Do i need to flash stock first on android 7.1.2 or direct flash this new package?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] argraur:
No you don't need
[Nexus 5X Android Development] arrche:
Thanks for the Google PixelROM v8.0a version.

If i use TWRP method, will I loose my internal memory data ?

and what about OTA ?

If again new updates comes ,i'll have to Wipe data, cache ?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] theviper:
No u wont lose your internal data
[Nexus 5X Android Development] linqdesires:
Which was the mistake? I'm getting play services fc too.

I even updated play services but no go

thank you

I clean flashed the second time, only the ROM. The first time I tried I flashed magisk at the same time. My guess was that magisk was causing the fc
[Nexus 5X Android Development] edoardotavecchio:
MagiskHide could cause Google Play Services FC, it's a known issue since ages.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] caifaz:
is it possible to dirty flash this rom over android O stock ROM, stock kernel and no root?

thanks
[Nexus 5X Android Development] Divyam123:
Could you add twrp as the recovery plsss
[Nexus 5X Android Development] alfick3:
TWRP is never in a ROM. You have to manually flash it, then flash the ROM as given in the instructions provided.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] Divyam123:
No I meant adding the twrp to the rom so we don't have to reflash it again and again (because it is replaced by the stock recovery everytime you flash an update).
[Nexus 5X Android Development] alfick3:
It's only replaced by the stock recovery of you flash the stock ROM from Google using fastboot. Once you have TWRP and flash a custom ROM, TWRP stays.

Edit: oh, and like I said, recovery is never part of a custom ROM. Recovery is only part of the official ROM from Google.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] Nicktheprofessor:
AOSP ROM's do exactly that by default and this ROM did that on the beta. Seems like he's changed that with the RC..
[Nexus 5X Android Development] Divyam123:
Ok?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] :
So, I can flash the release candidate over my 7.1.2 and have it boot properly?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] AerogamingHD:
No you have to wipe everything and flash the 8.0.0 Radio and Vendor. Then flash pixel rom

According to the OP that is not needed: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=73595491&postcount=6270

I don't know if radio and bootloader has changed since 7.1.2, if so it would be a good idea to flash it but it's apparently not needed, vendor is included with the RC.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] AerogamingHD:
I've already tried to flash 8.0.0 over 7.1.2 and it just bootloops the best and safest way to do it is to just manually flash the bootloader and Vendor.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] Nicktheprofessor:
Your sources on Gitlab seem to be missing? Every repo is empty.

---------- Post added at 06:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:16 PM ----------

Again, vendor is included in the RC version of the ROM (the one released today) but it wasn't in the beta. Bootloader and radio might be needed but not vendor.

[Nexus 5X Android Development] tenow1:
Instructions unclear. Going from 7.1.2 do I need to flash bootloader and radio or not? Also is this rom rooted?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] argraur:
Which version you've tried to flash? Only 30/8 build has vendor image included
[Nexus 5X Android Development] DCnovicky:
Successfully flashed 8.0 rc over 7.1.2 with twrp wiping data and cache only as instructions suggested.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] tenow1:
sounds awesome, but is there root? :)
[Nexus 5X Android Development] starxeon:
Root is not included but you can just flash SuperSU
[Nexus 5X Android Development] DCnovicky:
I flashed the latest supersu beta 2.82 SR3 linked in the PN thread and all is well.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] :
Which Google Apps package do I flash? There's no OpenGapps Android 8.0 package available yet. Or is Gapps built into the ROM? If so, did you use this? https://github.com/opengapps/aosp_build Is that updated to 8.0 for including with AOSP?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] kvarg:
Is it possible to flash this rom when im on Android Oreo stock?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] starxeon:
Yes. Flash PixelROM and clear data and cache
[Nexus 5X Android Development] DCnovicky:
This keeps popping up randomly??
[Nexus 5X Android Development] Josh:
Also got that issues but after few times now is everything fine. Try to flash ROM first without any mods, Super SU or something ...then reboot and install all you need and reboot recovery and install Super SU or what you need..
[Nexus 5X Android Development] abhay6547:
I'm not sure if it's just me or not, but unlocking using the fingerprint scanner is a little slow sometimes. On Nougat, I would put my finger on the scanner, it would vibrate, and the screen would turn on almost immediately. Now, there is a slight delay sometimes between the vibration and screen turning on. Everything else seems to work fine (although I have only used it for a few hours now). Thanks argraur!

