please help...

BUMP!!

Hello all, just a quick couple questions.

What exactly is the difference with the stock based vs custom? i believe i am on the stock based but i am having trouble identifying this.

I looked at my folder i keep of the downloaded materials, and it looks as though i had downloaded the vendor image as well as opm1.011_v1.7.0 (when i first installed this rom recently). I am trying to figure out what new version to download, as i do have magisk so i am very confused. Also, when i download whatever is helped decided, can i dirty flash this or do i have to wipe my phone and the standard procedure?

Sidenote/random question. I also have an ota to 8.1.0 showing up, and i believe it may very well be the january patch, can i install that or i should just update this?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] borxnx:
You cannot take OTA updates when you're on a custom ROM
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Calko2882:
Thank you very much for your quick reply!

I am trying to decide which version to go to, custom or stock? can you help me understand what the difference is, as i do understand that the rom's base is either stock or custom, but does the custom have more features im missing out on? i also know roms have changed over time, and nowadays we can make our own flavor without relying on a compilation i.e. rom.

One of my biggest things is that since it looks like im going to have to clean flash the new updated rom, should i go to the custom one (as i believe im on the stock December one)? And is it possible to dirty flash this, or i should use a backup option like googles or titanium in order to achieve what i got going.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] borxnx:
I don't have this phone anymore, and I can't remember the difference between stock and custom, but if you search the thread I'm sure someone has asked before.

Dirty flashing may be possible, but always make a backup, and if you dirty flash and run into any issues then you'll have to clean flash. I usually try to clean flash most updates when I'm not in a hurry, just to be safe and to avoid running into issues later on.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Calko2882:
Oh well at that point you wouldnt be the person to ask, so why comment negatively. I did search it, but it didnt answer my question, so i asked.

Appreciate the response. Already figured it out, and well my issue was why need to clean flash if it was just a patch for the month, but im sure im missing something about it.

Wi-Fi Assistant Not Working on January Custom ROM

I've had a problem with getting Wi-Fi Assistant to work on the current custom build. Every time I tap "Connect To Open Wi-Fi Automatically", I'm hit with either Settings or Google Connectivity Services force-closing. I've tried everything from uninstalling and re-installing Connectivity Services (and granting it rights to modify system settings), to dirty flashing the ROM, to no avail. It's worked on every build up until now.

Could this be a possible ROM issue or something on Google's end?

Thanks in advance! ?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Badger50:
Just a shot in the dark, do you have wifi scanning enabled??
[Nexus 6P Android Development] KBizzle:
Stock refers to a rom based on the OS that comes STOCK on the device. IE roms that are based on releases from Google. Custom is typically a rom that is altered with other features not included in stock or its based on other variations of Android such as CM/Lineage. You can find a lot of stock-based roms around here. Essentially custom roms based on the stock rom, so technically they are custom as well.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] clshores:
Not working on custom AOSP ROMs. Works fine on the stock based.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] KaSrAHiDe:
Guys I've got a problem with custom Rom!

First I've flashed Vendor image and then BASED 8.1 Rom from 7.1.2 PN ROM, everything was working great (but sometimes I've got lags in operation).

Then I flashed Custom 8.1 Rom, after that my phone can not recognize my SIM card!

It says insert your SIM card but already I inserted it !

Any solution?please.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Badger50:
Remove your fingerprint/pin/password lock screen security and reboot. Then add it back in.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] KaSrAHiDe:
Thanks dude !! you are amazing.

should I do it every time that I want to reboot my phone?or just once at the 1st?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Badger50:
Thanks. But I'm not amazing. This issue is well known on this rom and 6p. Just do a little search next time when your having issues. The problem should now be fixed. So, no, you don't have to do it each time you reboot. Have a great day :laugh:
[Nexus 6P Android Development] shikhanshu:
Same here. Did you ever find out about the night mode? I wonder if I need to have enabled Pixel 2 Mods while installing the ROM to get night mode. Might try that.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] shikhanshu:
Yes, enabling Pixel 2 Mods in Aroma installer brings the night light mode! Yipppeeeee
[Nexus 6P Android Development] vibealite:
hi i had this problem too i just flashed back to stock rom with the nexus tool kit
[Nexus 6P Android Development] desijatt007:
Awesome will try that, so I read somewhere on this thread that if you activate pixel mods you have to make some changed when all booted up...is that true, if so what changes were those ...thx
[Nexus 6P Android Development] shikhanshu:
Mine was a clean flash so did not have to change anything. Once it booted, I basically set up a new device. On that note, I forgot enabling charging LED notification option in Aroma installer. Now I already have set up my device with apps and settings. Can I just reboot to recovery and dirty flash with Aroma and everything will be fine? Or will I have to re-do a clean flash (wiping system/data/cache)?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Exodusche:
I think you can get away with just wiping system and cache but leave data. Its kind of similar to dirty flashing just a little cleaner. However its always recommended to do a clean flash.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] veeeeeeeeee:
Delete this
[Nexus 6P Android Development] shikhanshu:
Which mod (if any) adds the "volume button swap on orientation change" item to the Settings? Or is it even there in any of the mods (or the vanilla ROM itself)?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] diegz:
I've been using this great room for a while but since yesterday many apps force close as soon as I open them!

