Build cm-14.1-20161217-NIGHTLY-shamu.zip seems to be very troublesome. The device freezes or soft-reboots right after finishing the boot process.

edit: Previously I was on cm-14.1-20161215-NIGHTLY-shamu.zip and going back solved the boot issues.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] noemi.abril:
build cm-14.1-20161217-NIGHTLY-shamu.zip self-reboot and if it boot it say battery low.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] TeeHoang:
confirm.

I can definitely confirm this. The ''process system'' continuously forces close; the Setting apps also.

Problem with wifi connection; Google services.

I am confused on this encryption part. If I wipe my phone (currently stock N) and load Lineage will device still be encrypted? Can I disable with Lineage and keep it off easily?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] ktmom:
It's forced encrypted stock see post #10. You have to follow the advice an21281 gave in the post just before yours.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Mephisto_POA:
if I backup my encrypted phone using TWRP , should I be able to restore it when I apply the fed patcher so I can avoid having to reconfigure the phone from scratch once again?

---------- Post added at 09:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:13 PM ----------

patch installed, phone wiped in twrp, still encrypted, not sure what is wrong?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Mephisto_POA:
I had to manually wipe the data partition, using the advanced formatting for some reason was not doing the data.

Formated it, restarted the phone, checked no encryption, used twrp to restore data partition, still not encrypted and all my apps are exactly as before, widgets, settings

Google May security patch

Hi guys! :D

Google has released the May security patch for all the Nexus and Pixel devices and, in our case, we have to flash the bootloader, since there's a new version available:) The radio remains the same ;)

Can i have link please?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] razorloves:
As usual, elektroschmock or myself will post here and update the first post with bootloader and radio download links when lineage is updated to google's May security update. Stay on the ones in the first post. Those are for the current shamu lineage builds.

[MENTION=614507]razorloves[/MENTION] please update the blobs and the build of shamu to April and disable the force encryption that slows down the device and increase the cpu usage and battery consumption
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Elektroschmock:
Blobs and kernel are actually in line with the may security updates. Next build will be on friday.

ROM will stay force encrypted as per project policy.

If you don't like it, there are plenty of ways to disable it or build the ROM from source.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] veesix:
Actually, I was running unencrypted before, and I'm not seeing much difference.

[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] YamazakiRobert:
me too and my oneplus are not encrypted

at least we need to have option to choose if we want encrypted or no
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] espionage724:
If there's negligible battery/performance impact on encryption (which from what I've seen; there's no noticeable difference on or off), I don't see why there should be a toggle for it on official builds. Encryption is important.

You could always flash a custom kernel with forced encryption disabled and clean-install LOS; ElementalX and FrancoKernel are both popular and have forced encryption disabled.

Flashed the new bootloader (72.03) from here:

https://xdaforums.com/nexus-6/development/fxz-nexus-6-recovery-flashable-fastboot-t3066052

As usual it doesn't seem to really make any difference that I can see, but it works just fine.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Mephisto_POA:
It is a shame that it is enforced, I believe lots of people will get frustrated with the performance of the phone with lineageos like I did. Without encryption the phone works perfectly fine, put encryption in and feels like you have a low end phone from 3 years ago struggling to do the most basic things.

Anyway, at least we have a way to disable it manually which is great

---------- Post added at 08:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:27 PM ----------

try to multitask, open waze, then try to move between applications, or try to use google voice for a search while on android auto using google maps, it halts the thing for nearly 1 minute at times. Without encryption I get this done in 10 seconds.

The is a clear difference in performance if you are a heavy user. Multitasking with encryption is painfully slow

---------- Post added at 08:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:29 PM ----------

That is what I don't understand, why is oneplus not enforced to encrypt data? I flashed my GF oneplus and it is running like a charm coming from cyanogen.

---------- Post added at 08:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:31 PM ----------

Battery performance I can't say there is a difference. Performance wise there is, I can't really believe people are saying there is no difference. Yeah, encryption is great, for who needs it. I don't.

A while ago one of my clients required to force bitlocker on 4000 laptops, the CPUs don't have any hardware acceleration for encryption, the laptops had mechanical disks. It was a monumental failure, security that caused people to simply not use the laptops. What is the point?

Usability should be the first thing in mind, and security needs to work around it. If it is the other way around, you get 4000 people frustrated not using their laptops and an IT director looking like a ****. And what was most funny is, the nature of the business was not so sensitive to data leaks and all data was stored remotely, there was no data stored locally on these laptops!
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] razorloves:
Just a reminder for everyone...

The new LineageOS shamu nightly, that should be coming in about 10 hours, will be based on google's new monthly update N6F27C.

