When you're in the TWRP, pick install and then navigate up a level -> data -> lineageos_updates (or something of sorts), flash the zip that's inside. Works for me this way.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] deniz3801:
Hi,

Thema lineage os Rom is very good.

But I can't change the Navigation Bar Style with Substratum. What can I do to resolve the problem?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] emraz786:
Resolved with a reboot

Does the 3.2.1-2 TWRP address the decryption issues? I see that the latest TWRP for Shamu is 3.2.1-0.

Maybe, but ElementalX let you to change vibration strenght. I hate Nexus 6 loud vibration and Im too lazy to turn off it on every app nottification. I tried to reduce it with EX kernel manager app, but everything revert back. Thats the only thing why I want to use EX kernel, but as I know its not working with this rom.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Sanabil:
Ex kernel is not working with Lineage OS, i wish i could flash ex kernel, but it stays on boot or bootloops. :laugh:

Have you tried with the latest Kernel Adiutor ?

Disable vibration.

Hi, thanks to all for this awesome rom.

I have the latest rom, 08/05 (clean installed) and my question is about vibration.

I have disable everything about vibration on settings,sounds,gestures, etc.

BUT on:

Outlook email app, when long press to delete an email, the phone vibes! (how disable this?the app, doesn't have an option to disable this.)

to the other side on Gmail, long press on email to delete, the phone doesn't vibes!

Same thing when i don't answer to incaming call and the phone stops ringing...i receive vibration for missed call!!!How can i also disable this?

Sorry for my english...

Thanks in advanced.

I/O Scheduler

Dear [MENTION=8568276]Electroshmock[/MENTION],

First, it goes without saying that you are doing an amazing job with the Nexus 6... thank you so much for that :good:.

I appreciate the changes that were made in the kernel from LOS 14.1 to 15.1 concerning I/O settings:

- Read-ahead reduced to 128 kB,

- RQ Affinity reduced to 0.

I think we could also benefit from 2 additional modifications:

1) disabling "Add random" (draw entropy from spinning storage) as NAND doesn't seem to be a good source to draw entropy from ;

2) using "noop" instead of "bfq" as a scheduler, as you can see in my benchmarks attached, it clearly shows an improvement in the "Random read" score. In order of appearance :

- bfq,

- noop,

- noop & Read-ahead 512 kB,

- noop & RQ Affinity 1,

- noop & RQ Affinity 2,

- Kernel Adiutor I/O page.

What do you think about this?

Have a great day :cool:

OTA update worked fine again (no manuell install needed). DRM still is at L3.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Stroky:
Thanks for your Information.

Yeah that would be great!
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Event_Horizon:
Hi,

Anyone can confirm, Screen Cast is not working on my nexus with LOS 15.1, is it universal or I'm going wrong way...

Have a nice day..
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] ExpectedCrayon:
If I understand correctly, DRM is now permanently at L3. They took out the library for L1 because L1 no longer works if you have an unlocked bootloader, and it's against Lineage's rules to hide the bootloader status. Removing the library drops the phone down to L3, but apps then won't check the bootloader status. I'm assuming once there are more custom kernels for Oreo there will be ways to get around this.

---------- Post added at 06:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:42 PM ----------

This may have been asked before, so sorry if this is a repeat, but is there any plan to bring back the circle battery icon in the notification bar? I loved that on 14.1. Thanks!
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] mugendon:
Uh, that is strange. I am running Stock 7.1.1 with unlocked bootloader and magisk root on my main N6 and have L1 working just fine (at least those DRM apps say it's L1, but maybe I am missing something).
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] ExpectedCrayon:
Yeah, even in the earlier 15.1 (Oreo) builds the DRM apps would display L1, but apps like Netflix wouldn't work. I think the bootloader check being part of L1 was introduced in Oreo, but I'm not 100% sure of that. Netflix worked fine for me on 14.1, and only started giving me L1 difficulties after the Oreo update.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
I liked that circle, too! It gives a much better visual representation of the battery charge. You can tell at a glance if the battery is at 75% or 50% for instance. Whereas with the little battery icon, you can see if it's really low or really high, but there's not much difference between 75% and 50%

Verizon Visual Voicemail with Google Phone App

Any Verizon users able to get VVM to activate within the Google Phone app? It never activates for me, but it seemed like it would go through after agreeing to Verizon's terms.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] ReedN:
OTA Errors

I found through much experimentation that if I skip any of the OTA versions, then I start getting the issue which prevents the OTA update from completing automatically. However, if I go back to the beginning and install each, one after the other, then it allows OTA on each and every version.

