I installed the ROM yesterday and ambient display has stopped working altogether. Does anyone else have it working?
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] spezi77:
What happens after a reboot?

If the problem is still persistent please share a logcat.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] 690sid:
A reboot solved nothing. Also I don't have root so a log cat might not be possible. I noticed however that Ambient Display has vanished from the settings. But when searched for, I can see it.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] vovabulatnikov95:
I noticed that if you want to get rid of short vibration for every single touch on navigation bar and therefore you turn off the setting "Touch Vibration" in Settings>Accessibility>Vibration then you won't get any short vibration globally. Even if you turned on for instance vibration for fingerprint unlock or short vibration for dropping a call and for the rest of apps you have installed which use short vibration. I guess this is not a fault of this Pixel Dust ROM but a different point of view of CAF in this case. I think it's so conceived. Although who knows, maybe it can be changed or fixed.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Master Cylinder:
I'm probably dumber than the average user, but I read the installation instructions to 'require' the latest factory image to be flashed. So I have been trying to dirty flash this CAF version.

Starting with PixelDust release 9 that I have been using, then I dirty flash the latest factory images, boots up fine and all of my settings and apps are there, etc ... Then I dirty flash PD CAF

over

that but I get stuck on the boot animation with the balls flying around for 20 minutes and then I bail. I've done it 4 different times holding my mouth this way and that, with or without TWRP installed, boot.img, etc .... I forgot what else I tried, other than lighting some incense and saying some mantras.

I was able to install it over clean factory images and it worked fine.

I finally restored my nandroid of PD r9, then dirty flashed PD CAF over it and I'm up and running for the moment at least. Going to put it through it's paces.

I must be slow. Don't waste your time on this - I've done it for you.

:eek:
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] natsousa:
Thank You @ spezi77
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] spezi77:
Well, you have done it your way. :good:

However, I would like to mention that if you come from PD r9, then you should NOT dirty flash PD CAF over it! Please do a CLEAN install.

Thank you! :cool:

Does the ambient display QS tile work on your end?
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] toasterboy1:
Thank you for all the hard work. This build is super smooth and fast. I dirty flashed before I read your recent posts and have not run into any issues yet. My bluetooth headphones work without problems. I have not had any forced closures and have been using it normally all day. Nothing negative to say about this build.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Master Cylinder:
But ... but ... but ....

Didn't you write about dirty flashing in the OP?

And if it wasn't for PD r9, I wonder why it wouldn't boot for a dirty flash of a factory images dirty flash of PD r9? (Which was dirty flashed over r8, and r7, and r6, ... :D)

Anyway, it seems to work fine, but I also have a flash from clean factory images which took me over 3 hours to get into some kind of usable form (thus my addiction to dirty flashing!).

EDIT: I'm flyin' with the clean flashed one for the moment.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] toasterboy1:
I just noticed that nothing shows up when you select settings in the built in gallery app. I use a different app but just opened the built in one to check it out.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Master Cylinder:
Okay, I see this from a post on page ,

which makes this in the OP confusing. Who does this refer to? Maybe it should say DON'T DO IT!!

---------- Post added at 09:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:36 AM ----------

I woke up today to a Zombie phone,

a clean flashed ROM

- it looks like it's alive, but it isn't. No app will open, or it will open to a blank screen and nothing will happen until a reboot. I think I saw this on the Marlin thread? If it won't open anything, I don't know if I can take a logcat, but next time I will see.

EDIT: Okay, on the Marlin thread it was mentioned that restoring apps with Titanium Backup caused some problems. I did it because I'm temporarily on a very very slow network and my impatience got the best of me, so I started restoring with TiBu.

I also saw a couple of more mentions by [MENTION=5091819]spezi77[/MENTION] of "DON'T DIRTY FLASH" on there as well.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] spezi77:
You also have a point. I should delete this paragraph until there is a second release build available for sailfish. My bad, I just copied &pasted the OP without considering what users could interpret..
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Master Cylinder:
No sweat. I'm sooo addicted to dirty flashing that I would've done it anyway, just to see. (A nandroid washes away all sins).
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] toasterboy1:
Take this with a gain of salt as I dirty flashed and am old (39) so don't normally swipe/gesture to type but it does not seem to work on default AOSP keyboard. If logging would be helpful I can grab one. I know we are having a whole dirty flashing is causing problems discussion so not sure if it is affecting everyone. Still loving this build.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] vovabulatnikov95:
I experienced that on previous releases with dirtyflashed ROM without a Titanium Backup. If that happened and I reboot the thing it passed away until next fifth-sixth reboot.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] vovabulatnikov95:
I noticed that Location now has another working algorithm. I haven't found levels of location as battery save, device only and high accuracy, only on and off. So I have a question does it have now some new intelligence algorithm or GPS is working all the time draining battery while location is on?
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] gingerboy92:
Not exactly a big problem. I'm quite new to pixel stuff, still trying to figure out how the ab partition **** work, confusing af. Does the xl share the same build as pixel?
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Georgi_Ko:
Would I be able to install the ROM if I try it on my Pixel running Android 10 Beta 6?
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] spezi77:
No, there is a dedicated build and xda thread for pixel and pixel xl.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] spezi77:
It's likely that a clean flash would work.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] GillaxGurilla:
Oi

I finally got moved into my new house and found time this weekend to 'upgrade' to PD CAF. Loving it so far but have an issue an a suggestion I'd like to share.

Issue: Is Slim Recents gone? Can't find it anywhere in PD settings.. 'Recent Apps' tab opens a screen to change my icon pack? Maybe I'm dumb.. Possible.

Suggestion: Dark boot animation? :cool:

Thanks

[edit] also.. Is wifi calling now working? I switched it on, but I don't have wifi at the new place yet and it appeared to act normal...

Anyway, great job on the new build
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] spezi77:
Thanks for your feedback! Highly appreciated ;)

Yep, no more alternative recents. Why? I got really tired of them, and I really love pie recents more than anything else. Icon pack is the only customizing option for recents. Did you give it a try?

I could switch to dark bootanimation for future builds. Or maybe upload a flashable zip? Let's see.

I have no idea about wifi calling, unfortunately. I've never used it.

Have a nice day :cool:
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Master Cylinder:
When I upgraded over PD r9, I got this vertical card-style recents display instead of the horizontal carousel-style -- pictures below. I've always hated the carousel-style! Is there a way to activate this vertical card-style I got by accident here?
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Major Stuen:
Runs smooth as butter. No problems yet. Although the less boring headsup option doesnt seem to work. It still showed heads up notifications from other apps than phone and sms.

Is "battery calibration" really necessary after installing a new rom?
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Stayn:
[MENTION=5091819]spezi77[/MENTION] First of all, thanks for this ROM, I recently got this device and it's impressive how good it runs everything with this ROM. Just want to ask you for a favor, I'll not keep bothering on this because I've some experience. Today I tried to build PAOSP for this device using your device tree, vendor tree, my modified kernel source and modified the DT to match the ROM I'm trying to build, but before it starts to build I get some errors and I know those are dependencies missing.

Would you mind telling me which repositories do I need to download to start building? Or sharing your manifest... Thanks :)
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Master Cylinder:
I'm having trouble getting the Google fi VPN to activate. It tries for a minute but then the icon in the status bar disappears. I got it back after jacking with restoring, wiping, deleting, holding my mouth this way and that, then it worked. But, after a nandroid restore it won't work again.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Master Cylinder:
Here's a logcat hopefully with useful info on the Google fi vpn snafu.

EDIT: After turning it off in the Google fi app, waiting 10 seconds, then turning it back on a couple of times, it seems to 'catch'. So, at least for now, I found a trick to get mine working.

[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Nonno Cicala:
I had the same issue of the missing 4G in the Preferred network type with AOSP based PD, so it's still present in the CAF build? :(

My device is the US version, yours too?

Couldn't install new version because of bootloop. Both dirty and clean flash
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] vovabulatnikov95:
Tried at first dirty flash where I got no mobile service and weird settings with symbols (you can see at screenshot) which eventually failed within a minute.

Then I tried a clean flash starting from clean August and I got a bootloop.

Oh no. Could you share a logcat please? Otherwise I am not able to help you guys.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] vovabulatnikov95:
I've dirty flashed it again and couldn't reach the previous result where the system booted up with weird settings, so I got a boot loop (link for the logcat below) that ended with auto reboot where it goes into stock recovery that says can't load android system.

