You can definitely try it. I did and it worked for me. Dual booted two different setups. You would need to make sure you have vendor flashed and SuperSU installed for that slot also though. Or it won't boot
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] docluv01:
Ahh, ok, was hoping to keep one of the slots unrooted.

oh well, thanks for ur great work!
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Mentalmuso:
You could try a stock version unrooted. I had to re root to get weta go boot.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] docluv01:
You mean one of the factory images?

Could that be flashed via TWRP?
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] AllusionPDX:
When I run a first time boot it gets "Text to speech app has stopped working" after which I have noticed a few system apps, like the clock do not work, I found that out last night when i realized I couldn't set an alarm. could just be a verizon phone issue, since I should have known better than buying a verizon phone and using it on google fi...but hey.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Mentalmuso:
You can flash stock system.img in twrp. Though if you are wanting to be unrooted, I'm not really sure if supersu roots both slot a and slot b boot.img. you may have to go right back to stock using fastboot, the start with flashing twrp. Then booting into bootloader to check which slot is being used by stock.. then change slots in twrp to the opposite slot, then flash vendor.img on that slot (otherwise it won't boot) , flash rom while selecting the slot you are flashing the rooted system to, then flash SuperSU .

This all may be a waste of time if supersu roots both slots
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Mentalmuso:
This has been mentioned and answered every day. After play store updates TTS, it fixes it. And clock etc is because you didn't fully wipe data. So go into play store and uninstall the clock update and reinstall. Do this with every google app that is giving you trouble.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] madmaverickmatt:
Can We Add AM/PM Back to the clock?

Thank you
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Mentalmuso:
I'll try remember to next week
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] docluv01:
Thanks man, I tried this

this is what I did:

in TWRP, changed slots to B

flashed vendor.img

flashed system.img

Rebooted...

Turns out, its the EXACT SAME image as A, just unrooted. go figure. I tried deleting a few apps, to see if the changes trickled to A, rebooted into A, and they did.

So, I can boot in the same OS installation (stock) in SLOT A, with all my mods and root, or in B without mods or root.

Not exactly what I was looking for, but does solve my issue. In B, I am able to use all apps that get blocked by root.

not sure if anyone else experienced this

[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] le0.br4zuc4:
How do you choose the slot to boot from?
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] docluv01:
you have to boot into twrp to change slots under reboot
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] kirschdog1:
Installed as op said to however only su comes up none of the mods come up like dts, viper or center clock. I tried to reinstall the marlin zip without flashing su since it was already installed and it rebooted to os however no luck with the great mods..

I think its because im on the latest Software NPF26J......Amy ideas love dts and center clock

.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Ker~Man:
It works fine, buddy! :good::p
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Mentalmuso:
Read through the thread a little bit, there has been a bit said regarding this. 1.0.2x version has a boot slot option to install to. You are probably booting into boot slot b so need to install rom to that slot
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Mentalmuso:
Where did you get this NPF26J?
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] madmaverickmatt:
Nah, I have the same issue, but I'm on the v build. I think it's because I'm booting from slot b. Are you?

Also, can we install the new version 1.0.2 I think, over the v build?

Thanks
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Ker~Man:
Negative... You must wait for the 1.0.2 update for the V build *OR* flash the X images and THEN the 1.0.2x update. Hope this helps!
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] pyroelite:
Installed 1.0.2 X (w/Ex kernel). All the mods were available and work fine, except there was no option to add/enable navbar tuner mod. Was it removed or is it separate mod like on 6P? Or where in settings?
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] kkeith:
[MENTION=2513779]pyroelite[/MENTION] You have to drag your notification panel down, then hold the gear icon down until your phone vibrates, this enables the UI tuner, the nav bar tuner is in there under settings
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] pyroelite:
Thanks, yeah that's what I thought, but nothing happened/appears...
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] le0.br4zuc4:

[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] joey.gunnarson:
I have a Verizon Pixel XL 128gb on NDE63X. I followed the instructions in the OP as well as flashing boot_a and boot_b. I also used ElementalX kernel version 1.00, should I have flashed this before or after the ROM in twrp? Everything installs perfect but when I'm booted V4A 2.5.0.4 won't work. I can open the app as well as change settings but the driver status says abnormal and it won't process. Any help is appreciated!

Edit: I reinstalled without a kernel and everything works. Idk if its possible to get it working with the kernel or since its a zip if you have to flash it after.

Thanks

[Google Pixel XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] CZ Eddie:
Trump... lol it doesn't matter if you hate him or love him, you'll laugh at this boot animation I found and custom fit for the Pixel XL.

http://api.bhoot.co.uk/file/890df857fa5732c947998c7480c36453/webm

Just use Root Explorer to copy it to /system/media.

First, rename the old bootanimation.zip to bootanimation.old if you don't want to lose it.

Then change permissions on this new one to RW/R/R like you see in my screenshot below.

Then reboot and lol.

[MENTION=4274380]CZ Eddie[/MENTION],

I have a request for you. When I boot my XL in the morning, the BRIGHT WHITE boot animation just about burns my eyes out!

Would it be possible to make a dark version?

Or attached is a dark version that I found for sailfish. Could it be resized for our XL?

Thanks, in advance
[Google Pixel XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] cntryby429:
I think that's FROM the pixel and it was shared for use on other phones along with the modified black version. To my knowledge, it hasn't yet been determined if we can even modify our splash screen which is what I think you're talking about. It's been asked, I've been waiting for a definitive answer.
[Google Pixel XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] CZ Eddie:
Nope, the Boot logo cannot be changed yet.

Not even the Nexus 6P on Nougat has changeable boot logos yet.

FYI for those who don't know.

The white stationary screen during boot up is the "boot logo/splash screen".