Anyone know the mechanism at work here?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] mugendon:
Indeed I didn't skip any OTA and started from the first 15.1 release.

On the other hand I think I have no problems because I didn't encrypt. But I don't really know.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
Hmm, yeah, mine works. I remember it was a pain to get it set up. But it was a long time ago, so I don't remember what I finally did that made it work. It seems like I had to go to my account on their website and do something, and then maybe I had to wait for a week ... I really don't remember what it was. Also, I'm not sure what you mean by "within the Google Phone app". I think my phone just shows an icon in the notification area saying I've got a voice mail, and when I click on that it shows me the voice message, transcribed into, sometimes amusing, text
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] nilesh0205:
Keeping the GPS?location services on resolved the issue. Not sure what is the relation between GPS and jio4gvoice getting calls. :silly:

Downside is , Battery now drains faster than before :p
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] ReedN:
To get my work e-mail it forces encryption. So I went back to the last 14.1 version (encryption TWRP could work with). I found that I had to do each update one after the other because if I skipped any it would cause the OTA update error.

Torch and flash for photoes stop working with this build.

I had the same issue with previous builds but everything appears to be solved with last monday (01/05) build.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] WhammyDroid:
I was able to get it working. That said, i had to have the visual voice mail feature added to my account. I am not able to get the phone.apk to handle voicemail (which is my preference). I do not know if it is compatible with Verizon at this point.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
They both work just fine for me

It is a possibile hw problem....
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] wrsg:
Anyone still getting crashes or glitches with recent versions?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] smoothxda:
The only issue I am seeing is no searches in the settings work.

nevermind, found the solution:

If found the solution:

Go to settings/app/settings, clear cache and data. That works for me!
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] nemanja066:
Sometimes the phone has to be restarted several times (or even clear cache in twrp), to operate the camera. Flash tile is also inactive (as long as the tile is inactive, camera does not work) . :)
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dansblackcat:
Yep. As soon as my phones battery hits 40% is instantly turns off. It boots back up and works fine but will instantly turn off again from time to time.

Does this until it get to about 20-30% then it turns off and the icon shows as being completely flat.

---------- Post added at 01:32 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:26 AM ----------

Am I missing a setting or something for the lock screen?

I pick up my phone and the screen lights up like it's always done, but swiping doesn't unlock the screen, it does nothing. I either have to double tap the screen or press the power button to take me to the screen where I need to swipe up to unlock.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Lothsahn:
Honestly, that sounds like a bad battery dans. Mine was doing that and I replaced the battery and it works great now. Weak batteries on the Nexus 6 cause all sorts of problems -- random shutoffs, noise on the speakers, touchscreen glitching, etc. New battery fixed all of that for me.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dansblackcat:
Thanks for the reply. I've seen a few other mentions of it possibly being battery related. I just thought it was odd that it never did it when I was on the stock ROM but the phone is at the age where the battery is getting pretty old.

Cheap enough to change so I'm going to replace it anyway I think.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] wrsg:
Thanks for letting me know

Thanks for letting me know. I'm not trying to be difficult to the devs, just trying to understand if I'm going to have a worse time than 14.1 which is currently working fine for me.

Testkernel

I tried to fix the excessive bluesleep wakelocks when bt is turned on and something is connected.

Works fine for me, but I only have limited access to bt devices and can't test all testcases.

So if anyone want's to test it here you go:

11.05.2018_boot.img

Flash with fastboot. If you don't know how to do it ...this is not meant for you. :)

(Kernel also includes may fixes and other stuff I'm working on)
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] xNotta:
Is anyone else having an issue where the screen won't turn on after sleeping for a while?

