From what I remember in the past, you should not have busy box installed with magisk. I'm not sure if that's changed lately, but I remember having issues with busy box, magisk, and ithe safety net passing.

When I flashed magisk recently, I launched the app and made sure not to touch the busy box option. I've had no problems on my end so far. But I'm also not on 13.2 yet, which I'm wondering if it maybe has a bug?

I'm still on the beta 13
[Nexus 6P General] SGE_DEW:
On my 6p running DU busybox won't install however on my other 6p running the latest RR it's installed. The option to enable busybox in Magisk settings is no longer available. Both devices pass safety net but not all the time. Must be a bug.
[Nexus 6P General] spuri78:
Totally can notice the difference so thanks for sharing it. Btw, what are you doing with the mod in magisk 13.3 as I tried to flash it but it broke magisk. I guess have to wait for the dev to make it compatible for v13.3.
[Nexus 6P General] DEVILOPS 007:
Ainir and Dirac don't break safety net by James DSP does. James DSP made YouTube videos through my speakers sound really bad and robotic anyways so I'm alright not using it.
[Nexus 6P General] spuri78:
Oh ok. you sure? so they are working fine in v13.3? not for me as when I flashed the mods, magisk froze on me so had to uninstall and reinstall magisk.
[Nexus 6P General] seabro01:
I'm still using 13.2
[Nexus 6P General] leondestiny:
hey guys does the 6p turn itself off after getting too hot ?

i was watching alot of Youtube videos just now, and battery was at 14% ,at 15% i got a low battery notification.

i just swiped it, and after a minute it turned itself off, it was a complete shutdown though.

it did not show the 'shutting down' message , it just went pitch black.

i let it cool down now before i try to turn it back on.

the display got very very hot.
[Nexus 6P General] spuri78:
So am I but the safety net doesn't pass in 13.2.
[Nexus 6P General] seabro01:
Now using Ainur with B&O add on. Tested with all my headphones and it sounds quite a bit better than Ainur with Dirac add on.
[Nexus 6P General] DEVILOPS 007:
B&O?
[Nexus 6P General] seabro01:
Bang & Olufsen Ice power port.
[Nexus 6P General] DEVILOPS 007:
Oh yeah? So you like it more than Dirac? Is it a simple flash and use or is it like viper where there are different presets? Thanks
[Nexus 6P General] seabro01:
Yeah, I prefer B&O over Dirac which didn't sound as clear with certain headphones. Speakers also sound better. I just uninstalled Dirac and flashed B&O add on. The EQ app couldn't be ported, so it just comes with default preset. I did switch to SuperSU before flashing add on. Not sure if it works with latest Magisk.

O! They used to make hi end audio speakers back in the day....edit....*embarrassed* they still do! Just looked them up. I hadn't heard their name in a long while
[Nexus 6P General] DEVILOPS 007:
Could someone do me a favour and share the substratum folder with me, the one with the rescue zips in please. I don't have that folder for some reason. Thanks
[Nexus 6P General] Bobbaloo:
Rename to zip
[Nexus 6P General] DEVILOPS 007:
Thanks a lot. I didn't have a backup so this really saved me.:D

[Nexus 6P General] DEVILOPS 007:
I just tried switching to pa and it is the smoothest ROM ever! I'm not sure if this had any effect but I also got rid of upm and sdcardfs but so far it is running better than any room I've used.
[Nexus 6P General] Haris000:
how to install flash kernel with ghost pepper? can u pls guide me?

currently im using franco kernel and s.i.x rom
[Nexus 6P General] Badger50:
I run the same rom and kernel as you. If your using the EXKM app, just go to the CPU..governor options and apply the Ghostpepper profile. That'll give you a good idea if you like it or not. If you want to use Flash kernel, just dirty flash your rom to get back to stock kernel, then flash your new kernel :good:
[Nexus 6P General] Haris000:
Well I don't use the app :/ is there any other way to use the flash kernel with the ghost pepper profile? Im a heavy user so I hv poor battery life so I'm in need of a good solution. Or is there any other solution to hv a great battery life?
[Nexus 6P General] Badger50:
The EXKM app is definitely worth the money is you want to tweak your kernel. If your a heavy user, I'm afraid there is no magic bullet. Usage patterns vary greatly from user to user. What works for one, doesn't necessarily work for another. Sure you can tweak some things, but you can't control signal strength (huge factor) movement patterns in day to day life, especially if your active, heat, cold, bla...bla..bla. You get the idea. About all you can do in many cases is to have a charger and/or a battery pack nearby if you need it :good:
[Nexus 6P General] Haris000:
True ..anyways thanks a lot :)
[Nexus 6P General] SGE_DEW:
Is there an issue with Magisk and connecting to a VPN? I use ip vanish and can't connect and also see no severs. Can't set permission under apps because it's not highlighted

