[Nexus 6P Android Development] H3nk:
Thank you for your advice, The steps i did to get her are.

- Installed adb and fast boot

- enabled debugging and unlocked bootloader

- Flashed twrp via fastboot flash recovery the twrp-3.3.1.0-FBE-10+-angler.img

- Copied the PixelExperience_Plus_angler-10.0-20201202-1738-OFFICIAL local storage of phone.

- Booted too recovery-mode and installed PixelExperience_Plus_angler-10.0-20201202-1738-OFFICIAL via twrp.

- After installation was finished i formated the data and rebooted the device after this i got stuck at the "G Logo".

- After this i tried rebooting to recovery-mode and formate the data again a few times via twrp and also via the fastboot - w command. But im stil stuck at the G logo

I did not try flashing any other roms custome or factory beside my initial try of the pixelexperience rom. Regarding the Blod was only needed for devices that have boot loop issue with or without an custome rom. As my device was working fine i don't think my device has the processor issue. I don't think i can check if this is the case? I am scared to make changes to the recovery image as this is the only way to interface with my phone at the moment. So im not sure if i should try the Blod recovery image with the patch. Or if i should try and download the factory 6p image and try and restore this and start over.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Lughnasadh:
Your initial installation method sounds correct. Were you on the latest stock image (Dec. 2018) before flashing? Did you wipe data and caches before flashing the rom?

I would suggest you flash the latest factory image (Dec. 2018) via fastboot and make sure it boots up (to eliminate any chance you have the BLOD). You will then have the latest bootloader, radio and vendor installed as well. Then install TWRP, wipe data and caches, flash the rom, format data and reboot.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] H3nk:
"Were you on the latest stock image (Dec. 2018) before flashing? Did you wipe data and caches before flashing the rom? "

I was on the latest stock image avaliable before i started the installation of the PixelExperience rom. I did not wipe data/formate data before i installed the PixelExperience zip. I only formated data after the PixelExperience zip was installed and before i rebooted out of TWRP.

I tried to install the factory image from dec 2018 yesterday evening.But i had issues when using the flash-all.bat (fastboot: error: Couldn't parse partition size '0x'.) so i ran the needed commands manually. But it got stuck at the bootscreen just as the custom image.

Today i was able to flash the stock image version 7.0 and it is working again. I am now updating the OS again too the latest stock version available via ota. After this is finished i will try installing TWRP again and flashing the PixelExperience image again. Thank you for all the help/advice.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] H3nk:
I was finally able to flash the PixelExperiance image and im running through the initial setup as i type this post. I was able to flash it now i did have some issues with the adb driver version and some issues with the TWRP recovery image that got reverted if i booted the stock image. But i was finally able to flash it by flashing recovery via fastboot. Booting TWRP, Wiping/formating data, sideloading the PixelExperiance ZIP. I think i messed up with my initial try and that i did not wipe user data before i installed the PixelExperiance ZIP.

Thank again for your advice, would have thrown in the towel without it.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] ryo2456:
As my experence, I recommend you to reboot into recovery once after you wipe everything. And then start the flashing stuff.

I found a bug on pixel experience rom that my earphones are not working on that build..I am talking about latest build..but in plus edition earphones are working so please fix that issue on pixel experience rom..
[Nexus 6P Android Development] el_charlie:
Hello,

Which GCam are you guys using besides the included in the ROM?

The included gcam doesn't have portrait.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] AvdonR:
The included gcam doesn't even work for me. Crashes on every app launch. Tried clearing cache and storage but the issue still remains. Might use another camera app unless I can find a fix. Would much rather use the gcam app

Update: reboot fixed it. Figures
[Nexus 6P Android Development] el_charlie:
Yeah, the default works "fine" but it doesn't have portrait. I´m currently using a modded Camera GO with night/sight but I find the quality not great.

The P3 v12.6 from cstark was a godsend on Pie. It doesn't work fine here.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] bigcelo75:
Try this one out. Worked fine for me when I was using this rom. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1-g4G1GRvG6mw3JcGEdiUMMe8ycIxCIbw/view?usp=drivesdk
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Ata Ur Rehman:
P3 v12.6 + pie best combination ever !!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] el_charlie:
This app won't install because the default GCam has the same package name. And I won't root the phone just for this.

