[Nexus 5X Android Development] tenow1:
Camera NX is based on original google camera for Pixel and works as such just made compatible with Nexus, the closest thing you can do is cut out nexus camera from rom and put NX camera instead.

Ambient sense unfortunately hasn't been ported on nexus yet, no one sure if it's even possible. For now Shazam offers similar service https://android.gadgethacks.com/how-to/get-pixel-2s-now-playing-feature-any-android-0180398/

My method is basically clean Nexus 8.1, not Pixel firmware but with launcher and camera from Pixel2. It's faster, more stable and possible to update with official nexus roms this way.

>>	do you have pictures or video of this procedure? I'm anxious to test ...

And sorry no video

Can we convert to F2FS or we need custom kernel?!
[Nexus 5X Android Development] jugoslavpetrovic:
Anyone having weird problem with firefox apps black screen?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] tenow1:
That's a very good question. No matter what I tried it failed to boot or system complained about corrupt partition. Tried adding different kernels on different steps. Also TWRP always failed to convert cache partition to F2FS.

I'd say decrypted file system is good enough performance boost but if anyone can figure out how to convert official 8.1 to F2FS that'd be much appreciated.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] Josh:
In Nougat i used DU with some kernel(can't remember which) and it rocks great,best experience . In TWRP zaw zaw thread guys also have troubles to convert to F2fs so will see what dev tell in future builds ..

Hi guys, i install camera nx but burst mode is svanished. I tryed to reinstall the app, but nothing happened. Anyone can help me? Is happened to you too?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] qaiser:
I was one of the early adopters of Pixel ROM. Never needed to look for an alternative. It had to end some day. I switched to 8.1 as recommended by tenow1 and I am experiencing better battery and no lags. Thanks argraur for consistent wonderful ROM experience.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] Subhojit:
I installed this rom (last build) and got notification for 8.1 ota update.

Should I update it? Would it cause any problems?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] Divyam123:
Yes it will cause problems mostly bootloop.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] Agus8k:
This rom has dead?

[Nexus 5X Android Development] Danish Fayaz:
Guys can we all just be more patient. I personally visit this thread daily 4-5 times. I know we're all desperate for this. But let the developer work in peace. He's a human being, he's got a life. He's doing all of us a big favor here. We'll probably receive something around new year. Have faith. Peace...

Hey guys, could someone please do me a faver and send me a copy of thier build.prop? Some app really messed up mine! And I don't really wanna go through flashing the whole rom again just for that. I'd be grateful.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] starxeon:
This one has 25 volume steps and EIS.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] mizarddo:
Thanks a lot dude :o :svetius:
[Nexus 5X Android Development] meatwad0222:
Maybe the Creator just doesn't want to deal with people like you all day long. You are acting very entitled over something you aren't paying for. Learn your place.

And if he is done making the rom, he doesn't owe you, me, or anyone else any sort of explanation as to why. They do this in their spare time.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] siamak5561:

do you know how to do that? I create Task for that but didnt work fo me.

[Nexus 5X Android Development] itsZICE:
I installed and booted into it, however its stuck on the boot animation (The one with the "G", and the little bar underneath). What do I do?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] Divyam123:
Did you wipe data cache and dalvik cache?

Cause if you didn't than that is exactly what happens if wipeing it doesn't work than you should probably reinstall the rom.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] itsZICE:
Just found out that it had to do with the flashing of the vendor image, did it properly and it works like a charm. Thanks!

Upgrade

Hi,

I love ur ROM and am currently running version 7.1 of the Pixel 1 ROM. I wanted to know, how can I update to the Pixel 2 ROM without losing my data?

Thanks for this ROM and keep up the amazing work:good:
[Nexus 5X Android Development] fdgd1998:
If you mean internal storage and this is not encrypted, only wipe system, data, dalvik and cache. Later install the pixelrom2.

You can't dirty flash because pixelrom is based on stock and pixelrom2 on AOSP.I remember I have read that when I used to have my Nexus 5X months ago and have installed that ROM.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] nayan dee:
Hey master please ask me.... when you make Rom for android 8.1

Please..... waiting for your help
[Nexus 5X Android Development] fdgd1998:
First thing of all, don't ask for ETA. The ROM will come when it's ready, the dev do it for free.

Second thing, what problem do you have?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] nayan dee:
Nothing man the Rom is so fine.....so I asked you for a newer version...

