No, the forced encryption did. And the fact that I didn't flash the vendor means it won't boot. So it's a semi-hard brick. Lol. It's been a number of hours and no one is offering anything, so I'm just going to fastboot stock I guess and see how that goes.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Kaherdin:
I believe that this device supports OTG USB-support. So, if you need files to flash you could do it that way.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Balino:
You Can flash the vendor using adb if you're encrypted. Your phone Will boot
[Nexus 6P Android Development] HikingMoose:
I had backed it up 2 days ago to my laptop, (but I did forget to mode my SMS to the PC), so I just fastbooted it and will make sure to only use unencrypted ROMs from now on. Unless it's just the kernel that makes the difference. I haven't found much info on it (I.e., people don't seem to talk about much in the forum's, even though losing all your data kinda sucks, so you'd expect a lot of discussion).

Out of curiosity though, if I did push the vendor with ADB, would it have booted and given me access to everything? Or did flashing an encrypted ROM wipe everything regardless?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Balino:
Encrypting itself doesn't wipe anything. The kernel has to disable forceencryption, flashing supersu patch the kernel aswell
[Nexus 6P Android Development] HikingMoose:
So what wiped my phone, typing "default_password"? I'd like to know where I went wrong so it doesn't happen again ha ha.

Did you mean flashing superSU patches a force encryption kernel, or is there a special superSU version that has a patch...? Searching the thread doesn't come up with any info.

I've probably been encrypted since getting the phone, but I've never had to enter a password before, (except when I first got the phone in Sept, and I chose to have a password). Obviously in this case it never booted, so I never could have enabled the password, and had no intentions of it anyhow. I remember decrypting a month or so ago, and wiped all my data to do it (planned). But this was unplanned, and nothing showed up on my phone after entering the password. Phone showed everything as empty, and the pc showed it all as empty too.

Thanks for any help or explanations you guys can give. I'll keep googling it and see if I can't find more info.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Balino:
Let me explain. SuperSU does disable force encryption when flashed. Any version of SuperSU that is designed for system-less does this. Nothing wiped your device, without entering the password all your files would not be visible, they was still there I think. Fastbooting the vendor image would have took you back to all your files I guess... Why were you running unencrypted anyway? It's useless on this device.

Flashing a ROM with force encryption enabled does not wipe anything, it just encrypt your files, and with a wrong vendor image could have caused your recovery to not load all your files. Happened to me as well on Kylo rom, even I was already encrypted
[Nexus 6P Android Development] HikingMoose:
Ok, thank you. I was likely encrypted. I've just never had a password set to boot the phone. So when I go to recovery, it just goes to recovery, like normal. It doesn't require a password. There is a default password that TWRP uses, it's "default_password", but when I type that, it says it succesfully decrypts, but it showed everything as empty. Even if if plugged into my computer, the phone storage was wiped. I don't think I lost much, because I've been getting better about backing up my phone periodically. But I just want to avoid it in the future. It sounds like if I'd flashed root, and had the right Vendor, which I forgot to flash, I would have been all set (I was actually on a M vendor fro march!). Just to be safe, I ended up flashing it with the right vendor, and used the kernel from Nitrogen and the ROM seems smooth and fast. Has nearly every feature I typically like except I can't switch the navbar buttons.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Bobbaloo:
Thanks for the education [MENTION=3750172]Balino[/MENTION] and moose, I hope you don't mind my learning from your mistakes ?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] acdcg400:
Question, does anyone find this ROM makes the phone charge slower? It's almost as if the quick charge isnt working or is slower. I flashed ElementalX thinking it might be a Kernal issue. I flashed PN and it charges as it should. Any thoughts?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] pa.pn2:
Working fine here.must be on your side
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nontheoretical:
Yes you can. It's in the System UI Tuner. Pull down the notification shade and long press the settings button to unlock it (it needs to be unlocked similar to developer settings)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jdmcivic:
[MENTION=4141782]HikingMoose[/MENTION] i had the similar experience as yours. dirty flashed as what I've been doing for many years. Flashed everything that wad required, tried booting up but i was stucked on bootloop. waited 20mins and the thing jjst won't boot. rebooted to recovery and the twrp password thing came up. that was when i realised all of my data gone. 100+gb of it.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] HikingMoose:
Luckily I had just backed up everything two days before, so I didn't lose much. But I'm assuming you were not so lucky and probably lost a lot more? It's a crappy feeling knowing you just lost stuff that you'll never get back. Often times I don't even know what I lost, until I need it later.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] 勤奋的笨小孩:
Chinese translation，please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Sheetzie03:
Nope, charges just like others and past releases. Maybe dl ampere to make sure.

