I could not get NFC to turn on. But great, smooth, fast ROM.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] johnb380:
That is my point that it doesn't say flash Gapps like every other Rom thread does. It says step 1. Clean Flash Rom Only... Then goes to step 2. Flash Busybox... And so on.

Also when you download the Rom zip you'll see it's over 600mb and that's not normal IMO that alone indicates there's Gapps included.

Have a good night.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] jlwtformer:
Fair enough. I don't flash ROMs often, and would not have been keen enough to notice the size. As for the instructions, my mistake was to assume "ROM only" meant ROM + Gapps.

Have a good evening as well.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] garywojdan81:
Frankie is a great developer and if it doesn't explicitly state that gapps are required, or if they're not listed in the flashing order, then by implication, a separate gapps package is not required.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] jlwtformer:
I understand that now, and have learned to notice that moving forward.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] garywojdan81:
I'm not a developer but I'm pretty sure that's not how it works.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] DuckBread:
Just a heads up: Camera doesn't work with built in or Google Camera app.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] MartinN6:
sorry - cannot confirm - builtin camera and google-camera work both pretty good at my device.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] rester555:
Working fine here..
[Nexus 6 Android Development] DuckBread:
Yup, reboot fixed camera. Apologies...
[Nexus 6 Android Development] G0rg0ne:
I have a little problem, my screen is never off, allways look a digital watch, screensaver is off.

Edit: Reinstaled all again and now all is OK. Bluetooth work without Arise, just a force close at boot for first time. Paired with no problem with my bluetooth speaker and my LG G watch.

Now S.I.X become my dayly.... THX [MENTION=2564710]fkfmfz[/MENTION]

There is a small bug;

When I press the home button from WhatsApp with the keyboard pulled up on the home screen the keyboard doesn't disappear
[Nexus 6 Android Development] trojan horse:
Hi, I am able to turn on hotspot at 2.4 GHz, but my oyher devices are not able to see it. This is on both RC3 And RC4 builds, clean flashes. As for 5GHz, it doesnt even turn on.

Other than that, the ROM is good enough for me to use as a daily driver. Great thanks to the developer.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] gothy.gothy:
No reboot or force close in 14 hours. What theme are you on?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] mikevb:
I didn't install any apps at all (aside from Magisk Manager, which was installed when flashing Magisk). I went through the setup then let it update the pre-installed apps and let it just settle before I did anything and it started rebooting.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] gothy.gothy:
Have no clue then
[Nexus 6 Android Development] The Doctor04:
I was getting them as well on v1.5, but not as bad as v1.4. random reboots didn't start for me until I got all the apps setup/restored and I started to tweak my settings and the pow! Frankie will get it figured out, it will just take time. He fantastic at what he does so I'm not sweating it. :good:
[Nexus 6 Android Development] evolishesh:
Is nfc working now?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] h.baraary:
Dirty flashed v1.5 over v1.3, hadn't a single reboot until i turned WiFi on. Every time i turned wifi on, after 10 sec phone rebooted. But not a single reboot when I'm on data.

You guys that have reboot problem on v1.5, can you check this?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] gothy.gothy:
why didn't you try clean flashing? no reboots here when turning the WiFi on
[Nexus 6 Android Development] h.baraary:
It's not a problem for me, i don't use WiFi anyway, I'm on data all the time.

I just want to know if anybody else who have this problem can confirm this or not to find out what's causing this :laugh:
[Nexus 6 Android Development] dparrothead1:
It plainly CLEAN FLASH. If you can't, or won't, follow instructions......then don't post problems.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] dparrothead1:
No, I'm not blind. You said you dirty flashed and had r/R's when you turned on wifi.....and you went on to say that wanted people to check so you could see what is causing it.

YOU caused it by dirty flashing.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] MaxPower742:
1.5 was the most unstable for me so far. I know that may not be very helpful info since I don't have any logs, but I had a hard time even getting another rom onto my phone to flash in order to get the thing working again. It was rebooting before the xfer of the zip would finish. On 1.5 I couldn't even get mobile data and it was rebooting very frequently.

EDIT: Yes I did clean flash, no I did not restore all my apps. I couldn't even get play store to update.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] bass0324:
Just upgraded to this rom from nougat, glad to see development continue even if google has forgotten us. Great work!

I am also getting random reboots, used to get them when changing the kernel on nougat (used to get them all the time with flash kernel in the 1.6 version range but was then fixed in later versions, not sure which one exactly.) But this seems familiar to that issue. Ill see if i can look up what was fixed there to make my phone work and see if the same was applied to this kernel. Let me know what logs i can get to help you out with this, would love to keep this development moving forward and keep this phone alive a little longer.

