What are you doing to fix it? Top left galaxy wearable in your picture will say not compatible when you go into it for me, had to sideload it.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] MrBrady:
Oh, gotcha. Yes - some of those apps don't appear. And just noticed that I saw Netflix, but Netflix VR, not the "real" Netflix.

What's the trick to get this working?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Curiousn00b:
With Magisk installed, give this a shot.

1. Reboot

2. After device boots up, advanced reboot, and click hot reboot

3. Check the Play Store

I first noticed this method when I get soft reboots when the device was forced to rotate, and I noticed I had a Netflix update available, but not when I reboot. It was only triggered by the soft reboots.

Here's what I have hidden in Magisk Hide as well.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] MrBrady:
Thanks for the screenshot. I think the Magisk Hide was the key fix for me. I didn't have "Show System Apps" enabled in Magisk Hide, so my Play Store and Services Framework weren't showing up. I hid both of those, rebooted. Netflix and Galaxy Wearable weren't showing up. Cleared Storage on the Play Store and opened it up. Then Netflix and Galaxy Wearable appeared. Problem solved!
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Davies_90:
Hi all,

Just wondering I purchased a pixel 2xl and it's already rooted and on latest beta os,is it still a requirement to flash 06/19 vendor image prior to havoc os or is it safe to flash ?

I'm only asking as I've no access to a pc so don't fancy a boot loop.

Thanks in advance.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] sharkie405:
Since that phone is on the Q beta and Havoc is a Pie based ROM, you would need to flash the July factory Pie image first and allow the flashing process to fully wipe your phone. Then you can flash Havoc.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Davies_90:
Thanks for the reply,I threw caution to the wind and factory reset then flashed havoc,it flashed okay then after it rebooted it prompted me to wipe again. All good thus far.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] vipulkarkar:
Hello Guyz,

can someone help me with the issue I am facing since today morning!

I clean flashed Havoc Yesterday night and it was running smooth till today afternoon.

Then it lost the network connection, showing No Sim available.

I tried to restart, it worked, however in few minutes it started showing the message "vendor file is not matching......."

Clicked ok, SystemUi restarted with same message, tried around 40 times, rebooted but stuck on the same screen.

Not able to use phone at all.

I don't want to loose all my data by formatting.

Note: I can access recovery and can see the data there.

Any help would be appreciated.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Subhojit:
Anyone else facing random app not launching issue?

Literally had to reboot the phone and click chrome many times to post this. I had clean wiped to install this update with q port of sultan kernel.

What could possibly cause this?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] sadiku:
I have same problem with Sultan kernel. Want to find a way back to Havoc's kernel.

[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] MrBrady:
To go back to the built in kernel, reflash the ROM.

Dirty flash Havoc, TWRP then boot. Reboot to recovery and flags Magisk.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Neejay:
Yep, from the 7/15 Havoc.

A few weeks ago, I took the plunge and factory flashed the April full image with -w, booted and setup a pattern, adb rebooted to bootloader, fastbooted TWRP, then I flashed 7/15 Havoc + TWRP, still had decryption working. For the 7/25 update, I dirty flashed it and TWRP, attempted to reboot (without worrying about Magisk yet) and it just bootlooped. I tried hard booting to TWRP and also fastbooting TWRP, and could no longer decrypt. I also double-checked the SHA1 on my download against the SourceForge page (matched).

I did NOT flash the factory July image before flashing, but I did update to the July vendor...hmm...maybe I'll try it when I get off work.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] MrBrady:
I've also had this happen when the A/B boot slot switches and whatever slot you're booting to isn't up to date.

One way to check is in TWRP, go to the reboot menu. I believe it says what the current boot slot is. Click the button to boot to the other boot slot.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] sharkie405:
Havoc's kernel: https://download.msfjarvis.website/caesium/wahoo/stable/

You may want to also give Kirisakura kernel a try, if you haven't already. I've been using it and have zero issues.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Benjamin_L:
You probably didn't flash July vendor to both slots. Try that first

[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] jlokos:
Verizon VM on Havoic has been an issue for some time.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] CaptJager:
Then why not have it listed on page one as not working? And why an issue for some time this is a phones and voicemail does happen. Guess I will go back to DU and figure something out. It would be nice if their github had their official device tree on it as well as vender tree...
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] jlokos:
I am not the Op or the Dev; however, it has been discussed often in this thread; the OP has built many other roms such as Bootlegger, AOSIP, Potato and DotOS, in which VVM works.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Subhojit:
Dirty flash havoc, twrp zip, reboot to recovery, flash magisk and reboot.

