Talkback

I edited my last message saying I setup and used talkback. When does it crash for you?

I was on the previous build for about 3 days without problems then I opened up talk back and it worked at first saying talkback is on or enabled I tried to turn it off and the phone froze then i powered it off and it kept starting up saying talk back is enabled and 3 seconds later it would restart it did this about 30 times. I finally just restored a backup thru TWRP.

THANK YOU for looking into this!

Not sure if this helps but in Google voice I can send messages thru GV using my GV # with no problems

If I try to make a call thru GV using my GV# or my carrier # it opens a pop up says calling via google voice please wait (like it normally does)and within a half second the popup goes away and its stuck at the dialer.

If I use the phone app to make a call it uses GV but the same error happens.

IF I use my carrier # thru the phone app the calls go thru.

If I tell GV to use the carrier # no luck. same error it pops up disappears and stays at the dialer

Only way to make a call is the phone app using my carrier #

I'm not using any themes but I am rooted with magisk

If this helps from prior thread

To reproduce:

Launch Google Voice

Select Google Account

Wait for crash (this behavior has been happening for the last 3+ builds. Relaunching Voice resumes setup and except 3/20 build, all works fine)

Launch Google Voice again and setup voice. Set phone to use Voice for all outgoing calls.

Launch Dialer & make a call

Dialer exits the dialing screen and no call is placed.

One issue that I have noticed consistently has been when I tap/highlight phone numbers in Chrome. Once the number is highlighted, it gives you a few options, the first of which is to call it. Whenever I select call, Chrome closes as if it is going to execute the call, but the I get a message that Phone has crashed. When I select the number and hit Copy, it works fine then I just open Dialer and paste the number in. I'm car shopping on Craigslist so it's a bit annoying to tap the number, hit the call button, and it crashes. I thought it might be a substratum theme issue, but with all overlays disabled, it still occurs. Had this issue on the original release and the March update (didn't have the ones in the middle).

Minor issue, but maybe someone else experienced this issue and has a possible solution?
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] dcfjoe:
I am on Verizon and using the latest version of this ROM, I can only receive calls, I can not make calls out though. I get the "Welcome To Verizon Wireless, We Are Unable To Complete Your Call ..."

Edit: This was with a full, clean Flash All.bat install of the April 2018 Factory image on both boot slots, which means a clean install of this ROM as well per OP instructions. I also had Magisk 16.3 on the system as well. No substratum installed at all, no custom theming, etc...

Is it ok to flash on the March security or do I need to go to stock April images? [MENTION=2699658]xanaxdroid[/MENTION]
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] xanaxdroid:
You don't ever have to go to stock images. Only if you're having trouble flashing initially. So you're okay.

Hey, I installed this ROM on a fresh install of the April OTA. I can not get heads up notifications to work. I get the notification on my status bar, but it will not display on my screen. I have tried factory reset and that does not work either. [MENTION=2699658]xanaxdroid[/MENTION]

I recently clean flashed this ROM and after 48 hours, the Download Manager refuses to download and update any apps. Already cleared cache/data on the DM but no use.

This is the same problem that I had with the stock ones ever since updating to Oreo. Was hoping switching to a custom ROM might help.

Maybe it's a kernel issue?

UPDATE 04/11: I clean flashed two more times and the issue is gone (for now). Will update this if there's any issues with the DM.

I don't know if the is related to Google voice or what, but when I tell assistant to call someone, it says calling and shows the phone icon thing like it is calling someone but doesn't use the phone app to actually call. Does anyone else have this problem and is there a fix?

[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] xanaxdroid:
I'm not sure what would have caused that. It looks like they use some weird method to load amazon messaging from their dex files for some reason, but I'll have to look into it. Is this from a clean flash?

Edit: I may have found the problem. I'll upload a build later for you to try.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MRL3GS:
Yeah it was a clean flash. Let me know when and I will give it a try
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] bkkzak:
Just wanted to chime in.. I'm having the same issues with Google Voice on the Benzo 4/21 build. I normally have all international calls transferred to GV, but I had to switch it to "No" under GV settings for the regular Dialer to even make a call. Voicemail still retrieves and I still get notifications for missed calls and VM but I just can't call with GV. I didn't have this issue on the April build of crDroid (LOS based). I have no idea what is causing it, but for now I've just got GV off.

If anyone finds a fix, or sees other threads with the same issue, maybe let the rest of this forum know.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] njinstantkarma:
GV Issue:

The only workaround I have found until this issue is resolved is to join the GV Beta program. Then you can make calls thru GV over data using wifi and I think mobile. It will then show your GV# but half the time i have a dropped call. Still in Beta but at least it shows calls going thru my GV#. Hoping Benzo can get this fixed.

Try using Hangouts dialer instead of phone dialer works to make outing calls using your GV number.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] bkkzak:
So I wonder if the issue is related to VoWifi (aka wifi calling)? Is anybody able to turn on VoWifi?

