[MENTION=2601023]Nithin[/MENTION]:

I run my home made Nitrogen user admin build, with selinux enforcing and the ROM is working fine.

I had only 2 problems, one with webview not loading, one with voice not working on my part when calling.

Webview got solved as follows:

- If read dev/ion error for webview, add in both system/sepolicy/prebuilts/api/28/private/webview_zygote.te and system/sepolicy/private/webview_zygote.te in line 54:

allow webview_zygote ion_device:chr_file r_file_perms;

between:

# app_process zygote

dontaudit webview_zygote dex2oat_exec:file execute;

and:

# Get seapp_contexts

allow webview_zygote seapp_contexts_file:file r_file_perms;

# Check validity of SELinux context before use.

Sorry, I forgot where I found the commit, so I just pasted here the note I had made about it.

It may well be that you only need to add "allow webview_zygote ion_device:chr_file r_file_perms;" to 1 of the 2 above mentionned files but I didn't bother to investigate further:silly: ...

For voice, I had to make a init.d script as follows:

busybox chown 1013.1013 /sys/devices/c55_ctrl/gpio_ap_int/edge

busybox chown 1013.1013 /sys/devices/c55_ctrl/gpio_ap_int/value

busybox chown 1013.1013 /sys/devices/c55_ctrl/gpio_c55_int/value

busybox chown 1013.1013 /sys/devices/c55_ctrl/gpio_core/value

busybox chown 1013.1013 /sys/devices/c55_ctrl/gpio_reset/value

The kernel already does it in init.shamu.rc (1013 is media) but for some reasons it doesn't stick, my guess is that it's being done too early.

If you don't want to make an init.d script then edit init.shamu.rc so that the chown job gets executed on late start. it should work.

Apart from the build runs perfectly, and it has an excellent battery life (like more than 8 hours SOT, and only about 2% an hour when I listen to music with my headphones and with the screen off).

Note that I removed Bluetooth and NFC so I didn't test wether they work or not, and that I can't say anything about gapps since I don't use them.

One little annoyance is that smart pixels drains a bit the battery when the phone is in standby, and that even with smart pixels disabled I still have too much idle/standby battery drain (like 1 or 1.2 % an hour with all radios disabled, which is far too much compared to around 0.30% with Oreo not to mention less than 0.2% with Nougat).

So far I didn't find who the culprit is, even with most wakelocks and all alarms disabled in the Nitrogen settings, and before you ask I can tell you that Better Battery Stats didn't find anything either.

I guess I'll have to disable some stuff in SystemServer, but that's another story.

What about you guys?

How may percents an hour does your battery drain when your phone is in standby?

Thank you to all the devs that made Android P available for our Nexus 6!!!!:good:

Sorry to bother everyone again. I updated my TWRP, which let me install the OS zip and Gapps zip fine now. However, it now asks for a password upon startup. I'm guessing this is to decrypt? Though I've never encrypted it. If I enter 1234 as the password, it says the password is correct but that data is corrupt and needs a factory reset. If i do that, it just repeats this again.

---------- Post added at 02:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:40 PM ----------

Nevermind, i just saw the post about decrypting. I'll try that first.

The posted Youtube links are nonexistant in the second post.

I figured out how to decrypt from TWRP, even though I don't remember ever having encrypted the device. I had to install the zips from USB OTG drive, but it worked fine. The phone seems to be working just fine now. Thanks for the updated Android version. Last version this had was 7.1, from Nitrogen. Didn't care enough to update to 8.0. But 9 is a welcome update :)

Does mirror link work on this Rom? I tried connecting my phone to my new car stereo but couldn't get it to recognize my phone.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] deviantek:
I'm having issues with my cell reception entirely dropping out randomly. It appears to happen most often while connected to WiFi. I am on TMobile and just replaced my SIM, but still issues. The only way to fix it appears to be putting the phone on airplane mode for a few seconds and then back (which I assume retries the cellular connection).

Anyone else having this issue? I'm on the latest rom.