Thanks anyway
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Kaloith:
I managed to get it installed on my Nexus 6P and booted, but I saw that it failed to mount /vendor upon install. Is this normal or something I should worry about? Flashed from stock Android 8.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] kelifu:
First off, thank you PixelBoot for your hardwork and all the roms you put out for Angler. My 6P has been using the lastest Pixel Experience - 9 (pie) ROM for about a year and it's nearly perfect. I had trouble with the fingerprint scanner and pin unlocking on earlier builds with of Pixel Experience 10, so went back to 9. My question, is the latest PE 10 build on par with the stability of the 9 version? I'd hate to upgrade, only to have to revert back again. Thanks!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] marianodelfino:
The lag that cam has is monstruos....
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Ata Ur Rehman:
You can ignore it, make sure to reflash bootloader, radio and vendor when you decide to flash/ switch another rom.

Thermal throttle prolly

PROBLEM INSTALLING INCREMENTAL PACKAGE "PixelExperience_angler-10.0-20200101-0925-update-20201202-1710-OFFICIAL"

Hi everyone. I installed the last ROM with blood patch and everything works fine (thanks Pixelboot). Then I noticed the 2020-12-02 incremental package and tried to install it via TWRP, but nothing........ERROR 7.

My steps:

Clean install of the latest ROM "PixelExperience_angler-10.0-20201202-1710-OFFICIAL" via TWRP - ok

Applying the blood patch "N5X-6P_BLOD_Workaround_Injector_Addon-AK3-signed" - ok

Once the phone is booted and everything has been completely installed, I download the incremental package and boot it via TWRP like the ROM and the blood patch. ERROR 7 during installation.

Any advice or suggestions? Thanks in advance
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Ata Ur Rehman:
Hey you already installed the lastest version via twrp right? so no need for incremental pakage.. its fo those you wanna update from January build :)

HI

I install the rom but Its stuck at the "G Logo"

install with twrp and fastboot but same problem

befor flash rom Format data and factory reset

after flashing Format data

befor this my rom Havoc OS-3.11 [13.11.20] [EOL]

and now reinstall Havoc OS-3.11 [13.11.20] [EOL] and no problem

so ....

and how reflash bootloader , radio and vendor?

where can find corect file bootloader , radio and vendor for my phone
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Aditya kukreti:
First off all pixel experience doesn't need any bootloader, radio or vendor images to flash..they all come inbuilt and it doesn't matter which rom have you been on previously and as far as rom not booting is concerned the new build doesn't have that problem..it booted normally without any problems but make sure to format the data properly...
[Nexus 6P Android Development] havzhin:
Format data before and aftar flash rom

How long does it take to install?

40min stuck at the "G Logo"
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Ata Ur Rehman:
after flashing rom.zip in twrp, reboot to bootloader and type "fastboot -w" then boot normally it'll take 5-10 min to boot up.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Aditya kukreti:
If you are flashing ROM from twrp then you have to wipe cache first..it's very important otherwise ROM will not boot..after when you flash the ROM from twrp then you have to format the data and then reboot to system and if you are flashing through fastboot mode first format the data and when you swipe to sideload make sure to check the wipe cache option then flash..if you do these steps properly I am sure it will boot because these are proper flashing process..
[Nexus 6P Android Development] havzhin:
It worked

Thanks a lot

Sometime the video recording shut down and jump back to main page with this error pop up.

We have three nexus 6P and they all have this problem, threre are two phones even always crash at nearly same time span, sometime it's around 5 minutes, sometime it's 15~17 min.

We have tried 10 and 10 plus version, but both of them have this problem, and our recovery image is "twrp-3.3.1.0-FBE-10+-angler".

Thank you soo much Pixelboot for bringing back the pure Pixel Experience and furnish our aged angler with fresh new features! Thanks alot 🖤
[Nexus 6P Android Development] bigcelo75:
Definetly need to take this opportunity to thank the dev for all his hard work. You kept my phone alive even after the BLOD issue. @PixelBoot thanks for all your efforts.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Aditya kukreti:
Thankyou pixel boot for keeping our device alive..the journey of pixel experience Android 10 has been great.. though if gcam works perfectly on Android 10 than that will be just perfect but nevertheless it was great to use pixel experience Android 10... looking forward for Android 11 ROMs..

