So, this version of Nitrogen OS doesn't come pre-installed with Elemental kernel? If it does, then i don't think there should be any problem with me posting about the issues here since it's the part of this ROM. Plus, I downloaded the thing from here so if I'm having any trouble, I'm certainly going to post it here, not in some other thread. I don't even know what has happened to xda community anymore, post about your issues & then get replies that has nothing to do with your concerns. The only files that I flashed during installation were the GApps, The ROM & Magisk, if that's not "stock" enough for you, then I don't know what else is. Quite amazing job with the ROM & kudos to the devs but unfortunately I have to move to something else because of poor community support.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nitin.chobhe:
No, the ROM doesn't come with Elemental Ex kernel. I do not know from where did you come to that conclusion. The kernel source link is in OP if you are interested to have a look at it.

"unfortunately I have to move to something else because of poor community support" -> Good luck!

Because I read this back in the Oreo days & it seems like that it had the Elemental kernel built in based upon this reply that is posted, hence I asked that if the current version, i.e. Nitrogen OS Pie comes with the kernel pre-installed or not. Now you know why I came to that conclusion.

I'm using this rom for a month apox. and just figured that my sensors are not working when using programs to level my table.

This might be a problem on my side but i still wonder if it is only me? (GPS is working)but magnetic field sensor and some other does not seems to be working.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] runekock:
I've tested with SensorLab app. All sensors work fine. I wonder if the app you are using is the problem.

Also, see if a reboot helps.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Markeee:
I installed it just to check it out works for me then I uninstalled it

My question is what practical use does that app actually have for normal everyday use ?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] ExpertMC:
I also noticed the last few releases have laggy scrolling, even in simple app opening animations and home screen scrolling. If it helps to diagnose the problem, everything becomes very smooth with the option 'Disable HW overlays' in developer options that always uses the GPU. The GPU not being used might be what is causing the frame drops everywhere.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] dahawthorne:
No. I can scroll 100+ contacts and dozens of Gmail emails in a single swipe. No stutter or pause.

I do wish that people wouldn't assume that a small flaw on their own device is the fault of the ROM. It's just pointless and disrespectful. Once again a user complaining after misunderstood tweaking.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nitin.chobhe:
add to that - it makes other / new users think that its ROM fault and creates unnecessary discussions in the threads :(

WiFi telephoning and some other future build options

Hi-is there a way to use WiFi for telephoning? Searching around says it should/can be an option in Settings/Network and Internet - but I cannot find it, even digging down deep in advanced settings in several subareas there.

Anyone able to activate & use this?

If not, it would be great to get this (and the randomized MAC address (uneasy about trying compile edits), and screen brightness slider bar on top of status window) in some future build. Otherwise solid as a rock. Thx.

Does the 9.0 rom work with Fi, esp wifi calling? I'm using Nitrogen from a few months ago but am suddenly seeing a lot of battery drain, I am at a loss why and don't mind doing a fresh install and hope it fixes it. Does the new version ahve good battery life too?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] githyanki:
No Fi support.

Good battery life though.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] ECrispy:
Well that means I can't use it, too bad. Will wait for more updates. This applies to all 9.0 roms I'm guessing ?

What a tease Nitin. :) Waiting around all day for the update.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Videoword:
This ROM works very, very well. Thanks Nitin.

But... Is anyone else having issues with MMS sending and receiving? As well as iPhone users thinking you're trying to 'Facetime' them? I was on ABC Oreo before switching here and didn't have this particular issue. Been trying to mess with my APN settings but they are all greyed out - and none match what the supposed current Verizon settings are (apparently?) meant to look like:

Name: Verizon

APN: vzwinternet

MMSC: http://mms.vtext.com/servlets/mms

MMS port: 80

APN type: default,supl,mms

APN Protocol: IPv4

Is there a way to put the clock back on the right side?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] geekboy1011:
I was actually debating on posting this my self. I've had nothing but issues with mms on this ROM other then that it's great! There is an apn list update coming in the next release according to GitHub hopefully it will see a fix for us.

