User profile image, set via 'Settings -> Users -> You'. Sorry, I cannot think of a simpler way to describe that section of settings and how to get to it.

I'm a little confused by your confusion, did you think I was asking how to change a quick-settings tile icon?

Edit: I replied before I had seen that you'd edited / updated yours. :)
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] nilesh0205:
Thanks,

Why I am asking is that Miracast does not need you to be on same wi-fi network, it uses the wi-fi direct. And I tried but it does not cast to tv from my Shamu. But the TV dealer when purchasing was able to show me cast to tv through his non-google mobile. And I searched for Miracast with Shamu and found out that it was disabled by Google from version 6.0.

Thanks,

Nilesh

Dirty flashed from Beta 2 to this. Bluetooth does work, but periodically crashes for me. It can be toggled back on and will work for a while longer. It tends to crash intermittently on connection. Be it my watch or car head unit.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
Well, darn! Sorry to hear it. But thanks for the clarification
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Unfairkickazz93:
So I just made the switch from purenexus last week and Everytime it reboots it goes to the unlock screen with the pattern input really small. I can manage to get it but it takes along time haha. Is this a known issue? Is there an easy fix?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] mrk2815:
so is there a 15.1 beta based off of 8.1 or we will see that in official builds of lineage. just wondering.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
No 15.1 beta yet. There was a recent article from LineageOS saying the next official release would be 15.1

See: https://www.lineageos.org/Changelog-15/
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
So, I just tested with my little projector, and it's not connected to my wifi at all. But I can cast from my phone directly to my projector. The projector shows up on my phone as one of the devices I can cast to. You might try looking at the configuration on your TV. My little projector has options for iso/Mac, Android, and Windows. Also, on the phone, under Settings > Connected devices > Cast > options (the 3 vertical dots in the upper right of your screen), you might try turning on "Enable wireless display"

PS: those settings are for 15.0. On 14.1, you go to Settings > Display > Cast to Enable wireless display
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] nilesh0205:
Thanks, Will try that. I wanted to know if that can be done through LOS before I flash. I am on stock now.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
I just rebooted my phone to 14.1, and I can't get it to cast to the projector. So, it may only work in 15.0. I'll play around a bit more and let you know....

Nope: from 14.1, the phone couldn't even find the projector. So, it looks like if you want to cast to non-chromecast devices, you need to install 15.0. Not that that's a bad thing. I'm really liking 15.0. And I've heard that 15.1 is supposed to be even better.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] ChosenHero4:
How has your battery life been? I average about 3 hours and 50 minutes screen on time with 14.1 and when I tried 15 I only got about 3 hours 20 minutes. Have you had a similar loss in screen on time?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
I don't know. I never paid much attention to screen on time. But overall battery life seems slightly better. Generally, though, the battery appears to have deteriorated over the last year or so. Seems like I used to have 60 or 70% left after a day of use. Now I'm lucky to have 40%. I should probably start thinking about a new phone... maybe in another year or two :)

PS: the last few days, I've been so busy switching back and forth between 14.1 and 15.0, with all the consequent backing up and restoring and rebooting, that my battery life has been abysmal. I've been recharging 2 or 3 times a day to keep the battery above 30%, which seems to be the magic level where the phone starts to act weird and do spontaneous shutdowns, which I don't like at all :(
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] BootloopedMillennials:
I purchased a brand new Pixel-2016 model on eBay for 400. Not to take away from the Nexus 6 but the Pixel is such a great all-around phone. Excellent value at this price.

My Nexus 6 is still getting used though.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
Just installed the latest 14.1 zip (20171222). Looked pretty nice. But i didn't stick around long enough to give it more than about 5 minutes of testing, and then back to 15.0. Definitely giving the backup and restore and battery a good workout today :)
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] ziddey:
Looks like this issue exists for shamu as well: https://jira.lineageos.org/browse/BUGBASH-780