[Nexus 6P Android Development] ExaHamza:
This is not a bug report

Thank you very much ixelboot for the excellent work, I am already using this ROM for a month now. Two problems make me think of returning to stock but I would not like it so I ask for help: First it seems that the system attaches the camera, because sometimes the phone does not unlock using the face, the flashlight is inaccessible (this only happens if the camera is in use) and any other app (like Whatsapp for example) can't use a Camera, I've tried to track it to try to see where the problem is coming from and how to deal with it I haven't been able to. I ask for help in this. Another thing is the performance in the game (Call of Duty) in the ROM stock also crashes?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] blackmonk19:
UPDATE

Flashed the BLOD Patch by Osm0sis and the device booted just fine! :p

Thank you @PixelBoot for the awesome ROM and all the hard work, God bless!

=============================

HI guys, needed a lil help please. I keep getting this error when trying to flash the boot image...

fastboot: error: Couldn't parse partition size '0x'.

Yes my device is BLOD affected... and was successfully running PE 11.11.2019, till I decided to update!

Any suggestions will be really helpful. Thanks!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] ExaHamza:
Hello pixelboot, I just wanted to inform you that, sometimes my cell phone is up to 3% charged and turns off, sometimes it turns off with 14% when it is in intensive use which is strange. thank you, blessings.

Battery issue.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] HydraXYZ:
I have a bug: No file transfer by usb.

No USB data connection when transferring data the normal way. So just plugin usb and set file transfer option from drop down. (adb etc all work, but quite a hussel to use that for normal transfers)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] trabadura:
delete
[Nexus 6P Android Development] marianodelfino:
When it turns off at x%, open twrp, set timeout to maximum and brightness to maximum and let it consume the battery until it shutdown, doesnt matter if it says 50% or 0% on twrp and you saw your phone turn off at 3%, let it discharge on twrp until it shutdown. At that point your phone is completly discharged, if you turn it on you will see the led on the left corner blinking red. Charge the phone until 100%, unplug it a scroll the app drawer a little bit for a few seconds up to one minute, if it goes down to 99% or less, plug it in again and let it charge to 100%. Unplug it and use it. That process will recalibrate your battery.

System Update question...

I have TWRP installed, and tried system update OTA. After reboot, it tries to run recovery script and errors saying "Unable to locate zip file '/data/system_updates/PixelExperience_angler-10.0-20201222-1025-OFFICIAL.zip'."

I am not able to do OTA updates. Even if I try to manually go to /data/system_updates folder, the zip file isn't there. It's like it never downloaded even though it says it downloaded it.

Any thoughts?

TWRP: 3.4.0-0
[Nexus 6P Android Development] ExaHamza:
this procedure is very strange, but I'll try now. thank you very much btw
[Nexus 6P Android Development] ExaHamza:
Hello pixelboot, again, while we have fun thanks to your great work, here's another record. As everyone knows, this ROM has certain problems with the camera, i noticed that if I open the camera, and rotate the smartphone And close the application, the whole system is unable to use the camera (hardware) and it is necessary to restart the Smartphone.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Ata Ur Rehman:
That's because you're using wrong twrp, use (this)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] meluvalli:
Got it! Thank you :)

How to install the BLOD Patch ?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Lughnasadh:
If you have the BLOD you should flash the workaround zip from this thread in TWRP after flashing the rom and before booting. Anytime you change/update rom or recovery this will need to be flashed last to patch everything so it will boot.

[Nexus 6P Android Development] xenonrider:
Well, I returned to the stock Nexus 6P ROM yesterday and my phone is stable, non sluggish, get's 3-4 hours of SoT and WiFi doesn't drain the battery anymore. It was nice getting some Pixel features on the old Nexus 6P, but the drawbacks were just too much to put up with. For anyone else considering the switch back it's definitely worth it.

[Nexus 6P Android Development] marianodelfino:
Got to agree... 8.1 has the issue of mobile network standby "drain" but you get 3-4 hours of SoT, kernel works pretty good, seems they modify it or something, have mine with interactive and it's working more of like a relaxed governor so it's working great so far

Hey, guys, I need an emergency!

I spent 3 hours in attempts to install this ROM for my 4-cores device and it's still unbootable. The last time I used patched original ROM but it looks old and poor.

