[Nexus 6 Android Development] The Doctor04:
I have tried a number of the Oreo ROMs but I am not too much of a crack flasher any more. I found one that I really enjoyed, had all the features I needed and battery life was fantastic. I decided yesterday to try AOSIP since [MENTION=4450173]camcory[/MENTION] is still making some fantastic changes under the hood and I wanted to start seeing his work on a more grand scale....wow! All the Devs are great, the work from all has been phenomenal. But this version of AOSiP is just different for some reason. I'm not getting any jank I saw from some others, battery life for some reason is just a hair better and some of these features were features I didn't know I would enjoy.

My Nexus 6 seems to be running cooler, and happier. Just brilliant work. Thank you [MENTION=4450173]camcory[/MENTION] your dedication to keep the Shamu going is very commendable
[Nexus 6 Android Development] matchesmalonr:
Thank you so much for the rom. Made my shamu live longer. But are we gonna get an always on display feature soon?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] uicnren:
Just wanted to say the auto update worked flawlessly this time.

Went from the 2nd test build to the 20180629 build.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] swear0730:
Updated to the 6/29 build this morning. All is running smooth but the "Phone Information" selecting from the test menu via *#*#4636#*#* stopped working.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] uicnren:
confirmed here too.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Stevica Smederevac:
I would bet that [MENTION=4450173]camcory[/MENTION] didn't push that commit to the official Aosip Gerrit, just my two cents;)

---------- Post added at 04:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:32 PM ----------

Didn't see that commit on official Aosip Gerrit. Probably on official July build.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] uicnren:
where exactly is this located? Owl's nest settings?

I have seen it before, but for the life of me cannot find it now. Nowhere seems to show home screen settings for me.

OK, I found it on AOSiP on my Nexus 5, but on my Nexus 6, it is not available, or I just can't find it.

(long press home screen, select settings)

Get different behavior on N5 v. N6
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Stevica Smederevac:
Yes, long press home screen and then settings.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] uicnren:
Thank you.

For some reason on my N6, I get the normal stock home settings there, not the settings the ROM should provide.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Stevica Smederevac:
This is what you get with the rom. Something has messed up for you or you flashed some gapps that replaced stock launcher ( 99,9%).
[Nexus 6 Android Development] gothy.gothy:
As per my understanding camcory is using stock gapps, what are you using?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Stevica Smederevac:
Since Beans gapps died, i started using Open gapps nano package.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] uicnren:
Im using stock open gapps 20180626

home app is pixel launcher 8.1.0-4429924

These appear to be identical to what I m using on Nexus 5, yet I get different results.

EDIT:

OK, I see the difference now, I used the pico package on the Nexus 5, looks like your statement about the launcher being replaced is correct.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Stevica Smederevac:
Exactly. They just look the same but they aren't;)
[Nexus 6 Android Development] adm1jtg:
Sorry to say update failed to work for me. I believe it's not a rom issues but an encryption one with me. Both applying the update automatically and also seeing to flash the update manually result in my being such in twrp.... See attached. It never gets part this screen.

Edit: won't let attach screen shot bit I see the aosip screen in twrp and it hangs right there
[Nexus 6 Android Development] mahir555:
indeed this rom in the voip apps still got very annoying echo when using speaker phone.. i tried duo, whatsapp & hangout

all shamu oreo roms got it till now.. really hope it can be fixed.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Wi1son:
Really awesome ROM!! Is it just my setup, out is long press torch a little wonky?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] zapjb:
[SOLVED for me at least, maybe you too]

The Problem:

Today I updated the AOSiP 8.1 update dated 06.29.2018 through the AOSiP updater.

After success? in TWRP & selecting reboot. My N6 freezes at the b&w Google screen.

I hold the power button till phone reboots. It then loads all the way to the lockscreen. Though it shows a different lockscreen clock. Upon entering my pattern lock I can use the phone.

AOSiP Updater shows the 06.29.2018 update is installed. Tried several reboot cycles & complete power offs. So far same results - freezing at the b&w Google screen.

Solution:

Funny after many reboot cycles & complete power offs. A few times turning it off 10 mins.

