I don't think you need 3.0.3. Just don't use 3.0.2-0 or older, like the op says. But you might as well use 3.0.3. It won't hurt anything, and seems to be a bit better. As for features, Lineage OS 14.1 is almost identical to cm14.1. It just has a different name and boot logo. Give it a try. Make sure you have a backup, in case you decide you want to revert to your current OS for some reason.

[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] donmc:
Runs smoothly for the most part, here are the 2 issues I've noticed most.

The included camera app works at first but then will stop writing to storage. The shutter animation occurs but the picture isn't saved, or if taking video, it will indicate it's recording showing the time ticking, but not actually record. The Google camera app acts as it did on CyanogenMod 13, begins to lag and freeze after a minute of having it open.

Second, since installing lineage Android auto has had an issue with disconnecting from the system. Everything is working and then once I disconnect USB from the head unit my screen won't wake. I enabled screen wake on plug/unplug which after a delay the screen wakes but if I don't unlock before it goes to sleep, it will fail to rewake unless I force a reboot. I added my head units Bluetooth profile to smart lock to see if that helps.

Sorry for the long winded post, wanted to be specific though.

Overall I'm excited to see lineage so fast, been using cyanogen for a long time and was worried (albeit briefly) that I'd have to spend a ton of time trying to find a good replacement.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
There's a 20170104 set of builds online! Just finished downloading the unofficial version. Will install and get back to the group....

It installed just fine. Everything looks good so far. I did get the "Google connectivity services unexpectedly quit" (or something like that) message. I've been getting that for weeks now, so it's not unique to Lineage OS. I just ignore it, and it doesn't seem to actually affect anything (knock on wood).

[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] EasyDeath:
The 2017 1 2 nightly seems to have very bad battery, today I'll try to dirty flash the 2017 1 4 to see if gets better.

Also, apart dirty flash, there are other methods to flash without losing data and apps configuration?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Elektroschmock:
You can always relock your bootloader if you want to.

Nobody forces you to anything. It's just the way LineageOS is and will be. You can choose to use another ROM, or disable forceencryption.

https://github.com/LineageOS/charter/blob/master/device-support-requirements.md

=> All devices that shipped stock as forceencrypt SHOULD default to forceencrypt enabled.

So as long as nobody provides a proof that encryption has a significant influence on performance or battery I have no intention to deviate from this rule

Unfortunately no, as hardware_qcom_gps is a mess.

Yes it will be removed, and we'll have an SU addon package and a package to remove SU. I did it just because I din't want magisk or superSU mess with my system.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] gettes:
May I ask... Is the auto-root magisk or other?

Update: it's magisk 16. Thanks.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] wrsg:
Why would anyone *not* want to encrypt in this day and age? Even if there was a performance impact (there isn't), I would still want to encrypt any device I use.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Dungeon47:
Did you restore apps with TiBU?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] MARINERMOOSE241:
No I don't use Titanium Backup at all. I just flash clean build's with gapps, boot and restore from a Google Cloud backup.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] quizzina:
Which kind of gapps should I install with this Beta 2?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] NewDayRising:
I'm with you on this. I get that an unlocked bootloader may be a risk if the device is out of your hands, but if that happens, all bets are off anyway, locked bootloader or not.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] qtvvtx:
Flash a custom kernel before reboot. When that doesn't work. Install root,

As far as I know SU or Magisk will patch the kernel.

[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] mobitote:
Not to rude or anything, you've been told time and time again LOS come with certain parameters preordained. If you don't like it build your own ROM and set your terms. After all this is an aftermarket ROM. Devs chose this path choose your own path. Its the beauty of android. You don't like a feature fix it. Otherwise quit getting in the way of people trying to follow the dev of LOS.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] toto-w:
Sorry, but I didn't know (and didn't expect) that a custom ROM like LOS will force encryption of the phone instead of kinda unchaining it. I never installed an official version so I was a little upset when I first read it.

In the meantime (thanks to [MENTION=4293041]athulele[/MENTION]) I found an easy solution for that. (FED-Patcher) IMHO the pure existence of that thread is an evidence for a demand of unencryted phones. And just if you give people the freedom to decide, nobody is forced to use his phone unencrypted.

I apologize for being so rude. I know that the devs were not paid for what they do and that they are doing their great job in their spare time.

Nexus 6 mit Android 5.0: Verschlüsselung bremst Leistung massiv

It seems to be an Nexus 6 issue with the Snapdragon 805.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] def1003:
wrong thread...
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] NLBeev:
Has nothing to do with stock. Writing data unencrypted on a Nexus 6 is twice faster.

A full nandroid backup:

unencrypted: 140 seconds,

encrypted: more than 300 seconds.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] moso11:
So I installed LOS 15.1 beta 2.

Coming from NitrogenOS, my phone was unencrypted.

During the first boot after installing LOS, the phone encrypted itself.

But now, whenever I try to decrypt data in TWRP, it asks for password. But I didn't input any password while it was encrypting.