Anyone have a solution other than deleting CDMA 0?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
Hmm, I'm pretty sure I've recently taken a bus that went from an LTE area to a 3G area to LTE and the phone has automatically switched down and then back up again. I was running 15.0 last time I did this, but have done it on 14.1 in the past. On the other hand, it's quite possible that I've just forgotten. Has anyone experienced this bug on their shamu?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] veesix:
I'm on 14.1, haven't tried 15.0 yet, and haven't had this issue yet. Switching from 3G to LTE is flawless for me.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] ziddey:
You guys are both on Sprint? Fwiw, I was having this issue on nitrogenos 8.1 as well, as were other users. The apn switches to cdma 0 when connected to cdma but doesn't switch back to internet n.ispsn when reconnecting to lte.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] mrk2815:
shamu got its weekly update .now shamu has december security patch on 14.1.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Unfairkickazz93:
So I just made the switch from purenexus last week and Everytime it reboots it goes to the unlock screen with the pattern input really small. I can manage to get it but it takes along time haha. Is this a known issue? Is there an easy fix?:confused:
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] mezerr:
Hmm. Never seen this. Could it be a launcher thing? Did you install a different launcher? Try downloading the pixel launcher from apkmirror
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
I wouldn't be surprised if it's a Sprint issue. I'm on Verizon and don't think I've ever seen the problem. Veesix, who's your provider?

PS: I mean, we talk about 3G and LTE, as if we knew what we were talking about, because there's a little icon that tells us. But I bet there's a LOT of difference between what Sprint calls LTE and what Verizon calls LTE

PPS: and I wouldn't be at all surprised if there's a difference between what Verizon calls LTE in Seattle and what they call LTE in Peoria :)

PPPS: and, thanks to Trump and the FCC's lovely new Net-Non-Neutrality, those differences are just going to get more and more different
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Pat76:
I'm on sprint(lineage 14.1) and I had this problem a few times recently. I lost mobile data completely. Never had this problem before but I only been on lineage a month. I didn't know what do when it happened, I thought the sprint tower in my area went down. Resetting the phone, airplane mode switching didn't help. I found the apn settings that was set on CDMA 0.I set it back to default and mobile data came back. Coming from pure nexus rom not use to having to mess with those settings.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] ktmom:
I had these problems on sprint using cm based ROMs. Then switched to PN and didn't have any problems. Now on T-Mobile and haven't experienced any problems now that I've moved on to lineage based ROMs.

Back when I was trying to get some stability for data, what helped me the most was deactivating/removing google connectivity services and project fi immediately after a clean flash.

Hi All,

I need some help..

Recently installed Lineage 14.1 on my Nexus 6,along with Beans Gapps. All working well apart from I am unable to pair the phone with my Sony SMARTWATCH 3 via Bluetooth. I've tried everything!

Can anyone please help me out?

Thanks in advance

[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Unfairkickazz93:
It's not the launcher. I have the pixel launcher already. It only happens on the unlock screen when it is hallway through booting up (extra security).
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] mohsinriaz:
The lastest update (dec22nd) messed up my Netflix :( I can hear sounds and subtitles but no video.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
google the old 4.6.0 apk and install it. that works very well, at least on lineage 15.0
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] mohsinriaz:
thanks so much. Those older versions don't have the download option for Netflix content:/. I'll try with a fresh install first. If doenst help then I'll have to move to another rom :( Netflix is important to me. My daily before bedtime routine :(

UPDATE: FRESH CLEAN INSTALL FIXED THE ISSUE. GOOD THING I CAN STILL USE THE MOST STABLE AND SMOOTH ROM.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
Yay! Glad that fixed it for you. Are you on 14.1 or 15.0?

And yeah, before bedtime Netflix for me too! But I always watch discs on a big screen

Which gapps to use with latest LOS15 beta?

Oh I forgot OpenGapps has 8.0 gapps.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] nick491:
I'm looking forward to 8.1 for shamu. Is there any possible way to incorporate WireGuard into the ROM? Right now I'm using LineageOS 15 from 12-11-2017. Can't seem to get contacts to merge over to Google Contacts.

I finally figured out how to use Substratum. Man this all black substratum is awesome. I got a copy (when it was free for a little while) https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=substratum.piereligio.bst and really like that.

I installed a substratum overlay called Dirty to change the boot animation.

Please, keep up the amazing work. I haven't tried any other shamu ROM's other than this LineageOS and crDroid which seems to have been dropped by the wayside. I really liked crDroid for all of the extra options and tools like network monitoring in the navbar and the ability to toggle network disables (without having to install AFWall+ which really doesn't work for me).

I'm still obviously having problems with contacts and the occasional dropped cell signal during a call. I flashed the most current Radio but calls still drop but much less of a time dropping now.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Fred Simm:
I've searched, and I'm new to this phone, but has anyone found a good way to stop or help reduce navbar burn in? I did find a setting in the display section, not sure it works.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] nick491:
I think that's a feature with android 8.1.

