RE: Call for testing: Google/Huawei Nexus 6P (angler) owners
@potet You also totally called it on the libertine container. That is now working perfectly after I removed the old container and created a new one.

RE: Call for testing: Google/Huawei Nexus 6P (angler) owners
@potet I suspect you're right about number 3. Thanks for that. I'm just getting into the community and still learning a lot about UBPorts.
Regarding the heat gun, yeah, I'd get one. With the extra heat, you can easily remove the glass at the top, and the plastic on the bottom with an exacto knife, without breaking the plastic or the glass. Or, at least, I was able to. Most people seem to break them when trying to remove them with a hair dryer. You'll also probably want one of those two suction cups on a levered handle tool, as well.
I've done an Nexus 6p without those, and it was just painful. I have a life philosophy of just buying a specialized tool when I need one, and never throwing tools away, and it has over time made my life a lot easier.
Key thing to take note of though, there are two strips of adhesive that are holding tight to the battery, and in between them is the display cable. It is easy to go too far and cut the cable if you try to hurry. Take your time, and be patient, don't go too far on either side, and use a playing card to try to cut through the adhesive slowly, and you'll be fine.

RE: Call for testing: Google/Huawei Nexus 6P (angler) owners
I'm just posting again with an update to other issues I've noticed with the 6P vs the Oneplus One.
- Bluetooth doesn't work.
- The lowest light setting is like a blinding torch in the dark at night
- Some web apps don't work that do work in in the OPO. I suspect this is a 64 vs 32 bit issue, but don't understand why that would occur in a webapp. Windy is a example of this. Interestingly enough, using webber to create a webapp works fine.
- I'm able to install a libertine container, but installing any app fails in a weird way that I don't really feel like typing up as I suspect this may be a known issue I just couldn't find when googling. I also suspect 64/32 bit architecture issue here, as well.
Previously reported observations that are still in effect:
- Wifi needs to be turned off/on again after locking
unrelated: The battery life after replacing the battery is fucking insane. For everyone complaining about that, I cannot recommend how much better it is enough. Get a heat gun, watch a youtube tutorial on how to do it, and get it done. It is so worth it.
This port is getting really good, though, thanks so much!

RE: Call for testing: Google/Huawei Nexus 6P (angler) owners
Just replaced the battery on my N6P yesterday. Previously, the phone was just sitting unused in my closet until I saw this release. Had some problems with random shutdowns, but that was due to the battery being unable to sustain voltage under high load. With the battery replaced, no random shutdowns, and battery life is incredible.
The new battery cost only $10, but I definitely needed a heat gun to get the adhesive off of the glass and plastic panel. The battery took just time, and a plastic spudger, and 2 playing cards.
Best ten bucks I've spent.Thanks so much for your work on this. I'm on the dev channel and noticed several things:
- wifi won't reconnect after suspending until I turn wifi on-off again.
- The anbox thing where no other app other than the defaults will run.
Thanks again!
