Either you missed like 70% of the steps or these aren't the actual steps you've taken. I don't see a reboot to recovery or flash vendor or anything in your steps

4. reboot -> recovery (this will reboot you into the other slot)

5. flash stock vendor img

6. mount -> vendor, then open the file manager and delete the /vendor/overlay folder

7. flash gapps zip (optional)

Does the Google Photos unlimited upload work with this rom? Also does Ampre Battery meter happen to work on this rom?
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] haibane:
For the first one, I would recommend searching the thread. Unfortunately there isn't a lmgtfy.com for xda.

For the second one, Are you talking about this? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gombosdev.ampere&hl=en

This thread really isn't about supporting add-ons you should probably contact the dev for those add-ons etc.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Poebat:
I mean does the battery meter work? On other LOS roms it normally picks up -0mA. It doesn't have to be ampre it's just one of the well known ones.

You can just use the pixel ones and disable the old ones. However, disabling apps may cause lineage to act up.

[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] DarthDestroyeis:
I tried stock (not installed to system) and the Android P port
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Elixir_:
You need to install it as a system app, I had the same issue.

---------- Post added 16-03-2018 at 12:02 AM ---------- Previous post was 15-03-2018 at 11:49 PM ----------

Yes I actually did that. You need root access + a file explorer (I use fx).

/system/priv-app/Dialer replace the apk with the Google dialer apk

/system/priv-app/Contacts replace the apk with the Google contacts apk

/system/app/messaging replace the apk with Android messaging apk

/system/app/Calendar replace the apk with the Google calendar apk

Etc

You can find the Google apks on https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/

I advise you to do a backup for the original LOS apks in case anything goes wrong. You can do this by saving them in a folder on your main storage.

Anyone have any idea how to flash the new TWRP 3.2.1-2? Because Plan A) fastboot won't flash it (giving me a "Flashing active slot "_a"... FAlLED (remote: partition [recovery] doesn't exisit)...

I managed to crash the USB driver on my Pixel by plugging in my USB headset dongle through a type-C hub and playing music. It plays music for a few seconds through the headset, and then stops working at all, requiring a reboot to do anything but charge from USB.

I also managed to get the touchscreen to stop responding with the screen rotation locked to landscape by enabling freeform windows, resizing a freeform YouTube window a bunch, and turning the phone landscape, which caused SystemUI to crash. Locking the screen and unlocking did not fix the issue, and required a hard reboot by holding the power button.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] haibane:
Dude read any of the instructions.... Don't know why you're using fastboot or flashify.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] richii0207:
Just for future troubleshooting and to answer current questions:

The OP did not go through all that time to write detailed instructions on how to properly install the ROM and even TWRP just because. The instructions are given in sequence and in great detail for a reason. Thank you, razorloves.

I'm not sure how he or other users have the patience to basically rewrite what is written on the first post for anyone who tries to use a previous device install method or shortcut their way because of laziness.

If you can't install a rom with instructions that couldn't be written clearer, then you shouldn't be customizing your phone because if something else goes wrong and you soft brick, you're in trouble.

Hopefully this reduces the amount of unnecessary clutter and the thread becomes more rom-oriented. End of rant, it's just frustrating to go through pages of issues installing the ROM just to find rom-related things.

---------- Post added at 11:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:34 AM ----------

I'm on step h -

Go to `Advanced` - > `File Manager`. Navigate to /vendor/overlay/, then click the checkmark in the bottom right. Select `Delete`. Then go back to TWRP home

getting this back:

rm -rf "/vendor/overlay" process ended with ERROR: 1

Looks like folder contents are read only, chmod fails also, try a reboot back into recovery?

F-Droid not working

Hi, I succsessfully installed the Rom on my Pixel XL. Then I installed Magisk without a problem but when I got to F-Droid I went out of luck. I can't tap it within my files. Nothing happens when I do unlike with the Magisk apk which pops up an install option. When I go under Install unknown apps the Phone only detecs Magisk and not F-Droid. I tried two different F-Droid apks from different sources.

I tried to restore the backup with the image I made after the lineage OS finally worked but that ended up in a boot loop. I wiped it and reinstalled lineage OS and I got the same problem with F-Droid on my fresh linage install. By the way how can I back up the phone now with a working image?

Any ideas on backups and F-Droid?

Thanks

Pechvogel
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] RegnierD:
Those occupy more space on the /data partition, which can be inconvenient for those of us with 32GB models. Having a full package available puts the apps in the /system partition and uses the space allocated there for all of those apps instead of eating into precious storage space.

I, for one, would also like to see a full gapps package available.

Have any of you (or anyone for that matter, lol) tried OpenGApps since it's been bumped up to 8.1?

The worst that could happen is your device explodes...
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] haibane:
Works fine on my phone. Maybe try following the install instructions on the first page and do a clean install. Don't install Magisk yet. Confirm you can get it working with the standard lineage install.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Pechvogel:
Hi,

I kind of did that . Once I had the boot loop I went back to step one and executed the flash-all script. Then I went into the now booting google os and wiped all data. And installed lineage and nothing else.