I tried to get a log but adb won't detect the phone while it's in this perma-sleep state. Going to try that new kernel.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] SteveYoungs:
OK, so now that Google are adding 6 more voices to Google Assistant there's a question I've been meaning to ask for a while... Has anyone even seen the female / male voice in GA settings? I haven't and I'm wondering if it is a US-only thing? (I'm in Australia)
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] ocbones:

i do not want to do a freash install of 15.1 to fix this issue.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
I dirty flashed from 14.1 to 15.1, and my call history is just fine. Not sure what you'd have to do to make it work. I'm on Verizon, if that makes any difference.

You need root or use TRWP to remove those files. Just delete them and your history will start working.

I renamed mine calllog.db.old and calllog.db-journal.old and it worked
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] ocbones:
Awesome that did the trick!
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] SteveYoungs:
The results for me weren't good. Bluetooth would periodically turn off (no devices connected). It doesn't turn off immediately but lasts maybe an hour or more. Connecting my Bose QC35 II headphones was very hit or miss. It would connect and then disconnect a couple of seconds later. The one time it did stay connected I couldn't get google assistant (the head phones have a dedicated GA button) to activate... So no input. When I tried playing music there was no audio (no output) and the phone froze until I disconnected the headphones.

Sorry for being the bearer of bad news.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Sanabil:
I am on stock open gaps with pixel launcher as default. And i see the options of all new voice's , i am using voice no 8.

Swipe for Google feed pan>setting>preference>assistant voice.

And hopefully you'll see all voice's.

You need everything updated.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Fred Simm:
Minor issue. I loaded my mp3's to my music folder. Sometimes the music stutters at the beginning of songs. Stock player and the xda version of phonograph player both stutter. Anyone experience this or got any advice?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Elektroschmock:
No. I'm only the divice maintainer. I don't do features.

Thanks! After working for two days without problems my bt suddenly turned off. Looks like I need to investigate further.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] SteveYoungs:
Nope. I only have "Weather" and "Getting around" in that menu and I'm pretty sure I have everything as up to date as can be (I use the beta google app, currently 8.2.10.21).

May I ask what country you are in?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Sanabil:
That's weird because i am in Pakistan and Pakistan is not officially supported for many assistant features, like when i say 'ok Google play music' it says 'sorry Google play music is not supported in your Country'
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Lothsahn:
Elektroschmock,

If a lack of hardware is really the problem, buy any bluetooth headset for <$25 and I'll reimburse you. Just PM me the cost.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] SteveYoungs:
What's more weird is that Australia is normally one of the first countries outside of the US to get new features.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Lothsahn:
Yes, this absolutely works on stock on all firmware releases.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Sanabil:
May be this irregularity is due to the fact that our phone is running custom rom? May be officially supported devices will let is know better. But our apps do get updated so maybe its at Google's end? Who knows..
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] stefan_city:
Running latest nightly with open gapps stock, without root. My device at play store is uncertified.

[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Elektroschmock:
Thanks for the offer, but what I meant is, that I only have a limited selection of bluetooth devices.

Some devices act really weird. But it looks like that my changes don't work properly. While they fix the wakelock bt suddenly turns off in some cases.

[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Lothsahn:

[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] ocbones:
Just noticed did 15.1 get rid of single handed mode? It seems to be gone, and I can't seem to find any options for it.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] burakthepascal:
is this rom works with projectfi?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Lagarde:
It does, but it's not perfect. None of the non-stock roms seem to be. You'll get a few more issues with low signal/service (not bad, just lower), the wifi calling doesn't always work (it does sometimes, so I'm 100% certain someone will tell me I'm wrong because during a full moon on a Tuesday it worked for them once), etc. Overall good though. I use it as my daily driver even on Fi.

