im on the november build... im not a noob... ive done so many flashes with previous phones... however whats the proper way to go from this build to the jan ota stock build at least...
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] michaelfields4214:
Download the stock file and go into TWRP and then go to ADB Sideload and use the sideload command to flash the stock ota firmware

Command syntax

adb sideload *filename.zip

This will delete TWRP in the process and do a complete factory reset.

I was on version 2 which is Nov release I believe and I did not flash stock prior to flashing this release. I did a dirty flash. The phone is working, but not sure I have the Jan radio. Hence my question.

Loaded questions

Were you able to use VoWiFi with a previous version of Pixel Dust? I never could make it work because of limitations imposed by my carrier and the proprietary code they push on their own stock ROM and SIM card. Took me some time digging into this issue to find out that in my case, trouble stems from the carrier, not the ROM. That's why I'm asking if VoWiFi stopped working for you because you loaded the update: patch four+ on Pixel XL.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] michaelfields4214:
Previous build was strange when enabling VoWifi it still said the Error message but then changed from being Disabled to enabled in the settings menu but not entirely sure if it actually worked for me since when I saw the issue the first time I was hoping in between ROMs and was seeing what was the most stable for me. I don't really care a ton about WiFi calling working; just figured I'd put it out there. Besides that not working everything else works great this current build feels a lot smoother then previous only annoying thing is that carrier pop up randomly happening any way to stop that from popping up?
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] lcorkery243:
Flashing Latest Build

I swear I always ask this with almost every build but I'm normally behind like 3 builds so I always ask just to be sure. I'm currently on the October 12th build and wanted to know if dirty flash is fine to do on the latest build? Just wiping system and dalvik, flashing latest build, then flashing TWRP, reboot recovery to swap slots, then reboot system? I hope I don't have to flash stock again because it definitely is a big pain having to re-download everything and whatnot. Thank you in advance and keep up the awesome work!!!
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] androidtechmb:
Pop up

Not sure what you mean by annoying carrier random pop up. Only thing that comes to mind reading this was AdAway. I use it and there's absolutely no pop ups on my phone, but I can't recall ever having any from my carrier.

[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] bkkzak:
I have been on stock since DP4 came out in June or whatever, but VoWifi did work for me on stock. Pixel Xl + Verizon is a working configuration for VoWifi, so this rom just needs some more commits to make it work. I had the same issue (EmergencyAddress stopping when trying to turn it on in settings) when I was using Oreo custom roms last spring, but the rom dev was able to include commits from, I believe, the maintainer of Pixel Xl LOS's builds and then it started working

---------- Post added at 06:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:52 PM ----------

It's not working for me. I have all now playing options turned on (lock screen and notifications)

---------- Post added at 07:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:53 PM ----------

And just curious, is it possible to add app actions (the suggestions at the top of the app drawer, maybe they're called slices?) and a couple more features to the pixel dust launcher?

I was skeptical to use the pixel dust launcher, but have really enjoyed it!

In my mind, it's only missing: app actions at the top of app drawer, text selection in overview, and ability to individually change icons (I have a global icon pack but would like to change a minority of my icons to a different icon pack).

I might try Lawnchair again, but when I tried a month ago it felt so slow and unstable.

Thank you very much spezi for the rom, I can't believe I didn't come back to custom roms sooner! I especially like how on a clean flash, suggestions popup to tell you about the custom roms features (e.g., when I swiped down on the notifications it offered to enable the right side notification pull down).