What could possibly be?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] undeadking:
Any ideas on where these TWRP flashable bootloader zips can be found at? Checked a couple threads but they don't have the latest available as zips
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Badger50:
They might be hard to come by since the 6p is coming to the EOL and development has slowed. Fastbooting them is pretty easy though.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] undeadking:
EOL already? And I just bought mine for $80 last week lol Anyways yeah ill just Fastboot them if needed. And one last thing, u noticed that if I flash ElementalX kernel with this Rom I lose wifi and Bluetooth is sketchy at best- anyone else have this happen or does everyone just use the stock kernel provided in the Rom?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Exodusche:
They did a good job with the stock kernel in Oreo. You can still change the governors they are uploaded to storage with the elemental app.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Bontropi:
Don't know if it has been already said, but Xposed 8.1 Oreo version+Gravity Box beta version for Oreo is perfectly functional with SuperXE Rom Custom version.

Enjoy!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] tcoursey:
Just switched from Straight Talk (Verizon) to MetroPCS (T-Mobile). Both carries are well supported in my area. However I now can't connect to LTE and jumps from 3G to Edge back and forth at the office. I've read in places that Nexus6P and Google has issues with it's "Baseband" or something.

Here is what people say is a good one to use "baseband 3.72" Is there a way to use this with the latest release of SuperXE. I'm not super familiar with all the different things... I now have flashed the very latest Rom and Vendor image. Had no issues on StraightTalk.

But I read alot of places TMobile has issues with N6P... Any thoughts?

Here is an article about the issue: https://support.t-mobile.com/thread/137053
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Badger50:
I kept the 3.72 radio on my 6p since it came out. I'm on Verizon, so I can't speak about t-mobile. You can use whatever radio you want on any build. I just updated my backup 6p to the January update, and flashed the 3.72 radio afterwards. No problems at with reception or signal :good:
[Nexus 6P Android Development] tcoursey:
That sounds promising. Couple of questions if you can...

Where do I get the radio only, of different versions?

Do I flash in TWRP?

Worth a shot for sure...from what I read.

EDIT: I found these, but does not look like it's flashable with TWRP. Just see an option under Install Images for Boot, System, Vendor, Recovery. https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=49332

EDIT2: So I've flashed via Fastboot 3.72. Will see if that helps...I might try some of the newer ones too from the above list. Thanks for your input.

Hello,

does anyone have a bug with google app? Can´t swipe it from left. Using Pixel-Launcher. Anyone else?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] MidnightDevil:
Uh, for some reason I don't have the option for WiFi call on this rom? I'm not entirely sure but is that future present on AOSP roms or just images?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] ViperXvenom8888:
It does. Enable System Tuner. :D
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Sheetzie03:
Did you see [MENTION=4860184]Brembo109[/MENTION] replied to you about hotword?

He also asked you if you had read the previous last few pages and you didnt answer him. Personally, rather than to just jump right into a thread and post a question without reading anything, bec the answer to my question may be right there, I read the previous pages iv missed since the last time I was here, unless im in a hurry of course. Don't you think that makes sense to do that same thing?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] ripv2:
VOLTE

Does anyone get VOLTE on the latest build? Ive cleaned flashed the latest build. Thanks.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] erm1001:
No volte for me either. I am on Tmobile Usa. Radio version is 3.75.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] KennyDumah:
So the hotword detection works for me in the now launcher but I can't activate it for pixel launcher. It's like for everyone else.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Brembo109:
Going to flash this now. See you later alligator ?

You need to make the launcher a system app
[Nexus 6P Android Development] weedeater84:
i think i am dump, how i do what?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] ViperXvenom8888:
Swipe down twice and hold the gear icon. (Top right corner) for about 5 seconds the release. System UI Tuner enabled. :D
[Nexus 6P Android Development] weedeater84:
whaaaaat???
[Nexus 6P Android Development] ViperXvenom8888:
Swipe down twice to access your quick toggles, you'll notice the settings icon on the top right. You have to hold it for 5 seconds to enable System UI Tuner. :)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Sheetzie03:
Yes it's working for me.

Here are the versions of Google app, pixel launcher , and hot word.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] KennyDumah:
I have the same and it is still not working. Also tried reinstalling on a full wiped base. :/ Weird man
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Sheetzie03:
It's been so hit or miss, truly frustrating.

