[MENTION=5091819]spezi77[/MENTION] does this ROM have ADB access disabled like your previous versions?

I don't remember what you called it, some kind of special build without ADB support for increased performance?

I'm just wondering cuz I'm in the market to try a new ROM, i like what yours offers, but I can't live without ADB...

first time pixel user. just want to know, if im already on stock r28, do i still need to flash stock rom? or can i skip it?

[MENTION=5091819]spezi77[/MENTION] -- thanks for the rom! Very stable, very nice!

A few bugs to report, hopefully will be fixed by next revision:

- Smart Pixel does not apply over Slim Recents and Battery Saver (red) Nav Bar

- Fling Nav Bar: there seems to be a hidden long swipe left that auto locks phone (is there a way to disable?)

- Fling Nav Bar: long press left/right does not seem to trigger any custom actions (e.g. Home) but can trigger apps only
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] spezi77:
Thanks for your feedback -- highly appreciated!

1) Smart Pixel does not apply over Slim Recents and Battery Saver (red) Nav Bar

I'll try to see what I can do here..

2) Fling Nav Bar: there seems to be a hidden long swipe left that auto locks phone (is there a way to disable?)

Fixed in official release 6.

3) Fling Nav Bar: long press left/right does not seem to trigger any custom actions (e.g. Home) but can trigger apps only

I'll try to look into it. Honestly, I don't use FlingBar too often.. :P

I use mobile banking, its called Mandiri Online

I have used magisk v 16.4 and still detected as root device

In other rom(DotOS), I was succes to hide root with lastest magisk.

Any recommendation for me to can use this app in this rom ?

Turn on expanded desktop under display. To show the nav bar while it's hiding, just slide up and the nav bar will pop up for a sec. It might get annoying but you do get a little screen real estate. I am using the One Plus Gestures from the play store and works great. Just gotta get used to gestures and no nav bar.

Notification light - custom notifications

I have tried changing the settings for Notifications, Notification light, then General advanced and custom. All looks good until I exit settings and nothing works. I go back into the settings and all the changes I have made are present except the first option for Notification Light has turned off again so none of the other settings are active. What am I missing that I can preserve this setting?
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] SkinnyT:
I just set this up and it's quite a nice feature. Being able to swipe up for the app drawer from anywhere on the screen is a huge plus and reminds me of when I used to use Nova Launcher. The only thing I wish I could do is swipe down anywhere on the screen for the quick settings.

[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] themaskofwraith:
Thank you. i changed the cpu governor to onDemand and also to performance.

i also went back to stock, re flashed everything.

The performance still low. i think it has to do something with the network. Other than chrome browser, other browsers didnt work well. i can see network activity but no webpage. Even the apps take longer to login.

SOT is really good, i wish its little faster
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] spezi77:
Thanks for your feedback. I am still confused why it feels "slow" on your end. Which is your reference ROM? I am sure that the performance of PD ROM is higher than with the stock ROM.

However, we can still try to increase performance .. likely on cost of SOT. :P
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] internet6:
Same here, performance feels slow, for example to open meesenger (FB) bubble lags a lot, or opening the Gboard, daily tasks lags very frecuently
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] spezi77:
Maybe it's sailfish related or has been introduced in r6. Did you observe the same performance lack in r5?
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] futango:
It feels like it's something with r6 and sailfish as I also get a lot of lagtime and slowness opening and switching apps. I have since went back to r5 and and all the lag and slowness is gone. I did also experience random reboots on r6. 3 reboots in 2 days. My buddy has r6 on his pixel XL and doesn't experience the lag and slowness that I was getting on my OG Pixel.

I just tried it. I never use that feature but works fine for me. Lock screen, no reboot. Toggle disabled option, no reboot. I am running latest R6 with exNoShadez-v2.8.2 kernel. For me this kernel allows more sleep % in screen off for power savings.

"ARCore has stopped"

I just installed PD R5 (I did go with R5 because R6 is supposedly not as fast and stable). Coming from rooted stock (June security patch). Everything went smoothly. everything works great, thank you for this ROM. the only thing is that the ARCore is not working (Amazon app, AR stickers in camera...). Is it possible that the June stock and may PD is the problem?

Also, I keep on having no audio on calls. First on stock I thought it's software based. But it keeps on coming in PD as well. There are some posts out there and it seems to be the motherboard. Does anyone of you has experiences with this problem?

Thank you and Cheers!

Hey Pixel Dust folks,

we're back'n kickass! That's our slogan for release #7.

What's new?

* Android 8.1.0_r38 July Security Updates (OPM4.171019.021.P1)

* Updated to latest 8.1 Google Apps

* Kernel: HellSpawn v1.0 - Linux 3.18.113 & incl. July security updates

* Thrown out experimental stuff in order to recover stability & performance

* Many bugfixes (read on in 2nd post)

What could be improved (but not necessarily needs to)?

* Kernel won't enter deep sleep mode. But during my tests, it wasn't an issue which bothered me, as battery life is still normal.

* ARCore is not working (Amazon app, AR stickers in camera...)

I hope that you'll enjoy Pixel Dust Goodness!

Have a nice day

;)

Thank You very much for this update. Running r6 and now r7 (nothotfix) and excellent. I was using a different Kernel --exNoShadez_eas_v3.5_108688 and it doesn't use Deep sleep either. So this is what I'm looking for. Deep Sleep mode for most is not wanted but for me it is a requirement. I use my device differently then most, it is a "pocket phone" so battery life is my biggest requirement with custom ROM's.

