tl;dr Verizon users might need to force their phone to not use LTE in order to receive phone calls.

In case anyone has the same problem, I was able to place calls like normal but was not able to receive calls. I upgraded from 15 to 17 so the lack of IMS was a new hurdle for me. Texting was normal btw.

Disabling "advanced calling" through Verizon made no difference. The option to toggle it on the phone is not present which makes sense, so I thought switching it off through my provider would cover all bases. 3 hours on the phone with VZ support trying all kinds of stuff, you'd think at least roaming would work but I'd had it enabled and no luck. Tier 2 support really tried even though I told her I was rooted and running a custom ROM. She could see that my outbound calls were going through 3g but incoming were still trying 4g and then just failing, never rang on the device.

Ultimately the only way I am able to receive calls is to force my phone to only ever use 3g. Apparently with Verizon there's something about their push for 4g to be the minimum, phasing out what the rep said they refer to as their "1x" network which I took to just mean "below 4g".

I'm still surprised that Verizon's HD Voice is tied to 4g. YMMV by region - I'm in a major metro area and T2 said that in some of the bigger cities it's all-or-nothing like this. Any network option I chose that included LTE couldn't receive calls, so right now I have "CDMA/EvDo/GSM/WCDMA" selected under Network & Internet > Mobile network > Preferred network type. I'd bet other options would work too as long as they don't include LTE. I thought the order they're listed in implied priority and that if LTE was at the end it would try the others first but those didn't work either.

I haven't noticed lower sound quality in my calls, I guess I don't call other VZ users often. I'm sure my data would be slower without 4g but since I'm home on the wifi all the time now anyway I don't think it'll be a problem. The phone is a lot faster and more stable now compared to LOS 15 so it's an acceptable trade-off for me.

is there any possible to play HEVC video ?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
pretty sure that's possible. we managed to put a man on the moon. it only cost ten bzillion dollars. you can do it too!
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] mrk2815:
just curious, how come los 17.1 lacks as far as security updates where as los based roms, like cr droid, colt os have august security where as los 17.1 is still on july security .
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Feimitsu:
I've noticed two things about the "At a glance" widget included in the Pixel Launcher shipped with this ROM:

1) It can't be removed/deactivated from home screen

2) It doesn't display weather for my location

3) If I add another At A Glance widget by long pressing the Desktop / Widgets the weather appears immediately (on both). As I remove the one I added, weather stays for a few hours on the "default" widget, then it disappears.

Anyone with the same issue?

EDIT: seems an issue with Pixel Launcher itself
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] alfacrux:
Pixel Launcher is not shipped with LineageOS. The launcher shipped is Trebuchet ;)
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Feimitsu:
Right, so it must have been installed with Gapps Mini package. So I guess that's an issue with that :) Thanks!
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
feimitsu: i apologize if i'm misunderstanding your post, but see above. looks like the recommended gapps is nano or smaller if you want to avoid pixel launcher
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Feimitsu:
No, on the contrary, I want to use Pixel Launcher. Just this weather bug is annoying :)
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] mrk2815:
but if you install mini package, then it will install pixel launcher.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Feimitsu:
I know, I was thinking the Weather bug described a few posts ago would be Lineage specific, as I didn't have it with AOSIP Rom.

On another note, the latest nightly solved the mobile data bug for me. Now it always activates after a reboot, no need to fiddle with airplane mode anymore to trigger it :) Many thanks!
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dvdram:
An old security problem concerning system profiles has revived:

- create a profile that does not use screen locking

- assign a trigger to this profile, eg changing to this profile when connecting to your home wifi

- check that you're in standard profile using screen lock

- leave settings and lock your N6

- now swipe down quick settings and activate wifi

- device will be unlocked

While this behaviour can be seen as a big comfort, it is also a big security breach. So there should be an optional flag that can be set, whether profile switching without entering PIN should be allowed or not.

Is anybody else having problems casting the screen?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dbrickg:
I've always had trouble casting the screen. The only thing I can generally get it to cast to is the google chromecast dongle.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] maddog3030:
sorry to hear that I've always been able to cast to everything is just been recently that I can't cast the anyting, I can cast from YouTube apps and stuff like that but not from the screen cast icon on the pull down menu.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] beeewell:
Casting works on AOSiP 8.1
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Elektroschmock:
I just tried it, but I can't replicate your problem.

