Mic issue

I have Pure Nexus, Magisk, njh47d, and elemental installed on my Pixel XL bought from Google, but activated on Verizon. Couple days ago I rooted and installed AOKP with SuperSU and stock kernel. Somewhere in all of this my microphone stopped working correctly on phone calls. Microphone sounds fine on any type of regular recording, but on a phone call I have to almost yell directly on the mic for it to pick up, and speaker phone doesn't work either. I don't think it's the solder issue because if I tilt the phone towards my mouth and speak very very loud it works, but I can't use the phone the normal way. It's almost like the phones audio gate is set too high.

Please help!!

I have magisk installed... what SU do I use, from where?
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] hokiealumnus:
Magisk is root. If you have it properly installed you don't need anything else.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Scottay5150:
You are correct. Currently on 13.3 R4. Frequently I lose root. Is there a better option on July release?
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] just_visiting:
It's basically been a week on July for me and I have yet to lose root or failing safetynet. Knock on wood.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] jimmmysil:
Get magisk 13.3 there is a moded version exclusively for Google pixel XL I don't think h that the normal 13.4 version works with our device. I have 13.3 working right now and when I check for updates through magisk manager it sets I have the latest version

First time in a long while I had a freeze up and ram dump. I was on twitter when it froze up trying to make a comment and then got the ram dump screen. No clue why but that problem hasn't really been around much for me lately. July Rom and latest boot loader. I did a clean flash when I went to July.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] ih8un:
How does one go about doing this on a mac? When I try the first command I get " (23) Failed to writing body"

I was about to flash the kernel by booting into the bootloader but can't figure the first step out

also don't know if it has anythig to do with anything but I can't use Google maps to navigate, everytime I try and navigate it just exits navigation mode and takes me to the preview
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] pcriz:
If it's

13.3b4 has been stable. Try wiping data on the magisk manager. And go in make sure hide is checked and reboot.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MeetFace:
Did I do something wrong, or do you still not get the "Root" settings of Elemental with Magisk as opposed to Su.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] pcriz:
Pretty sure that hasn't changed
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MeetFace:
OK, that's what I suspected. I decided to go Magisk this time (haven't re-installed since April) because I saw a couple of comments that mentioned all is working with Elemental with Magisk...but apparently they don't use gestures or HBM =\

Thanks PCRIZ
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MeetFace:
To my pleasant surprise, after getting everything setup and EX Kernel Manager installed, all options were available and gestures are working. Profit.

Can you change the I/o scheduler in the aroma when you installed it? I'm just curious.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MeetFace:
That's why I thought it didn't work, because the Aroma was mostly blank. I flashed Magisk then Kernel, so perhaps a reboot and another Aroma run would be yielded different results?
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] daniking:
Hi

I install this rom yesterday and after flashing everything works fine but my LTE speed decrease to half or more. My download speed in speedtest app before flashing was 50 mb and after flashing it is around 10 mb. I install twrp, alpha 2 and supersu 4.

Kind of OT but just wondering if anyone has issues with Snapchat lately? I'm constantly getting a "could not refresh" error :/

Not sure if it's because of having a custom ROM, I doubt it since this wasn't happening while on PN before. The only workaround I've found so far is disabling WiFi, using mobile data to refresh Snapchat, and then turning WiFi back on again.

I was having similar issues with Google+ and YouTube as well. Both apps were giving me network errors, and the only fix was the same (toggling WiFi). I no longer seem to have any issues with these two apps, but now Snapchat is giving me a hard time :(

I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app and that's about it (didn't work). Anyone else experience this?
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] pcriz:
Working fine here
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] rickysidhu_:
I believe I found the culprit - the local VPN that adguard sets up seems to be the reason. I disabled it and haven't had the "could not refresh" error yet :/

Sucks I paid 10 bucks for the ad blocker lol now I feel obligated to use it until it expires :silly:
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] WhiteReign:
So what's better. SU or Magisk? That's the real question.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] pcriz:
Not a hard question. Are you trying to use Pokemon go, Android pay, or some other app that looks for root?

No, use SuperSU

Yes, use Magisk

YUP!

When I was on the stock July build, and the stock kernel.

Check back a couple pages, and flash the updated kernel from [MENTION=6842057]The Flash[/MENTION] and you should be good to go.

Also, factory reset the head unit, and clear out Bluetooth settings.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Inthus:
Thanks! I saw him update the kernel, but I wasn't sure if that was the issue causing that issue. I'll be sure to do that!
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] bradhoschar:
I'm 99.99% sure its the kernel, also related to the MTP issue. I'm gonna go out on a limb and guess you can't connect to MTP either?
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Inthus:
I can connect, but just some oddities with it. Doesn't seem to consistent. Haven't had a chance to flash and test things yet.

