Strange, I dirty flashed the latest RC and its been running smooth with no FCs. On top of that using xposed module as well but no issue whatsoever

Yeah, most probably something wrong at my end :) maybe it was because of kernel mode

[MENTION=347109]spastico[/MENTION] If you use magisk, there is a module to fix netflix
[Nexus 6  General] alryder:
I'm running the 1/30 release of Beltz and I'm rooted with Magisk 15.3 and I can install and use the most recent version of Netflix with no issues.

Edit: I didn't have to install the Netflix Magisk module to get Netflix to work either, it worked without any modifications after rooting with Magisk.
[Nexus 6  General] Blaiser47:
Same here.
[Nexus 6  General] spastico:
Thanks

I haven't installed magisk yet. I'm still using SuperSU.

I got Netflix to work by sideloading it.
[Nexus 6  General] garywojdan81:
Ditto
[Nexus 6  General] wavedashdoc:
Beltz, Camcory and DU all have google widevine for Netflix to work out or the box.

[Nexus 6  General] stivakos:
I just found what to do while I'll enjoy my night beer, tonight.:)

Will be available today?

Seems very promising though.
[Nexus 6  General] franatic08:
No problem here.

Latest Beltz, Netflix from Play store.
[Nexus 6  General] gothy.gothy:
I hope! :)
[Nexus 6  General] stivakos:
To clarify, I don't ask for an ETA, I never do that.

I respect the hard work of the devs and I am grateful for what they give to us.

You, devs, give life to a piece of plastic and metal.

That's... more than enough.
[Nexus 6  General] spastico:
Yeah, I think it's because I need to switch from SuperSU to Magisk.

BT deep sleep issue is solved in Nephilim 1.8
[Nexus 6  General] head_banger:
Yeah it deep sleeps now but doesn't connect or disconnect from your Bluetooth devices when they are switched on or off, bloody Bluetooth bug. Most other ROMs have got this sorted

I'm meaning this when phone is in deep sleep
[Nexus 6  General] xconwayx:
I just did a clean install of Nephilim 1.8. Hearthstone shows up as an application not available for my device now. Dirty flash from 1.7 works just fine.
[Nexus 6  General] def1003:
delete plz...
[Nexus 6  General] adm1jtg:
Does neph 1.8 resolve the issue with calendar widgets not working on most launchers
[Nexus 6  General] AccuNeal:
No. I just tried it, and "problem loading widget" is still present.
[Nexus 6  General] stivakos:
Yes I think is a common issue of 8.1 ROMS.

Needs to be fixed in an upcoming build.

It also affects many widgets I tried to display (clock, TV time etc).
[Nexus 6  General] camcory:
Im not familiar with this issue any widget or particular like google calendar or aosp clock widgets? Like this?

These are on Pixel launcher and stock Launcher3.
[Nexus 6  General] def1003:
on beltz whats with the blinky camera zoom in flashing thing in the status bar when using camera or snapchat or anything camera involved?
[Nexus 6  General] stivakos:
Yes like this.

This error also occurs with some other widgets.

Didn't try all of them but it appears on some aosp widgets but not only at them.

E.g. my favourite TV Time.

It's a loss but certainly not a deal breaker.

Also I installed Sony Xperia Clock in order to replace the big clock in the home screen.
[Nexus 6  General] Markeee:
Always hate doing a clean install just to difficult to remember all those little Rom and Android preference settings gotta be way to save all your setting even as a reference save so you quickly get back to where you were?

Looking for any suggestions on an easier way without like using Titanium which kind of defeats the purpose of doing a clean install ?
[Nexus 6  General] stivakos:
After the 20th clean installation, you set the preferences almost with your eyes closed!:laugh:

But seriously, I have the same question.

Also, Titanium Backup is not intented for extensive use.

It may generate issues you can't resolve without performing a new clean install.
[Nexus 6  General] genti.b:
"After the 20th clean installation"... Haha... So true
[Nexus 6  General] AccuNeal:
Certainly not all 8.1 ROMs have this issue. My primary Shamu runs ABC ROM from [MENTION=5379942]setiawanjimmy[/MENTION].

