Battery Draining

Hi Nitrogen OS Team,

First of thank you very much for Very stable ROM.

It is very very stable.

I am using it since last week, I am very much impressed with the ROM.

I observe one think that my phone Battery is draining very fast.

Did any one else observe that looking forward to hearing on this.

Once again thanks for Very Stable ROM>

Thanks

ASDHANGAR
[Nexus 6 Android Development] The Doctor04:
You have something running in the background, a crazy app, or some mod you installed causing the battery drain. Pages and pages and pages of users getting 3-5 SOT and 24hrs+ of battery life and that is me being conservative. This OS is well know for it's sick battery life
[Nexus 6 Android Development] aankkurr:
This is not an issue with majority of people, only some of them having this issue.

Keep using few days and things should get better.

One thing you can do is, go to

Settings > Apps & notifications > See all apps > Click 3 dots on top right side and click "Show system" > Scroll down and select "Google Play services" > Storage > CLEAR CACHE > MANAGE SPACE > CLEAR ALL DATA > Reboot

And you can also boot into TWRP and wipe cache + dalvik

Soft resets

Hi All,

I know that people whining about their phone doing a soft reset is irritating to you guys, but bear with me

My phone used to do soft resets once in a while. I read here that by flashing the Gapps Pico (in contrast with Gapps Stock) the soft resets will go away.

So, three days ago I flashed the latest Rom and Gapps pico (By following the instruction in OP and not a dirty flash).

But unfortunately, every day around 3 pm my phone does a soft reset. It's not a big deal but I'm very curious to know why this happens and why at this time?

So, Is there a way to enable debug logs and save them on the phone and review them later to see what happened at that moment that caused the reset?

Thank you very much.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] TAGTRAUM:
I installed GAPPS nano and haven't any reboots, maybe you can try it and disable unnecessary apps like Google app etc.? Or you like to see that soft reboot tortures every day?:cyclops:
[Nexus 6 Android Development] H4X0R46:
Why does screen of torch only work for me on Nitrogen? Doesn't work for me reliably on any other rom. Did you implement it differently? I'm genuinely curious! Nitrogen has become my go to for this small reason alone! Not to mention other things, I really appreciate your work! But yeah, is it implemented differently?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nitin.chobhe:
I didn't do anything special (at least in device related trees); but there might be commit in the ROM by our developer xyyx :)

[Nexus 6 Android Development] asdhangar:
Hi The Doctor04,

Thanks for your reply.

If know OS ROM has problem with Battery life, why can not team making it's build will address it & make more better ROM.

I am not in Android development space.

Thanks

Hi Aankkurr,

Thanks for your response.

I have done the needful.

Let me observe it for 1-2 days. I will share my findings with you.

Thanks

Lost in translation. When he says: "sick" battery life, I think he means "great".
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nitin.chobhe:
I think you didn't understand what [MENTION=4800984]The Doctor04[/MENTION] wanted to say.

Nitin
[Nexus 6 Android Development] lepi:
The ROM really have great "sick" battery life, just wonder which sound mode will work, because what I try so far always break the sound. If possible with link.

Thank to the developers!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Andyland:
Does anyone use Android Auto with this ROM? I am unable to connect to mine and I'm just wondering if there is anything I can do to get it working.

---------- Post added at 04:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:48 PM ----------

Nevermind figured it out, had to turn off MTP instead Charging in the Miscellaneous settings and now it's working perfect!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nitin.chobhe:
Yes, that's what is needed.

Glad that you found that out :good:

[Nexus 6 Android Development] ozzmanj1:
Hey Nitin, just curious. I am still undecided if I'm going to replace my Nexus 6 this year. But am strongly considering either the OnePlus 5t, 6 or 6t as a possible replacement, again if I even decide to replace it. Curious if you have plans to support these device(s) with Nitro rom? Been rocking this room for 18 months and love it.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] hameedf:
I think there is something special in this rom:highfive: there is very good work by many developers but this is my main rom. Thanks nitin
[Nexus 6 Android Development] gothy.gothy:
It's very funny how you're writing in every ROM's thread that the ROM from that thread is the best for you :)) Good tactic!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] hameedf:
Yes I appreciate all work from any developer and I tested all most roms, so this is my backup rom and I was on aosip for a long time and i liked it very much, also x rom for neo, beltz, aosp extended, everyone of these had different features, that's what I meant.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] piperthedj:
When making/receiving calls through device no issues hearing or being heard.

