sounds like battery going bad. pixel 1 is getting old. nothing to do with the rom.

^^^ that's why. provide logs to whoever made that.

[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Poebat:
Yeah, it seems to be present in LOS itself. On stock, my M9 and Pixel correctly calculate 0%, whereas they die above 0% on LOS. Not really a big deal, you're not losing battery life, although running your battery down to 0 is not great.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] dcshallot:
Now I'm not sure whether apps or system cause battery drain. So I'm planning to replace a battery later. It can just work for a few hours. You know, the Chinese apps always want to wake it up to do sync. And I use greenify to optimize.

Are there any people who can help with the following? I had tried the steps from the lineageos site, but I ended up in bootloops several times, no matter what I tried. Then I followed the steps in the starting post of this thread, but now the pixel seems bricked. After the last step (reboot) the screen went blank, and now it will not start up, no matter what. Battery was at 71% when I hit the reboot in TWRP, so it can't be out of power. Any ideas?

Hold down power and down volume for about 30 seconds and that should bring you into bootloader
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] thebst:
I had to hold it a bit longer (about 60 seconds, but I suppose it's how fast you count) and I have a bootloader now, thank you. I will try to flash again and see if I can get it to work again. Thanks a lot!

Flash the last stock 8.1.0 image first, dont forger to remove the -w in the flash-all script if you dont want to format your internal memory ;)
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] projekt8e:
Recently, I've been having issues with a process called mediaex, which appears to be storage related, and it running at 100% cpu usage on one core endlessly. I even let it go one night all night while plugged in to see if it was actually processing anything and it's not. It will kill a full battery in a matter of hours if unnoticed. With the process killed, the phone will last 2 - 3 days with light usage. It's easy to notice when it happens though because the phone is quite warm to the touch when it's stuck.

I can kill the process via termux after I've force stopped "Media Storage" from the system apps. After that it's fine for long periods of time. I can use the phone and download files. However, if I disable the Media Storage app, storage access appears limited. A screenshot would even fail, which makes sense and is more for context. It has only happened after I migrated from the January build to the February builds of recent. All of my installs are clean installs as OTA updating with microg presents problems. It is present 100% of the time on fresh installs that I tried, which was about 10 or 12 just to make sure.

Does anyone have any idea what might be causing this now all of a sudden?

Thanks

Edit - It turns out that I had a corrupt file. I wasn't able to delete it while the OS was running and had to remove it with the file manager in TWRP.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] thetallguy:
Android is usually forwards compatible i.e. you can upgrade and the new version will do what it needs to make the stuff in /data compatible. It is NOT backwards compatible. The old version will not know how to convert stuff in /data to an old format. So giving advice to not format /data in this case is wrong. It may cause problems.

To the original question, if you are running stock standard Google's version 9 you can install LOS 15.1 (Android 8.1) as long as you use the bootloader, vendor and modem from the first post, and you follow the instructions. Don't forget to write to both slots. You will need to format /data. So make sure that you have copied off all your photos, videos, SMS messages and anything else you want to keep.

[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] thetallguy:
Hi. I followed the instructions in the original post but needed to note two things. First, format data not wipe. Make sure that if you have anything important that it is copied elsewhere or backed up. Second, after installing MindtheGapps I needed to swap the slots. I got a black screen before swapping the slots.

Hi. My Pixel XL is now my daily driver since early January. I am now on the 14 Feb release via OTA. Everything is working for me on my cellular service provider and my home and work WiFi. Everything I care about is working. It is bug free enough for me.

N.B. I am not rooted and I have no changed kernel, just LineageOS and Mind The GAPPS from the original post.

As I cleaned the los installation, from nightly 0224. The gapps pack from 1# post is no longer available. Google play services keep crashing and I can't set up the phone. Then I downloaded a gms v15 manually. It stopped crashing and play store worked fine. But contacts couldn't sync anymore.

I wiped all then use open gapps nano, it still crashed, but after installing the gms apk manually, everything normal.

[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Crumplet:
Awww ya OK um ya I was looking for a different build number but as far as I know I could not find it except from another alternative website. You'll have to search for it I guess on the web.Anyway I can't confirm weather bug free or not cuase I am using the Pixel xl. I just was read through the tread about sailfish from other posts. You'll have to read this thread fully to really find a good starting point.

How is performance and battery life on 16.0 versus 15.1 on these devices? If I'm choosing which to install on that basis?
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] adm1jtg:
Is there really any choice... with 16 being official all support for 15 will likely cease, no updates, no security patches and no fixes for any issues.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] eater99999:
The blog announcement says "LineageOS 15.1 will remain under active development." Version 14 received support and fixes throughout the lifetime of 15, so I'd be surprised if 15 is suddenly abandoned now that 16 is official.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] mysticauls:
Can i follow these instructions from stock 9.0?
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] thetallguy:
When I installed LineageOS 15.1 I did install in place of stock 9.0. That was several months ago though.