Please help, what should I do??
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Lughnasadh:
After flashing the rom and before booting, patch it using the workaround zip in this thread... https://xdaforums.com/t/tool-how-to...-death-blod-workaround-flashable-zip.3819515/
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Anuvadak:
Of course I did that (I also tried the boot-10.img from the 1st page of this topic, similar result). But I flashed the BLOD patch directly from twrp. Doesnt work. Does it make any sense to use sideload instead like in the tutorial? I'll be able to try it only in 4 hours
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Lughnasadh:
Well, you didn't say you did that. Did you format /data after flashing the rom? If not, do so and then patch the rom and then boot.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Anuvadak:
I always do full wipe before flashing:) I did just like you write (wipe - flash - patch or flash boot-10.img; wipe - flash the last factory - flash - patch or flash boot-10.img) many times - same result
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Lughnasadh:
I'm talking about "formatting" /data, not wiping, They are 2 different things. You need to format /data after flashing custom roms on Android 10 for this device.

1. Flash rom

2. Format data in TWRP

3. Flash workaround zip

4. Boot
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Anuvadak:
I did that dude. Later I'll send you the step-by-step screenshots of what I do

[Nexus 6P Android Development] neswii:
Very early impressions, but with this rom I was surprised to find that the nexus 6p did not shut off overnight as it usually does. I intend to find a good "PC accessory" use for this phone, maybe as a webcam, digital picture frame, or something simple. So far it's working well. I'll consider updating my post in a few weeks to add ideas, maybe make a separate post to help people use their nexus 6p for useful things.

[Nexus 6P Android Development] icewolf461:
Hi. How do I know if I should use the 4core TWRP or the other one? In CPU-Z it shows 4 cores stopped.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Lughnasadh:
If your phone boots normally, you don't need it. Sometimes only 4 cores will be running because of hotplugging so that's not a good indicator if you have the BLOD.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] icewolf461:
Hello again~ I'm having an issue with WhatsApp video calls. Whenever I try to switch to rear camera, it freezes and then ends the call. I'm using the 4core twrp and boot.img. Any help is appreciated :D

EDIT: I'm not sure what the actual defintion of a BLOD is but to me it's an infinite loop? So I did not think I had that issue. However, after trying many PixelBoot ROMS, Resurrection Remix and even Lineage, my phone would reboot randomly when I'm not using it and I have to enter the password to unlock it instead of fingerprint. I've followed the guides here on XDA to the T as well as YouTube videos for the exact rom I'm installing and I've encountered the issue with most of them. This is the first time I've tried a 4core version and it hasn't rebooted so far after leaving it overnight. So I guess a BLOD isn't necessarily infinite? xd

Edit 2: also what exactly does it mean to leave it before using because of thermal throttling?

a. on but not charging

b. on and charging

c. off

d. off and charging

I just want to make sure I'm doing it properly >_<
[Nexus 6P Android Development] marianodelfino:
1. Happens in all 10 roms.

2. It is the infinite loop hence the word BOOTLOOP. It's a manufacturing problem that nexus devices has. The patch disables the conflicting cores.

3. After flashing the device will heat. You should always let it sit for a few mins after flashing, right after the setup is complete that the device starts the background tasking after OS boots up. I guess they are referring to this.

[Nexus 6P Android Development] EX39:
Only 4 cores are used after brushing this firmware, is there any way to use more core?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Lughnasadh:
Either you flashed the BLOD patch when you didn't need to (which disables the 4 big cores) or your phone is hot and is hotplugging (disabling cores until it reaches a cooler temperature). If you didn't flash the BLOD patch, then wait for you phone to cool down and you should have all 8 cores running.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] EX39:
I didn't brush the BLOD patch, only 4 cores were still working when my phone was cooling down, the other 4 cores were offline.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Lughnasadh:
Still sounds like your big cores are offline because of hotplugging. Make sure you let it cool down enough. I've used this rom before and I know that there is nothing in it that would cause the big cores to be offline all the time.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] EX39:
I have make sure let it cool down enough. Other 4 cores be offline all the time.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Lughnasadh:
Not sure what to say then. If you didn't flash the BLOD patch and let it cool down enough you should have 8 cores running.