And yes this was a clean flash, with all apps restored from the play store and not through titanium
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Birddog:
I'm guilty. I dirty flashed. I couldn't bear waiting for 180+ apps to be restored and reconfiguring everything. That really takes a long time.. Fortunately, everything seems to be working! No problem with gps, wifi, Bluetooth, etc. All my apps seem to be working just fine. Very pleased.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] magnamentis:
both is wrong, if reboots happen on a specific rom only it's rom related but does not mean something is wrong with the rom, user space can misbehave and it would be forgiven by another rom/kernel combo, hence it's related but that does not name the culprit.

if the rom has a bug, everyone will experience it who is using the same setup and is performing the same commands, hence to narrow things down

logs always help, even though you won't see much, they can be compared and eventually and most probably similarities show up that would hint to the culprit.

to discuss it down and compare app usage and all the many possible setups that can vary makes almost no sense, there are too many variables that can be combined in an almost endless number of combos, hence logs are the way to go and if you have a log, just post it and let the dev and eventually other tech-savvy users decide whether it's helpful or not, 100 eyes see more than two ;)

using the opportunity to express my admiration for this early build, i had it up and running flawlessly within 1h, give and take a few minuts, and it just worked, rarely seen such a smooth transition with that many features at such an early stage, with the exception of [MENTION=3913401]atl4ntis[/MENTION] 's cataclysm of the old times of course LOL

EDIT: perhaps i should mention that i have/had zero RRs but my display goes black if i don't unlock form lockscreen, means if i let it boot and let the lockscreen go dark i have to reboot to get something more than just a black display. furher i have t add that i use no lockscreen security as well as display always on while charging form dev-options which i suspect playing a role in that.

because i use features and a specific setup for reason and not for fun i don't use this as a daily driver, use a nandroid to update when i find time and watch till all things i need will be included but that does not mean it can't serve as a DD for someone with less specific and/or demanding reqirements ;) :good:
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Alxoom33:
Flashed 1.5 clean rooted and installed Busybox. I got an initial reeboot when I opened to set-up clean. Set up, steady for a while and when I was streaming radio, it reebooted again (only once). Otherwise, pretty stable.

I think there is something rom or gapps related to the reeboots that have been observed. However, for a beta release it has been pretty good.

I'm back to stock 7.1.1 for a while, since I need the phone to be rock steady for work. I Can't play with the phone while I am working, but will restore from my Nandroid when I have time to test further.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] imseanross1:
Anyone else having random reboots? My Nexus 6 is getting pretty warm while on the charger, don't know if I would call it hot, then it randomly reboots!

I am using a Tenergy QC 2.0 18w charger....
[Nexus 6 Android Development] HiGhDRo3o5:
Clean flashed 1.5 with no mods at all and kept getting random reboots to the point where i went back to 1.3
[Nexus 6 Android Development] The Doctor04:
Use that search function mate and you'll get the answer you are looking for
[Nexus 6 Android Development] cfrank38:
I got this problems recently . But the fault was the battery. I got shutdowns with 50% battery. Replacing battery resolved the problems of getting hot phone and shutdowns although went away.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] blesal:
Something wrong in V1.5 with battery stats
[Nexus 6 Android Development] marsian0:
Should be your end, not problem here!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] dparrothead1:
Sorry that you've had a bad experience. I've been on this rom since the first build. I've used it as a D/D from the first. 1.2 had a serious battery drain, but every other build has been very stable.

You shouldn't warn others from trying a very good 8.0 rom.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] bass0324:
Resorted back to nougat for the time being, but wanted to report it here if it wasn't reported, when using my wireless headphones via Bluetooth, my audio would start perfect, but when I would pause music and wait a half hour or so and try to play music again, the audio was cutting in and out. Happened with both poweramp and music app in the rom, audio wouldn't come back until I rebooted either

EDIT: If you want me to test updated builds, I'd be willing to flash back to verify, looking forward to this being my daily.

[Nexus 6 Android Development] M.Sami:
Same here, toggling the BT off/on fixes this for me
[Nexus 6 Android Development] bass0324:
OK cool, not sure I tried that honestly, but having consistent bt is a deal breaker for me for my daily, but willing to help out and didn't see that reported in the past few pages so just wanted to let the dev know.

Like I said willing to flash a new build to try it out again to test
[Nexus 6 Android Development] svd74:
(1.5 ) the phone makes a restart every one hour :(
[Nexus 6 Android Development] RoadXY:
No issues whatsoever.