I tried casting the screen to Chromacast, Chromecast 2, Chromecast 3 and a Chromecast Ultra.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] mithic:
Hi, I have the same problem casting the screen on LG TV webOS. :(

When i was on LOS 8.1 screen casting have worked wonderful.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Elektroschmock:
Afaik LG never supported real casting.

Casting only works 100 % of the time if you use a chromecast or your tv has an inbuilt chromecast.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] maddog3030:
May I PM you the logcat?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Elektroschmock:
Yes, I can have a look at it, if there is something related to your problem.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] maddog3030:
Thanks it dose.

Tried to pm from app but " sending message failed" error I'll try later.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] maddog3030:
Sent...I had to shave it down, hope I didn't cut out anything important.

Thanks
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] mithic:
I have tried also on an old lg tv with NetcastOS (which have miracast built in) and my N6 screen mirroring works great.

Any way i don't use often this function so it was only for test.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] maddog3030:
Reloading gapps worked, I can cast again!!

Thanks again
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Elektroschmock:
Thank you for your feedback.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Feimitsu:
Since installing this ROM I have an issue with the Burger King app.

When completing an order in my country (Hungary), the app basically tries to connect to a bluetooth beacon located in the store to retrieve the order number. Only problem, the beacon is never detected in any store.

It worked just fine on AOSIP 8.1.

On the bright side, my banking app now works, and didn't in AOSIP :)
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] maddog3030:
Might I suggest McDonald's....:cool:

but in all seriousness in developers under Network there is the Bluetooth AVRCP option, try switching them up see if anyone works better.

And Check if Bluetooth scanning option is on.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bluetooth_low_energy_beacon#Tracker
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dvdram:
Whenever I install an app from Playstore, that requires permission to use the location service (GPS), I can not grant this permission the easy way: after starting the app for the first time, a window pops up asking permission. Possible answers are "always", "only when using the app", and "deny".

The first two buttons simply don't work. It is not possible to use "always" or "only when using the app" there. The only button that works is "deny". I have to close the app, enter the system settings and grant the permission there, and then I have to restart the app again.

Is there an option or a setting that I haven't found yet, that triggers this behaviour?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Feimitsu:
Yeah McDonalds app doesn't work for me, complains about phone being rooted (which it isn't). Bluetooth scanning is on.

Will try the AVRCP options although I think they only apply to media speakers :D

Thanks!
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] githyanki:
Send kinda funny, but the best way to block the app from thinking you have root is to root the phone. Magisk hide will block those checks.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Feimitsu:
AVCRP options didn't make a difference unfortunately :(
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] maddog3030:
Next step is a logcat.

Thanks for updating shamu to Android 10.

Works fine till now ..

Noticed that there is no screenshot tile to add in the quick setting panel .

Also there is no option to take long screenshot which i found in other shamu 10 roms.

A very good work keeping in mind it is a nightly version :good:
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] cc35359:
mobile data?

i flashed this morning, full wipe. radio version matches.

however, i have now found that mobile data is not working. sms come through, but thats it. no ip address is received, lte connection shows great strength. no apps can reach the internet. at&t in my case.

some searching shows people with other model phones are also experiencing this. has anyone else ran i to this issue?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] mrk2815:
Elektroschmock thanks for your help. i'm wondering if i can do this.install the rom and gapps through twrp command line, an then once all that is done then update the lineage recovery within twrp to then hav the auto updater working with the lienae recovery instead of he twrp recovery. wil taht work for hten future OTA's.

