Does clearing AdAway app cache/data help?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] abughassan:
No .. not help

I think not supported .. as what Mr [MENTION=5606168]willypratam4[/MENTION] said
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] chopt51:
Have you tried my AdGuard DNS suggestion yet? I'm using it now and it works. Long time AdAway user here and the DNS rouse is much easier and I don't have another app installed.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] jlokos:
My method is install adaway; update hosts; then add systemless hosts and reboot.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] abughassan:
Thanks pro .. But can I update hosts before enable application ?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] jlokos:
When you attempt to update hosts, it says it failed. I then enable systemless hosts and reboot. When I go back to adaway, I update hosts, it updates and tells me to reboot. The first step maybe unnecessary but I do it because I have done it previously and everything seems to work. Sorry you are having issues.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] abughassan:
Thanks pro . I will try again ... But ..

Just one question

Adawy asked you for root access?

Because it doesn't ask me
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] jlokos:
Very strange. Yes it does. Go to magisk, settings, su and see if you manually enable it.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] maddog808:
Are ring and notification volumes unlinked in this ROM?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] abughassan:
SU not ask me for root access .. So I won't find "adaway" there .. in magisk
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Edmontonchef:
They're linked by default but you have the option to seperate

i get a error when doing a factory reset failure to mount system and vendor any clue. Was on Colt OS i did flash-all.bat with the lastest factory Q bootloader still unlocked any help with this and thank you for time and patience keeping the pixel 2xl alive.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Edmontonchef:
That's normal after updating to 10, you can ignore the errors.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] ware84:
Ok thank you
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] maddog808:
Ok nice. And when you separate them, it actually works? I've seen other apps try to separate them in Android 10, and it never actually works.

What exactly constitutes a factory reset in TWRP? Would that just be Dalvik Cache, Data and Internal Storage? And does crDroid need to be flashed before going through what would be the stock setup process?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Edmontonchef:
Swipe to factory reset(data,dalvik,cache)

Flash crdroid + TWRP installer

Reboot system.

The setup process follows, just no squeeze

Still have to be on October stock first until the update comes
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] ProoN:
So, I boot into TWRP using the temp method (ie without flashing it to the device -- fastboot boot twrp.img) and it doesn't even recognize that I'm touching the screen. Completely unresponsive. Even when pressing the side buttons, it won't wake the screen at all (after it goes black.) However holding Power + Vol Down will reboot it after 10 seconds, then it'll go through the initial installation process. Mind, because I'm not able to actually DO anything while in recovery, it's still just the stock firmware. Anyone know why it might not be recognizing my touches in recovery? Is this version of TWRP still a bit buggy? Using twrp-3.3.0-0-taimen.img
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Badger50:
Try downloading twrp again straight to your pc, then try a different USB A to USB C cable. And make sure your platform tools are up to date. You may also have to disable screen lock before you try again...if you can get to your OS that is :good:
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] ProoN:
hmm. Well, I plugged it into another USB slot on here and that worked..

However, I'm now getting a "Failed to mount '/system' (Invalid Argument)" and "Failed to mount '/vendor' (Invalid Argument)" error when I try to Wipe Dalvik Cache and Data.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Badger50:
That is a common error since A10. Our partitions are only read only now. However, your zips should still flash fine :good:
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] ProoN:

Does anyone else having a random ding like a notification going off on there phone but nothing is there?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] ware84:
Not here.

But, if your screen times out does it turn off and back on repeatedly? Mine does an endless loop of off and on.[/QUOTE]

No i havent no issue with that. this game called brick ball crusher when i play it, it freezes up when alot of the balls come on the screen and causes it to become unresponsive where i have to quit the game and restart.

And some issue with cast when i screen mirrior to my vizion p65f i can see it lag continuously both with cast and smartcast. gonna try a differnent rom and report back.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] ProoN:
Also wondering this. I see there's been a new stock firmware up for a few weeks but I'm not sure how often crDroid will be updated. Wish I knew how to port stuff -- I have a lot of free time and would love to help in development of this.

Anyone have any idea on how to change the wallpaper? or is that just a bug that hasn't been fixed yet? Lock screen changes but not the actual home screen background.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] ProoN:
Not sure how I managed to change my wallpaper exactly but it IS possible. However, I can say that I was disabling everything Google-related in the apps settings (Clearing cache, clearing data, forcing stop and then disabling entirely.) Was also un-ticking every single permission for each one as well. I don't use GPS or any of that so I don't personally need it.

I tried pin-pointing exactly what caused it to change but couldn't figure it out, re-enabling every thing again once over, etc. The wallpaper stuck.

This release seems to be pretty stable. I modded the config to the touchscreen settings and installed a module for tethering, everything works great.

However I don't get any notifications on my device, LED-wise. I use GoSMS pro and have custom settings for specific people. It doesn't vibrate when triggered to either.

Also, when in Greenify and attempting to create a hibernation shortcut on the home screen, nothing happens as far as I can tell.

