The most current build, is for May (PQ3A.190505.002). You'll need the May vendor image from Google to get rid of the mismatch error. If you're still on last months build, you need the April vendor.

For Active Edge, it's not enabled by default, follow the path:

Settings/Scorpion Nest/Active Edge

Then, choose an action for "short squeeze" and/or "long squeeze" by tapping each.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] just a bird xo:
I apologize for my lack of knowledge here but would the vendor image be included in the factory image or does that have to be flashed separately?

Should I update to the latest factory image along with the May vendor image before flashing the latest build of your rom?

I feel like I'm sounding really stupid right now because I'm still a bit confused. I've done a little research but it's clear I need to do more.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] NepoRood:
No apologies needed, these A/B devices take a bit of getting use to. If you download the latest firmware from Google, all current factory images are included, get the latest here, click one of the links on the right for your device and choose the last one in that section, in this case, May

You just extract the zip that you downloaded, inside that zip is another zip. Extract that and you will find "vendor.img", this is the vendor you need. Move it to the sdcard on your device, along with the current ROM zip, TWRP installer and Magisk (if needed)

If you're on Scorpion already, just flash the latest build with TWRP then flash the TWRP install zip, if you want to retain TWRP. Reboot recovery, flash the vendor image and then flash Magisk for root. If you don't want or don't have root, you can skip flashing Magisk.

You should be good to go afterwards :good:

I've noticed a couple things but I'm not sure if either are rom related at all.

For some reason, it's showing 0 for both the user data and cache in all of my apps, even though they seem to be functioning properly

Also, isn't there supposed to be some sort of LED notification for notifications/charging? Come to think of it, I don't recall seeing led on stock OS either.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] bggold:
Your first issue is kernel/ magisk related. Not sure about the second.

Topjohnwu closed the issue I opened as not fixable. Different kernels resolve this.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] just a bird xo:
Gotcha. I did flash ElementalX kernel but I'm not sure if I had the issue prior or not. I'll fool around with it some more. Thank you.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] NepoRood:
Neither are ROM related.

For the first, I'm using the built in kernel and do not have that issue and for the second, the Pixel 3/XL doesn't have a LED indicator

[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Jiggs82:
Just flash the may vendor/ or firmware to both slots then clean flash the rom and twrp after, but first make a backup of course.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] nitramus:
Thanks for the reply but that did not really answer my question. I already know the steps as I did it a lot with my old phone with nougat and others before that one and by what I read with p3xl it seams like if I'm stock even with only magisk I still need a factory reset first. So if I reed between the lines are you telling me i can dirty flash your rom. Right?

Thanks

Kernel source is unified but rom source is not. You have to wait until someone builds this rom for blueline and not crosshatch.

We did a little work on Oreo (v1.0) but didn't release because Pie came out earlier than we expected, so we started working on that :p
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] NepoRood:
I can build for blueline, I just need someone to test before I release it.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Dacian97:
i followed the steps, and im just stuck booting forever. (really cool black boot animation though).

i tried flashing the vendor image using twrp, and that didnt work, so i redid all the stops and tried flashing it using fastboot too, still stuck booting forever.

:((((
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] NepoRood:
You flash vendor to both slots? I updated the OP earlier this morning...
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Eudeferrer:
I flashed a complete update yesterday (with -w) and it still didn't not boot up.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Dacian97:
yeah i flashed to both slots, exactly how you typed it out in op.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] NepoRood:
Weird, I uploaded the build that I'm using now...
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] arh2o:
From my testing, flash-all.bat doesn't flash both slots. It will only flash to the active slot. What I typically do for a fresh wipe and ROM install is:

fastboot --set-active=a

flash-all

Reboot to bootloader

fastboot --set-active=b

flash-all

Reboot to bootloader

fastboot --set-active=a

fastboot boot TWRP.img

flash the ROM and then TWRP zip

With this done, both slots are now updated with the flash-all script, and you've also moved the slot back to the original "a" slot.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] NepoRood:
For my own piece of mind, I just downloaded the ROM, wiped the device and did a clean install. I had no problems, booted up in 4-5 minutes, if it took that long...
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] SinisterXReaper:
I can't wait to test this out later on when I get the chance. I appreciate your hard work! I'll report back later on today how everything goes.

Just spent a couple of hours doing a clean setup up my device ?

Running like a dream but that may change in a couple of hours and the need to flash ROMs take over ? ?
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] SinisterXReaper:
I'm getting everything prepared so I can flash the ROM. Just a couple of questions though. Does flashing the ROM get rid of TWRP? I already have TWRP set up, I'm just not sure if I have to reflash TWRP after flashing the ROM. Do I flash the vendor image first, or do I flash the ROM then reboot to fastboot to flash the vendor image? I read the OP, but wanted to double check so I don't boink anything. Thank you in advanced!
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] NepoRood:
Yes, flashing the ROM will overwrite TWRP, so you'll need to flash the TWRP install zip after you flash the ROM. Just follow the directions in the OP and you shouldn't have any issues.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Blackscorpion3:
We are working on some 'bigger' features to add in. Like I said in my OP5 thread, this is not meant to have every option available, but are adding more as we go.

Sweet
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Jiggs82:
Depending which device ur on 3 or 3 xl, follow this then :

You should be using the most current factory images/ or vendor from Google

Reboot to TWRP recovery or fastboot boot TWRP

Wipe/Factory Reset

Flash the ROM zip

Flash the TWRP install zip (Optional)

If you want root, setup the device first, then boot back to TWRP and flash current Magisk

I tried it a long time ago and it didn't. Not sure if it's been updated. From my experience, I haven't been able to get any custom ROM to support it. Only works on stock for me. I even tried to get Tulsadiver involved, but his zips did not work on anything I tried other than stock.

Quick question: How do I get the weather to show up on the lockscreen and always on display? The setting is turned on (Items underneath lockscreen clock) but it only shows the time and date. Thanks.

---------- Post added at 02:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:46 PM ----------

I got it to show but it's showing Celsius instead of Farenheit. I had this issue on another rom. All apps are set to use and show farenheit and the proper apps such as google and pixel services have location permissions. Any fix?
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] NepoRood:
I noticed in another thread that you had figured out that you need to be connected to your carrier network for weather to show proper, it's the same for our ROM. It was really an unnecessary toggle (Celsius/Fahrenheit), when it can be determined automagically by network :good:

I have absolutely no idea if this is ROM related, but cannot get the Facebook app to load. Immediately after receiving this phone, I installed this ROM, so I have no idea if this would happen on stock, or on other ROMs. The log file Facebook is spitting out is here: https://del.dog/wimahiqawa.sql

I cannot make sense of it, so any feedback from people smarter than me would be appreciated. I've tried clearing app data, uninstalling and reinstalling...all the usual stuff. This occurred on the April update, and now the May. Sorry if I'm being stupid.

Facebook is working fine for me. Try uninstall, reboot, then reinstall?

No luck, but thanks for the suggestion. It's likely not ROM related, so I do not want to clutter up the thread anymore, I just wanted to eliminate the possibility. I will do some troubleshooting on my own.

[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] NepoRood:
Vendor images come from Google, you download the factory zip and then extract it. Inside that is another zip file, extract that. In this you will find: vendor.img

Make sure you are on the right month, latest is always at the bottom, currently, Scorpion is using May. Next week, we will be updating to June :good:

Power on issues

Hi... i'm currently on an older version of this ROM, but plan to upgrade today... In the past, has anyone had an issue where if the phone dies (battery runs out), it is very difficult to power it back on? The charging icon appears and just stays there way after the charger is disconnected. Sometimes takes me a REALLY long time to get the phone powered on again. Just wondering if its just me. I'm hoping that flashing the newest version of this ROM fixes it.

Also, phone does not have to be rooted to use this ROM? If not, I wish I read it carefully and didn't root. Losing Android Pay sucks! :)
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] NepoRood:
Lowest my battery has been is 5%, I've never run it till it died. So, I don't know if it's ROM related or not, lol, and no, you don't have to root if you don't want to
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] 12Fully:
First time flashing Scorpion. I am having trouble with Substratum. Once I build & enable my phone will reboot (soft boot I think since it takes like 3-5 seconds). When I go to Manager there are not any overlays installed. I checked with the Substratum thread and they said it was most likely ROM or theme related. This error happens with all three themes I have previously used on other ROMs. I haven't used them in a while since ROMs usually have a built in dark theme. I'm just wondering if anyone else is having any issues.