---------- Post added at 02:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:34 PM ----------

I gotta give you a recommendation, ° stop dirty flashing °

Few years ago, I told myself to stop being so lazy and making a big deal out an extra however many minutes it would take me to set everything up each time I flash a new ROM. And I stopped Df completely....and it was a great decision.

You wouldn't believe the troubles iv saved from this.

I'm telling you, once you get over the fact that its going to cost you a little extra time and effort, you won't regret it.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] pa.pn2:
Theres also an helpful app called rom settings backup.

Saves a lot time after going Clean.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] threshfire:
Just wanted to clarify, does this ROM have root built in? I clean flashed to try and use Magisk with the included phh, and it said something along the lines of system installed root already.

Booting in, I saw that superuser was already installed, and then when I tried to do a full unroot it said there was an error.

I'm not sure how I've done it since, but through some process of flashing and uninstalling and reinstalling Magisk, I've got it to work. However, if I were to try and get a clean boot image, it would have the preinstalled root already.

Anyone else have this issue? 01-07-17 build. Thanks for the hard work!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jdmcivic:
it would be nice to add in "put device to sleep" by double tapping the nav bar. could save the power button..
[Nexus 6P Android Development] snak3ater:
There's no built-in root in this rom ☺️
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Balino:
No root included in the rom, there might still bè some file of supersu in the system anyway.

I was late eheh
[Nexus 6P Android Development] snak3ater:
So quiet here..

I like it ?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] ApoelEllhnwn:
Can you remove system ui from settings and add it to build tweaks?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] gavincm11:
Quiet in here means everyone is happy with your great work. Thank you so much!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Sheetzie03:
Lol why?

Sure seems like extra/unnecessary work for the Dev. Who cares where it is.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] snak3ater:
I cannot find a room for Tuner settings inside build tweaks.

Moved tuner settings to development settings a while ago. But reverted it back after getting crash reports from mako builds.

So after shifting tuner settings here and there, finally i moved it back to the original place :)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] ApoelEllhnwn:
Ok no problem them

Thank you btw for the best rom out there
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Balino:
the rom is perfect that's why it's so quiet here :p
[Nexus 6P Android Development] AspenSTi:
I wish I could think of something to suggest, but again running perfect here too. Not even sure why I check to see if new stuff is out so often...
[Nexus 6P Android Development] HikingMoose:
Are feature requests accepted with open arms, or would the person be bashed up side the head? Haha

This did run very well for the two days I tried it. Then I tried another ROM that had a feature I really love. But it has some bugs and I want to bail, and potentially fine back to this.

Let me know if I could make I've feature suggestion/request, and we could see if others would be interested too.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Thunderbolt:
Nobody did ETA question ?;)

[Nexus 6P Android Development] pa.pn2:

Anything new in da pipe snake?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Kaherdin:
M8! Do the feature request!

I for one love requests if they are well explained.

It's like the Old Days when we together made cm the forerunner of AOSP and pushed new features almost every month.

Peace
[Nexus 6P Android Development] HikingMoose:
OK, here goes.

I think adding the blur features would make this not only very fast yet functional, but also aesthetically beautiful too. I think they may be from Xperia, at least I've seen one ROM that refers to them as an Xperia geature. It allows you to blur the background of your notification panel, quick settings, recents, and sometimes works on lock screen (I presume it's always supposed to, but might have a bug). I think it's only in a couple other 6P ROMs, so it would be unique.