No issues here. Been running Havoc-OS since release, and coupled with Sultan+ kernel since [MENTION=9116297]Eamo5[/MENTION] started developing it.

Do you still have issues with Sultan kernel, not Sultan+ kernel? If not, then maybe need to get logs and submit a bug report to [MENTION=9116297]Eamo5[/MENTION]
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] brsteej:
I have a problem with last build 25/7

in system ui something going wrong .. : first boot there was a location icon shown in status bar even its disabled in setting / QS after i restart the phone it gone

next step i downloaded some files using chrome browser and there is no downloading progress in notification bar !

so i tried many icons in QS to see if it show in status bar : NOTHING .. only appears after restarting

So i did flash stock factory taimen image (latest build) boot/ restart to bootloader boot twrp / wipe and flash Havoc : same issue and ive tried without wipe same steps

so now iam running 15/7 havoc build

BTW : is there any kernel support double tab on navbar to sleep ? i use Havoc rom only for this feature

thank for the developer
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Neejay:
Welp, I tried flashing July stock without -w (both slots), booted system just fine. Rebooted to recovery just fine, flashed Havoc 7/25 just fine, attempted to switch slots within twrp and got an error about accessing /system, but it did switch. Flashed 7/25, again, attempted to boot, same issue: bootloop + unable to decrypt data in twrp.

I'm not clean flashing or totally wiping internal storage again, so I guessn I'm stuck in 7/15 lol
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Juzman:
Why are you switching slots?

Boot TWRP, flash rom, flash twrp. Reboot recovery, flash Magisk.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Neejay:
Because that didn't work for me (read back a few pages). That's the normal way and the default way I normally flash. At this point, I was trying all possible options.

EDIT: That's the whole mystery, as to why the normal way doesn't work and works for others.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Juzman:
Oh yep, sorry so many posts in this thread.

That is quite strange, guess the system is fried. Might need to wipe and start fresh unfortunately.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Neejay:
Lol exactly, which I won't be doing for a while. I'm getting burnt out. Thanks anyway though!
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] willypratam4:
Is the rom compatible with my pixel 2 (walleye).. ?

Hey [MENTION=6864870]slothdabski[/MENTION] I noticed over on your AFH you're also building dotOS Pie.

What is your view on dotOS vs Havoc-OS? I've been a long time Havoc-OS user and have recently come across dotOS but trying to find differences between the two ROMs.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Prattham:
I flashed dotos, less features but there is theme going on in that rom by default, i mostly noticed the icons for system

No oms commits either
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Juzman:
Ah right, I'm not too concerned about OMS as I don't usually theme (just select dark in Havoc).

So it's basically a cut down version of Havoc then?

Are you going to (unoficially) keep building dotOS [MENTION=6864870]slothdabski[/MENTION] and maybe create a forum on here, or should I just keep checking AFH for updates?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Subhojit:
Downloading the august build. Anyone had any trouble?

Planning on clean flash as have faced a lot of app not launching issues often and screen responsiveness.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] joeo10:
Same here, will wait for the weekend to flash it since clean flashes usually take a couple for days to sort out for me.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] sharkie405:
Dirty flashed with no issues.

Slothdabski-uploaded August vendor image for anyone who needs it: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=6006931924117930811
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] jlokos:
DotOS has many features (except for squeeze), is very stable and battery life has been excellent (uses same kernel as havoc). It works great with Verizon and VVM (unlike havoc).

Anyone tried slothdabski's latest build, StagOS? slothdabski is a monster:) He's built some great roms for our device. I hope he keeps up the great work.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] MrBrady:
Just dirty updated from 7/25. No issues. Here's my update path:

Took the Havoc OTA update to 8/6

When it said installation was finished and to reboot, I opened EX Kernel Manager and flashed TWRP and Magisk 19.3

It seems that neither TWRP nor Magisk successfully flashed, so I was stuck w/ Havoc recovery for now

Booted to Bootloader and updated the following to the August security release in both slots: Bootloader, Radio, Vendor

