Hi all! Thank you for your help. I was a little bit out of my game, considering that it has been a while since I tried to work my way around with non official software. Having said that, the phone is now, apparently, fully functional. I used the Nexus tool kit mentioned and, even if I still had some issues with it, in the end, I got the job done. This community has always been very helpful to me. Cheers from Portugal.?

Hi there, thanks a lot for you! This ROM is really awesome, but I found some problem on my nexus6. I just flashed newest ROM on my phone without gapps, however

China Mobile cannot use

, I mean there is no signal on it. Actually I dont know what should I do, but for now, I prepare to flashed other roms to test it!

in addition to this i'd remind anyone who has tasker installed and similar or the exact same issue can use tasker to achieve the same, just in case that someone is trying to keep the number of single task/single reason apps as low as possible.

Couldn't this also be done on Local Terminal by enabling it from Developer Options? You may need to use 'su' before typing that command if it needs root access.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] magnamentis:
of course but then the set on boot feature appears a must with something like this, i'd prefer not to use terminal manually upon each boot, but as i said, no problem to do it, just not very convenient for many ;)

Hi , anyone with the earpiece volume too high? When I listen to WhatsApp voice messages or I'm in call , volume is too high even at the lowest value , in silent places everyone can ear anything . Is there any way to change it?

I replaced the battery 2 days ago , finally it arrived from Germany. I will let you know in the next few days , but for now phone feels great , it's definitely faster , no more crashes ( I had them after calls ) , no more unexpected shutdowns and phone goes down till 1% and then turns off in the right way with the shutdown screen . Looks like even a well degraded battery like mine on nexus 6 is not enough to power the cpu or the rest of the hardware in some situations , and this cause problems like hangs , crashes or shutdowns . The old battery at around 15% was at 2.9v this new one stay at 3.2 till the end at 1%

follow-up on the reboots topic !

hi [MENTION=9350973]All[/MENTION] of you who encounter reboots from time to time:

as i reported earlier it has to do with the system UI and the number of reboots depends on a few factors like:

- themes

- voltage

- minium cpu-frequency and a few other kernel settings like boost time and boots frequencies.

the above have an impact on the number but only not theming at all got me down to a number that would be hard to recognize because reboots can happen without being registred, in the pocket, face down and/or at night.

now as it happens i stumbled over a new factor that has to do with the kind and frequency of such reboots, it's orientation and as you could easily

guess, again related to the systemUI

now to narrow things further down i simply ask all those who encounter reboots:

a) do you have your device, especially system and systemUI themed ?

b) do you at the same time use landscape mode frequently, i.e for navigation purposes or on a cradle etc. ?

c) are you using a kernel, i.e FK where you cannot tweak the voltage, hence have to stay on defaults ?

thing is that as mentioned above, in portrait mode and/or without theme i encounter zero observed reboots

with raised voltage but themed and in landscape i still encounter some but much less reboots

theming apps but not system that would reduce the number of reboots significantly while other parameters stay the same

a combo of all workarounds would as well give me no observed reboots except when rotation is activated, i remember 1 or 2 with camera

in skype and sygic, both are heavy on cpu, gpu and voltage for a split second.

i am aware of elektroschmock's post about his take on the reboots and without contradicting anything i made the following tests:

reverted back to LOS 15.1 by elektroschmock and set the device up the same way i do with nitro-pie and any other rom or device as far

as software and hardware allow.

