When I freeze the app then do a reboot the downloads are still there if I unfreeze after reboot. So at least I have a workaround :)
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] b8842dc0:
BTW, even though I fixed the Pico TTS crashing issue, by wiping /system. I've continued to have another issue with Pico TTS in LOS 15.1. Not sure if this is a shamu issue, or something larger with LOS and/or AOSP. But starting with Oreo, Pico TTS doesn't read out numbers correctly. An example:

Instead of saying (for example) "26 minute and 15 seconds", it will say "Two six minutes and one five seconds". Should I file a bug report for this somewhere?

I've never flashed a new bootloader and radio - can you explain how to do it? Do I just go into TWRP, flash the bootloader, then the radio, and then Lineage (in that order)? And do I need to wipe my phone?

Thanks!
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] adm1jtg:
PERSONALLY, I always use fastboot to push bootloader and radio from a STOCK google image
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dahawthorne:
I wrote this script for myself back in the days when Google was still issuing monthly Shamu updates. You won't need all of it, but it gives you an idea what you need to do. I don't know if the reboot between flashes is required, but it takes only a few seconds and it always worked for me, so you may as well do it.

Otherwise your instructions above are correct. If you're coming from a different ROM then yes, you should do a TWRP advanced wipe of cache, Dalvik, system and data, but not internal data.

1. Download factory image and extract files.

1A. Copy SuperSU to device.

2. adb reboot bootloader

3. fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img

4. fastboot reboot-bootloader

5. fastboot flash radio radio.img

6. fastboot reboot-bootloader

7. fastboot erase system

8. fastboot flash system system.img

9. fastboot erase boot

10. fastboot flash boot boot.img

11. fastboot erase cache

12. fastboot flash cache cache.img

13. fastboot reboot-bootloader

14. fastboot flash recovery twrp.img

15. reflash superSu
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] ExpectedCrayon:
Thanks! I'll give this a shot this weekend.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] qwei:
You can flash both .zip at the same time, just make sure you use the ones for the right image.

I always wipe the cache in TWRP it's only a swipe after and is recomended. You don't have to flash the Image if you just replace the Kernel and radio.

Like always if you not sure what you doing, don't do it!
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dansblackcat:
The bootloader and radio in that post are both pretty old, from around September/October last year. They're just the ones from the stock 7.1.1 official nexus 6 rom. Well as far as I can...

If you came from the latest official ROM there's no need to flash them.

I never flashed them and my phone has them both running on it

Testkernel

I'd like to have some feedback on this testkernel.

I've transplanted the nitrous driver for bluetooth low energy from wear devices.

I see less wakelocks and all my devices are still working.

It would be good if some people who use BT a lot especially with wear devices or smartbands could test this, as I don't want to merge this untested.

18.05.2018_boot.img <== Flash with 'fastboot flash boot 18.05.2018_boot.img'
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] pinkfloyd3:
Can I test on RR build (lineage base)?

And can I flash it with twrp (img)?

Thanks and sorry for my bad English
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Elektroschmock:
Yeah should work on most ROMs.

No you need fasboot
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] ExpectedCrayon:
In that case, you just saved me some extra work. I did come from the last official stock 7.1.1, so I guess that isn't the source of my problems.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] smoothxda:
As many have posted. When updates are applied some of us have to manually patch in TWRP. If I do a fresh install will that issue go away and will I not have to manually patch?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Elektroschmock:
No it's not fixed yet, as it's a bit tricky.

But downloading and flashing is like 2 minutes work.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] smoothxda:
Thanks for the update. Was just debating a fresh install as it's been a while and this would be a benefit. Will wait.

[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] ReedN:
My wife's Nexus 6 recently broke with respect to the OTA completing without error. Since her phone doesn't need to be encrypted, can I remedy the situation by using TWRP to back up 'data', format to remove the encryption, then restore 'data'?

