If using a custom ROM, I have to agree, root is probably not needed but if you use G Pay (Android Pay) on a custom ROM, then root and Magisk hide is needed.

Question:

Why OPM3 and not OPM5?

Answer:

OPM5 is carrier specific release.

*Just answering a question that they asked me and wanted to make it clear here too...
[Android Builders Collective] vlaf:
OPM5 is carrier specific.

I need some help to update the sources to the march security update to be ready to build a new ABCrom for taimen.

My manifest is abc base with some device specific (taimen) from [MENTION=4939386]Surge1223[/MENTION]

Most oft he work has already be done by [MENTION=2095315]ezio84[/MENTION]

To my understanding i have to update the source in

-	abc_build

-	abc_frameworks_av

-	abc_frameworks_base

-	abc_packages_apps_Settings

-	abc_vendor_nexus

-	android_device_google_wahoo

-	android_device_google_taimen

-	android_kernel_google_wahoo

As far as i know i have to merge tag „android-8.1.0 r15“ to (abc_build, abc_frameworks_av, abc_frameworks_base, abc_packages_apps_Settings, android_device_google_wahoo).

Update taimen fingerprint to newest OPM (android_device_google_taimen)

Merge the kernel tag in android_kernel_google_wahoo to android-8.1.0 r0.31.

Is there an expert willing to guide me on how to merge a new tag????

A concrete example would be wunderful.

I do have some basic understanding on how to build a rom and how to use repo and/or git. And i'm willing to learn!

Thanks in advance!
[Android Builders Collective] ezio84:
This is the list of all aosp remotes: https://android.googlesource.com/.

Let's suppose you want to update your frameworks/base fork. Google's path is this: https://android.googlesource.com/platform/frameworks/base/

Go into your local "base" tree, then:

git add remote aosp https://android.googlesource.com/platform/frameworks/base/

Then:

git fetch aosp && git merge android-8.1.0_r15

Git will pull the new code if available and create a merge commit. You'll have to fix conflicts if any (then git add -A and git commit like a normal commit).

Once done, just push back to your github remote.

Has there been any major changes or can i go from 20180103 to latest by dirty flash?
[Android Builders Collective] davall:
Thanks for your support [MENTION=2095315]ezio84[/MENTION]!

My new ABCrom for taimen build with March security is done and operates fine.

I integrated the taimen kernel from [MENTION=6842057]nathanchance[/MENTION] and asked him via pm for his permission to post my build with his integrated kernel.

In the meantime i will upload the rom to my gdrive...

The volume up skip track doesn't work on Sirius app like it did when I was on 7.1. Any way I can make that happen myself? Works with my other music apps.

It's app related, so nope.
[Android Builders Collective] nathanchance:

[Android Builders Collective] davall:
So here we go. ABCrom for taimen with March security update.

Rom: https://drive.google.com/open?id=159q9ieHutisrG051HXgM5r2BMZ8mHEVq

MD5: https://drive.google.com/open?id=15Xmj3bcJyLTy15H5TGhi4_1Ykv6g8Xfw

Update procedure:

1.	disable lockscreen security if enabled

2.	reboot to bootloader and fastboot flash vendor_a vendor.img

3.	reboot to twrp recovery (previously installed)

4.	backup in twrp to be safe

5.	wipe only dalvik cache

6.	flash ABCrom.zip AND twrp.zip

7.	reboot to twrp (puts you in new active slot)

8.	flash disable verity.zip <--- don't forget this step, otherwise you have to do a flashall.bat without -w and restore your previously done backup

9.	Reboot system and enjoy updated ABCrom,

10.	if Smartphone goes to bootloader (i had this once), repeat from step 3.