RESULT:

same kind of reboots, and same workarounds work except:

the theme does not matter but landscape mode does and kernel/voltage does.

so now those who are interested can verify or negate the above said with their setup so that perhaps we can find a common denominator

that applies to all or al most of us, so that we can give best possible recommendations as to how to avoid and/o heavily reduce reboots.

further, last but not least, stock rom with default settings and in landscape does obviously not or very rarely reboot which is why the testers

probably did not stumble upon the issue. if a tester does not let his device idle in landscape it most probably don't happen, especially without

the device being themed.

i have to mention here that i rotate my lockscreen as well while it's not the reason i thought to mention it.

you can have your lockscreen rotationg by:

lockscreen.rot_override=true

as a comand line int system>build.prop ( you can add the line at the end with an empty line) this is not mandatory but it's the easiest way and the way it works on all my 5 devices from 4 different OEMs including Samsung Note

Viper is working (with Audio Modification Library flashed after Viper).
[Nexus 6 Android Development] ZakSeven:
a) No theme, stock as installed by the rom.

b) Only application that really use landscape and it happened in it was a game. Other apps where I noticed happening including while in a phone conversation where all Portrait. With that said, I do use landscape chrome and a few apps here and there but haven't experience a restart there yet.

c) Using kernel that c/w rom.

Of note, the issue occurred for me twice while in phone conversation. Once the battery was 88% and restarted same level, the 2nd time I encountered a restart on a call, the phone was even plugged in and over 70% on a slow charge @ 1amp. My specific battery is very good, it in fact to keep his charge very well, last long and I never used a fast charger on it.

Of note, it does not happen so frequently while I am using it really so not critical for me. Although annoying when happening during calls but restart so quite I can just pretend we somehow disconnected. :)_ Just reporting to help out as personally, at the moment, not have much time to troubleshoot/test. But I do know it happen also while I am not using the phone, sitting there closed, charging, or thru a night.

This one Nitrogen-OS-P-shamu-20181112.zip I downloaded and flashed! Actually, yesterday I re-flashed it clearly, and China Mobile is ok one day, today I reboot the phone, the signal disappeared. Then I tested China Unicom just now, that's not ok, with same problem on it. I can't find the reason, maybe I get something wrong? It's so wired！
[Nexus 6 Android Development] magnamentis:
did you try or do you have a chance to try a foreign sim-card ?

i had similar issues in shenzhen and my sim from hong-kong didn't have any such issues.

as we both know things can change very rapidly hence no reliable workaround to recommend but if by any chance you can try a foreign sim you could at least find out whether it's a network/isp restriction like it was in my case.

i spend less and less time in china since i started moving to spain for retirement but i think it's worth a try. also you could try your sim with a non-google phone, that's another side of the story that i've herd that pixel's and nexi have some google functionality made mandatory and don't work properly with them active in mainland china while there are no such issues in hong kong.

always read the op carefully before you flash any rom)

no you need to format you're phone : Go to twrp recovery

Wipe- Format data - type yes - reboot to recovery then go to

Wipe And wipe cache & dalvik cache -data -system -cache

no you are ready to flash this rom download this rom and gapps package on you're pc then send it to youre phone with usb

after go to install : install rom + gapps ad magisk if you need root

welcome ?

How to get rid of the Androd setup notification? It says "App and data restore paused. Restore would continue when setup is done." I have not copied from any other source, not set a security pattern, not changed the wallpaper or fonts, not given a card number - that's what I didn't do when I set up the phone. Can't get rid of that notification. When, I click on it, it opens a windows with "Apps" icon on it. Clicking OK won't help at all.

The ROM is quite nice, simple and snappy! Overnight, the battery lost only 3% with wifi on (I forgot to put wifi off). :)
[Nexus 6 Android Development] lchiu7:
Just some random thoughts on this ROM. Pie seems very good and stable and so far the only issue I've encountered is facial recognition doesn't work. Trying to increase functionality I reflashed the ROM and flashed Magidisk so that I can use Google Pay and possibly access work remote servers (our remote access solution doesn't permit rooted phones which, while the N6 was not rooted, the unlocked bootloader was an issue). Anyway Magidisk was installed I could use Google Pay. I then noticed that streaming video (Amazon Prime, Youtube TV) was a bit choppy which it wasn't on Oreo. I then remembered I had flashed Popcorn Kernel on Oreo and so did that on Pie and it fixed the choppy video. I have no idea but I am not arguing with success :)

Viper works well. There isn't a Dolby version for Android pie yet. Lately I've come to realize with the updated Poweramp hd audio, I would benefit more with Dolby than viper. Viper does work great tho, especially the nice boost it gives the phone's speaker.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] M4CH0:
Thank you so much for your reply. Regretly, I have no foreign sim-card to test it. Actually, in my memory, the oldest version of NOS seems ok. And I tested China Mobile and China Unicom on my OnePlus One with Mokee ROM, things be ok!

