anyone can help me pls? i'm in big Trouble :(

im new to Pixel devices (1 week)

i flashed Havoc OS on my Pixel 2 XL, but i had to make a new clean install

so i did a factory reset in twrp, after that i wiped all partitions (System, Data, Cache), rebooted into twrp, but now it only freezes, i can't get into it

with "fastboot boot twrp" i also can't get into it

i searched around and the only Thing i found, was to Flash a factory Image, but i saw that this will wipe all my data

so my Question now, is there a way that i can get back to Havoc OS without loosing all my data?

Big thanks for help

greets
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] t-ryder:
Don't wipe system! Flash factory image, then the ROM and the other stuff. Your data will be lost. I had learn the hard way too. Factory, TWRP, ROM and kernel plus magisk, but do not wipe system.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Badger50:
You can fastboot the factory image without wiping your data. Just remove the -w from the flash-all.bat script, then fastboot it to both slots. If you didn't wipe your internal storage you should be ok.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] t-ryder:
But if it was encrypted all data is gone for good... (?)

//

Wiping system is the reason for getting stuck.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Badger50:
Nope. As long as he didn't wipe his internal storage while in twrp, it should all still be there. Yes to the part about wiping system though. That's usually a no no on the P2XL.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Denis Meissner1990:
that sounds really great and would save my day

can you explain pls how i do so?

remove the -w is no Problem (remove only the -w or the hole line?)

switching between Slots via fastboot also no Problem

but how do i fastboot it? what commands do i need?

Big thanks for your help
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Badger50:
After you edit the flash-all.bat script, just double click it with your mouse. Or, you can open a command prompt on the platform-tools folder and type...fastboot flash-all...

Once it's done flashing, let it boot up, then go back to fastboot mode, switch your slot, then run it again :good:
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] t-ryder:
Shut device down, hold volume down pressed, power on and connect to PC. Run modified script.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Denis Meissner1990:
OMFG i don't lost any of my data….

thank you very much and greets ;)
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Badger50:
Glad you got it working my friend. Going forward, always make a twrp backup of your stock rom and save it to your pc. That way you can always restore your data partition if things go awry :cool:
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] bkdodger:
Always a great idea... Keep one on the PC...

BTW I flashed this yesterday bc it was a slow work day lol

This ROM is solid and packed...

One thing i noticed on the download size of ROM was different than what showed on link unless I wasn't paying attention.. Lol

Since you say you have a rom as of 5 January 2019, I assume you have the stock rom

Boot TWRP image

Install rom zip file

Wipe dalvik cache
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Shell66666:
Just flash the zip through the recovery and clear the davick and the cache and all my programs and settings are saved?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Nikos2k:
There is no cache partition in pixel 2

Just the dalvik cache

Do not wipe any data

[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] t-ryder:
AFAIK security patches are part of the system image and in this case not relevant.

Keep your vendor image, bootloader and radio up to date, and of course if you wish so the ROM and magisk and stuff.

ringtones

Couple of questions for a Havoc OS noob. I'm very much used to roms like DU, and liquid. Usually, I drop my custom ringtones into the system\media\audio\ringtones folder, and after resetting the phone, they show up in the list when I go to select a ringtone. When I do the same thing on this ROM, and go to select a ringtone, I get the attached screen, and none of my custom ringtones (mp3) show up. Is there any way to get back to the traditional android ringtone picker?

Also, is there some setting I need to enable to allow Google assistant to recognize my voice? "OK Google," and "Hey Google" don't seem to work. any advice would be appreciated. Thanks
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Badger50:
Don't know if this will work or not since I'm on stock, but try changing your notification extensions from .mp3 to .ogg, then reboot and see if they show up for you on the sounds app. As far as "hey google" try clearing the google apps storage and cache data, reboot then try setting up your voice again :good:

If I turn it on it will crash my phone. Luckily I have enough time to turn it off before the next crash.

[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Nikos2k:
I don't have any crash problem with privacy guard

I prefer however using App Ops as privacy guard does not have an option for backing up / restoring the apps' settings (and it would take considerable time to set up the permissions of every app from scratch after a clean install)

Project FI works for me. I came from the Liquid Remix 9.0 rom.

3. Advanced Wipe

4. Dalvik/Art Cache, System, Data and Cache ONLY!! DO NOT WIPE INTERNAL STORAGE

5. Swipe to Wipe

6. Flash Rom and TWRP

7. Reboot to Recovery and flash Magisk if you want root access

8. Enjoy!

Once I booted into rom I loaded the Project FI app from Play store, granted permissions, and then activation was a breeze.

[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] nowell29:
I've noticed that the behavior changed as well. I have to "build and enable" (though enable doesn't actually seem to accomplish anything) then go into the manager tab and select the overlays and "enable" in there after. it will work for me then. I'll often go into manager first (before build of new theme) and disable all, Uninstall all overlays (from substratum, not play store or anything) then build, then apply, and then reboot.

What is the perfect way to update to the new build with a dirty flash? This is my first time so i assume i need to flash the vendor as well but do i need to flash the bootloader and radio?

Cheers ?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] ilal2ielli:
I use the method [MENTION=6864870]slothdabski[/MENTION] posted before...

Flash vendor image in TWRP, then flash rom, and TWRP. Reboot recovery from TWRP, which automatically switches your slot. Then flash vendor image, room, and TWRP again. Reboot recovery and flash Magisk, then reboot system.

Vendor image only updated once a month when updating to new months release.

I only update bootloader when bootloader is actually changed. Radio gets updated each time via fastboot flash radio --slot all command.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Prattham:

So need to flash bootloader for now and only radio? I can flash radio via twrp?