Just seen Google beta had an update today, maybe try that. Also keep messing with it. Trying to set the hotword I mean.

Edit: are u coming off of a clean flash? If not,.try that.

I always clean flash no matter what
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Badger50:
You can find the radios here...

https://drive.google.com/drive/mobile/folders/0B3CvZVm9LK4cc0tTOUg0TllHbDQ?usp=sharing

You have to fastboot these particular ones. There are some TWRP flashable zips out there. But I prefer the fastboot method myself.:good:
[Nexus 6P Android Development] birdy3636:
Every time I talk on the phone everyone says my voice sounds muffled and they can barely hear me on full volume. I can hear them perfectly fine. I'm on the latest custom built with updated radio and bootloader for 8.1.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] mholloway:
Are you using a phone case,I had the same problem,but it was my case,it was slightly covering that little hole under my camera.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] birdy3636:
I do but I've never had a problem since the newest update of this rom
[Nexus 6P Android Development] mholloway:
Well just a suggestion,
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Sheetzie03:
A quick fix- go to build prop, change persist.audio.fluence.voicecall from true to false. It disables the noise cancelling mic, but it absolutely fixes the issue. It's something that when it affects the phone, it's an absolute must eacj time you flash a Rom.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Exodusche:
I cleaned the mic on the back out with a needle lots of pocket lint. Just be gentle don't want to damage it. Since removing the junk calls are crystal clear now.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] martinko23:
Hello, I'm on the latest build downloaded from 1st post since yesterday

Today, every time I got a call the screen wouldn't turn on unless I press the power button, and now when I call someone or I get a call, the call automatically goes in speaker, but I have to press the speaker icon twice to get it back to normal earpiece..

What's that about.. ? How to solve this please ? thanks

How should I update security patches ? I'm currently on Jan 05

---------- Post added at 12:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:36 PM ----------

This has "BULLHEAD" images inside the zip. Shouldn't it be ANGLER

is it safe for flashing?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Badger50:
Well, if your currently on this rom, you wait for the Dev to update it. When he does, you'll need to fastboot the new radio, bootloader, and vendor. Then, when you enter twrp, you'll wipe cache and dalvik, then flash the updated rom. Me thinks you should read the OP, installation instructions usually reside there.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] zeeshanalpha:
Can I flash this in my 6P through twrp? Or is it for devs
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Badger50:
C'mon man...read the OP!!

Or either yes or no?

Not done this before and would like to flash these images

Not getting it from the OP

Currently on this ROM

Only want to know whether the ones which you had provided the link of latest images is of 6P or what?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Badger50:
You've never done this before!? Yet, your on this rom?...huh?? Look at the pic, it's from the OP. Download the rom. Then boot into TWRP, make a backup. Then wipe dalvik, cache, and system, like it says in the OP. Then flash the vendor, also linked in the OP, to the vendor partition. Then flash the Rom, reboot and enjoy.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] iaTa:
I selected the Pixel features in the installer on the latest update but the accent colour is still green.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] zeeshanalpha:
What about the bootloader and the radio can I dirtly flash them ? Rn which you provided ?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Badger50:
For bootloader and radio, you'll need to download the February factory image, and extract them. Then install them with fastboot. Then you can boot into TWRP and start your rom/vendor update.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] zeeshanalpha:
Thank you so much :)

Yeah, something's up with the vendor image and the rom uploaded yesterday. I'm getting a mismatch as well.

Last month's vendor image works perfect with the ROM upload from yesterday.

I've clean flashed the February updated custom rom and been playing with it for a few hours now.

Everything looks and works fine. Big thanks to [MENTION=823251]cile381[/MENTION] for the effort.

However, there's one nuisance that I don't think is limited to this rom but I do believe it is more sever on this custom rom.

When enabling night light, the UI suddenly becomes painfully slow and sluggish, especially the notification drawer and the google search bar. Has anyone else experienced such sluggishness?

Are there any know cures or workarounds for this except for not using it at all?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] mangusZen:

Stock version is still on January security patch. At least thats what it's saying in system.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Badger50:
Just an FYI if interested. Evidently the vendor mismatch is affecting a couple of angler roms that i've seen. The quick fix, so your on the February security patch is to twrp flash the vendor from the opm3 factory image. If anyone wants to do so. That is all :cool:
[Nexus 6P Android Development] cedric1918:
Very Very stupid question.

Just flashed the rom.

In instruction I see "clean isntalaltion required" what does it mean exactly ? wipe cache ? factory reset ?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] goonercoaster:
fastboot format userdata

or from recovery, wipe everything except internal storage
[Nexus 6P Android Development] cedric1918:
Ok so for every update we need to erase everything ?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] DanteGR:
It is recommended but not necessary in my opinion.

Haven't clean flashed since being on Oreo (8.0) and no problems at all so far.
