Can anyone confirm that roads and lines are showing in maps in latest release?
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] :
Yes
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Soooperstar:
Anybody else having issues with apps crashing or is it just me?
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Gordietm:
G

I've noticed that myself this afternoon. I'm thinking the Substratum themes are not playing well with the settings in the new update. I have to reboot to stop all the apps from crashing. Are you using a theme now?
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Beachbum2049:
Same here. Cleaned all installed themes and it still happens. I clean flashed + tibu restore with data, going to try clean flash with play store restore next.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Soooperstar:
I got the samething with and without Substratum
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Beachbum2049:
I'm also going to try to flash the latest stock image. I had issues when the room updated to the January security update. Flashing the matching stock image fixed it.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Soooperstar:
Let us know if that works
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] :
It's the gapps packages I believe
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Beachbum2049:
Well, that may have done it:

Backed up internal SD to a computer, removed lock screen and google account.

Flashed Feb image including SD wipe.

Booted phone but didn't log in, let it settle.

Reboot, fastboot boot TWRP. Flash TWRP. Reboot into TWRP.

Factory Reset, flash Benzo & TWRP.

Fully boot & log in. Allow google to restore all apps.

Reboot & flash magisk & boot.

Restore a few apps data with TiBu.

Flash ARISE

So far, so good!

I have a repeatable crash when trying to go into Settings -> Benzo Extras -> Status Bar -> Statusbar Items

https://pastebin.com/MfLGxRS9

Edit: magisk just crashed. And my phone hard rebooted to bootloader during a phone call. I got a log but it's hyoooge since it occurred right after booting up. If anyone thinks it's useful I can post it somewhere.

Edit 2: Shazzam crash:

https://pastebin.com/KhixSieE

Edit 3: Dirty flashed ROM to test without Magisk & ARISE. Same issue...back to 20180201 build.

EDIT 4: issue not Benzo related.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] :
Status bar icons f/c here is log
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] :
Looking good though
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] muppetmaster916:
What's your setup?
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] :
Wallpaper I threw together omoro icon pack 19 substratum theme I changed a bunch more stuff after that is if anybody wants wall I'll share
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] muppetmaster916:
Yes please.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] :
There u go
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] :
I've since adjusted to dark matter icon pack. Biohazard theme. Happy with finished product for now. Also using flick launcher. My current fav
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] seangeezy12:
I'm getting force close on IG. What's app. Snapchat. Etc. Anybody else experience and of so a possible fix?
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] liam_davenport:
Logcat or didn't happen ;)
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] :
I think it's a substratum issues cause when it happens to me it cause I'm using themes if I undo them and reboot it's fine
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] muppetmaster916:
Yeah substratum is a mega pain. Looks great, but all the updating and unapplying/reapplying is ridiculous.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Soooperstar:
Did it to me without substratum. I could never get a log because everything would start crashing randomly and the only way to get out was a reboot
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Beachbum2049:
EDIT: issue not Benzo related.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] amirage:
I'm getting FC in settings app when I'm on Benzon extra -> Statusbar -> statusbar items...Any help?
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] king_david43:
The crashes might be because of root. Dirty flash without root and see if you still get crashes.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] anderson79:
the same thing happens to me, it also happened to me that I said systei i did not answer I could not use the phone for anything I turned it off and went into recovery and asked me to pin the twrp and I did not use it or pin or trace, reboot and it worked fine but i want know why this problem thanks
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] amirage:
BTW, I don't have root...I haven't installed Magisk yet! Btw, is this setting working for you?
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] king_david43:
I flashed it today without root and I got the crashes also. It started it out fine at first but then things started crashing for no reason. I thought it was root that caused it because I had a similar problem on my 6p and routing was the cause but it doesn't seem to be the case here.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] guardianali:
I tried this Rom, pixel, and the new Fire one. In all 3, install goes great. Magisk works great. No issues.

Soon as I install Xposed systemless from the magisk downloads, it installs fine. And even works!!