---------- Post added at 05:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:41 PM ----------

9.0 automatically encrypts your phone, so that would be the reason why you don't remember. I had the same issue and if I remember correctly I fixed it by wiping the partitions in TWRP (per video instructions, but granted that video had awful instructions and was entirely too long).
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Kasper DG:
That would explain why I don't remember it being encrypted. I tried watching the video, but the same thing, it was way too long and the first 15 minutes didn't even start talking about my issue. So, I dug around in TWRP instead lol. The phone isn't my daily driver, so I wasn't concerned about possibly losing anything. I already moved the stuff I wanted before doing this. But yes, inside TWRP I found how to wipe and decrypt the device. Actually though it seems to be running a little smoother now, and a little longer battery life than when it had 7.1, so there's a plus for decryption and completely wiping.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Holysmoke99:
can someone please confirm that I need a usb otg to go from Purenexus to Nitrogen OS so I can format data then install rom from otg? There is no way to flash Nitrogen OS after formatting data other than otg? David Hayes mentioned you could use a PC or usb otg but didn't have instructions to flash from PC.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] NGOwner:
OK, this is weird. I was having the same issues. I use my N6 to drive for Uber and Lyft. Side gig and all. This is also why I use Popcorn kernel because with both Uber and Lyft running, and quick charging, and Maps and Pandora, and everything else going on, the phone runs warm. And the stock kernel does not have the ability to tweak the thermal and hotplug parameters like Popcorn does.

What I found is that shortly after I decrypted and switched over to Pixel Dust, I was having issues maintaining a consistent data connection. I installed an app called Internet Connectivity Test from the Play Store to monitor the data connection. Over a four hour shift, data would drop anywhere from 8 - 20 times. The app would notice the drop long before the connection icon did. The connection icon still showed multiple bars and the LTE symbol. But no data was being passed. This has been going on for about two months in total.

Like you, an airplane mode toggle would restore it, 95% of the time. The other 5% required two toggles. I thought that the issue was with Pixel Dust, so I switched back to Nitrogen Oreo, remaining decrypted. No love. Same issue. I figured that the N6 was finally giving up the ghost. I'd run her too hot too long.

Then poof, as of this past week, I'm getting maybe one drop in a 4 hour (or longer) shift. I've done nothing on my end except update apps through the Play Store. So I'm thinking that you on TMobile and I on Sprint each have some application running that somehow freezes the data connection. Don't know how or why or which, but in my case it has almost gone away. So keep updating your apps via the Play Store and perhaps it will go away for you as well.

[Nexus 6 Android Development] hbenz2008:
D0nt need otg man. Pc will do.

After formatting, copy NOS and gapps back to the N6

Then flash away. Make sure you have latest twrp
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Holysmoke99:
that is what I thought but when I open Nexus 6 in windows explorer there is nothing at all but TWRP. So I dropped Nitrogen OS and gapps on the Nexus 6 internal storage and boot to latest twrp but there is no .img files to be found anywhere.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] hbenz2008:
You probably just wiped the N6, you need to FORMAT all including data, need to confirm action by typing yes.

Retry, you will get it.

TWRP must be the latest
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Holysmoke99:
Ok I did format and yes again for the 3rd time and just like this video shows at the 16 minute mark https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H6d-cop0olw

nothing is on Internal storage. No download folder to drop NOS and gapps onto. Where do you put NOS and gapps onto the phone if it is blank?

see attachment, all there is is a TWRP folder and nowhere to paste NOS onto phone with PC.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Holysmoke99:
damn, the latest twrp is the problem. I went back to twrp 3.2.3 and now it shows
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Holysmoke99:
I keep getting "Turn off airplane mode to make a call" when using wifi.

Airplane mode is not even on and this is happening. This happened last week on another shamu phone I had. I shattered it and got a new shamu today hoping all would be well but this is happening on both.

I have to toggle airplane mode off and back on to make a call each time.

I freaking love this rom so I hope I figure it out.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nitin.chobhe:
Are you on latest modem? Anyone else with same issue?

[Nexus 6 Android Development] psychoela:
No, this rom work great here, even i using custom kernel, edxposed n latest magisk canary:p
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Holysmoke99:
I flashed 5.51 but still get the same issue. I have had 2 shamu's that dropped cell connection and 1 shamu that didn't. All of them were wiped then flashed with NOS.