When making/receiving calls through BT there is the occasional time where the other party can not hear me. Experience both on carrier and GV number, with different BT sets.

Have not been able to determine a pattern. As it looks like its limited to BT technology, could it be somewhere in the BT programming?

just a thought,

Cheers,
[Nexus 6 Android Development] piperthedj:
Through my usage with this ROM, I am noticing random loss of BT parity. I have two headsets I use and a keyboard. On occasion a headset will still be in the paired devices, but when I turn it on will not Auto pair. When I select the device in Bluetooth settings it will request to pair as if it is a new device. Can this spontaneous Bluetooth issue be related to the calling issue I tested earlier?

Cheers,
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nitin.chobhe:
No, I do not have plans to support OnePlus devices. Our man [MENTION=5422618]xyyx[/MENTION] owns OP3 and he maintains it for that device. So I think someone can easily bring up Nitrogen for other OP devices.

Yes, these 2 things can be very much linked to each other. Having said that, in my experience BT/ NFC connections are in general not as reliable as WiFi. So can't really comment as to why is that happening with your BT devices.

Does anyone know how to fix "battery usage data is not available" on the battery stats screen? I've tried wiping the cache partition and the bootloader logs but neither fixed the problem.

Every day a crash...

Bluetooth and watch/carkit wont work well.

Are there maybe a few different bluetooth chipsets in use at the shamu?

Strange that some have troubles with it and others don't.

Here a screenshot from bootlog.

Before I had some issues but the last builds it's hapend far more often.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] hbenz2008:
Clean installed?

Bt headset and watch constantly connected, no problem.

Using ex kernel mgr, nothing but interactive cpu and double tap to wake.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] blkdmn247:
For some odd reason, by earpiece stopped working. I can't hear the person calling me but they can hear me just fine. I did a clean flash but that didn't help. I'm currently using a bluetooth headset for the time being. Also, my wife phone is experiencing the same issue as well and she's using the 3/17 build.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] H4X0R46:
Hey Nitin. Off the wall question entirely, but is there any chance if Liquid Dark making a comeback? Are you the main Dev or were you a maintainer? ?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nitin.chobhe:
That's strange. Flash any other Oreo ROM and see if it works.

I was a maintainer. I don't think it'll make a come back :(

Nitin
[Nexus 6 Android Development] H4X0R46:
Shoot. Well I actually extracted the system sounds from the last build and I use root to add them to all my roms still! [emoji41]
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nitin.chobhe:
Here is the new build...

Major changes:

- Added pocket mode :good:

I've added commits linked by [MENTION=3383960]Elektroschmock[/MENTION] (in this post) in this build. Flash and report back on reboots.

Nitin
[Nexus 6 Android Development] genti.b:
Great, I was wondering if this was pushed to NOS. Will report back after flashing.

Good job man :good:
[Nexus 6 Android Development] KWhitted00:
I don't post usually but I have been keeping watch on the thread;) I had the reboot issue and at first I thought it was tasker related but then i noticed it happened when you toggled GPS. I can confirm that the commits you added fixed that issue thanks;D

[Nexus 6 Android Development] chris8cec:
Well it was just a question, it was just nice!!! But everything else works perfect thanks for the rom!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nitin.chobhe:
I can add it in next build.

