It's not the Android OS. It's a degraded/defective battery. Install and run Accubattery to calculate the capacity of your battery now vs. design. No, the upgrade from 7.1.1 to 7.1.2 did not fix the early shutdown issue, because it is a battery problem. The longer you wait for a software fix, the worse the problem will become. If you can't get anything done through your warranty, start looking at getting a replacement battery.

Now that Google has posted the full image (not OTA) there is no need for the recovery flashable zip you used. Load the full image in FF, use "Flash Firmware Package" not "Zip or OTA" and choose Boot, System and Vendor only- not Recovery or Modem. Make sure "Inject SuperSU" and "Preserve Recovery" are selected. Flash. When completed you will have 7.1.2 still rooted and retain TWRP ...but without the new bootloader or radio. Chainfire recommends using fastboot to install bootloader and radio because it is the safest way. Just extract these two img files from the file you d/l from Google and flash them with fastboot. You can also find TWRP flashable baseband/radio combination files on XDA, but fastboot is quick and easy. Hope this helps.
[Nexus 6P General] mochamoo:
Seriously I think that by now we all know about the degradation issue by now. Point is that, for some, the early shutdown started when flashing the latest beta. I originally flashed it via OTA after going back to stock. I reflashed using the full OTA from the developer site and fastboot. It shutdown at 7% last night. This is a little better. But the all important SOT has also dropped a good 30-45 minutes from 7.1.1. This is from accubattery stats from last week to this week (7.1.1 to 7.1.2b2). That is a lot of degradation in just a few days. Hoping that it will get better in a few more days of settling in.
[Nexus 6P General] v12xke:
Odd that although you have been running Accubattery for some time, you neglected to mention your battery's capacity? Accubattery has a disclaimer that they are not a battery drain app- they never intended it to be, but if you follow the manual capacity test a few times you will get a very close estimate on your battery's current capacity. I'm sympathetic to your cause- there are too many users in your predicament, I just think your focus should be on the battery health, not a incremental upgrade from 7.1.1 to 7.1.2.
[Nexus 6P General] richii0207:
If it's battery degradation, why has there been reports of other phones having the same thing with recent updates?
[Nexus 6P General] rchtk:
Can we not talk about battery in the other thousand threads about battery?

If it's also software related, at least we know it is not specific to 7.1.2 or even not Nougat as people with MM experienced it.

Let's stay on topic.
[Nexus 6P General] mochamoo:
Ok, my focus is battery life/health. That battery life as indicated by SOT in Accubattery and the device battery info screen has dropped by 30-45 minutes (on a daily basis) since installing the beta could be purely coincidental but seems a bit much to expect. Have run the manual capacity test the last few nights and has indicated ~2900mAh (84%) capacity. It has been 84% on 7.1.1 for at least a week or two but was getting higher SOT. Perhaps the phone needs to settle in a bit longer with the beta. Not going to be real happy if it's only going to get 3 hours and if I have to max out the battery to do it.

Was really just making an observation about the beta since some were bored with the how to wipe/install posts. :) It's pretty responsive, like the fingerprint gesture but dislike the hit to battery life that I've observed so far.

P.S. I just saw something about a particular version of play services 10.2.98 that may be the culprit. It may be causing additional wakelocks.
[Nexus 6P General] joelunch:
How do you do that exactly. My battery is so bad no matter what I do. I 'll try anything. I just did what I thought closest to a full wipe and tried 7.1.2 beta and still no better. 7% drain with the screen off. Only installed about 5 basic apps including Gsam and Accubattery
[Nexus 6P General] Edgio60:
Had this phone for 16 months now and I'm getting 5 to 5.5 hrs SOT on 7.1.2 compared to 4 to 4.5 on 7.1.1. Pretty happy so far, and with the Pixel mod and certain root apps I don't feel the need for a custom rom anymore.
[Nexus 6P General] mochamoo:
I just updated mine: http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/google-play-services/google-play-services-10-5-48-release
[Nexus 6P General] Cave_diver:
Has anyone noticed any doze changes with 7.1.2?