The white animated screen (that otherwise looks the same) during boot up is the "boot animation'.

Boot animation is easy to change.

Boot logo = fuggedaboutit.
[Google Pixel XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] CZ Eddie:
That's the weirdest boot animation I've ever seen.

1440x240 is the size of those PNG files.

It would take a LOT of editing work to resize them to 1440x2560 without losing the font's aspect ratio and keep it from "wobbling" on screen.

Have you tried extracting the bootanimation.zip from that bootanimation.zip and putting it in /system/media to see how it works as-is?
[Google Pixel XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] cam30era:
No I didn't. Didn't bother because I figured it was a waste of time.

But thanks a lot for taking a look at it. Appreciate it.
[Google Pixel XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] CZ Eddie:
Sorry that took so long.

Here is your resized bootanimation:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/x3bqtxe9ufzn146/bootanimation.zip?dl=0

It's a loooong animation.

That or my phone just took a little longer than normal to boot when I tested it.

Just add it to /system/media and change permissions on it to RW/R/R and reboot to test.
[Google Pixel XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] moosc:
It's perfect no issues. Boot up seems about same..thanks alot
[Google Pixel XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] geronimogman:
this maybe a silly question, but do I need to be rooted to add this boot animation? Im currently unlocked and on the 7.1.1 verizon build. thanks in advance. (strictly doing this, to piss off girlfriend!)
[Google Pixel XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Ashutosh Sundresh:
You of course need to be rooted and your bootloader must be unlocked. You should also have TWRP recovery.
[Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers] Linux4ever85:
Hi,

Anyone know a link to how to set correct settings to use manual control for XZ to get great pictures instead of using auto? I did a google search, nothing really comes up. Unless I am using wrong key words in my search.
[Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers] Heinous:
I'd also be interested in some sort of guide to squeezing the best photos possible from this camera.
[Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers] enriqueyang:
I tried in manual mode but whenever i try adjust iso the shutter speed would become auto and when i adjust shutter speed the iso i believe becomes auto too
[Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers] knoxploration:
That would be because it is shooting in priority mode, not fully manually. The aperture is fixed in smartphone cameras, so the only way to use a faster shutter speed without making the picture darker is to also increase the sensitivity, and the only way to use a slower shutter speed without making the picture brighter is to decrease the sensitivity (and vice versa).

There are no "best" settings for Manual mode. The settings you choose will depend on the picture you want to take. The "best" settings for Manual mode if you want to set and forget them are to put the camera back in Auto mode, and let it choose the settings for you. That's true on any cameraphone with manual and auto modes, too.
[Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers] Guids:
I also would like a noob guide to (smartphone) photography. I never know what to set in manual mode.
[Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers] Bepli:

[Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers] knoxploration:
If I get a moment, I'll make one when my phone arrives and I've had a chance to see what settings they've added since my just-died Xperia Z2.
[Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers] Linux4ever85:
Anyone got any guide?
[Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers] maidguitar:
Very generally speaking, since the aperture is fixed (at f/2.0), the USUALLY best way to take a sharper photo is to use as low of an ISO you can. PERSONALLY I find that a lot of the oversharpening you get with Xperia cameras comes from the auto mode using too high ISO. If you define the ISO yourself in manual mode, the SONY camera will automatically choose a shutter speed. So, the bottom limit of the ISO you can set will generally be if the image is too dark, or you can't hold the phone steady enough for a longer exposure. As a general rule of thumb, in broad daylight with great lighting you can use ISO 50 or 100. Indoors during the day I might try 200. At night indoors, like in a restaurant I'll use 400. And in darker shots I'll try ISO 800.
[Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers] pk-air:
First of all make sure you use higher mpx option. Second is adjust settings when you actually taking photos which I found best way for me. That way you can see how photos will come out in real time and then snap it.
[Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers] Heinous:
Do you guys get better results using the on-screen shutter button or the physical button?
[Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers] maidguitar:
I prefer to use the on-screen button, it's a smoother action for me to hold the button with my thumb to focus and then gently let go.

Greets,

I recently was duped into thinking a meeting, which was a week away, was actually that day ... because the Tilt shows the next appointment regardless of how far in the future that appointment is.

Does anyone know how to set the Tilt to show only appoints for the current day?

Thanks!

Start \ Settings \ Today \ Items \ Calendar \ Options has 3 Selections:

Display : Next Appointment (Radio Button)

Display : Upcoming Appointments (Radio Button)

and a check box to display all day events.

From what I am seeing in the options, unless you have selected upcoming appointments, you can't change it. I haven't used the default calendar in a LONG time, and never in WM6. There might be a registry entry you could change, but I have no idea on how to "phrase" the search.

There are many 3rd party programs that can display your calendar. I use pocket breeze, but there are others, and even a couple of good freebies.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] mfrazzz:
I personally use PocketBreeze also and you don't have to worry about this with all of the settings (its just trying to get all of the dang settings configured right as there are SO MANY! :) ).

TodayAgenda is a free app that works pretty well and may resolve this for you. Check it out (a lot of people use it here). I paid for PocketBreeze and like the speed of it better, and the tabs it gives for different things on the Today Screen.

But since the phone is originally a Note 5 Sprint and I'm using it as a Note 5 Family Mobile idk what to do. It works great as is but a change of some type would be cool. Anyways. Please let me know.

Oh and my phone is NOT rooted. Only network unlocked!
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Turbine1991:
By unlocked, do you mean network unlocked? Usually I'd say it'll stay unlocked, but Sprint is one company I haven't unlocked the device from.

Perhaps you could install TWRP, make a backup, copy backup to pc. Upgrade, reinstall TWRP and restore upon failure.
