20 minutes ago and update to nougat is ready. Would y'all go ahead with the update then unlock the bootloader and root OR unlock bootloader and root without updating right away?
[Nexus 6P General] jrg67:
TL;DR - Battery life was terrible and apps misbehaving, downgraded back to 6.0.1 and waiting for factory image to be posted before attempting N again.

I was on 6.0.1 rooted with latest TWRP/SU and sideloaded the OTA but had massive battery drain and several apps that were either not working right and clearing the data fixed it or not working at all. I was getting great doze numbers but when I was actually using the phone, I could lose 5% power in 10 minutes. Also apps like gmail and others were not syncing at all in doze (not even in the supposed periodic maintenance window) so that was probably part of why I only lost 1% over 8 hours of standby. During use though, I was just watching the battery deplete as if I was trying to run a server off it just doing normal stuff. Text, web browsing, fb, instagram was really about all. However, to test doze, I charged to 100% and unplugged at 10pm, checked it at 6am and was at 99% (sweet). I didn't root N so I used factory recovery to wipe cache and also cleared app cache from the storage menu but the issues still persisted. I decided after 2 days that I had to downgrade to MM to just wait for the factory image of N but since it hasn't been posted yet, I'm really starting to think there is more work to be done as mentioned above.

Back on MM and battery is now stable again but I tried to go back dirty and that caused a bootloop. Used wug's toolkit to clean flash latest 6.0.1 with wiping everything and that fixed it however when I went to log in with my gmail, there was no record of my 6P at all so I had to set up as a new device. I never realized how much google backs up b/c I needed to set EVERYTHING up from downloading all my apps to phone permissions to wallpapers to apps settings to device settings. It took forever but I rooted again, got some of my backed up info back from just before I sideloaded the N OTA. Nearly 2 hours of SOT and I'm at 65% totally on LTE. When I was on N, I'd be at about 30-35% with 2 hours SOT in the same conditions.

You only need the platform-tools, not the studio. Link https://dl.google.com/android/installer_r24.4.1-windows.exe for windows.

Could our problems be because we are still on beta? I mean when I check the version number it gives me the same one that is on the dev site listed under the pixel c, when we check the older versions the angler and pixel numbers don't match so I would think that for the N it would also be different. Please correct me if I'm wrong
[Nexus 6P General] mochamoo:
According to the image posted this is the May security patch. My guess is that your phone has been sitting at Best Buy since at least April. You have May through August security updates to go. Might as well install it then you can join the beta program and go straight to nougat.

Then go get Wug's toolkit and unlock bootloader, root, install twrp etc. That is the easiest way unless you are already familiar with adb, fastboot..