Everything now works: reboots, from complete off to on & on to off. I reselected Deadpool lockscreen clock so that's the same again. Went to Google Google Play Store & was offered a Google Carriers Services update, updated & aok.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Stevica Smederevac:
It is, not just for you.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] c4p3fi3rr:
Hi, i'm having trouble using VPN based ad blockers, like DNS66 and Blokada. VPN service fails to start. Can someone reproduce the issue?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] gothy.gothy:
In 6/29 release the long press for torch finally works without issue. It's not wonky anymore.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] adm1jtg:
Yeah tried that same results, this why i said maybe an encryption issue
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Stevica Smederevac:
I'm encrypted and never had an issue but my way of flashing is to wipe everything except internal. Rom, gapps,root and that's it.

Edit. Not wiping data also, sorry. Forgot about that.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] zapjb:
Are you guys getting stuck at the black & white Google screen that shows that the bootloader is unlocked?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Stevica Smederevac:
Sometimes but holding power button and forcing it to reboot does the trick. Only once i had to do it 2 times in order to boot.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] zapjb:
Exactly what happened to me. Maybe I explained it better in post #218.

But it is SOLVED now. I'll explain a bit further.

I did what you did to boot holding down the power button & forcing it to reboot.

Then I did the following about twenty times:

The N6 now at the "WORKING" home screen.

I rebooted. FAILED.

Then I'd completely shutdown & then power up. FAILED.

Hold down the power button & force it to reboot after each failed attempt.

Back & forth 3 or 4 goes at a time.

Then I'd completely shutdown & wait 10 mins after a few attempts.

Alternating between startups & reboots.

Then after twenty attempts or so it just WORKS.

No getting stuck at the Google black & white screen.

And I'm updated.

This is not dumb luck. This is how computers work sometimes. Just sometimes. I have 20+ years fixing Windows 95% & Linux 5%.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Stevica Smederevac:
I'm turning off my phone every night. Compared to the times it happened, it's negligent. Maybe 2,3 times out of 100 boots so it doesn't bother me that much. As long as it boots, I'm happy:).

I think it has something to do with bootloader (old and not Oreo friendly) but as you said, could be anything.

Also my battery is bad so i thought maybe that could also be a reason.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] zapjb:
Excluding your battery situation. There is healing power in doing what I did in one sitting. I don't mean psychically either.

I know many times more about Windows & Linux than Androids flavor of Linux. I do favor frequent imaging & backups on all 3. But if I want something to work (like an update) which works for most everybody & not just restore to a previous working state. I sometimes do what I outlined & sometimes it works.

Why does it sometimes work? There's hope in getting an update to work & get your device to reboot-power up-shutdown normally. As long as it does this even by a workaround. In this case holding the power button till the N6 reboots. The rigamaroll I outlined can work by (unscientific terms to follow) getting it to heal itself by completing forced startups & reboots. The 10 min waits lets the hardware cool down & any power stored dissipate & helps get the "pc" to turn on & shut down properly.

I'll add the sometimes this works. It's then best to again follow the rigamaroll of rebooting-shutting down & starting up 5-6 times. Even though it is now fixed. That "bakes" in the fix. This is all ghost in the machine stuff but again sometimes this works!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] adm1jtg:
I get the hang on Google bit as well on occasion. My bootloader is current and my battery as of accubattery lists at about 88% of original charge. Also happens with current modem and older modems, so not at all sure the cause, of also not rom specific as has happened to me on other roms as well
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Stevica Smederevac:
For my fellow Corey's users , new TWRP is available;)

How do I assign Speed Dial #s?

When I long press a # I don't even get "no number has been assigned to this speed dial".

All I found so far are stupid Favorites or make a shortcut for a contact.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] ktmom:
There aren't speed dials. This was also addressed in more detail in the other thread you posted in.

You are right. I've known better in the past. I apologize.

I enumerated my reason for needing Speed Dial in the other thread.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] g_ding84:
Must say, I just flashed this. Amazing. No issues, running smooth. Haven't run into any trouble so far.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] saa1618:
Hi,

This is by far the most stable and vanilla ROM for our Nexus 6 I've tested. Great job by the devs and thanks for supporting our beloved Shamu after all these years... I've only found one feature missing from this ROM and that's to double press the Power button and launch camera app. Hope you guys implement this in the next update or point to a thread so we can add it ourselves.

Love,

Syed

Nevermind I found the toggle for jump to camera under gestures!!! ???
[Nexus 6 Android Development] cujo6801:
Thanks for the update....

Flash through the updater no problem...
[Nexus 6 Android Development] uicnren:
Thank you for the update.