[MENTION=2699658]xanaxdroid[/MENTION]

Thanks for the rom man, I really Appreciate the fresh take on rom development you have. I feel like most of the other custom roms out there are just various iterations of the same thing, but yours is always unique and I appreciate that. Thanks!

Is wifi calling working for you? I am on Verizon and can't get it to work, but I have had it work on other roms. I wonder if wifi calling has to do with the Google Voice issues.

I clean flashed (came from another rom so I flashed factory images which wiped data, then I wiped accordingly and flashed your rom). Magisk 16.2, no xposed or anything else

[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Chimaira33:
One thing I've noticed is when the ambient display is triggered the power button won't work to fully wake up the display. You have to double tap the screen to fully wake it up.

Is this intentional? :confused: I'm not one to ask feature requests but I feel like if the normal behavior was put back in it would be a lot better.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] xanaxdroid:
No it's not intentional and I don't have that problem. It works like it's supposed to for me.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Chimaira33:
Well crap :eek:
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] xanaxdroid:
I'm gonna be uploading a new build tonight or tomorrow because I forgot to change the build id in the last one. Maybe you'll have better luck with that one since it also has a change with the ambient display layout, but without knowing more about your setup/installed apps etc I can't really guess what's going on.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] njinstantkarma:
Have you been able to troubleshoot the Google voice issue for outgoing phone calls. Bringing the issue up because it used to work on prior builds but it has been an issue for the last 2 or 3 builds. Thank you for all your work.

Does anyone know if you can update this room to the current version without flashing back to stock and formatting apps and data? I'd like the update to the new version (running January 11 version) but every time I can never get it to flash properly without formatting everything and flashing back to stock. If anyone has an answer, that'd be great. Also, if anyone has a free tool (like legit free) that can back up apps+data, SMS, photos, music, downloads and everything else (like a transfer tool without another phone), send it my way. Thanks!
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] mugor:
Is it just me or are we unable to change the display brightness from the display settings menu? When I click on brightness level nothing happens. On stock android a pop up appears with the slider.

Also it looks like the implementation of the brightness slider in quick settings is a little buggy. When pulling down the notification drawer you can see the frames aren't smooth. Is it not possible to stick with the stock android implementation of the brightness slider as in the pixel xl factory image?

Apart from these two things it's a great rom.

Really liking this ROM so far. My only issue right now is that when trying to turn on Wi-Fi Calling, I get "Emergency Address management has stopped" and then nothing happens. I do have all the provisions set in the *#*#4636#*#* menu. I'm on Verizon. Might anyone have any ideas?

Other small findings to report:

- Volume up to exit Do Not Disturb does not work

- Maybe I'm ignorant to this ambient display, but I don't seem to be able to unlock the phone while it's on? I have to wait for the screen to dim again and then unlock it.

EDIT: FWIW, phone calls started dropping to the point where the phone was unusable. Persisted through reflashing ROM and wiping data. Just decided to move up to Android P DP2 and everything is good again.

Hi ,i just cant get it to boot my setup is

flash stock oreo flash all.bat to slot B

flash stock oreo flash all.bat to slot A

boot to twrp and on slot A and flash the rom then twrp.zip

reboot and am on slot B and geting sistem UI errors black screen bluetooth stopping etc.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] dictionary:
What I do .. Is after you've flashed Oreo to both .. And fast boot boot twrp .. I check which slot I'm on. If I'm on A, I go back, then wipe dalvik, data, and system. I go to reboot, and click slot B. Then I reboot recovery. Now you'll be booted into Slot B. Proceed to flash ROM then twrp, and reboot.

When you flash a ROM, it flashes to the opposite slot that you're in.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Phalanx7621:
Either fastboot to recovery or if twrp is already installed, boot straight to recovery. Wipe data, system, cache. Flash benzo. Flash twrp (optional). Reboot to system. That' all that's necessary to get it running. . If you want to use another kernel or magisk, reboot to recovery ( fastboot or straight to twrp depending on if you flashed it) flash magisk. Reboot into aystem. If you want to flash another kernel, boot back into recovery again, flash kernel, flash magisk again. Profit. IF you're like me and use Ex Shadez, you can't flash twrp, and thus have to use fastboot to boot into recovery.

[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Phalanx7621:
Actually, I had that same issue. What fixed it for me was: completely fresh reinstall, and on the setup screen, when it says, "Google Assistant already knows your voice"or whatever, hit Retrain Voice option, Retrain it, continue with setup. Restart phone. After boot, hold home button, listen to explanation and ask her to tell you a joke or something. That should kick it into working order.

Anyone else have issues with the fingerprint unlock just stop working after the screen has been off for a while. No haptic feedback nor does the screen come on for me. Like its in a deep sleep.
