FAQ:

1: Can I dirty flash over LOS 15.1?

A: No, Clean flash is recommended, go to TWRP, wipe everything except internal storage+sdcard, flash ROM+GAPPS Pico, if root needed then Magisk 16.7 is the solution which is recommended for both AOSP based or LOS based

2. Pie seems laggy often, any fixes? ?

A: Due to skiagl renderer, our legacy device titan might work slowly with it, solution is switching to OpenGL, significant improvement will be noticable, how to do this? Simple flashable zip made by [MENTION=8714092]DanGLES3[/MENTION] , have a look into his thread here

3. When next build will arrive?

A: No ETA

4. Any sound mods work with Pie?

A: Check #2 thread for ViperFX

5. Can FaceUnlock can be enabled on Pie?

A: Why Not? Go here

FAQ generated by [MENTION=5257316]bejunk[/MENTION] that'd be helpful to Pie users ig

1: Can I dirty flash over LOS 15.1?

A: No, clean flash is needed.

2. How i install Pie?

A: Go to TWRP, wipe everything except internal storage+sdcard, flash ROM+GAPPS Pico, if root needed then Magisk 16.7 is the solution which is recommended for both AOSP based or LOS based.

3. But i want to have Google speech recognition, offline speech files (recognition) etc. (GApps nano) ?

A: Our /system partition is too small to fit Pie ROM + nano Gapps, but there is a solution: (we need to free some storage in /system):

1. Clean install needed, after wiping only flash ROM + Magisk zip. Boot the ROM

2. From apkmirror.com download Solid Explorer (recommended) or Mixplorer, also download "Android System Webview Google", "Google Keyboard" (or any other you normally use)

and Android Messages from Google. -> install them all. Enable Google Keyboard + Messages as default in Settings. In developer options enable Google webview as default.

Now with the explorer, navigate to /system/app and /system/priv-app: delete the "webview" + "LatinIME" + "messages" folder. When asked for root, grant it.

3. Now there should be enough space to install GApps nano, so boot to recovery and install GApps nano (if it still says insufficient storage, open GApps zip using

7zip and delete the app-sizes.txt)

4. Reboot, after login in you should be greeted with the Google setup screen which will download all your settings & apps.

4. How to enable Google Assistant:

A: You need root & a root explorer, maybe a texteditor app:

navigate to /system/ and backup your build.prop to internal first, just in case. Then open it with an editor

and add "ro.opa.eligible_device=true" so it looks like this:

...
#
# ADDITIONAL_BUILD_PROPERTIES
#
ro.opa.eligible_device=true
keyguard.no_reqiure_sim=true
...

-> save & reboot. Note: it may take 1-2 days until Assistant appears, you can try trigger it via home button-longpress

7. Regarding Pixel Launcher's: (if you want more customization and/or Google feed & weather (optional)):

A: There are currently 3 choices:

1. "Original" Pixel Launcher: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=77741983&postcount=257

-> Pie "app open" animations + dock icons in recents

-> no customization really

-> Google feed & weather works

2. "Rootless Launcher" by amirzaidi: (Playstore)

-> NO Pie "app open" animations + dock icons in recents

-> a little bit more customization

-> need to install Pixelbridge for Google feed & weather (see Playstore description)

3. "Ruthless Launcher" by shubbby https://xdaforums.com/android/apps-games/app-ruthless-pixel-launcher-based-t3755903

-> NO Pie "app open" animations + dock icons in recents

-> A LOT of customizations, full Icon pack support (per app) and much more, fully stable.

-> need to install Pixelbridge for Google feed & weather (latest build in his TG release channel)

Developers who are behind to bringup Pie to our titan:
