I had luck on ebay. I believe the one i received was for oneplus 6 instead of 6t and the edge where the sim button sits was just a bit longer than the slot on the device. I used a nail file to sand it down a little and it sits in my phone flawlessly now. Currently running dual sims, OOS Beta 14.

Since latest Google Play Services update (14.7.99) that occured on 4th decembre 2018, my battery lasts only a couple of hours even if I am not using it. All Google Apps don't work anymore including Play Store.

When downgrading to version 14.5.82, everything works again but even if I disable automatic updates in Play Store, Google Play Services keeps updating itself to latest version without asking me any permission.

Is there a way to force block of Google Play Services update until a fix is found ?

Otherwise, does anyone can give me an updated guide for installing TWRP and an alternative ROM ?

I am using Flyme 6.2.0.0G. I have root access with SuperSU installed in system. Root access is confirmed with RootChecker. But I understood that this is not enough. Getting root access doesn't mean bootloader is unlocked, does it ? Is there a way checking bootloader is unlocked before trying to install TWRP ?

Thanks for any response you could give me.
[Meizu M2 / M2 Mini Questions & Answers] adarshm4you:
There is a post on forum about unlocking bootloader and my tries on checking it on comments. See if it helps. Dont flash twrp without confirming bootloader unlock. Otherwise your recovery may lose and may cause brick.

I started to have this issue on 6/12/18. Google play services used 25% of my battery and I could not use any Google service. (It asked me to sign in again and again.)

I followed this guide (the flash recovery part is mistyped there, I needed fastboot flash recovery filename.xxx to install the new recovery). I downgraded to Flyme 4.5.2 (or whichever version allowed me root by signing in to Flyme), unlocked the recovery and installed AOSP. (CM12 had the same issue with google, Lineage OS didn't boot up.) When I sign in from AOSP, Google emails me that a login was made from a Meizu M6 Note. It thinks my device is safe. It even lets me download Netflix. :)

I also tried whitelisting my device and allowing less secure apps at Google while on CM, these didn't seem to help.

About it, custom rom doesn't work. Google Play Service does not work on Lineage Os.
[Meizu M2 / M2 Mini Questions & Answers] bart89:
Same here. I've tried to use custom Roms with Android 5.1, 7.1 and it's all the same.

On the other hand, I've got back to Flyme and the issue also occurs, but there's a slight difference. After the Play Store auto updates to v. 12.x.x. then it stops working (error 920 or can't log in). Resolution for this is to delete the Google account in Settings and add it again, yet this works for 5 minutes tops...

Hi all, dbrand mistakenly sent me the XL version of the Pixel 3 skin and since I have the regular Pixel 3, one of you can have it just by paying $3.50 to cover the shipping cost (includes tracking). This is courtesy of dbrand. Lol I don't recall their XDA username so I can't tag them but you can thank them for the massive discount. First one to respond to this thread and willing to pay for the shipping cost through Venmo gets it. Please do not PM me about it first. I will PM you after you are the first person.

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oem42:
So my Note 4 (N910G) has been running like total arse for about a year now with really slow response time to screen presses, the mmc fail on boot problem and random reboots. Ive been using wake lock and that at least keeps the phone working but its SLOOOOOOW.

So I decided to root it and then try out some roms to see if I could improve its performance. Anyway when I tried to install CF-Auto-Root in Odin I got the 'There is no PIT partition" error. I then found (i think) a PIT file and tried to install that but couldn't get it to work.. odin seemed to freeze up and do nothing. I then tried to do a factory reset from the OS .. and everything seemed to work.. but then I rebooted, got a mmc error.. and then the next time I booted there was no factory reset, everything was as I left it.

Anyway... im wondering if im wasting my time trying to root/rom my phone while im getting constant mmc errors? I saw the hardware fix and im going to give that a try.. but yeah im at a loss as to what my next steps should be.

Any guidance would be great.

If you've seen the mmc_read failed error then a new ROM wouldn't make a difference other than stressing the emmc even more by installing it.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oem42:
Bugger. I saw that hardware fix and im going to give it a shot. Assuming it works would it still be dangerous/pointless to change roms?
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Big Elf:
No, I'd assume that the 'fix' means the emmc is reliable enough to cope with increased disk activity. Only way to be sure is to try it though.

EDIT: After rereading your comments in your original post. You need to load both the PIT files AND the stock ROM into Odin before running. You can't install the PIT file on its own.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oem42:
Yeah I loaded the stock rom and the pit file.. But Odin just seemed to hang

https://ministryofsolutions.com/huawei-bootloader-unlock-service-all-new-models-new-firmwares

Thinking of buying a Chinese version since the price is more reasonable and I am going to China next week. But I think Magisk or global ROM is needed for using Google Pay, otherwise, it fails on adding credit cards.