What password should I input to decrypt data in TWRP?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] umpireflux:
Try 0000?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
I didn't see any clear answer, but there's some info on the web that suggests the default encryption password is "default_password". Give that a try and let us know if it works.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] K5LK:
Works very smooth, thanks for the awesome work!
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] moso11:
Tried. Still unable to decrypt.

Tried. Still unable to decrypt.

Should I wipe data and reinstall the ROM?

TWRP log suggests to wipe data.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] king:
Yes wipe the data and flash elementalx kernel along the rom if u don't want forceencryption
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Elektroschmock:
Noooooo!

Don't recommend nonesense like this! Oreo ROMs are not a mix an match. We need a kernel which mounts the system partition early for faster boot.

If the kernel doesn't mount system you'll end up with a not working ROM

I have a quick question. Right now i'm on the bootloader version moto-apq8084-72.03 but I was wonder if I flashed moto-apq8084-72.04, will I still be able to lock my bootloader with TWRP and LineageOS installed? I keep hearing people talk about how you can't have a locked bootloader with LineageOS installed but I personally don't have any issues.

I am on PureNexus 6.0.1 with SuperSU installed as a system app. Any tips on moving to Lineage and Magisk would be much appreciated. I am also on Verizon.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] ktmom:
Back up your user data partition. Fastboot flash the newest Google factory image for shamu. Instructions are on that same page. This will make sure your device has the newest bootloader. I would then boot to the stock ROM and make sure everything works ok. Then install the newest TWRP recovery. Make sure to reboot to recovery to be able to prevent the stock recovery from overwriting the new TWRP. Boot an be sure everything works again. Then flash lineage and Magisk.

[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] paxonus:

[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] kraehetest:
Download an OpenGapps package from 1st march or older. Maybe the Aroma Package, then you can flash the dialer.

Update: OpenGapps 5th. March also working fine. 3rd and 4th March have no Dialer inside.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] SolidSTI:
In the beta 2 is anyone else getting "invalid update channel" on the included Magisk?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Elektroschmock:
There is no thing like 'included Magisk'
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] SolidSTI:
Ok, the v16 addon included with this rom.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Elektroschmock:
I have no idea what you are talking about. If there is magisk included in the ROM you are using then it's not LineageOS.

I just did a clean install a couple days ago. My brother sent me and my sister a video via text and it showed up as a .jpg and an audio file.. My sister received it as a video file. We both have the same phone - only difference being she is running stock. Anyone know what's up with that? Is there a common fix?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] SolidSTI:
Which messaging client?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] ironmannFB3:
I tried it with both the LOS stock Messaging app and with Android Messages. Same result on both.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] ExpertMC:
I know that kernels are a message with ROMs on Oreo and so I want to keep the stock kernel when I upgrade to 15.1, but the only thing I want is to disable throttling under 40%. Does the stock kernel in 15.1 have throttling? I know ElementalX does this, but I don't know about compatibility.

Edit:By stock I mean the kernel that comes with Lineage 15.1
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Dhalsim43:
With Lineage OS, you can force performance mode in battery settings.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Elektroschmock:
It's not possible to keep the stock kernel as its missing a lot of functions needed for Oreo.

I'm not sure which version you are commenting on, but I run LOS 14.1 latest.

I used my iPhone and sent a brief video. No problem receiving and playing at all.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] ironmannFB3:
I am running 14.1 also. If you can receive and play it fine... where do I even begin to resolve this? I did update my radio with the recommended Verizon radio provided in the OP, so I can rule that out.

Pattern/PIN (except None/Swipe) lock doesn't work for me, phone crash. Only thing that helps is factory reset. LOS 15.1 Beta 2 + Open Gapps 8.1 ARM Pico. :S
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] abnormalreply:
Do you guys get any wonky behavior with the Netflix app in LOS 15.1 builds? Newer versions (5+) seem to crash on launch. Older versions (=<4.5) bogs down the device really badly when casting to Chromecast. 4.6.0 seems to be the sweet spot where I don't get those issues.

Just wondering if this is a root thing, LOS thing, or Oreo thing. (Using my own LOS build.)

I'm using Open Gapps 8.1 Nano.

[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] tony20z:
There should be an option in settings to encrypt the phone, according to the thread you linked. Not sure if you can just toggle it off after if you don't like it.

Otherwise I guess you have to flash an encrypted ROM again, and then redo the unencryption flash when you're done testing.

[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] toto-w:
The crash has no trigger. It happens randomly. Sometimes while using the phone sometimes while just charging.

As malloc is the function that crashed it seems to be an issue with allocating and freeing memory. Since higher languages do this stuff automatically it seems to be a problem with code written in C. Maybe a device driver or so.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:

No dear.. there must be something, u r saying it crashes on its own, sometime while sleeping sometime while using, thats correct, but the problem is the thing which triggering the reboots is not the thing used by you.. it getting used by the system itself, when system trying to access the stuff its turning off the system.
