OK Google

I am still having issues with recording my voice for the Google Assistant. I keep getting the message that there are sounds at the end of the recording, and to try again. Everything else other than the very occasional reboot is working as expected. I tried the latest build 1201 with latest nano gapps and still the same issue. I have wiped the phone completely, and install Pure Nexus, the latest version, with mini BeansApps and it is working. I have disabled the touch sounds in Nitrogen and have gone so far as to disable all vibration and sounds. If anyone could provide assistance it would be appreciated. Other than that issue the ROM works very well.

Thanks.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] aerohp:
I don't believe the Google Assistant from screen off feature works on any of the N6 Oreo roms. The assistant will still pickup the voice once it's opened manually but no "ok Google" hotword detection.

(Edited)

I guess ok google doesn't work with screen off but may work with screen on
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
Google Assistant does work from any screen on some ROMs. It doesn't work with the screen off however.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] cmh714:
Had the same, took me a buncj of tries at deleting cache and app data for the Google App....did that, then rebooted to TWRP and wiped cache/davlik rebooted and was finally able to get it to recognize my voice. YMMV, GL
[Nexus 6 Android Development] danber76:
Try Elemental X kernel, this helped me (I hope). No random reboots in the last 48 hours.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] mohdschizo:
Yup true. Im using it with both selinux permissive or enforcing. No random reboot so far. Still standing.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] monteie2016:
Doing this has allowed me to record the 'OK Google' phrase the three times needed. So that is a step in the right direction. What I am seeing now is, the phone won't respond to me when I say 'OK Google'.... Lol... baby steps. Great suggestion.

Thanks

:good:

---------- Post added at 08:00 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:50 AM ----------

I can't find a version of ElementalX for Oreo. I can only find version N.4.27 which has downloads for Nougat and Marshmallow. Does this work for Oreo?

Thanks

:good:
[Nexus 6 Android Development] mohdschizo:
Download the kernel via it apps - EX Kernel Manager. The kernel version is 5.00 and i prefer to flash it manually.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] ReneZeiss:
Thanks for the EXKM suggestion.

Today it was a good day to do experiments with this rom on the N6.

I flashed a twrp f2fs Recovery and tried to install it.

Tried several times....but wait forever.

Now I realise that the rom does not support f2fs.

I went back to ext4.

Very funny :)

I really love this rom and thanks to the devs.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] danber76:
Use EX Kernel Manager, it provides the oreo kernel.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Dixon Butz:
FYI

TWRP 3.2.1-0 Released

* minui fixes (cryptomilk)

* Better android-8.0 compatibility in ROM trees (Dees_Troy)

* Fix missing library in android-8.0 (nkk71)

* Fix inconsistent SDCard naming (DevUt)

* Default to TWRP restore instead of adb backup restore to fix restore on fresh TWRP boot (jlask)
[Nexus 6 Android Development] jason605:
went back to crdroid. This rom is great but my phone would reboot to much and in bluetooth I always has to go into setting to link headset. Will come back im sure.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] monteie2016:
Thanks for the tip... It worked. I was able to download and install manually. Question though.... There was no options to configure settings during the TWRP install. When I booted into the OS I couldn't pick a clock speed greater than 2649 using the ElementalX Kernel Manager. In previous version I used I was able to overclock successfully to something like 2880. Is this how it is now or is there something I missed?

Thanks.

:good:
[Nexus 6 Android Development] ozzmanj1:
Just an fyi. I made a backup. Then flashed this latest twrp. Lost my cellular data. WiFi only worked. Even reflashing previous twrp didn't fix it. Had to do a full nandroid restore. Just a heads up in case anyone else has the same issue
[Nexus 6 Android Development] OneArm:
Bluetooth Audio Drops

Using the latest Nitrogen(Dec 1 2017 Build) My nex6 has an odd issue on Bluetooth. It connects to my Bluetooth headphones and plays normally. However when I connect to my car radio via Bluetooth, audio continuously skips. Not fast forwarding but just drops out for a second every 3 or 4 seconds. This has only started on this ROM and a search of this thread, I've been unable to find a similar issue. Any thoughts?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] ReneZeiss:
For those who are interested to install Magisk. I made the following setup to make Magisk pass CTS Profile and Basic Integrity TRUE.

Fresh install. Format Data, incl. Wipe System, (data) and Cache.

ADB push this OS and Gapps.

