For me good old Cyanogenmod (now Lineage OS) is always great or Resurrection Remix . I'm current using Resurrection Remix and I'm very impressed, it is rock solid and has load of features, all around a great rom. Stock however ALMOST ALWAYS sucks, so much b.s is installed with it, I hate it... Either Cyanogenmod (Lineage OS) or Resurrection Remix...

Do I need to change the partition to flash Uber ROM.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TrainNanpaMaster:
If you want f2fs you want to change data and cache only.

( spoiler alert you want f2fs)

Make sure you format your phone before you do that. Now here's the good news. You can throw on an old TWRP backup on to your newly formatted f2fs phone.

So what I always do, is to a PC I always backup my TWRP backup, my DCIM folder, some music and stuff that I know I want to keep, and a few other folders. I then format my phone to f2fs, then I move all those folders back and I restore my TWRP backup. I'm usually back up and running in about an hour.

Hello yamilmanzur,

sorry for the noob question, but where can i get stock rom - do you have a link? Can i install it via TWRP?

Thanks for answer!!
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Overrated...did you try it out. F2FS is 100% faster r/w speeds. My entire UI is smoother too. This all because file system is more efficient. And you say that's what other people say about F2FS, that's quite the assumption. I know quite a few devs n fellow flashers that can agree its more efficient than ext4.

F2FS

Recent mobile devices adopt various flash storages as a primary storage. File system support for those flash storages is a must for flash device performance and lifespan. Samsung developed a new file system called F2FS, designed for mobile flash storages. F2FS is designed considering the characteristics of the underlying flash storage which has flash translation layer (FTL). F2FS outperforms EXT4, which is a popular file system for Android phones, in most of benchmarks.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thunderbolt:
F2fs is popular and legend since i remember , when Nexus 5 arrived, i was read about IT first time. Till now is undiscover and unknown sometimes.

hi thloe, You can download in this link: https://developers.google.com/android/ota

To reinstall the stock ROM you would use the Nexus Root Toolkit. I could not tell you if TWRP would be useful
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
I'm going to post a reminder in here. While we do allow threads like this, we do NOT want to see disrespectful posts towards members or their work. Developers do this for fun and for free, and share with the rest of us. No one here has any business badmouthing them or their work. Show them the respect they deserve. This isn't a department store, and this isn't a rom review site. K?

Constructive and respectful opinions are fine. But if I see more trash posts, I will be back. And I will close the thread, as it's no loss to xda at all.

And if you don't like something on XDA, show us your work? So we can critique it please. :good:

F2fs is NOT overrated, lol.

I'm guessing that you've never used it otherwise you wouldn't be saying that.

And Magisk is still in it's infantile stages. It does affect phone performance - which I'm guessing is definitely the root of your problem. If you would use SuperSU sr3, you'll see a dramatic increase in speed.

Reading that Google is working on 7.1.2 I'm wondering if it will be also for Shamu. What's your prognosis?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JonesL:
https://android-developers.googleblog.com/2017/01/get-sneak-peek-at-android-nougat-712.html

Only way to get 7.1.2 will be via custom ROMS, funny enough they are still updating that rubbish Nexus Player, which is the same age as the N6 and 9.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aroy97:
I'm sure they will release a 7.1.2 for N6 to officially fix the speakerphone bug
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Candy[MAN]:
It will come when the final is released.

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Obscure Reference:
When logging in to their beta portal my Nexus 6 is no longer enrolled for Beta so it's looking a tad bleak.

i Believe in lineageos only , they still support nexus 4 :D with 7.1.1 so dont worry our n6 will be supported by them
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dahawthorne:
I'm so depressed by this news that I decided not to wait for Google to fix the speakerphone problem and installed Yoinx's fix (https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=70663169&postcount=81 - thanks, [MENTION=3096255]Oxicottin[/MENTION]). I'm astonished that Google would leave the N6 in a broken state, but maybe that's just life...

So going forward I'll be relying on our excellent developers, and I too am looking at LineageOS as well as Pure, Nitrogen, etc.

I want to tread carefully here, because I mean no disrespect to anyone, but my only concern is the number of comments I've seen about Cyanogenmod and its bugs (I have not tried it on my N6, so I have no personal knowledge). Given that LineageOS is the descendant of CM, is that concern valid?

And perhaps this is a good place to ask for feedback on which ROM is best-placed for my purpose and for anyone else interested in long-term maintenance of their device? I don't need bells and whistles, just a ROM where every standard function works.

I know from my long reading experience in XDA that the temptation will be to say "Try them all and see", but it makes more sense to me to ask for opinions from people who have already done that - given that I'm not looking for the all-singing all-dancing perfect ROM, just stable functionality.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] angourakis:
I haven't tried LineageOS yet, but Cyanogenmod has always been rock solid for me.

For what you're asking "every standard function works", all of the Custom ROMs you quoted will work.

I used Pure Nexus for quite a while and I loved it! It's based on the latest branch from Google (r13), and have lots of tweaks to look like a Pixel. You should try it ;)
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
[MENTION=6161558]dahawthorne[/MENTION]: The speakerphone fix will be in the security updates. That said, we all will need to rely on custom ROMs from this point on if we want new features.