Now, when I start the phone it tells me 'Your device software can't be checked for corruption. Please lock the bootloader.' I guess that info is normale because the bootloader is open. But that the info is still there after the wipe of the phone means that the bootloader is not effected by the wipe. So is it possible that there might be something messed up on that software level which is set before the OS? And how can I restore all settings on this software level?

Thx

Anyone out there have a need for extended length nfc?

One of the more common uses for it are in german eID cards, with apps like AusweisApp2.

I know how to enable the extended length nfc feature on the pixel xl, but i need a tester to see if it works. I don't have access to anything that requires extended length nfc, so I can't test it myself.

Let me know...
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Dachfenster:
So I've tried the app with my German ID card. It doesn't work. It states "Your device doesn't fulfill the technical requirements (extended length)".

I think you misunderstand my post. It's currently not supported in lineageos or the stock rom on the pixel xl. But I know how to add support. I just need someone to test my change, before I add it to my public builds. I sent you a pm with more details and how to test my change. Thanks.

I always have two issues while updating to the new version following instructions from this post:

1. after changing slot and rebooting, twrp doesn't ask my password and my /sdcard appears empty, so I can only update rom zip with adb sideload.

2. after rom and new gapps are installed, all my google apps like gmail, gmaps, chrome and g.camera start crashing and I need to remove and install them again from playstore or apk.

I use all recommended versions of twrp, gapps, etc from the first post. Cleaning or non-cleaning dalvik cache doesn't change anything.

Any suggestions ?

Does the Google Camera and features work on this rom?
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] razorloves:
New build is ready with the April update from google.

That also means a new vendor img is needed from the April update released by google yesterday. OPM2.171019.029

The radio img is also new, so you should also flash it.

The bootloader img is the same as what was in last month's security update from google, so no need to flash it.

You can extract those img's from the OPM2.171019.029 factory image on google's site, or use the one's here that I already extracted:

marlin img's: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=261614

marlin rom: lineage-15.1-20180404-UNOFFICIAL-marlin.zip

note: sailfish links are in new post below

If coming from another rom, follow steps in the first post.

If you're updating from one of my previous builds:

1. Reboot into bootloader mode.

2. Flash the new radio img.

Note: make sure you use the '--slot all' option so that you flash both radio slots. Like this:

fastboot flash --slot all radio radio-marlin-8996-130091-1802061512.img

3. Using the volume buttons select 'restart bootloader'. Or do the 'fastboot reboot-bootloader' command.

4. Flash the new vendor img.

Note: make sure you use the '--slot all' option so that you flash both vendor slots. Like this:

fastboot flash --slot all vendor vendor-marlin-opm2.171019.029.img

5. Using the volume buttons select 'recovery mode'.

6. Go to the 'Reboot' option and select the other slot, then select 'Back', then select 'Recovery'.

7. Now you can flash the new rom zip.

8. Then flash the twrp zip.

9. Then go to the 'Reboot' option and select 'Recovery'. This will reboot you into the other slot, where the new rom was installed to.

10. Since you flashed a new vendor img earlier, you will once again have that /vendor/overlay folder that you have to delete. So, mount the vendor partition and open the file manager and delete the /vendor/overlay folder.

11. Flash the newest gapps zip linked in the first post.

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

Major changes since last release:

april security patches. (details here and here)

april functional updates. (details here)

[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] mr.travo:
Thank you for all your heard work and time into this project! I have read just about all 51 pages of this thread. I have a Pixel (sailfish) and have followed your instructions to the T. I actually did my second full reinstall today and am having the same issues.

I am with MetroPCS and I am having problems with this build as the phone isn't consistent. Some calls will complete, others won't connect. The call will be going through (as the other people had told me) but they can't hear me and I can't hear them. My data works flawless and that has me puzzled. Sim works just fine in my iPhone and had been using that one for a few months with no issues.

I did not install any Gapps with Lineage (trying to get rid of Google). Please let me know if there is any piece of information I have missed. I use my phone for a phone (I know, weird in todays time) so the calls are important to me.

Thanks!

Also- My APN's are good and verified

I'm also on metropcs and what I do is delete all metro apns and use TMobile lte apn. This is the only way I can get volte to work on custom ROMs also had to do this on my Nexus 5x to enable volte. I've never had trouble with calls in general it would just default to hspa instead of lte with the metro apns. Metropcs apn works fine on stock tho and I can't figure it out as they the apns are exactly the same.

Also if doesn't work you can just restore default apns so messing around with it will do no harm.

[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Droid_JD:
I've been hesitant to flash based on your feedback. I'm hoping another Verizon user will chime in with their experience, as WiFi calling has been a game changer for me ( reception is horrible at my office and home).

Please keep us updated if you figure it out, revert to prior build with/without issue, etc.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] bnmEEFaej:
I have typed #*#*4636*#*# into the dialer and toggled the volte and WiFi calling switch to trigger it. After messing around this worked for me and the same WiFi calling options persist. This is because Google has updated the My Verizon services app in the April functionality bulletin, and it just has to be relaunched, that's all.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] General_Tso:
For what it's worth, I "downgraded" to the last March build and the issue persisted. :confused:

Could you please elaborate on that?