[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Master Cylinder:
Ditto. First install was a bootloop. Got it to boot now except doesn't recognize the SIM and goofy symbols in settings. All dirty flashed, though I've got a fresh pie nandroid to work with.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Jc_master:
Well, what can i say, this is a pretty neat and polished rom, I got the pixel a few days ago, I was using a pretty beat up Galaxy s8 plus, one ui is a great skin, and i enjoyed the time with my s8+, but I missed magisk, and rom customization, and we'll, that's why i got a pixel, and what a better way to get back to customization that with this beautiful rom, as it says in the op, it may not have 1000+ features, but is butter smooth and it has my most beloved options, like the circle battery icon, the notification led settings, AOD that I missed so much from the s8+ and the theming options Wich are always welcome, up until now I've had no problems, it's running smooth, i clean installed the rom, the first boot got stuck into an endless bootloop, but I restarted twrp, did a factory reset and all set, I haven't found any bug so far, I would love to see the rounded corners square battery icon, but so far it has what i need

I have the 20190815-0657 version
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Master Cylinder:
Okay. I was curious since I haven't heard that anyone had been able to get the 9/18 version working correctly yet.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Jc_master:
I screwed up last night and had to reinstall the rom, i tried the 20190918-2022 build and it just bootlooped endlessly so i went back to the 20190815-0657 build, maybe dirtyflashing it will work? anyways, i also could not get the 20190918-2022 build to work.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Master Cylinder:
I've tried 14 different ways to put it on my phone. When I got it to boot, the SIM was not recognized and there where display problems.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Jc_master:
such a shame, I hope the development doesn't die
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Master Cylinder:
I think the devs and device maintainers are all focused on Android 10 now, since it's already out. Hopefully we'll get a 10 Pixel-Dust at some point. Sailfish is getting further and further behind the hardware development, though I've got my fingers crossed.

I'm rockin' pretty good with this CAF version from 8/15, for now. :good:
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Jc_master:
that would be sweet af, i tried android q for two days and hated it, it has no features, the phone over heated and the battery drained like it had no tomorrow, pixel dust on android q would be sweet, for now the 8/15 build will do fine.

A message to [MENTION=5091819]spezi77[/MENTION] and the rest of the residents of Asgard: Let there be a Pixeldust X build for the lowly sailfish.

Thank you.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Master Cylinder:
OUR PRAYERS AND TOADYING TO THE INHABITANTS OF ASGARD HAVE YIELDED RESULTS!!

Even though there is no official announcement or new thread, a new X build for the sailfish is up!

https://sourceforge.net/projects/pixeldustproject/files/ota/sailfish/

I guess these are beta "try at your own risk" because I've not seen a XL thread either.

ALL PRAISE AND PANDERING TO THOSE DINING AT THE GREAT TABLE! MAY CRUMBS CONTINUE TO FALL THROUGH THE CRACKS.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Master Cylinder:
Well! ANOTHER build is up.

I implemented the first one and it all seems to work, though the usual Pixel Dust customizations are bare bone.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] toasterboy1:
Thanks for being on the look out. Sorry to hijack but just saw you listed as being in Albuquerque. I'm in Los Lunas. It really makes the internet seem like a small world. Any problems with it being a daily driver that you have noticed?
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Master Cylinder:
Hey neighbor! As a daily driver it seems solid so far. I dirty flashed it over the first stock 10 that came out. I use Nova Launcher and it's not playing nice - the navigation buttons are overlapping the dock icons. I haven't figured out if there is a way to solve that yet but I want to use Nova. Other app bottom menu buttons are being covered over completely with the nav buttons of Nova as well. So either I'll see what I can come up with using stock launcher or hope there is an update or solution.

I just dirty flashed the build from today over the one from 2 days ago and have had a flake or two - a lockup and a spontaneous reboot. But, I just installed it again (went back to CAF for awhile today and forgot to make a nandroid). So now I'll see what's what. I might try a clean flash or dirty over that original 10.

EDIT: Dirty flashing the 10/13 over the 10/11 one produced another lockup like before, unlocking using fingerprint.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] toasterboy1:
Thanks for the feed back. I have no problems with using the stock launcher and have been needing to do a clean flash so I just finished backing up and wiping and am waiting on the initial boot. Finger crossed.

