Ah well, case proven then. Anyone who has the same device, same settings and same apps installed can sleep soundly.

I've had a few glitches with Google camera - sometimes it doesn't start first time but is ok the second time, and recently has started to stop working until a reboot. However, I don't use the camera too often, so it's still my primary camera app, but I've now installed OpenCamera as a backup (thanks, [MENTION=4577799]p-hil[/MENTION]). It will be interesting to see if OpenCamera works when Google camera fails.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
totally off topic, but i just installed today's 15.1 zip, and it looks gorgeous, as usual. thanks, all!
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Sanabil:
Me too, i went to 15.1 as i think it natively support pixel launcher and is considerably smooth when swiping for Google feed and home menu. :good:
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] duhec:
I have a very strange problem which I cannot understand.

My shamu has already had LOS 14.1, 15.1 and 16. All of them work nice network wise all have mobile data and sms and mms work normally.

In the last two days when my phone had LOS 14.1 mobile data suddenly started acting strangely. Chrome cannot connect to any site, instagram would work very slowly, only Whatsapp somehow works. All other apps cannot connect anywhere. The 4G sign sometimes has an "x" close to it (meaning no internet) and sometime it shows no "x".

I didn't change the system in anyway, it just happened over night.

For now all I know is that the last stock android image from Google (7.1.1) works normally. As soon as I flash any of the LOS available for shamu, the data acts strangely.

Can anyone please point me in the right direction? :eek:
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] David B.:
LOS 14.1? Do you mean 15.1?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] duhec:
I meant Los 14.1 but that is not the point. It happens with Los 16.0 also.

I tried with another sim card and the problem persists so it's definitely the phone.

I also don't think something is physically broken as it works with factory image.

This really buffles me. :confused:
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] runekock:
Just for a test, try a really clean LOS. No gapps or other apps, no restore of any data.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] duhec:
Tried that also. Same result.

What I tried was:

Installed factory image 7.1.1 (N6F27M, Oct 2017)

Flashed twrp

Went to recovery, wiped system/cache/dalvik/internal storage/data and formatted data to be unencrypted

Restarted

Went to recovery and sideloaded LOS (any) without gapps or magisk

After first start Mobile data is already broken

When I get home I will try to just do a factory reset and install LOS, GApps and Magisk to see if it makes any difference. So install from internal storage and remain encrypted.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] runekock:
Really strange. Is it possible that you can borrow a SIM-card from a different phone company to test?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] jdranzer:
Is there any reason why this happens to Google Feed on LOS 16? It happens on my n6 using Rootless Launcher and Trebuchet. It's not that bad but sometimes this lagginess in the feed animation triggers a reboot. I thought this problem were about battery issues (mine is already dying).
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Sanabil:
Well i read it previously that it is mainly due to skia renderer and not open gl. But I'm not so sure. Maybe someone else can answer. During my use apps were fine but switching or using any launcher lagged sometimes smooth but mostly lag.

I also first suspected my battery as it's also kinda dying but switching to LOS 15.1 proved me wrong.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] duhec:
Update: Phone is now working normally. Let's see for how long.

The internets: So tell us, what have you done?

To be honest, I don't know. :rolleyes:

I've been flashing phones for at least eight years now and I had some bizzare moments but after I always realized it was my mistake because I did something wrong. At this moment all I can say is that the phone is acting weird.

For example: I wiped the usual five's (sys,dalv,data,int.sto.,cache) many times and in at least two encounters in sdcard folder I found a TWRP folder, which is normal, and Music and Playlists folders already there. Why were they left out I have no idea.

Then after formatting data in TWPR I copied the zip files from my PC to internal storage (MTP) and when I wanted to flash them the files weren't there.

Is it a possibility that NAND flash memory is failing?

I don't copy much stuff on it there was maybe one time I hit 60% of used storage. And yeah I flashed ROM's on it but maybe a max of 30 times in three years I had it.

It really bugs me when I fix something and I don't know what I did right or wrong. :(
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
Yup, yup, yup!
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] mrk2815:
my only issue that i hav is that the default google pixel launcher that come in gapps crashes.so just using a third party pixel cloan from the playstore and hta solved hta pesty problem.the two that i have used and i like are customized pixel launcher (CPL) and hyperion launcher both XDA developed
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] nanthu98:
After upgarding,sim card and Imei are not available. I have flashed radio and bootloader after installing os.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Sanabil:
Kindly search about pixel launcher, it has been discussed numerous times.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] vzuuz:
A couple weeks ago, I got an used Nexus. Since I need Root and don't want to have all the Gapps on my phone, I searched for roms.