Deviantek post #11231 and GuestD0427 post #10962 report something similar.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] githyanki:
Did you update bootloader also?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Holysmoke99:
I flashed 72.04
[Nexus 6 Android Development] brandonb0013:
If you don't mind sharing, what settings are required to make the phone not become lava while multitasking?

Thanks!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] pro.aggro:
finally on pie!

BUT i lose my mobile internet. it works with flight mode on/off.

is there a zip for the newest radio?

bl ist on 72.04

i have set the colours under display to dark. the status bar is black, but the settings remain white.

somebody has an idea how to make them black?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] NGOwner:
The phone still gets warm, especially if charging at the same time. The settings simply permit the phone to run that hot without throttling the CPUs which seems to send the device into a death spiral. Lower MHz on CPUs, run hotter, lower them still, run even hotter, shut off CPU, run even hotter and now with lag, etc.

With the popcorn kernel, I've got mine set to use MakoSMP for hotplug with default settings. And IntelliThermal for the thermal profile using CPU throttle temp at 212* (if the CPU temp ever gets that high, it will start to shut down CPUs), and the Temperature Limit at 190* (if the CPU temp ever gets that high, it will start to throttle max available MHz).

Realistically it means that the CPUs never get shut down due to heat, nor is MHz throttled due to elevated temperature. All CPUs are always available at max MHz if needed. Nirvana!

My experience has been that since all cores remain online to handle the load placed on them the device behaves better (and ultimately seems to run cooler) than when the CPUs get throttled or shut off. Much better. No lag, no jitter. Night and day.

I think this is starting to happen now to me and now you and a few others where we lose connectivity. It is not always exactly the same but in some way we are losing the ability to connect to cell towers and have to toggle airplane mode to make it work again.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] ryanallaire:
I've had this issue since jumping to pie, I'm on cricket (at&t) toggling airplane mode usually fixes it...I know this has been a bug for a while..
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Holysmoke99:
Jumping to pie on what rom?

What bug do you mean? Pie has this bug or this rom?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] pro.aggro:
i don't now why, but after a few restarts it is working. no more connection terminations
[Nexus 6 Android Development] ryanallaire:
I've only used nitrogen since coming to pie, I was on nitrogen for Oreo as well.. I'm not sure if it's pie in general or the ROM or the radio or bootloader, it's gotten better for me though since pie first released..
[Nexus 6 Android Development] p5wdh:
Hi! I'm on latest rom but my phone won't go to deep sleep and it becomes hotter. What will be the problem? And also when the phone is hot, I cannot charge it to 100% only 76 sometimes 82. But when I charge with my phone off, it will charge to 100%. TIA
[Nexus 6 Android Development] keiyrno:
i think

You are right,

I should ask

Does the screen mirroring work?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Axel85:
Yes it's working both from google home and directly from the tile I tested it now . I tried on chromecast
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nitin.chobhe:
I think he is asking about WiFi display i.e. without using chromecast.

Nitin
[Nexus 6 Android Development] hbenz2008:
dude look through your apps,something is wonky.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] keiyrno:
Thanks Nithin,

Yes, that's what I meant

Because on my last try, my HH could not be detected in the Indihome max box when I tried mirroring the screen

so I returned to OREO
[Nexus 6 Android Development] aashmir:
Hi, just installed the latest ROM files on my old Nexus 6 phone today with a clean install and used the GApps arm stock download, and added the latest Magisk too. During the phone setup wizard, the stock Messages app kept crashing, but it stopped doing that after about 45 minutes. I think it may have been gotten updated. Things are going well now, except for one more failing to open Google app... the Google Photos app. Any suggestions on getting that to work?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nitin.chobhe:
Uninstall it and install from play store. It happens to me all the time with Photos app (on Pixel 2 XL) when I restore it from Titanium backup.

Nitin
[Nexus 6 Android Development] aashmir:
Just installed Titanium Backup because I think it can uninstall the Photos app from the system mount, and I noticed my root access isn't there as I was expecting. Ran root checker. Can you tell me what to do to get root working? Do I need the older version mentioned in the OP?

