When applying weekly ota updates, is it ok to switch between delta updates provided by the app Lineage Downloader and full ota updates provided by los build-in update mechanism? Or will things get messed up?

Anyone still getting crashes/reboots with 15.1?

Are there other major bugs, glitching etc?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] MartinN6:
No issue, reboot or other bugs at my device ... the most stable ROM I tested the last weeks ...

Hey, sorry for the noob question, but Netflix issue - is it fixable and is it planned to fix in the nearest future?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Elektroschmock:
Should be fixed with the next build on monday.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] nemanja066:
So, we don't need FED Patcher for noforceencrypt from the next build ? Thx. :)
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] moso11:
Assuming you are referring to this commit, hopefully there would be no further need for FED.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dwardo:
Built my own today and installed. Can confirm the netflix fix works :good:

com.android.gallery3d still fails to start though...
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] manish_bhaumik:
My in call volume (regular calls or via WhatsApp) are too loud (have to hold my phone away from my ears) even at the lowest volume.

Is there a way to reduce the in call volume lower than the UI will allow?

Also this has happened twice to me (once on lineage 14.1 and once today on 15.1), when the other party hung up the call, the call disconnect audio/sound/(beep?) played too loud (much more than in call volume loud, and almost like regular speaker while watching videos loud). That did hurt the ear. I am hoping extremely low repro behavior is a bug which can be fixed and not damage someone's ear.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
gallery works just fine on mine, running the 20180412 15.1
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Fred Simm:
Minor thing. Snap cam is showing up in the system, but no shortcut in the app drawer. I clicked on the apk and installed, but still can't open or see it in the app drawer.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Elektroschmock:
It's the camera icon. :D Snap is just an internal naming.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Fred Simm:
I don't have one for some wierd reason.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Fred Simm:

Edit:

I win. Deleted the directory for snap. Reinstalled with an APK file and it's all good.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Fred Simm:
My flashlight and battery saver are not working in the upper drop down menu. Touch them and nothing happens.

Edit: Sorry battery saver doesn't work while charging, duh.

Still can't get flashlight to work.

Edit 2: I restarted and the flashlight started working.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] learlyman:
Thanks very much for that! I've installed it and it's giving me great information.

The charging weirdness continues though. It stopped charging through USB until I turned it off - I let it charge while off, and then turned it on with the USB still connected, and it kept charging and it now also has the LED under the top speaker grille lighting up blue while charging which it didn't before - no idea where that is coming from now.

I charged it to 100% and then let it drain back down to 70%, put it on the wireless charger, and it's now wireless charging with the charge current (according to AccuBattery) fluctuating between 100mA and 800mA.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Sam Nakamura:
What does it say about the remaining battery capacity (at the 'health' tab)? Charging madness usually comes from a pretty worn-out battery, if it's remaining capacity is below 70% you're on the right track, mine was virtually useless when it hit 55% and made al kinds of nonsense when charging and also switched off after 20 minutes of use, with big chunks of charging percentage missing once I was able to restart the device...
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] learlyman:
Still working on letting it go through a few charge cycles. The first charge (via USB) it showed 55%, for the wireless charge session it showed 90%. I think the truth should be somewhere in between, especially since I'm not seeing any wonkiness yet like phone turning off at 50% charge, or with high current draw (tested by watching 720p youtube videos).
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] learlyman:
So something very weird is going on.

If I boot the phone without USB plugged in, it will not charge via either USB or Qi charger. It detects the connection (battery indicator shows lightning bolt) but will not actually charge. The Indicator LED won't turn on, but will turn on red when low on battery.

If I turn the phone off, plug it into USB, let it charge while "off", and turn the phone on while it is still connected, it will charge via both USB and Qi, until I turn it off again. In Lineage, The LED under the top speaker grille will light up blue while charging.

I turned the phone off, unplugged it, and booted into bootloader. There placing it on the Qi charger shows "Battery OK (Charging)", LED not on - as there is no battery charge percentage, I can't determine if it is actually charging.

Booting from Bootloader into TWRP, there is no charging.

I turned the phone off, plugged USB in, booted it, (so charging worked), and then did an advanced reboot into recovery. TWRP shows charging. I unplugged USB and placed the phone on the Qi charger, and charging works here as well.

So, these observations lead me to believe that charging (whether USB or Qi) is only working if the phone is charging before booting it.

Is it possible that some hardware component necessary for charging (a charge controller, one could say) has to be initialized in order to allow charging, and this only happens properly when the phone is booted into "offline charging" mode, and it then stays initialized until the phone is turned off - but when the phone is turned on while "fully" off, Lineage fails to initialize this?

Do I need to reflash or am I jumping to conclusions?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] githyanki:
Check the charging port for lint or something.

Use a toothpick to clean in there.

looks like lineage os is no longer supporting 15.1! so sad!

https://www.lineageoslog.com/15.1/shamu

"The selected device is not currently supported in LineageOS 15.1 .... RIP Oreo"
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Elektroschmock:
I gave you a heads up some weeks ago.

15.1 is still supported, but there won't be automated builds anymore. You can still build it yourself - the guide is pretty straightforward.

Sorry that I can't do more for users still relying on 15.1 builds, but I am running aut of time and discspace.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] ktmom:
[MENTION=3383960]Elektroschmock[/MENTION] you have gone above and beyond for our beloved Shamu. Thank you for all of your efforts these last few years!
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
Yes, I understood. Thanks. And thank you for all your efforts keeping it afloat. Nevertheless, it's always a bit of a shock when something you love goes away, even though you *knew* it was going to :(
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] mrk2815:
i figuredt that over time it would be best to be current as possible with whatever developer would support nexus 6 through whatever rom. at least we do have a lineage 16. those jus move on to lineage 16. til we havea stable lineage 17.1 for our device. our device will be 6 years now and still receiving support is a blessing to us. most developers afte a certain amount of time move on to the next thing or device.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] thetallguy:
Yes we were warned and yes I am OK with it. I have been staying on 15.1 for two reasons. The first is obvious, the Voice over LTE. But actually down here in the South Pacific I have never had the ability to use VoLTE anyway. The three providers here never implemented VoLTE until they started installing 5G recently. I suppose 5G makes it compulsory. The provider of my prepaid SIM recently announced they have improved sound quality. But in the fine print they say it is limited to about 4 models which they currently sell in their shop, conservative buggers. I still can't use it. Rant over.