So I found this rom (installed lineage-16.0-20190726-nightly-shamu-signed).

I cheked the bugs, on the first page, and thought something like, "A few featueres don't work, but it's ok, since all the main components work and the phone is stable".

Fast forward to today. So I used this rom for a couple of weeks now, and I am very disappointed.

The phone crashes from time to time. Like when I am opening the camera from Telegram, when I get a phone call, or when I change the settings from the quickbar from the top.

Yes, Camera is a known bug, I realized it after reading half of the thread. And Yes crashing because of bad battery or so. Even if the phone still works for hours after restarting it. Yes it's only 1% of the ppl with this bugs.

So yes there are a couple of excuses, why this happens. Even if it seems to me, like some Errors or Exceptions are not handled properly, but thats not the point.

Error and bugs can happen. No Software is completly perfect.

BUT pls write this into the Bug List on the first page!

So that people know that the phone crashes, before installing and using the rom for a week. And it crashes at the time, when you need it.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Sanabil:
1st if you're disappointed , you can just leave it and go with whatever you like.

2nd you mentioned camera crash, i never experienced any crash and if it's 1% then it's most likely you doing something wrong or have a faulty device like bad battery or something.

3rd The devs do it in there free time , they don't get paid to sort or fix every mentioned bugs.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] runekock:
- This is not the known camera bug: that only prevents the camera from working, it doesn't crash the phone.

- Weak battery is a hardware flaw, not software. If the phone suddenly powers off, then it is the battery - an ordinary crash will cause a restart.

- All Nexus 6s seem to need battery replacement after approx 3 years. It is not hard to do yourself.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] vzuuz:
I assumed it was that camera bug, since people already wrote, that it can crash the phone. See post #660 from dbrickg

Maybe you are right, that it's an hardware flaw and not software, but if it didn't happen on the stock rom before and only started with this rom, than I somehow assume, it to be a software bug.

Especially when it appears not random, but when you temporaly switch from one app into another. Like Telegram -> Camera or some app -> settings (by pulling down menu and changing setting) or some app -> caller (by getting an incoming call).

And I could change the battery, but after I start the phone after the crash, I still have enough battery.

1st So you are saying, I am not allowed to voice my opinion, if I dont like the rom or its description?

2nd Maybe, maybe not.

3rd Yes, thats the description of the most developer of open source projects.

But my main problem is not the bugs. Like I said, no Software is perfect.

My problem is, that you think, the rom is completly stable, when you read its description and bug list. And than you get calls and instead of answer those, your phone is shut down and you cannot even see, who called you.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Sanabil:
Saying that you are very disappointed is like devs owe something to you.. you can choose some polite words.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] David B.:
I have two Nexus 6's running LOS 16. Exactly the same configuration, and one crashes all the time while the other does not, so it's almost certainly a bad battery at fault in your case. I know it is for mine because I tried reverting to the factory image and the issue persisted.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
I didn't say it was a camera bug. All I said is you need to make sure your battery is fully charged. Mine crashes sometimes when the battery is below 65%
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] JaimeZX:
Well, for me it seems that footej is the culprit. When I uninstalled that and stuck with the Stock camera it works fine. OpenCamera works sometimes, but only the stock LOS camera app works reliably. Dunno.

Now the other issue with the Proximity Sensor calibration app fix no longer being "sticky" continues to be annoying. I checked logs through the running of that app but didn't see evidence of it doing anything so I'm kind of stuck there. :(

Is there an option to enable reboot to recovery I can't seem to find it ?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dahawthorne:
You could check out Francisco Franco's Simple Reboot. Very useful to have it on my home screen.

[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Elektroschmock:
Yes there is one in system / developer settings / advanced restart.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Markeee:
Hiding in there thanks :)

Dear friends, I need help. I am super happy with lineage 16 on my shamu. I am using my shamu almost since it got out. But now since the 22 august update, I have no sound anymore during calls, and contacts can't hear me too. What to do now? I don't want too decommission my shamu because I love it.