Running 7.1.2 beta 2 with Franco Kernel, Magisk and Naptime. While SOT is absolutely stellar (6-7 hours in power-saving CPU/GPU mode), standby pulls anything from 0.9 to 2% per hour.

Compared to previously using Naptime, that's quite a lot and at least double the drain I'm used to. Checking GSAM suggests that doze doesn't kick in instantly and also tends to stay in light doze mode for pretty much the entire time.

Does anyone have Naptime confirmed to work with 7.1.2? I wonder if there were changes made that broke it.
[Nexus 6P General] Face_Plant:
Have you tried it without Naptime to see if it's the cause of the issue?
[Nexus 6P General] richii0207:
Did you try stock kernel without root to rule out any mods? To me, drain on beta seems about equal to RC.
[Nexus 6P General] Cave_diver:
Actually the drain is what I usually get and would expect without Naptime. I just happen to think it may have zero effect.

I can try stock but Naptime does need root to work. It would be interesting to hear from someone else on 7.1.2 using Naptime.
[Nexus 6P General] shadymouse:
For those who are shutting down at 15% or more, it may be time to give Google a call. Sounds like you may need to try to get them to replace your device or you can DIY replace your battery. There's not a software fix out there that will magically fix this issue unfortunately.

---------- Post added at 09:19 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:17 AM ----------

I used to suffer from the same battery issue. I called up Google and I was able to get a replacement POST warranty. I'm on 7.1.2 right now and my battery went all the way down to 4%, like I mentioned, it's not the software.
[Nexus 6P General] Carterman32:
I installed 7.1.2 Beta, but I now have an issue recurring that started in 7.1, but was repaired in 7.1.1. During car BT calls in my audi a4, the connection is intermittently fuzzy/has interference. It doesn't matter where I take the call, it always happens.

I can't find evidence of others reporting this issue, but it's the second time it's happened to me. I have a TWRP backup, but I'm worried the new radio and bootloader I flashed from the 7.1.2 image is the culprit. As I understand it, restoring from the TWRP backup won't revert those items back.

What's my best option to fix the issue?
[Nexus 6P General] v12xke:
If you suspect the bootloader and radio from 7.1.2, then first flash those back to 7.1.1 versions. Very easy to do through fastboot and will not affect your installation of 7.1.2.

[Nexus 6P General] thesebastian:
I have a question about the 6P brightness, I ask here since I'm also in 7.1.2 beta and I'm new with a Nexus 6P:

When you are in a completely dark room (at bed before going to sleep), using auto brightness, do you manage to have actually much less minimum brightness if you have the adaptive brightness option enabled?

In my case: "minimum brightness + adaptive brightness" dims much more the display V.S. "minimum brightness without adaptive brightness".

Is like if the old "night mode" was enabled when adaptive brightness is enabled. In my previous phones I used to find the minimum brightness disabling the adaptive brightness, in this one is just the opposite.

Anyway, just asking to check whether is normal or not.

Thanks!
[Nexus 6P General] Cave_diver:
Normal, also with 7.1.1...
[Nexus 6P General] thesebastian:
Ok that's great anyway. Since i always use adaptive brightness and with this phone i don't need to turn it off to get even less brightness.

Thank you

Amen. If you don't know what you're doing, don't do it. I know, it's 2017, but one orange, fat guy doing a job without foreknowledge about what he's doing is enough.

Those things are called "beta" and "developer previews" for a reason. If you're uncomfortable flashing your device, simply don't do it. If you really want to, however, go ahead and do some research; read the forum, learn about the phrases and jargon used here and only attempt a try if you feel secure enough in your freshly acquired knowledge. If something goes wrong, try to troubleshoot by yourself first. If things are still not working, you can always come here and ask about it, but please make sure we can replicate your error. Simply stating that something didn't work is just not sufficient to let us help you.