I believe that there will be no more releases of LOS 15.1 for Pixel/Pixel XL so you need to be sure you want to use it. There will be no more security fixes etc. LOS 16.0 is now the official supported version.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] mysticauls:

Lineage will continue to support Oreo for a while, they don't stop support for older versions just because a new one is out, in fact, they usually support 2-3 cycles at a time IIRC. They have a very large team with lots of maintainers for various devices.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] thetallguy:
Both 15.1 and 16 have been working well for me.

But for security I want to keep getting the security fixes released with 16.

---------- Post added at 10:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:02 PM ----------

Yes you are partially right. The source code does get updates from Android security bulletins etc. But in most cases the official builds are done only for the most recent version. If you look at the LOS downloads for Pixel and Pixel XL there are builds for only 16 for the last month.

Turns out it was an error in the opengapps zip. It wasn't detecting that there was a front facing camera, so it wouldn't install the google faceunlock apk.

The error is here: https://github.com/opengapps/opengapps/blob/master/scripts/inc.installer.sh#L1490

It was only looking for the file in the system partition. On the marlin, it's in the vendor partition.

Is it possible to provide other opengapp packages for use with this rom? eg micro\mini\full? Personally id prefer a 'mini' opengapps so the key aosp apps are replaced by the more up to date play store versions. :)
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] razorloves:
no, sorry. This isn't a 'mashup' rom. It's pure lineage, as if it were an official nightly.

I think it's best to wait for opengapps to start making 8.1 gapps.

There's a good reason opengapps hasn't even started making them yet. In order to make a mini gapps, you would pull all the needed apk's from a stock rom. Then you would have to deodex them. The problem is, there's no way to deodex a lot of 8.1 google apk's right now. The old way fails.

Installed this ROM with no issues, came from another 8.1 ROM - thank you for the detailed instructions in the OP! Has anyone been able to get Viper4Android to work?

It will say that it works in the photos app, the only way to really tell is to record a large video, and check storage before and after the backup.

[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] mostyle:
Awesome activity!

First, thank you for being prompt with the security package update!

Can't tell you enough how thankful I am for this ROM.

A couple of questions to the thread:

1) I noticed that the call block is gone. Upon doing research I found that this is LoS specific. Can the functionality be restored by using a different dialer/contacts or is it a feature that is more woven into the OS?

2) With regards to the dialer/contacts, I prefer Google's implementation of these along with the calendar. Can I just pull the desired APKs from the market and replace the corresponding APKs in the latest LoS zip before pushing it to the device to install?

Again, cheers for the development.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Namelesswonder:
The app will always say you have unlimited original quality uploads if you have a Pixel phone, but if the ROM you are on doesn't do the proper "stuff" then your uploads will count against your quota. Happened on invisiblek's LOS.

I'll be installing this ROM to check and see if it works, and if it doesn't then I think I remember seeing a Magisk module that enables the unlimited original quality uploads, but I haven't tested it yet.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] razorloves:
1. It's not gone. Open the phone app, then settings, then call blocking. Or you can do it from call history, select call, then block number.

2. You can install any google app from the playstore, then go to settings -> apps & notifications and disable the aosp/lineage one that comes with the rom. You don't want to do it the way you mentioned because as soon as you install a rom update, your changes will be gone.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] razorloves:
Thanks for the warning about this. I didn't know about it. I've only had the marlin for about a month, so i'm still learning a bit. I just tested it and you're right, even though it says, "Photos & videos uploaded from your Pixel get unlimited free storage at original quality", it is still using your storage.

But good news... I found the cause and the fix. It will be in the next nightly. :D

I'll try to have one ready for you all in the next couple hours.

New rom i just built :good:

lineage-15.1-20180111-UNOFFICIAL-marlin.zip

Instructions:

If updating from my previous build:

1. Reboot into recovery then select the other slot then reboot to recovery. Details on this step are here.

2. Flash the new rom zip.

3. Flash the twrp zip linked in first post.

4. Reboot to recovery. This will reboot you into the other slot, where the new rom was just installed.

5. Flash the gapps zip linked in the first post.

6. You're done. Select 'reboot system'.

If installing for the first time or coming from a different rom, follow steps in first post.

Major changes since last build:

The power menu settings are working now, but it's still in development. there's some alignment issues. bare with it please.

Shake and flip actions were added for snoozing or dismissing alarm.

Unlimited storage for original quality photos & videos in the google photos app is now actually working.

The partial screenshot feature was added to the power menu.

Face unlock now works. (This was fixed in gapps)

Just so we are on the same page. What are the benefits of this ROM?

Does it have the ability to run the terminal as root and access the binaries within /bin and usr/bin. Create our own #!bash syslink codes, can we edit /etc config files and more importantly can the hostname be change so our raspberry pi honey pots leases aren't filled with polluted "android-macaddresses" host names.

I thought the stock rom was Vanilla anyway with consistent security updates, plus Nova to skin it and termux running with SuperSU. Just happens to have major restrictions and stupid partition scheme!
