Ok now the launcher3 or QS home app is crashing. I have a secondary launcher but how can I fix that if I like?

Any advice guys will help me and perhaps others .
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Jertlok:
This is getting chatty.

Post a full log of the crash, or hit us on the telegram group. You can find it on the main post.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] squidblaster:
On newest version. Wiped data and clean flash via sideload.

Everything working great thanks!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Jertlok:
Rename /system/priv-app/Launcher3QuickStep/Launcher3QuickStep.apk to Launcher3QuickStep.apk.bak

Reboot phone

Rename application back to Launcher3QuickStep.apk and reboot

Now QuickStep should work without any issues

This happens because the package manager doesn't update the permissions for the package. If you have another workaround (maybe cleaner), go ahead and post it.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] JimmyKane9:
Did it via recovery but still crashes. Permissions pehraps ?

Other than that the update rocked. Much bettee peeformace

Btw i am https://github.com/jimmykane/
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Jertlok:
Yeah, we are using DU's Launcher3 and that has permissions that only platform applications can get.

The easiest way would be to clean flash, but I am trying to find a dirty way (workaround).

Updated previous post (#1486) with a working workaround.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] JimmyKane9:
If its easy and you dont waste time ping me back. Else drop it. Ill go clean as soon as monday passes.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] mataflakitas:
I tried to install this rom, but I never get it to start, it just gets stuck on the black G home screen, spend 10 minutes some solution ..?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] lj27416:
Did you forget to wipe via recovery or fastboot AFTER the ROM installation ?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] JAMedlock83:
Ya'll are crazy if you try this. I followed the directions to the T, and it bricked my phone. Had to take it to a friend of mine to have the original stock put back on it! Without him, I'd be without a phone!!!!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] AXUAN:
Check what you have done wrong before complaining.

I have no problems here.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] TRgamer:
:good: ... exactly ... also not faced any problems ... rom even better with yesterday's update incl. the "extras" now ...

Very smooth ... for battery life gonna need to wait some cycles and see ... but so far so good
[Nexus 6P Android Development] alek889:
Everything working great down here..Excellent job!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] ufizo:
Is OpenGapps a stable option?

Or ezio84's SimpleGApps is required?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] pixelateddrive:
after installing OpenGapps Aroma, camera crash
[Nexus 6P Android Development] AXUAN:
I installed ezio84's November SimpleGapps-arm64-9.x.x version， flawlessly.

[Nexus 6P Android Development] TronGokuu:
working flush.

so far everything is working awesome! my semi perma camera solution is going strong still, have an issue with gkeyboard not doing swipe input but switched to swiftkey no problem, spark is great and threw in "LSpeed" and its still on the same charge since yesterday morning, ram manager is showing between 890 to 1000 megs free with auto kill enabled batterysaver pro is working great too, was torrenting all night on it and not one crash,

for the lad with the static G problem at first boot, same thing happned to me with flashing magisic, i just rebooted and held the volume down button during boot and the colourfull g came right up, i expected bootloader but guess i missed it by a sec and am still running since then.

running stock gapps , i know its bloated etc but havent run into an issue yet, ill be using this daily for my work, ill keep updated, needed the camera for insurance claims and man when its working is it ever clear
[Nexus 6P Android Development] simarguram:
can you explain where did u got stuck?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Lawlrus:
He had to ask someone else to reflash the factory image because he is clueless, and you think he can give specifics of how his flash went? LOL
[Nexus 6P Android Development] glorenzo7mm:
Wipe Wipe Wipe flash rom and open_gapps-arm64-9.0-pico-20181111 wipe internal storage format userdata reboot thank you developer everything

Strange bug. 6:30 AM is showing as 6:03? When the time changed to 6:31 it displayed correctly.

Screenshot
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Lawlrus:
I've seen this before, not on aosp though, I've only saw it on los/cm based ROMs, almost like the device is sleeping too deeply that the clock stops, were you not using it for the half hour it stopped?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] :
Installed

Used opengapps stock.

As mentioned, camera keeps on crashing.

How do I change dpi? Used to change it using developer options.

Has it moved?

Thanks.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] javadahut:
Dirty flashed over previous version. As far as I can tell, all features confirmed working with no issues. Camera, Bluetooth, wifi, etc. Will report back if anything changes.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] ssenbonzakura:
Is your magisk working after dirty flash? I'm tempted to stay on the 10/14 build cos everything works perfect
[Nexus 6P Android Development] kantjer:
Magisk is working fine on any build

If you think 10/14 is working perfect, last build will be epic :laugh:
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Sapphiress:
Its possible. I just remember waking up and seeing that my clock and phone had different times.

You can change the "smallest width" setting(600+ is tabletUI although i don't recommend anything over 620) or just use the display size slider.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] ssenbonzakura:
I've been a believer from last build so I'm jumping on then :D
[Nexus 6P Android Development] andry1112000:
Hello, I installed a beautiful image, before clearing the memory and everything as it should be. I have an endless load. The only thing I see is The Google logo. :(
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Sapphiress:
This question has been answered many times. Once you install reboot into recovery and clear data, and make sure you're using the recovery from the first post. If you've already done that, wipe everything and try again it will take 5-10 minutes on first boot so be patient.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] andry1112000:
Thank you for your answer. Please excuse me, I'm not English speaking and I can't read the whole thread of messages. :)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] vampercy:
I install the las update every is fine but . Now my PC no recognized my device , any idea? any suggestion?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] andry1112000:
Tried to establish on your advice. Put rekaveri from article 3.2.3-1, I establish an image, I restart rekaveri and I clear date, (I tried to clear a standard set of clearing a cache, date, dalvik), I restarted in OC waited more than 10 minutes, did everything too some times. Still Google logo and endless loading.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] javadahut:
Magisk working fine here.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Sapphiress:
You need to format data using the button labeled "Format Data." For some reason doing it manually via "Advanced" doesn't format it correctly. At least in my experience. For good measure go into "Advanced" from the main menu and fix contexts. Then it should boot.

Also, Make sure you're wiping system before flashing the zip.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] andry1112000:
And there may be a problem with gapps? I tried without them and with pico 9.0. Maybe I put the wrong gapps?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Sapphiress:
...Well yeah.

Use the gapps from the first post as those are the only thing OP has officially endorsed. That should have literally been your first step in troubleshooting. Normally if OpenGapps will work correctly the maintainer will post a link to them in the post not a customized package.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] v4victorii:
Great rom, congrats and many thanks to the devs. A few things I found,

a) magisk manager won't show in the app drawer first boot, somehow a few reboots and formatting internal storage solves it.

b) browsers won't download anything, also reboots and formatting internal storage solves it, not sure which one.

c) could not choose usb modes after cable connect, all options are greyed out. Setting default usb configuration in developer settings doesn't work neither.

Anyways great rom!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] mataflakitas:
Any video of the installation of this rom, I still unsuccessful at the time of installing via twrp ..?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Sapphiress:
Just a quick word of advice. If you don't know for sure what you're doing here, please take a minute to think about if you really want to be messing with the low level functions of your device. These are basic skills that require little more than reading and repeating Especially with a beta ROM, as they usually require a decent amount of experience in order to keep up on maintenance to keep them running smoothly and finding workarounds and/or fixes for these issues.. I'm not trying to be mean or tell you what to do, i just want to give you a chance to rethink your actions. Perhaps if you're new to the Android Community you should start with the oreo ROMs thay have been worked on for a long time and usually install and run very smoothly. but everything that's being asked has been answered in the last 5 pages if not more than once. Following instructions, and reading a few pages of information is not hard. Unbricking a device with a corrupted bootloader is.

Just a quick thought. Remember to backup! :cool:

Any error output? Logs? Loud Jarring Noises?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Lughnasadh:
Just to be clear, for I have seen others who do this, Wiping /data through the Advanced Wipe feature does not format the /data. It only wipes it. You need to use the "Format Data" function to actually format that partition.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Tung Trab:
Can anyone tell me how to use split screen on this rom, pls....
[Nexus 6P Android Development] mahlerchiro:
ROM works well

But google play services keeps crashing any suggestions. Tried everything I could find when googling. Uninstalled updates cleared the catch for the app & clear the catch for the entire system
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Sapphiress:
Hold the apps icon on the top of the card in your recents screen.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] squidblaster:
Glad you were able to return to stock but you should expect problems and be prepared to work them out in something this new.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] squidblaster:
If anyone wants to see.

This is my battery life and phone has been extremely snappy since I flashed. I use ex kernel with zram off and ultimate thermal mod.

I flashed rom through CUSTOM twrp in post through sideload, after data wipe.

