Project Fi Compatible?

Hey there, I'm heading from the USA to Canada in early December. Wanted to know if this has compatibility with Project Fi?

Restore your backup you made before you installed it, or, dirty flash the rom again.

I thought pixel mod was prebaked into the rom?

It is, that previous remedy is incorrect. This ROM isn't compatible with Substratum at this time because of the Baked-In PixelMod but it still functions beautifully and the stock appearance is growing on me.

Enjoying this because it works!
Was on a different ROM but too many bugs.

Can you include led charge indicator?


Thanks.

Can we dirty flash the 15.1 over the 15.01 version? If so what do we wipe and what not to wipe

It was suggested to do a clean flash for the 15.10 due to the new launcher!

I haven't used this ROM in a while because I upgraded to a Pixel XL which I never liked and then to a One Plus 5 which has great hardware specs and easily the worst build quality of any phone I have ever owned. Since my OP5 is in RMA I had to pull my 6P out of retirement. I want to thank the dev for making such a fast and smooth ROM. I'm not even in a huge hurry to get my OP5 back after flashing Cortex Oreo. :good:

Project Fi works just fine with this ROM.. No issues.

Everthing fine here no issues. Using custom ringtone too

Not using custom ringtones, but all working great here with ROM ringtones/media storage.

Running Cortex with ElementalEx Governor. I've tried Glass Fish, Glass Canon and Hawktail and I'm currently using Dark Spice. What profile would people recommend for smoothest performance? I'm more concerned with smooth performance for normal phone operations (I don't do anything CPU intensive) than in maximizing battery life.

The short answer is no do not install the security update.

You probably got the notification because Cortex is a stock based ROM. But it isn't stock Oreo. Cortex has been modified and is a custom ROM so unless the dev says otherwise you should not install OTA updates. As far as I know the dev needs to create a new build of Cortex that incorporates the security update for it to be compatible with the ROM.

Is always been said not to update when your on a custom stock ROM. I'm sure the dev will add this update soon.

 

[stappernn]

also the update will fail since you probably have a custom recovery

I'm pretty sure there is an issue with my TMO nexus 6p and the OCT 15th version of this ROM. Did a full wipe to Stock October Security Release (proper bootloader, vendor, and radio), flashed twrp, and then ran the install zip. I did this twice and each time, android does not detect a sim card. However, on stock bootup, the sim card is just fine (which is needed to restore backup from cloud since i have two factor authentication enabled).

I have MintSim which uses TMO as the carrier and the latest version of Cortex recognizes my SIM fine and works perfectly on the network . You might want to try powering down your Nexus 6P, removing the SIM card and then booting up into Cortex with no SIM inserted. Then power down again, insert the SIM and power up again. I've had that help in the past if an Android phone wasn't recognizing that a SIM was inserted. If that doesn't work I would go into the network settings and see if anything looks strange. I'm not sure why a TMO SIM card would specifically be incompatible with any ROM if other SIM cards work fine.

There is multiple posts on how to fix the no sim error. Flashing stock 8.0, formating user data, turning off encryption, turning off pin lock before flashing. I believe wiping and flashing stock Android 8 first is the best solution.
