OmniROM : Nexus 6P (angler) PRE-NIGHTLIES While we look to iron out the last few creases this thread contains a pre nightly ROM which will be updated as needed until we get to a full blown nightly buildwitha new build each day available.

About OmniROM
See what OmniROM is all about: http://omnirom.org/about/

What do you need?
OmniROM is a custom ROM and to be able to install a custom ROM, you will need to unlock your bootloader. You can unlock your bootloader using the guide at the Nexus line thread as compiled by Heisenberg, found here:- http://xdaforums.com/nexus-6p/general/guides-how-to-guides-beginners-t3206928.

Please be advised that you may lose your warranty.

To be able to install OmniROM you will need TWRP recovery v.2.8.7.2 from Dees_Troy and the Team Win folk found here:-
http://xdaforums.com/nexus-6p/orig-development/recovery-twrp-2-8-7-0-touch-recovery-t3234976

You need to have TWRP installed
You can optionally flash any flashable GApps package for varied amounts of google android stock service on a fresh device.
(I would suggest the appropriate size and content package from http://opengapps.org/) (PS ENSURE to download ARM64 bit gapps packages for angler)

It is advised when installing TWRP to make a FULL image backup of your stock device and without having set your system partition to read write status. this gives you a safe fall back for should you have any issues flashing any rom from this source after new updates or changes.

The ROM:

How to install

Flash the TWRP 2.8.7.2 (or higher)
Reboot into recovery
Do a full wipe (if coming from another rom base that uses encrpytion on /data remember to format data partition using advanced wipe in TWRP once you have installed the rom.)

Reboot the awesomeness and enjoy OmniROM

Factory wiped, then manually went in and wiped everything except system. I'm on build mmb29m

Yes sorry I did not edit the wipe section correctly
In actual fact you need to actually format the data partition if your coming from stock and with any kind of fingerprint scanning or security codes in place.

To format the data partition, in WRP go to "wipe" then "advanced" then in the botom right corner there should be a format data partition button. The stock aosp ROM has encryption on /data by default which it seems is causing a few issues here and there. things are being looked at though. any problems feel free to feedback into the thread.

Great to see this rom for the 6P! Cool

YES very nice, very light stock it took us a little while to ensure camera was working correctly after latest source update from android. Once it was golden we set to work having this post up :)

Enjoy and Merry Xmas

Merry Christmas to all, even I am having problems starting with the screen locked google.apparently it must also do wipe data?

what rom were you on before install. If the previous rom encrypted /data by default (which seems to be common) then data needs to be formatted using advanced wipe menu. else the data partition is still encrypted and the new rom cannot access to write to it

Not booting here, too. Wiped Cache, system, data and dalvik twice. Flashed omni, open gapps: arm64 stock, supersu. Hangs on Google screen.

Code:
adb devices && adb logcat
List of devices attached
5VT7N15A26001873	unauthorized

- waiting for device -

in TWRP go WIPE>Advanced> hit format data button

boot

    Oh hai

    I'd like to point out that the Omni staff is still looking for an active maintainer for the Nexus 6P - the main thing preventing official builds.

    I wanna give a shoutout to Jake Whatley aka jakew02. He did an amazing job at supporting me through some serious stuff for this build.
    -merged in the latest AOSP changes
    -fixed the distorted first sound after booting up (fix taken from CM)
    -added Project Fi stuff (i can't test this as it is unavailable here, so please report back if everything is working)
    -ofc, latest Omni changes in general

    As always flash the latest vendor.img (MHC19Q)

    Hey guys sorry to of been radio silent for a while but been busy with christmas and UNI work. we have fixed many issues internally on omni with regards to things like camera apps working and any encryption issues that we were facing previously
    as it stands we are slowly working towards a new twrp build for angler, along with getting the latest updates and ui tweaks merged into angler omni. once the large portion of work is done i will release a new test build but BE WARNED it is going to be a test build, there may be issues and we will only know once we get the next stablish build to boot and so on.

    Will update in a few days or sometime at the weekend


    happy new year.

    Here's a new build.
    This is the last build i can provide for about the next three months, as i will have no access to my computer for that time.

    https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B1swN4DCfhVwTTZuVlVzeV9RNkU/view?usp=docslist_api

    Hope someone has been found as a maintainer, or at least someone who keeps our device up to date, by the time i come back. If you're interested please hop on to omni's irc.