Working great :good: phone honestly feels new and twice as fast.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] alek889:
Just to report my experience.This is for sure an excellent work.I dirty flash(only wipe dalvik and cache) with the OP work around for the launcher.Now you have Google page at the swipe to right,kernel had the sound boost option and my phone has never been heard so well,double tap on home and the device goes to sleep,a lot of customizable options under Sparks category and a few more that i dont going to tell you so you find it your self and enjoy the experience.Once again,great job!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] abbasgholami:
You can install all the steps above but I did right
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Sapphiress:
It should go without saying that you shouldn't be modifying the system without a surefire way to restore unless you're prepared to lose your device.

Are you using the provided gapps? Have you re-downloaded the zips and checked their sha256 sum to rule out packet loss/corruption? A lot of times a single packet will get dropped when downloading or a CRC error(in RAM, HDD, or USB Transfer) resulting in a small amount of corruption. allowing the zip to be flashed but one or more files being a bit messed up. My advice would be to re-download, check hashes, then re-flash.

Good luck :)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Sheetzie03:
Just try it d** it! What's the worst that happens? :eek:
[Nexus 6P Android Development] shaikhalid007:
In my experience pretty solid work.

Loving the option to switch to Oreo recants main reason for not upgrading to pie they are just hedious

But got my phone soft bricked flashing this but somehow managed to pull it out.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] funnyred:
First of all: thank you for a great rom.

Everything works flawlessly (afaik 5Ghz works at least the last time i've tried to use 5Ghz wifi spot it worked)

There is only one thing, I've tried to use orbot in VPN mode and had no luck, I can't even click Ok when a connection request shows up.

(steps to reproduce: launch orbot, turn on the VPN slider, try to click ok in the new window)

Flashed camera from a reddit thread and got a camera with night sight, hdr+
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Toutatis_:
Disable smart pixels
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Tasneem khan:
What is the benefits of thermal mode....?

I really don't know..[emoji16]
[Nexus 6P Android Development] TheXGX:
Thanks!

Okay, thank you for this. I'm going to try this now. I'll report back.

Currently on 8.1 ABC.

UPDATE:

Everything's good so far!

I got an error when trying to format internal storage, but retrying made it work like you mentioned.

Using THIS camera and everything seems to be working.

Magisk didn't show up after flashing though, even after a couple of reboots, but installing the Manager APK manually is a good workaround. Modules are working fine.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] brycksje:
when i want to flash the update my recovry asks for a password

do you guys know this password?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] kantjer:
only if you tell us :D

It's the same PIN you set to unlock the phone
[Nexus 6P Android Development] brycksje:
oh wow feeling stupid now

thanks mate!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Asharh:
Do I need to flash the recovery file if my angler doesn't have blod issue.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Lughnasadh:
Yes, you need to flash the FBE recovery. But you do not need to flash the BLOD workaround.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] powerserge1:
using mybackuppro or titanium, if I wanted to jump from Pure nexus 7.1 to this ROm when doing a backup can I restore both apk and data?

Know we need to wipe all data when flashing rom, things might be different, not sure if it is wise to restore data from my apps
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nnooaamm:
If I want to return back to Oreo, should I need to format the phone again?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] kantjer:
Restoring app data can give problems. You can try but be prepared some apps won't work as expected.

If you want to be safe, restore apps only and setup manually.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] kelcso:
any question...

Hi Mans,

very good the ROM. Congrats!

But I have a question.

Mobile network select has automatic option only?

The Manual selection not working....
[Nexus 6P Android Development] PsymH:
Which reddit thread is it exactly? :)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Sidewind75:

Can I flash elementalx or franco on this ROM

Since theriotically we can flash zip made for 8.1 on 9.0
[Nexus 6P Android Development] squidblaster:
88%. No idea I am using elementalx app to modify the stock kernel that comes with the Rom. I didn't try to flash a 8.1 kernel yet. Stock kernel working great for me.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] shaikhalid007:
Thanks
[Nexus 6P Android Development] squidblaster:
More performance at cost of hotter CPU. Phone so old doesn't matter to me though.

In a bit more detail it allows CPU to stay at higher frequencies instead of immediately down clocking to lower ones when CPU is hot

Can I flash it over the last build of the rom from TWRP or do I still need to do a clean install?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] alek889:
Guys,you all need to buy/get EX Kernel Manager.Just for one thing...SOUND! Go to the application and under sound category change left and right speaker to 26.Man,it sound AWESOME! I can bet that out there is not a phone with this kind of sound.Just awesome (im using magisk viper too)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Sterben Pistole:
the gapps link no longer works.