So, I really dont know what is the next. Maybe I need more tests to find out the solution. But, thanks a lot.

Why there is no icon for Camera, while the camera app is there? The camera app cannot be uninstalled. If there was an icon, it might work. Installed OpenCamera and it said that there is another camera app was working, so I force stopped and disabled the default camera app and rebooted. OpenCamera started working.

The default camera might've worked, if an icon was there to click on.

Hi,

I just installed this ROM. Great job! Great job!

I will need the ROOT. I tried to install MAGISK (Magisk-v17.3.zip) but after restarting I don't have the MAGISK icon.

I didn't have any mistakes during the flash and I tried twice without success. Do you have a solution ?

Thansk !
[Nexus 6 Android Development] deadcatsrule:
You need to install magisk manager as well
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nitin.chobhe:
Camera is a bit tricky on shamu. If you do not see camera icon, try rebooting the phone and you should see it. This has been discussed in this thread many a times.

Reboot and see if you have Magisk. If not, flash it once again. This is known issue with Magisk.

Downloaded this rom yesterday, and it's running great. Definitely up to the dev's standards. Just wondering if i can get a "dark mode" onto this rom. I would like to get dark mode for all the google apps. Presently, i'm not using Nova, but if there's an app that would help me get that dark mode, i would appreciate someone in this forum helping me out. Thanks again for an outstanding rom.:o:o

I just noticed something strange about the ROM on my machine. The Bluetooth icon does not show up even when Bluetooth is on and only displays when I actually am connected to a Bluetooth device. I cannot find a setting for suppressing or enabling the notification icon a Bluetooth. Anyone with any ideas? Thanks
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nitin.chobhe:
Use substratum for that...

That's Pie behaviour.

Nitin
[Nexus 6 Android Development] magnamentis:
i bit surprised with your question, install substratum and choose a theme and choose the apps you want dark and that's it.

============================================================================================

Update on the Reboot Front: ;)

after applying all the workarounds mentioned earlier but fully theme each and everything that my theme allows, rebots nevertheless got very rare.

this morning i woke up and recognized that my several phones show the same notifications (of course) except for Shamu.

first i thought, damn what's now going on again and then i checked up-time with EKKM-App and "bingo" up-time at 10:15 was 4 hours and 53 minutes, hence the reboot happened exactly while or short after Titanium Backup finishied it's scheduled backup and upload to dropbox, the reboot must have happened thereafter because the TiBu end of task notifications were among the missing notifications, together with all other notifications from before that time (the reboot)

i'll keep an eye on it and if it happens again at that time which i suspect it did before, i shall de-activate the scheduled backup and do it manually for a while to see how things go.

certainly when i perform a TiBu scheduled backup manually including dropbox upload there are no reboots but mostly the device is on and not idle when i do it manually, as we all know reboots happen mostly but not only in idle mode which hints at boos settings or other things that are not reacting quickly enough for certain heavy tasks, kind of hickups i'd say, because raising voltage and idle frequencies etc. cut my reboots in 4-5 means i have 4-5 times less of them now with the else same setup like before.

[Nexus 6 Android Development] ostrolk:
Its bit hard to read all the posts here, too long thread. :)

I wasn't complaining, even though it might've felt like that. I simply like your ROM!

OpenCamera does the job. You have to install it, then disable the default camera app, and reboot.

