You can get into bootloader by holding power and down volume... then choose to boot into recovery.... as your recovery SHOULD be ok even in your bootloop scenerio, Hopefully you have copy of the rom on your internal memory, if not a usb-c to usb-a otg adaptor may be in order
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] slartibartfast42:
I know I can get into recovery and the bootloader. I did not have a copy of the zip rom, since that corrupted. You don't need an OTG cable, a regular USB-c cable works fine.

Anyways, I can reflash the rom with the USB cable now. That will boot. However, widgets will not load afterwards and magisk can't be installed. If I try to install magisk again, it boot loops again. And widgets will not load, none of them.

What do I try next? Do I need to clean install?
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] adm1jtg:
I had meant if you had otg adapter you could load rom on that and thus not need a computer or usb-c cable but yes your way works as well.

At this point I would wipe system, cache and data... at this point I would NOT wipe internal sdcard, reload and report back... also in my expierence its best to load rom then twrp, boot into rom and let it settle... then and only then reboot into recovery and load up magisk... so 2 passes
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] slartibartfast42:
I got magisk back by uninstalling magisk properly and reinstalling. I am still having the lagging issues. Notifications and widgets take over 10 minutes to load and other lagging behaviors. I'm gonna have to do the whole wipe system, cache, and data thing. I don't want to, but probably can't figure out another way to solve the lag problem.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] adm1jtg:
I only use 2 widgets and after a reboot they do come up slow but I cant really tell if they are slow after that as one is a weather widget that updates only once an hour the other an agenda widget so it only updates when i add a calendar event. Before ytou go and reload everything it might be worth a try to load up a different kernel like flash kernel as a test. I will likely be trying the same as i get occasional lags i cannot account for and also for some reason cannot use the kernel scrpt found in another forum as the system.d area wont let me write any files to it. I am hoping the fstab information is in the kernel and that using flash kernel will resolve bnoth my issues. I will report back after testing but will likely not be until tomorrow. If you decide to try flash kernel let me n,ow how things go for you as well.

And just for all you haters.... no this is not me not appreciating all the hard work OP has done... and no it is not me telling someone to change that work... it is simply me advising myself and possibly one other to test a specific scenario to help further isolate an issue so OP can get the information he needs to see if this is really an issue or simply an isolated incident.

UPDATE: I lied couldn't wait and loaded flash kernel. Loaded fine, widgets still seem to be a little slow on startup, I timed it my 2 widgets took right at 1 min 30 seconds to populate, I don't recall it taking nearly this long on stock. So it appears my widgets coming up slow is NOT affected by the kernel change, however, my access to /sbin/.core/img/.core/service.d the location for the unified kernel tuning script now allows me to copy files to it. On default kernel I was denied access to creating or copying files in that area.

UPDATE 2: With flash kernel and the tuning script (it was made for flash kernel) the widgets now take only about a minute to populate.

[MENTION=5091819]spezi77[/MENTION] I hope you find this information useful. For me the ability to write to that system area with a kernel script is important. The OP of the script posted that it is being reworked to work properly with any kernel now that flash kernel is final and will no longer be updated. I have found it to be extremely useful so am hoping you can figure out why your default kernel will not allow write access to that folder/area

Flashing Newest Build

I'm currently on the 8.1.0 Pixel Dust ROM build from August and I wanted to know how I should flash the newest build. Do I need to completely wipe everything, flash stock ROM, then flash the Pixel Dust one? Or what is the best way to flash this new build? Also, for flashing stock, we use the factory image not the full OTA image correct? I have the Verizon Pixel XL and I believe I'm supposed to only download the image that says Verizon on it from the Google Factory Image page. Than you in advance and keep up the awesome work!!!!! https://ibb.co/gxRzqL
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] HueyT:
Going from Oreo to Pie needs clean flash, installation of stock pie, reinstalling TWRP, and then installing custom Pie Rom.

Installation of stock Pie can be done either through fastboot mode's flash-all command (then reinstalling TWRP via fastboot), or via flashing OTA zip via TWRP (must flash TWRP zip before reboot or lose TWRP).

You'll have to back up apps via Ti Backup and "internal storage" by moving files to PC and then back to phone after via USB cable (or OTG flash drive via USB port if no PC)

Non clean flash will cause errors and even bootloops
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] lcorkery243:
Thank you so much! So just download the Full OTA image and flash that via TWRP, then flash TWRP installer zip before i reboot into recovery again to install Pie ROM? Sorry, just don't want to mess up my phone!

Love the new font and the QS tiles, also thankyou for adding new accent colours.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] spezi77:
Hello [MENTION=9350973]All[/MENTION]

Please be warned that the new build dropped by today, will go into boot loop if clean flashed. You can of course dirty flash it, and it will just work perfectly fine!

All blame on me.. In my test scenarios I forgot to consider doing a clean installation. :eek:

A new build with a fix is on its way...

Okay this is very weird, google assistant seems to be not working properly since the update. So it responds to your voice but if you give it a 2nd command in quick succession it doesnt recognize your voice until after a good whole minute. Does it have something to do with the microphone permissions i have no idea

---------- Post added at 10:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:31 PM ----------

Something is definitely wrong with the microphone, its like GA can not access it for a while then everything is fine, then i use it again and then it can not access it again for a while. Everything was fine before the update and the google app hasnt gotten an update
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] spezi77:

i factory reset my phone and it went into a bootloop, what should i do?

after a while it goes back into twrp, can someone please help out
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] mikefnz:
You will probably need to do a clean install.

Use the updated version?
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Eyalkn:
[MENTION=5091819]spezi77[/MENTION] thank you for your awesome work. I noticed that after the last update "lift to check phone" and "double tap to check phone" gestures do not work anymore. Is anybody else expressing this issue?