No random reboots.

ROM is super smooth and sleeps like a baby when not in use.

One thing I have is some inconsistent Bluetooth connections to my Android Wear watch and car kit.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] fkfmfz:
updated OP, enjoy!!!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] jayadev01:
Link to Open Gapps has been updated in OP. Thanks a lot frankie. ROM going Super Smooth and everything's cool. Enjoying this a lot!!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Birddog:
Running great. Just sent a donation. Thanks.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] alatnet:
Great rom. Havent had much issues besides not being able to use viper4android audio mod version via magisk and wishing for NFC.

Boots extremely fast compared to the last aosp released by google.

Did do a dirty flash from 7.1.1 aosp but havent had much issues.

Magisk installed and working along with Safetynet passing.

Take your time and keep up the good work!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] steel89ita:
Great ROM so far.

Using it since the first RCs and didn't have much problems apart obvious since it's a beta.

The only problem I have is that Netflix is not working on these Oreo roms (maybe a kernel issue?).

Magisk is enabled, SafetyNet is passing and Magisk Hide is enabled for Netflix (running well on 7.1.2 roms).
[Nexus 6 Android Development] svd74:
how to turn off the clock on the lock screen (black screen) ?

ty ?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] aerohp:
I assume you're talking about the always on clock?

Go to settings > display > advanced

Scroll all the way down and turn off always on display
[Nexus 6 Android Development] rester555:
Anyone having issues using voice to text on 1.6? I'm wondering if it is a gapps issue
[Nexus 6 Android Development] alatnet:
Ok, so if you use the viper4android module in the magisk repository and the viper4android app (downloaded from the v4a site), the app will run fine.

Dont know why though, it's wierd.

Havent tried testing bluetooth audio but speaker audio works, though it seems to lower the volume over time for some reason, dont know why.

Other than that, v4a does work.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] magnamentis:
as a workaround you can switch but media audio in bluetooth settings off. you find that under the gear box on the right of your paired devices in bluetooth settings. there are devcies that never got rid of such issues in 2-3 years which is why i choose this as a standard setting, i never make calls via bluetooth only media audio like music, navigation etc. but that's only one possible use case while for all those who need all BT channels like phone, media auto etc. have to wait for a fix to get it all.

---------- Post added at 01:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:57 AM ----------

same like above but use wear channel instead of media if available, can't check in detail because i'm currently on N-DD but should be there as far as i remember.

---------- Post added at 02:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:59 AM ----------

did you try V4A in permissive SELinux mode ?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] alatnet:
I guess by default, SELinux is set in permissive mode when i checked the settings.

It wasnt the V4A drivers, it was the app itself. Literally when i try to open it, it errors out with an unspecified link error.

But i switched to the magisk repo version and it does work aside from the weird volume lowering over time thing on speakers. Might be a blip or something.

Will try it sometime with my car audio to see if it's only my nexus's speakers or if it affects all audio outputs.

EDIT:

Had to revert back to aosp 7.1.

While this is a good rom, there were some issues for me.

One of which it randomly locks up and reboots.

Another is that when pressing the power to get out of sleep, half the screen is drawn where as the other is not and causes a crash.

Might be because of a dirty flash, but i dont know at the moment...

So im going to revert.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Alxoom33:
Flashed reebooted for a long time, now rock steady. So far so good!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] mnsiw:
I flashed SuperSU just because of this Viper4Android issue, in Magisk it fail with error while installing, can you please elaborate it how to do it, like I have to visit

https://github.com/Magisk-Modules-Repo/ViPER4Android

and download it as zip file (ViPER4Android-master) and flash it from TWRP and then install Viper4Android apk?

Edit: Thanks, got it working :)
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Shmew699:
Just checked

Im debating returning to a 7.x build, the rom works great other than locking up and rebooting occasionally for me. Thankfully its only sporadically. Little enough to enjoy oreoa features.

Happy to know the developer works on this rom. I will be donating for that!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nick w:
Great rom and superb progress but here is why I am going back to a 7.x rom

Daily random reboots

SystemUI seemed to have got corrupt, menus and settings not rendering. Had to perform a twrp restore

Mic has static noise. No issues with other 7 ROMs

Screen locks

Other than that. It's great.

The newest update I found caused more random issues.

Just my findings.

Thanks again.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] rijazbinu:
bud try to cover your proximity :) its gone? . then go to settings > power > ambient display (turn that off):D

could anyone tell is there gapps in latest build? am asking coz in download section there is link for gapps :confused:
[Nexus 6 Android Development] gothy.gothy:
The Gapps are those specified in the link. They are not included
[Nexus 6 Android Development] ganparty:
I've been running v1.3 for a week with absolutely 0 issues. Was going to upgrade to the newest build but sounds like folks are having some problems. 1.3 is rock solid for me.