FORZA SGE
[Nexus 6P General] leondestiny:
currently on Saosp and i dont think i will switch to anything else anytime soon.

because it runs so well for me, no fc's no slow downs.

everything is simply fantastic so far.

been on it for 4 days.

btw. i had the audio mod sainur thingie flashed + some of its addon.

can i install V4A ontop of it?

the sainur thing is overrated, i dont hear any sound changes.

i much prefer v4a.
[Nexus 6P General] yoye_cros:
In the sainur thread, there is the addon "v4afx", which is compatible with ainur. You can also try flashing the addon JamesDSP, and tweak your sound with the JamesDSP app. I have Sainur + Dirac, and I don't heard any changes, but with JamesDSP I can heard differences.
[Nexus 6P General] leondestiny:
anyone here ever used otg cable , you can use the otg cable to watch any type of videos right?

i have some series i'd like to watch on my tv and my lg tv does not support the codec of the mkv files.

and the series is very large in size, my 6p is the 32gig model so i cannot fit in all of it and would not want to either.

so i was thinking about the otg cable thing, could i use it to hook it up with my hdd and play my videos from there on my phone ?

will the phone drain fast reading from the HDD ? it is a WD 1tb elements.
[Nexus 6P General] DEVILOPS 007:
It should work fine.
[Nexus 6P General] divineazn716:
I'm on the newest aquarios rom with full bean gapps, arise magnum, and Franco 54 and magisk 13.3. Everything is buttery smooth, I heard the stock kernel with newest build is great too, will update once I give it a whirl but I COC and CLASH ROYALE all the time and constant play still gives great battery for heavy users, phone does go up to 109 f at times. Fyi
[Nexus 6P General] DEVILOPS 007:
I used to use it and it was a great rom. It is definitely my third favourite. Carbon ROM comes in second and the only reason not 1st because it lags sometimes on browsers and 1st is pa because it is stupidly smooth and powerful with no lags. It doesn't have all the features of aquarios but definitely has more speed and smoothness which is what I prioritise.

---------- Post added at 09:44 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:07 AM ----------

What kernel do you guys prefer out of Franco and electron kernel? I want one that is still smooth but with great battery. Please don't tell me it depends on my usage as I'm asking you guys what your favourite is. Thanks.
[Nexus 6P General] leondestiny:
have you tried 7.2.2 ?

pa_angler-7.2.2-DEV-20170728 << this is 7.2.2

is 7.2.2 android o ?

never tried it, but it is not yet official right?
[Nexus 6P General] DEVILOPS 007:
What do you mean 7.2.2? The most recent version on their website is 7.2.1. Where did you find it?! And no, it won't be android o as Ron developers need the typical source for it which is why there aren't any custom ROMs on o for at least for a month or so.
[Nexus 6P General] leondestiny:
woops, i found that on androidfile host angler directory.

android o is close isnt it ?

i am so looking forward to it, glad we get the updates so quick !

even though the 6p is kind of almost 2 years old now ?

so it is true when they say google phones get updates quickest.

i hope this will be the case for at least another year or two.

because i do not plan on switching from my beloved 6p anytime soon !

(have only had my 6p for around 10months now i think.)
[Nexus 6P General] ApoelEllhnwn:
For me franco is the best kernel out there. My first phone was Sony Ericsson and my friend have Nexus 5. He told me that the Googles phones are the best have a lot of roms and kernels (franco kernel). From this day i want a Google phone and flash franco kernel becouse i saw that he phone just flying with the best battery life that he can got with Nexus 5.Then i buying the Nexus 6P (the best and last Nexus phone) and always flash franco kernel with any rom.