I also want to add in I've been having lots of connectivity issues phone randomly saying no Sim card not receiving calls ect. Would that be modem or rom related?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] deadcatsrule:
It's related to all pie ROMs for Shamu,not just this ROM,it is very difficult to get the Newest versions of Android to work on a 4 year old phone,the devs are doing the best they can at this point.just be glad someone out there is even still trying
[Nexus 6 Android Development] razanahi:

Absolutely, and I'm very grateful! Hope that comes through in my messages. Just didn't know if it was limited to my phone or if there was a setting I missed or if this was in anyone's radar. If it's a known issue and people are working on it, I won't bring it up again.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Dhalsim43:
I've decrypted the phone but still have some soft reboots...
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nitin.chobhe:
Can you reproduce the reboots on a clean flash of ROM and gapps (and nothing else)??

Nitin
[Nexus 6 Android Development] JGradyO:
I can't speak for everyone, but this ROM makes me happy (and nothing else).

I love adaptive spell checkers.

?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Dhalsim43:
I've already formated and clean flashed. I've no custom kernel, no root, no tweaks...

I use it as a daily driver. appart from one or maximum two soft reboots, it works very well.

I'm not blaming anyone, just reporting.

I had a few times the message "Bluetooth keeps crashing" so it might be related to Bluetooth... (always on for me) but it's just a hypothesis.

Soft reboots occurs on idling most of the time but I also occurred while using it.

I will see how the November build works... ?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nitin.chobhe:
lol... corrected now ;)

Did you try and see what happens if you turn off the bluetooth?

Nitin
[Nexus 6 Android Development] kajiggaa:
I use Bluetooth daily with no issues what so ever. I do also get soft reboots though not a big issue. I love this ROM
[Nexus 6 Android Development] magnamentis:
perhaps a bit of additional input to further help narrow things down and of course i can speak only for my setup:

a) the device reboots very very rarely in intervals of 1-2 days, in my case after idling for a long time ( more than an hour or even more)

b) this makes any reproduction with naked rom install and switching off features very difficult, matter of factly one would have to decommission the device for testing purposes to see how things go with the naked rom (due to long interval)

c) i tried several kernels and several setups with those but nothing extreme, no changes, perhaps the intervals were slightly shorter or longer

but again, due to long intervalls it's hard to tell.

d) i tried to take a log of the crash but was not able to fetch it for the past, ony for the current boot cycle, no clue, perhaps a twrp issue.

i'm totally fine with how things currently are but of coure if the culprit can be found and dealt with that would be even better, i'm looking forward to the next monthly update to see how things go with it.

last but not least my bluetooth is on all the time as well but as mentioned i need it daily several hours, hence can't switch it of for the entire period between two reboots without decommissioning the device but since it's the only one with 16:9 ratio i need it desperately, >18:9 does not go well with certain use cases like navigation, width on a 6.4" screen is the same like my old 5.5" devices (or hight in landscape, even worse)
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nitin.chobhe:
This is already done by [MENTION=4980030]rfactor117[/MENTION] and he didn't get any reboots.

[Nexus 6 Android Development] Dixon Butz:
I asked not too long ago here if anyone had problems sending MMS with this ROM. No bites.

Never could send a MMS with any Pie ROM. I hate Pie anyway. Google destroyed the volume controls!

My carrier is Tello which uses Sprint.

Some Oreo ROMs couldn't send either. Omni ROM posted here is fast at MMS!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] deadcatsrule:
Mmmmm no Omni ROM posted here since this is the Nitrogen thread, but have fun anyway
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Cancambo:
I read about 10 pages back, and forgive me if I missed something, but has anyone noticed incoming calls not working? I can make outgoing calls, I can send text messages, I get voicemail, but ultimately incoming calls don't show up. If you call my number the phone rings all the way through to voicemail. SMS and MMS work fine as far as I can tell. I double checked the phone app in app settings and it is set properly as far as I can tell. I also just updated my radio and that didn't seem to help.

I am using these customizations, and used these in non-Pie versions of this ROM previously:

Magisk

Popcorn Kernel

EDIT: Saw a post a bit further back that said they got phone calls by enabling 3G on T-Mobile. That worked for me, but it is far from ideal.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] magnamentis:
that's exactly the point, if he stayed on naked rom for 2 days, that's it, if he reported back no reboots after less than that it would mean little.

i assume it was done thoroughly but what remains is the question if he had reboots before the test, if not it again doesn't say much because only someone with reboots and then none on naked could tell the difference.

what remains to say, considering the number of users with reboots on very different setups, is that a rom should work with user apps installed as well and my apps run on currently 5 phones of different age and power and only one device has reboots which is the N6.

we all know that the N6 is very sensitive with voltages and the best result i had with full setup on kernels where i could raise the voltages especially on lower frequencies. that doubled the interval for me.

as a resume i'd guess that it's a combo of things, load, apps, hardware and parts of the firmware that is from around 2016 or so.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] NLBeev:
Confirm this. For weeks no random reboots.