And now... I can confirm, no more stupid GPS reboots (pardon the language). It was getting really annoying. Cheers

Nitin
[Nexus 6 Android Development] mingaldrichgan:
Thanks! Also, is status bar notification ticker something you might consider adding to this ROM? I saw that the following pull request was shot down: https://github.com/nitrogen-project/android_frameworks_base/pull/62 :(

I just came back to Nitrogen after having tried a much earlier version some time ago, and love how far it's come. Status bar notification ticker is the only feature I depend on that's currently missing. Thank you (and all the developers) for the great work!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nitin.chobhe:
I don't see that getting added. You have seen the comment on the pull request :)

Nitin
[Nexus 6 Android Development] mingaldrichgan:
Pity. Thanks! I wasn't sure if he just meant the implementation was old and had to be updated, or if he was rejecting the feature itself.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] sandnap:
I have had the daily reboot issue with the last few builds. I clean flashed the new version with the latest open gapps nano build earlier and so far everything is smooth. I'll report back after 24 hours.

Thanks for the awesome rom Nitin and dev team!

Update: Well over 24 hours and no reboots!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Andyland:
Quick question and I appoligise if it's been asked before or common knowledge. When I flash this update with TWRP, will I need to wipe everything and reinstall Gapps if I'm currently running the same rom version 2018-4-3?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] rfactor117:
Nope, just dirty flash then wipe dalvik and cache before boot, also ensure your TWRP Is updated
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Andyland:
Thanks brother!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] aankkurr:
Dirty Flash working. I had,

TWRP 3.2.1.0 + NOS 0403 + Magisk 16

Boot into TWRP

1. Wipe Dalvik / ART Cache + Cache

2. Flash latest NitrogenOS

3. Magisk got flashed automatically

4. Wipe Dalvik / ART Cache + Cache

5. Reboot
[Nexus 6 Android Development] rfactor117:
No problem at all happy to help
[Nexus 6 Android Development] pillo85:
Coming from MM just need to clean flash ROM and Gapps? Or do I need to fastboot N bootloader?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] coremania:
Singularity does a fine job, can't find any issues to inbuilt kernel. It's snappy
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Berlino:
I'm running NitrogenOS with Flash Kernel...great combination! :good:

Substratum is working fine with Magpie...no problems at all. Maybe restart SystemUI or perform a reboot could help.

Spoiler content hidden.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] jlokos:
I'm using despair factor and its working great..
[Nexus 6 Android Development] wase4711:
running elite kernel, runs great as well..

Spectrum OMS theme works perfectly too..
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Root Wizard:
I was scrolling through forums and I almost read the title as XOSP. Haha cant wait to flash this baby.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] coremania:
You got a link to this kernel?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] jlokos:
Great rom. Thanks for all of the features. I had some issues with the recommended superuser. It seemed to be working fine and then I booted into recovery to flash some zips. When I rebooted, I lost root. I went back to recovery and tried flashing the recommended superuser again, but no luck. I then flashed SuperSU 278 SR1. I re-acquired root and have had no issues since.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Berlino:
Here you go...:)
[Nexus 6 Android Development] jcrompton:
This post would probably be much better with logs but it's mainly for just reporting purposes:

The ROM for sure it the most complete N ROM available currently. Awesome. :good:

Had a couple of issues

A couple of fairly common themes caused some weird issues - Divinity (after theming Contacts I was not able to add a contact from a new number after getting a text forma new person)

Lagginess in a couple of situations, like when choosing some dialogs within apps (in this case the use of the camera within the Chase banking app) (and a few others)

I have some ideas about the lagginess...

Maybe kernel

Maybe the superuser root (I'm using the superuser version with hide and there have been some reports of lag with that)

Maybe the slightly different theming of the dialogs to accept questions within an app used with this ROM -- like when it asks you to accept particular permissions, etc -- the dialog is big and elongated --- it's at that step that there is sometimes a bit of a lag)

Hopefully this helps ...... no complaints at all

Absolutely Incredible ROM, love it, great work men.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] jcrompton:
Unlike my post where I explained that I was not complaining but trying to be helpful to improve on a good (but not perfect) ROM ... your post is useless
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Lawlrus:
Themes are not a ROM issue, it has the oms commits, its either the themes you're using, or lack of theme ready gapps.

