Has anyone been able to get Assist with Voice Match working?

I can try to turn it on, but the toggle jumps right back to off. I have even flashed 100% stock, then back to BL, but still to no avail Assist with Voice Match does not turn on.
[Google Pixel 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] callifo:
I had that on one of the other ROMs and the only way to fix it was to move to this ROM. I've not seen it again on this one.

When on the other ROM, I tried every suggestion, and whilst I could fake enable it, it wouldn't actually work (you downgrade the Google app to the stock version, and re-run enrollemnt, you can then get it to activate, and then re-upgrade; this however only showed the toggle on, as it still didnt actually work). Even if I could get the enrolment process to start, it wouldn't recognise me saying OK Google, so it seems like the whole component supporting it was broken.

Has anyone tried out Android 10? Worth an update until the Pixel 2 ROMs update themselves?
[Google Pixel 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] TheNameBrand:
Asked this in the Bootleggers Telegram and didn't get help there, so I've got to ask, where is everyone getting the ROM? On their official download page they have original Pixel, and the Pixel 3 models, but no Pixel 2 link. From the activity on this post it seems as though it's still being supported with OTA updates (and thus I'd imagine "Shishufied" as they say), so it's odd it's not there. Perhaps it's the same ROM as the other Pixel models? But that doesn't make much sense to me if they're going to separate all of them like that. Pardon my lack of intelligence on the matter -- very much a script kiddy with limited extensive knowledge. If I could be pointed in the right direction for the walleye ROM... that would be an incredible help.

Honestly, I've been on Q since I heard I could get it via a beta program and I'm overall unimpressed? Which is why I want to come to Bootleggers. Force dark mode is a neat thing, track location only while in app is a neat thing, but beyond a few minor details it's not much to write home about. Of course, that's just surface level stuff, I have no idea what's going on under the hood to make it appealing in that regard, I don't have the experience to speak there.
[Google Pixel 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] ViperPyro:
I think Pixel 2 has lost support? The last official release on their website was 4.2, despite 4.3 being on some other devices. I hope a dev is willing to support in the future as I love this ROM!

Since the download link has vanished, I uploaded my copy to two sites for reference for anyone:

Ahhhh I was afraid of that... But wow! Many great thanks for uploading your copy of the rom. Can't wait to flash this later today! You're a lifesaver.
[Google Pixel 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] TheNameBrand:
Just wanted to confirm that I've got everything up and running great! I ran into a few issues along the way but was able to sort them out by following this youtube tutorial EXACTLY (just replacing RROS with Bootleggers). Not sure what I was doing wrong! I will also note that after installing, it sent me to a screen that said something along the lines of "blah blah blah, OS is critical" and I just selected "try again" after which, everything booted up perfectly fine. Loving this ROM though! Really incredible stuff. A true absolute shame that they just dropped support for walleye. Such a great, well rounded phone.

if you are connected to the edge network and have no incoming or outgoing traffic, do you still get billed per kb/min for being connected?

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Romain1911:
Ok so, I work in a phone repair shop.

Today a guy came in with 2 6P's. One with battery issues, one with BLOD.

Well I tried the software fix for him for the BLOD 6P.....no dice. So he said, you take it. I have no use for a brick.

Well guess what phone I'm writing this on ?

So I tried a couple different flashes of software, different ROMs, stock and otherwise with the 4 core fixes and twrp. Saw no life regardless.

So I thought, nothing to lose, let's see what I can do.

First though was to just heat the SOC and see what happens, still nothing. Just a basic heating nothing extreme. I've brought back a few devices just doing a basic heating before (iPhone and Android)

Obviously not the case here.

So with nothing left to use I went extreme.

Removed the EM shield. Sat with the heat gun on the SOC (moving around slowly of course) till I smelt the sweet sweet smell of solder. As soon as I did I took these little clamps we have for holding down screens like iPads, and used a single one to ensure the SOC was held down to the board. Let it cool.

Then cleaned up the paste, and took some thermal pads from a broken screen Samsung a5 2017 we had. And replaced the old paste with those pads( a little cutting required) replaced both on top of the SOC and on top of the shield.

Put back together, and 4 hours after receiving it in bootloop this 6p booted up with all 8 cores running like a beast!

Don't know how long this will last, hopefully for a long time. We're going on almost 24 hours now so here's hoping ?

On another note, I plan to tear down the A5 screen for the copper heatpipe tommorow and replace the EM shield thermal pad with the heatpipe and see how that goes.

Hopefully this mini guide can help someone out who may be more willing to go all out to fix their fancy brick ?

UPDATE:

Heat pipes have been added.

Applied Arctic silver 5 with a copper shim directly on the SOC.

Put the em shield back on, took copper "heatpipes" from a Sony z5 screen, and noticed how thin they were. Arctic silver on the EM shield, cut a large piece of copper from the back of a Samsung S5 screen, then cut that into 2 pieces to about 3x1". To simulate proper "heatpipes."

Sat the copper pieces in the spot the EM shield sits and re-assembled.

Phone is still working just fine, I've been monitoring temps and the 4 bad cores. They haven't had an issue and the SOC sits at idle at 32°

I decided to stress it a little bit with multiple apps running, split screen YouTube(1080p60fps) and facebook. Max temp it hit was 37°.

Using "CPU Monitor" from the play store for this information.

And currently using it as my daily driver as my own sort of stress test lol
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ronald_loulan:
Nice...

are you able to boot into recovery before heating up the soc??