Where does the Dev rom....send a link for me
[Nexus 5X Android Development] fdgd1998:
At the moment it seems 8.1 is in the road.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] starxeon:
How do you know this?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] fdgd1998:
Well, this is a very popular ROM, so 8.1 will arrive, is only a question of time.

I didn't confirmed, is only my thinking.:silly:

It's been also a long time without updates...
[Nexus 5X Android Development] starxeon:
Alright. He said the next version would be stock based. I wonder if hes waiting for the tools to get updated.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] pat.seven:
Sorry if I have overlooked but, does this have those notification feature where the color of the music player bar color changes depending on the album cover?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] Quinny899:
Yes, that's an AOSP Oreo feature not a pixel-specific thing
[Nexus 5X Android Development] tenow1:

2. clean everything except internal storage

5. flash kernel elemental

6. reboot

My 5X has caught the boot loop of death bug after two years of use, so I replaced it with a Moto X4. Wanted to thank the OP, argraur for a great ROM.

[Nexus 5X Android Development] ZLevente:
"Last Activity: 6th January 2018"

I do not expect it however i love this rom :(

This Rom is dead for sure. Not just this, lots of other too.

It may be related with the hw bootloop that there is hardly any new 8.1 rom.

A new developer needed for this rom.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] fdgd1998:
The process can take longer than expected. Oreo is having problems also even being stock ROMs. OEMs are even pulling the OTA updates. I suppose that if the dev couldn't continue the development he would warn us.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] jugoslavpetrovic:
[MENTION=6881528]argraur[/MENTION] is very busy. Development of this PixelRom is a bit off at the "moment". I don't know for sure when it will be continued. Please, just stay tuned and feel free to move on.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] stifmaster81:

[Nexus 5X Android Development] Josh:
Where to move ? Yes I see that argraur was pretty busy so...just ABC ROM is good alternative to Pixel ROM in my opinion and I heard that Paranoid Android should release Oreo 8.1 for Nexus 5x . DU and PN ROM dropped support.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] ThinnerMetalX:
Sorry but I don't agree. I flashed AOSP Unlegacy ROM two weeks ago on my Nexus 5 2013 based on Android 8.1. the ROM is stable and it's ready for daily use. I don't think the problem is related to Oreo
[Nexus 5X Android Development] fdgd1998:
The problem is not oreo, is all the changes thar Google has made with this new version. For the Nexus, there aren't so many problems because, you know, are from Google. I was talking from the point of view of another brands. Also developing for each device could be different, which works on the Nexus 5 might not work on the 5X.

[Nexus 5X Android Development] rp158:
[MENTION=8315442]MHS3511[/MENTION]: ROM is outdated. But for each N5X-build ROM and vendor must match. You find here a list of builds and download-links for the factory images (=monthly stock ROM version). Download the matching factory image and cut out your needed vendor.img, by unzipping 2times.

Choose in TWRP ..Install the image-option.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] MHS3511:

I tried to flash the Pixel2 ROM but I got a "Bootloop". It only shows the Google Logo and the restart it. But if I go back to TWRP and Flash back to 7.1.2 it runs again. Is this a sign, that if i flash stock (Android N) and unroot the device and after that I will update to Oreo the device will bootloop?

[Nexus 5X Android Development] Bucika:

But man, it lags a ton!

I've flashed the latest official image before that, just to get a total clean install. I've left the phone for around half an hour to cool down before installing my apps, and I've left it for another half hour after that.

There is a very noticeable lag when swiping to the google now page (I've installed Nova) and there is a major delay when opening the settings app from the statusbar.

All in all, will defiantly come back when the next one is released, but that is just to much, at least for me.

[Nexus 5X Android Development] djordan79:
Should I wipe anything before I flash the base package?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] jugoslavpetrovic:
I don't think so. But flash it before flashing rom, and could be recommended that you do factory reset before flashing rom if you are coming from some other rom which very likely.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] djordan79:
Thanks! I'm on this rom currently. Still factory reset?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] jugoslavpetrovic:
No, if you are already on PixelRom that đeams you already did factory before this rom, I guess you are on latest build but having that hardware worning. Then you flash base and then flash latest rom zip after.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] djordan79:
Hey it's still laggy after the new flash. Should I clear dalvik cache and try to re flash it?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] Josh:
Sure! If you have lags after that try to wipe system dalvik cache and flash ROM after that.
