Great Rom! Only issue I've seen so far is that PN will randomly freeze and reboot. Happens maybe once every few days. Don't really use bluetooth so I can't really comment on that issue others are experiencing. Keep up the good work [MENTION=4395895]BeansTown106[/MENTION] !

I did experience my first reboot after 4 days, was a bit disconcerting, especially to hear of another report. I hate it when my phone reboots, mostly due to all of the notifications I lose.

Not sure what was going on. Maybe I was selecting the wrong option to update? Not entirely sure but I kept on getting the error where the apk was not able to be signed or something like that. Anyways, I ended up uninstalling the theme, reinstalling it, and then I enable and built every overlay one by one and finally had no reboots or freezes. Theme is sweet.

Great build Beans :) I did clean flash and fastboot updated my bootloader and radio from factory image { 7.1.2 (N2G47E, Apr 2017)} since I am on T-Mobile and my PXL has never ran better. I am running with no root for the first time in years since substratum did not require it. I use SwiftBlack and only very moderately and have 0 issues since I stopped fighting Goggle apps themed awhile ago and it made my phone much more stable. Only thing I really need themed is notifications. Full access to Android Pay again with no problems at all is very nice.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Juzman:
Does it theme Facebook and XDA-Labs and stuff too?

I love Swift Black at the moment.

Have my Pixel XL for about 6 months now. All stock, latest security patch April 2017. Want to run Pure Nexus like I did with Nexux 6, and 6P. The dual partition thing had me a bit unsettled. :eek: But I'm ready now. Aside from going to each thread for root, recovery, and ROM, is there a soup to nuts guide that covers all this? Would like to read start to finish before actually doing anything. I'm comfortable with adb as opposed to a toolkit.

Just a heads up, I flashed the bootloader from NHG47L and I got stuck in the ram dump screen. Reflashed NHG47K bootloader and booted fine.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Iceman248:
Thanks. I actually use the bootloader and radio from the Unlocked version (N2G47E), which has worked fine. Is there any benefit whatsoever to using the NHG47K bootloader/radio?
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Juzman:
I just figured since Beans bases PN off of the Verizon builds, I would flash the corresponding bootloader/radio.

I will try bootloader from N2G47O and see if I get the ramdump screen - edit: Still get ramdump screen when using bootloader from N2G47O, back to NHG47K bootloader.

The modem from N2G47O (May) is older than the one from April (NHG47K).

[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Juzman:
Latest PN build is April 23, and NOTE: with the rom being signed with private keys now a clean flash is mandatory, you will be able to dirty flash from official to official builds in the future, but you cant dirty flash from unofficial to official, and you cant dirty flash from another rom to purenexus.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Iceman248:
I think he means all of the factory images released by Google today don't work with current version of this ROM. As in flashing the bootloader, at least.

I think we have to wait until next version of this ROM until we get the security patches. Don't consider it a big deal, it's just a security patch. They're released regularly, we'll likely all survive just fine without May patch until next version of this ROM.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] pcriz:
I'm talking about the Google monthly security updates. Not talking about the PN Rom. For the people that love to flash the newest factory images. They may want to wait for this one.

All this about flashing bootloader's and modems and radios is outta hand. The safest most secure way to be up to date is flash the factory image. You won't bootloop and if you do it's something YOU did on your end. Yes it wipes phone but if you are backing up to Drive Cloud then no worries. Yes it takes 30 minutes from start to finish but oh well. Rant done.

I'll say though that if you flash the latest security update and try to fastboot twrp you will bootloop

You need to unlock the bootloader first.

Then flash the K bootloader and reboot system.

Download latest TWRP (rc2) zip on to the phone, you can root anytime so I won't cover it and you have some options.

