Came from a stock rooted 10 with only TWRP and Magisk installed, was starting to notice some hiccups and slow downs in usage. Decided to clean install which I hadn't done in a while to hopefully regain some performance as well as storage. Phone feels smooth again, haven't noticed any loss of...

I get the same error on 115.2 but not after I downgrade. On a Pixel 2 XL, Anroid 9 rooted with Magisk. Pogo is hidden with Magisk hide. No custom recovery or kernel. Do have a system joystick app I haven't tried uninstalling yet. On current non-beta play services.

Finally pulled the trigger on a Panda Pixel 2 XL. Wanted to let some of the manufacturing issues get resolved, plus couldn't justify that kind of cash when my 6P was working just fine (replaced battery). However, it appears I've suffered a hardware malfunction in the 6P and the only way to...

Plus, it's the most accurate way to gauge battery capacity and health. Rather than doing a 90% charge and extrapolating from that how much a 100% charge would be, it's impossible to make an error when actually doing a 100% recharge. Accubattery says that staying between 20-80% charge is best...

Just did the battery replacement and am glad to report that my battery is back to 100% functional. I used the battery from here: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Li-ion-Internal-Battery-3450mAh-for-Huawei-Google-Nexus-6P-H1511-H1512-Tools/252482757101 As others reported, it's got the fat cable and the...

Anyone found a reliable way to use a mock location/fake GPS app with the newest march security updates? I'm holding off updating my ROM to the march version until a reliable way has been found. On reddit, one person is saying he got it working by using a fake gps app that supported running as...

Wow, this might the most informative and helpful response I've ever gotten on xda. I was most apprehensive about just getting the replacement approved, the restoring to stock part I assumed would have to happen. And while annoying to do, wasn't too difficult. However, the more I thought about...

Damn, I just found that option. I'm not sure why when I looked before I didn't find the chat option. I've been on the phone with so many different companies lately that I didn't feel like spending another hour pushing back and forth with a support rep. to hopefully get a replacment and then go...

Is that the support chat built right into the OS settings or on their site somewhere? I only ask because I'm on a ROM currently that doesn't have the chat support in the OS settings.

Guys (and gals), looking for some advice. I'm being struck with the same overheating and phone powering down around 30%. I purchased the 6P on Feb. 28th, 2016, so I'm literally 2 weeks out of warranty. I was running stock for a while, then went to the preview program. When the latest update...

I'm new to this ROM, just installed last night but loving it so far. However, I've read the FAQ and done plenty of searches but can't find if this is possible. I'm hoping to remove the weather widget on the homescreen and replace it with a widget from my preferred weather app. I've found I...

Not sure when the problem started or if I've always had it. Got my Nexus in March and as long as I can remember I've not received push notifications when phone is in doze. I've disabled battery optimization for apps such as Gmail, Untappd, Xbox smartglass, Pushbullet. I've made them high...

wifi calling? I used to check this thread daily for an update regarding T-Mobile's wifi calling after it was teased a few times. That was in May when I got my M8 and 4 months later there is still no news. I only check about once a week now so has anything happened on this front? I know quite...

I wouldn't hold your breath. I've been waiting since May for it. It's been teased a few times but nothing ever comes of it. I'm not trying to call mike out or anything, with the drop of 4.4.3 and some other things that were higher on the priority list I can understand why it's not included...

The US developer edition got the OTA about 3 weeks ago along with new firmware. This firmware is compatible with all US M8s, but I'm not certain it works with cdma devices (vzw/sprint). Since it's meant to work with multiple carriers, the firmware contains extra content not specifically for...