The other is that Google limited the rate of WiFi access point scanning in Androind 9, making apps like WiFi Analyzer less useful. I like to find out what is nearby before picking a channel on my own AP and keep an eye on changes in the neighbourhood.

Many thanks for keeping our Nexus 6s viable. Mine has outlasted my friend's Nexus 6P which has had all of the battery/charging and bootloop issues known in that model. Mine also has the original battery still going OK. I will upgrade to LineageOS 16.0.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] woodcarver:
Huge thanks for all the hard work! Can anyone tell me if 16 is as smooth as 15.1 now? I had lag and dropped frames in animations/swipes back in December or so.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] ProBird79:
Thanks for building 15.1!! Would you mind posting your 15.1 builds here in the 15.1 thread or start a new thread? Do you plan to give continuous updates?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dwardo:
I can indeed post them here from now on... I guess I can rebuild whenever [MENTION=3383960]Elektroschmock[/MENTION] informs he's pushed something worth it or someone sees there have been security updates to 15.1 that are worth a recompile.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] ProBird79:
I tried a clean flash using Open GApps stock and get a black screen with the back arrow during setup (after the choice of setting up as new or restore from the cloud). I can't proceed further.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] razorloves:
That's a known opengapps issue.

The Chrome apk in arm opengapps has been broken since march 17. (their zip building script is stripping the certificate from the Chrome apk, which results in android rejecting it so it fails to install)

That black screen happens in setupwizard when webview is missing, and webview is provided by the Chrome apk in stock opengapps.

Just use an older opengapps build (before 17 march) and it will work fine.

https://sourceforge.net/projects/opengapps/files/arm/20200311/

UPDATE: It's fixed now so you can use current builds.

Been on the unofficial once since released. Latest update did this: Not sure if just me, but phone call speaker portion not working, can't hear anything or switch to speakerphone. Bluetooth calling works, headphones/mic works but not speaker (in call). All other functions work, can play music and such over built in speaker. Will test more tomorrow when I get home from work. Tried flashing the previous version, but just get stuck in a forever unlock screen (unlock, then goes dark and asks me to unlock again, repeat.)
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dwardo:
Not many merges since last version (see https://review.lineageos.org/q/branch:lineage-15.1+status:merged) and

None specific to shamu

Others (on shamu or other phones) haven't reported your issue (nothing evidently similar on issue tracker)

Sorry I can't help more
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] tong6998:
I'll check it out when I get home in front of my PC with the backup I got. I typed that last night before bed when i realized after a couple of calls that it wasn't working. Tried both stock and Google phone app, same thing.

Might even do a clean install of the August version vs July and see if it's still there.

Or maybe my internal speaker broke, but speakerphone should still work if that's the case.

I'll report back once I figure it out.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] tong6998:
Yep, defenately a hardware issue... which sucks...

Restored from a backup and issue still there.

Only thing i don't understand is why it won't go to speakerphone if that's the case.

playing music goes from headphones to speakers when i unplug, so i know they work....

anyone got any clue where to look next?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] tong6998:
Well, in case anyone runs into the problem (it's not android related), some apps also weren't working, and even texting was speratic, I decided to clear "carrier services", and boom, it all came back!!!! Back and working.

Hi all. Anyone else having GPS issues? I'm new to 15.1. I was on LOS 17 but had to downgrade due to the Verizion VoLTE ditching cdma. I searched the threads and could not find anything recent regarding gps. Going to start poking around. It looks like its been a persistant issues since the last 2 security release 01/21, 12/20.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
No problems here. I use an app called GPS Status, which will give you all sorts of data about your phone's GPS, and a bunch of other hardware bits, compass, accelerometer, brightness, etc. I assume you used the intermediate zip, to change from official to unofficial? And, of course, rebooted the phone a few times :)
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] ax562:
I did a fresh install, wiped everything. I actually flashed personal build of 15.1 and I flashed the one the the OP thread, same results. Thanks for the info. I will check out GPS status. By chance, are you on Verizon @dbrickg ?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
Yes, verizon
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] ax562:
@dbrickg I had to reset and download AGPS through GPS status. I had downloaded the app earlier when you had mentioned but I did not know how long it could take (PS I'm on the 7th floor). I ran it again and it went well over an hour downloading. What happens is the gps module directly communicates with the satelites and does not use LTE/wifi. All fixed now. :p Thanks again!

Hello all,

When installing this rom:

Is WiFi calling will work with GoogleFi network ?

Thanks
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
I'm not positive, but it seems to me I've seen several posts saying that WiFi calling for the Nexus 6 (shamu) will stop working soon, regardless of what ROM you use
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] ProBird79:
Yes, at the end of this month but only for T-Mobile (as far as I'm aware). Since Google Fi uses T-Mobile I assume WiFi calling will no longer be supported.

[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] runekock:

[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] ax562:
I don't use google camera. Just the stock one that comes with lineage. It works in the 03/21 update but after that no go. Dirty flash. Only wiped /system, kept data. I'm wondering if it needs clean install. Not sure. I haven't tried to debug since my daily driver atm, need camera.

Both cameras work just fine for me, and I'm on the latest 15.1, from 05/12
