Just installed this ROM after seeing Pure Nexus had hit a dead end (it was good though).

Just wiped all memory apart from data and then flashed

- Nitrogen-OS-O-shamu-20180224.zip

- open_gapps-arm-8.1-nano-20171209.zip

and it all went fine. Then restored a Google backup (not Nandroid since I really didn't have any data I would mine losing) and was back online again.

So far the only issue that I am experiencing is that haptic feedback is almost undetectable. I can't recall if that was the case under PN since this isn't my daily driver but I am sure I could feel haptic feedback before. Could this be a ROM issue?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] rfactor117:
Good to hear ?

It's not a rom issue.

But Check Sound/Advanced /Vibrate on tap.

Official open gapps are available, You should update the gapps, Dirty flash is fine. ?

Here is the new build with March security patch....

Changelog: here

Download link: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=673956719939825755

Use Magisk 16.x (lower versions cause bootloop)

Enjoy!

[Nexus 6 Android Development] cfrank38:
Thanks for the update :)
[Nexus 6 Android Development] lchiu7:
OK thanks. Had a few heart stopping moments. Not sure what I did but the phone completely locked up after a screen lock (pattern) only showing a faint left arrow at the bottom left. Nothing I did could fix it. Tried to reboot - got to entering the pattern and then the same behaviour.

So booted to recovery, wiped everything apart from user data and reflashed the ROM and Open GApps. This time during restoration of the apps it had backed up it did this again.

Third time, flashed the ROM, Gapps etc. but this time did something different 1) didn't enable any lock pattern and 2) restored from a day ago (not that the Google backup actually backs up data). It booted fine and then I dirty flashed http://opengapps.org/ open_gapps-arm-8.1-nano-20180307.zip

Crossing my fingers but so far so good.

Also haptic feedback seems to be working again - I am sure I had the setting turned on but why argue with success :) Certain in TWRP Touch Recovery the feedback is very strong - much stronger than in the actual OD

Hey, Nitin! Great work with the ROM and regular updates. Is there a built-in SELinux switch? I have been away from Nitrogen for a while and want to flash it again.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nitin.chobhe:
No, there is no built in SELinux switch.

[Nexus 6 Android Development] IslandBig:
The first time i unlock by pattern or pin the phone freezes for almost 5 minutes, after this unlocking by pattern and pin, and everything else works well

This also happened in 24/02/18 built too

I'm on 08/03/18 built with 08/03/18 gapps from open gapps.org

Hey Guys,

Which Kernel can i usw dir this Rom?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nitin.chobhe:
Google search is not included in the ROM.

Stock

Nitin
[Nexus 6 Android Development] EpicKip:
Not include it in gapps, you can mage a open-gapps.config file and do something like:

EXCLUDE

Search

I don't know if its called that exactly but you can find most info here: OpenGapps Advanced features and options

Bluetooth battery usage

I flashed the latest version 8/3 version with Open gapps (stock), I got the bootloop, I wiped everything and flashed it again, but after 10 minutes, after doing the pattern it froze and I restarted it and again, there is the bootloop. So, I went back to 2/24 version, with the new Open gapps and it has been working for 12 hours. But I noticed that the bluetooth has used %74 in the battery monitor. What do you think I should do?

(I can't post outside links, I don't know how to post the picture here so here is the link if you wanna see how my battery usage looks: http: //i65. tinypic. com/2vip5b8.jpg there are spaces in the url)
[Nexus 6 Android Development] The Doctor04:
There are a number of discussions on XDA about open gapps not working 100%. All of the Oreo builds are different from the next, it's the same reason why some nonstock kernels work and others don't.

If you don't see the APN in the list you will need to add or edit the correct APN settings into the Apns-conf.Xml file and then reset APN'S to default.

[Nexus 6 Android Development] harlekein:
Look, I know it's annoying to have problems on your phone, but Nitin doesn't owe you anything. You install a custom ROM, the risk and responsibility is entirely yours.

It's this sort of entitlement which makes developers who put in their skills and time into the community burn out and quit.

Read the threads, the troubleshooting, do your own research.

And if you do benefit from this ROM consider if extending your phone lifetime and increasing options is worth anything to you. Donate if you can afford it and even then realize that a donation is not a purchase.

Every time I start internet google play services errors pops on my screen. and I can't sign in to google account.

[Nexus 6 Android Development] xNotta:
I just clean flashed from a factory image over to the 08.March.2018 build.

When recording video, there is a 2-3 lag where all you see is a still image with audio before the video goes into motion.