[Nexus 6P General] foosion:
The 7.1.2 full OTA and factory image are not beta. They do appear to be older than the beta (at least in part), so you can't flash the OTA. The factory image includes the April security patch, rather than the March in the beta.
[Nexus 6P General] gqukyo:
I flashed the full OTA just fine and I was on beta 2. I no longer get the beta pop up on boot up either now. However... now I'm getting the notification about the beta for NPG47I... which I believe is still beta 2... lol and I can't get rid of the notification. If the new beta is actually beta 3 or at least newer than beta 2, I'd gladly switch to it from stock.
[Nexus 6P General] rchtk:
7.1.2b2 is NPG47I and 7.1.2 is N2G47H

So not older, exactly the same build number. Just different branch and 8 vs 9 on the beta versions have been built on the same date.

Needs G48 or more.

Nexus 6P Slow charging after April Android 7.1.2 update?

My Nexus 6P is experiencing "slow charging" after April 7.1.2 Update (OTA).

I am using stock Nexus 6P charger, which now shows "charging rapidly" on lockscreen with 5 hours estimated time of full charge but is charging 18-20% in 1 hour.

Anyone else having this issue?

Can you repeat that?!

You were on 7.1.2 beta? And flashed the (full) OTA via TWRP, right?!

[Nexus 6P General] madeSICC:
Works for me.
[Nexus 6P General] Robdyx:
Works perfectly for me, even though I find it a little useless.

I hope they allow for modifications in the behaviour, even with root tools. I'd love to be able to turn off my screen using, for example, a swipe up when the notification bar is not expanded.
[Nexus 6P General] HikingMoose:
Correct. Wiping all of your data, means it wipes all of your data on the data partition, which is where your data for your apps and settings is stored.
[Nexus 6P General] Face_Plant:
There's an app for that. It works pretty good if you select "use hidden API" and grant it root access. You can assign many custom actions for taps or swipes on the fingerprint sensor. I stopped using it because I didn't really use it that much. Search for "Fingerprint Quick Action" on the play store.
[Nexus 6P General] Robdyx:
I know, I have been using this app until now, but this doesn't quite use swipe gestures, but a workaround for quick taps. The developer said in the last update he wouldn't maintain it anymore so it's a real pity, but I'd love to see real swipes supported now that they are system implemented.
[Nexus 6P General] combat goofwing:
Do you know if by doing this assistant will work in the UK with English UK selected ,so i take it then it sets apps back to a fresh I stall but not the phone

I'm sure developers will find a way to integrate custom gestures eventually. They never cease to amaze me.

[Nexus 6P General] blitzkriegger:
I did not experience this issue. But do try if the following steps work for you:

1.) First off open the SDK tools folder then open SDK manager.

2.) Update to the latest version of the Platform Tools (25.0.4 I think). Note: If you place your .img files (like I do) within the platform-tools folder those will be erased after the update, so just add those back.

3.) Try to fastboot flash all the images again. If you notice though the 7.1.2 full images don't include the cache.img (Not sure why). So what I did was get the cache.img from the March update and flash it after formating cache.

4.) One you successfully flash all required images try to boot up again.

getting the latest platform tools (not the full SDK .. just the command line stuff) from HERE

flash all the 7.1.2 stuff as normal

before the final reboot, erase the CACHE, the flash the CACHE.IMG

** (I kept this CACHE.IMG in case I need it again)

Reboot

I tried ALL the solutions I could find .. but until I flashed the CACHE.IMG (erasing and even formatting the CACHE didn't help) .. I just got the "no command" screen.

I don't have ambient display on, neither the option to touch the device to display notifications, but turning them on doesn't make it work neither... Any clue or something I'm missing?

Nay, it should work out of the box, nothing else activated. Remember to disable any other apps that could be interfering with the fingerprint reader. For me, having Fingerprint Quick Action enabled, overrides the stock gestures.