Updating through the updater failed (installed manually via TWRP)

Phone info from the dialer works again in this build (20180709)
[Nexus 6 Android Development] ktmom:
Just curious, are you using the new TWRP 3.2.2?

"Good judgment comes from experience, and a lot of that comes from bad judgment." - Will Rogers

I'm curious about this 7/9 androidX on AFH. Is it a different project?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Stevica Smederevac:
Yes but abandoned, as far as i know
[Nexus 6 Android Development] camcory:
I saw a commit out there I believe elecktroshmock did. Will check it out.

Edit found it

That is a minimal rom I test stuff on. In this case playing with Nathan's old flash kernel.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] FReaX908:
Regarding sound of recorded videos... I saw a flashable zip in another thread for stereo recording. Is this needed with this rom? Or is it already stereo? Thank you!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] camcory:
No it isn't I need to add the commit.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] jacomail95:
Can you add Biquads support to the mixer paths file in next release? I tried to but often I get no audio output because of my errors. Only if you want to, and thanks in advance for this ROM

Any users that have noticed a large % of bluetooth drain in the battery usage stats screen please test this minimal build for me please to let me know if the issue is resolved for you. Thanks
[Nexus 6 Android Development] MiroALG:
I don't have that problem but iwill test this build ??
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Stevica Smederevac:
I'm not having bt drain problem but I want to ask you if you are planning on updating regularly that rom as your personal project and continue maintaining Aosip?

I'm more interested in that small, personal project then Aosip.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Elektroschmock:
I'm curious what did you try?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] ardonhs:
What steps I must follow to update to new build?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] wavedashdoc:
The steps you must follow have already been provided. Search and you will find them.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] camcory:
Well I believed it was a kernel issue and since I'm not well versed in that area I decided to try rolling back to bare stock (android-msm-shamu-3.10-nougat-mr1.7) branch and added in the first commits we needed at the beginning of O (binder and sdcardfs) and see. The drain had stopped but like when we first started there were BT fc issues so then I added the Nitrous driver and it appeared to still be fine and no more fc issues. So then I started adding in upstream and the issue appeared again every % drop in battery there was a percent added to BT in stats. So I again rolled back to bare stock with Nitrous commits and drain persisted. These were all clean flashes with minimal gapps packages. This such an odd thing because some folks don't seem to have this issue. I have noted that I never have the drain when I just flash rom without gapps.

Funny thing though these 2 screenshots tell differing stories on what BT is doing.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] rushier.ivan:
I still have this notification after I flashed 7/9 build via twrp :eek:
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Elektroschmock:
Thanks for the explanation. I wouldn't call it drain, as it's more like a visualisation problem or phantom drain :P

I think it has something to do how it's calculated.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] ktmom:
[MENTION=4450173]camcory[/MENTION] [MENTION=3383960]Elektroschmock[/MENTION]

FWIW, the only time I personally experienced this Bluetooth "drain" was when my battery was starting it's decline. Resetting the bootloader logs would improve the "problem" until the next ROM flash when I would have to reset the logs again. Those days I was on Pure Nexus.

I reached a point where I was unable to stop the excessive reporting regardless of what I did, and I started getting sudden shutdowns on battery power at a higher and higher reported charge level. Clearly the battery was shot.

I have never seen the problem since I replaced the battery.

I also disabled instant apps and instant tethering in the Google settings when the problem originally developed and have left them off since. My memory is that this problem showed up at about the same time Google introduced those features.

[Nexus 6 Android Development] camcory:
I'm still using the original battery. Maybe time to replace.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Stevica Smederevac:
Old battery and the new one replaced on Tuesday and the result is the same,no drain at all.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] adm1jtg:
Run accubattery app for a week it will tell you battery condition. For example mine will hit 3 years old in Nov yet it still has 88% of it's original charge ability, thus while old no need to replace.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] mahir555:
i just installed this rom today- clean way.

I was using nitrogen rom 8.1 and my avarage SOT was

3h 45m

now in this rom it will not reach 3h i think! i use just the ordinary apps no games.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Stevica Smederevac:
You need to wait for 2,3 charging cycles and then judge. It takes time for everything to settle down.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nemanja066:
We can't do anything without BBS and more detailed info (Kernel, Partial, Alarm, Summary). Maybe your battery is bad.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] L.F.B.:
Just a request to our Master dev [MENTION=4450173]camcory[/MENTION]

Can you add a solid battery icon? just like on screenshot ?