(Screenshots attached for the hell of it.)

[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] jlokos:
I noticed you posted a validus build on afh. Is that a March build? I loved ground zero roms on my Shamu
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Edmontonchef:
It's based on February as well, I rolled back and tried it out, seems pretty good.

Crdroid is good as well, glad to see more activity on AFH.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] jlokos:
Thanks for the heads up. It's not as easy as it used to be to flash different roms without nandroid backups.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] GROOVYJOSHCLARK:
In all fairness, Windows host files only contains the loopback by default to resolve local lookups. Host files are only used when needing to override DNS but hasnt been real life used in years (long before DNS was implemented back when we had WINS). AdAway rebuilds the host file in Android with thousands of lines, so yeah it is possible to do it line by line, but AdAway does it for you automatically and keeps the host file updated.

ROM is running amazing. As of setup I have had no issues and the device is FAST. Thank you.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Blackjubel:
I am pleased that you are satisfied with the Rom.

It's also not that easy to build Roms anymore.

Yes, a validus and havoc built.

[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] C.Hatfield:
Just wanted to throw a HUGE 'Thank You' your way [MENTION=6647671]Blackjubel[/MENTION]. I only picked up my P2XL early last fall & was horrified to find, practically ZERO development. I've been using (unlocking, rooting, tweaking) Android since the early days (Donut) & every device I've gotten over those years has had respectable support, even after the newer version was released.

Randomly stumbling onto your builds (AFH) the other day was a relief. Development has been getting better for this great device since the start of the new year & all the better to see someone else come around. Respect.

[* any chance you have a Bootleggers 5.0 ROM in the works down the line? It became a favorite of mine on Marlin-ran it exclusively until pretty much everyone bailed on it for the 3aXL]

What's your go-to for a log to capture a bug? I'm trying to capture a log on the screen turning back on with. Can you look at this txt file. I normally do not use a lock screen. The issue is if the screen times out, which is currently set to 15 seconds the screen wakes up on it's own. So if I have my phone on my desk and the screen times out it just loops off and back on.

I have flash the older rom and want to install latest rom, should I have to flash the rom again? Is there an online way?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] chopt51:
Flashed ROM again. Screen won't stay off when the screen times out. Keeps coming back on.

To test here is what I am doing. Lock screen is set to none, and time to screen timeout is set to 15 seconds. Now just watch the phone with screen on while in settings. The screen turns off after 15 seconds, then back on. I can't remember if any other Roms do this or if its just this one. I kinda prefer not to have a lock screen set.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] oneexclaim:
This is the most fluid android 10 rom available for the 2XL.

However, my problem is with the search bar. I cannot seem to get the google search bar to show up on the bottom of the home screen, under the apps like it is typically on the factory image. I don't want to use another launcher.

Thank you for this great rom. :)

Any idea how to keep the screen from turning back on with no lock screen? (Clean flashed)

I really want to keep running this ROM because it's the smoothest for my device. But the screen won't stay off. If it cant be fixed what other ROM do you suggest?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] GROOVYJOSHCLARK:
Did you check ambient options in display? I disable all of those for that very reason.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Neverfalter2015:
Same here. Lift to wake is very sensitive.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] chopt51:
I unchecked everything ambient. I don't mind the clock and notifications being on.

When there is no lock screen set up the screen wakes up completely. I checked after a clean install with stock settings. The screen won't stay off with no lock screen set after the screen times out.

---------- Post added at 06:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:04 PM ----------

No lock screen set. Time out to 15 set. Watch it go off and on. https://m.imgur.com/a/iSpkmpV
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] GROOVYJOSHCLARK:
Have you tried it with ambient services disabled though (everything turned off and ambient display disabled), and set the display timeout to 10 seconds? Try disabling even clock and notifications as that will wake and light up ever time. Without a lockscreen, it should still shut down the display once it times out (10 seconds if you test my recommendations), but it wont if you have ambient on. That being said, I always use a lockscreen so so I can only help so far, but it should work. If not, you could try another ROM but I suspect you will face the same issue without a lockscreen (assuming ambient services isnt to blame).

Also confirm what you mean by "wont stay off once it times out", I believe you mean, its still lighting up, thats exactly what ambient does.

Thats the first thing I would do, turn off ambient, then set a 10 second fuse on the display screen then dont touch it and see what happens. You wouldnt even get "deep sleep" if the screen is on, so thats important.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Neverfalter2015:
Not sure what is going on with yours. When my lock screen is disabled and lift to wake is shut off it doesn't wake on its own.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] chopt51:
I posted a video above. I will just continue using lock screen till it's fixed. Thanks for trying.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] GROOVYJOSHCLARK:
I am pretty sure they are saying that its still lighting up, which would happen and is the desired outcome when ambient is enabled. They noted, they dont mind certain ambient features, so its enabled, which means it will happen. The only way to disable it, is to turn off the ambient options but I think (based on what I am reading) this user has them enabled and then wondering why its doing what it is supposed to do (light up the screen). Which means we are not going to solve this for them, simply because this user HAS ambient services turned on (and doing exactly what it is designed to do, light up).
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Neverfalter2015:
Ahh I get it.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] GROOVYJOSHCLARK:
:D with this option set to enabled, its always on :p

This means, neither you nor I can solve this, only the OP can by turning it off (disabling ambient).
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] chopt51:
I understand what ambient display is. The lockscreen time etc. However this is something different. Even with ambient disabled. The screen completely wakes up. Off and back on. Awake. Not the ambient lock screen.