I am just wondering if it is possible or there is another way to use Google Pay?
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] jhs39:
The Chinese ROM gets updates much more quickly and often partly because they don't have to be certified by Google but because the ROM is uncertified Google Pay won't work. Getting Google Pay to work on an uncertified ROM requires root so it isn't possible on this phone.

[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] kaibosh99:
Buying a custom unlock would be cute, but what then? No one is going to develop anything for this phone. You would have the most crude 'root' there is, with all the security stuff shut down that comes along with it. Sadly, unless a full bootloader unlock is discovered (hopefully one that works with all variants) there wouldn't be any point because you wouldn't have a properly setup root to begin with, you certainly wouldn't have Magisk, and it would be utterly pointless to run custom roms because NONE of the proprietary hardware goodies would be supported.

That's the price we pay for this phone, and we better be happy with it. So far, I'm not going into seizures over not having SU, but honestly I find the phone kinda boring overall so I don't really care.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] miffymiffy:
But you're missing the fact that this is a treble phone. All the roms are readily available. All you need is to unlock bootloader then flash a system image.
[Nexus 6  General] Caio 73:
Dear members,

I want to ask for your valuable help. After 4 years of loyal service my Nexus 6 became unbearably slow and laggy, particularly the camera. I tried to factory reset it but that didn't help much.

So after looking far and wide for a suitable replacement I ended up buying an Oneplus 6t because everyone praised it so much.

I must admit that the phone is really fast, specially coming from a my shamu, but I can't stand the screen. I never thought I would notice the difference between 1080p and 1440p but it's painfully obvious to me, even at a distance. I also didn't expect to hate the tall aspect ratio so much. To summarize, the 6t is great, but the screen kills it to me. It has to go back.

So now I am back to square one. And that's why I am here. I want to kindly ask for either a suggestion for replacement or a way to speedy my old nexus 6 up.

My criteria are: must be android, large flat screen (no infinity nonsense), 2k or higher resolution, 16:9 is much preferred, wireless charging is a huge plus, camera quality is irrelevant (any camera will do), price no object. Xperia XZ2 premium is unfortunately out (not sold in Canada, no warranty here).

Or please suggest me a way to speed up performance on my great old Shamu until I find a good replacement. I don't have expirience with rooting, but I can follow a tutorial. If this is the best option please tell me which Kernel / Rom combination you suggest to increase performance.

I look forward to reading your suggestions. Thank you!
[Nexus 6  General] NGOwner:
Learn to root. It's a must to get the most out of our Shamus. Then check out these two threads:

https://xdaforums.com/nexus-6/general/rom-discussion-oreo-t3763189

https://xdaforums.com/nexus-6/general/rom-repository-info-discussion-tips-t3829957

Decide if you want Oreo ROMs (first thread) or Pie ROMs (second thread).

Completely reformat your shamu. Start from a totally blank slate. Then follow the install tutorials for the ROM you select.

For me, Nitrogen's Oreo build has been rock solid and FAST (I can't run Pie because I need VoLTE and Wi-Fi Calling for Tmo. Those don't work on yet on Pie builds, but do work well on Oreo builds). Breathed totally new life into the device.

[Nexus 6  General] Caio 73:
Thank you very much for your reply!

I've rooted phones before but always using tool kits and tutorials and since I only own macs, my options are limited.

I've tried to find something that I could follow but was not successful. I figured that because the phone is so old support probably had dried out.

Any suggestions of tool kit to use or thread to follow for a rookie on a Mac?

Thank you again!
[Nexus 6  General] NGOwner:
Support for Nexus 6 has not dried out. Not by a long shot. Devs are still cooking up ROMs for it.

Since you have a Mac, i have to tap out. No clue on Macs.

Find a buddy with a Windows Laptop and borrow it for a few hours. That's my recommendation.

[Nexus 6  General] Galati93:
After trying almost every ROM that our marvelous devs put out there for our Shamu, i think Pure Nexus 7.1.2 still the best in terms of speed/performance. I'm using it with Elemental X.
[Nexus 6  General] Deleted member 8880810:
You could download Bootcamp and a trial copy of windows. That would make it easy to follow most tutorials so that you could add a custom rom and root it if you wanted to.
[Nexus 6  General] Donz7733:
You can try Nitrogen or Pixel Dust rom

- Decrease the animations to 0.5x from dev options

- Decrease resolution to 720x1280 (if you dont mind blurry display)

- Play with kernel options (optional)(I used the default kernel and Ex kernel manager)

Device will operate buttery smooth :)
