Hi,

I have currently an issue with my Google pixel XL and linage OS 16 (official nightly from 2020-01-23). I cannot switch on network based aka "high accuracy". As soon as I switch it on in the notification area it doesn't get saved.

When I try to use any maps/navigation app the accuracy is to low for a navigation. When I check any GPS status app, I can get a fix but it takes around 2-5 minutes and the accuracy fluctuates between 20m-200m.

General question: does lineage OS support network based location in general?

If not, do I need to install things like UnifiedNLP?

Thanks

Very bad battery life. 1 h listening music and battery from 100% to 55%

There are a dozen apps or more in the play store that you can easily change your mac address with as long as you have root.

Here's one that I can recommend...

So if one wants to stay with TWRP, does the twrp-pixel-installer.zip have to be flashed with each update?
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] n3kf:
If you want it on your device all the time, yes. You can just do a fastboot boot with the image from your PC when you need it also.

Data Transfer Tool

Is there anyway to turn off the Data Transfer Tool? I keeps coming periodically. It inevitably crashes and never completes its task. I want to set up my device fresh without copying anything over anyway.

*** Never mind. Found out the Data Transfer Tool can be de-installed. ***

Hey sorry that which version of TWRP can be use for the Lineage OS installation?

I keep using these version, combination of newer ones could make your phone a brick.

What's running smoother/faster on our OG pixels: Lineage 16 or 17?
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] aL_09:
Damn, I've come back for this rom. It is ten times better than android 10 roms. Android 10 is full of bug. I miss this smoothness more than dark mode...
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] wavedashdoc:
Perhaps you'd like to contribute to the development of Lineage 17.1 or Android 10 based roms?

I'm curious what bugs you've had. I've been running Pixel Dust and have only encountered a few bugs, nothing that discourages daily driver use.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] aL_09:
- headset bug, doesn't detect my earphone and if it does, sound doesn't come out or it'll show the headset logo even though I already pull out my earphone ( I'm use my earphone all the time so this is a problem )

- random reboots / black screens / bootloops

- if I left my phone idle for a minute or so it'll shutdown ( I have to restart all the time )

It still does happen on lineage os but not as often, maybe it's the battery problem. I'm buying a new phone anyways- realme c3
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] dic1911:
I once have that headset problem with my home-built ROM but I fixed it with someway I can't remember how, should be software problem, you can use Lesser AudioSwitch from play store as a workaround.

btw how could realme be any better than OG Pixel though?
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] aL_09:
I bought the og pixel because it is selling cheap in Malaysia, it is RM 350 (still a lot money). I kinda regret it because the battery is small and the included battery has not been replaced as it is a refurbished one. I know I can change the battery to fix the short battery problem but the battery is apparently expensive, so I better off buying a new phone. I wanted to bought the realme c3 because it has massive battery ~ 5000 mah and the essential stuff like fingerprint scanner, powerful soc ( I don't really play games but it's nice to have) . I don't mind the 32GB storage and the micro usb.

Long story short the of pixel battery is sh*t, the realme is better because of the 5000 mah battery. Still trying the lesser audio switch so I cannot really give an update yet.

How is battery life? 3+ h sot?
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] henryhacker007:
I had an OG Pixel XL (refurbished) , my current daily driver still hold up after changed the battery. My highest SOT can goes to 6 hrs. But the battery cost is very expensive, Maybe around RM 200 something when I changed. But it's better for you to get a new phone if you want to. But Pixel phone are using software for optimization so the hardware side especially battery size will quite bit outdated compared with the other Android smartphone like Xiaomi.

It's time for official 17.1 nightlies to start.

https://review.lineageos.org/c/LineageOS/hudson/+/272526

They should be showing up on the download portal in the next 12 to 24hrs.

If you want to upgrade from official 16.0 to official 17.1, follow the steps here https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/marlin/upgrade.

And in case you didn't already know about it, here's the link to the xda thread for 17.1.

I am having a strange problem.

I have not plugged the PixelXL into my desktop computer for many months.

When I plug it in, ADB devices shows no devices.

The PixelXL shows "USB debugging connected".

I have tried 3 usb cables - same result.

Any ideas?

What do you mean? You did a clean flash right?
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] eater99999:
I have "Jump to camera" enabled, so double-pressing the Power button with the screen off used to open the Camera app and it was useable. A few weeks ago, something changed -- I didn't change anything as far as I know -- and now it opens the lockscreen when I double-press Power. And then if I unlock with my fingerprint, the whole screen is grayed out except the status bar, like it's still locked.

Annoying! Any idea what's going on there?

[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] YandexStudio:
Hi, the 16.0 branch is based on Android 9, if you prefer Android 10, you'll need 17.1 branch.

I still didn't find the last official 16.0 build, but the maintainer PMed me a workflow without using existing ROM zip package. I tried and it works fine for me.

BTW, I remember I manually archived the last 17.1 official build on Wayback Machine, have a try.

I first performed a dirty flash and it would close as soon as I opened it. Then, I went ahead and performed a clean install. It opened at first then right after that it would close and say LineageOS settings keeps stopping. Tried rebooting and wiping cache same thing. Maybe I have a semi corrupted download?
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] lukazaz:
Dumb question, is there a way to migrate from 15.1 to 16.0 (Marlin) without wiping the phone?

Also please correct me if wrong

after flashing new vendor, radio & bootloader via fastboot; can I do the following

fastboot -w * this would do the wipe I need to do before flashing? or would I need to fastboot into TWRP?*

fastboot update {LOS file}.zip *LOS16 al install yay(?)*

fastboot flash recovery twrp.img

install TWRP

reboot into (slot B)

flash gapps

success(??)

use the Pixel migration to migrate data from cloud data(?)
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] HALV0RS3N:
Did a dirty flash from last build, same problem. Settings-System-Advanced-status bar-*crash*.

Ok, thanks razorloves. I had adb debugging on and that may have tripped safetynet. I turned it off and waiting to see what google play comes back with.

i used to pick that additional change but it's not needed. safetynet always passed fine without it. and from what i've noticed, most devs also dont use it.

it already is, but we disable dm-verity. with that enabled users wouldn't be able to flash gapps or other 3rd party zips.

sure. it just needs someone to do it. won't be me. sorry. too busy with other stuff.

alternatively, google keyboard has lots of themes and color options.

thanks. i can see the problem now. will be fixed in next version.

can you try this to see if it fixes it? clear data on the "LineageOS Settings" & "LineageOS Settings Storage" apps, then do a reboot.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] HALV0RS3N:
Not able to clear data on "LineageOS Settings Storage", greyed out button. Cleared data on "LineageOS Settings" and cache on "LineageOS Settings Storage". Same problem after reboot, noticed the same problem when trying to change setting for lockscreen.

(Settings-security & privacy-lock screen preferences-crash).

Workaround for those who are interested, disable and re-enable pincode on lockscreen and the settings for lock screen preferences will come up after setting new pincode.

"" That works, but not the lockscreen preferences setting? :confused: ""

Can do some more testing and provide a logcat for the other crash later today if that will help [MENTION=614507]razorloves[/MENTION] :good:

Time for new builds. Google released the september security updates 2 days ago, so we merged in all the security patches and changes.

https://source.android.com/security/bulletin/2018-09-01

https://source.android.com/security/bulletin/pixel/2018-09-01

https://source.android.com/security/bulletin/pixel/2018-09-01#functional-patches

Of course there's a new vendor img from google that you need to flash. Make sure you flash it to both slots. The radio and bootloader imgs are the same as in last month's factory image, so no need to flash them if you already have them.

sailfish vendor img - vendor-sailfish-ppr2.180905.006.img

marlin vendor img - vendor-marlin-ppr2.180905.006.img

sailfish rom - lineage-16.0-20180906-UNOFFICIAL-sailfish.zip

marlin rom - lineage-16.0-20180906-UNOFFICIAL-marlin.zip

Instructions:

If installing for first time, follow instructions in first post.

If updating from previous 16.0 build, flash new vendor img to both slots, then follow steps in first post, except don't do the wipes.

Major changes:

-september security patches and changes

-fixed status bar settings crash that some users experienced

Note for verizon and telus users:

Google released separate factory images for verizon and telus users.

verizon's factory image has a different bootloader img. so verizon users can download and flash it, if you really want it.

and the telus factory image has a different radio img. so telus users can download and flash it, if you really want it.

Search is your friend
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] dangambino:
I'm guessing if I flash all factory images before installing it ll be there, my searching only resulted in how to turn it on from the

settings-system-gestures-swipe up on home button, although that setting option is missing for me .....I think I answered my own question though
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] razorloves:
my guess is you didn't follow the instructions and flash the vendor img to both slots.

because the thing that makes that work is on the stock vendor img. so it seems like you have a vendor img from some custom rom that doesn't include that thing.

if you do have the right vendor img, then it's probably because you have a launcher installed that's not compatible with it, like you mentioned before.

Dear XDA users, long time lurker first time poster. Glad to be a part of the community.

Recently, I flashed my N920K with a stock rom (Nougat 7.0) and I encountered a IMEI null/null and no service problem.

I managed to change the IMEI to my original number rooting my phone, and using Xposed and IMEI Changer. Now my IMEI looks like this: 15 digit number/null. I still don't have any service and I suspect the other null is causing the trouble.

Any ideas?

Thank you.
