How are people finding the update to P, latest TWRP, Magisk, kernel? Any showstoppers? Not sure whether to upgrade or wait a bit more. Just got back from vacation so I'm behind the news.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] def-g:
PIE is really good. Neat little tweeks and redesigned Interface. TWRP and MAGISK still buggy. Upgrading is worth it IMHO.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] ridobe:
P is great. TWRP is well, TWRP. Magisk is fine as long as you use the recent build by [MENTION=6842057]nathanchance[/MENTION] ( or from the snapshots thread) and the kernel is 10 minutes old so, yeah.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] kevtrysmoddin:
Also substratum is working with APK v998 but I would read up on the issues twrp has just in case you do update and run into issues
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] def-g:
Can Franco only flash FLASH? Can it do Sultan's? If so would you have to use TWRP to reflash MAGISK?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] nathanchance:
It can flash any AnyKernel2 zip, which Sultan uses, so yes, it can.

No, you can reinstall Magisk through the app before rebooting.

1. Install the kernel via Manual Flasher in Franco's app (select "Just Flash", not "Flash & Reboot").

2. Go into Magisk Manager > Install > Direct Installation.

3. Reboot and profit.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] sirxdroid:
I'm still on stock Oreo July update + Flash v2.55 and noticed (at the worst time, during vacation) that the camera app is very slow to start. Any ideas? Kernel or ROM or some other problem? Thanks.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Az Biker:
When you're ready to jump on PIE, check the 9xx link in my sig, all links and easy steps right there.

I like 9xx factory image enough (rooted, w/ cust kernel & twrp) to not want to go back to DU 8.1 (until they drop 9xx) :D
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] peterlee928:
1) p is solid. dramatic improvement over o? cant say that as of yet.

2) no xposed framework available for p (in case u use this)

3) if using p2xl, quirks exist with upgrading and rooting via magisk... but lots of content exists on how to root successfully.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] D-m-x:
I had this too and it annoyed me. I upgraded dirty to Pie and it's fine again.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] ilal2ielli:
In case anyone was interested, still works perfectly with 8.1 (Nitrogen OS).
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] def-g:
Thanks Nathan. Was getting tired of removing Security to flash in TWRP. Will give Franco ah Go.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] buffal0b1ll:
There's 2 other ways to flash zips in TWRP without removing security also:

1. TWRP install zip from OTG flash drive

2. adb push xxxx.zip /cache/ and TWRP install it from there
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] def-g:
Yeah. Familiar with adb. Not the OTG though. Franco FAR easier. TWRP will get straightened out eventually.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Haunt3r:
I did this and none of my magisk modules worked on reboot. So I removed them and after reinstalling them they kept failing installation. I had to go back through twrp and reinstall everything after using magisk uninstaller.

Disable navbar magisk modules still doesn't work even though it says successfully installed. Had to edit build.prop to remove it again.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] 39emfive:
I'm having an issue getting past my passcode pattern after flashing 3.02 through Franco. Anyone else experiencing this?

Edit: Flashed stock image and was able to get through, reflashed 3.02 and got stuck in passcode once more. Maybe something to do with Magisk 16.7?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] smallvan:
I had the same experienced after flashed 3.02 by FK. Rebooted twice still could not through the passcode pattern. Then, powered down and rebooted, resumed normal.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] joetheshmo:
Magisk 1671 or 1674?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] smallvan:
Magisk 1671

3. adb sideload "nameoftezip"
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] cd993:
I could be wrong here and could just be me, but is the fingerprint unlock that tiny bit slower on the latest release?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] sublimaze:
To me, fingerprint unlock on Android 9.0 seems slightly faster than the Oreo 8.1 update, but not as fast as when I first got the phone (before Google nerfed it to fix the screen flash bug). I also get more "fingerprint not recognized" errors now. Maybe my sensor just needs a good cleaning.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] cd993:
Interesting to hear about 9.0 (I'm still on Oreo). I think its probably just me as I doubt anythings changed re fingerprint coding in anyway.

[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] State.of.mind:
I like P . I used to use Xposed faithfully, and I'm not missing it too much
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] sublimaze:
I cleaned my fingerprint scanner and it still lags. Like I said before, it is marginally faster than 8.1, but not nearly as fast as when I first got the phone. I do not use Always On Display, so that may make a difference.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] def-g:
Try Sultan Kernel. Noticable faster fingerprint wake up.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] pvtjoker42:
I'm ok with Pie, but i do miss a couple features from xposed/gravitybox. show stoppers? no. nice tweaks and features? you bet.

