Elektroschmock, i only do the updates from time to time for the monthly security updates when i see them on my other device which i currently have the essential ph1 as my daily driver and my nexus 6 as my back up device. thinking of eventually replace these two and keeping them as back up in the future. Either with the xiaomi mi max 3 or the 1plus6t. don't know yet. but if i do replace any of my devices from now.i want a device that has a strong rom community like this one, and the device vendor releases source code, kernel and device trees.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Donz7733:
Running smooth :) Waiting for Lineage 16
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
i've been downloading and installing all of the new nightlies, 20181113 20181114 and 20181115, ever since they started coming out nightly :) they all worked quite well! but i probably won't be posting regular "they worked" messages for each one. unless there's a particular problem, i'll just let you all assume that they're going well. cheers!

Is there a better gapps to install not including mindthegapps?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] pinakini:
Sir Elektroschmock

It seems 14th November build fixed the off screen draining problem to a great extent, which flashed yesterday. It is down to 0.7% per hour. The deep sleep % also improved to 82%. The previous report of high drain was from 13th November build.

Thank you very much.:good:
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] mrk2815:
why the decision to go from weekly to now back to nightly. what's the reasoning and what benifits does the nightly builds over hte weekly builds.dont get it.there is no way in the auto updater to change the preference from nnightly to weekly to monthly .can this be added for those who are on limited band width and cant afford to be doing this every night or doing it once a month or once every 2 or so weeks. that would make more sense.any way a feature like this can be added to the auto updater preferences section.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
why not turn off the auto updates? just do a manual update whenever you want?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] AmirHRC:
downloading the new build 17/11/2018 ??
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] rfmodeler:
Running the 11/17 build and Android Auto works for me! Not sure what build caused it to work for me since I haven't tried to use AA for a few weeks, but thought I'd put it out there. Hopefully it starts working for others.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] AmirHRC:
installed today build look amazing so far thanks ???
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] ChristianF2:
There's no Volume increase in the stock kernel?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
i've been installing each of the nightlies every day for the last week, since they started actually being nightly instead of weekly, and each of them has been working wonderfully, but i decided i wouldn't post to the group each time and say "it's working", since that'd get pretty redundant. but i thought i'd check in today and summarize.... and a big fat thanks to electroschmock: hip, hip, hurray!

PS: just noticed there's a "Recent changes" link at the top of the download page (https://download.lineageos.org/shamu) so i can see if it's worth installing the nightlies; looks like there's no changes today
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] AmirHRC:
yayy there is some lineage os 16 work on our shamu
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] teamoushy:
Where did you get this information from?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] AmirHRC:
from lineage os gerrit code review
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] teamoushy:
Thanks, this is great news :laugh:
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] AmirHRC:
yes iam so happy ??
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] SteveYoungs:
You don't use the Updater app? The ChangeLog is available via the 3-dot menu there.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
no, i most definitely do not use the updater app! i like to just download the zip file and install it from twrp. the changelog is available via the website, just as easily, and i don't have the stupid updater app telling me what to do :)

well, actually, it still tells me there's an update available and asks if i'd like to download it; i just say "clear all"!
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] SteveYoungs:
To each, their own. :)
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
agreed. cheers!
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] pr0ndigy:
Is anyone else having issues with creating folders for apps on the home screen?

When i long press an icon on my home screen and then try dragging it on top of another app, the 2nd app will either jump around and move out of the way, or it will get a white ring around it, but no folder is made.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
Hmm, that sounds more like a launcher thing than a lineage os thing. which launcher are you using?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] pr0ndigy:
Whatever launcher comes with Open GAPPS > ARM > 8.1 > Stock
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] ProBird79:
That would be the Pixel Launcher. I have the same setup and don't have any problems creating folders.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] BootloopedMillennials:
Still loving my LOS 15.1 Nexus 6 as a media consumption device. Can't wait for LOS 16.0 on this beast. None of the new phones can replace it imo, kept it instead of my original Pixel as a backup device. Thanks to the LOS team for keeping this device up to date.