I've not noticed any lag whatsoever, and i don't have any issue with an elongated permissions box, I did have that on pure nexus when I used open gapps instead of the gapps bean made.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] abalam:
Always what I do no theme pffff wtf.... Testing beltz etc... Reinstall substratium, nothing. Never see this hapend.....
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Lawlrus:
Gotta be on your end, I just switched my theme to beltz and its working fine
[Nexus 6 Android Development] abalam:
Found the problem. Think kernel related. I use ElementalX. Reinstall the rom for original kernel and substratum make the theme now!!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] :
This ROM is absolutely incredible with flash kernel!!! Great job!!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] jcrompton:
Ok just experienced the weirdest thing ... I first tried to manually install Google Now because I didn't have Google Voice Typing as an input option. Every time I would reboot the successful installation just disappeared. So I tried a clean flash and using a Gapps that has Google Now as part of the gapps .... didn't install Google Now (or Google voice typing)

Again tried manual install of Google Now -- success and now have Google voice typing. Reboot ... gone again

Anybody have an idea of what's going on?

EDIT FOUND THE PROBLEM AFTER THIRD CLEAN FLASH ---- I was choosing "Google App" in the Google Theme Ready App installer and that was somehow messing things up

Bottom Line -- don't choose Google App for the Theme ready Install
[Nexus 6 Android Development] :
Can't seem to get the battery or notification lights to work. Is it a widespread issue, or is it just me.... That's the only issue I'm having, and its a very small issue that I can live with..once again great job on this ROM!!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] udis:
Great rom! Just flashed the 10.27 version loving it! I noticed when you lose signal is when you get the ui crashed black screen issue. Was riding the path in the morning and right now and noticed when we went under ground where the signal normally cuts out it happened both times I rebooted this morning, right now I let it ride and when the signal came back the phone let the screen come back on. Pandora buffered enough to keep playing the entire time but the screen wouldn't turn on till cell signal came back

Install the app and select the default. AOSP dialer can be disabled.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] falle.son85:
I'm still getting the random System UI crashes. I've made sure that everything has the permissions it's suppose to have. This rom is great, but this is a real annoyance.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] biggiesmalls657:

EDIT: I have resolved the Google assistant OK Google anywhere issue that i was having. Someone in another thread gave a guide on how to get it to work and it worked for me.

I have tried that fix from a clean install. When I set ro.opa.eligible to false and reboot, I lose Google assistant and OK Google still doesn't work. When I reset ro.opa.eligible back to true, Google assistant comes back and turning on OK Google anywhere still won't work. But if I start the assistant from long pressing home, and say OK Google, the voice recognition trainer starts and I can set it up but it doesn't stick. Everytime I start Google assistant from long pressing home and I say OK Google, I have to retrain it but it never actually sticks or works. Any one have any ideas on a possible fix?

It is missing. This is a custom nav bar. When you enable multi window it breaks the system UI. I'd prefer AOSP instead of this custom one.

no center clock right ? :crying:
[Nexus 6 Android Development] mirekyiv:
Nope:(
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Danny 0311:
I think it may be a trade off. I too, miss a centre clock, but I'd rather have a blinking led light. Having both would be ideal, but I'm not going to push it.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] skj8100:
Latest xposed with gravity box DOES work. With that you can center clock. I had no idea not having center clock was an issue with blinking led.

I for one would trade blinking all day everyday and twice on Sunday for center clock;)
[Nexus 6 Android Development] ECrispy:
So EX Kernel is now built into this rom, or does the screenshot above mean its compatible?

What I'm planning -

1. full wipe (incl data partition) in TWRP

2. flash rom

3. flash open gapps nano

4. flash latest magisk

5. flash latest ex kernel

so #5 isn't needed now? and from post (https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=76243091&postcount=7981) above it says Magisk is flashed, thats because he did dirty flash?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] skj8100:
Answer to both questions is yes. Ex is built in. No need for magisk if already rooted with it and you dirty flash.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Danny 0311:
I hear you. I do prefer a working led light, but that centre clock filled in that empty space very nicely. I just thought that it looked more "complete".:p
[Nexus 6 Android Development] skj8100:
