[Q] Porting Oxygen OS to Nexus 6P - Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Would it be possible to port Oxygen OS to the Nexus 6P?

This is a good question.
I was going to ask this also.
I am very interessted to see Oygen OS on 6P. The latest OS looks very good!

2 questions
#1- Why would you want to?
#2- What is missing in stock that OxygenOS has that you want that you can't get with Xposed or one of the 20+ custom ROMs?

Oxygen OS is buggy and there is nothing that appealing which makes it superior to any other custom rom out there for nexus 6p

Not really. "Smoothness" is usually a very controversial topic because of how human psychology works, and you can't compare especially since there are a lot of other factors involved like the SoC, RAM, background apps etc. If you're comparing OxygenOS on the OnePlus 3 to stock on the Nexus 6P then I'm afraid you can't really make an objective decision because the OnePlus 3 has a 1080p screen along with a more powerful SoC. As far as the OnePlus 2 goes, based on personal experience it's not as good as stock on the 6P, but again my experience isn't something anyone can bank on due to above factors.

i doubt it will get alot of support being Proprietary software. i recall it wont be open source in 2015, just the sources for hardware.
like htc sence and touchiz you best buy the phone if you want it.

If you like stock then why flash a custom ROM? If you don't like the added functionality that custom ROMs bring then there's no point using them. Use stock rooted and be happy, but don't ask (or, by the tone of your post, demand) devs to create ROMs for you which no one else will use.

That's what all custom ROMs are for the N4, since it runs pure Android. I honestly don't understand what you're trying to say.

Because aosp based rom are full of bugs, issues, force close and unstable ? making my n4 lagging without reason where stock doesn't have ?
But I somehow want an enhanced stock rom I don't know why.
Well maybe I could miss pie control which is the only thing that is useful in a n4 custom rom.

Dunno what you're taking about but I've experienced no lag on my N4 with stock or custom ROMs. I haven't come across a ROM which has any serious bugs or stability issues on the N4. Also, PIE is the only useful feature in your opinion. There are so many other useful features available IMO.

That makes no sense. There are no buggy roms on nexus devices. They're stable because nexus are aosp devices.

Haven't tried CM with my 6P since I read that it's buggy and has issues with bluetooth.
Been running PN exclusively for months and never have any problems with it. It just works and the PN thread is very active.

Both are very nice rom bases.
Some people like cm but some like aosp (pure nexus).
Stock rom is always boring and have no features.
Flash 2-3 roms and check their features...
Almost all roms are stable but difference is features...
I like Dirty Unicorn... It's aosp based with cyanogen theme engine + a hell lot of features...
Im using Pure Nexus at the moment, but i want to try something else.
Years ago i only used CM but with that whole new Microsoft, Cortana **** i dont know.
I like Pure Nexus (and AOSP in general) better because it's still stock Android with additional features. It is boring compared to CM and CM based ROMS but that is what also makes AOSP based ROMs less buggy. While CM goes in the opposite direction. If you want a ROM that you can customize down to the littlest detail, go with CM. Just be aware of the Bluetooth bug found in every CM based ROM.

Benzo Rom is really good, I been running it for about a month and it's stable as. As for Cortana its actually pretty good, I've been using 'her' a lot in the Xbox Preview Program and it's actually incredible, Xbox is actually the perfect platform for 'her'
I have used CM12/13 on my Nexus 5 since the last 2 years and have loved every minute of the Cyanogen experience.
Recently got the Nexus 6p. Unlocked and rooted it the same day. Used CM13 on it for a week and found that my phone was randomly restarting. Used Resurrection Remix since i was not satisfied with CM13. Loved the level of customization RR offers, but was still experience random reboots along with other bugs. Have been using Pure Nexus since 3 days now and am glad to note that the random reboot issue seems to have been resolved. Although PN does not offer the level of customization that comes with CM/RR ROMs, it does offer the overall stability and amazing battery life. Which for me is a priority.
It may just be me but, I can't use CM. Every time I install a CM based ROM on my phone I get noticeably worse signal. Instead of having 4G where I am, I will have 3G. The moment I switch back to an AOSP based ROM (DU, Pure Nexus) I go back to getting normal signal. I can't say its CMS fault because I never really read up on CM causing this issue for anyone else so its purely anecdotal.