BUT, the xposed module slows down the phone ALOT. Soon as i disable it, back to full speed. Is this a known issue?
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Soooperstar:
Why are you posting this in all Rom threads? Xposed has nothing to do with the Roms. You should asking the Xposed dev
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] muppetmaster916:
It's also common knowledge that xposed is buggy, not supported by rom devs for that reason, and is a trade off on performance for customization.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Soooperstar:
Exactly!
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] kingbri:
I have had 0 problems with xposed installed system and systemlessly. It only breaks snapchat (which is a shame), but it shouldn't slow down your phone. Maybe it's the custom kernel?
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] guardianali:
Because the Xposed thread is a general thread for ever single person on every combination of ROMs and Phones. I am having a specific issue that is related to THIS phone on THIS Rom. If you dont want to help, then dont reply.

I asked in case there was a known issue with THIS particular rom and how its built that may effect xposed which the xposed dev would have no idea about because he didnt build THIS rom. I thought a FRIENDLY person might have had a similar issue on this Rom and could give a hint at where to look for a fix.

I tried two threads cause I tried 3 different roms and at least the other one had NICE people willing to at least give me a direction to go

"Some roms handle xposed alot better I found it works best on stock and lineage. Had same issue as u"

^that is one of the reasons why some people also pick some roms over others...cause the users and threads are friendlier and helpful instead of sarcastic elitist asses.

Based on his KIND recommendation, Im going to try lineage now.

Thanks for you "help" though...

---------- Post added at 05:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:23 PM ----------

Thats another good suggestion. Thank you for you helpfulness and KIND reply. I'll try swapping kernels and see if that helps since I do like the Rom...
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] guardianali:
Its not common knowledge that you trade performance for customization. Once you get it running well, there is no hit on performance. As tons of people will attest to. When issues do arise, its a matter of tweaking, tinkering and WORKING WITH OTHER FELLOW ANDROID ENTHUSIASTS as comrades to help fix it and to help each other out. That is what this community is about.

As for rom devs, I wasnt asking the ROM dev..nor bothering him with a bunch if messages and private notes. I asked in the general thread to the USERS....in case someone else had a similar issue on THIS ROM and may have had luck in finding a fix. If that doesnt apply to you, then dont reply. Thanks though...
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Soooperstar:
Well as the other gentleman said it has been said on many threads that xposed can potentially cause issues. What I'm saying if it's happening to you on this and other Roms, this is not the place. That's why they have a question and answer forum
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] muppetmaster916:
A. It is common knowledge that xposed has too many combinations of ROM, kernel, user settings, modules, etc to receive any support outside of the xposed forum.

B. Nobody is hating on Xposed, it's an awesome project, but it does come with issues, and anyone who uses it should know that their support rarely ranges outside of the xposed threads.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] muppetmaster916:
Looked around, no luck, are we able to change the splash screen? Boot animation is easy but I'm having no luck with splash.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Soooperstar:
I've looked around for splash screen myself with no luck. I've changed the boot animation several times. If you find anything let us know
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] muppetmaster916:
Will do. Maybe [MENTION=2699658]xanaxdroid[/MENTION] knows. That white splash is brutal. No pun intended.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] xanaxdroid:
What splahscreen?
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] muppetmaster916:
The white Google splash screen when you first boot phone.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] xanaxdroid:
I think you'd have to find a way to inject a new one into the bootloader or find if it's hidden on a partition
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] muppetmaster916:
Thanks for the response, that's definitely beyond my skills lol.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] xanaxdroid:
Will be fixed in the next build. If you want me to see the logs you will probably need to tag me so I get notified. Thanks for posting it.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] blueyes:
Logo is a bmp image baked into the bootloader. Not accessible like Shamu (logo.bin) or the 5x (imgdata). If your curious you can run "strings bootloader*.img | grep "whatever" :cowboy:
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] muppetmaster916:
Sooooo it can't be changed at all or just requires someone with the skills?
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] napoleontheruler:
Can someone post links to 8.1 files please and thank you
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] xsnipuhx:
I can't get WiFi calling to work at work today. :(
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] stompysan:
+1 for sailfish love. pls
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Golf c:
That seems to be happening on most of the 8.1 roms I have tried. Some seem better than others. It's probably more of a Gapps issue. Hopefully it will get better.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] guitar1238751:
What files are you looking for? The rom is located in the op and it includes vendor and gapps. If your looking for stock 8.1 images they are located here.