Just loves franco he is the best.??
[Nexus 6P General] DEVILOPS 007:
Awesome! Thanks for sharing your opinion. I tried out electron as it was made by the same developer as who was maintaining the rom I was using and had spectrum support but I prefer govtuner and also spectrum can be added to any kernel anyway now. I'll have to dirty flash and try Franco again. Do you his fkupdater app or something else as I have it installed but not sure if I should really use it or exkm.:)

---------- Post added at 11:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:39 AM ----------

Well they've had their last dev preview and last time I checked the code it seemed 99 percent done so I guess they're just waiting on getting it on the servers or something. It should be here within the first two weeks of august but could possibly be early September.
[Nexus 6P General] wgrant:
PA uses a different versioning number system. They're OS is on 7.2.2 but it is built off of 7.1.2 source.

[MENTION=7494055]DEVILOPS 007[/MENTION] eyy man , question !

i can't seem to get the series running swiftly on my phone with otg cable.

i bought one today and it recognizes my hdd just fine, and it plays the series that i can play on my lg tv just fine as well!

but, sadly some other series also mkv format , probably because of the codec cannot be played nicely..

i tried mx player , vlc ,now even media classic player , all of them struggle to play the series i have, there's a couple of series.

and all the videos i try , they play but they are slow..

is there a way to get them playing normally?
[Nexus 6P General] Bobbaloo:
1. HDMi cable and your windows machine or

2. Burn DVD's - I was watching a series couple of years ago, Mr Ed lol, used the same re-writable DVD over 50 times and that's no exaggeration.

- playing through the port means you need to have the phone showing vid also, kind of like mirroring? I used to do that with my note 2. Never did with this USB 'c' port. If it means keeping screen active and graphics going for the duration, I would refrain as I want this 6p to last a bit longer
[Nexus 6P General] leondestiny:
hey buddy, thanks for the reply.

i am using an otg cable type c with my 6p, anyways i tried mx player pro and it plays like 7 out of 9 of the shows i have tried now !

so that is better than nothing i guess?

but i would like to ask you whether this could be detrimental for my 6p ?

it does get warm after a while, so if i were to watch like 2-4 episodes ,that'd range between 50 minutes to 1 and a half hour of SoT while watching some show on my phone with my 1tb HDD , would this be bad for the phone itself?

i mean considering the mx player is also pushing the 6p to read all the codes from the mkv format and so on.

i remember playing videos on my ps3, even my ps3 struggled and the fan would get very loud etc.

sadly neither my ps4 nor my lg tv can play most of the shows i have, and i am too lazy to convert all of them.

so i can actually watch over half of them on my 6p with the otg cable, but am somewhat worried that it could affect the phone somehow?

if not, then i will keep using it i guess..
[Nexus 6P General] Bobbaloo:
IMHO, with all the problems plaguing this phone - some battery, some motherboard (?) Related, I figure why push it. It definitely uses resources unless you cast to the TV. What about that? A smart TV or Chromecast dongle. I use that sometimes. Last I checked, Chromecast sold for abt $35. EDIT: but not compatible with MKV, sorry
[Nexus 6P General] leondestiny:
most of my files are mkv format Q_Q

oh well, i do not know what to do..

and like you said the 6p does seem to hit alot of problems for some reason, especially those that own it for more than a year?

i have had mine for roughly 9 months now i believe, hmm and i defintely want it to last another year or two.

simply because i frikkin love this phone, i do notice it lagging abit when i hook up my 1tb hdd.

hmm, i think i will use the otg cable but for not more than an hour always..

i will test it out buddy, if i see the phone heating up too much after some 30 minutes, then i will defintely never again use the otg cable to play shows.
[Nexus 6P General] Bobbaloo:
Good luck :good: ?