The changes were done a few days ago, as you can see here:

https://github.com/LineageOS/android/commit/fc78b86c1f7a829b9aae6678f6955cf81d153305

Device tree: https://github.com/LineageOS/androi...mmit/07999804c7bf5bc92841ef37a08a45e795eb8375

Kernel tree: https://github.com/LineageOS/androi...mmit/810cbea8b993f9f03d920bc968039cd1d61c561a

Proprietary binaries: https://github.com/TheMuppets/propr...mmit/43d0c430f25607f4493c92d3a208fb143616910b

The N6F27C build from google has a new bootloader img, but the radio img is the same as in last month's update. Here's a download link for the new bootloader so you can update it when you flash the new LineageOS nightly.

bootloader-shamu-moto-apq8084-72.03.img

I'll update the first post once the new nightly is available for download. :good:

EDIT: New nightly is on the download portal and first post updated.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
Downloaded, installed, and booted. Looks great!
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] orgert:
can i update los without updating bootoader ? will it do any harm , or is it just to have the newest one :confused:
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] angourakis:
Normally it doesn't cause any issues. But, the dev told us to update the bootloader and even made it available separately so we don't have to flash the entire factory image.

Updating it takes just a few seconds. Why doing otherwise?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] orgert:
cuz i have limited access to a pc right now , is it ok ta flash the bootloader img with twrp ? (never tried it before )

No actually your issue is you never clean flash...

Everything you describe as a "reason encryption sucks" is actually leftover data your phone has to sift thru to give you answers...

And since you're gonna have to wipe your internal storage... Why not use titanium backup... Clean flash... And see the difference before you pass judgement

Nexus 6 Battery Drain 5/5 build

Hi everyone. Just jumped into the world of rooting and custom ROMs and stuff and was going great for a while. I installed the 4/28 Lineage OS on my nexus 6 and was loving it. Phone was much faster and battery life improved by at least 20%. However after trying to OTA update to the new 5/5 build I ran into a lot of issues. Finally got the new build on my phone but now my battery life is abysmal. Like 20% lost in less than an hour. Here is everything I have done to date. If anyone can see what I did wrong and maybe a potential fix I would greatly appreciate it.

Rooted, installed TWRP 3.0.2-0, flashed Lineage 4/28 along with Micro Gapps

Attempted to auto update. After many failures (kept failing to install manually from the directory in TWRP) I restored my nougat 7.1.1 backup, then installed the new build along with Gapps again. Phone works now but as stated horrendous battery life

Is it because I installed Gapps twice possibly? I fear I incorrectly assumed that restoring my phone would remove Gapps as well so now maybe Gapps is running twice? I am new to this so I am honestly not sure. Again, any help is appreciated. Thanks! Hope everyone else is having a better experience
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] ktmom:
No, installing gapps twice doesn't break anything. Go to you battery stats (settings -> battery) and see if you are having a large Bluetooth drain. It's not an uncommon problem. There are a variety of different fixes people have posted saying it fixes for them. Just google "N6 Bluetooth battery drain". Else, you might try resetting the battery logs; reboot to the bootloader -> use volume buttons to scroll to bootloader logs -> press the power button until the phone reboots (typically 7-10 seconds). Charge the battery until full.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Jsshrum:
No bluetooth issues here. Did your other tip about resetting the logs. Battery life still isn't as good as it was before but it does seem to have improved somewhat. So thank you very much for the tip!
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] jayadev01:
Use the latest twrp 3.1.0.0 and do a clean flash.

Wipe System... Cache... Dalvik Cache, Data and then flash the Rom along with Beans gapps.

You should be out of your problems :svetius:
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] githyanki:
He is recomending you use the gapps from this thread:

https://xdaforums.com/nexus-6/development/rom-pure-nexus-project-t3148214

Jaya, why those gapps? Any reason you like them better than open gapps?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] jayadev01:
No specific reason sir, just read the OP this morning and it is mentioned that Beans gapps is the recommended one. Here is the screenshot of OP of this thread.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] githyanki:
OK, I was going by the Lineage site that says to use Open Gapps. I didn't realize the thread said something different.

[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] razorloves:

[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] kirby22:
Just flashed lineage on my phone and it's working great. One thing I've noticed is that SELinux is set to permissive, is this expected from a fresh flash?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Elektroschmock:
No it's not expected. Are you using a custom kernel?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] kirby22:
Nope. Flashed LineageOS and Beans mini gapps, no other mods whatsoever.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Mephisto_POA:
What do you mean never clean flashed? I wiped my system and storage completely as also cache partitions. This was required when I moved away from vanilla os to a couple of other roms, am I missing something here?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] ProBird79:
Thanks a ton! I thought my post was never seen or acknowledged. Now it doesn't force close. :)

I do however have the stuttering video as before. On some channels it doesn't stutter but on others it does. I know the difference between the broadcasts have different resolution, data rate, bitrate, frame rate, and audio bitrate.