Magisk is located here

& Twrp 3.2.0-0 is located here

---------- Post added at 11:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:31 PM ----------

Yeah you have to flash the 8.1 factory images before flashing Benzo. And yeah flash everything in slot_a and then magisk in slot_b so it doesn't get removed during the initial bootup
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Bryanx86:
Hi, great ROM. Very smooth, and picked up my vzw apns whereas the google 8.1 factory imgs don't. One question though, what is on-the-go mode?
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] guitar1238751:
On the go mode pretty much uses the back camera as a persistent transparent overlay on your screen. That way you can see the ground as you are using the phone. So for example, your texting someone, and at the same time the background of your entire display is the back camera. Not sure if I explained in right lol
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] oman0123:
Its looking like most everybody is having little to no issues with the new rom, So I'm assuming it's definitely something on my end but can anyone confirm they have working Bluetooth? I also had some apps keep force closing after restoring with titanium. Even after uninstalling and reinstalling. Just want to make sure it's on my end so I can give it another go.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Jackaroop:
I'm experiencing persistent crashes with random apps(like pizza hut tonight) even after clearing data, reinstalling, granting permissions.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] oman0123:
Glad it's not just me. I'll give it one more go in the morning, following directions to the T, and hopefully report back with some better news.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] dictionary:
Same here with the random app crashing. Everything kernel related is stock settings. Coming from 8.1 stock. Other than that, running amazing. Great battery life as well
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] aoaleman:
Great ROM so far, been running for like two days. Looks like with the app crashes, it has to do with system fonts. At least that's what shows up consistently in the logs. Either way, thanks Xanax!
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] dcillusions77:
Thank you for your time to give this to us!!!!
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Zehlek:
I tried flashing Magisk on Slot B but when I boot up Magisk is installed but root isn't working?
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Golf c:
Root should be there, you just have to install Magisk Manager Apk. For some reason the zip isn't flashing it.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Soooperstar:
Everything works fine for me. Only issue I have is the reboot menu wont boot into recovery or the bootloader. Nice Rom
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Donric13:
Nice features. Just one question. Is there an option to raise brightness and timeout for notification on lockscreen (didn't found it in OP).
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] wgrant:
Got everything installed with ease but am seeing some little things that I'm sure will be resolved over time.

Lockscreen bottom shortcuts set to none but still show

App crashes (most likely app related not ROM)

Once navbar is swapped the icons are squeezed in the middle, spacing is different from original

Fantastic otherwise though. Solid work!
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] mikaole:
Working fine here. Only 2 widgets are not working (aquamail and Fritz appticker) but that could be app related. Don't know and don't care:)

Thx for bringing rom development back to life.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] blueyes:
Honestly doubt anyone would risk corrupting the bootloader (easiest way to brick a Nexus (Pixel) for a logo. Risk vs reward

I wish I could. Blinding white bootup sucks.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] ayylmaomyman:
Yep, Shamu logo mod was absolutely devilish

Shame that was a one time thing
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] anderson79:
Can someone tell me why he tells me very often that systemUI has stopped or stopped working? when I want to install a theme or an app
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] yusuo:
How stable is this ROM, I'm reading a few comments about multiple crashes etc
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Soooperstar:
I got multiple crashes on the current build. Went back to a previous build
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] yusuo:
I'll stay away for now then, thanks
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] muppetmaster916:
I'm on the current build with exnoshadez kernel and literally have not had a single issue. I also don't use substratum.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Soooperstar:
I tried it without substratum and samething. I may try it again and give the kernel a try
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] liam_davenport:
Logs...
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Soooperstar:
I couldn't get it to stay stable long enough to get a log so I reverted back.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] liam_davenport:
The ROM is flawless for me what is your issue? Sounds like User error.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Soooperstar:
No I've heard atleast 5 others in the thread complaining of the same issue. I flashed rom, was good for a few, then Google play services and many other apps start crashing uncontrollable. I've heard several others say the same happens to them so it's not just me
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] liam_davenport:
I'm using it fully stock as is no issues with force closes, Did you clean flash or flash any mods after?
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Soooperstar:
Clean flashed. Had 3minit and substratum, so I started over without each of those set everything up with no mods whatsoever flashed magisk and shortly after, happened again. I thought it may have something to do with me being on January security patch but I saw another user that experienced the samething report that he started over with February stock image and still got the same. My coworker tried clean flashing on his device and shortly after got systemui crashes. If I have time oneday, I may try again and quickly get a log started to log the issues. All previous builds work fine for me.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] projekt8e:
Since people seem to be arguing over xposed, this rom and kernels. Here's what happened to me after a fresh install of a complete OEM restore. Booted up, worked fine, Xposed slowed the phone down, installed EX kernel and got the error message at boot. No worries. Clear it out and everything is snappy and fine.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] xanaxdroid:
ATTENTION: Please talk about Xposed somewhere else. I don't use it. I don't support it so please take it somewhere else.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] xanaxdroid:
Please don't report problems when you are flashing mods with the rom.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Beachbum2049:
Ok.