Call screening works. I have lost root once though and sometimes the launcher becomes unresponsive (when I click an icon it gets slightly larger, then either the app never launches or launches after several seconds) until I reboot.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] bladerunnernexus:
I have not yet been able to produce a logcat but keep running into the same issue. the only thing i can think of is that my phone has a sim lock (pin) on the sim card, this sim lock seems to be on the sim itself as it is persistent thru factory resets and custom roms.

could this be why i cannot get pixel dust to boot? no built in pop-up for sim unlock prompt? going to factory reset one more time and try disabling the sim lock, after that i'll try to get the logcat and if that wont do it i'll have to give up -_-''
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] bladerunnernexus:
ok turns out it was not the sim lock that was preventing my device from booting pixel dust rom. still unsure what exactly it was doing. after reading several guides and explanations regarding the A/B partition scheme what i noticed my phone was doing initially was after clean install, it would boot into slot A after doing a fastboot boot twrp.img (even tho all guides told me i should be in slot B at this point) then i would flash pixel dust rom + twrp per OP instructions and do a reboot into recovery, after reboot i would still be in slot A, then boot into system, i would see the pixel dust logo (so i assume it did it right because the other slot had OEM android) but it would never boot. Then my last attempt, after removing the sim lock, i noticed after booting fastboot boot twrp.img i was in slot B for some reason (not altering any steps) and did the guide per the OP w/ reboot into recovery to switch to active slot, and still no dice.

Not understanding why it's just my phone that's doing this. I also tried flashing the rom to both slots a and b. i also noticed that each time i flash-all.bat it is saying something about vendor.img and boot.img and things of that nature missing from my archive, yet it still succeeds... maybe this has soemthing to do with it? still no logcat sorry.

My Google Fi sim isn't activating.

Nevermind after a few reboots it finally activated.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] koivth:
First of all I want to lead with how impressed I am with this Rom, thanks spezi!!! I can't believe I've been on stock for so long, glad to be back in the game.

That being said, I have experienced only one shortcoming of this rom. I had issues with Carrier Provision Service being unresponsive, and the UI offered me to force close the app. My Google Fi service was able to activate and I have mobile data, but within the Fi app it keeps asking me to maximize my coverage, but doing so fails. I also have FiSwitch and that fails as well doing a network reset/repair. Again I have mobile data and I'm mostly on wifi so it's not a huge deal, but it's noteworthy because it appears I'm not the only one experiencing this.

I did try to clear data and cache for Carrier Services and Carrier Provisioning Services (and sprintdm, since that is where it gets stuck when trying to maximize coverage). I even went as far as downloading the apks and reinstalling them via adb, I was able to get Carrier Services reinstalled but got stuck on the Carrier Provisioning Services. Anyone with Google Fi have issues like this that found a work around?

hello guys, I installed the latest update with the patch in January 2019, then the latest version of TWRP 3.2.3.1, after, I cleaned dalvik and cache and rebooted the recovery, and I flashed Magisk v. 18.0, everything works perfectly and a quick and easy installation without having to select any slot (A or B)

If I'm already rooted with magisk will it survive a dirty flash or will I have to boot up & then reflash magisk? [MENTION=4946430]milocj[/MENTION] were you rooted when you dirty flashed?
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] milocj:
I have flashed magisk after restarting in recovery mode again, before, only ROM and TWRP

I imagine that when you put a factory image, if you lose the recovery, you also lose the root

Stuck on Pixel Dust Screen

I am on android 9.0 and followed this instructions:

Reboot to TWRP recovery

Advanced Wipe (system, dalvik, data)

Flash ROM

Flash twrp-pixel-installer.zip

Reboot to Recovery (for it to switch active slots)

Do not flash a vendor.img (Pixel Dust ROM has a custom vendor image included)

Do not flash any third party GApps (Pixel Dust ROM has Google Apps included)

Reboot to System and enjoy the Pixel Dust Goodness!

Yet I am stuck on Pixel Dust Screen................ it stays there for a while and then restarts me to TWRP.

What can I do?

Take a logcat by connecting your device via USB to your PC. The command is: adb logcat

"Last Full Charge" is really just the last time it was plugged in. No matter if it is for a full charge or 1% charge.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] xologist:
I fixed it.

For anyone stuck at bootloop after flashing everything correctly according to the instructions, make sure you don't install TWRP 3.2.3-1 ... as soon as I reinstalled the image for TWRP 3.2.3-0 and ZIP 3.2.3-0 everything worked perfectly.