Now I just need to find some free black substratum themes that have been updated and I'll be set, for now! :cool:
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Az Biker:
I just paid the $1.99 for Pitch Black and it was effortless to apply.

It's a fantastic, thorough black theme, worked perfectly the first time.

There is a specific Substratum apk you have to use for PIE.

Worth every cent, IMHO :D
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] pvtjoker42:
I'll try that theme, as I just used a different one and it sent my phone into a bootloop. had to flash-all without -w to get it to boot back up (since twrp won't decrypt to flash the substratum rescue)

I did find the 998 substratum version from apk-mirror, but thanks for the link just in case. :good:
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] srqrob:
Two interesting points. Upgraded to 3.02 with the Franco utility. After applying the kernel, I shut down and when I restarted, got a one time big G boot loop. On restart, all apparently OK.

Also, after the upgrade to 9.0, get an "invalid" response to Safety Net check, but Android Pay still works. Go figure.. All else OK with 9.0, Magisk and Kernel. Thanks all of you for your work for us.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] joetheshmo:
Use 1674 magisk posted in this thread. With regards to safety net, the API changed so no safety net checking apps are working
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Badger50:
Which is why I always keep a copy of the rescue zip in my data folder. Or remove screen luck until I'm sure a theme will work :good:
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] nathanchance:
Update to 3.03!

I'd never had substratum cause bootloops over the years, so I was caught unprepared :laugh:

But I now have the rescue.zip on my otg flash drive, in case i run into issues again.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] jamiejames:
Same here. I sent you a PM. if you get a minute I would really appreciate it.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] srqrob:
These anomalies occurred using Nathan's linked 1674 Magisk.

That's good info, thanks for the heads up! :good::cool:
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Triscuit:
Just a heads up for people looking for Substratum 998, there is a telegram channel that has a bot that builds daily with new commits. Substratum CI is the name of it.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
Or you can simply go to APKMirror and download it there. Just make sure to disable updates in the Play Store if you are signed up for the beta
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] CyberpodS2:
Do you need or want anyone trying this on 8.1??
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Triscuit:
So you're saying the one from apk mirror is updated daily with new commits? Because it looks like the latest one on apk mirror is from from July....
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] def-g:
How would you flash this version of MAGISK without using TWRP? MAGISK install only gets you 16.171 I think?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] D-m-x:
Just flash it like a Module in Magisk Manager. No need for TWRP.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
Nope. I'm saying the official version (998) from the Substratum team on the Play Store works here with no issues. So perhaps I'm not understanding the need for the unofficial builds.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] pa.pn2:
Anyone who uses nathans magisk version.does magisk hide work for you? I always get a notification in skygo app that rooted device's are not supported.skygo is hided in magisk settings...
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] cwalker0906:
The official version in play store is 999 and it doesn't work
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
Perhaps you should try actually reading my post before replying. In parenthesis I put 998 following the words "official version". I did that to clarify which version I was referring to, since both 998 and 999 are official versions.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] srqrob:
I was not clear I guess. Was trying to say I already had that Magisk build installed, not that there was any problem.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] State.of.mind:
My phone seems to randomly reboot, and I'm not sure why. Does anyone else have this problem? I only use magisk and a couple of other modules
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] kevtrysmoddin:
Try removing the modules and seeing if that helps I don't use any modules and have no issues with random reboots
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] State.of.mind:
Thanks
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] jrhatfield:
Yup, random reboots here as well. Only module enabled in Magisk is Busybox
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] State.of.mind:
It's probably Magisk
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Badger50:
You need this version.

Does the latest version of the Kernel still work on Android 8.1? Or is it only for Android 9?

I'm still on the 5th of June Security Update.

Thank you in return for the reply.

Upgraded to Pie and the camera app starts quickly now. Thanks.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Sui77:
I think the slow start is linked to activated HDR+ advanced
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] D-m-x:
I don't think so. From the start I had HDR+ activated and the slow start came with July Sec Patches on the last O Build. Now on Pie it's fast as ever.

Hello, I'm quite new to the A/B devices so I have few questions about that. I have the Pixel 2 XL with the 9.0 factory image, rooted with Magisk and Elemental X kernel. Now i want to change to Flash Kernel.

-How I know if I'm flashing the ZIP in partition A or B?

-I assume that if I flash new kernel, I have to reflash magisk
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Badger50:
The kernel will flash to whatever current slot your on. Really nothing to worry about. If you want to switch kernels, it easy to do using the EXKM app, or by flashing it in twrp. You don't need to flash magisk again with either kernel since both developers have commits that detect magisk. So, flash away :good:

Great! Thanks for the fast reply!