Stutter

:

Resolution: 1920x1080

Data Rate: 24000 kbps

Total Bitrate: 24384 kbps

Frame Rate: 29 fps

Audio Bitrate: 384 kbps

Channels: 6

Audio Sample Rate: 48 kHz

No Stutter

:

Resolution: 1280x720

Data Rate: 38800 kbps & 14150 kbps

Total Bitrate: 39248 kbps & 14598 kbps

Frame Rate: 59 fps

Audio Bitrate: 448 kbps

Channels: 6

Audio Sample Rate: 48 kHz

I don't know if it's a codec issue or not. As I previously stated I didn't have issues on other non-Lineage based ROM's and I don't have this issue on my Nexus 5 running Lineage. Attached is the log so hopefully it will give you some good information about what is going on.

Edit: I was wrong, it is also a problem on my N5. I don't know if I'm misremembering now or an update caused it.

[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] BootloopedMillennials:
Has anyone on Project Fi been experiencing issues for the last 3 builds or so? My Nexus 6 on latest LineageOS, latest radio, latest bootloader (at times of specific builds) cannot keep a LTE signal anymore. This is happening in areas I should have and have had great signal before. It straight loses LTE/data and never gets it back.

---------- Post added at 03:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:48 PM ----------

I want to say it has something to do with the network switching. It seems like when it switches networks it never connects to the new network or even the old network. Did the LineageOS devs change the APNs or something? I can't find it under cellular network settings.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] githyanki:
Fi doesn't allow you to edit or view the APN, AFAIK.

Have you updated the radio?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] BootloopedMillennials:
Yep I've updated the radio. It didn't fix it. I've even tried going back down to older radios.

A reboot gets back LTE/data but within a minute or so it's gone. Airplane mode won't even fix it temporary. Tried pulling the SIM and reinserting. Wiping the data from the Project FI app.

I'm stumped.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] ktmom:
I dnt know if this will help on Fi, but it can't hurt. Get "Change APN" from the play store. Once installed launch it. Probably there will be nothing listed. Hit the 3-dot menu and "reset to default".

If that gives you your network back again, then that's why I have been staying on pure nexus. I'm not on Fi, but Sprint, and I've had these types of problems since I first got my N6.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] BootloopedMillennials:
Ironic Sprint network is the only one getting me any LTE/data. So long as I force it to only that network using an app like Signal Spy. It makes no sense, I'm located in a very strong Tmobile area (well stronger than Sprint). My coworkers Nexus 6P on Project Fi is using the Tmobile network and has full bars. Tmobile and U.S. Cellular APNs have got to be corrupted.

Ill give the app a run. Then I guess flashing pure nexus or back to stock to rule out anything.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] IceKreem:
I've noticed in the latest nightly that using my phone is unrooting itself. Just thought I would point that out.

Anyone else experience the same thing?

Edit: Forgot to mention it was rooted with Magisk. The fix is not to use Magisk Busybox.

lineage is encrypted by default, so if you are encrypted u wont need to do anything , if you arent and want to stay decrypted , u will need to flash a custom kernel as i know , but i strongly recomend to just flash the rom as its described in OP,

[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] mobitote:
Let go through the steps as per OP.

1.Do you have the latest twrp installed?

If not install that. First!

Follow twrp install instructions on their webpage. They got a list of ways you go about it.

2. Do you have the latest radio and bootloader?

Again, if not; install those. If not show how to install google should be your friend or look it up here on XDA.

3. Download ROM through the updater.

4. If you are coming from cm 13/cm14 you will have to boot into recovery and do a fresh install. If not go into the updater and install from there.

This part is probably where you are messing up. Cm14 is "different" from Lineage in how and where the updater stores its ROMs.

If you got more ?s ask away. I will gladly help you ... We were all n00bies at some point plus things kinder evolved rapidly with lineage after cm shut down.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Oxicottin:
Ok maybe i explained this wrong in the beginning. I installed Lineage from a fully stock rom so im a virgin again because its been years since i did this. Now, I installed the rom, gaps and super user and everything booted up fine and installed great no problems. I did however have some Lineage update that showed up in my nav bar so I download. When it finished it asked me to restart so i did. Next the screen that came up was black with a little Android guy and it says error below it so i has to power down to restart. I tried again by going to settings/About Phone/lineageOS updates and installing the may 19 update again but its doing it again over and over.

Thanks
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] mobitote:
Lol.... That in recovery. Your twrp got written over. It didn't stick. Try reinstalling twrp, and boot from there to system see if you can get to lineage bootup
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Oxicottin:
Ok I reinstalled TWRP and now it boots into TWRP instead of the error screen like before but now where is the update located? I didnt see anything in a folder called Lineage_Downloader. Thanks
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] ktmom:
Now that you're booted into TWRP, just boot into system from there.

If that doesn't work for you, go to the first post, download a new copy of lineage on a PC, copy it over to your device and flash it from inside TWRP.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] githyanki:
I had the same thing happen to me on the first boot. Lineage said there's an update, but the version was the same as what I had just installed.

It is safe to ignore the first "update" that it tells you about.

BTW, updates that are downloaded through the Updater are stored in /data/org.lineageos.updater/app_updates/

Ok I dug more into the settings and guess I missed it previously.