Wiped cache and dalvik and in android phone storage data.

Is it only me?:crying:
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] alexstan2T:
No, it's not just you.

[MENTION=3383960]Elektroschmock[/MENTION] I have a feeling it's related to the 246568 commit.

Those audio binaries look kind of important now that GSM/CDMA/HSPA/LTE in-call audio dissapeared ?.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Markeee:
Same problem here after 22 and 23 incoming and out going calls stopped working completely dead but txt and mobile data seem to be working fine ?

Searched the forum and net for a solution tried clean install nothing worked forced back to 21

Uploaded a bug report Sad day

What carrier are you using I"m on Xfinity Mobile ?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Romain66:
At least it's not only me. Thanks for your reply. I am living in Europe. Tried different carriers. Seems to be unrelated to the provider.

Exactly the same: mobile data and texting works flawlessly. The calls are also really placed. There is just a problem audio related.

And yes, I updated to 23 nightly release but with the same issue like you report too.

Anyway thanks to the devs for all the hard work.:good:
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] wrsg:
Anyone else lost audio on calls over the mobile network since the last couple of updates?

Edit: noticed it's not just me and probably related to https://review.lineageos.org/c/LineageOS/android_device_moto_shamu/+/246568

[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Markeee:
Yes same issue still persists continues on 8/24 build

Seems I was mistaken it is some kind of a strange sound issue ?

Your able to make and receive answer calls the phone rings but can't hear any sound on answered calls and the person your calling there phone rings also but they can't hear you on there end ?

Sucks forced back to 8/21 build
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] npjohnson:
I fixed the calls issue.

Please don't reply to my post unless the issue isn't solved in the 25th nightly.

Hope everyone is doing well.

Call recording

If I understand correctly, enabling call recording means to add the following overlay file:

overlay-lineage/packages/apps/Dialer/java/com/android/dialer/callrecord/res/values/config.xml

for the dialer application with roughly the following content:

<resources>
<bool name="call_recording_enabled">true</bool>
<integer name="call_recording_audio_source">4</integer>
</resources>

For instance, enabling it on Google Pixel XL (marlin) device on LineageOS 16.0 was done by the following commit:

h ttps://review.lineageos.org/c/LineageOS/android_device_google_marlin/+/230385
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] rs68homer:
I have been experiencing the audio issues with the call functionality like many others on nightly's 0822,23, and 24. Today in preperation for testing 0825 I reflashed my nexus 6 to the last factory google provided Verizon image. I verified all call functionality worked. I then Proceeded updating to 0825 per the Lineage installation guide (minus the unlock as I purchased my phone from google unlocked). I also side loaded via ADB sideload "MindTheGapps-9.0.0-arm-20190615_031401".

Results:

Pre-encryption:

1) Upon first boot, the phone makes calls successfully with functioning audio.

2) Attempted receiving a call, no incoming calls were received. Though on the other phone, the phone rings the full count then goes to voicemail.

3) I enabled the "Receive Calls" feature which was disabled by default. I then attemped calling my nexus from the other phone with the same negative results.

4) Upon second reboot the phone would still not receive calls.

Post-encryption:

1) I then encrypted the phone and rebooted.

2) Outgoing calls, the audio no longer works (as in 0822, 23, and 24).

3) Incoming calls still do not ring or come in at all on the nexus, though it does ring full count on the other phone and then go to voicemail.

Thanks for your continued work in supporting our old devices.

yes, this activates callrecord, but the variable call_recording_audio_source is device specific and may differ.

If this is a faq, please kick me into that direction:

The shamu / nexus6 is the first device for which I see a separate recovery image listed. Is this image meant to be an alternative to TWRP, or is it meant to replace the original google / motorola recovery only?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] githyanki:
TWRP is the custom recovery for flashing ROM's. It does replace the original.

The lineage recovery is not used on the shamu, not even sure if it works. I think it is made for phones that don't have TWRP support and gets built by default.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Markeee:
Good to go fixed here
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Peter1512:
Just FYI: If you look at the shamu download page, you will find next to the download link for LOS also the download link for the Lineage recovery. Also, in the shamu installation instructions for LOS it talks about the Lineage recovery and not TWRP.