That said I had to jump on the Project Fi 400 dollar Pixel 3 deal.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Dhalsim43:
Magisk 17.1 installation is lost after each LineageOS OTA update. Is there a way to avoid that ?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] teamoushy:
I don't think there is anything you can do
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] SteveYoungs:
You're not "clean" flashing the LineageOS updates are you? That's about the only way I can think of where it wouldn't work.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Dhalsim43:
I'm using integrated OTA update functionality
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] pr0ndigy:
I ended up doing a full wipe, and installing the latest Open GAPPS and Lineage daily, and it's back to working like it should.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] magnamentis:
i always recommend to flash all you need each time in the correct order, it takes exactly 5-10 seconds to add 3 or 4 zip files to the queue and safes a lot of trial and error and troubleshooting thereafter.

didn't see many post about kernels here, perhaps it has evaded most users that we have a top kernel available for shamu including for LOS and LOS based roms and PIE.

i just came back from PIE due to frequent reboots and some incompatibilities with my favourite theme, need a working device and this is the only rom that is really developed and maintained from someone who owns the device.

at the current stage (age) of this device with all the aging issues adding to it, simple maintenance is often not enough, needs some dev-skills to keep it on top.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] SteveYoungs:
I can confirm that it should and does work because I've never had the issue that you've described.

When your phone is in TWRP during the update do you notice it at least trying to flash Magisk after the rom? Like, is there an error or does it reboot as soon as the rom is done?

If there's an error, post it here and we'll see what we can do. If it isn't even attempting to reflash Magisk that tells me that there is something wrong with the addon.d script for Magisk... It's either missing, or corrupt, or has bad permissions, or some such problem like that.

/system/addon.d/99-magisk.sh

Should be owned by root (also group root) and have at least 755 (rwxr-xr-x) permissions. It is also just a wrapper that calls the real script at...

/data/adb/magisk/addon.d.sh

(root:root 755) so that needs to exist too. :)

Hope this helps.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] digitalcircuit:
Do you have your data partition encrypted (e.g. upgrading from LineageOS 14.1)?

I have the same issue as the original poster. Until now, I haven't even considered this until you mentioned the real script location; my hunch would be TWRP installing OTA updates without decrypting /data means that the real Magisk addon.d.sh script is not even accessible. No error messages show, it just doesn't run. GApps properly remain across OTA updates.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] SteveYoungs:
Yes.

Did you look on the TWRP output/log screen (right hand navbar button) for that error message? That'll be where you'd find it. On the subject of TWRP, are you running the latest (3.2.3-0)? Perhaps that's all you need to get things right.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] b8842dc0:
I will add to these recent comments that I have also had some bizarre behavior during LOS updates with Magisk (and a few other oddities, as well). In the last few weeks, I've observed the following: 1) LOS updates, 2) TRWP output DOES show that Magisk is doing its update stuff, 3) Phone boots up, but 4) I don't have root, and K-9 mail and Silence (my texting app) are both missing. HOWEVER, in my case, a simple reboot is all that is required. After the reboot, those two missing apps return, and Magisk has root.

So, lately, my upgrade process has been to 1) update, 2) boot up the phone and then promptly reboot. Not sure what the culprit is here. And yes, I'm running the latest TWRP.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Dhalsim43:
Yes, my data is encrypted by stock 7.1.1 so that it can be decrypted by twrp.

If I flash manually the update in twrp, magisk is automatically reflashed but if I click on install update in rom settings, magisk is lost.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] SteveYoungs:
My update process is literally 3 taps... Tap "Download", tap "Install", tap "OK". I'm rooted with Magisk and use a custom kernel, everything is installed in the right order.

I'd like to emphasise that I don't see anything wrong with how you do your updates. My laziness fuels my desire for automation. :)
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
does that include a backup? one of the main reasons i go into twrp, and the thing that takes the most time, is to make a backup. it's kind of a pain, but it's saved my bacon more than once :)

ps: the other, and main, reason is that old habits die hard, and, as i get older, i find it's easier to ignore the world than to change my mind
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] SteveYoungs:
No, but I have no need for backups. At least not "traditional" backups like what I think you are alluding to. And no, I'm not trying to be funny or edgy, the way I've structured things means I do not need backups. The ROM and all apps and themes on the phone can easily be re-downloaded from where ever I got them from in the first place. Most, if not all, of the user data that I give a fsck about is automatically backed up to the cloud, either to my Google Drive or my Nextcloud, or both (I think some goes to my Dropbox as well). The exception would be my music. I never stream music so it is all on my device. There's no need to back any of that up simply because it isn't the only copy. Getting it back is just a 'adb push' away. :)

I think I've only ever lost 100% of my bacon once. It was early 1980s and completely my own stupid fault, all I'll say is that it is surprising how much trouble you can get into messing with assembler when you don't know what you are doing. :P Since then, yeah, I've lost little bits of bacon here and there but nothing even worth remembering or losing sleep over.