Edit: Also GBoard seems to crash whenever I restart my phone (I get the force closed popup when the phone boots back up). After opening an app and selecting a text field it seems to work properly after that.

EDIT 2: After unenrolling from the GBoard beta, I believe the crashing issue is resolved.

Hi! Is the Ok Google feature working in the RC?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] kahntran:

I just installed new update. I want to report first impression. 'OK google' works on-screen, but not when screen is off. Other works fine, cool and awesome. Thanks for the hardwork !!!

Camera NX (https://xdaforums.com/nexus-6p/themes-apps/mod-camera-nx-v4-google-camera-zsl-hdr-t3494435) works without crash which is awesome.

One question plz: Can I flash Magisk after flashing the Rom which means Rom is flashed, phone is rebooted ?

[Nexus 5X Android Development] iamterence:
Yes. Flashing this ROM overwrites TWRP and installs stock recovery. Simply just reflash TWRP.

I remember using a tool to root this phone and not having to use abd for it all. Should it be as simple as possible TWRP again? And honestly thanks for getting back to me.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] Divyam123:
Flash the rom from twrp and then flash SuperSU (without rebooting) it will take some time to boot up and it may bootloop twice. Then install the twrp app and flash twrp from there

EDIT:You can directly flash twrp.img from twrp after installing the rom
[Nexus 5X Android Development] iamterence:
You could use Nexus Root Toolkit, or you could use adb. Adb is brain-dead easy. Or you could do what the user above posted. Up to you.

I update the vendor images and I've done the radio. The beta image works. But the new final version dosnt.

I'll ask again since you didn't notice my earlier post.

Your OP says "Source Code: https://gitlab.com/GooglePixelROM" but there is no source there, just a bunch of empty directories.

Found it here: https://github.com/argraur [EDIT] Or at least part of it, it's missing things. You should at least add kernel sources so you are GPL compliant. [/EDIT]

argraur, thanks for the your hard work!

P.S. Has anyone same problems?

It is very good, as for RC version, but not for Stable.

[Nexus 5X Android Development] Phalanx7621:
Ok folks this ROM is looking sexier by the day isn't it? Super exciting to see development this early after the source dropped. But just keep in mind , things are different on Oreo. Even on stock battery life was nowhere near as good as Nougat. Maybe it will be in a few weeks or s month but for now it's meh. Also even on stock Oreo for me it was a little laggier and not quite as buttery smooth. But I do really like the interface and color scheme they used , I am older now and prefer clean white rather than dark. How are everybody else's experience so far ?

Argraur,

Thanks for your hard work! Love the new build. I had a few issues but not a big deal. Just lazy on my part. When I flashed current (2017830) 8.0 ROM TWRP was overwritten with stock recovery. (I got a little lazy

and did not want to turn on my PC to flash TWRP back. Later..) Other is, Gmail app. using to much battery. Just got into stock recovery and overwrote caches and seems to be working well.

I always overwrite cache after and new update or install.

Thanks again sir!

Just flashed the latest build, I'm loving it! I like to live on the edge and didn't wipe /data/, but so far it seems to be working. GPS is great! I'm amazed by how quickly bugs were fixed.

Great ROM!
[Nexus 5X Android Development] AerogamingHD:
What am I doing wrong?

I format the data. and fastboot and flash the vendor and the radio.

I flash the latest Pixel rom and the setup build is laggy and the phone just dosnt work.

Am I missing something?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] Nicktheprofessor:
ART isn't like Dalvik, optimization happens on the fly as you use your phone so use it for a day and it will improve. I did the OTA without wiping anything an I've had no slowdowns at all, quite the opposite, it seems faster than Nougat.

[Nexus 5X Android Development] kahntran:
Hi,

Yeah, me too. When I saw his update, I flashed it right away. The "OK google" works on-screen but not off-screen. I hope he will find a work around solution. I feel like Google leave us - customers in this situation like PiP etc.