I like r7 better than r6 I was getting random reboots, mostly likely for my Kernel choices. Will see how Hot Fix works, Thanks.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] spezi77:
You're welcome. You might be even more surprised by the default kernel provided by this rom. I have modified it to prolong the battery life.

Dirty flash after Factory July Boot.img re flash boot A+B. Excellent battery life for the sleep mode operation. Thanks. Still on kernel 3.18.114-HellSpawm-X-1.1 (hot fix), so can see I'm happy so far. After Dirty flash all app's data survived, now after >20 hours no reboot's either.

Could have been the exNoShadez_eas_v3.5 Kernel install...maybe... Will continue, liking having TWRP again too.

Stock on r7 update:

Running for 48 hrs Excellent battery life for my purposes......Sleep mode is a priority for me for battery life. Ambient Display for notifications, Double tap for awake, sleep (especially like the CRT display--off-- mode :) no x-rays now when I see this..... Thank You again.

I am also having this issue on stock ROM.

I've seen the threads and conclude that I likely have a verizon version (I bought the phone second hand).

Ive seen the threads where people figured out how someone was fixing this remotely, but the solution doesn't work for me.

I really want this ROM so I can conceal hotspot data, but I can't even get to the starting line. Lol
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] kkjb:
From looking at that linked post that is r3 back in Feb 2018. So can't speak from experience on THAT specific version. On r6 and r7 with my Verizon locked and unlock by (me) this thread and others___[Bounty] Verizon Pixel bootloader unlock by liriolebron____. In my case the toggle is sometimes off on first install but I always check, and toggle on. On other roms sometimes same way which I believe is the Verizon variant unlocked by myself through the above links and associated others to get unlock.

So if you can't unlock, install twrp, flash this; wrong thread to start. Look backwards to other posts.

I need some serious help...

1. I went to install RRemix Rom after unlocking, twrp and rooting. And Rom zip failed leaving me with no OS on reboot.

2. I figured we'll let me sideload it and when i reboot back into recovery I no longer have twrp and I'm at what looks like some kind of lineage os recovery :confused: than when I reboot into RRemix I let it finish booting and when it gets to the lock screen it is locked I put in my pin, not sure if it's that but it acts like it's about to unlock and it brings me back in to the lock screen again :confused:

3. So than I'm like we'll let me try sideloading pixel dust rom... now the dam thing is stuck on a bootloop if I try loading the Rom and when I try to reboot into recovery it just stays in the white Google screen.

Any ideas how to get out of all this, I'm not new at this at all, but it has been a little while and pixel seems so much more complicated.

Hi OP @ Dev, thank you for this wonderful rom (my first custom rom) installed on my Pixel, got a lot of handy features which I like them very much. However, I found that the performance of the rom is way too sluggish compared to stock rom, some lag/delay in opening apps (Facebook...instagram...) as well as keyboard opening up and down which doesn't happens previously on stock rom. Is there any fix on these annoyances as I like this rom very much I wouldnt want to try other rom/kernel :( thanks!
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] spezi77:
Hi there,

which ioscheduler do you use? Try BFQ to reduce this type of lags. However, I think that it's normal that some apps take their time on the initial app start. If an app has been cached it won't have a delay.

I also recommend you to switch CPU gov to zzmoove.

Btw, I think that the statement "is way too sluggish" is inappropriate. :P

5. Reboot to Recovery (for it to switch active slots)

Reboot to System and enjoy the Pixel Dust Goodness!

You cannot flash Magisk during the initial install. You must boot into PixelDust ROM at least once!

Did you at any point flash_all.bat to restore the stock ROM? Dirty flashing ROMs on top of eachother is a bad idea, especially if your base ROM never worked in the first place
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Versatil2010:
Yes went back to stock twice, but I got it working already. This phone is new in the sense of flashing ROMs, at least to me and the fact that you have to keep re flashing twrp after roms made it more confusing.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] KittyRgnarok:
Well let me explain it to you that way you'll understand and it'll make the process easier to remember. The reasoning for having to reflash twrp is that when you flash twrp or root it gets merged into the boot.IMG file which is pretty much exactly what it sounds like: the image from which the device boots. When you flash a ROM, the stock boot.IMG gets completely overwritten to accommodate the ROM. This means anything that was merged prior to flashing no longer exists because it is no longer the same file, because of this, you have to reflash twrp(and magisk) after flashing stock or flashing ROM.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] spezi77:
Hey there,

release eight is available now.

The highlight in r8 is in my opinion the Ambient Play feature which is imitating the Pixel 2 exclusive "Now Playing" feature. It has been originally authored by CypherOS. In Pixel Dust ROM I have added an option to configure the scan interval.

Please check it out and share your feedback!

I had been on r6 and then r7 but I found that my cell provider Project Fi would not allow Cell Data to work on US Cellular, Sprint T Mobile were ok. I tried many different combo's nothing corrected that. So was surprised with PPR1 release and been on it since.

So I just did a flash all bat of Aug OPM4 and tried to install with Project Fi sim installed First round no Cellular connection only scanning networks, never connected. Went again to Flash and found second time (still sim installed, so was waiting for Google account services) couldn't get passed Skip second PIN request, google app failure, retries, looped.