But app updates can make themes obsolete. So substratum layers may cause issues. That's why I don't use layers for Bluetooth
[Nexus 6 Android Development] runekock:
A question: how can I tell whether my phone had a soft reboot while I didn't use it? Uptime seems to only be reset after hard reboots.

(I have had a few soft reboots while using the phone, but too few to bother me - around once a week. Better than latest stock, which does a hard reboot about as often as that).
[Nexus 6 Android Development] sucharithan:
Glad to see Android Pie on Shame! Much love and Thanks! :)
[Nexus 6 Android Development] JGradyO:
No thanks, but hey, you gave me the best laugh I've had in a while. You must've been having a heck of a day.

I had recurring trouble with MMS. It always worked right after the clean flash, with the baked in messaging app and default APN (VzW is my carrier), and then with Textra installed.

Then I'd go off on an "App Ops" ramble and start whacking MMS (and other) permissions for apps that I thought didn't need them.

I think the main focus of my poking was Google, since they mix what should be OS level functions into "Play Store" services, but I was never able to devote enough time to isolate the specific stroke I took that killed MMS on my device.

Bottom line, though, at least on Verizon - it isn't Pie in general, and it isn't Nitrogen, that messed with MY ability to do MMS.

I've left App Ops alone since the last clean flash (which BTW always fixed MMS for me) and all has remained well.

(Edit: minor grammar error...)

Hey guys, I just did a thread cleanup. Please stay on topic.

Thank you,
[Nexus 6 Android Development] golpemortal:
Do you mean Shamu ?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Dixon Butz:
I use Textra too.

I want to know who can send MMS with this ROM and what carrier? No one is using Sprint or it's subsidiaries?

Looks like they use band

25, 26, 41

1900, 850, 2500

My neighbor just got a Sprint LTE booster. 5 solid bars on the whole street. It really works well.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] magnamentis:
i very educated guess i think, good that you mentioned layers because chance is high they play a role. :good:
[Nexus 6 Android Development] lchiu7:
I just upgraded to this ROM from the 8.1 version (April this year I think). Did a clean flash and also flashed Popcorn Kernel which I had needed (it seemed) so I could watch Youtube Video and Netflix which were crashing before this kernel was loaded.

So far it's been great with no issues at all. I reverted back to the Pixel 2 launcher which I prefer,.

I did have a couple of questions though.

1. What camera are people using? I am using an older Google Camera because it has photosphere mode. which I find very useful I didn't see a camera in the stock GApps I installed

2. I can't work out how to get to the options for the notification light. It used to be an option in the Display ( think) and you could set all kinds of colours and flashing for certin events. But I can't find it now.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] magnamentis:
LED!

Personalization > Notifications > NotificationLight and/or Battery charging light

i recommend to use one of the great apps to setup you lights because they work on all devices and settings can be backed up and restored, of course it depends on importance and amount fo apps with LED-Notifs.

after all severa new top deviices skipped the light for a smaller notch entirely, hope it's not a trend, it's the reason why is stick to the OP6 and N6, else i'd have bought the OP6T already.

good luch though
[Nexus 6 Android Development] lchiu7:
Thanks I had found that setting but I am sure in the previous ROM you could actually set the colour of the light from a palette for each app. Now it's just on or off.

No big deal though since I could never really remember what colour I had assigned to what app :(
[Nexus 6 Android Development] magnamentis:
i see ;)

as mentioned it's about personal prefs and priorities, for me LED notifs have been key for many years and i have a fixed setup for each app and it's color etc.

at the moment we are dealing with first and second iterations of PIE roms and things (feature sets) will certainly improve over time.

main problem with the N6 is that many devs didn't find a decent battery replacement and in combinatiion with the default voltage sensitivity of the device we've got very few N6'es still running.

further the LEDs of the N6 were an issue from day one, very limited color set adn not activated by google originally it was a permanent step child.

hope you gonna get what you need, else consider my suggestion, it's once and for all solution that has never let me down for many years.
