I've this patch for brightness included in the last build; if that's not helping, I'm not aware of any other fix. If you know, please link me. I'll include that in next build.

Does this work on any other Pie ROM for shamu?

I think you'll have to wait till Smart bar gets implemented in Pie.

[Nexus 6 Android Development] nick491:
Honestly haven't tried any other Pie ROM other than Nitrogen.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nitin.chobhe:

Hi there,

Just installed Nitrogen Pie, it's great ! Only issue is I cant hear anything during calls. I can receive them, I can make calls, but no sound. Any idea ?

Anyway thank you for the amazing work Nitin :)

It only concerns words. Ignoring is good for the battery life.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] ikonline:
Brightness: For me it's the first time the screen has relatively such brightness at lowest level that is a bit to much. Al the other nitrogen roms and the one I just before didn't has this. I will look if there is a solution for this. I installed over night a Pie rom.on my tablet en check if its also there the same with brightness (that is a LineageOS rom). I believe it was also in the previous build of Nitrogen Pie. But at that time I don't work over night.... :cool:

I hope there will be a solution for this.

Can anyone confirm that audio music works with latest version? I have these crashes on logcat and no sound on speakers or headphones:

https://justpaste.it/4v8rq

I did wipe/factory reset 2 times, the last one without configuring Google account. Tested playing a mp3 file. It was ok last week and I don't have the previous ROM zip (downloading sloooow from AFH)
[Nexus 6 Android Development] mahir555:
Yes here too mp3 not working via any standalone music player. However If downloaded via chrome you can play it via chrome .
[Nexus 6 Android Development] RedFodex:
To lower min brightness you can use xda "brightness tweak".

Btw, why kernel auditor doesn't have this ability?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] hbenz2008:
Mine works fine, i suspect without certainty that some of these hickups are due to the flashing process. I am not sure how you got to Pie. But if I was you I will format all, not wipe, then maybe again and reflash in order Nitro, Nano gapps for Pie, magisc 17.1, wipe cache, dalvik, reboot

Side note:even flashed viper black n cheese and that's working

I use playerpro for music

[Nexus 6 Android Development] jolinnard:
It was working last week. Just dirty flashed latest version. But, as I said, I did a factory reset and reflashed with latest TWRP. If I'm not wrong, all this is done by TWRP:

- factory reset erase /data except /data/media and format /cache

- reflash format /system and /boot

- opengapps micro adds to /system GAPPS

Do I need to wipe/erase/format more things? I have no encryption since first days using my shamu and always worked N, O and P until today.

In /data only this survive after a factory reset:

~ # ls /data
lost+found media misc
~ # ls /data/misc/
vold
~ # ls /data/misc/vold/
~ # ls /data/media/
0 backup obb

Edit: Let me try to erase all /sdcard/Android folder and use open_gapps-arm-9.0-nano-20180917.zip. Will report later...

[Nexus 6 Android Development] thegrim11:
+1 here. The screen on the Nexus is just way too damn bright in dark scenarios. I just flashed Nitrogen coming from CarbonROM pie, and it was very unoptimized in comparison. However the one thing I miss about that ROM was the smart pixels setting. It saved tons of battery and lowered the brightness in an impressive way I didn't know existed. (For those who don't know, it turns off a % of the actual pixels as it's an OLED, and even alternates which ones it turns off at a set time to avoid burn in) Im still relearning the whole Android development scene as I took a almost 4 year hiatus. Is this something that can be added to NitrogenOS at some point? A QoL feature after you get the core functionality working of course.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] NLBeev:
I am using an app called Pixel Filter.

And a dark theme called Swift installer.

Both work great with this rom.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] piperthedj:
Can someone verify this setting deals with firmware or software?

Dirty / the new pi over the previous Pie build. LTE will not work. LTE connects for about 20 minutes then disconnects until another restart. Tried to do the same fix I did last time with the 4636 setting, still nothing.

Any ideas or suggestions?

As always, hail to the Dev's
[Nexus 6 Android Development] hbenz2008:
Whose your carrier?

Under 4636,change to lte/wcdma or lte/umts

Try and reset mobile data under reset option

Just a quick update to my previous post. It seems that the sound problem happens only in Google Play Music and Podcast Addict, but only when audio has to be routed to headphones or speakers. Through bluetooth it's ok :eek:

And, how do I workaround the issue? Enabling Android equalizer :confused: :cyclops:
[Nexus 6 Android Development] mahir555:
Thanks. It's a great work around solution.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] piperthedj:
Carrier is T-Mobile.