11.	flash Magisk if desired afterwards

[Android Builders Collective] damngood98:
so if someone who's successfully flashed ABC to taimen could kindly PM me, I'm having way more trouble getting this to boot then I expected

I've flashed stock Mar img (minus -w), booted into twrp img via fastboot, wiped data & cache/dalvik, installed ABC, installed twrp zip, rebooted twrp, flashed disable verity zip and i can only boot into fastboot no matter how many times I start over....this is my first attempt at flashing any Pixel so I'm hopeful I've just overlooked something but help would be appreciated, thank you
[Android Builders Collective] endomatic:
Same boat here. No luck flashing taimen ABC exactly as you. I was getting the red "your device is corrupted" warning too. Flashed stock with full wipe to get it to boot.
[Android Builders Collective] damngood98:
corrupt device sounds like you missed the disable verity zip....but just so i'm clear, did you get ABC to boot after flashing stock or simply got stock to boot?
[Android Builders Collective] endomatic:
Yes I think I spaced the disable verity zip, my wife always finds the right time to talk to me. I didn't try to boot ABC after stock booted because it was Sunday and I thought I would try again after the March security update. Thanks for the ABC taimen build though, it has been my favorite rom through all it's iterations over the years. Great rom, great thread.

Still no ABC or Beltz with March security patch for shamu. Hope [MENTION=5379942]setiawanjimmy[/MENTION] just doesn't have the time - yet, since I really like his work and I hope he won't abandon my beloved shamu :P - to work on this or share his work! Patiently waiting for potential update!

Thank you all for your amazing work.
[Android Builders Collective] davall:
Are you guys following these steps?

1. unroot

2. enable usb debugging

3. disable security (pin etc.)

4. flashall.bat without -w to preserve /sdcard

5. reboot bootloader

6. fastboot boot trwp.img

7. factory reset in TWRP

8. flash ABCrom.zip AND twrp.zip

9. reboot to twrp (puts you in new active slot)

10. flash disable verity.zip

11. reboot to ABC and enjoy

12. flash custom kernel and Magisk 16.0 afterwards

You don't have to care which slot you are on.

I've tested these steps many times on my smartphone going from stock to my ABCrom build and had no problems to flash ABCrom on taimen.

Only after flashing Magisk sometimes i got stuck on the white google screen. Pressing the Power key for about 10 seconds and let it boot again solves this issue.

Forgot to mention that the custom kernel from [MENTION=6842057]nathanchance[/MENTION] is already integrated in my last March build.
[Android Builders Collective] samteeee:
All working on my end, really smooth and great battery.

I followed the OP installation suggestion and had no problem booting to android!

Can I flash franco kernel over it?
[Android Builders Collective] miksontije:
Every build is official ABC,they made it from ezio source i think. For nexus 5x there are 3 versions. mohican16 (i think same as ezio build),topeos(he made some modifications) and now buffal0b1ll(same as mohican16 with different kernel)
[Android Builders Collective] buffal0b1ll:
As official as it gets. Ezio84 puts up the source and encourages all to build. Mohican16 maintains device trees for Bullhead. Everybody shares ingrdients and likes to cook here. "Android Builders Collective", get it? If you've been around here a while you'll recognize me as the "official" guy that maintained ABCrom for Nexus 7 (2013), Nexus 9, and the guy that sometimes posted his personal Nexus 5x and Nexus 6 builds.

I don't know. Can you? They're no reason you shouldn't be able to. I don't follow what Franco is doing on Bullhead, but if it's got a March update, then knock yourself out and flash away.
[Android Builders Collective] vasolini:
Be patient, my friend. He usually does the Beltz rom first, because I believe that is the one he uses, and then out of the goodness of his heart, he does the ABC rom for Shamu. He doesn't personally run that one, I don't think, but he builds it for those of us that like it. And again, he does this in his free time, so whenever he has time, he'll do it. Good things come to those who wait! :cool:
[Android Builders Collective] damngood98:
yep, to the letter...execpt after 10 it'll go right to bootloader everytime, never had the chance to flash Magisk.....to be clear, factory reset in twrp is simply wiping data & dalvik/cache? I was already on Mar security so my vendor was fine I'd assumed....I did try another rom last night and that went without issue.
[Android Builders Collective] jerethi:
Truly excited to see this! And, as you may have guessed from my earlier posts, I'm liking the LTE in the status bar. [emoji106]
[Android Builders Collective] davall:
I'm sorry. When you have time, can you do the following steps.