Do this. Turn your lockscreen to none. Set display timeout to 15 seconds. And leave this application open. Just watch it for 15 seconds and watch the screen timeout. Then it will completely wake up.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] GROOVYJOSHCLARK:
I hear you but I still dont think you quite understand what ambient services is or does, especially with the lockscreen ambient comment, not trying to blast you, but help you. Have you disabled ALL ambient services and it still happens? Meaning, clock, everything, and have the ambient turned off (send pic of your side)? If so, and its still happening, we need to figure out why. I have hunches, but only hunches because I am lacking crucial information you haven't given us yet.

Also, are saying you have an open app in the foreground and thats what is popping on the display? That would make sense as some apps are designed NOT TO GO TO SLEEP, so it wont, keep it in mind. Your device cannot go to sleep if you have an open app in the foreground and that app is written to keep awake (keep alive). Your device will never sleep because of the wakelocks waking it up as its designed to. Try again, this time, minimize all apps to the background, see if it sleeps and stays dark (I bet it does if you truly have all ambient disabled as well as no running apps in the foreground).

Just a heads up, I have been helping/developing Android since ICS, so of course I tried this long BEFORE I replied. I do not make frivolous recommendations without first confirming it works 100%, I do not waste my time typing things out if I havent first tested (or I would say, I havent tested this). I disabled my lockscreen and it goes black in 10 seconds so either you haven't truly disabled ALL ambient services and its waking still the screen, or you bugged it out somehow (OR you ave an active app in the foreground that is designed NOT to sleep). Confirm you disabled it entirely, and its still coming on, if so, then explain all mods, your install process, literally everything you have done to build the OS and set it up, as its not on for me, nor the other users so I truly expect to hear its not completely disabled. This is what the ambient services are designed to do, wake the screen.

Back to my "hunches", based on your last response and how you are leaving an active application in the foreground (BUT expecting the device to go to sleep and not light up) tells me you are missing a key piece of understanding on how wakelocks work. I suspect you are using an app that is calling the wakelock in the Android system, triggering the screen on (either by just the app itself, OR the ambient display triggering the wakelock). Either way, disable the ambient display and do not leave an app in the foreground or you will never sleep.

A snipped of android.devopler:

WAKE_LOCK

Added in API level 1

public static final String WAKE_LOCK

Allows using PowerManager WakeLocks to keep processor from sleeping or screen from dimming.

Are you running this ROM right now?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] GROOVYJOSHCLARK:
Of course, back when I originally sent this and tested this earlier this morning yes, of course I was testing this ROM and why I viewed the forums to help others and replied to yours (while using this ROM). At 5PM tonight, nope, I am currently back on 9 - CarbonROM as the battery on 10 ROMs suck so I rarely stay on a 10 ROM longer than it takes to help a user. I always freshly clean any device ROM I am helping with and testing with at the time. I do this so I offer only valid, factual results from my real-life testing. I am not the only one though that chimed in and reported the same results as me so if you need someone currently on this ROM, the other poster had no issues going to sleep so they can work with you.

I am guessing you didnt test anything I recommended instead, argued back. That plus haven't you provided further information so that's far as I can help. Others may chime in, but not me, I am done and not flashing back to 10 just to test things I already have tested for users who do not take my recommendations and instead ignore and argue. Its a waste of my time to continue this when you do your own thing and do not give us the information we requested, instead you question me if I am on this ROM.

Good luck

You are actually no help at all. And everything I read from you is a disrespectful mess. Please, help me no further.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] GROOVYJOSHCLARK:
lol, out of all the thousands of people I have helped over the many years, only a hand few I couldnt help, of those, was because they just wanted to argue as they thought they knew it all so they couldnt hear the advice. Dont ask for help, then disagree with the person helping you while ignoring them, THEN get mad at them for steering you straight back on course. IDC, good luck, sorry I couldnt help you just dont give up on Android and I am sorry if I offended you. I am in NYC so things are touchy here so my patience is lower than normal but still, I was only trying to help you by getting the information that I needed from you (but never received from you) while also trying to keep you on track. Thats all I was doing but I get it, not everyone likes my methods and just wants the answer. I do not give out answers without teaching why it is the answer. I tend to teach people how to fish, rather than just hand them the answer so they can then fix it themselves in the future and share what they learned to others in need. I do this so the teaching wheel (and helping others) goes round and round but not all users want to know or help others so I tend to rub them wrong.