What's a good kernel for this rom??
[Nexus 6P Android Development] davin3377:
default is good:laugh:
[Nexus 6P Android Development] shaikhalid007:
But I would really like a custom kernel.what I'm really missing is option to disable touch boost

Edit

I flashed ex kernel working just fine on this rom

[Nexus 6P Android Development] Sterben Pistole:
ahh, i didnt see it lmao. thank you!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Sheetzie03:
I do this with every rom I flash. Kernel must have sound mod built in. Usually will put the right speaker at 27 or 28 and the left at 25 or 26. To me, it always appeared the right speaker was the slightest bit softer. Maybe it's just me. Lol
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Tung Trab:
If i want to flash another rom, do I have to wipe internal storage again ?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] sivaiah:
i am not sure but i think yes , because this rom encrypts the internal storage so it may create a conflict when u flash other rom

---------- Post added at 03:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:19 PM ----------

did any one had success with call screening for this rom ??
[Nexus 6P Android Development] mohdschizo:
Yes true. I've install the 1st release of this rom and revert back to 8.1 Rom. It wont boot. Bootlooping and stuck at bootromlogos. What i did, i just flash stock and redone A-Z. Then flash 8.1 rom.

That was before. Now im using the new StatiXOS release and it rock man!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] mahlerchiro:
Reinstalled lasted rom from 11/09/18 and used open gapps nano and that seems to have fixed the problem. I am assuming that any of the open gapps for 9.0 would work on this but i know nano is.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nickzea13:
Which kernel do you use? The kernel comes with this ROM doesn't have sound mod I believe.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] powerserge1:
Installed the magisk viper4android module, 2.5.05 did not stick so installed 2.4 and working. Using stock kernel that comes with the ROM.

master power enabled

speaker optimization on

extra loud on

moderate setting

Sounds pretty good. These are the settings for the phone speakers.

ROM working good so far, only requests from me would be the phone and contacts to also be themed black. Also missing to the hold back to kill which is what I am use to. Great job devs! Pure Nexus has finally been replaced. Also using the camera posted a couple pages back, seems everything is working.

Google assistant on 7.1.1 use to always listen even with screen off and phone sleeping with "ok google" command. On Pie this does not seem to be working. Battery saver has been turned off in settings. Have to wake the phone, then google assistant works as it should. If anyone has a solution kindly post. Not a huge deal, just before could be on the other side of the room and have google assistant do it's thing without even touching the phone.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] terry98:
I have 2 days using this rom and find awesome, great work!.. I was previously using elemental kernel with oreo and I don't know if it is my mind or this rom drains more battery... have anybody noticed?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] D@rekills4:
Maybe I wanted to know the answer before I flash.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Spannaa:
Nothing to flash, it's just an app - install it, try it and if it doesn't do what you want it to, uninstall it again.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] alek889:
Your believe is wrong .Stock kernel have sound mod.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] rickywangca:
Anyone have any problems with video recording? Each time I open camera, taking photos is fine, but as soon as I switch to video record, it crashes. Bug?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] squidblaster:
Its definitely loud when I do this. How's the distortion? Mine sounds horrible guessing speaker bad or I am just sensitive to it.

Edit. Left speaker at 30 with right off no distortion and quiet. Right speaker crackly and horrible after 19 definitely some audio issues with my phone.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] D@rekills4:
It's Google Camera 6.1.*, it only works on 9.0 and I think it needs the camera libraries to function properly, which is why I asked.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Spannaa:
This rom is 9.0

I've tried a few GCam 6.1 apks - some work without any issues and some don't.

Try GCcamMod-6.1.013.apk
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Subirats345:
Oh! Which version of Magisk are you using? Mine it's 16.7 (Beta).

[Nexus 6P Android Development] dnabrit:
Sorry, forgot to include that portion in my previous post. Yes, in both the clean and dirty flashes I double-checked that the Phone app was set as the default by entering settings, -> Apps -> Default apps -> Phone app and then selecting it again under Phone (system).

I should have also mentioned I am using the Phone (beta) app from Google, version 22.0.204206752 from the Play Store.

thank you :)

pretty stable for a first build. no problems so far
[Nexus 6P Android Development] dracinn:
I certainly hope not for two reasons 1. there isn't an 8.1 ROM to upgrade from and 2. you should always do a clean install with major updates.