I'm having a lot of problems with pico tts crashing on LOS 15.1. Anybody else, not using gapps, also having these problems?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] ExpectedCrayon:
Not sure if someone already replied to you, but I posted a solution here.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] MiroALG:
the recommended gapps package for this rom is mindthegapps not opengapps
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Sanabil:
I have installed stock open gaps and no problems.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] b8842dc0:
Thanks for the reply. I didn't word my question very clearly, I suppose. What I intended to say is that I'm not using any gapps package. Just the plain Pico TTS that comes with the ROM.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] SteveYoungs:
The only reason MindTheGapps was recommended was that at the time OpenGapps did not have a 8.1 version available. It does now and it works fine.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] gettes:
Well, I'm having a much better experience. No problems with Fi. I use Wi-Fi calling all the time. Works great. All this and I no longer have to deal with the carriers. Priceless!

I'm on a 2.5 year old n6 running LOS 15.1, rooted with magisk. Love it! Still feels like a new phone.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] b8842dc0:
Thought I would add that tonight, I tried wiping system before installing the latest update and Pico TTS started working again. I'm not sure whether Lineage automatically wipes system during updates, or not. Apparently not. Anyway, Pico TTS is thankfully working again.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] skookum1:
I'm also having issues with wifi calling. When enabled, incoming calls dont ring at all. If a voicemail is left, it is the full duration but all static noise. I havent tried calling out, just leaving it disabled for now. Other than wifi calling Ive had no issues
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] ahmedkordofani:
Random restarts with drastic battery change whilst doing heavy tasks such as watching a YouTube video, using Google Maps with GPS open, playing a game or simply browsing sites on Chrome etc. Happens between 30% - 40% from what I've experienced and a lot of the time one random restart would be followed by a second one in a matter of seconds then when I come to open the phone again a third one occurs and suddenly I need to charge the phone again. Kernel related possibly? I don't think it's hardware related (battery) because it's an on and off thing.

This has been happening with every build of LOS 15.1 even LOS 14.1(less frequent there). Am I the only one who experiences these random restarts? Been living with it for months lol thought it's about time I get some insight.

Hope I'm not the only one, thank you.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
installed the 15.1-20180515-nightly and it's looking good so far
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Elektroschmock:
What do you mean with 'it's a on off thing'? Please explain.

If it was only on 15.1 I'd say it's the relaxed BCL tuning I did. But if you also had it on 14.1 something on your hardware is dead.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] mrnazarod:
LineageOS 15.1 is getting better, but the lack of support for Widevine L1 is still a big disadvantage compared to other ROMs (DU, Nitrogen, Beltz, AOSiP). A giant screen phone like shamu with no HD video streaming support in Vudu, Netflix etc is not as much fun as it can be.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Elektroschmock:
Is L1 really working on other ROMs? Uptill now the best thing I heard is that its reporting L1 which means nothing.

As Lineage's policy doesn't allow to fake bootloader status there is nothing I could do to allow L1 with unlocked bootloader.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Sanabil:
Ok i think there is a problem with camera app , i did noticed it previously but its very easy fixable so it's no biggie.

Camera app doesn't open and only if i restart phone it works.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] ahmedkordofani:
Thanks for the reply. What I meant is that it doesn't always happen, but when it does it's quite sudden. But it seems like the latest build that came out today is free of any problems, so far so good except for a random shutdown from 20% .Going to calibrate the battery and see how everything goes. Can't really know if I have a hardware issue unless I revert to stock which I plan on doing.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] emraz786:
That happens to me, yesterday it happened to me with 25%, other times with less than 20%. I think it's the battery problem.

Enviado desde mi Nexus 6 mediante Tapatalk
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] ahmedkordofani:
Turns out the random restarts weren't hardware related at all, managed to fix the problem by flashing the bootloader and radio images for the latest stock firmware.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] mrnazarod:
Yes it does. While Vudu only allows SD streaming on Lineage, I have HDX enabled on other ROMs; YouTube shows quality options up to 480p on Lineage, while 720p and 1080p are available on other ROMs. I have personally verified it with DU, Beltz and AOSiP.

I believe the fix for this involved merging some 6P code or blobs.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] deathpod:
I'm running the 5-8 nightly and have no problems with 720@60 and 1080@60 in the YouTube app.