Install Magisk again - it is known issue that Magisk get uninstalled automatically (on most of the ROMs).

Nitin
[Nexus 6 Android Development] aashmir:
You are correct! I reinstalled Magisk and removed Root Checker and Titanium Backup from my recent apps and they were able to verify Root was working. I went into Ti Backup and uninstalled Photos after backing it up just in case. It took a reboot for it to "forget" that the app is no longer installed. The Play store was offering to Open instead of Install. After the restart, the Play store now showed Install. And, like you said, the Photos app now works again after installing it from the Play store! Thanks so much for your great help!!!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Holysmoke99:
I guess I have some problematic Shamu's. Now when I make a call the screen goes black and won't come on again until the call ends and the other party has to end the call because I am not able to since the screen is black.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nitin.chobhe:
Looks like something wrong with the proximity sensor... Definitely not from ROM side.

Nitin
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Holysmoke99:
agreed
[Nexus 6 Android Development] dahawthorne:
If you already knew that this problem isn't ROM-related and is probably a hardware fault, then why report it? A problem report on a single machine is of no value to the Shamu community in general and serves only to muddy the waters.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Holysmoke99:
I just installed Pixel Dust on the same shamu and it works great so it wasn't proximity sensor. The screen no longer goes black when making a call on Pixel Dust.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] atbandcamp:
Hello. I updated to Android P in February but I have not been able to download any of the OTA updates. I get a "download failed" message.

I downloaded the updated ROM anyway and in TWRP it fails as well. I'm not sure what to do next...
[Nexus 6 Android Development] atbandcamp:
I got it to install.

It looks like it's installing from the Nitrogen Updates folder (moved from download folder).

Now wondering if the next update will install correctly.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] hbenz2008:
Don't need to wonder man.

NOS have been out for a while now. [MENTION=5044214]nitin.chobhe[/MENTION] has been diligent in his development.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] atbandcamp:
The development is not a problem (I am using a 5 year old phone). My biggest problem is that the updates won't download but it keeps asking/telling me that an update is available but I can't update it. It even happened today after I thought/said I was up to date I don't think I am. Build number = nitrogen_shamu-9-PQ2A. 190405.003
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nitin.chobhe:
Share screenshot of your about phone which shows the build date.

And if OTA doesn't work for you, why not just download it from OP and install?

Nitin
[Nexus 6 Android Development] atbandcamp:
this is what I get. any idea what i need to do?

maybe I will/should wait until May or June and try again...
[Nexus 6 Android Development] dahawthorne:
Yes. Use some common sense and ignore it. You already have the latest version. Why are you spending energy on chasing ghosts? It simply doesn't matter.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] atbandcamp:
it's just that my phone keeps sending me the message to update, like several (6-10) times a day so it's hard to ignore. my phone's common sense is telling me i don't have the latest version and that it does matter...
[Nexus 6 Android Development] NLBeev:
I would clear caches in TWRP and hope the message is gone after reboot.

And update the radio (to 45R).

When update message persists... Wait till next update.

At last ... a clean flash.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] dahawthorne:
I've moved fo Nitin's Pixel Dust, but I reckon that NOS is probably so similar that it will also have a "check for updates" button in settings/about phone - mine has an "Automatic update interval", one of the options for which is "Disabled".
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nitin.chobhe:
It clearly shows that you are on a build from 05 April; whereas the latest build is of 09 April.

Flash the build of 09 April and you won't see that OTA notification.

Kept on switching between Lineage 16 and Nitrogen OS.

Usability and customization are much better in your build.

Being a 3-year-old device, I don't want to strain it much.

I am settling with Nitrogen OS :)

Yes, I see that. It's definitely the ROM. It can't possibly be a dying battery, right?

With respect, please don't waste our time with nonsense like this. It's disrespectful to Nitin and the rest of us who actually know something about Nexus 6 devices. It's obvious that if the phone is off then the ROM can't possibly be the reason. Can it? Eh? Common sense.