Update: ok I found out what it was, I disabled ambient display on the quick settings. So never mind.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] YTSec:
This new update is extremely smooth for me! Love the new "Now playing" options (history mainly). My only issue with the last few builds has been insane lag while using the device while charging, even with a custom kernel. I'll run out the battery, and try that again to see if it's fixed. But other then that, this seems great so far, thanks for the great ROM!
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Sarim26:
Yeah i got it working, thanks
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] blokant:
I have been using "release one" android 9 version of this rom without root or anything and that was so great!(And 8 version was smooth and good too!) Dirty flashed 0826 then after reboot installed 1750 updated version. Very nice. Font is cool... but Wifi cant be turned on. LTE works fine. I always did dirty flashes because i dont want to install/set up everything

What to do?

After a while a installed custom(named 'flash' on this site) kernel: nothing changed. Wifi is trying to up but failed without any message, just grey toggle. After that I installed king kernel - nothing. I think i can install factory OTA zip reboot to twrp again and install latest pixeldust. But i am note sure, i have to have working phone

This is after toggling wifi button:

On the latest build (pie r2) using all stock kernel. There is a stutter in the rom for me, playback is a little laggy too. On the previous build everything was good, I even downclocked a bit using ex manager. Speakermod used to work flawlessly now it stutters ;-[

Had the stutter issue with Benzo rom, came to pixel dust it was gone, now its here with r2 build

[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] SlenderCraft:
Yes please. Have been on stock waiting for the next update for this rom to release. Now I finally had the time to do it and I wanted to swap some files out and kept getting errors. This is my favorite 9.0 rom but this was a major drawback to me. :p

Magisk couldn't flash modules because of it and it wouldn't even let me move a 1.85MB file onto system.

Temporarily going back to stock since there are some modules that I have pretty much became core features to me.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] YTSec:
Same here, I get some lag, but it's significantly less than before. Ill go ahead and give it a clean flash to end it though!
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Gabryele1976:

I would like it to be white like it was in version 1 and on stock pie but I can't figure out how to change it. Is this a bug or a setting I can correct somewhere. Anyone got any info?

On R2 after a dirty flash I'm getting those older random reboots again, I'll try a clean flash and update this if it happens after.

mm, could you please explain better sorry? I don't understand very well what do you mean :) sorry
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] YTSec:
I updated from Pie Release 1 to release 2 via a dirty flash, since then I've been noticing my phone saying "unlock with pin after a reboot" but I actually caught the random reboot today. I'm going to do a clean flash of Release 2 to rule out the dirty flash, and run it without my normal mods for a day or two. I remember back on Oreo on a few ROMs I would sometimes get random reboots when opening the camera for example, but it wasn't a issue recently. It's honestly probably one of my system mods, but I still want to rule it out. I'll update that last post I made with a log if it randomly reboots again.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Gabryele1976:
OK thanks.

I have flash the november factory image and now I can boot normally. I don't have any ROM installed but I can save my data with Titanium backup.

After that I will do a factory reset and install the ROM r2
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] YTSec:
You're having the same issue? Personally, I don't have much of a need to save my app data, I usually just let Google do a backup then restore while setting up.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] HueyT:
Backup \data via TWRP, clean wipe all except internal SD, clean flash new ROM, once booted, then flash Magisk to root and restore \data
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] harihacker:
On first boot, do you set up phone as new without google backup restore?
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] HueyT:
I always clean flash mine and then use Google restore to bring apps back.

Gabryele1976 wanted to try dirty flash so I told him how but he bootlooped so gave him another way to clean flash and then restore data from prior build afterwards.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] HueyT:
1) Download OTA zip from google for PIE Nov. 2018, Pixel ROM, Magisk 17.3, any other Magisk modules, as well as latest TWRP official zip, and flash in TWRP recovery, then flash TWRP zip following that--stock rom replaces TWRP recovery with stock recovery (green android on its back)

2) Reboot system to load up the stock rom--don't do setup but using Volume Down and Power to reboot to TWRP recovery. Flash Pixel ROM and TWRP zip (Pixel rom replaces TWRP recovery with stock recovery so need this to keep TWRP) and reboot to system

3) No need for Vendor image or Gapps as both are included in Pixel ROM v2. Google will restore your prior apps when you set it up.

4) Reboot to TWRP recovery and flash Magisk 17.3 zip for root (any modules of Magisk zips can be flashed here as well--I use NoAd, Busybox, and Viper4Audio zips). Reboot to system and enjoy.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Amer:
Thank you so much! This is very helpful for newcomers to the rom and should be added to the first post since so many things change from update to update and from personal experience, reading the last 20 pages of the thread there was a lot of confusion about how to proceed.

Thanks again, I will be flashing this rom tonight.

Well being in Scotland only two colour choices available (Midnight Black & Orchid Grey) and although the black does look sleek, the Orchid Grey has a very nice appeal so that was my choice.....

Order placed as soon as i could & looks like a nice 20th of April shipping..

Looking forward to checking out the S8+ although being a smartphone junkie I'll flip & sell to buy the Note 8.....

What was your choice & did you rush to pre order?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Highspeed123:
Ordered the Midnight Black, my last 3 phones were Gold so I wanted a change. Hopefully I'll also receive it on the 20th, Three said the 29th when I ordered over the phone, but have it listed as a "get it early" incentive on their website. I'm in SW England btw and also only had a choice of Black or Grey. I wanted black anyway so no bother. Excited to try it out!

Haha I'm just like you, can't help but swap phones when something new and shiny arrives. I'll probably sell next year and get a Oneplus then upgrade again and so on...

The Note is too similar to the S range for me to trade for. Other than the S Pen of course. I had three phones last year and I'm currently using the Xiaomi Mi5S Plus. Shouldn't have bothered with this one, just wanted to try it out.