And the battery, I think it is good enough. Because when I was on 7.1.2 (stock), it goes hot sometimes. But this Rom has everything cool (a little heat while playing game, my city temperature is 25 - 32 degree these days).
[Nexus 5X Android Development] :
Anyone know the cause of the sluggish and the laggy UI? Other then that it works.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] Nicktheprofessor:
I do believe that this is because of the ART working in background for those that didn't OTA over a previous install.

I'm not having this problem at all, if anything it's faster and snappier than 7.1.2.

I haven't looked into it but if that is the case but it's been the same with the previews from what others have reported, by using it for some time (a day or so) you'll allow it to settle the caches.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] robotzki:
I'm still on stock oreo, so I can't talk for this rom. But the phone settles in after 1-2 days of use. For me oreo is just as snappy as nougat now!
[Nexus 5X Android Development] Nicktheprofessor:
Yeah, I did the OTA so for me it was fast from the get go (no need to rebuild ART since it's not cleared by OTA).
[Nexus 5X Android Development] argraur:
Such Oreo:p
[Nexus 5X Android Development] agmtpd:
The only micro stutters I notice are while those little new animations are played during pulling notification panel down with handful of notifications.

Otherwise it is as good as Nougat

Thanks Dev☺️
[Nexus 5X Android Development] skoolished:
Turn on eis

argraur..can u enable the EIS on the next build. I don't wanna root this rom to enable it. Other than that it's a perfect rom
[Nexus 5X Android Development] Nicktheprofessor:
I don't have that either, it's smoother than 7.1.2 on that too.

It boots up faster, starting apps is faster, app drawer is faster, fingerprint is just as fast if not faster, pull down notifications is faster...

In games (basically eternity was the only one that lagged for me) it's faster and in apps it's faster.

To me it's the same or an improvement and I didn't do anything but update from 7.1.2 via OTA without clearing anything.

It's a neat upgrade but I'll still be running Vanir as soon as they get their sources together for me to compile it, that's the only ROM I've ever used that actually makes a great deal of difference (ever since ICS) on battery life and performance.

I'm not going to be device maintainer though, I just use what I like and provide patches to get it to my liking.

---------- Post added at 09:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:17 PM ----------

Apparently bootloader and radio is new for Oreo so you should flash that before flashing this ROM if you are coming from 7.1.2 no matter what ROM.

Vendor is included in the ROM.

OP should update instructions and [MENTION=6881528]argraur[/MENTION] update your OP with proper link to sources and should the platform_frameworks_base be empty?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] jugoslavpetrovic:

[Nexus 5X Android Development] kvarg:
Is the battery time good?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] Nicktheprofessor:
Well come September the 5'th there will be a security update so....

For me it was well worth updating to Oreo using OTA. As a normal user I'd probably wait until the next security update though, just because it's right around the corner.

---------- Post added at 11:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:36 PM ----------

There is a new option to limit backround services in every app, it works quite well so if you spend the time to do that properly and if you disable "mobile data always on" in development settings you get better battery life than with Nougat.

At least that is true for me.

But let's face it, no matter what ROM, kernel or what have you you'll always have between 3-7 hours of on screen battery time and at best you can gain 15 minutes at the cost of some latency settings.

Doze seems to be more aggressive now though, that's nice.

[Nexus 5X Android Development] Nicktheprofessor:
Given that it's not included in the ROM I have a hard time understanding how that would enable navbar animation.

Not yet, you can use Tulsadrivers stuff do do it.

You'll find that in themes and apps for Nexus 5x.

Yes, i know this isn't stock oreo but those files should be the same, Stock is AOSP after all.

---------- Post added at 03:11 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:07 AM ----------

You can't unencrypt (decrypting is done on the fly and works as intended), you'll have to wipe and use a kernel that doesn't have a boot command line to enforce encryption.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] :
O ok. I will reflash this weekend's and let's your settle. Had to go back to stock for the time being. I should have just been patient lol.

Everything other works good for me, no other bugs can report.