Download PN Rom

Download K vendor (April Verizon)

Return to bootloader

Fastboot BOOT TWRP img

Flash TWRP zip in TWRP

Reboot to recovery

Factory Reset

Flash ROM

Flash TWRP zip again

Reboot to recovery

Flash K vendor (April Verizon)

Boot to system

I love this rom. I wanted something like stock but with tweaks and this is exactly what I wanted. I'm having some minor problems though and can't figure out why. I'm on the February build 7.1.1 and have flashed the linked vendor img but every time on boot it tells me to flash the correct vendor img nof26w. I've flashed it through twrp and through adb. The other issue I have is occasionally upon reboot it will go into a boot loop. I have to hope volume down and boot into bootloader then recovery and reboot from there. I think it's not always boring from the correct partition. Sometimes bootloader says active partition a and other times it says active b. I have ElementalX kernel installed as well as magisk. I'm on the February build because mock locations is removed in the March update.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] pcriz:

Yes I believe so I flashed it at the same time. I may have rebooted to system then immediately rebooted to recovery. It says I have the correct one though in settings. That's the strange part. I have a Verizon model if it makes a difference
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] pcriz:
Usually you need to reboot then flash it since the rom flashes to the inactive slot and damn near everything else affects the active slot

Anybody else experience slow wifi speeds? (30-50 KB/s slow) I know roms usually do not affect these kinds of things but it seriously cannot be anything else.

The only thing that crossed my mind with the whole process was flashing the "NHG47K" vendor.img which is listed as (Verizon) on Google's site while my phone is "N2G47E" (Project FI/unlocked).

But other than that... I am at a lost.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] 5.1:
Hello,

Vendor image won't affect wifi spped. We all use NHG47K. I'm not on Verizon either. I guess everyone would already complain about this issue.

[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] uodii:
I am of the belief it's network related because I connect to wifi at home and download speeds suck and most downloads just time out, but at work (same phone/rom/setup) and wifi speeds are insanely fast. Granted my work has insanely fast internet speeds, but I've got a 100Mb connection at home. So I dont understand. I need to get advice from a network engineer I think.

BTW, the issue persists across roms. So I dont believe it's rom related.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] texascfdad:
So, I dirty flashed the rom, flashed twrp r 2nd then rebooted system, still get prompted about incorrect vendor img. Reboot recovery, flash vendor img in the vendor slot. Reboot system and still get prompted about incorrect vendor img even though it shows the correct one in system settings. It doesn't seem to have a negative affect on the rom, it just bothers me. Im pretty sure there rom is in partition b but it still occasionally boots into a and boot loops until I go into recovery and reboot. As long as I don't reboot this rom is perfect lol
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] pcriz:
Both those issues are odd. I've seen a few that get random slot changes when rebooting. And you're sure it's the right vendor you are flashing? And you flashing it the right way, by selecting images, vendor yatta yatta
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] texascfdad:
I am flashing img to the vendor slot. It's vendor img I got from beanstowns afh. It has the correct name at least. I may try dling the full image and extracting the vendor from there.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] pcriz:
You can try but seems everything is right. So the downloaded one will essentially be the same vendor. Maybe download the Verizon build and flash all?
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] texascfdad:
Yeah I'll try that. Do you know what the build number is chance? How do I make sure it boots into the correct partition or is there not a fix? I may end up doing a full wipe and start the whole process over. At least I have tb and can restore all my stuff.

I wasn't in the bootloader on the first time and I've tried fastboot reboot-bootloader but it gets stuck on waiting for device.

[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] 5.1:
Hello,

Did you add the platform-tools folder to windows environnement path variable? I think if you didn't, fastboot needs to be in the same folder as the flash-all script.

As i always added platform-tools to the environment path variable, i'm not sure... :)

[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] pcriz:
I don't understand why you are listing both images, one is the international image and one is verizon..

Frankly it really doesn't matter, there are additional commits to address network issues on the verizon build but otherwise its identical to the E build. I just think it makes it more confusing than it needs to be.

He could flash any build from April so long as he turns around and flashes the vendor if it's a build other than the verizon one.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Blue305:
Yes I've extracted the image in the platform tools folder. Also I've installed the adb and fastboot system wide.. it's strange, I've been flashing custom rooms for a while, but I've never had such an issue before. Also I've tried all of my USB ports and still same result. When I type fastboot devices it gives me a blank space..
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] 5.1:
Hey,

If you added the platform-tools location to environment path variable, you don't need to extract the factory image in platform-tools folder anymore by the way... You can open a command prompt directly in the the extracted factory image folder (for future images flash :) ).

Now, it's strange it's not recognized though. Not sure what's the problem here, sorry...