I've flashed all Pie 9 ROMs for N6, including your other ROM, but re-flashed the backup to Nitrogen. Everything works.

Wouldn't mind some of the options in that ROM here too, but without the colours. I like the simplicity here. :)
[Nexus 6 Android Development] beta1204:
Ok, Thank you very much ! It works!

Other questions :

- Are the notifications lights not working ? (Only works when charging the battery).

- Since then, my phone has been switched off while I have 10/20% of the battery left. Can I recalibrate my battery ? (app,...)

- I can't complete the configuration of "OK GOOGLE". Do you have the same problem?

Thanks !

Uptime ;) !

just a little heads up on uptime ( reboot-less timespan 1day 15h 9' )

obviously the device survived last night's scheduled TiBu backup + dropbox upload

still fully themed and zero landscape mode usage, i used to have it on landscape on charger in my office and nightstand but can live without, just use another device to serve as a night clock ;)

voltages are key beside the fact that themes and landscape usage (permanently over hours) add to it.

these are not solutions but workarounds that do a good job to reduce RRs to an acceptable minimum while it allows to setup the device according to personal preferences that may otherwise trigger RRs more often than default naked ROM does. ( remember what elektroschmock had to say about RRs on this device )

see screenshot below:
[Nexus 6 Android Development] runekock:
[MENTION=5372360]magnamentis[/MENTION]

When my phone soft-restarts, it doesn't affect uptime. Are you perhaps talking about hard reboots? We may be talking about entirely different issues.

(A hard reboot is one to shows the Google logo during restart).
[Nexus 6 Android Development] McMannes:
How long are your sot friends. i have been using the rom for two days. i think less than an hour compared to lineage os.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] magnamentis:
whether WE talk about different things i can't know ;)

of course, different users with different setups have different issues, hence it's well possible that you're reboots are different from others.

about terms it's so that a reboot is first of all a reboot and all other reboots have a name like soft reboot, while a hard reboot / reset is more used for

pressing the power button 8-10 seconds until the device boots boots. a normal reboot is a full reboot and would affect uptime.

to answer your question a bit more detailed, i have seen both, full reboots (kernel level) as well as soft reboots while sofl reboots as you

correctly mentioned are often UI-reboots that do NOT affect uptime.

thing with UI / soft reboots is that if you don't have the device in front of your eyes when it happens it easily evades us.

advantage of a soft reboot ist that one can see it easily in the logcat while after a full reboot on kernel level one needs last kmsg which is, other than with earlier APIs not always easy to find which means it got a bit more difficult to find the cause for kernel level random reboot than that for a soft /system-UI reboot.

as long as soft reboots don't happen all the time (several times a day during use) i won't check logs every day and when i did i found very few of them. system-UI reboots are most often (not always) theme related while themes and landscape use do have an impact on the reboot frequency on my device.

the reason why i posted at all is to help affected users to get ideas for eventual workaround that either get them rid of the reboots or like in my case reduce them to a number that won't harm usability too much.

BTW today i had the second of only 1 reboots while driving with music and two apps using location. device boots and reactivate everything with a shortcut and all is well, no big issue either.

last thing to add would be that if someone only has soft reboots, the voltage would not have a big impact indeed while rotation and theming still does. also i mentioned repeatedly that it's a combo of factors including the one that elektroschmock mentioned which stand for soft reboots.

Sometimes, when you want to call, it says to disable the airplane mode, but the airplane mode is not at all enabled. So, I click on the airplane mode to enable it, then click again to disable it, and the call can be made. The problem is when you get a call, it can't done that easily. Would you look into this in your next release?

Or should I use the Phone app from Google? Is this a system problem?

If Google dialer solves your problem, then use it. You are the first to have this issue. I've not read anyone else reporting that.

I am going to use the default dialer that came with the ROM. The problem might go away. I'll reboot a few times to check how it goes. Are you planning a new release by the way? Or, is this release the official final one?