I don't think there is a public beta for LineagesOS 15.1 which has 8.1
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] BootloopedMillennials:
Extended desktop? It hides both the nav and status bar.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] razorloves:
there was a mistake discovered in the burnin protection code recently, so it probably wasn't working before the last nightly. but that was fixed. https://review.lineageos.org/199287

so make sure you're on the newest nightly (20171222) so that you have that fix.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Fred Simm:
I've tried a custom navbar app. It crashed some important apps. I had to clean flash to fix it.

---------- Post added at 06:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:47 PM ----------

It's mainly the navbar that's burning in. Solid black most of the time when web surfing.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] BootloopedMillennials:
No you don't need an extra app. In LineageOS settings-desktop settings-there's an option called Extended desktop that can do that. You can chose to hide either the nav bar or the status bar or both. Either per app or the whole system.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Fred Simm:
Wow, thanks, that's the answer I needed. Probably others needed also.

---------- Post added at 08:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:16 PM ----------

Torque app doesn't like the extended desktop, but it doesn't crash. When I exclude it, it doesn't respond to the settings. It works, that's what I need.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Fred Simm:
You guys are awesome. Next question. Can I remove search bar from home screen? Currently using google now launcher and not wanting to change.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
I don't understand what you're asking. You should be able to install google launcher on lineage os. But I don't know. I've always used nova launcher, and it's got a setting to get rid of the search bar on the home screen. Maybe the word "launcher" means something different for google. I've always thought of the launcher as almost synonymous with the home screen. I mean, I know it does a lot more than that, but the home screen is one of the main things I use nova to manage.

PS: I see that google launcher is going away in February, to be replaced by pixel launcher.

PPS: I just started the default lineage os launcher, trebuchet, and it doesn't have a search bar on the home screen, at least not that I saw. So, what is it you're asking?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Fred Simm:
I like and use the google now launcher. The search bar is glued to the home screen, and so far I can't remove it. I thought maybe in lineage there was a setting to disable and remove it.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] BootloopedMillennials:
I haven't used Google Now launcher in ages, using the more current Pixel launcher. Anyway can't remove it on the Pixel launcher, so I doubt it's removable on Google Now launcher.

FYI Nova Launcher Prime is on sale for 0.99 cents.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
just now installed the 20171229 lineage os 14.1. looks good so far!
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Genghis1227:
Do you notice that setting around 60% battery life that the phone drags significantly?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
Hmmm, do you mean that when the battery level gets down to 60% the phone seems slow? If that is what you mean, no, I hadn't noticed that. But mostly I've been using the 15.0 beta, so I haven't spent much time on 14.1 lately, certainly not enough to get the battery level down to 60%
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Genghis1227:
Yeah I'm on the beta too and when the battery gets to 60% it is almost unusable.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
Oh, really? No, I don't get that at all. Any particular apps you notice that in? Or is it something that happens all the time, with all apps? Or...?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Genghis1227:
All around, hangouts and especially when trying to use the camera.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
No, for me 15.0 seems generally quicker than 14.1. I never use hangouts, so I can't speak to that, but the camera seems faster in oreo than it did in nougat
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Genghis1227:
It does at full charge, but when the battery is low it gets bad. Oh well, I'm getting a new phone next week! This will go to the kids...
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Genghis1227:
Does your OK Google Assistant trigger when the screen is off? I can't get it to work on LOS15
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
No, it doesn't. But I haven't tried, either. I don't use ok google much at all.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] mrk2815:
no ok google now does not work when screen is off on lineage 14.1 either.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] SteveYoungs:
Not so. It works fine work the screen off. However, if the screen is also locked you won't be able to perform any commands, but the assistant will wake and cause the pin or pattern pad to display.

If you want to be able to use Google Assistant when your screen is off simply do not lock your phone. In my experience, though, you probably don't want to do this because GA has a habit of triggering when you don't want it to (can lead to all kinds of heartbreak, hilarity, and annoyance).
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] razorloves:
That's what trusted voice is for

EDIT: correction. As stated in the post below, it's not available on the nexus 6.

https://support.google.com/nexus/answer/6093922
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] SteveYoungs:
Trusted voice is a server side setting that was never available for shamu. Never going to be.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Dhalsim43:
When I add a key code button with it's icon to customise the navbar, the icon is lost after a reboot but the invisible button still works !