I am all for slim, and sleek ROMs. I don't like the ones with 1500 features when I only use 10 of them. But I love the professional, classy appearance of a blurred background with a nice bokeh (I'm a photographer, so maybe that's why, bokeh is a term for a blurred background).
[Nexus 6P Android Development] snak3ater:
Added blur few days ago. Extracted code for blurring recents app screen only.

I personally like blurred SystemUI but wasn't impressed after trying it. Phone started to lag and animations got all messed up. And to make things worse, it effected Mako too. I have to add features that works good on all devices. Didn't find it as a stable feature so reverted it.

If you look at the roms having blur patches, it has got like 100's of blur related Settings. And I'm allergic to such features that have so many Settings.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] snak3ater:
Nothing much. Adding new patches to polish rom and fixing small things here and there.

Also added a few more features
[Nexus 6P Android Development] HikingMoose:
OK, fair enough. I didn't notice any lag on the ROM I tried. It just had big data issues, that I couldn't deal with.

BTW, if I had a machine and knowledge to build my own ROMs, it would be exactly the same as this. I'm not exaggerating either. All the features I look for are here, without all the useless things like app sidebars, app circles, Omni this and app that. Lol. Just pure functionality improvements, as it should be.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Balino:
Today I had a strange bug, on two different phones, I found a call outgoing in the logs of Google phone app that I didnt do at all! Anyone else having this problem? Not saying it's a rom bug, I Just want to know if It could be related to Google apps
[Nexus 6P Android Development] fredrik74:
Clean flash, phone boots, goes through setup, but stuck on "Android is starting". Open Gapps pico. What am I doing wrong? Anyone?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] greyhd:
Try using Dynamic Gapps. I had the same issue with Open Gapps.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] fredrik74:
Thanks alot, man!! I'll try that.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Balino:
Wrong vendor Image
[Nexus 6P Android Development] HikingMoose:

[Nexus 6P Android Development] Thunderbolt:
How screenshot cropp and share should work ? Here that screenshot flying everywhere.

Try again, stop moving. Love this ROM. Unbeatable , without weak points. Is my flasholic way is over?:)

SAOSP
[Nexus 6P Android Development] snak3ater:
The crop button shows up after taking screen shot.

I was fed up with the occasional SystemUI crashes and errors while using the partial screenshot that we had in earlier builds.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Thunderbolt:
Know that. But after taking screenshot , its move all the time . Try twice. Later stop and works without problem. Thx for this outstanding ROM.

SAOSP
[Nexus 6P Android Development] snak3ater:
Also i forgot to mention that quick unlock has been removed. It wasn't safe to use that patch. Any password greater than 4 digits would've resulted in phone being unusable. quick unlock was a handy feature but better safe than having an unusable phone :)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] blavla:
I was wondering why you removed it. I read it in the change log. It's a shame cause it's very handy but I understand. Nevertheless Love your ROM have been running it now for months. Made some side steps to others but always come back. Excellent job every time
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Thunderbolt:
Snak3ater is there a lot of changes in kernel too?

SAOSP
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Pollie81:
Thanks for the new build! So far it's running fantastic!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Ovrclck:
I'm thinking of switching to this rom from stock/rooted (N4F26J). I have a few questions. I did search about Fi app fcing, is this still an issue ?

Substratum, any themes you guys recommend?

Have a nice day! :)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] MaddScientist:
Getting this issue when trying to setup google assistant on latest build. Already tried clearing app data, rebooting etc
[Nexus 6P Android Development] HikingMoose:
That is unfortunate. I wonder if the patch could be patched to only allow 4 digit pins. Or if the original patch coding will get fixed. The issue has been around since implementation on nougat. As far as I know it worked fine on LP and MM.

I've used it for so long that now when I don't have it, I end up entering my pin, and sitting there waiting for the phone to unlock, then I remember I have to hit enter [emoji12]
[Nexus 6P Android Development] musashiken:
Well, I have learnt to accept this ever since the dev of Pure Nexus dropped quick unlock for pin. So I switched to pattern unlock, since it is quicker than pin unlock now.