Update: Had to hard reboot the initial boot hung for over 7 minutes not adb access. Second boot worked. Wow! Much different than setup than 9. Not sure if I like it. Maybe that is why you use Nova.

Update 2: Not that I think it relates to the ROM but titanium backup will not run. Also just noticed while I'm typing swipe on the keyboard is not working.

Is there a way to unlock a Verizon locked pixel

Quick Google search results :

Edit: it's been quite some time since I used this method.. But after briefly scanning the last couple of pages on the thread, it seems there may be issues if you've updated to 10? Idk.. Just read
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Master Cylinder:
I've used TiBu without problem, though like I mentioned, I dirty flashed. I'll probably do a clean flash to see what's what.

Question: you flashed over a stock ROM, yes? When I tried to use the October stock, I had problems with it booting.

I will try the previous month when I clean flash. Also, I may try a clean flash of 10/13 since it has been locking up after the dirty flash over 10/11.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] toasterboy1:
Might be my problem I was coming from the 8/15 CAF build. Going to mess with it some more today. Still not sure I am going to like not having navigation buttons. This whole swiping and partial swiping to get to recent apps is too much for me. I must be getting old. :P
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Master Cylinder:
As I wrote in a previous post, I tried dirty flashing over CAF 8/15 also and it was not good. I had a nandroid of the 1st stock 10 to come out with apps and data re-instituted, so I just dirty flashed over that for the 10/11 build of PD and it has worked fine.

I believe there is a way to change the navigation buttons to the 3 buttons or the 2 buttons. Also, using Nova (or other 3rd party launcher) gives me the opportunity, though I've not tried to implement it yet on 10, to freeze the Pixel launcher in TiBu and have the Oreo-style card stack recents magically replace carousel recents. (found this solution on xda somewhere). For me, it's infinitely more usable - I just really hate the carousel recents.

Also, PD, as you know, has different recents options other than the stock solution, but I don't know if it's implemented yet on 10. (I'm back on CAF 8/15 until I have a chance to mess with it again. I love the theme-ing options on the CAF version. Hope they will be implemented soon on 10.)
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] toasterboy1:
Same story here back on 8/15. Could not get my TWRP back up to restore to system and vendor partitions. Installed from zip and then restored data partition. Funny thing is TiBu won't run now either. Might install stock, then install CAF, then restore Data and try again. Any problems downgrading from Stock 10 back to 9? Feel like I am getting off topic but read people were having problems unlocking Verizon boot loader on 10. Guessing you cannot sideload an older version.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Master Cylinder:
You have to reinstall TWRP and Magisk after you flash the ROM, right? Or fastboot the twrp**.img file. Just trying to figure out why your TiBu won't work.

If you are trying to get 10 up and running I would stay away from using any 9 with it, especially CAF (

EDIT

: actually don't know if using an AOSP 9 would work or not). Use the Sept stock 10.

It's been so long since I side loaded anything but seems like you can always do it, though don't take that to the bank.;)
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Master Cylinder:
[/COLOR]

I now see what the stock launcher looks like. It's interesting - I'm gonna try it for awhile.

Also, freezing the Pixel launcher doesn't work in 10, I forgot.

Pixel Dust has still not implemented many customizations yet.

I dirty flashed 10/13 over one of those September stock 10 nandroids with apps and data restored and it is working fine so far.

It's Pixel Dust that isn't playing nice with Nova navigation buttons, not stock. EDIT: I'm still not sure about this. You can select none, 2 or 3 navigation buttons.

I wouldn't flash 9 over 10 though your phone won't blow up or anything - it might work. I have nandroids and can put it back to whatever.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] toasterboy1:
Stuck on 8/15 until I can get TiBu working. I am not a professional but look like it might be a permission error as there are references to not being able to make directories. It also does not request root access. All I get is a flash of a black screen.

Update: Deleted folder /data/ user/0/com.keramidas.TitaniumBackup. Uninstalled app and reinstalled. Everything seems to be working now. So I can back up my apps and try PixelDust 10 again.

Update 2: Back on 10 and TiBu is misbehaving again. It loads but sticks at "All done!" It see my backup location occasionally and when I can get the batch actions to show there are no apps to restore. Also can not logcat to file even with su always comes out nonconvertible.