I've used Pure Nexus from day 1 with few complaints.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seahorsepip:
Sigh this world is filled with idiots...

The beta versions are only available for the latest devices, guess what? Nexus 6 is not something you can call latest. Afterwards it will be released to all devices.

Same has happened with the 7.1 beta.

It annoys me to read apocalypse stories everytime this happens and nobody is sane enough to logically think back to the last time this happened.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dahawthorne:
[MENTION=4453000]seahorsepip[/MENTION]

I don't get your point. Am I the idiot, or is this disrespectful comment intended to insult everyone?

Where exactly do you source the comment "Afterwards it will be released to all devices" given that there are at least two posted references in this thread stating the opposite?

And your tolerance level seems to be very low. Perhaps you should try yoga? :)
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alexcolka:
I have a good feeling for that too, I would say (based on anything) that the speakerphone issue will be addressed in the 7.1.1 February security patch.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lawstorant:
Guess it's time to switch from PureNexus to something else.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zelendel:
People shouldnt be surprised. We all knew this was gonna happen years ago when we bought the device. But to be honest, this is XDA. Who cares about official.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
I think it was directed at everyone, and its genesis is a reading comprehension failure on [MENTION=4453000]seahorsepip[/MENTION]'s part.

I'm sure he'll have a stinging rebuke at the ready, but no amount of insults will change the facts here. This device is not getting Android 7.1.2 from Google. Custom ROMs will be the only way to upgrade from this point on.

I'm prepared for the future. Is anyone else?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seahorsepip:
Willing to bet we get 7.1.2 when it's out of beta.

This is exactly the same story as with 7.1, everyone and every news site was saying it was the n6 EOL just because it wasn't part of the beta, while the beta clearly states "latest devices only".

Reading comprehension failure, seriously? Besides the absurd choice and combination of words in that sentence it's not a matter of reading, it's a matter of sources. Currently not a single article has a definitive source that states it's the nexus 6 EOL. All articles just assume its the nexus 6 EOL because it's a nice clickbait article just like it was back with the previous betas.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
[MENTION=4453000]seahorsepip[/MENTION]: Droid Life confirmed it with Google in a follow-up to the initial announcement on their site. Now, if that isn't satisfactory, and given how hostile your first post on this thread is it probably won't be, send a message to Google and ask them yourself. In the meantime, I'll be doing something more meaningful than having a battle of wits with an unarmed person.

I still have 6.0 on my 6. What's going on with the speaker phone?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dahawthorne:
Not like you to be out of the loop, Mike... :)

There's a bug in 7.1.1 where the microphone picks up the sound from the bottom speaker and causes terrible feedback on the other end of the call. As I understand it, Yoinx's patch turns off the bottom speaker to avoid this. I tested it last night and it works. It may be fixed officially in the February release - who knows?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
The man is an Xposed junkie, which is why he hasn't upgraded.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dahawthorne:
Yeah, I guessed that... :)
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pjsnyc:
I guess we all knew it was gonna happen at some point. Still a great device.

Looking forward to taking the plunge and install custom ROMs soon!

If I had to pick one custom ROM to use on the N6, it probably would be LineageOS. I've had great results with previous phones and Cyanogen. In fact, I just resurrected my old LG Optimus G with the latest CM nightly (Lollipop still looks and feels great!) to use as a Chromecast remote.

Pure Nexus and Nitrogen look pretty good as well!

All of the above will make this phone feel brand new again. Big ups to the devs here at XDA!
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lgmayka:
Has anyone noticed that over-the-air customers are still on Android 7.0 ? I assume that Google will not OTA Android 7.1 until the speakerphone bug is fixed?

EDIT: I am referring more specifically to customers whose carrier is AT&T, but who subscribed to Google's Beta program. As you know, Google has now cancelled the Beta program, leaving such devices on Android 7.0 (NBD90Z) and security patch level October 5, 2016.

Oddly, AT&T itself recently released a version also called 7.0.0 but build NBD91W and security patch level January 5, 2017.

Is it possible that Google totally disrespected their Beta customers by leaving them on a bizarre obsolete version that is then not OTA-updatable by carriers?

Sorry, I have no idea. All I can say is that it solved the loudspeaker call problem. I doubt that it can cause you any problems, so I can only suggest that you try flashing it, though I suspect it will make no difference to your loudspeaker volume.

For some reason whenever I try to make calls they get disconnected at random times like after I make a call, after the person answers the call, after I answer, etc. even though it seems to work fine on my laptop. I emailed the app developer and I received a response saying I messaged a no-reply address and also contained a link to a page on Google that listed a bunch of products and services that are owned by Google, like AdSense and Google Calendar, but did not contain any technical support contact information.

If you press the backspace one tap at a time it will delete one letter at a time, if you hold backspace it deletes a few letters at a slow pace, hold it longer and it speeds up and deletes whole words, it is designed to do that.

If you want a different keyboard then try a few of them from playstore, read the rating, reviews and comments about each of them and find the best one that suits you.
