I am able to modify the color of the notification light for an app that uses Android's built-in notifications settings in the apps' Manage Notifications settings. Such as in Gmail settings, Manage Notifications > Light Color or Google Messages settings Notifications > Light Color. For other apps, you may need a third party app... Haven't really investigated that.

Have a good one!

Does Volte work on this rom?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Prouder:
Despite my last post being almost 2 years old, I logged on just to tell you I found the solution. You must have the [SmartBar] enabled rather than [Stock] (under Settings > Sparks > Navigation > Navigation Mode). From there you can long press the home button to launch the assistant.

ALSO you have to go into (Settings > Apps & notifications > Default Apps) and set Google to be the default assist app. You don't need the Google Assistant app from the play store

Hope I'm not too late!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] JimmyKane9:
2 questions.

1. What camera port to use and where to get it ?

2. How can I download more dictionaries? I am using Greek keyboard and there is no spell checker.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Sheetzie03:
1) First post. See screenshot

2) if you type 'volte' into search, you'll see a few posts that directly answer your question.

Please read, use search 1ST, before posting. If you did, you would have gotten your answer hours ago.

Not being nasty at all, simply trying to make to a point. Hope you understand.

Good day.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Sheetzie03:
If you downloaded it from the play store, try freezing the other launcher that came with rom, or you could rename it and add .bak to the file

If you side loaded it,

First uninstall it, then

Grab the latest pixel launcher 3 apk arm64 from apk mirror

Then make a folder in root-system-app and name it anything

Then put the pixel launcher apk in that folder in system-apps , set permissions and reboot, see if that helps.

wifi on 5GHz network gets connected but shows "no internet" and cannot use it. Any possible work around as of now?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] sjandroiddeveloper:
I don't have smartbar enabled . I have the stock bar, I can see the animation when I long press home (home button splitting into 4 colored dots) but it doesn't do anything else.

Already have default assist app set to google

I originally thought it to be Simple gapps issue but then I clean installed with open gapps stock and same result. It's a rom issue I guess
[Nexus 6P Android Development] king870:
No hard feelings man lol. I always search and read the op before I do anything to my devices. I've been dealing with Android devices since the g1 days. I should have been more specific about what exactly my problem was is all.

Hold back to force close?

One of my favorite custom ROM features is holding the back button to force close the current app. I didn't see this in developer options were I would expect it, and didn't see it anywhere else.... am I missing something or is this not part of the ROM?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Prouder:
I tested with both simple and open gapps as well. Seems that the only workaround for now is using SmartBar

WiFi calling

Hi all, thank you to the Devs, this is the most stable pie rom I've found, but I am just wondering if the WiFi calling works on the new build? It is essential for me, as I live in a place with rubbish reception. Thanks in advance
[Nexus 6P Android Development] abhyuzzz:
This is one of the best rom i've used on N6P.

Will 'now playing' feature of pixel 2 will be available for this rom in future updates? If available it will be awesome.

Developer can u implement this feature on future updates??

Thanks
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Champdroid:
Hmm seems Franco kernel just doesn't like pie ROMs. Just like on pixel experience gives me random reboots on this too. Also lots or screen of battery drain. Presumably also the kernel not the ROM. Will give stock a bash.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Champdroid:
[MENTION=5980525] runs smooth and snappy. A couple bugs for me. One is no biggie but just an FYI on initial setup phone freezes and needs to be rebooted. This has happened both times I've clean flashed it. The other one is a biggie. No camera app works for me. ROM comes with no camera and I've tried installing 4 popular ones including google camera and all of them just freeze and force close.

EDIT: ok strangely I tried the new google apk from the pixelexperience thread and it works fine. Strange. Nothing from the playstore worked

@jertlok this fbe version of twrp seems to have a problem with nandroids. None of my backups will restore. They flash fine but just keep rebooting to recovery. Has anybody successfully restored a nandroid with this twrp?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] clumsyoxygen:
I've had problems restoring from a nandroid backup. It only restored system and GApps with NONE of the data.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] zarqly:
Yes, I have the same problem with my recovery. Yesterday I made a nandoid backup to test and I do not recover the partition data. Kepp on 99%.

another bug I've seen is when you have the dark theme the letters of the Launcher are not visible.

For battery life mostly

Btw, in my app drawer i have white font on white background, it's weird. Can i change it ? Maybe changing the background color? I tried both dark themes, but they don't change anything

(EDIT: solved changing my wallpaper to a dark one, then back to the original one. Weird but works)

[Nexus 6P Android Development] aum11:
I don't find it a clear step by step guide. If You look at with the eyes of a beginner You will see that there is some assumed experience.

So please something even more straight forward if available.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Spannaa:
Some basic knowledge IS assumed - this is XDA developers forum and developers can't be expected to provide a comprehensive, step by step guide for complete beginners in every thread!

The guide covers everything necessary to install the rom correctly, you just need to search and read up on the steps you don't understand.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] aum11:
How about at least giving links to places where beginners can start. Everyone , even You, was a beginner at some stage.

It is just simple kindness to help others.

Hi everyone. I really like how this rom looks, so I decided to try installing it again, following all the directions. This time I was on the latest boot image from google, Installed rom per directions, but no mobile data. :( Mobile data was working on latest image from google. What can I do to fix this?