My secondary Shamu is for testing ROMs, which i do multiple times per week. I can confirm that ABC and beltz have no such issues with widgets.
[Nexus 6  General] adm1jtg:
Never had this issue on any other 8.1 rom, velocity, aicp, lineageos and my current... beltz do not have these widget issues

---------- Post added at 07:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:25 PM ----------

I use business calendar widget and it has worked for me on ever OS and rom I have run since my samsung vibrant days. Every one EXCEPT for Nephilim Renown that is. To get it to work you must use an older version of nova (4.x) or the "built in launcher" all other launchers I have tried Nova 5.x and almost every pixel and launcher3 version I can find, including lawnchair do not work on Nephilim Renown for any calendar widgets.
[Nexus 6  General] fkfmfz:
Strange on Nova and Pixel launcher works
[Nexus 6  General] xconwayx:
Big calendar works fine for me as well. Does the condensed schedule calendar work for you?
[Nexus 6  General] Markeee:
Bump this back up for any suggestions ?
[Nexus 6  General] pinkfloyd3:
Wipe Dalvik/ART cache, system, and cache

No need to wipe data

Sorry for my bad English
[Nexus 6  General] adm1jtg:
I always use the agenda styled calendar widgets. Maybe its only specific ones, and please remember I was only asking if your most recent version still had this issue as I hadn't loaded your most recent though pretty sure I had the issues on either 1.6 or 1.7 I don't remember which version i had loaded but was one of those.

Also just for the record I was not meaning to be negative just stating what my personal experiences were and such. I do like the rom and will likely go back to it again at some point but for me the issues mentioned are real for me and thus for the moment I have gone elsewhere

What Oreo ROMs have center clock now?
[Nexus 6  General] gcounts:
Nephilim
[Nexus 6  General] wavedashdoc:

abc roms battery life was awful clean flashed took a nap and lost 10% battery
[Nexus 6  General] stivakos:
I was on the same boat.

Battery drain was enormous. Device never gone deep sleep.
[Nexus 6  General] vlaf:
Please guys with ABC, try this gapps https://xdaforums.com/android/apps-games/arm-unofficial-opengapps-builds-android-t3743495

I'm using pico gapps with latest ABC and my phone sleep very well, battery life is also very good.

These sleep problems with most oreo roms for me, is related to gapps packages (maybe I'm wrong).
[Nexus 6  General] def1003:
thanks i will give it a try

Any roms that have implemented hold back button to kill, and an easy clear all recents button?
[Nexus 6  General] Cristian86:
If it's this (blue button in screenshot) what you mean with "clear all recents button", than Nephilim should be worth a try (I'm not saying it's the only ROM with this feature). The position of the button is customisible in the nephilim settiings.

[IMG="clear all recent panels"]http://photos.google.com/photo/AF1QipOulTcstuaZv4xxRf299Ra9lWp24WhaHQ0sUo-X[/IMG]
[Nexus 6  General] adm1jtg:
Most roms have an option to use smartbar. With smartbar you can "program" your buttons for long press and double tap actions. Thus you could as I do program long press on back button to kill app. I also program double tap on recents to turn off screen
[Nexus 6  General] ajaynsurana:
DU 8.1 also has similar option :svetius:
[Nexus 6  General] def1003:
answers and assistance appreciated thank you!
[Nexus 6  General] stivakos:
I run latest Nephilim build and after 18 hours battery drain is here again!

My question is, can I flash over a different gapps without any other action (aka clean flash)?
[Nexus 6  General] ktmom:
I would dirty flash then different gapps.

Edit:

Though before throwing in the towel if the problem comes back, you should clean flash.

"Good judgment comes from experience, and a lot of that comes from bad judgment." - Will Rogers
[Nexus 6  General] stivakos:
The process of dirty flash is"Wipe Cache/Dalvic/System then flash gapps? Am I right? Or just wipe Cache/Dalvic?
[Nexus 6  General] garywojdan81:
Wipe cache/dalvik/system

Flash rom/gapps/root method
[Nexus 6  General] stivakos:
Understood. Much appreciated.

I'll dirty flash tonight and when a new Nephilim build will come out, I'll perform a clean flash.
[Nexus 6  General] def1003:
its up on the google+ page guess ill give this rom a shot after some terrible others...
[Nexus 6  General] Guapo613:
If your experiencing battery drain issues that nobody else is having, maybe a complete wipe before flashing is in order. I personally have best results when completely wiping before flashing.

Nephilim 1.9 is out new builds just popping there
[Nexus 6  General] def1003:
anybody have any problems flashing elementalx over nephilim? i just want the color calibration(miss deep black or harley-tech) really unless im missing something and can change it already thanks if you can help!
[Nexus 6  General] stivakos:
There's no better timing like this.

New Nephilim build is out.

It's time to try another gapps version with that.

Finger crossed, starting clean flash.

P.S. Sorry for my english, it is not ny native language, trying hard to be as clear as I can.
[Nexus 6  General] selw0nk:
I flashed ElementalX over Nephilim and I'm stuck on the boot screen. I will stick with the stock kernel for now.
[Nexus 6  General] def1003:
glad i didnt do it i guess then

hmm how about adding vibration to double tap to wake also have to use a kernel manager to get that to work right?
[Nexus 6  General] xconwayx:
What other Gapps would you use?
[Nexus 6  General] stivakos:
I already made a clean flash of the latest Nefilim build and I used the pico gapps, Vlaf mentionted about 2 pages back.