Installed Magisk 14.5.

Both Safetynet checks were Fail.

Installed EXKM app and downloaded ElementalX 5.00.

Magisk showed Basic Integrity True, CTS fail.

Installed Magisk Universal Safety net fix v2 beta 5 https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=73432221&postcount=1075

Both checks TRUE now.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] _P__:
Reboots when it gets stuck from me scrolling
[Nexus 6 Android Development] rfactor117:
Both my checks are also true.

Not sure why you would suggest elemental x kernel when the stock kernel works fine.

Not sure why y'all don't just make it simple flash magisk.Zip 14.5 and safetynet.Zip fix after rom and Gapps install, works for me every time.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] ozzmanj1:
That is what I do. Fresh install and then flash the safety net fix and magisk. No issues here with passing safetynet. Although I do get random reboots. Anywhere from 6-10 a day
[Nexus 6 Android Development] ReneZeiss:
I flashed it because in my previous install it could not pass both checks, only Basic Integrity.

Next time, with a future rom update, I flash it the way you describe!

Thanks!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] rfactor117:
Awesome good to hear ?

I Always let the phone boot after clean installing OS and Gapps... Then back to TWRP and then swipe to wipe then one step at a time, out of 7 shamu's I only seen 1 random reboot on Nitrogen 1201.

https://xdaforums.com/nexus-6/devel...n-substratum-11-10-2016-t3478365/post74782854

Hope this helps ?

I have sometimes had to flash Magisk and safetynet a couple times.

VOLTE?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] rfactor117:
Hope this helps ?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] jayadev01:
Nope, shamu doesn't support VoLTE for Indian Bands. I huess you live in India. If yes, then there's no VoLTE as in India, there is band 40 but shamu supports band 41 but not 40. So no jio or any other VoLTE service will work in India.

Cheers!!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nitin.chobhe:
So guys, I hope all the random reboots are fixed with 8.1 ;)

Will be out soon :good:

Nitin
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Dixon Butz:
I tried 3 Oreo ROMs. 2 were laggy and made the Shamu seem slow. Even with no apps installed.

This Nitrogen ROM runs great on a spare Nexus 6.

The only issue I had is getting Google Assistant to respond to voice. I was able to train GA after turning off "Touch Sounds". But when I say "Okay Google", it never responds.

I tried deleting the Google data and cache. Then wiping cache in TWRP. Retrain voice and still won't respond. Any hints how to get it to respond?

I have not had any reboots yet. But I don't use it much. I have to have GA.

My flashing order:

Nitrogen

Nano Gapps

Magisk

Boot

Restore apps and data with Titanium Backup.

Great ROM!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nitin.chobhe:
So here is the

alpha build

of Nitrogen OS (android 8.1): https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=962021903579498023

Clean flash is required.

Flashing instructions

:

1. Boot to TWRP and wipe everything except internal storage (do this by selecting each partition and NOT factory reset)

2. Flash ROM Zip

3. Flash 8.1 arm gapps (get them from AFH or from anywhere on internet)

4. Flash Magisk 14.5 if you want root

5. Enjoy and do not forget to share your feedback.

Notes:

1. I know NFC doesn't work yet, and it'll be fixed when I get a solution for that

2. Do not turn on Always on under Display -> Ambient Display; it creates issues while unlocking

3. I do not know how the build behaves on encrypted phones; so if your phone is encrypted flash it on your own risk.

Theme used in the screenshots is Dark Material

Thanks [MENTION=5143811]eocobby721[/MENTION] as always for testing the ROM :good:

Thanks!

Thanks for your awesome work. Not complaining, just feedback what I experienced, I installed 8.1 But with 'always on' screen active, I couldn't turn the lockscreen back on. Screen turns completely off with double tap but nothing happens when I hit the power button. I had to press the power button 3,4 times to get the lockscreen on.

I even wiped all and flashed it again. Still the same issue.

[Nexus 6 Android Development] jayadev01:
Did you guys read the release post for this version few pages back? Nitin has already mentioned not to turn on Always on Display feature as it's still buggy and that it will cause lockscreen issues. You have already clean flashed many times hoping to solve this issue which might have taken lot of your free time unnecessarily. So please don't mess with that feature as of now. It will be fixed in the future releases. No personal offence, but it's always a good habit to read the posts of the developers regarding their releases. Enjoy this wonderful rom.