---------- Post added at 02:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:56 PM ----------

EDIT: PS, you can convert the mkv's on Windows also. I've used free apps for that in the past
[Nexus 6P General] leondestiny:
yeah , there is a programm called allok.

but it converts the files so slowww.

do you happen to know of a program that converts fast?

i have not used any since like years.. so perhaps there is some good one now.
[Nexus 6P General] nicholasknicks:
Can someone please help me with how i can turn off the nav bar on PA

---------- Post added at 07:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:51 PM ----------

Which PA are you using? The official or unofficial
[Nexus 6P General] Bobbaloo:
Been years for me also. I have Winx HD video converter and video splitter, not sure if that one will work with mkv's. I remember speed being a big issue but, with planning maybe not so much -EDIT- Avidemux. I think I remember that changing the "mux" of the file and supposedly making it compatible. Quicker results but, I have NO IDEA what a mux is. I saw these guys mentioning it on 6p threads. Apparently, we have muxes on our phone. Lol. Look into it if you will
[Nexus 6P General] Bobbaloo:
Mux it
[Nexus 6P General] leondestiny:
thanks man ,will look into this!

btw. how did you make your clock size so huge? is it a rom function?
[Nexus 6P General] Bobbaloo:
Yes. crDroid. Me Like. Been on it about 2 months
[Nexus 6P General] leondestiny:
will flash now !! what kernel do you combo it with?
[Nexus 6P General] DEVILOPS 007:
Gotta ask what makes you use crdroid. Is the performance and battery better than other roms or are you on it more for the features.
[Nexus 6P General] Bobbaloo:
Features, including the much coveted slim recents. Battery is better than other similar feature laden roms, performance is great though I HAVE been using it lately with ElementalX.

---------- Post added at 07:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:46 PM ----------

ElementalX

---------- Post added at 07:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:47 PM ----------

PS: I was VERY surprised that I liked it as much as I do. Previously, I thought I wouldn't like a CM or Lineage based Rom on this phone so much
[Nexus 6P General] DEVILOPS 007:
Okay cool. Have you tried carbon or paranoid android recently because I prefer performance and battery over features. Also are there any known issues with the ROM like does substratum work as it is Los based and how often is it updated? I think I'll use Franco kernel on it if I try it out personally. Thanks
[Nexus 6P General] Bobbaloo:
Franco has always been too bland for my taste and slow. Also, no hi-brightness wiget. Issues? I don't think so. But with frequent updates, I haven't had a problem. Carbon no, because I have high priority for sRGB and slim recents. HEY I wanted to tell u, try the stock kernel for a bit, you may like it. Considering that it's not overclocked, it runs great. For better battery, I started kernel hopping and settled on EX with butterfly, modified a bit, of course, for better battery. My avg sot on THIS profile is 5+ hrs. I can't settle for slowness to attain good battery, EDIT- RESPECT for Franco, I DID buy and use the naptime app* AND the kernel is a great set it and forget it, excellent for many users

---------- Post added at 08:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:08 PM ----------

Regarding sRGB, I just had a thought, a brainstorm: I use that profile bc Android colors are too bright for me. I wonder if this is a contributing factor to my battery life
[Nexus 6P General] leondestiny:
i like sRGB as it sets the correct saturation amount etc.

but it makes my phone look abit pale and too green'ish.

and btw. i have used to otg cable last night and played some episodes, nearly an hour.

and my phone did not heat up at all, it was all normal.

not even warm, and i only lost about 20% of battery life.

so i guess , it should not be a problem , very happy about that.

but i hope the otg cables don't break too quick. (function wise)

because they are after all just some tiny cable.
[Nexus 6P General] Bobbaloo:

I'm checking out DP4; I'm liking it so far.....
[Nexus 6P General] millbean:
Root working on dp4 ?

---------- Post added at 08:02 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:48 AM ----------

Also what steps did you use in flashing? I'm very curious to try it it out
[Nexus 6P General] Mikey:
Root does work...

I installed it the old fashion long way....

Downloaded the DP4 system image zip...

Flashed, using fastboot commands..... system, vendor and boot. Booted the phone

Booted back into Bootloader flashed twrp, and ex kernel.

Booted phone, finally back to twrp, flashed magisk.

Installed them separately, so I can track if something didn't boot the phone.