[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] pcriz:
Question.

Have you enabled screen mirroring on another rom with whatever hardware you have access to?

If the answer is no then this probably isn't a ROM issue and likely better addressed in the Questions section of the forum so you aren't just limited to people using PureNexus.

System Update notification

After a few months of being on an older PN Build Today I received a notification for Android System Update. If I tap on it nothing happens. Is anyone else randomly receiving this notification. If I block the google play services notification what other notifications will I not be receiving. such as gps or location etc. or is it safe to just block all notifications from google play services?

In developer options I have automatic system updates set to off.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] SikYou:
I have never received a system update notification while running PN; I'm always on the latest build though...

[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] pcriz:
Can you post a screen shot of your about screen. Also if its an actual system update like from google I wouldnt just block the notification because it could potentially be trying to install, failing, deleting, starting over and so forth. Causing you a lot of data drain without you knowing..

WiFI Calling Not Working

Getting great battery life, but my Wifi calling is still not working.

On Google Phone using Verizon Sim.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] whitak3r:
I also just got this. It's for the "android beta program". I came here to see if there was anyone else with this problem or anyone who knows how to remove this notification.

I am NOT on the latest version of Pure Nexus.

I think the problem lies in the fact that I(we?) are part of the android beta program. Might have to disable that? I'm trying to find an answer too. I hate that damn icon.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] cntryby429:
I also have a Google phone on vzw service. Wifi calling works but the toggle in settings gets turned off every so often and has to be re-enabled. It's probably after every reboot but I've never bothered to investigate. I just tick it back on when I need it and it works.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Almaretto:
The initial screen says Cellular Preferred, but I have Wifi Calling enabled and wifi preferred set. It never changes. However, on factory rom, I will get Wifi Calling indication and people on the other end of the line praise the clarity while on Pure Nexus I get no indication of Wifi calling and people complain they cannot hear me. I also cannot connect to VZW network extender.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Archangel:
Just got this too and I am running a different rom but I went into Google Play Services and stopped the notifications,,,so far that stopped it but dont know if it is still trying to download in the background? I remember with old Moto devices you used to be able to go into motoupdater and freeze that in TiBu,,,wonder if there is anything like that for pixel?

System Update

Here is a screenshot of the notification asking to update. When I click on it it does nothing. and the only way to stop receiving it is to block play services notifications.

I also looked into the beat program for my device it is not listed so not sure if that is the reason.

I'm currently on Feb build NOF26W. I beleive my other partition is the previous PN before Feb.

I never took the leap to April with the new bootloader and headaches people were having at the time. Plus with all the different guides I never felt comfortable restarting everything However if I found a good video or set of instructions that were confirmed I would take the leap and try to get current.

I also checked my beta programs and I am a playservices beta tester I quit that today but I'm still getting the notification.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] cntryby429:
Have you tried putting it into airplane mode, turning on WiFi, and then making a call to force a wifi call? Perhaps you're getting crappy (but some) cellular signal and it's keeping your phone from thinking it should handle the calls through wifi. I don't know how to default to wifi calls when wifi is available but that would be great as I get barely adequate cell service in my home. I suspect there's a way to automate it in Tasker that would blow my mind, I just haven't looked into it.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] pcriz:
I dunno, I have a signal and mine defaults to WiFi calling when I get home. I mean I have it set to preferred but that is the default so I am assuming the normal functionality just isn't working for you guys.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Grubling:
My Pixel XL hard bricked itself, as far as I can tell, on Saturday. Transferred some files to flash drive and set my phone down. Picked it up a few hours a later and it was icy. No button combos seem to work, doesn't seem to charge (doesn't get warm when plugged in). My computer recognizes that something is plugged in, but shows nothing in Device Manager. ADB and Fastboot don't recognize it. Seems to be no fix, only RMA. Only posting because I had wondered if I had somehow gotten a stock update that failed, especially now seeing all the recent update notification posts. I think I had Auto System Update disabled...
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] pcriz:
Because of the partition system, if all things are working as they should, a failed update would be unable to boot and the device would return to the still functioning slot.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Almaretto:
That seemed to trigger Wifi calling. Just unfortunate that I have to put in Airplane, then enable Wifi. But, most of the time around Wifi anyways, so could just leave it in airplane mode and get 7 day battery life.

Arggg... Everything with my phone works like a charm EXCEPT wifi calling. I've never had a wifi calling issue with PN before the July build. Now, Enhanced Calling is enabled, but when I try to toggle Wifi Calling to on, I get an message stating that emergency address has stopped working. I haven't tried the ADB fix as outlined earlier, but I also don't have that exact problem. Any ideas anybody? Thanks!
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Almaretto:
Thanks I will give it a try. When in airplane mode, I can make calls as well as send and receive texts; but, then I cannot receive calls.