If it is important to me I'll take steps to preserve or safeguard it. The steps I take depend on 3 main things... The level of importance; What safeguards are already in place by default; How much of a PITA it'd be to implement.

LOL! I have a tough enough time just trying to ignore the stupid, let alone the whole world. :)
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] damir_nis:
Can anyone tell me why is there so many updates at this moment? Thank you devs amazing rom.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
Hah! Thanks. I got several good laughs out of that! I especially liked the comment about messing with assembler :)

Hope all your bacon remains happy and unmolested. Cheers!

Read back a couple pages: Elektroschmock announced recently that the nightlies were going to be released nightly from now on

oh, or did you mean updates to individual apps? if so, i don't know. hadn't really noticed. maybe because there are so many new phones, so developers are scrambling to make their apps work with all of them?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] BootloopedMillennials:
Is anyone else have these issues on the last two builds?

1. Sometimes the screen doesn't turn on. Pressing the power button and double tapping on the screen does nothing.

2. Trebuchet launcher doesn't respond to long presses on the homescreen. Meaning it doesn't bring up the menu to change wallpaper, widgets and it's settings. Not a big deal just weird.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
None of that here. Power button always turns on the screen. I don't use any double-tap to wake or any of that. And long presses on the home screen works as expected, but I'm using nova launcher, not trebuchet. I don't know if that makes any difference
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Elektroschmock:
We switched to daily builds for 15.1 mainly to test our new infrastructure:

Also see: https://lineageos.org/Changelog-21/

But as 15.1 doesn't see many changes there is no need to update every day.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] BootloopedMillennials:
I did a fresh install. The screen issue appears to be caused by lift phone to wakeup for notifications. The long press of homescreen appears to happen most often when changing wallpaper.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
Ah, yes: lift phone to wake has always seemed problematic to me: sometimes it wakes when I don't want it to, and sometimes it doesn't wake when I do want it to. So I've turned off all the fancy auto wake stuff. The only way to wake my phone is to click the start button.

And for changing wallpaper, I used to love that, but then I noticed it was using a lot of resources, and was kind of flakey, and some wallpapers ended up camouflaging the icons so I couldn't see them. Now I just use a plain black wallpaper, which works quite well, uses less energy, doesn't light up the whole room when I go to check my phone in the dark, and I think it looks really classy.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] BootloopedMillennials:
It's a good thing we have the notification light with multiple colors on the Nexus 6. I don't need the fancy auto wake stuff on it. It's nice to have on my Pixels though.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] duhec:
Hmm I gotta try that. :rolleyes: Been changing wallpapers since ever and was never really satisfied because of the same reason.

Yep, notification light is a must.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Muggins:
With the Nov29 build, and possibly earlier, the home key once again returns to the home desktop ?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] BootloopedMillennials:
Looks like it was fixed on the 11/27 build. There were no changes on the 11/28-11/29 build
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
still no changes on the 11/30 or 12/1 builds

hmmm, but right now, the 11/28 build's "Recent changes" shows pages and pages of stuff. i suspect it's an error on the changes page, since the first 4 or 5 changes in the 11/28 build are the same ones that were showing for the 11/27 build
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] BootloopedMillennials:
Wishful thinking but I hope it means we are close to official 16.0. I know in reality the encryption issue still needs to be fixed and it isnt simple.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
yar ... i'm sure you're right. but, just in case, i'm downloading the 11/28 and will try installing it :)

i just looked at one of the shamu changes in the 11/28 about 10 pages down and it had a september date. so i'm even more sure it's just wishful thinking. but i've downloaded and installed it and am rebooting right now ....

well, the 11/28 build booted up just fine. i'm not seeing any significant changes. guessing there's just a problem in the changes log
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] SteveYoungs:
Yeah, that's my take on it as well... Glitchy ChangeLog site :) I'm doing the same as you, except with 20181202
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
Aha! Excellent idea! If they're listing changes in the 11/28 build that DON'T exist, maybe they're NOT listing changes in the 12/2 build that DO exist :)
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] BootloopedMillennials:
The file size is different build to build. So glitchy changelog does seem to be the issue. Anyway I'm going to update every day, it's not too long or complicated of a process.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] BootloopedMillennials:
Anyone install the 12/3 build? I did and it's experiencing some weirdness. When trying to change a setting in an app or even in the settings app, the screen goes black until I click. Then it's right back to the settings menu but I couldn't see to change the setting.