You do have to wipe data off the sdcard as well, using this process. I had backed up sdcard onto my computer. I was time for a good full cleaning.
[Nexus 6P General] leondestiny:
hey guys, i now am looking for some Rom+Kernel(Profile) combo that will give me the speediest performance the 6p can give!

i need performance, battery life can be 3 H SoT idc about that anymore.

just help me with what i want below, and i hope it can be achieved somehow!

i need this really badly these days, as i use alot of twitter (the official app) and i mostly only use DM (direct messaging).

and my 6p becomes slow after a while and also hot.

please if anyone knows how to speed it up somewhat and also decrease the heat (perhaps some changes in the gpu section within exkm could help with this?)

hope someone can help me out with this, thank you.
[Nexus 6P General] Bobbaloo:
That was quick
[Nexus 6P General] Bryanx86:
PA is awesome smooth, maybe ElementalX kernel over clocked a little? And s.i.x. rom is always snappy and smooth.... nothing really new it seems until O images drop. Speeding up the CPU seems to always heat the phone tho, and more heat means faster battery reduction. Hard to push past it's hardware capabilities since it is a two year old phone, and it would be great if Google came out with a version 2 of the 6p, just something about this phone that makes it great.
[Nexus 6P General] DEVILOPS 007:
I'm also using pa. Any reason ex over Franco?
[Nexus 6P General] Bryanx86:
Well for trying to achieve performance over battery life, i would choose ex, and flr battery life i would say Franco. Flash is a good kernel too, bht i get better battery with ex over flash, with same performance it seems. Trying out hellscore right now, haven't used it long enough to compare....
[Nexus 6P General] leondestiny:
haha, i am not switching yet though.

i noticed great battery life on crdroid + elementalx kernel.

have not set any profiles, not using leandroid/naptime either.

so i am pleasantly surprised.

i say battery life is not an issue, but in the long run it heck of is an issue, i want my phone to last at least 5 hours with sot.

i will stay on it for now and try to decrease the values of the GPU settings, perhaps that will fix my heating issue with twitter.
[Nexus 6P General] Mikey:
So your phone heats up only while using Twitter?
[Nexus 6P General] leondestiny:
yea , and also when i browse too much on chrome.

sometimes it does not heat up at all though, it is quite strange.

but the lag is what bugs me more than the heat tbh.

my 6p rarely lags with anything, but it does lag at times with the twitter app and with chrome.
[Nexus 6P General] Bobbaloo:
I just applied what someone posted recently, sorry I don't recall who.

I/O scheduler. BFQ readahead at 2048. That should fix your lags
[Nexus 6P General] leondestiny:
thank you mate, i will defintely try this out !!
[Nexus 6P General] Bobbaloo:
:good: ?
[Nexus 6P General] Bobbaloo:
105°F. That's my CPU temp while looking at Twitter posts.....

Also, for lag - you can clear cache and Dalvik
[Nexus 6P General] guyderam:
Hi guys..... What's the top 5 roms for the 6p in your opinion? together with the kernel. Im talking basically feature wise and best battery life.
[Nexus 6P General] Badger50:
In no particular order..

PN

S.I.X Rom

Aquarius

Cortex

Nitrogen

Kernels.....

Franco

Ex

Flash

Kylo

However, always try the stock kernel first. Most of them are very good.
[Nexus 6P General] DEVILOPS 007:
I would say in no particular order.

Paranoid Android

Carbon ROM

AqauriOS

SIX ROM

crDroid

For kernels:

Franco

Electron

Kylo

Flash

Ex kernel
[Nexus 6P General] bkayy:
I would say paranoid, nitrogen, six rom, carbon, aospext and desolation which I am running now very fast rom great features
[Nexus 6P General] Kapak13:
No RR? Geeze :P
[Nexus 6P General] DEVILOPS 007:
It probably has more features than any rom out there but most are kind of wasted and unnecessary. Anyway, I prefer performance, stability and battery life over features any day which RR is not great for in these areas. RR was the first rom I used on my 6p but there were just many better rom's for someone who doesn't prioritise features and prioritises the more important parts of Android. That's just my opinion though.:)
[Nexus 6P General] leondestiny:
here are mine Chroma(really miss this one)/PN/RR/SAOSP/S.i.X (i will add 2 more they are among my favs) DU and AOSIP ,for kernels i mainly use these Flash kernel/kenvatore/elemental.

favourite mods (xposed r.i.p) Adaway / and killing all ads in some way on youtube/naptime/leandroid/substratum(theming is a must for me)./exkm/v4a.

few of those may be apps and not mods sorry, also i love the aosp keyboard. (shoo gboard)
[Nexus 6P General] Kapak13:
I was just giving you a hard time. It's all opinion based anyways haha to each their own! But I agree with you in a few ways