He reported no deep sleep issues with ABC ROM and this version of gapps.

Fingers crossed.
[Nexus 6  General] adm1jtg:
Nephilim 1.9

same question as before... do the widgets for calendar agenda now work on all launchers?
[Nexus 6  General] stivakos:
NO! The same behavior appears here too.

I use Nova Launcher, if that matters though.
[Nexus 6  General] adm1jtg:
Well I do know if you use an older nova launcher version and just never let it upgrade it should work fine, never could get lawnchair or other pixel style launchers to work 100% though except of course the included one and for me having a 100% working agenda widget is critical
[Nexus 6  General] gcounts:
No!...no...no!...because Frankie doesn't care if your widgets work or not! How many times do you need to hear it? I will state it clearly...FRANKIE DOESNT USE THE WIDGETS YOU ARE USING, AND NEVER WILL. FRANKIE DEVELOPS NEPIHILIM FOR HIS PERSONAL USE AND DOES NOT ACCEPT OR ASK FOR FEATURE REQUESTS. YOU HAVE HEARD THIS HERE, AND IN NEPHILIM TELEGRAM GROUP. IF YOU WANT TO USE THAT WIDGET, YOUVE AMSWERED YOUR OWN QUESTION......USE THE OLDER VERSION OF NOVA YOUVE BEEN TOLD TO USE BEFORE.
[Nexus 6  General] BobAzzon:
So how's idle drain on 1.9?
[Nexus 6  General] Guapo613:
Is there a specific GAPPS to flash with Nephilim 1.9 or just the standard OpenGAPPS Pico??
[Nexus 6  General] wolfballz:
The dev recommends his gapps package. Search for it on AFH. However, I use opengapps micro with no issues.
[Nexus 6  General] Guapo613:
Is that ATHF or AFH? ?
[Nexus 6  General] Gysper:

[Nexus 6  General] Cristian86:
Hi guys,

using now a few of the Oreo Custom ROMs on my Shamu I was wondering why some of them are snapy (as e.g. Nephilim or Nitrogen) and other rather smoth (as e.g. Beltz or ABC)? It's a different user expirience and I woult like to know why it is so. It doesn't bother me, I'm just curious. I have no clue about programming, developing and so on. I'm just clean flashing this amazing peaces of software beeing happy to have them.

And just to get things right: the mentioned ROMs in this post are just examples for behaviour/user exprience I noticed on my device. Other may have expirienced something else with this or other roms on the same device. My question is not a complaint, it is due to curiosity. I used the mentioned ROMs as daly driver and was pleased with each one of them (actually I can't decide with wich one to stick).

So, can someone explain me (rahter for dummys) the reason?
[Nexus 6  General] dramalicious:
Beacouse devs sets animation speeds to 0.5 in developer options. Some people call this snappy. Eh..
[Nexus 6  General] fkfmfz:
Some tweaks are done to the set values within fw config.xml and preset the options to 0.5x in Dev settings also helps.

Nephilim Renown Oreo
[Nexus 6  General] Cristian86:
Aha, ok, thanks!
[Nexus 6  General] dramalicious:
Personally i don.t get this..why set faster animations/ transitions when all wants fluidity and no lags? I don.t like IOS at all, but man..thats smooth. Don.t get me wrong, i enjoy flashing for about 8-9 years and i am more than thankfull for all the work but 0.5 speeds will not fool me with "fast, stable and smooth" . From Lollipop to present i experienced more and more smoothnes. Let.s w8 and see what P brings :)

English not native and i.m in hurry :)

Alex.
[Nexus 6  General] Cristian86:
Maybe it's also a question of personal taste... There might be people out there who like app windows opening/closing like there would jump out the screen, and there might be people who like same windows take a nice and slow farewell (ok, both descriptions are overstated). In this matter of fastnes of an OS we won't get an absolut answer I think; there comes a point, where things like network speed are relevant and that is the point, where the fastes OS (how ever mesured) gets to its limit.

As for me and my question: I did not expect to find the reason in the developer settings beeing able to change it :)
[Nexus 6  General] def1003:
is it normal for oreo roms to mostly only utilize one core?
[Nexus 6  General] adm1jtg:

Edit. Are u sure you are not just seeing the build for cheeseburger that was mistakenly added to the shamu section?
[Nexus 6  General] ktmom:
Really? This link will help.

You're not being spoon fed an answer because the right answer as to which ROM to try, is for you to install a ROM then see if it works.

For theme who might not know, the quickest way to get notified of an update to Beltz or ABC ROM for shamu is to follow the Android Builders Collective thread. New releases are always posted there with release information.

You will find it on the launcher settings by pressing and holding on an empty space of the homescreen. There you will find the option Screen Orientation. Just flip it

Is it 7.1.2 or 8.1?

Which gapps?

8.1 and whichever GAPPS you chose
[Nexus 6  General] stivakos:
Thanks, I'll try it tomorrow.
[Nexus 6  General] wavedashdoc:
He's currently working in CleanAOSP. But Beltz is built off of his stable base. Which, imo, is the most stable of the Oreo roms. Newest release was today which includes February security patch.
[Nexus 6  General] :
I have been a nitrogen purist for a month and nephilim is nice too, my #2, but I like the color manager inbuilt with nitrogen so nitrogen won for me. BUT...this screw'd shamu oreo 8.1 beta build is soooooo amazing. It is in the telegram link. Super smooth, no bugs, tons of customizations. I recommend everyone to try it. Screw'd have not gone anywhere
[Nexus 6  General] Guapo613:
We are truly spoiled. So many ROMS to chose from, "Lite" - "Full of Features". Thank You to all the Devs ?
[Nexus 6  General] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
If I recall correctly, setting the lock screen to landscape requires a code edit in framework-res.apk. I don't recall a ROM ever offering a toggle to change the orientation. In fact, I'm not sure a toggle is even possible for that option simply because it was never intended as a user-configurable setting. Things may be different today, but in the Wild West days of Android 2.3.x, to change the orientation required flashing a zip that had a copy of framework-res.apk in it modified to the desired orientation.

Today, that Gingerbread-era mod should still work. But I wonder if a Magisk module with a modified framework would work as well. The only other alternative would be Xposed, but given the trivial amount of code editing required to modify the framework, Xposed is not worth the hassle.
[Nexus 6  General] setiawanjimmy:
It's actually very simple now. It can even be done with a Substratum overlay. Just need to set this to true.

[Nexus 6  General] :
Nope
[Nexus 6  General] stivakos:
I think i figured out the battery drain problem I experienced with all the 8.1 build I tried.

Trying latest Nefilim 1.9 with the suggested gapps from Google+ group solved the problem.

The above combination made my shamu deep sleep without any assist from greenify.

In 48 hours I had only one reboot and deep sleep is back.

So I can conclude that the problem comes from gapps package.

Now I try screw'd (what a name!) ROM with the same gapps from Nefilim.

Really nice ROM too.
[Nexus 6  General] ajaynsurana:
But I still some folks in Telegram group reporting of deep sleep issue in Screw'd :(
[Nexus 6  General] stivakos:
Time will tell. In about 18 hours, the problem will come up, if exists.
[Nexus 6  General] :
Don't know what they are talking about. Mine is great. But I don't use any social media but XDA and occasionally g+ to find new builds.fb and Instagram kills deep sleep
[Nexus 6  General] stivakos:
I second that. Neither I use any social media app. Only Hermit with disabled all the notificatons.
[Nexus 6  General] mezerr:
Nephilim 1.9 clean flash, recommended gapps from Google+, no apps installed except betterbatterystats.

beltz_8.1.0-180208-shamu, open_gapps-arm-8.1-nano-20180201-UNOFFICIAL and Magisk-v15.3 it is working great except it feel bit sluggish, I mean interface and animations are not smooth as they were on previous build, it's same on Nova launcher, checked animation scale options, nothing wrong there, same settings on Nexus 5 (Liquid Remix 8.1) working perfect.

[Nexus 6  General] mnsiw:
Thanks Alryder for reply :) I tried AndroidX for few hours and then switched to Nephilim, copied Launcher 3 from Nexus 5 AEX, working perfect for me.
[Nexus 6  General] ironmaskusa:
I actually have the pixel XL and finally got it rooted and bootloader unlocked on Verizon and I will admit it was not worth it. All I have had is problems from the jump. The magisk Xposed didn't really work too great I know it's in beta and trying to install a rom is a pain because you need to be on several different variations of TWRP which was confusing and then there's a slot A and slot B to flash stuff to and if you're not prescise with the order and the TWRP version you are screwed because it will fail.. then there's a class action lawsuit in the works.. anyway... About the Nexus 6 ROMs working with OREO that's great..but like someone else mentioned until Beanstown gets going again and updating to Oreo... I'm sitting right on PN 7.1.2. ?
[Nexus 6  General] stivakos:
Yeah, that's not gonna happen.

Beans sold his shamu.
