Is there a way to go from ElementalX to Snoke on Stock without wiping all my data?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Badger50:
Very easy to do.

1. Fastboot or with twrp, flash stock boot.img.

2. Flash twrp.zip

3. Flash new custom kernel zip

4. Flash magisk zip.

5. Reboot, done.

No data is lost if your just changing kernels :good:

[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] EMcTx:
I was wondering that myself.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] davall:
T est and R elease maybe?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] DespairFactor:
T is technically a test, yet the difference is a scheduler reset, so it won't have any changes to EAS(it will use what Google has released thus far for the device).

[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] MrBrady:

Did you try yet? I'm putting 8.1 on this evening.

BTW, Thanks [MENTION=5169465]DespairFactor[/MENTION] for the kernel, it works great.

Now, i'm back to trying to figure out root on here since i'm too impatient to wait.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] DespairFactor:
I don't have a device to brick yet, so I can't figure out root, I hear 8.1 won't work with 8.0 kernel source at all, had someone try with stock and my image.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Megaflop666:
Gotcha! Thanks for the update on the.

If I can find a way to get root I'll let you know. So far I'm crapping out with magisk and SuperSU.

[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Megaflop666:
I'll double check but I think I read over in another thread that a few people had tried it; and then I'll give it a go anyway. [emoji23]
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] DespairFactor:
They likely tried to use the patcher on the app, not do it manually.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Megaflop666:
Plan on. I'm sitting down for some nachos and a rueben, and then do homework with my youngest; and then I'll be on it.. probably around 830/9est.

Is this kernel going to end up as nice as despair kernel was on my n6?

[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Badger50:
I'm using R27. The "T" version must have been uploaded last evening. However, it should work fine for you :good:
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] krzyzguy69:

Hey, I switched to Pixel 2 XL. If you remember, I was after you to build a kernel for 8.1 to support pie on 6p. Good to see you here too.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] i42o:
Yeah man I went from a Nexus 6p to a pixel XL and had no that's support for Uber ROM on that phone and then I went from that to the pixel 2 XL and I'm surprised at how there isn't much development going on for it at the moment as far as lineage aospa and other ROMs it's a really nice phone it works great out of the box so I think that's what it is

Tried flashing in exkm as well as twrp. Same results.

Am i missing something ?

Edit : I didnt flash the twrp/magisk zip, i just booted from twrp. Is that the reason ?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] DespairFactor:

Over another kernel.. I'm cleaning things up now. Guessing I should not have done that..
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Badger50:
Correct! My method, with whatever kernel switch is..

Flash the stock boot.img

Flash the twrp installer zip

Flash your new kernel

Boot up to OS

Back to twrp and flash magisk :good:
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] jbarcus81:

[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Donric13:
You can extract the boot.img from factory image and then flash it through twrp. I myself flash stock boot.img always through fastboot (both slots) and then boot into twrp and flash twrp.zip and then boot into twrp and flash magisk (without booting into system before). Pay attention to the slots your flashing....