Mine unable to boot to recovery at all cost...

Tried heating with heat gun at soc but still unable to boot recovery...
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imjuz4you:
Were you running android pie before it started bootlooping?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ronald_loulan:
1st bootloop was on 7.1 and suscessfully rebooted.

So I quickly flash 4 core mod.

After 1 month of battery replacement the device bootloop forever.

It survived for 2months+ from the day I flash 4 core mod.

I tried oreo and with 4core mod and etc but failed.

Moved to hardware repair, as above but still failed.

It bootloop and unable to boot into TWRP, not even booting TWRP thru ADB.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Romain1911:
I can't say without having the device on hand, and running some tests. But from what your describing and the processes you've tried it sounds to me like the flash storage chip may be your issue. Either it's doing the same as the SOC and slowly separating from the board, or it's a generally bad chip.

Just taking an educated guess so don't take my word for it lol
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Romain1911:
However, to answer your original question (I'm sorry I didn't see it)

When the phone was booplooping I was UNABLE to access recovery, even after flashing an OS, however I was able to adb transfer and flash twrp without any issues.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ronald_loulan:
You mean adb push file.zip?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Romain1911:
Yes
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ronald_loulan:
Tried that but my device doesn't boot into recovery...
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ncc8uetou5et:
When the phone was not working you was able to send with adb files to it? This is strange. Normaly you can then just flash with fastboot (fastboot flash recovery filenname.img) the 4 core twrp and from there on you can use usb file transfer to load for example your LineageOS and after flashing lineage os, you then configure the kernel with N5X-6P_BLOD_Workaround_Injector_Addon-AK2-signed.zip . This have really not worked (to make the phone usable with just 4 cores) but reheating the SOC worked?

Can you explain some more in detail what temperature (in celsius) you have used to make the solder of the soc fluid again?

Did you think this would also work when you just have a regulated SMD soldering station and no other tools? I ask that because you told that you have been using some other tools to hold something (if i understood you right).

nexus 6p BLOD

whats up guys, i have a nexus 6p with BLOD, i am unable to flash the 4 core fix provided by XDA due to USB debugging being disabled before the loop. is my only option to dissasemble and go for a reflow of the cpu? or is there anything i can do using fastboot or adb? cheers
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ncc8uetou5et:
You dont need usb-debugging. You need a unlocked bootloader. You unlock the bootloader with "fastboot oem unlock" when your phone is in bootloader mode. It does not matter what Android you have installed when your bootloader is unlocked or unlockable.

If you have missed to enable the option to unlock the bootloader previous, then you have to heat up your phone to boot up once and then immidietly enable the option to unlock the bootloader.

But thats all not relevant in this thread. This thread is about fixing up the SoC again and not for "getting it at work again with just 4 cores". There are ton of other forum posts that cover that.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dyl2526:
well i have no way of getting the phone on, i cannot unlock the bootloader due to allow bootloader unlock not being enabled. i dont have access to settings. ive heated the phones exterior to no avail. so i will have to dissasemble it and fix the soc so yes i am on the right thread thanks.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Romain1911:
Yes it worked just fine sending files too it however the 4 core fix still did not work hence why I went into the hardware method.

If I remember correctly the heat gun was set to max for this, so in our case it stops at about 430°.

As for it working without other tools, I can't say.

What was used is a clamp that we use in my shop to hold down screens that have been just been replaced so that the glue solidifies with the screen held down.

I can only assume that the clamp held it down so that the solder would make proper contact while it re-solidified, at least that was my hope when I clamped the chip down. Whether or not it was the main reason for it working I can't say, and at my shop we lack the hardware to do a full chip removal, re-ball, or anything of that sort unfortunately.

Cpu reflow

Hey man, im in the same boat with my nexus 6p.. when reflowing the SOC do i need to use any flux ?

cheers
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Romain1911:
Eh, when I did it I did not use any. But that was for lack of having any, otherwise I would have used it lol

So I would use flux for sure

Thanks for the reply man, I’m new enough to this so what’s the best type of flux for this phone or is there one that’s good for smartphones in general?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Romain1911:
No worries, Novacan old Masters flux in an 8oz bottle is what we usually use here, just didn't have any at the time. It's on Amazon, and fairly cheap.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GohanBurner:
This is exactly what I thought was going to work, just never had another 6P to give it a whirl. I have brought back numerous dead-GPU laptops this way by resetting the solder. Getting it to 385-400°F for 10 minutes and letting it cool reset the solder and allowed the GPU to work like new again (although results varied). No telling how long this will last but glad to see it worked on a phone.

SOC Question

__________________________

Hi I wanted to ask you a quick question. When you say "SOC" you're referring to System on a Chip correct? Is this separate from where the actual cores are? I was going to drop my phone at a phone repair shop where they are able to do some Micro soldering so I was just hoping to get a little clarification and any helpful tips that you may recall. Thanks again for your help and posting this on XDA.

Hey there. So SOC is just the basic term we use in my repair shop for the CPU in any mobile device (phones, tablets, mobile gaming like nintendo DS's)

But yes it is where the cores are.

Did this on a N6P just yesterday. Seems like it stopped reboots which were happening every 30 min or so.

I used a heat gun with battery removed. I don't think a hair dryer can ever get hot enough. I did melt some of the rubber and plastic pieces around and the camera now has a slight halo around the frame but this phone hasn't rebooted for 24h now. Thanks for the tip.