Tried multiple camera apps, including this rom's stock app, and have an unresolved thread about this in the Q&A. It seems kernel related and occurs with Nitrogen OS's kernel and FK kernel. Back on the last rom bulid of 7.1.2, ElementalX was the only kernel with non-buggy video recording.

I provided logs in the thread but no one could make sense of them and no one is willing help help diagnose it.

I tired contacting the kernel developers, but they ignore me.

I can reproduce the issue indefinitely.

Can someone work with me to get this video recording issue fixed please?

update: I added 2 logcats. One of the video recording start to finish and another of the video playing back.

Also wanted to mention that the actual recording time was 7 seconds but the final video was 10 seconds. Yes, I tried with extended recording times but they all only experience the problem in the beginning and miss the first few seconds of the recording.

[Nexus 6 Android Development] rfactor117:
Clean install?

Try 3 things

1. Download and dirty flash open gapps nano, wipe cache then reboot.

2. Navigate to TWRP and reset to factory, then reboot.

Keep in mind even though we think we are wiping everything like a clean slate there is always something left over from your previous installation.

Hope this helps ?

Not wrong with Nitrogen OS or Google Dialer.

Also check that Google Dialer is default and has appropriate permissions checked.

Try resetting your proximity sensor.

In one of the cars, when talking via Bluetooth connection, every couple of minutes bluetooth on the phone dies, restarts and reconnects, and this keeps repeating (the call itself stays connected). Phone works fine with other cars I've tried. And also when phone had Nitrogen 7.1.2 it was working fine in this troubled car. From the log it looks as if unimplemented packet type 16 is causing this.

So I've been on a December build for 3 months and have been plagued with Bluetooth crashes and daily reboots. Even tried the Elemental kernel with no luck.

Last week I did a clean flash of the 24th Feb build and can confirm the Bluetooth issues are gone but I still get a daily reboot :crying:

It's still an awesome ROM though and well worth upgrading too!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nitin.chobhe:
It's something wrong at your end. There are no reboots.

To test: You can just flash the ROM and observe for reboots (and there won't be any).

Yeah it's weird isn't it. I did a clean flash, put Gapps on, put Magisk on and then rebooted. Following the restore of my Google account data I was all done.

random reboot fact

Sorry, but I too have the random reboot a couple of times so far on 8 March build with "stock" open gapps. Have done complete wipe twice, then flash rom, gapps, magisk 16, then google restore of my apps. On the next update will go back to the nano gapps.

Still, this rom is keeping my n6 alive.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] rfactor117:
Be happy that GA works with Oreo on the N6 with the screen on.

GA is a known issue on all custom oreo roms with screen off.

Something is causing your phone to reboot, it's not Nitrogen OS.

You could dirty flash official opengapps.org nano, not sure if that is it but it might be worth a try.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] H4X0R46:
I've looked into this issue on several threads. Seems most custom roms are having the issue. What I gathered is that it's an issue with Lineage and should be fixed soon. The Lineage team is aware of it. Since most roms are Lineage based (not sure about Nitrogen, so forgive me if I'm wrong here) this bug happens. A fix however, let the phone sit for about 20 minutes frozen like that, and then the first time you unlock your phone it may freeze again.... Leave it for another 20 minutes or so. It's annoying, but this fixes it.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] davewaave:
I will try nano. My reasoning about the rom causing the reboots is that I don't have them on stock rom. I have had them also on prior builds of Nitrogen. It could be a weird combo of the apps I've installed, but again, with the same apps stock doesn't randomly reboot.

Nonetheless, this rom is worth the issues.

Running this nitrogen rom on nexus. Suddenly I lost my phone services no voice phone service can be provided. I restarted for the purpose and it stuck in the boot loop now. I will reflash a stock rom back as this testings can be dangerous. can't even factory reset neither starts in recovery mode.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] uzairahmad1986:
I installed a custom rom (Nitrogen OS 8.1.0 oreo ) and just after 2 days I had issue with my phone services. So I restarted my phone but stuck in bootloop.

Then, I tried to install the stock rom from google that is 7.1.1 the latest one. but failed to flash with nexus toolkit.

I then tried it with fastboot but failed.

I also tried to fastbood the same nitrogen os 8.1.0 as adb sideload and Total xfer: 1.00x ruined me.

PS: After trying every method (wiping cache & wipe and factory reset) my phone started but it asks PIN form me that i didn't set . and gboard starting failed. I am unable to enter any character.

I thought Nitrogen OS is the best but I was wrong.