For me camera and flashlight work perfect; maybe affeted by google app, re install google app
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] victorchen101:
I did a fresh install again and try to install different variant of openGapps(pico), but still no luck no matter I try built-in camera without shortcut, google camera and 3rd party camera apps. :(:(

Maybe i should roll back to Linage OS 16.0 for stable usage, thanks everbody's help. :):)

---------- Post added at 01:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:33 PM ----------

Hi all, just in 15 minutes ago my camera & flashlight just back!! :):)

Following steps are done before my camera & flashlight work again:

1. Fresh install for linage OS 17.1. (sideload method)

2. Install pico variant of open Gapps arm 10.0. (sideload method)

3. Boot into system first time. (Camera & flashlight not work)

4. reboot into system 2nd time. (Camera & flashlight not work)

5. reboot into system 3rd time. (Camera & flashlight just back with 3rd party camera apps & control bar)

※Built-in camera apps still no shortcut.

Hope above suggestion will help other people.;);)
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] nhatminh87:
Like author said: problem from lineage os 15, but after you install sucessfull one time, all next update will keep camera and flashlight work well
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Picard87:
Wow, yeah, 3rd reboot did the trick. Camera and flashlight now work on April 8th build. Will skip April 9th as it (at least before the reinstall) caused to crash pixel launcher.

Thanks for the hint!

[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] wrsg:
Clean installed 17.1 20200409 version with TWRP (did factory reset first)

Opengapps Pico

Magisk 20.4

Few things I noticed early on (which I'm assuming others have or will pick up on)

Weird lock screen behavior when a password is set (I enter the password and press the tick key, and nothing happens, and then after a minute or so, it starts working again)

I'm getting freezes during group video calls in Whatsapp (my video freezes, the other people connected are okay)

Also is it normal for the Calendar app to not show any settings?

Google Camera is working.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] mrk2815:
Elektroschmock thanks to your help.i got lineage 17.1 installed.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dvdram:
Thanks for this positive message! :)

I already installed LOS's own recovery. (LOS 16). So I guess I will have to reinstall TWRP again, there is no way of doing these steps using LOS recovery, is there?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] eelco_akker:
I don't use the los recovery, imho. Not needed. The ota updates are also working with twrp.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Gysper:
Hey thanks for updating the N6 to the latest version of lineage. Everything is running smoothly but I only had one slight issue when the device is restated. Looks like if you have a screen lock it sometimes takes 2 or 3 tries to get it to unlock. Not a big deal but I just wanted to throw it of there.

Also had the issue with the camera app not appearing but from the Bliss forum, I rooted this with Magisk canary, installed the Google Camera App, and then installed the Kill Camera App to enable it to work.

Edit: looks like the 4/10 nightly fixes the problem with the screen lock

Is anyone who has Magisk installed passing Safetynet?

No, wait, I am passing. My real question should have been... Has anyone got google pay working? ?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] SteveYoungs:
To answer my own question...

The problem was in setting up (in my case, re-setting up) Google Pay.

The solution was simply to put Magisk into "core-only" mode.

I now have Google Pay set up and have put Magisk back into normal mode. I haven't yet tested GP in the wild, but I'll certainly report back if anything goes wrong.

Try "logcat extreme" find it on google play or any other log extracting apk
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] H@P:
Even with 12-Aug build, receiving phone calls is spotty at best when mobile network is LTE. If I set "Preferred network type" to 3G, I receive phone calls every time. This is on TMobile/US in the Pacific Northwest.

Mobile data seems fine with either setting (LTE obviously better).

This is very concerning especially since all major carriers are dumping 3G early next year. May need to drop down to LineageOS 15.x to get VoLTE back. Or, you know, upgrade my phone ?

EDIT: Just for fun, switched "Preferred network type" back to LTE, rebooted, and it's been receiving calls just fine. Hmmm... It does drop down automatically to 3G when receiving the call, so VoLTE will still be required come January, but at least it doesn't completely ignore the call for now.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] wrsg:
Yeah I even tried to switch to 4G/LTE (before this, I had it set to only use 3G) but that doesn't look like it made any difference, still having trouble connecting to the mobile network.

Is there any known method with LineageOS to reset only the mobile settings to default? I'm hoping it might put things back to normal.

I might have to factory reset it but at this point I doubt it will make a difference. Otherwise its RIP in pizza for the loyal little Bladerunner phone, lasted me all the way from early 2015 so that's about 5 1/2 years, easily the best usage time for any phone I've owned.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] maddog3030:
Have you tried changing setting under *#*# 4636#*#* > " phone info"? 3 dots upper right.... band select set to "Auto"

Google Fi ?

