Thanks a lot [MENTION=5123730]xstefen[/MENTION] for this great rom!

I'm not sure if i'm doing something wrong or if i missed something (i'm absolutely new to Pixel devices) but i can't mount system partition to rw in root explorer to add/change/remove some apps. Is there anything i need to do?

Just only used root explorer after flashing a magisk-patched boot.img.

I have not done much more, my p4a arrived yesterday.

I downgraded to 10, flashed rr, did some settings and used magisk to get root.

---------- Post added at 13:28 ---------- Previous post was at 13:21 ----------

I also used fastboot flash --slot all boot boot.img to flash rr boot.img which let me boot into recovery.
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] wragledack:
I updated the phone to 11 before I did any of this. Does this matter if I want to flash the boot and install RR?

Anyway, i flashed the stock 11 boot and at least now im back at a phone that boots to OS.

Trying to get to recovery leaves me hanging at a "No command" screen. I was in recovery before already, no idea whats going on.

Do need I to downgrade to 10 before I can install RR?

Did you happen to fix that volte issue with Verizon? I would really like to return to this rom.

I have Android 10 on my Htc M8 (Los) and on my Sony xz2c (Aicp) and there i can add/remove files with root explorer.

Is the selfie camera improved with this ROM? Not digging the soft Samsung-tier image processing on the stock ROM.
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] francescod:
Guys, got two questions:

-is fingerprint too way sensitive like on old Pix3a, for example when in pocket rubbing against legs while jogging?

-is it possible to properly run a rom without Gapps or with the minimum Pico ones and use Aosp dialer?

I'm asking it here because it's a rom with Gapps, might be helpful to understand if doable or not. Thanks
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] xstefen:
Pushed new update last night, excluded many gapps from the build as to retain aosp alternatives. Holy dragon R kernel included this time. Latest changes to RR as of yesterday. Not much new that is device specific. Sorry without Verizon myself it's hard to do much. If any other rom Verizon support works for you please let me know and I'll pick those fixes.

One warning to keep in mind, if you use an eSIM or electronic SIM, go ahead and avoid this for now. It's my next priority.

Also don't use google photos, to select qs background image, it doesn't play nice.

👍

Any fix for this?
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] xstefen:
Yeah I'll push an update, give me a bit, is that all? I excluded Google contacts, didnt notice that broke sync since my main service is an eSIM which currently isnt visible lol
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] TheSayaMan:
Everything else seems great. I did try downloading Google Contacts in play store, however contacts still won't sync and the ability to turn sync on is greyed out so unable to. When you get a chance, whether it's next week or next month, I appreciate the work you do. Thank you!!!

If I got a physical sim would this work on Google Fi?
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] TheSayaMan:
I think he is referring to simless not working so if you got an actual sim, it would work.

And to whomever was saying it, since Android 10, system is RO.

Can't mount rw
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] old.splatterhand:
So the question is, does this apply to custom roms as well? Or only newer devices?

On my Htc one M8 and on my Sony xz2c, both on A10, i can.

At least i can add, rename or delete files in system.

But i have seen, that with this rom there are only a few mb free, so there is no real chance to add something.
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] r0tt0r:

Can we have a GAPPS-free version?
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] xstefen:
Like no GMS period? Sure I guess, I'm cooking up a new build right now and I'll do that one afterwards.

Verizon: I have hopes for you. Looks like the upstream tag I started from was missing some things. Weird bc most every other one does. Just bad luck on my part, but then again we are talking about Google here so.....it is what it is.

Contacts sync should be fixed. I still excluded messages, chrome, photos, google contacts but not the sync adapter, etc. I'll test this before pushing (after I downgrade from latest 11 again), but ill just have to cross fingers for Verizon.