Preset additional buttons (like search button) does not disappear after reboot.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] SteveYoungs:
After a full day with 14.1-20171229 I'm happy to report that it is running great. I'm still continually losing the user avatar¹, but that's not a new issue and doesn't really affect anything apart from vanity. :)

Installed the latest 14.1 nightly, but suddenly I'm tripping safetynet in magisk. Anyone know what to do?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] torecdude:
What Magisk version are you using? I'm using version 15.1 with the latest nightly and I'm passing SafetyNet
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] jbaumert:
Version 20171229 / Magisk 15.1 and SafetyNet check is working fine here...
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
This morning when my phone battery got down to 60%, I tried to use the camera, and the low battery warning came on for a second, then it switched to "Shutting down". So, it looks to me like there is some weirdness going on with the camera when the battery hits 60%
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Genghis1227:
Just a hunch but I think it is how the kernel tries to conserve battery by either changing CPU core speed or shutting cores down.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] BootloopedMillennials:
How often do you let your battery get below 60%? Has it ever random shutdown like that before under 60%? Try Google Maps, assuming it's installed on your phone. Or any app that is resource heavy.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Genghis1227:
Mine around that percent gets really slow. Pretty much all apps not just a single app. The OS slows down. When I'm out and about it gets to 60%.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] BootloopedMillennials:
I saw your other post. Mine doesn't shut down cores at 60% or get really slow. I checked yesterday when mine was at 52%. Don't know what to tell ya.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Genghis1227:
[emoji52]
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
Now that I think about it, it seems like that's happened before, and almost always when I turn on the camera. Normally I'll let the battery percentage get down to 30 or 40% before I plug it in to recharge. And I can use maps or watch youtube videos or update apps without any problem. But the camera, just the standard built-in camera, seems to trigger the shutdown. And I think that has happened before 15.0, when I was back on 14.1
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Dhalsim43:
Have you tried to set the profile to performance (in battery settings) ?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Genghis1227:
For the camera app I said to not optimize the battery. Otherwise not sure what other setting in LOS15 that you are mentioning.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
Heh! Thanks! I'll try that. Now, maybe, starting the camera when the battery is at 60% will just slow everything to a crawl, instead of crashing the phone completely :)
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Genghis1227:
See I wasn't 100% crazy... Just 40%, the battery is 60%.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] mrk2815:
also using nexus 6 with lineage 14.1 and magisk 15.1 an can pass safety net.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Dhalsim43:
I'm not talking about optimization (Doze) but about performance profile :
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Genghis1227:
I don't have that screen... Are you on LOS15?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Dhalsim43:
I'm on 14.1
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] droidxxxxx:
Can we flash another kernel with this?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Genghis1227:
Waiting for Franco to become compatible.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] SteveYoungs:
Sure. I use ElementalX.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Genghis1227:
For 14.1 right? Not 15.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] SteveYoungs:
Yes, but there is also an Oreo EX kernel.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] ChosenHero4:
I haven't had any luck getting that to work on my phone. Always causes bootloops.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] BootloopedMillennials:
I let my battery drop down to 58%. Opened camera and no shutdown. Then went into Google Maps, browser, etc. No major lag except some in clunkiness scrolling around Google Maps. FYI I use Google Cam preinstalled via gapps.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
Are you on 14.1 or 15.0? I suspect 14.1 generally shows a different battery percentage. It seems to me that on 14.1 my battery percentage is much lower than on 15.0. So, if you're on 14.1, and the battery shows 58%, the corresponding percentage on 15.0 would be something like 70 or 80%. But that's just a vague recollection of how battery level showed up on nougat
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] BootloopedMillennials:
14.1
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
Aha. That's what I suspected. If my supposition about the battery percentage differences is correct, then you shouldn't get the sluggishness or shutdown problem till your battery level is something more like 30%. I'd be interested to hear what happens for you in that case
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] jayadev01:
Happy New year Guys and the Lineage Team! Hoping for a beautiful prosperous great year ahead for everyone of us...
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] SteveYoungs:
Check the EX forum here, I saw something about tweaking the build.prop to get around that. I'm running LineageOS 14.1 so I can't say for sure if it will help.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
Nope :( Yesterday when the battery level got to less than 60%, I tried using the camera, and it took a picture or two, then crashed and died. It never did act slow, just went black
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Genghis1227:
Mine doesn't crash but everything is slow. Have to charge it back up to get the performance back.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
Neither option seems optimal :)