I did all that with the last Pie build which is why I wondered if the 4636 setting was firmware or software related. I've tried different settings with different results. Where did you find the APN drawer

I'm having the music problem as well, only VLC will play through the speakers or head phone jack. It will play through my bluetooth headset, but for some reason all the audio is routed through my headset which kills my phones battery. All notifications and ringtones are sent via bluetooth headset and my phone speaker won't alert me to anything. My phone will only vibrate till I disconnect my bluetooth headset. Thanks for all of your hard work nitin.chobhe.

Nintendo Switch Online

in anticipation of Nintendo Online becoming available tomorrow, I installed Nintendo Switch Online app.

seems this forces system freeze and RR even after install/reinstall, cache wipe, or apk sideload

Magisk 17.1 is a-OK and SafetyNet checks out --if that may have anything to do with it, like I heard it did with Pokemon

any thoughts as to why? NBD, just the very first problem I have encountered with this ROM
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nitin.chobhe:
Is it compatible with Pie already?

Nitin
[Nexus 6 Android Development] girkev:
Thanks. That's quite good.

On the other hand: Does the phone get crypted by choosing a pattern or password for smart Lock?

Cheers, com_h
[Nexus 6 Android Development] glockman4519:
I don't think the phone encrypts by adding a pin or pass lock but in my experiences since late marshmallow it's best to remove any pins/passwords before trying to flash a new ROM. I think it is fine to lock your device with a pin/password while using it as a DD but if you go to update the rom or change to a different one, I would remove any passwords/pinns before attempting it. I've just had better luck that way.

Sorry... Lol.. I had a double post.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nitin.chobhe:
Yes, I agree! I'll correct it.

[Nexus 6 Android Development] nitin.chobhe:
That commit is adding too much stuff and is not right way of committing. Instead I'll pick this commit for lowering the brightness as linked by [MENTION=4450173]camcory[/MENTION] himself.

Nitin
[Nexus 6 Android Development] maksimreder:
I see what you're saying. The different commits, a good example between good clean code vs dirty code.

Looking forward to the next NitrogenOS release.

As a side note,

I completely wiped and formatted the phone, and flashed this ROM w/ nano gapps, and LTE signal has not dropped, always there even after reboots, have not needed to enter the *#*#4636#*#* to manually turn on the signal. Only thing I had to change was set the governor to conservative. On interactive the battery life suffered, phone was warm, I tried tweaking the governor tunables got it bit stable, but Core 2 was at Max frequency at all times, couldn't figure that out so switching to conservative is proving the best battery life vs performance.

Looking forward to Popcorn's kernel for the pie. Had great success with it on Oreo. Switching the CPU Hotplug to AutoSMP was the key for me to run through all day and still have 40% left over.

Thank you all the devs.

Settings -> Lock Screen Crash

I forgot to disable the pattern lock screen before flashing ROM this last time, and now when I go to SETTING -> LOCK SCREEN it crashes (over and over).

It's still asking me for the pattern to boot android, which I can get past just fine, but I can't set or remove the pattern from the phone / settings now.

Any ideas ? Phone says it's "encrypted" if that's relevant.

Well, that should confirm for [MENTION=5044214]nitin.chobhe[/MENTION] it's indeed a bug in 10/27 that has carried thru to 10/31. It's the ONLY one I've found. Really great work. Loving 7.1 and this is the first one that came out for the N6.

[Nexus 6 Android Development] Emilius:
In developer options if you put smallest with to 600 you will get tablet mode. That is the biggest resolution in tablet mode you can get. Everything seems a little to small to read but you can always put fonts a bit bigger. That is what I do, make font size large. Now when you open gmail for example or Chrome you will realize that these apps looks different.

Now, if you add more buttons to your navigation bar (in smartbar settings) you will see that buttons are no more centred. These buttons are slightly pushed to the right. I would like that to be fixed because I use to use tablet mode on my N6 all the time.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] FCORivers:
I've been reading a lil and I can't seem to find the same issues happening to me mentioned although I may very well be wrong, so please XDA police don't bash on me.

My cLock settings for lockscreen seem to have a mind of their own and go back to no weather whenever they want. Sometimes not even waiting for a reboot to go off.

Also on pixel launcher I got weather shown on the area the date shows at first boot which I love but that too disappeared, and can't seem to find where to turn on or off. I thought it was a default option because on previous rom version it remained on, I was on the 27th, now clean flashed 31st.

I can't find the stock option for split screen, I read that you can manually add that function as a long press but after working the first time, now it fc's systemui app and I have to reboot my phone to make it usable.

All of this on a clean flash with no mods or kernels.

Apart from those 3 unimportant but annoying to my ocd issues, everything else is perfectly gorgeous, working very good.

Thanks devs for the great work.

Edit:

And just like that, the weather on pixel launcher came back. Only time will tell for how long, lol

The default launcher is Launcher 3 - Quickstep