I've heard from multiple people that with data unencrypted they never have issues. Only my personal Nexus 6 needs encryption so I was careful to install 14.1 first then upgrade all updates in order to not have the issue. Not sure what caused it to break on my wife's phone, but I thought since she doesn't need encryption, removing it might be the best course. I wanted to check the prevailing knowledge-base to ensure that the backup/format/restore would be likely to succeed.

[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] SteveYoungs:
I don't have any wear devices but it works great with my Bose QC35 II, a couple of cheap no name headphones, and in my car. No trouble connecting and it appears more stable than Bluetooth in current LOS kernel. (every now and then my headphones will lose the connection briefly on the release kernel... That didn't happen on this test kernel)

Hello, thanks so much for all the hard work on this. I have one question:

Is there any way to enable vibration with Do Not Disturb? This was possible in 14.1, maybe i'm just not seeing the option.

Just checking. I'm interested in installing ElementalX kernel on LineageOS 15.1 to see if I can enable hotplugging to save battery life. The install is quite straightforward but there seems to be a few statements in the forum that I want to confirm.

1. Does the latest version V5.08 of ElementalX work?

2. Does it force encryption? My phone is decrypted now and I want to keep it that way.

Many thanks!

Guys anyone please help... How to cast screen in los 15.1 in shamu, option is there for cast screen but no device shows when trying to connect, any help please.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] SteveYoungs:
ElementalX does not work on LOS 15.1. Which, in my eyes, is madness seeing as though it is just a kernel and the LOS kernel is EX's upstream.

Side note: latest version of EX is 5.21.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Elektroschmock:
The kernel itself works if you compile it yourself. It's his install method afaik.

But I don't care too much, as I don't earn money with EX Kernel Manager. :p
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] paulmerrill:
So are you saying if I install ElementalX manager app from the Store and pay the $4, it will work?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dahawthorne:
Thats a very good question... :)

I finally tracked down the location, which my various root explorers were unable to find:

"As of the new updates of August 31st, 2017, the updates are stored in /data/lineageos_updates"

Obviously you'll need a root-capable app to get to it, but once you have it you can move it to another more easily-accessible folder and direct TWRP to it to complete the update. Or you can try using the folder directly in TWRP - I didn't check if TWRP can see root folders.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] mithic:
Hi, i am in latest build 20180521 and cast works great!!

(also in previous builds was ok!!)Under Settings/Connected devices/Cast (here on right up corner there are three dots...click and you have to enable wireless display...)

Don't forget that your devices have to be connected to the SAME wireless net.

TWRP CAN see root folders & can apply the update directly from .../lineageos_updates folder!!!
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Elektroschmock:
No, that is not what I said.

I said I don't care about ElementalX because I don't earn money with it. If flar wants it to be compatible with LineageOS he has to fix/adapt it.

Compiling exkernel from source and flashing the boot.img should work.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] SteveYoungs:
Long tap on it in the updater, you'll get a pop-up menu with an option to export. It copies the zip to /sdcard/LineageOS updates/

Yes, TWRP can see root directories.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dahawthorne:
Thanks, mithic. The problem is knowing where to look. After I wrote my answer above I checked this thread and I see that this isn't the first time that people have had trouble tracking the OTA down. Me, since I take regular TWRP backups, I don't want to unnecessarily increase my backup size by backing up the OTA as well as the rest of my data, expecially if the OTAs remain in the same folder so that there are multiple obsolete versions being backed up each time. Maybe the update installer is smart enough to delete the OTA after the update (I haven't checked)...?

---------- Post added at 10:47 ---------- Previous post was at 10:45 ----------

Thanks, Steve. Useful info which I'll try with the next OTA. :)

I'm guessing that if it's a copy then I'll still have to find and delete the original downloaded version? No worries - it's good to know what's going on so that I can deal with these things.

And the new version is working absolutely fine - thanks to Elektroschmock for this work.

But since I am the only developer for shamu and my time is limited I can't comment on everything.

Perhaps one of the 'devs' of other shamu ROMs comes up with a fix. But I haven't seen anyone fixing anything for shamu in the last 3 months.

I can't give an ETA because I am not familiar with the audio HAL..I guess I need to read a lot.