In Bootloader booted to TWRP, flashed TWRP and Magisk 19.3

Booted to Havoc 8/6

Profit
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Edmontonchef:
It's like liquid remix, seems more stable.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Juzman:
I tried DotOS but just didn't feel the same as Havoc, so clean flashed April stock to keep TWRP decrypt then flashed Havoc-OS again haha.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] jlokos:
As I mentioned, I can't use havoc. I was using DotOS since it came out. I just switched to the August AOSIP build which is one of my favorites.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] chopt51:
Do both of those ROMs have centered clock?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] kiefferbp:
Havoc does.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] chopt51:
Is why I'm asking. I'm in havoc and prefer to have centered clock. I only have little free time to flash a ROM is why I'm double checking. I remember for the longest time DU wouldn't add centered clock.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Juzman:
I know both dotOS and Havoc have center clock.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Juzman:
Flashed latest 08/06 build with no issues, just dowloaded Lawnchair 2 2.0-2357-ci from apkmirror and installed it as it wasn't in new build. :)

Thank you very much!

I have one question, is it possible to get Google Pay to work? It says my device is rootet or something is changed. I want to test it.

I don't have Magisk installed or any root.

I'm intrigued by this DotOS, It definitely has promise, but the mobile hotspot didn't seem to work. For now will stick with Havoc, even with the Verizon disappearing VVM mystery that plagues so many ROM's
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Neejay:
Weird result, but I dirty flashed 8/06 over 7/15, and got the same results from trying to flash to 7/25: bootloop.

This time, I was in the middle of cooking, saw it start bootlooping several times and said F it, and left it bootlooping. About 5-10 minutes later, I looked over, and it had booted to the OS. Lol
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] MrBrady:
The initial update boot does take a bit longer than normal. No more than 1 or 2 mins in my device. Glad you got it booted though!

Dirty flashed the latest build and all good.

However I wanted to start fresh. What would be the advantage. Would it let me start all over like a clean flash? I don't feel like adb august and stock ROM first. Will factory reset boot?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Neejay:
I just dirty flashed the 8/7 build over the 8/6, and same thing: I counted the reboots before it successfully booted: 6... It rebooted by itself 6 times before booting.

I reboot two times in the morning

I reboot two times at night

I reboot two times in the afternoon

[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] wrongway213:
I've been having an issue on 8/6 build where when I charge my phone overnight.. it simply turns off at some point during the night. Charging continues like normal and when I wake up the phone is powered off I power it on and it's at 100% battery like normal. Missed alarms and all are there. I looked on GitHub because no changelog has been posted yet, but I didn't see anything that would address this particular issue. Has anyone else experienced this on 8/6 build?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] sharkie405:
I'm on the 8/6 build as well and have not had this happen to me. Although, my phone did power off randomly once about a month ago. I was afraid my Pixel 2 XL was going to start having the dreaded Nexus 6P battery issues, but it hasn't happened again, so hopefully it was a one-time fluke.

Anyone experience a forced soft reboot when rotating the device sometimes? I noticed it happening to me on all of sloth's builds for me.

It happens to me once or twice a day. I first know it's about to happen when I'm on YouTube trying to watch a video and I rotate it sideways, causing the screen to go full black, but I'm able to exit YouTube. When I go to rotate the device is Settings, launcher, Chrome, or anywhere else, the screen freezes for 10 seconds, then reboots back to the lockscreen. I can't grab a last_kmsg because one isn't generated for some reason(maybe because it's a soft reboot?), but I was able to logcat YouTube for when it happened. That's about all I can do.

Hey can you try turning on any accessibility service and try reproducing this? I found that turning on any accessibility service will cause this. And it can only be fixed by turning off all accessibility services AND rebooting.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] slothdabski:
Accessibility was on during that video. I always have accessibility enabled at all times for oneplus gestures app. What app do you have it enabled for?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] neekless:
Before I cleaned flashed I had accessibility on for an app called LMT. After clean flash I didn't install LMT, so I tried with Talkback. I clean flashed 2 times and have been able to reproduce this consistently. Even if I turn on the accessibility service for Talkback and immediately turned it off, the problem is triggered. Can you try?

Edit: Also can you try with any other app that has immersive mode?

Edit2: I just tried with switch access. Problem occured too.

The LTE quick settings switch (glad to have this back, my previous phone didn't have it on any rom) moves me to 3g well but when it's time to return back to LTE no data connects.