See you soon
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Archangel:
Fingers crossed,,,thanks for keeping us Verizon guys in mind. Hopefully this will fix volte.
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] xstefen:

Not getting a successful install. I flashed the boot image, went into recovery and factory reset, but when I try to sideload the zip I get;

"Error applying update: 7 (ErrorCode:kInstallDeviceOpenError)"
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Archangel:
So you had volte the whole time? Which means when you take a call, and while on that call, you can access data on the phone? I ask because on the previous update there was no option in the mobile network section of the phones menu for advanced calling like this which is specifically volte? I have an unlock phone from Google as well.
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] wragledack:
Several issues today:

- Cannot start or receive calls. Callers gets busy line and started calls end immediately.

- Cannot edit APNs (This User has no access...) Not using multiple users feature even, turning it on/off, switchting users back and forth to admin didnt help.

- When I lock the bootloader in fastboot after installing RR, i get the error that no valid OS is found. Unlocking the bootloader boots RR again.

- RR Recovery mode says: "Version (unknown) ()" - Does this sound healthy?
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Edmontonchef:

[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Archangel:

[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Archangel:
Thanks for the reply,,,can you tell me if you have an advanced calling option if you go to network & internet>mobile network>Advanced calling?? Also, if you download an app called Radio Switcher from the play store (which is basically just advanced calling options for your phone) you will be able to see as depicted in my screenshot that volte is provisioned (working) on the DU rom I am currently on and both data network and voice network at the top say LTE where as before on RR rom data network said 1x because there was no volte.
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] daemonspudguy:
No advanced calling (at least on the GAPPSless build)

Google Fi No Go Pixel 4a

Hello, I can confirm, as soon as I install RR Remix, the welcome screen comes up and it says "Connect to Mobile Network" "If you have SIM cards, insert them now."

Doesnt seem to work with Google FI related service.

*sigh* this has happened to me on other custom roms too.... all of the ones that are my favorite :(((((

---------- Post added at 07:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:33 PM ----------

I have Google FI, and a physical sim card in the tray that works with everything else. However, after installing this ROM, it says no SIM detected.

It does not seem to work on Google FI, even with physical SIM. Sorry.

It should, but does not work with a physical sim on Google FI.

This makes me so said, I love this ROM

how do I disable touch sounds, I already disabled it from sound settings.

some touch sounds are disabled but others are not. I searched through every RR tool customizations, couldn't find any.

it's a little like a 'click" when you touch some buttons, like app icons, Google search bar etc.

If your using Dirty Unicorns why are you here? Mentioning another devs rom in another devs thread is considered disrespectful. These people put in a lot of time and effort to bring this to us and they don't have to. They have other full time jobs and can't focus on rom development full time. I appreciate what we have and I'm sure it will only get better. Patience is key.

Solved Goole FI SIM Problem

****** UPDATE *******

I have found a workaround which seems to be working currently for me....

After installing RR Custom ROM, it cannot detect my Google FI sim card.

I set it up on WiFi and download the Google FI app from Play Store.

I received a new sim card with my pixel 4a, but kept my sim card from my nexus 6p and my original pixel devices.

Removing the newest SIM i got with pixel 4a, and placing my old pixel sim card in, powered phone on, and voila!

Mobile Data, Calling, it all works.

But, then I restarted and it went back to no service, no sim detected.

So, i removed the SIM and replaced the NEWEST sim back in the device.

It recognizes the sim and has been going strong for the last 12 hours.

I hope this can help someone in a similar situation.
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Archangel:
I dont know who you think your talking to and you might want to slow your roll brother, I was only mentioning DU as a rom that the dev might ask for help with for volte since it is working on that rom and as a reference for the screenshot I attached. This dev did post something on this thread asking us to let him know if there were possible fixes out there so he can make this rom better.

https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=83636583&postcount=76

As you can see, the DU dev is already graciously providing assistance to this dev which is the way XDA is supposed to be. I have been around android for a minute and know how things work and in NO way was I being disrespectful so you can take that accusation elsewhere! I am the first person to help others and the last to be disrespectful. Now, I DO NOT want to take up anymore of this thread with this nonsense, if you wish to talk to me in private and discuss things PM me! If the OP ever thought I was being disrespectful I am sure he would have let me know. Cluttering up this thread is wrong.

Replace the red part with the real name of the img file.
