Yeah... He's on Google+... Follow him on push bullet to get updates on his rom..
[Nexus 6  General] George_Bushels:
What gapps are you using with 1.9?
[Nexus 6  General] mnsiw:
I used 'pico' for 8.0 from opengapps.org, 'ok google' on lock and off screen isn't working, not a big deal for me, everything else is perfect.

I tried other unofficial gapps for Oreo with same result.
[Nexus 6  General] stinger4321:
Okay.. i don't use social media.. i really don't care about people's personal lives or what they eat .. anyhow i downloaded Pushbullet.. created a Google+ i don't see away to search. Not very intuitive.. there is add a friend but clicking and putting his XDA screen name search does nothing..
[Nexus 6  General] mnsiw:
I just googled 'S.i.X Google Plus' and joined their group.
[Nexus 6  General] genti.b:
Good for you. I'm waiting for a couple of weeks now to join the group, but my request hasn't been accepted yet. Oh well...
[Nexus 6  General] mnsiw:
Maybe they're not taking new member or something. If ypu just need ROM link, someone in crDroid thread posted a hint, you can get it from there.
[Nexus 6  General] genti.b:
Actually one member referred me to SiX ROM Pushbullet, I get updates from there. The only reason I want to be part of the G+ community is to hear from others how is the ROM treating them.
[Nexus 6  General] KobySam87:
Sure....
[Nexus 6  General] espionage724:
A hint? If the ROM is that much of a secret and hidden, why would someone want to use it?
[Nexus 6  General] mnsiw:
Because it's still the best Oreo ROM for Nexus 6 IMO :)

[Nexus 6  General] Azeazezar:
As someone that used it, i am going to say it's close, but i think the unofficial lineageos rom is slightly better. Still with sigma kernel though.
[Nexus 6  General] mnsiw:
Link please!

I found an other ROM for Shamu, Velocity, don't know if it is on XDA, it's working really smooth and stable, initially got some random reboot, then I cleared cache and dvlink, issue resolved.

Is NFC even working?
[Nexus 6  General] alryder:
I think I'm quickly getting in over my head lol. I followed the steps for disabling bcl and there doesn't seem to be any mode set as seen in the screenshot. I better quit before I have to go shopping for a new phone the day after Christmas!

EDIT: I get it now, I had to click open to see the setting. DUH!
[Nexus 6  General] mezerr:
Lol ya.
[Nexus 6  General] brando56894:
Every Oreo ROM I've tried has multiple things wrong with it and I only last a few days before going back to 7.1
[Nexus 6  General] alryder:
The only issue I haven't been able to resolve with beltz so far is that the battery measurement seems to be inaccurate, especially the closer to zero it gets. The other day the ROM showed I had 43% left but when I booted into TWRP it showed 19%. When I booted back into the ROM the TWRP measurement proved to be true. I think I have the throttling issue resolved and installing a newer version of the Pixel Launcher seems to have resolved the launcher crashes.
[Nexus 6  General] alryder:
Here's the screenshot I couldn't provide earlier.
[Nexus 6  General] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
[MENTION=4596349]alryder[/MENTION]: Unless I'm misreading the screenshot, it shows the exact reverse of your statement. According to the information from the screenshot, your phone spent 1 hour and 21 minutes in deep sleep. If it didn't go into deep sleep that bar would not be there.
[Nexus 6  General] brando56894:
I just tried nitrogen the other day since I love the Nougat ROM, but the camera did by with at all for me and neither did GPS.
[Nexus 6  General] setiawanjimmy:
Launcher crashes? When do it crash? Any logs? Any way to replicate?

About this bcl/throttling thing. Look at my screenshot. That's stock kernel settings from the rom. Unmodified.
[Nexus 6  General] alryder:
I was just showing the OP that deep sleep is working on my phone after he said it is not working for him.

It seemed to happen randomly, mostly after closing an app and going back to the home screen. It hasn't happened since I installed "com.google.android.apps.nexuslauncher_8.1.0-4429924-401_minAPI21(nodpi)_apkmirror.com.apk" from APKMirror. I'll look later when I am on the bus to go see my mom and see how far back the logs go.