---------- Post added at 12:44 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:35 AM ----------

Good to know, thank you.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] githyanki:
I'm sure it works, just saying that no one here uses it, even the instructions here say to use TWRP. I really don't know what the differences are.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Peter1512:
I used the Lineage recovery and it does work. However, it is missing many of the features found in TWRP. Needless to say, I also stick with TWRP ;)
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Peter1512:
With the 0828 LOS update I lost all the Notification dots. I double checked all settings and it is enabled. Notifications otherwise work as designed.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] painx:
I have an issue with this ROM: every time my battery is below 50% the phone shut down by itself randomly. I don't know what to do. I never had this problem with stock.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
I'm just guessing, but I imagine your issue is with the battery and not the ROM. There's a ton of discussion in this thread about batteries and how they affect the phone
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] githyanki:
Additionally, stock is clocked much more conservatively to cover up these issues, that's why you didn't see the issue with stock.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Homestar1217:
I had this issue as well, but I knew it was the battery because the life had degraded a lot on the stock rom as well. Replaced the battery and have no more random shutdowns at all (wasn't hard either, but buy new adhesive for the back).

My problem now is that when the phone is off, the battery continues to drain. I lose 20-25% of the battery in 24 hours with the phone completely powered off.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
seems like there are several posts about how easy it is to replace the battery, but now some random thing is screwed up. my feeling is that replacing the battery isn't really that easy

i really hate it that google decided to make their phones so that the ram and battery were sealed inside the phone, and not easily user replaceable. seems like blatant planned obsolescence! grrrrr
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] wrsg:
This issue earlier this week has made me more aware of another related issue with audio on a 2G/3G call.

What happens is that the call connects, I see the number displayed, but there is no audio on the call the first time that person calls.

If they call back, the audio comes through normally again. It's like the audio is going into standby or some lib is being loaded *after* the initial call (after a long sleep) and then it all works again once the first call has been made.

I can't be the only person to have noticed this.

When the libs were removed last week, it was like this problem, only permanent :D

---------- Post added at 12:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:55 AM ----------

There are several Youtube videos with varying methods, would be worthwhile to go through them. I still haven't hit that point with my original N6 battery that I need to replace it yet but the day is coming. I estimate its at about 40% degradation right now. It does still make it through each day though.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] SteveYoungs:
I think they got the idea from Apple.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Homestar1217:
It really is not that difficult to do. The back doesn't even need heat to get the adhesive off. As long as you mark where the Qi coil and NFC connections go on the new battery you won't have any problems. I used a Motorola branded replacement and it was a perfect fit.

To try to determine what is causing the drain on mine I will probably flash back to stock and see if the same thing occurs. I can't imagine that you could cause a drain like this by replacing the battery, you just don't mess with that much stuff while doing it.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] 0sA:
I installed the latest version of this ROM and noticed that it is slower than LOS 15.1 (even when I haven't installed too many applications yet). There were also two reboots (using Messenger). With OpenGapps there was no camera application at all, but with MindGapps everything works. The most important thing compared to version 15.1 is a working Bluetooth connection with my BT speaker (on 15.1 there was connection but with no sound).

I installed everything through adb sideload with LineageOS Recovery.

One-handed mode is missing a bit.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
bluetooth with 15.1 works just fine for me. from previous discussions, it appears that BT isn't a real protocol. it's more like something somebody thought would be cool, so various manufacturers sort of hacked it together, but there isn't any real agreement about how it should work. some devices do, some don't.

for what it's worth, mine is a little bluetunes speaker
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] wrsg:
Replaced the battery with an OEM using this tutorial https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V1UioknUWyY

Only annoying parts were a couple of stubborn screws, and also replacing the battery ribbon cable (the one that is attached to the battery itself) afterwards. It's fine now though.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] wrsg:
Stock Browser app is blocking me from taking screenshots, is this on purpose or a bug?

Is TWRP decryption working on LOS 16? I thought no one updates TWRP for shamu anymore so it is incompatible?

[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] pinakini:
Me too. Is there a solution?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Elektroschmock:
You can further raise the volume similar to this commit:

https://github.com/LineageOS/androi...ffd37e3#diff-57ee036a7295578ffddb9b3426ef24f3

I didn't do it, because it may lead to distortion when recording in loud enviroments.

Thanks, I will live happily with the volume available.