Anyone have experience using this ROM (17.1) with Google Fi? I've been at it for almost the whole day now. Using the ARM 10.0 Nano GAPPS, using the lineage recovery, flashed the newest bootloader and radio, sideloaded ROM and GAPPS. My sim card is recognized and it shows LTE, but the Google Fi app says "Unfortunately, your Google Fi service can't be activated right now," with an error code T078. Fi support is looking into it, but I'm frustrated and wondering if this build doesn't support Fi?

Thanks,

Steve
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] githyanki:
Sorry Steve,

No, it does not. Think it was 15.1 that was the last version that supported Fi and volte.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] maddog3030:
I've gone through the same thing myself if Google fi sees you have Google voice or hangouts or some other phone apparatus or number it gets confused if you do have a second number try uninstalling all then registering with Google fi first then putting it all back.

That's the exact same error message I was getting and it was three calls in about six hours worth of tech support from Google fi to figure it out.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] stev067:
Thanks guys. Wish I asked yesterday before I got started. Got everything set up fine on 15.1, just in time to ship off my sold Pixel 3 XL before it depreciates too much. Just falling back on the N6 for a while, in anticipation of the Pixel 5. Still a great phone, but I am missing the fingerprint scanner.

Anyone else having trouble when going from WiFi to Mobile Data? If I am on my home or office Wifi, and then head outside, I have to go to airplane mode and or disable WiFi before I can use Mobile Data. Seems to have gotten more problematic recently.

[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] hhrokarvi:
Nothing on my side with battery drain. Should be something on your side.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dvdram:
At least there's two of us. ;)

I downgraded to September, 9th again and tomorrow I will keep an eye on the battery usage.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] McMannes:
Yes last update have a little bad performance for battery former update was very well
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] vanontom:
Very similar thing just happened to me. Bootloop, after many minutes trying to load OS, goes to Lineage Recovery and states something like "data may be corrupt". Pressing any button restarts the bootloop.

Details: I simply used the LOS built-in updater (build 2020-09-16 I believe). That's about it. Downloaded fine, no signs of problems beforehand. Very surprised it failed so spectacularly.

More: Installed LOS 17.1 and LOS Recovery beautifully in June (plus Magisk and GApps). Had been running well, no obvious problems.

Questions: Is there some known conflict (perhaps with Magisk) or something? Known problems with LOS updater or recovery? Any recommended or easy way to fix this update failure if it happens again?

Update: Got it partially working (only after flashing old 2020-06 build). But there are problems (Camera missing, etc). No bueno. (Seems like GApps problem.)

Update V2: Avoiding LOS 2020-09-16, and LOS Recovery, and Magisk for now. (Even fresh install had problems; keyboard missing, etc.) Solution: Clean installed 2020-09-02, with TWRP, and OpenGApps (smaller config). In future, manual updates in recovery only. Not sure of exact cause, but LOS updater definitely failed me, either way. Tips: Only update when needed. "If it ain't broke, don't fix it." Also: Thanks maddog3030 for catching that and sharing possible cause, interesting.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] maddog3030:
Check the gerrit merge # 280960 it might be the fix to your problem ...

https://review.lineageos.org/280960
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Elektroschmock:
I tried it on 2 Nexus 6 devices and wasn't able to reproduce it.

Some days ago I had a problem with the current Google Music app, as I had some Google Analytics Domains blocked on my PiHole.

That lead to Google Music making 200 connection retries per second.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dvdram:
I've been watching battery usage for two days now, and it's back to normal.

Of course, it could be a big coincidence, but neither did I install any new app, nor did I remove any app after I flashed the nightly of September, 23rd, and I don't use Google Music. So, the only changes to my phone could only be made by updates to apps that were present before the 23rd.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Elektroschmock:
It was just an example for a higher battery consumtion which started suddenly by an update of an app.

I believe you, that you see the drain you mentioned ... I just wasn't able to reproduce it.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Elektroschmock:
[MENTION=5926898]dvdram[/MENTION]

How high is the percentage of the drain you are seeing?

Is it in standby or which usecase?
