KNOWN ISSUES

1) Google camera doesn't save 30fps videos. Use Snap camera, or record 60fps with Google camera.

2) On all LOS-based ROMs, while the Pixels are recognized as Pixel devices in Photos and it says you have unlimited storage, apparently backing up photos DOES take away from your Drive storage allocation. All I can say is that this is being looked into, but no solution has been found to date.

Aside from that, as far as I can tell there are no longer any bugs! Please report any that you run into, assuming you have tested on a clean install. :good:

NON-BUGS, BUT ITEMS OF INTEREST

1) Pixel Launcher is included, but I haven't figured out round icons in it yet.

2) I tried getting live wallpapers to work, but after seeing it would add almost 100 MB to the already big install zip (due to gapps inclusion), I decided against it altogether. You can download an app with them here.

Don't expect any support if you:

- are not running the included kernel

- have installed any mods such as Xposed!

- have modified system files

Thanks to:

- Google

- LineageOS

- SlimRoms

- AOSPA (Paranoid Android)

- OmniRom

- NamelessROM

- @beanstown106 for his hard work on this device, specifically the gapps without which the PixelXL wouldn't be a PixelXL in Google's eyes.

- @flar2 for his excellent ElementalX kernel, which is used in crDroid for marlin.

- Many others... (if you're feeling upset being out of the thanks list just send a PM )