Anybody have issues with TiBackup? Mine won't even open on Pie. I'm sure it's probably an app problem and not kernel, but just wanted to see if i'm alone or if others are having issues since making the jump to Pie. Thanks.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] peterlee928:
im not having issues... p2xl, stock rom 9.0, magisk nathan version 1675, busybox stericson 1.29.2 with ibuprofen's binary installer.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] pvtjoker42:
Thanks, I'll have to dig around some more and see what i can figure out. see if maybe substratum is causing it to fall down..

uninstalled the app, booted to twrp and killed cache, reinstalled, all is well!
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] pkgnex:
Nathan,

I've noticed some performance slow-down starting with 3.02 and still present in 3.03 - nothing major, just apps don't open as fast anymore. I had a random reboot yesterday, too, for the first time in a looooong time.

This is all relative to 3.01, and I haven't changed the ROM (stock) or Magisk in the interim.

Sorry - no logs, but I did see Sultan just made some "memory management" improvements to his kernel yesterday based on others having similar sounding issues on his kernel, so perhaps one of the things you took from him in 3.02 has been updated?

I know this post is less than helpful, but if I get another reboot, I'll at least pull the logs.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Jiggs82:
Are you on Android 9? Because that could be the issue for some slow down as well...
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] pkgnex:
I am... but I've been on 9 since DP2 and I just started noticing it with Flash 3.02.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Jiggs82:
Well then maybe cuz I do have the slow downs too and ive noticed it recently but then again I've read online that some users experience lags etc ever since official Android 9 pie so who knows lol
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] CyberpodS2:
For whatever this is worth, I just read somewhere that some owners of complete stock 2XL phones have experienced slowdowns recently. 3 possible causes including one that might require an RMA according to Google engineers. The article was light on specific details about root cause though... Maybe someone else can verify I wasn't having a hallucination. Lol

Artem Russakovskii of Android Police had a Google engineer and PR person come to his house to deal with that problem. They did an RMA and took the problem phone. Here is an update (no solution yet).

https://plus.google.com/u/0/+ArtemRussakovskii/posts/NhEqLQEWrvt
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] derekr44:
Crud. Mine's been acting up lately.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Pkt_Lnt:
Check the link honeybadger posted above. Seems Google is replacing them, and we have a longer warranty after some of the early release issues (though I experienced none of them). You could call them and see if hey will issue an RMA.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] bobbarker2:
Just don't expect a new phone as a replacement. Mine has been having issues that could only be from hardware and when I called I was only offered a refurbished phone (could be a phone that was returned or someone else's fixed up phone) and I've had nothing but bad experience with refurbished phone replacements.

I talked to a supervisor for 15 minutes and was told they only send a new phone as a replacement if it's the second time you have had to RMA, that it was a policy he can do nothing to change. Maybe this bad press will have changed that policy or maybe I just got the the 'wrong' support people.

If someone puts in a RMA and gets offered a new phone let me know so I can try again!
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] pj1000:
Strange Brew, indeed. Persistent charging symbol (the one with the lightning bolt through it) comes on when the phone is turned off and begins charging. Instead of the first charging symbol morphing into a plainer version and then disappearing while charging continues, the charging symbol remains the entire time while the phone it charging. Burn in concerns? When this happens, the phone won't turn on without a 15 second hard reboot. Last, I can repeat this problem. Charging happens normally after I reinstall the latest 9.0 image with latest TWRP and Nathan's latest installed. This problem only happens after either the latest Magisk or Nathan's Magisk is installed and running. After the Magisk install, it happens every time I shut down the phone and begin charging. It's hard to imagine it's just my phone but I've searched and haven't seen anything about this that I can find. Any ideas? Thanks.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] nezebilo:
I recently had slow downs after factory resetting my phone. They went away when I flashed the factory image without -w because I had a bootloop. Maybe you should try that?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] def-g:
I got it also. Your not alone. Anything above MAGISK 16.6 causes this. I work around it by charging with phone on. Then turning off once done.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] infamousvincci:
Hey Badger,

Im on flash kernel right now. Is it possible to flash a different kernel on top of flash? For example elementalx or sultan through ex kernel app?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Donric13:
I flashed sultans after flash through francos app. Only problem was after that to install magisk 1674 properly. Had to sideload magisk in twrp after flashing kernel. Everything works fine. So i didn't have to remove pin to flash a new kernel. Think it should work because flash uses stock dtbo.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] thereal_bigjake:
You could have just flashed magisk in magisk manager after flashing the kernel in fk ?