Hey there bud, you need to have the latest vendor image, just in case flash the latest from here, it's a zip so all you have to do is reboot into TWRP and flash it. Good luck bud.

And this is the downfall that XDA has been experiencing for the last three plus years.

Everyone jumps to the, you're not being kind, or hurting my feelings when people are told to expect some things to be done on their own. This is what society is becoming in general.

Literally wish I could take you back in time homie to when I first got into the custom ROM scene years and years ago, where if you didn't take it upon yourself to research you were literally flammed, and that's what it was, I didn't even know this forum had mods that dealt with that kind of stuff until a few years ago. I spent six months reading and flashing ROMs on my own before o even made an account so I didn't get flammed.

Its pretty simple, there is a QA section, read the stickers and threads, there's a search option that works very well now if you use the XDA app. (Search used to be total ass)

There's also the general discussion. Forum, and you can use google, YouTube, I mean all this information is out there. Now of you refuse, and need to be spoon fed, start posting in the QA or general forum, and I'm sure people will help out if you give it some time, there's no reason for you to rush ricing your phone or you'll next be spamming threads with help me I bootlooped my device!?!?!?!?!? Posts.

You need to understand that coming into a development thread, asking for basics when devs and other people already do a lot of stuff for people with zero compensation can come across as rude. Regardless if you see it, others do.

Edit: also, I'm not sure if people still even think of this, but if you come across a person that you see always trying to help people, send them a private message. Back when I used to have more tolerance on the LG G2 forums, I used to always have a horde of people that would ask me questions in DM's and even if it took a day or two, I always responded to people. Just pointing out, again there are other ways to go about things.

One of the sweetest Flashes i've ever done, using it in a daily basis it works perfectly fine, but if you love the "Google's Camera App" you might want to get a second thought, because that's the only major problem someone could find, the camera app closes itself without warning when processing an image, either with our without any feature of the app, everything else, seems fine.

My opinion tho, i miss that camera but i love the rom, it's either one or two.

[Nexus 6P Android Development] cathlynn:
I ran into a really weird issue today. The phone was running a bit sluggishly because I was overworking it just a tad by taking a lot of photos in HDR mode so I restarted system. I've restarted it before with no issues but this time, for some reason it would not let me back in after restart. It will keep asking for pattern unlock. When I put in the right pattern the screen just turn off. When I put in the wrong pattern, it will give me the Wrong Pattern message. I restarted it several times to no avail. After many frustrating attempts, including reflashing the ROM (just dirty flash), I finally found a way around the issue.

When I'm on the unlock screen I click on Emergency. Then while in emergency, swipe down on the status bar then click on the settings icon. It will then ask you for the pattern to unlock. Putting the right pattern here will successfully unlock and take you to the settings app. By the way, before going to Emergency, if I just go straight to the status bar then Settings, the pattern unlock wouldn't work in that screen either.

Like I said, is a very strange issue.

Update: since this has happened once, it seems to happen all the time now when I restart the phone. From what I can surmise (since I can't get the logging to work) it seems after the phone restarts and when I tried to unlock it the first time using pattern unlock, the system UI doesn't seem to be kicking in so that's why it keep kicking me back to the unlock screen.

Update 2: I couldn't fix the issue despite many attempts (workaround works each time though, just cumbersome). In the end, I just reflashed the ROM after wiping data (not internal). The problem has gone away now. Will post again if I run into it again.

Hi, you must have twrp installed, yes? I have found sometimes that has happened to me as well, on other ROMs.

Without causing too much headache for yourself - in the twrp file manager (while in recovery) go to [system/data/lock settings.db] and delete that file! That should help get you back to the OS.

[Nexus 6P Android Development] powerserge1:
grrrr

Installed the latest update with clean flash WIPING cache, dalvik and data.

I thought this would not delete my apps and data? I did not format data...

Where is developer options? Tapping on build number does nothing

Sorry, a bit annoyed. Resetting everything up will take some work!

Appears data for my apps is there, if anyone has advice to restore please advise. Usually use Mybackuppro so would imagine I just restore the apk and it keeps the data intact. Correct?

Still unable to get developer options enabled. Anyone else? Can't access the phone via PC until I do....
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Spannaa:
A clean flash including wiping data would obviously remove user apps and their associated data.

Formating data would clear your internal storage too.

Developer options is under settings > system > advanced
[Nexus 6P Android Development] powerserge1:
Thanks for the help, guess I have to start over

settings/system/advanced tab reveals reset options and multiple users but no developer options.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] cathlynn:
What does deleting that file do?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] powerserge1:
Anyone know how to turn on developer options on the latest release? I'm stuck. The usual does not work, tapping the build number, nothing and nothing under advanced settings/system.

Man I'm stupid, have to get magisk to stick first, should work.

Update, that was it, rookie mistake, been flashing for years lol.

Had a old copy saved of my apps via Mybackup Pro so was able to restore. Had to reenter everything though. Does anyone use something else where it saves not only the apk but the app data as well that you can restore all during a clean flash? Saw posts earlier that folks were able to restore the apk, but not the data. Those that are flashaholics must have a way.