CM is caf based where it gets updates from Qualcomm directly which is why your signal bars look lower. That is your actual signal unlike aosp ROMs which aren't accurate.

What makes your kernel better than already excisting kernels.
will it be a LOS or OOS kernel?
Can't wait for this! Blackbird on my HTC One M8 was the best!

Good news on Android O for 3/3T

If it was up to me, just give us your camera app as a complete apk with all needed blobs included like google does it for Nexus/Pixel.
That would be good news.
Android O has to be expected from this device, anything less would be a shame (looking at the op2...)!

I wont agree. If you see AOSPA are the first custom rom which adds not only new features but improves core stuff as well. The camera and new post processing algorithm for example is better than OOS which is a huge step also the color engine though in its infancy is very good and is building on top of OOS theme engine. They have also fixed the voice call drain using custom firmware. So there are things they have done right and improved stuff. So I guess AOSPA has started right. If they can just continue making solid improvements its would be a fantastic idea.

OOS color theme is just enough for me,
Voice call is fixed in today's beta 8,
Dunno about camera we need more proof and test...
Anyway,i was a big fun of AOSPA in the past so let's wait and see,maybe i'll give it a try when OnePlus drop support for the 3T(if they don't drop the support and die again)

Improved camera quality is a big boast. I don't think they'd do it if they couldn't back it up. It's been sitting on my internal storage waiting to be flashed. I think I'm going to back up tonight and flash my first custom rom tomorrow. That's really and truly a testament to OxygenOS as well as Paranoid Android.
Is it true that Android O would have native substratum theme enabled, thereby negating the need for rooting the phone? Can someone confirm?

Yes let's hope so. My intentions was to know whether this would be available on stock rom's or just custom rom's. I think Oxygen OS is above par as compared to the best smartphones out there when it comes to stock rom so this would be a stellar addition as and when it happens, or lets say if it happens.

Oreo 8.0 Custom ROM's popping up everywhere

As I scroll through everyday threads here on XDA I keep getting amazed how fast the developers are building Shamu ROM's with Google's latest and greatest Oreo 8.0.
So far I have used only SiXROM, versions 1.1 and 1.2 and it has been very good, especially the 1.2 version, which now looks more polished. Force closes are almost entirely gone now (it random rebooted just once, don't know why), and to my knowledge with only the NFC not working at all.
I've seen also (and getting very good reviews by users) that there are a couple of more Oreo ROM's like crDroid (version Beta 2 - 18-Sep-17) and Republic of Madness ROM Oreo (21-Sep-17) with a lot more coming, like PureNexus (I guess), LOS and Dirty Unicorns. And although we are still at early stages, these builds are almost ready to be used day-to-day.
Anyway, just wanted to know from you if you had a chance to use any of these Oreo ROM's for the N6 and what you think of them thus far.
Cheers and keep on flashing.
I'm waiting for PureNexus

I don’t like these kind of polls because then we’re trying to favor one rom over another. We shouldn’t judge a rom based on feedback, because every rom is different. It’s like everyone will have a different opinion.
But anyways, I’m waiting for a stable build, I know these devs are doing good work but patience is a virtue.

Using Nexus 5x since my Nexue 6 is cracked. I can say that although Nexus 5x is officially supported and "more stable" Shamu runs Oreo like a champ and is actually faster. My Nexue 5x is constantly freezing up. Can't wait until my girlfriend's iPhone gets returned so I can enjoy Pixel XL.

What About GApps?
So far I've only tried S.i.X's first Oreo build, it was looking pretty good then and it's likely gotten jmuch better. Not only waiting for more stable build, but I want GApps, I use OpenGApps. My shamu is my daily driver, I travel a lot, and I use it a lot so it's gotta be stable. Though I usually keep a copy of a good stable release build at all times in case I run into trouble and need to get things working fast. Most of my favorite devs are building Oreo for shamu so I'm sure there'll be some cool stuff happening in the next month or two. I can wait. I think Carbon ROM is building Oreo too and I'm also curious to see what OctOS might do.