Thanks for the information about bcl/throttling, what app did you use to take the fist screenshot?
[Nexus 6  General] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
See? I KNEW I misunderstood something. That's what I get for posting before bed.

Merry Xmas.
[Nexus 6  General] camcory:
Looks like this one.
[Nexus 6  General] alryder:
For a clean install wipe everything but internal storage? Is there anything else it's safe to not wipe?
[Nexus 6  General] EternalFlame:
Aye. Nope.
[Nexus 6  General] kidhudi:
i still cant get this to go into deep sleep mode.

all of my screen off time is at 300mhz
[Nexus 6  General] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
Clearly one of your apps is preventing the device from entering deep sleep. [MENTION=4596349]alryder[/MENTION] already pointed out deep sleep is working, and I can attest to that myself, though I don't have a screenshot. Did you do a clean install?
[Nexus 6  General] mezerr:
Just dirty flashed Dec 25 Beltz, overtop of his previous build. That was a disaster. When the phone rebooted, all google apps forced closed. Found out my google account vanished. And can't even re add it. Had to clean install and all seems fine now. Never seen that before.
[Nexus 6  General] Guapo613:
I agree, let the ROM bake in for a couple days and slowly start a fresh restore of your apps. I personally have had apps that would run wild in the background and I would either delete and re-install or find a workaround.

Let the ROM (Android OS) become self aware (Terminator) for a couple days and everything will be just fine. Can't jump to conclusions after a few hours.
[Nexus 6  General] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
[MENTION=6865219]mezerr[/MENTION]: I dirty flashed as well and had no difficulties with my Google apps. Did you wipe everything but data and internal storage prior to flashing, or did you simply slap the update on top of the 12/19 release?
[Nexus 6  General] mezerr:
I just flashed the update without wiping anything. I've done it this way before without issues.
[Nexus 6  General] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
[MENTION=6865219]mezerr[/MENTION]; In this instance, I believe the addition of Wireguard makes simply dropping the update on top of the existing ROM an untenable option.

I always wipe /system when doing an update. I also take the time to update the GApps package at the same time. The first I believe reduces issues; the second is simply for my convenience.
[Nexus 6  General] mezerr:
Makes sense. Thanks.
[Nexus 6  General] kgiri247:
How is the latest Beltz release, any significant performance improvements? Currently running the last androidx release and found it to run a bit smoother than the release from Beltz. Beltz's rom would have daily reboots, AndroidX ive had one in the last week. Curious if Beltz's kernel tweaks has made it as stable or what your guys impression is. Getting tired of flashing and setting up from scratch. Latest Androidx is almost perfect.
[Nexus 6  General] setiawanjimmy:
Can you explain about the daily reboots? When does it happen, what were you doing when it happened, what changes/modifications did you make to the rom, etc. Any info on that is appreciated.
[Nexus 6  General] kgiri247:
This was using the first 8.1 build. No modifications we're done completely stock. I noticed it most when having a chrome window open the system would become unresponsive and reboot. This might have been fixed in the last two builds, I might flash just to see how it runs but so far the X build has played very nicely with my Shamu. Thank you guys for your hard work and keeping our device relevent. Also had the issue on 8.0 build, Camcory's latest build has been the most stable 8.1 build I have tested. I feel like it is kernel related. I have issues like others have reported with wakelocks and deep sleep, but still getting battery live similar to nougets. Curious if we will see custom Kernels on 8.1.
[Nexus 6  General] setiawanjimmy:
If you have flashed the latest rom, please lemme know how it goes.

