Al,

I am not the best to answer you, but nobody else seems to want to answer.

It was really difficult for me to install TWRP, LineageOS, SU, and Gapps. Took many tries - each beginning with restoring the Google factory image.

Then, I thought the LineageOS update function was broken/freezing, so I tried downloading new versions of LineageOS and installing them. Every time this was a disaster. If I recall correctly, I lost gapps, couldn't reinstall gapps. I suspect the LineageOS installer wipes everything. So I did a Google factory image restore, reinstalled everything from scratch, copied my sdcard backup from computer to phone. A real mess. Hours of work.

I think the best way to update is to just use the LineageOS built in updater. It might appear to freeze or be broken, but it is working. It just takes time. In my case it takes about 1 and 1/2 hours.

Sideload

Flasing GApps Recovey LOS - Error 70, TWRP - Ok

Way? (english not my language)
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Danj1:
I had to boot twrp temporarily to install LOS with Opengapps to pass Error 70:

fastboot boot twrp.img

Then I followed the normal install guide from LOS wiki.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] supachris:
Yes, "reboot adb sideload" does not work. You have to reboot to bootloader, load twrp again temporarily with fastboot and install Gapps with sideload. The wiki is wrong here (or outdated).

I like it very much.

Thank you - to the developers.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Reverse-anastomosis:
It works just fine. It is a little confusing though because nothing shows on the device screen for some reason. If you type "adb devices" in your terminal it will show your device is connected as a sideload device. When its done side loading it will return to the main lineage recovery screen.

Edit: I used mindthegapps, never have had any luck with opengapps on this device.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] _Melkiy_:
Yes, adb reboot sideload work. Flash gapps error 70. Twrp work.

Weird charging

When I turn off my phone at night and plug it in for a charge, I notice that the charge symbol stays lit on the screen. It does not go out. Later when I "guess" it is finished and unplug it, the charge symbol still stays, even though unplugged. I must press and hold power button for 15 seconds so that phone will boot. Any suggestions?
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] HowardZ:
Duane,

I have not experienced your problem.

I am very pleased with the app Battery Charge Limit which needs Root to function. It turns off and turns on Charging based on percentages the user specifies - the goal is to improve battery life.

The theory is that battery life suffers whenever a LiOn battery is charged past 80%.

I set my phone to stop charging at 75%, and then when the battery goes down to 65% to begin charging again (to 75%).

At home, the phone is always connected to a charger, and stays charged at 75%.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.slash.batterychargelimit

This app might not help you, but this app can turn charging (and the charging light) on and off at the appropriate percentages.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] dannyboyex:
That happens to me on occasion. It's best not to charge up the phone while it is off. When I first got the phone I had a few panic moments when it wouldn't turn on. Now I just try not to let the phone die before charging it and I haven't had any problems.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Duane500:
Yeah. Unfortunately, that looks like the only way for me.

Hello! Does the battery hold well?
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] HowardZ:
Well, I finally have success with connecting the phone to the computer, and being able to see the files in Explorer.

I found the answer in this article:

https://www.howtogeek.com/195607/ho...evice-to-show-up-in-file-explorer-if-it-isnt/

The problem was the device driver on my Windows 8.1 computer.

The first try at replacing the device driver I had a choice of either an Android driver or a Google driver, I chose the Google driver, rebooted computer, it did not show the phone's files.

The second try, I also had a choice of "USB Composite Device", and I chose it.

Now it works.

So maybe there are others with the same problem, and this will help them.

Got me a Pixel a week ago, converted to my usual LOS setup soon afterwards, and I have to say I like this phone! :)

Only real issues so far: high battery drain sometimes (seems WiFi related), and Google Camera night mode sometimes crashes the phone (switches it off).

The OG Pixel (Marlin/Sailfish) has a really small system partition. That's why large GApps packages don't work. You'll need to use Nano or Pico, if you're dead set on OpenGApps, or, save yourself the trouble and just use what [MENTION=614507]razorloves[/MENTION] posted in the OP...

black screen during and after call

Ever since switching from stock to lineage, my screen goes black during phone calls and won't turn on until I reboot. Anyone else have this issue, or know a fix? I'm guessing it's related to the proximity sensor, I tried a calibration app but it didn't seem to help.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] hairycheez:
That's weird.

[MENTION=614507]razorloves[/MENTION]

Loaded the latest with your new changes and it SEEMS to have completely messed up the phone settings on my verizon pixel xl (marlin).

On LOS from the 9/14 build everything is fine on the 9/30 build under

settings/network & internet some options are gone

Options like:

enhanced 4g lte toggle

under advanced:

wifi calling

carrier video calling

access point names

all of the above options no longer exist where as they do exist and work fine on the 9/14 build

Worse then that it appears when those options are not present my phone defaults to use cdma for all voice calls instead of volte. I am in an area that cdma call quality is very poor so could not even make a decent phone call on this latest version.

I confirmed all this as follows:

Loaded the newest version via the los installer in background after the reboot the above options were gone.

Restored a system image nandroid backup of the 9/14 build I had .... all options back

manually installed the 9/30 update through twrp .... all options gone again

Restored system image again... all options returned

I do not run any verizon specific apps on my phone nor do I want to. Their apps spy on you and report back to tech support things like if your rooted and if you have programs running Verizon recommends against. They report rom and kernel version and tech support will deny support to anything but stock rom.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] razorloves:
oh, sorry about that. it's probably because you had manually disabled or removed verizon stuff. a network reset might have fixed it. if not, then a factory reset to undo the manual changes you made.

UPDATE: I have reloaded the rom again and tried both a network reset and a factory reset and the results are the same. All those categories are still unavailable. I am not sure what else to try but in its current state with that new carrier change its completely unusable to me.

Are there no other Verizon users that can confirm or deny the findings I have listed?

[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] adm1jtg:
No, I have wasted enough time on this. I picked LOS cause of the easily applied upgrades in the background and stability. This latest update changes both of those aspects at least on my phone and so far I have not heard of any Verizon users reporting back either way. I would like to hear back from any Verizon user on a Verizon pixel xl as to if they have the same issues or if they are not experiencing these issues at all. Until there is a little more feedback one way or the other I cannot afford to be a test dummy any longer. I do appreciate all the hard work but it really seems like this particular commit is a problem,.

Also I don't see how resetting everything to stock and reloading would help, as if I nandroid back to my LOS build from only 2 weeks earlier everything is fine. If I install the update on top of it, the aforementioned options disappear. This means the problem is specifically related to the 9/30 builds system partition, vendor and boot were unchanged between the 2 dates in question and my data partition was unchanged.

I too have a Pixel XL on Verizon. I have only been on Lineage 16 for 5 days. I can confirm that I do not have VOLTE working, nor do I have the options in any settings. I downloaded Google's Phone app to see if the settings would be available through that, but no such luck. I was on the 9/30 build when I noticed that VOLTE was not working, but cannot confirm whether or not is was working on initial install with the 9/27 build. I am currently on the 10/02 build.

I need it tested before i merge it though. You can flash this with fastboot or twrp, then let me know if it works fine. You can make a backup in twrp of the boot partition before flashing this, to be on the safe side. No wiping needed.