Edit- I rebooted and the issue is gone. Weird
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] AmirHRC:
who expect to see lineage os 16 this week wehn December security patch been released

sorry if my English is bad
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] veesix:
I guess it really depends on the encryption issue, whether we'll get LOS 16 at all. Right now encryption is broken on all Pie ROMs for Shamu, if I'm not mistaken.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] BootloopedMillennials:
That is the big hurdle. Also believe VoLTE is broken on all Pie roms.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Dhalsim43:
I've tested Nitrogen Pie rom for a month and encryption/decryption was working
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] veesix:
Really? Didn't know that.

Well, it's good news, let's wait and see.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] teamoushy:
This is new information that i could not find anywhere else, so you are encrypted at the moment?
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] valy_cta:
Hello all!

As the title suggests, I found out that the networks operating on these channels are not seen by my Le Max2.

Up to now I had no any problem regarding this, and I was also not aware that I cannot see a wifi network with this phone. It all came to light about a week ago at my workplace where we have multiple Cisco routers installed on various places. Moving around, I noticed that some networks show up, some don't. It's frustrating to see that you have no network where you'll spend your next hours.

I changed the modems, hoping that it will solve the problem, and it kind of did for some time. I was using 26s modem for a long time and all was fine. Then suddenly the networks started to disappear and I was forced to try various versions. With 016s US it worked for about 2 days, then again stopped detecting the networks. After that I've changed multiple modems from 023s to RU, to developer, to US again, etc... Nothing worked. I then used the modules in Magisk and Xposed to extend the wifi channels, they also didn't work...

Currently running AICP 8.1 on my X820, but switching between the ROMs mostly, as I'm not settled on a specific one. I guess that now I'm having 028s modem installed. There is no option to change the settings of the routers as they are locked down.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance!
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] Burgeruking:
I had exactly the same problem - several wifi routers cant be seen by my phone, sometimes they appeared in wifi list (strange, but only when Sim card was inserted, didnt test if it was channel numbers related), but all those problems disappeared and now my x829 can see my router everytime even without sim inserted. It got fixed for me after flashing India 19s stock rom - try it out if you haven't already - https://xdaforums.com/le-max-2/how-to/le-max-2-official-stock-firmware-links-t3433761
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] valy_cta:
Thanks a lot. I cannot download the full ROM, but I will try just the modem. The Internet connection is quite bad for downloading a file that large.

Will post the results after flashing the modem.
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] valy_cta:
Hello again.

After installing the Indian 019s modem, still I couldn't see the networks. Reinstalled aicp, but this time after installation, the airplane mode was Off and the phone received GSM signal. Now looks like I can see the wifi networks on channels 12 and 13.

I understand the relationship between the sim card and the WiFi channels, but isn't there something that can be done to set it manually, and something that will work?
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] Burgeruking:
Like I told - only switching to Full India 19s stock rom, not modem only helped me and btw fixed 4g network drops problem.
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] valy_cta:
Thanks for the answer. Going back to the past is not the option unfortunately. All this "Wi-Fi channel" problem is ROM related, you are right, and it depends if the developers added a region or not in their ROMs.

I searched a lot in the last days and looks like the culprit is wifi-service.odex that is located in system/framework/oat/arm64. This file takes information from the SIM card once it receives GSM signal and it determines the region where you are located. In this way, it restricts the wifi channels. Unfortunately if you don't have GSM signal (like me), then it limits the working channels to 1-11, not showing 12 and 13. As soon as the GSM signal appears, and the phone recognizes the region as being an unrestrictive one, then it releases the channels 12 and 13.

The thing is that once this file gets modified, the restrictions are gone. Most of the users reported that setting the zone to US is the best as it is one of the less restrictive. I hope that the devs will consider this in their future releases.

Now, what can I do?! I can flood all the development threads with this request, or try to modify the file myself. As I'm not that good in decompiling apps, I will still try it, not even considering the option no 1.

Maybe somebody with a bit more experience can give me a hand and change the wifi-service.odex