1. flashall.bat without -w

2. reboot bootloader

3. fastboot boot trwp.img

4. factory reset in TWRP

5. flash ABCrom.zip AND twrp.zip

6. reboot to twrp (puts you in new active slot)

7. flash disable verity.zip

8. reboot system from within twrp

9. when it goes to the bootloader boot from bootloader into twrp again and repeat from 5. with flash ABCrom.zip AND twrp.zip -> 6./7./8.

Please report back and thanks for your support.
[Android Builders Collective] Seyaru:
Im try to build too but dont boot :( thanks for sharing work really fine.
[Android Builders Collective] damngood98:
it'll be tonight before i can try again...but I can say i did this over and over again for roughly 3 hours last night, and even flashall maybe 5 times
[Android Builders Collective] davall:
I'm really sorry.

I only know that [MENTION=2412617]samteeee[/MENTION] got it also installed without a problem.

Maybe others who successfully installed ABC on taimen have an idea?

[MENTION=4831195]buffal0b1ll[/MENTION] My second update on ABC and its great! Had a question about BT. When BT turns on in the car it always asks me what music app i want to select. I dont want to select any and i didnt see any place where i can turn off that option. can you point me in the right direction? Thanks!
[Android Builders Collective] igylan:
If that's what the dev wants then thats what we get. There is no right or wrong here. Guess we just have to be grateful for great devs like ezio still building for our device.
[Android Builders Collective] buffal0b1ll:
I have no idea. My phone doesn't ask me what music app I want to select when I connect to a BT device. 3 cars, 3 headsets, 2 speakers, none of them ever cause this behavior. Are you talking about a feature your car stereo has? Maybe an interactive car stereo app you installed on your phone is doing this? Maybe some Android Auto f***ery going on (your car has this?). I can't tell from your post whether it's something that your car is asking or if it's popping up on your phone.
[Android Builders Collective] jerethi:
Maybe check Volume and Media in the ABC menu? There's an option to auto launch a music app.
[Android Builders Collective] octavioromo:
Thanks for the responses! Sorry I didn't give enough info, it is on my phone that I'm being promoted. I've got a regular Alpine radio with BT for calls and music, but it would normally just "silently" connect. I think that option in the ABC menu might just be it! I'll try to disable it and I'll report back, thanks guys!

Update! Looks like that was the option I was looking for!

[MENTION=4831195]buffal0b1ll[/MENTION]

Is there a Best place for suggested features? Would love to have the status bar brightness slider. But overall this ROM is great! Thanks for all the hard work!
[Android Builders Collective] reference2myself:
Hey guys, just switched to abc from pure nexus on my Nexus 6p and I can't get substratum to work right. Does this rom have oms commits? I assumed it would just work like on my last rom, is there an extra step to make it work or something? Substratum acts like everything has gone smooth but everything looks the same still. Thanks!

Edit:. Nevermind, it magically started working. Weird.
[Android Builders Collective] buffal0b1ll:
It's not about OMS commits (which AFAIK still aren't finalized yet so they're not in the ROM yet). It's about a Google March security update that keeps untrusted third party overlays from being activated at run time. It's been patched with a revert in ABC source and subs should again work as expected in next release.

Meanwhile, here's the workaround...

1. "Build and Enable" the overlays (They'll compile fine. You can check and see that they show up as apps if you look in Settings>Applications, but they won't Enable or show in Substratum Manager yet because only trusted overlays can apply at run time now)

2. Reboot

3. Now go to Substratum Manager and select the overlays you built before rebooting and "Enable" them

4. Repeat 1 - 3 if you have more overlays you need to Build and Enable
[Android Builders Collective] reference2myself:
Thanks, that's exactly what I did to make it work, rebooted and then reenabled everything.
[Android Builders Collective] buffal0b1ll:
Glad you sorted the BT music player thing out.

Best place to suggest features is right here. I can't speak for ezio, but status bar is sacred. Nope center clock, nope brightness slider. It's busy enough already. I'd nuke double tap status bar to sleep if I had my druthers.
[Android Builders Collective] NHNXDA:
Hi bud, does your ROM include volume button wake?
[Android Builders Collective] buffal0b1ll:
Nope. There's an app for that tho. Button Mapper.
[Android Builders Collective] ezio84:
Hell nope! :D

Mother nature gave us also the right side, you have the alternative then :P

I need help please from anyone....

I havent had any time to flash abc until this morning, so trying for the first time. I following the instructions from this post, but am intsalling the march abc build. I was previously on the Feb stock image so installed the stock march release first. After doing the factory reset in twrp, I was able to install ABC & twrp, then rebooted to twrp, flashed the disable verity zip. After rebooting, I immediately get the "your device is corrupt. it cant be trusted and may not work properly." When I hit the power button to continue, I get the message that the bootloader is unlocked. When I push the power button to continue, it just hangs on the white google splash screen.

I can get back into the bootloader, when I try the flash all (including the -w) to start over, this comes up in the cmd window:

"target didn't report max-download-size

On ABC is there a way to disable 270° auto rotation on 6p? It causes an audio pause when it rotates that way as it switches the stereo speaker left/right orientation and is extremely obnoxious. It happens all the time just trying to set the phone down and having it flip that way.
[Android Builders Collective] Jeffro64:
Hey all....New to these ROMs but have heard great things! I have the Nexus 6 and plan on trying both flavors, But was wondering what the difference is between ABC & Beltz?

[MENTION=7157050]mohican16[/MENTION] [MENTION=4831195]buffal0b1ll[/MENTION] Awesome work on this 5x ROM, could I suggest a pin scramble, .........and maybe a toggle to use the brightness control by sliding across the status bar? Its been a great feature on other roms as i can easily get to it while in the car, kinda dont have to look at where the option is at. Thanks so much! If there is any I can help please let me know!
[Android Builders Collective] NLBeev:
Link: go to Androidfilethost.com and search for Beltz or ABC_rom.

The same Dev, and rather different. You may call Beltz a lite version when it is combined with Pico Gapps.
[Android Builders Collective] AMKhatri:
Please advise if this is stable for use a daily driver?
[Android Builders Collective] davall:
Don't think so, cause custom roms are AOSP based.

Do you know a custom 8.1 rom for taimen with these stock features?
[Android Builders Collective] Jeffro64:
Thanks for the link and the information! I will give them both a try.
[Android Builders Collective] buffal0b1ll:
All these requests were shot down long ago. I know it's not the easiest thread to search, but they've each gotten the nope before. This ROM has been mature for months. So the best assumption to make usually, is that if other ROMs have the feature you want already then ABC already shot it down, especially if it has anything to do with status bar or security.

Referring to the ROM by kantjer. Post #10.

[Android Builders Collective] buffal0b1ll:
The Beltz features list can be read in this post https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=75640751&postcount=20866

The closest thing ABC has to a features list is this https://github.com/ezio84/scripts/blob/o2/My_mods-commits_and_tips/Commits-list-with-links WIP.txt

You can't go wrong with either ROM.

As for 32 bit Gapps, I'd give these GZOSP ones a go https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=235144 if I were you. Open Gapps pico ay be a good choice too, but I'd favor the GZ ones personally.
[Android Builders Collective] buffal0b1ll:
Was stable as a daily driver the day it launched last September. Continues to be so. When coming from 7.1.2 you'll have a trouble-free transition to ABC 8.1 if you flash-all the march 8.1 nexus factory image on the way and start fresh from scratch.

Question about the WireGuard support in the kernel...Is it all baked in or is there something from their page that I will need to flash/install?
[Android Builders Collective] buffal0b1ll:
[MENTION=2343057]Jeffro64[/MENTION] Beltz features list includes Wireguard support at kernel level. I'd guess that [MENTION=5379942]setiawanjimmy[/MENTION] uses the same kernel source in his ABCrom builds, but I'll defer to him on that.

In my experience with using wireguard on kernels that support it, there's nothing else to flash. You just have to follow the phone instructions in the OP here https://xdaforums.com/android/general/guide-how-to-wireguard-android-ubuntu-t3723544