Check out lock screen: "Verizon Wireless Wi-Fi Calling" with "Airplane Mode" icon.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Bubbamanlarry:
I'm thinking that, since my Pixel XL is a Google purchased one, that when Verizon activated my S8, my Pixel XL isn't being recognized properly by Verizon's system. I'll try the posted fix to try to force it if that doesn't work.

So I was 99% done setting up ROM, flashed SU and PN, and when I boot into phone I get the 'can't check for corrupt data' error, and I'm not rooted. Anyone have a guess on why I don't have root? It's saying the rom doesn't match the NHJ47D image when I boot up too, will that kill my root access? Not sure why it's saying that either.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] pTeronaut:
I'd like to know how they are, as they don't offer BYOD.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] cmo220:
The can't check for corrupt data is because your bootloader is unlocked. That has nothing to do with root.

The other error and not being rooted will probably be fixed by flashing the vendor image and SU again. It sounds like those were both flashed while you were on the wrong slot.

The slot thing has been explained much better than I could ever do several times, probably even in the last couple of pages.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] GroovinChip:
Question - does the camera work on PureNexus as well as it does on stock?
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] just_visiting:
I suggest you read and learn before rooting and flashing a custom rom.

can't check for corrupt data' error means you have a unlocked bl and has nothing to do with your rom being rooted or not.

Vendor image error means you have to flash the vendor image after the initial bootup.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] amartinie:
Kinda know how this goes, Just continuing to flash the correct vendor image only to get warnings that I'm on the wrong one. Despite factory resetting and doing the whole thing over. I'm flashing A and B, with NJH47D_vendor.img, and it continues to tell me every boot that I need the NJH47D vendor image.. :|

Edit: Fix for anyone having trouble :

Use the twrp rc1 img, don't use rc2 or alphas. Don't flash recovery, just fastboot boot twrp.img, don't flash the twrp zip either. Flash your vendor img from INSIDE twrp, NOT from flashboot. Also make sure you log into apps like snapchat BEFORE you flash SuperSU or you'll get locked out because many apps block rooted users. After flashing SuperSU, your phone will boot cycle several times, DON'T TOUCH IT. It will boot on its own in 5-15 minutes. Download a root checker app once you get into your system. If rooted, go ahead and jump into the SuperSU app and give it whatever permissions it wants. If you ever need to boot into twrp, do it through the fastboot boot twrp.img command until someone puts out more info or a fix.

Spent several hours today digging through vague posts and compiling information. Tag me if anyone is having issues, there's a lot of problems I went through today and found fixes for that I don't have time to type out at the moment.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] bradhoschar:
Wow. Where to even begin with this......?

Why would you factory reset because the vendor.img won't flash?

I would absolutely recommend rc2 for flashing anything. rc1 is just to BOOT to. Once you're booted, flash rc2.

If you tried magisk, you can 'magisk hide' from apps like SnapChat, or whatever is stingy about root.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MeetFace:
On the latest build with clean flash.

I'm getting a lot of dropped texts in places don't normally. Funny thing is they go through some times. I'm on Verizon, should I flash a different radio? I motive my LTE drops and takes some time to turn back on.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] amartinie:
Because the unmatched rom was crashing both my windows and Linux machines and no driver stock or 3rd party would make it work again. Couldn't get into my phone. Had to push through an ftp. At that point the image was irrelevant.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] pcriz:
I can't help but to think you are making a mistake somewhere. My vendors flash fine in rc 1 and 2 fully flashed.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] amartinie:
Already got everything working. Had to switch to the Ex Kernel, and Swap out SuperSU for Magisk. Still don't know what really caused my USB issues but at least it works now. I really don't understand why the vendor thing even happened. The second time I flashed the vendor, it held.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] jewnersey:
Looking forward to testing this out, been on RR since I bought the phone. Couple things:

1. was using 4x4 pattern unlock and was greeted with 3x3 at first boot, so was not able to unlock. Am going to reflash RR, change to 3x3, and then reflash PN.

2. is there a clear cut set of steps for installing Magisk? I mostly want to play Mario Run, and maybe try Android Pay, but once I lose interest in both of those, is it easy steps to get back to SU ?

thanks
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] bradhoschar:
Yea, that is because of the wrong kernel.

That was fixed by [MENTION=6842057]The Flash[/MENTION] a couple pages back

---------- Post added at 11:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:11 PM ----------

Again, reading would be a real solution to the issues you were having.

When Beans released the July build, the kernel was causing MTP issues. This was covered some pages back.

It is fixed.