Well, i haven't had any deep sleep problem so far.
[Nexus 6  General] raajivsh999:
Been running Beltz since the beginning of November. The most stable ROM for me. Never had any issues/reboots. Always a clean flash with device preference, apps and data restore done from google drive to save me time. Every ROM we try will act differently on the same make and model.
[Nexus 6  General] Markeee:
I've been running and testing all 3 Oreo 8.1 roms the in the past weeks S.i.X's , Belts and Nitrogen and to me all are equally stable

I stuck with Nitrogen because that rom has been more actively updated with 3 or 4 updates just in the past week or so and its a bit more advanced with more added customization than the other 2 have at this point
[Nexus 6  General] EternalFlame:
Newest beltz build battery stats, totally dig it :svetius:
[Nexus 6  General] johnb380:
Ya but BT is always crashing on it for me. So now I'm running 12.25 Velocity rom and it's amazing! No BT crashes and battery life is pretty good too.

I've been trying all the 8.1 roms on Shamu and found this build to be the best out of all of them.
[Nexus 6  General] EternalFlame:
Ha weird, i had the same issues with all the other ROMs, BT works without problems since beltz 8.1 came out. Well i'm glad you found your 'perfect' ROM. :svetius:
[Nexus 6  General] nixie2121:
where is this velocity?
[Nexus 6  General] genti.b:
Same here. I decided to keep using NitrogenOS because is stable enough for daily use, no lag or reboots and has a lot of features. Still doesn't have NFC working, but I don't use it so it's OK by me.

That's good, but how to install pixel launcher and delete the pre-installed one?
[Nexus 6  General] vlaf:
Anyone on Beltz, please do some test for me.If sweep up to wake gestures is enabled, does phone goes to deep sleep? Please test for 1-2 hours.Thanks in advance.
[Nexus 6  General] AccuNeal:
What do you use to set your kernel gestures? I use Ex Kernel Manager and have DT2W active and deep sleep functions very well. I'll try it with swipe to wake and let you know.

(edit for my reference - deep sleep = 5h18m)
[Nexus 6  General] EternalFlame:
Try SD Maid fom PS to uninstall it. Then install the sideloaded .apk after rebooting via file manager, i use Nova launcher tho.
[Nexus 6  General] vlaf:
I use kernel adiutor.
[Nexus 6  General] AccuNeal:
Deep sleep is now 6h 20m. So it has been in deep sleep since setting swipe up to wake a little over an hour ago. It seems to be working well. I have lift to check clock turned on also on Beltz 171225. Opengapps nano, Bluetooth on, location high.
[Nexus 6  General] alryder:
Has anyone else noticed that notification vibrations are a lot weaker with the 12/25 release of beltz or did my motor coincidentally start going bad the same time I installed the ROM?
[Nexus 6  General] mezerr:
Vibration Control was added to the beltz kernel for 12/25. So, I'm assuming the default value was changed.
[Nexus 6  General] wolfballz:
Nephilim 8.1 has been rock solid. Over 6 hours sot.
[Nexus 6  General] Markeee:
Must of missed this one already tried S.i.X's , Belts and Nitrogen

flashing it right now done see how it compares
[Nexus 6  General] alryder:
Is that something that can be modified by something like EX Kernel Manager or only by the ROM developer? Also, do you know if EX Kernel Manager adjusts to the current Kernel settings and not make any unknown or unexpected changes by default? Thanks for your help!
[Nexus 6  General] mezerr:
Yes. EXKM can modify the vibration strength of the beltz kernel. EXKM doesn't make any changes to the kernel when installed. Yes it can be used to modify the beltz kernel. Ex: vibration, cpu govenor etc
[Nexus 6  General] wolfballz:
Its made by the same great dev that made S.i.X
[Nexus 6  General] Markeee:
Nice rom seems more snappy for sure and definitely more feature rich then the previous 3 I'll stay here till something better comes along

Does this rom get updated often like how often ?
[Nexus 6  General] mezerr:
S.I.X VS Nephilim? Or.. does S.I.X end with 7.1.2, and Nephilim is OREO?
[Nexus 6  General] Akhilesh S V:
Nephilim has Customization options but SiX is close to stock android. And SiX doesn't end with 7.1.2 there are Oreo builds available on AFH
[Nexus 6  General] vlaf:
Add widgets to home screen working (chrome widget for example) on latest nephilim?
[Nexus 6  General] alryder:
I've had three random reboots also that I have noticed. It happened all three times when my phone was not being used. The only modification I made was to install the latest Pixel Launcher (com.google.android.apps.nexuslauncher_8.1.0-4429924-401_minAPI21(nodpi)_apkmirror.com.apk). What, if any, logs would you like for this?
[Nexus 6  General] fkfmfz:
Have anyone tried a older version of Nova or pixel launcher, I know they work on Nova version 5.4.1
[Nexus 6  General] vasolini:

Nice coz if you watch this below video viewing last months 8.0 version of nephilim you can see there's a ton of customization options missing from the 8.1 release maybe we won't have to wait to long for them to get added back in is all

[Nexus 6  General] mezerr:
Running Beltz 8.1 with ElementalX 5.0.2. Works good. But not sure it's any better then using stock kernel with Beltz. Uses the ElementalX gov instead of Interactive.

Standby on the lastest Nephilim is incredible!!
[Nexus 6  General] Markeee:
How do you get it to say 20d left like that?
[Nexus 6  General] mezerr:
I just clean flashed this rom. Used the download from his Google+ page, and his recommend Google apps. First off, launcher looked terrible. Google play wouldn't open. Google calendar constantly crashed. Also, elementalx wouldn't boot with it. Reverted back to beltz.

Edit: Flashed again. ROM works good. I know the previous issue, but don't care to get into it. It had to do with flashing ElementalX kernel, which doesn't work with this ROM, and then flashing the previous kernel back into place. Caused issues.
[Nexus 6  General] fkfmfz:
Yep, user error
[Nexus 6  General] alryder:
For me, standby on beltz is awesome too.
[Nexus 6  General] wolfballz:
Its just the normal Substratum but its preinstalled. If you want to theme your phone go for it.
[Nexus 6  General] BobAzzon:

I came from Pure Nexus went to AICP 8.0 then installed ran with and tested all the new 8.1 roms beltz, SIX, Nitrogen and now Nephilim

To me they all seemed equally stable but at this point sticking with Nephilim until something better comes along it has more customization and a bit more snappy to me then the rest

A little OT but does anybody know how to turn the "automatically lock ..." to "automatically lock never" in 8.1 ?

I´m using Macrodroid to have my device unlocked while it´s connected to my home WiFi, but when the timer ends and the automatically lock kicks in i have to manually unlock it again and so on... or is there any other workaround to get rid of that annoyance ? TIA lads.
[Nexus 6  General] AccuNeal:
I use "trusted places" in security to keep phone unlocked at home. It works for me.
[Nexus 6  General] EternalFlame:
Tried that the last few weeks but it's sadly too unreliable and mostly not woking in my case :<
[Nexus 6  General] fkfmfz:
Try to change screenlock to none?
[Nexus 6  General] EternalFlame:
Ye but then it's permanently unlocked, or do you mean to reverse it, but the app doesn't seems to be that intelligent to set a lock method nor can i set something else then 'lock when disconnected' but that doesn't work either, fk it i figured that beltz has quick unlock inbuilt , i can live with that ;()
[Nexus 6  General] AccuNeal:
I like that quick unlock, too. Eliminating that one finger poke gives the feeling of being slick and futuristic.
[Nexus 6  General] EternalFlame:
Hehe indeed, i also recalibrated my compass via maps, now the trusted places smartlock works too \o/

I keep running Nephilim because it runs well on my device most of the time. I don't heavily mod my device and run it light. My only issue is the phone slows down to a crawl a couple times a day. Like when I leave for work, get in my car and run Google maps while disconnecting from my wifi. It literally stops for a minute. (Log time I know) But it usually clears up within 5 minutes. Really hoping 1.0 fixed that. Flashing now.

It's easy enough to extract and edit the "installer.sh" file in the official gapps to work with 8.1:

Change:

req_android_sdk="26";
req_android_version="8.0";

to

req_android_sdk="27";
req_android_version="8.1";

I'd do this, or use the "dev recommended" ones instead of those from an unknown source.