Its was a very nice battery icon in my PN rom days...?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] mahir555:
I said that because i was using another 8.1 rom for several weeks & my battery was ok . I used this rom for 1 hour & it drained 35% .

I will wipe & reinstall it now.

EDIT: now i got 4h SOT 13h phone work. Thanks for sharing advice:good:
[Nexus 6 Android Development] rushier.ivan:
[MENTION=4450173]camcory[/MENTION] thanks for the update!

[Nexus 6 Android Development] Dixon Butz:

[Nexus 6 Android Development] L.F.B.:
Yes, this rom its been butttery smooth...

This last ota went fine as always.

I have to say, no complains... ???
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Gedablo666:
Big battery drain of Pixel Launcher on stock gapps. Maybe its happened after latest update. Never had this issue, but Im not really want to use another gapps because I like google apps like camera and so on. :) But Im not really sure if its after latest update and my phone turning off on 30proc battery. Any help? Thank you. ?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] FReaX908:
Turning off sounds like a dying battery. That's a known issue. Maybe it's time to replace.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] ktmom:
Usually, the first thing I do when s problem like this shows up is a clean flash.

Maybe. Its almost 3years for my phone. Buts his was very loved and never dropped. :) Well maybe its time for a new phone or maybe battery replace..
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Stevica Smederevac:
Not to bad for Shamu:silly:

Brightness 20%, only WiFi, location off.

Some adjustments to the kernel ,no smart pixels.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] FReaX908:
You can check your battery health using "accubattery". Didn't have the problem of turning off but after 3 years I replaced my battery and noticed an improvement. Batteries aren't expensive and replacement took me 20 minutes maybe:good:
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Stevica Smederevac:
Practically ,new kernel is coming or?:confused:.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] camcory:
I'm debating on switching to to Lineage's kernel since it is actively worked on.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] FReaX908:
What happened to ElementalX? Was always my favorite kernel. Lineage kernel has color calibration right?

BTW...did a clean flash of 0718 and it's rocking:good::cool:
[Nexus 6 Android Development] adm1jtg:
What about popcorn that is also actively being worked on and upstreamed to LOS as well?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] rushier.ivan:
Sharing is caring man. :laugh: Can we have your kernel tweaks? :D
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Stevica Smederevac:
Nothing special:D. Interactive governor, hotplug disabled and input boost frequency is lowered to 1036 MHz.

New battery;)

Came across a little issue, Netflix video was playing audio only, the picture was black. The little previews were playing just fine though, weird. Anyway found a fix with deleting a lib file, just wondering if that's the right solution for this issue.

This is good (new polarcell) battery. :victory: Stock LOS (excellent kernel). Auto brightness, sync...

Sorry for off topic, would you please let me from where you have purchased the new battery?

Thanks.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] camcory:
This seems odd I just played Netflix without any issue. Did you come from another rom with a dirty flash because I haven't heard any other issues with this.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Elektroschmock:
I have a user on LineageOS with the same problem. He even installed the factory image and then upgraded to Lineage. It's still not working. Not shure what the problem is.

Interesting, I did a clean flash coming from PN and open gapps pico, could adblock (adaway) mess with it? Cuz that's the only thing I added after rooting with magisk, no other changes.

Wanted to add that I did hide Netflix in Magisk, before even starting the app
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Stevica Smederevac:
Anything special to test or just overall stability?

Should I leave it stock for a day,at least, or I can tinker right away?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] camcory:
Do what you would normally do. Thanks

screenshots

Mine usually wont flash either (it worked today for some reason), so I've been downloading from Android File Host. I looked to see if the past versions were in /data/aosip_updates, I don't even have a /aosip_updates directory in /data. Does it delete the folder after successful update?

Screen shots show what I usually see, then it reboots to system without going into TWRP.

EDIT: Sorry, links to my screen shot don't seem to be working.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Stevica Smederevac:
Only official update goes to that folder. Download update through updater and you'll get that folder..
[Nexus 6 Android Development] LankiCat:
delete
[Nexus 6 Android Development] msb17:
Yeah, that's what my screenshots would show, updater downloading, Then an install button. That's when I would get the message it would boot into recovery and install, but if it didn't, I would have to install manually. Then it would reboot to system and I could never find the download to install manually. Thus, search on Android File Host to get it, flash it, and done.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] EAK128:
Came across a small bug, the call icon remains after call has ended.

Wanted to add a reboot fixed it and haven't been able to recreate the bug.
