[Nexus 6 Android Development] gothy.gothy:
I didn't use this ROM until now, but I want to give it a try in 3 hours from now, so, guys, honestly, what makes this ROM different, compared to the other "big" ones: RR, PN, Vanilla, Nitrogen...?

And kindly please let me know (from your experience using this ROM) your recommendations regarding the kernel, Viper and some other goodies that match the best with this ROM.

Thank you.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] BobAzzon:
Been a while since I've been here.....but now it just got real!! Welcome Frankie!!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] fkfmfz:
to be honest, it comes down to personal preference, the only way is to try it and see how it stands to your liking. as of kernel i use blackbird, i dont use other mods so i would not know, sorry.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] leos0000:
So wich kernel best for rom ? :)
[Nexus 6 Android Development] fkfmfz:
I would assume the one from OP, blackbird for shamu
[Nexus 6 Android Development] gothy.gothy:
Thank you for answer.

Please let me know, as Blackbird Kernel is not updated with May security patches, could this cause sound (or other) problems?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] fkfmfz:
no sir, no issues at all
[Nexus 6 Android Development] BobAzzon:
Blackbird runs fine, no issues with patch or sound...

Sorry if this is a stupid question but I wanted to make sure before flashing. I am on the 0530 build and want to update to the 0613 latest build. Can I just flash ROM wipe davlik/cache and reboot or do I need to do anything else first? I really don't want to loose all my apps and settings as I FINALLY found an AWESOME ROM that I will stay with. I have tried so many in the past 6 months and this is by far the BEST one and the MOST stable. I love it! Keep up the GREAT work and thanks! :D
[Nexus 6 Android Development] BobAzzon:
Being that far between builds and new security patch, I would clean flash...but you can try the dirty flash method in op...wipe davlik, system, and cache. You won't lose data, settings etc...but no guarantee of no issues, force closes etc., As there been lots of changes between those builds.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] cujo6801:
If he wipes system he'll have to flash gapps as well...

"Sent from the Dog Pound"
[Nexus 6 Android Development] BobAzzon:
I guess I should have included that in my reply, he will also have to reflash su, or whatever root method you use... Thats how it says to update in the op., and I have never had an issues with data loss etc..

It's me again with a different problem :(

Although i disabled screen pinning under security -> advanced -> Screen pinning (OFF)

windows can be pinned when i press Overview (that square button) if i accidentally touch the header where the pin icon supposed to be. After then windows get pinned and after i unpin i can see the pin icon when i press Overview (that square button).

then i check screen pinning under security -> advanced -> Screen pinning and it is still (OFF).

Not a big deal, but when i accidentaly pinned a fullscreen game the navigation buttons get lost too and unable to unpin. swiped down quick settings then followed setting - six settings nav bar - nav. mode... navigation buttons was missing till i changed to fling and back to smart bar...

First of al v3.7 is working perfectly thx for your work.

it is a bit like a feature request but is it possible to have a control for adjusting blinking speed of notifications or at least disabling when battery is low?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] MrBrady:
It's already built in under SIX Settings / Display / LED Control
[Nexus 6 Android Development] williamt31:
So this morning my phone shat itself I believe. In between snooze alarms it changed the tone. Then I noticed the display timeout was reset, Night Light was back off and a couple other change I made initially have reset. Also the pull down won't extend on 2nd pull. I just have 5 icons, wifi, sim, battery, dnd and flashlight with 'No notifications' below that. if I tap one of them it looks like it thinks it's displaying below that line but it's not. Oh, and my 'recent apps' button at the bottom does nothing now.... Judging from the lack of reports of issues in this thread I'm thinking I had a unicorn experience? Does anyone have any advice or comments? I'm probably going to backup and do a wipe & reset when I get home tonight.

Update: Since I had no notification access I couldn't set USB to transfer, luckily while in recovery I had access to the sd so I recovered all my files, flashed latest rom, gapps, su and did a factory reset. Everything working as it should now. This has got to be the weirdest quirk I've ever seen. I'm not a developer or anything but I've rooted and modified every Android I've ever owned. I had been using it wifi only as I wait for my FI sim to arrive but I doubt that could have cause the issue?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] fkfmfz:
That is very strange, I never had or even heard of that kind of crash before. I don't think the Fi sim being absent would create such a problem.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] williamt31:

Yeah, even the Developer Options page was empty.

Since updating to SIX 3.8, which updated Substratum to v803, I've been unable to apply themes. I noticed Substratum does not ask for root access via Magisk. Magisk doesn't log a root rejection either though. Is that normal?

Tried:

• uninstalling user-installed Substratum

• clearing Substratum data/cache

• uninstalled/reinstalled themes

• set kernel to permissive

Any ideas how to fix on my end?

Hi, I dirty flashed latest update on fresh installed last release, All went well, rebooted just fine, everything worked, even restarted couple times and no problem. However last night battery ran out, and ever since I charged its stuck on boot logo 6 6 6 6. its something with rom, as I have multirom and in secondary Nitro and Pure boots just fine, However in primary SIX is my daily and I have all apps/appdata setup in this rom.

Why are you flashing a kernel over top of a ROM... Then complaining that it doesn't work in ROM threads?

The issue you appear to be that you can't write to /sys/android_touch/

Break out your root flavored explorer and check permissions... And make sure you can mount /sys/ read-write
[Nexus 6 Android Development] vlaf:
Because gestures doesn't work on stock kernel too and permissions are fine, all of them is -rw-r--r--.........

Very nice ROM. With blackbird kernel, this thing flies. Only bug I found was that the battery % inside icon doesn't work. Wanted to try this since I wanted something even more optimized that runs like PureNexus. Maybe it was the kernel that made it jump but I'm impressed so far.

[MENTION=2564710]fkfmfz[/MENTION] Just reinstalled from a factory image - completely fresh and noticed one huge change - Work Policy. Is it normal to have two sets of apps (Gmail, Drive, Contacts, Calendar, etc), one for work one for personal after installing my work Gmail account? I have never seen this previously - all the accounts were merged into one app which I could quickly switch between accounts, which I prefer.

I asked our IT manager about it and he said nothing has changed on their end. Only thing that changed on my end is the device is now encrypted due to the factory image reflash.