I also switched to this rom because I feel it's closer to stock than PN. Good job OP.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] snak3ater:
No kernel changes.

I use stock prebuilt kernel ☺️
[Nexus 6P Android Development] MikeC4510:
Have you thought about adding in double tap to sleep on the nav bar/status bar? Funny enough, that's the one feature my gf needs because tiny hands ?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] snak3ater:
Not using fingerprint reader?

It's the fastest way of unlocking your phone.

Anyways it was patched up in Nougat but that patch wasn't enough to fully fix it.

I personally got my phone locked up when needed to use phone in emergency. Not cool at all. That patch isn't safe and no one has to suffer because of that. I liked the feature but have to let it go ☺️
[Nexus 6P Android Development] snak3ater:
Working fine here. Cleared up data and did setup Assistant again. Still working fine.

What gapps are you using?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] AjaySp:
Does anybody had the ok google working form lock screen ?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] HikingMoose:
Is there a sound toggle, one I can just click to put it in vibrate mode, then click again to return to my normal volumes? I just see the do not disturb tile.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] snak3ater:
Double tap to sleep on statusbar is already there
[Nexus 6P Android Development] snak3ater:
Sound toggle isn't there.

Try native custom tiles instead.

Hey guys......

i installed ElementalX 4.04 on this rom and got into a lovely bootloop

any help?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] drmidoo:
i think ElementalX has a problem with supersu, you have to flash it and supersu in specific order or reboot after each flash something like that, you can find this issue solved on ElementalX thread by searching, it's not rom related it's the kernel itself.

How to get pokemon run in this rom?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] snak3ater:
Are you running custom kernel?

So is it mean custom kernel will not work?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] snak3ater:
No. I was just brainstorming.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] chaostan:
Sorry so how to get it work? Installed Magisk10.2 and flash PHH superuser266-2 and still cant run pokemon
[Nexus 6P Android Development] patriiice:
I'm not pokemon user but I read that it's not working on rooted devices, you have to temporary unroot to make it work..
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Chochiwpg:
If you flash magisk it will root your phone. After you install magisk manager from the Play store you have to go to settings, enable magisk hide, then go into magisk hide, select the app's you want to hide root access from and reboot.

Pokemon Go should work, Android Pay etc
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jdmcivic:
latest update broke the safetynet test. was working fine on previous update..
[Nexus 6P Android Development] chaostan:
Activate the magisk hide but somehow can't find pokemon app from there.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Chochiwpg:
That is odd, maybe uninstall the app, reinstall and then see if it shows up in the list.

What is different in this ROM with root prior to flashing SuperSU in recovery, then Benzo?

Thanks, look same to me.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] HikingMoose:
I agree. I used to be a huge kernel wh*&$. Until I used stock kernels a few times and had better results than the custom kernels. Now I always give stock a fair shake before going custom. Plus, I haven't really found a custom one I like anyway.

But if you wipe everything and convert to f2fs and saosp is the first rom you flash, it won't work..

[MENTION=4770534]snak3ater[/MENTION] How hard is it to make a rom f2fs compatible and are you willing to do that?

Wysłane z mojego Nexus 6P przy użyciu Tapatalka
[Nexus 6P Android Development] snak3ater:
I'm not sure about that. Always tried to stay away from F2FS since it's trouble. I've read many complaints in other rom threads regarding F2FS. It's better that we stick with current setup
[Nexus 6P Android Development] htb2050:
Totally. I convert a month back and my pictures weren't saving correctly even on custom kernels. Switched back to ext4 in a few hours. F2fs didnt make any difference in speed.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] HikingMoose:
I concur. And I'll add that it's also typically ( 70% or more users) say there's no noticable performance gain. Only a small percentage of people claim to notice a difference. I haven't tried it on this phone, but have in the past, and didn't notice anything.

Suhide