Also, at the end when rebooting to system I clicked "dont install" to TWRP message.

Everything worked great after, I was even able to restart to TWRP and install magisk.

So there you have it...

TLDR.... Use TWRP 3.2.3-0
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] :
You just needed to not install the twrp app, twrp 3.2.3-1 works fine
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] spezi77:
Yes, exactly. Just follow the instructions step by step. It doesn't say anything about "Install TWRP App".

No Mobile Data

I flashed without doing a data wipe and everything is working except for mobile data. I am in the United States using a Verizon SIM.

I've tried:

- Flash latest radio.img from Google

- Reset network settings (wifi/bluetooth/mobile)

- Changed network types (Gobal/CDMA, etc.)

- Rebooted with airplane mode on

- Removed SIM, rebooted, put back SIM

I cannot edit the APN, it is all greyed out, so I have not tried that. Not sure if it's related but I also keep getting a notification that Carrier Provisioning Services has crashed.

Any help would be appreciated. I really don't want to factory reset and re-flash so I'd like to avoid that option.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] androidtechmb:
Did you have your SIM card in when you flashed the ROM?

I have the same problem not being able to edit or create APN but my mobile data works. Did you have your SIM card in when you flashed the ROM? I did mine without the SIM card installed an wonder if that could have caused my not being able to edit APN. Plus my phone is in 4G - LTE now but if I change to 3G, cannot go back up to 4G since the option is missing and stuck unless I re-Flash.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] smb9870:
I flashed with my SIM card in, I think that the carriers have the ability to lock the APN so you cannot alter the settings, not positive though. I know it says not to flash a vendor image but I am thinking about trying it. I don't know what else to do.

[MENTION=5091819]spezi77[/MENTION] - I attached two logcats to this post related to carrier services having issues (one is adb logcat -v long, the other is adb logcat *:E*:S -v long). I took the logs from my device that is fully set up (not on the 1st boot of a clean flash - this install is from a clean flash but I have modified the settings and logged into my google account). I tried using the Google Fi app to maximize coverage, and did the network repair in FiSwitch (both failed). Oddly I have not had a pop-up saying carrier provisioning service stopped working since my first boot of the rom though.

Let me know if it would be more helpful to make a logcat of the 1st boot when carrier provisioning service says it is not responding, or if there is a different adb logcat command you'd want to see dumped here.

PS - Loving the rom, great work and thanks a bunch for sharing with the community.

I have a suspicion this might be an upstream bug, but if you enable auto-rotate and turn your phone landscape when you have the network preference dialog open, the 4G LTE option should reappear.

You can also dial *#*#4636#*#* in the dialer app, and select your network type from the phone information menu.

[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] androidtechmb:
It works, Landscape and back.

Thanks, I can now switch back and forth between 3G and 4G. The option shows up and stays on screen after rotating the phone. Update: Can see LTE option this way but cannot select it, phone will only stay in 3G. Must use the dialer App to successfully switch back to LTE. Thanks for that as the LTE signal is weak at home but 3G is Ok and really appreciate switching back and forth.

As for adding or editing my APN, looks like my provider locked that up on my new SIM card. They had me buy a new one to replace the one I had for about 4 years and on which I could add my own APN. Was having intermittent problems with incoming calls going straight to voice mail and no notifications I had messages on my Pixel XL. Had nothing to do with the ROM used.

No, it's your Hellfire kernel (love that name!) that is incl. in the ROM, in most cases I had a great experience with it, only changed the I/o shed to cfq. Didn't really see a big difference with couple of other kernels or tweaks that I tried.

Would you suggest that I try another kernel and which one?

Thanks again.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] spezi77:
Please also check your inbox. A few minutes ago I have PM'd you. In any case I recommend you to flash the ElementalX kernel. I use it as a base for the custom kernel which is included in Pixel Dust ROM.

Let's assume that after flashing ElementalX the reboot issue would be gone, it will give me a proof that I messed up the kernel in my build.
