          Yes guys! 5 people are here, we can start with the test. First let me add new things that work:

          • GPS
          • Mobile data (always at 2G, doesnt go to 4G immediately)
          • SMS

          I will try to set up a download for the needed image files so you can flash them.

            We will track installation progress for all of you here: https://pad.ubports.com/p/nexus-6p-alphatesting - Please set a name for your writing color on the top right, so that I know who wrote what πŸ™‚

            I made a first task for you there: Installing the right recovery.

              I just replied there with my info (I appear to be pink on my side), but where do we get the special recovery from?

                @wbrawner I added the link into the pad now πŸ™‚ If it does not work, I can send mine from home. Please use that recovery and try to go below 20% to see if it would reboot or shutdown.

                    @Flohack so I flashed the special TWRP and disabled the screen dimming so that the battery would just drain until it died. The percentage dropped to 0% and stayed there a while before the percentage just disappeared altogether. O had to leave for work but the phone still hadn't turned off by that point.

                          I am nearly done with preparations and uploading. But I found we can only use 32bit rootfs for the moment, so I am finishing this now. Should be ready in 20mins...

                                @kodaxx Oh I have to ask, but I see those dependencies:

                                qemu-user-static
                                qemu-system-arm
                                e2fsprogs
                                simg2img

                                I am not sure you will be able to have commands from those packages avaiable in OSX.

                                  @kodaxx The problem is that the images must be mounted (ext4 file system), converted from sparse to full image for the system.img etc. Those things might be specific. On the other hand, if you can build Android on Mac, maybe, then this tools could be available. Otherwise maybe you can try a virtual machine with Ubuntu?

                                    @Flohack I'm able to get the install to happen but the device doesn't boot. It gets stuck at the Google splash screen indefinitely. I put some more details in the pad. Any ideas where to go from here?

                                      @wbrawner Do you get an RNDIS connection to be able to ssh in? Anything in your hosts dmesg ? If not, let it sit for a while, then boot into recovery with VOl-UP and holding power, and then do cat /sys/fs/pstore/console_ramoops and see if thats says smth

                                        @Flohack Here's some info I posted in the pad: https://pastebin.com/fycE5rG4 https://pastebin.com/gtUsAUhg

                                        Here's the output of /sys/fs/pstore/console-ramoops: https://pastebin.com/1Htmi5iN

                                        I tried to SSH in with phablet@10.15.19.82 but I get connection refused.

                                          @Flohack I did a reinstall of LineageOS, did a factory reset from TWRP, and reinstalled UT. Now I've been able to SSH in but I'm still stuck at the Google boot logo