Clean flash, rooted with SuperSU. Not really customized beyond that (no themes or anything). Using the Pixel Launcher3 and can't get the schedule/agenda widgets to work, but that's the only gripe--the widgets work fine with other launchers.

Thanks for making a great ROM!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] svd74:
1.6 this is good !! works fine, no problem !! I will use it for a week.

Thank you for the job :)
[Nexus 6 Android Development] gothy.gothy:
You won't have the chance, as 1.7 is about to emerge :)
[Nexus 6 Android Development] bultras:
1.6 is stable enough for daily use. We'll see how the battery life is... Job well done!

Only these two minor issues:

1. When the back button kills an application, it resetting my wallpaper to the default one

2. LED notifications do not work
[Nexus 6 Android Development] bass0324:
So after having issues with 1.5, reverted back to nougat. 1.6 came out so I figured what the hell, let's flash it and scratch the itch :) 1.6 is as stable as it gets for a daily driver. No more random reboots, no Bluetooth issues, substratum works flawlessly, couldn't be happier, great rom and good work on fixing the bugs
[Nexus 6 Android Development] mikevb:
I got this while I was going through my settings while also reinstalling apps with TiBu. Reboot fixed it for me and no issues since.

Aside from that:

1.5 was giving me near constant reboots, but 1.6 has been super stable (aside from the previously mentioned issue).

I did notice that in "Security & Location" settings, app ops is listed twice (they lead to the same page) and they're not aligned with or the same color as the other options in the list.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Locoman_:
v1.3 has been rock stable for me too. I got a few RRs when it was first installed but that's it. I've been considering clean flashing the latest but I might hold out for a while longer due to the "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" philosophy.

.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] magnamentis:
upgrading is not mandatory, hence he can stay on 1.6 for a week and update to the then current version without furhter issue,

of course i know how you meant it LOL but since you felt to post that i thought i can post this, just for the fun of it and hoping for a good sense of humour ;)

enjoy further

to return a bit on topic i still encountered no further issues other than the black screen if i let the lockscreen go off without previously unlocking it with a swipe. i will test whether it's the same with a pattern or PIN next time i restore this rom from nandroid to update it. this time i didn't have enought time make further tests.

Been on v.16 for 2 days. No crashes or reeboots.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] johnb380:
Guys if you havent clean flashed the newest version then reporting anything is pointless as each version can be and usually is a big difference from the last version. Development on Oreo is moving fast.

Out of every person that says My phone reboots I'm going back to Nougat... NO LOGS POSTED. Why you guys don't want the ROM to get better? It takes me 3 seconds to post all 3 logs for a developer why is it so hard for everyone?

Clean flash is the ONLY way to know if it's your dirty system or the Roms issue. So clean flash and quit telling us your going back to nougat cuz no one cares it's your device do what you want.

But if your serious about helping then search and read for 5 mins learn how to get logs and post them after issues like reboots.

Good luck
[Nexus 6 Android Development] mnsiw:
Anyone dirty flashed 1.6 over 1.5? How is it working?

I did 3 dirty flashes over 1.5, and installed gapps 8.0 micro.

It's really stable, no problems here at all.

[Nexus 6 Android Development] imaGine00:
Super good expérience with Oreo on my shamu, thank you for the hard work ;)

Just a question: any way to make it work with f2fs partition ? I had to go back to ext4 tout make it work..!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Birddog:
I did. No problem yet. If one develops, I won't complain about it. I just can't bear going through the lengthy process of configuring all my apps and getting set up again.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] RoadXY:
Seems like my device isn't sleeping with Bluetooth enabled.

I know it was fixed at some point.

However I also read somewhere it was reverted because of it causing crashes.

Anyone having this crazy drain on network standby? Im on 1.6 clean flashed of course.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] The Doctor04:
After about 24 hours on v1.6 (best version yet BTW) ROM started to get random reboots, jank, and some other weirdness. That first 24 hours was almost flawless. Very rock solid and pretty much a daily driver. Battery life is better too on this build. I noticed Google Assistant was missing, which is fine. Sick work Frankie, can't wait for v1.7!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Alxoom33:
Hey, what's up Doc? Been on v 1.6 for 3 days now, no random reshoots. Rock steady. Also, noticed that it takes well to Substratum Themes! However, I can't wait for 1.7, as well!