1 hour of heavy use with no mods and no issues. Sorry for the useless posts.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] ender4212:
I'm also getting a FC when going to Benzo Extras/Statusbar/Statusbar items. So far that's the only error I've come across.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] blueyes:
You can change the logo in bullhead. LG uses imgdata and there's tools for it like Shamus logo.bin. The Pixel 2xl is made by LG but Google's become more involved with hardware since the Nexus 5x was made so it may not even have the imgdata file.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Beachbum2049:
[MENTION=2699658]xanaxdroid[/MENTION]

More crashes. Factory Reset, flashed Benzo, flashed TWRP. No root. No data restore from backup. All apps downloaded via play store during setup.

I captured with adb logcat, it's a huge file and I'm not sure what is and isn't relevant. Play Movies, Solid Explorer, SoundCloud, Chrome Beta all FC. All like before.

Here is a shorter log of Google Camera crash:

https://pastebin.com/q3VrwM6Z

Rebooting causes everything to behave for some variable amount of time. Then this starts happening. Seems any app that was launched before the crash trigger can be launched, but any new app cannot.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Amer:
ok so , i hard bricked my pixel when i accidentally disconnected the cable while flashing factory image , and got an RMA from google.

Got a new replacement and installed the rom clean , its worked fine for 1 day , then all the apps started crashing. So im assuming it has to be rom related ...:confused:

if i retart the phone , they will work again no problem but after a day , it will happen again.

any ideas ?
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] liam_davenport:
Logcat
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Amer:
yea im gonna wait till it happens again and try to logcat. Does it matter if i restart my phone before taking the logcat ? because when all apps crashing , the only thing i can do is restart to be able to use the logcat app

(cant do it on pc /not home).
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] tekno4ever:
Not sure why this is the case but no matter which version of this ROM I install TWRP always states that No OS is installed. I can install all the other ROMs just fine but not benzo. I've tried the instructions to "fix" this NO OS issue but that never works either. Anyone have an idea why I can literally install ever other ROM but not Benzo?
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Soooperstar:
Installs fine for me, and you always get no OS installed when wiping system before any ROM that doesn't mean it doesn't work
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] muppetmaster916:
I usually just boot it anyway and it works. False warning in my experience.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] ayylmaomyman:
Just wait until you go home and reproduce the crash
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] tekno4ever:
it does not work just so both of you are aware. it boot loops over and over. i've tried numerous tactics to get it to boot like reflashing the vendor image all to no avail.

so do you have any other ideas why I can't boot this ROM but I can boot all the others?
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] muppetmaster916:
My exact steps.

1. Fastboot factory image.

2. Fastboot boot twrp.

3.wipe system, data, cache.

4.install rom.

5.boot into rom.

6. Fastboot boot twrp.

7.install magisk

8.install exnoshadez

8. Boot.

I've done this for every release without issue. Aside from prior to exnoshadez containing anykernel it was flashed before magisk.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] tekno4ever:
I'm not sure what the heck is going on but I decided to install on Slot B and now I'm able to get the ROM to boot. So I wiped everything and then reinstalled on Slot A and got the same boot loops over and over. Reinstalled back to Slot B and now it boots up for a second time just fine.

Very strange to say the least.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Amer:
logcat

i was able to take a logcat of the errors when all the apps start crashing.

i have a clean install. [MENTION=2699658]xanaxdroid[/MENTION]
