Its never available right after a flash, Messages often needs to be updated, and then the user has to agree to chat features, and then it has to be enabled in the background. Patience is needed :)

Is Live Caption working for anybody? When i open it, it says I need to download some caption data. When I try to download it, the download just never starts. Tried downloading it on mobile & wifi networks, but it never downloads anything. Any thoughts?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] 73sydney:
Working fine for me, just tested with Vanced Youtube

Ive literally never seen those screens youre sharing, i just toggle it on from the volume flyout...

What did you flash, the gapps build or the non-gapps build?

I would first check for updates on Google Play

For reference heres my live transcribe screen
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Green-Bot:
okay. I flashed the non-gapps build.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] 73sydney:
Well im just guessing that where your problem may lie :)

Its a google feature, not a Proton/LineageOS one
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] hudsonhicks:
I am currently testing this rom for the last 3 days. excellent.. very fast and snappy..

The only issue i would say is.. get rid of LineogeOS camera.. it is garbage stock google cam much better.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
Yeah, that's not gonna happen. There are people out there who don't want Google apps. They need an alternative.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] hfmls:
Well Google pixel Without gcam? :)

Just go to Celso Azevedo and download it
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] 73sydney:
Fixed it for you...if you mention something, its always a good idea to link to it :)

Just a personal message that I'm passing along on his request. GROOVYJOSH (my old boss) wanted to let everyone know that he's moved on to pixel 4XL, and that his father in law died recently (very recently). He lost a long battle fighting coronavirus after weeks of being in the ER. He wanted to make sure that no one felt like he just up and left because of bickering and arguing. Instead, his family and life took a crazy turn and XDA is at the bottom of his priority list.

He wanted me to thank and apologize to anyone he upset during the last few weeks. Life for him in the last 2 months with his father-in-law battling to survive has been very stressful. This added an extra layer of stress that came out here in XDA. Losing his father-in-law, plus moving to pixel 4XL, plus the bickering, he felt it was enough to move on. He is not checking the forums or PMs for the foreseeable future.

I should also add that we don't really keep in touch much anymore so I won't be relaying any messages to him (so don't bother asking).
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] dimpoblimpo:
This roms my first jump to android 11. Installed using 73sydney's steps a few pages back thank you. Instead of transferring to temp I adb side loaded and everything booted fine with Nik gaps.

This roms a nice performance increase and having zero issues. I definitely notice a downgrade in battery performance when compared to offical lineage 17. My phone loses 4-5% battery in sleep mode over 7-8 hours compared to nothing on lineage. Also notice it dropping faster during the day. Amazing rom but if battery is top priority maybe stay on android 10 for now? Iv configured all gestures and features to favor battery by turning them off just like my lineage setup but it just doesn't compare for battery.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] 73sydney:
Currently this is probably the best for battery Android 11 ROM...im much like you, if i really want battery i stick with Android 10...currently on this for testing purposes...glad the install steps helped a little :)
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Simon2:
Is the Extreme Battery Saver mode, that came with the December feature drop for the Pixel 5, working on the Pixel 2 XL ?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] 73sydney:
Not natively...Google are not building for the Pixel 2 anymore, and didnt include any feature updates in the final build released on Dec 14, only fixes:

[Update: OTA now available] Google rolling out the final Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL update

The Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL officially reached end of life status in October after three years of updates. Final Pixel 2 update...

9to5google.com

And not on this ROM or any custom ROM, at least yet, unless the upstream code from AOSP/LineageOS comes to include it

In short: No
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] akhi24nick:
Do we have to format userdata every time we flash a new update of the ROM? Currently on 11.2.0 Proton AOSP. Want to flash 11.3.0
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] SuperShadow1021:
Is there any way to get the quick wallet feature to work when you hold the power button down? its a feature from the stock rom i like and was wondering if that is a feature that could work with your rom.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] palimatix:
Data wipe is not required when upgrading up the version in this ROM.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] ironLink21:
I currently have this working. All I had to do was add cards to the new Google wallet app and my cards showed up on the quick wallet feature.

What issues are you running into?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Green-Bot:
Sorry but I had to do a data wipe to upgrade from 11.2.0 to 11.3.0 I hope next version can be applied without doing a data wipe.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] SuperShadow1021:
The issues I'm running into is my quick wallet doesn't display at all when I bring up the power button menu the only controls that are working is the Google home controls for my smart outlet. I don't get an option to add google pay to the power controls menu when holding down power
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] ironLink21:
Correct you won't get that option to add cards from the power menu. You must add your cards to the Google wallet (now the new Android pay wallet : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.nbu.paisa.user, you can try the old Android pay app but the last time I got into that app it said that it was going to be replaced with the new one in 2021) and then your cards will show up in the power menu
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] ironLink21:
Ya I ran into this as well going from 11.2 to 11.3 it also says on the docs for this ROM that your have to data wipe as well. Maybe in the future we won't need to do that?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] SuperShadow1021:
I have google pay installed and two cards added to my account. That's the first thing I did but quick wallet doesnt show up at all
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Green-Bot:
Yes it does say but i think it is assuming the fact that we're coming to this ROM for the first time from stock or some other custom ROM.

When you scroll down the 1st page, our dev says that we only need to do data wipe if we're switching from another ROM.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] SuperShadow1021:
I also want to add that I used the Nik gapps stock package installed. If that helps
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] ironLink21:
Hmmm interesting ok try going to "Android's settings > system > gestures > power menu > cards & passes" and make sure that option is turned on
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] ironLink21:
Ahhhhh missed that in the docs. Thank you for the clarification
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] SuperShadow1021:
There is no cards and passes option to chose from
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] ironLink21:
Interesting I'm at a loss then. Mines got that option in the settings. Wonder why yours is missing that?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] SuperShadow1021:
maybe i can try reflashing the rom. if not that then maybe it was a feature in earlier versions and was removed in 11.3.0. just a thought. or is it something that is tied into flashing a gapps package
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] ironLink21:
I'm on 11.3 right now so I don't think it's that. It might be tied to the gapps package because that's what I used?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] 73sydney:
Doesn't exist on mine either. mind you i dont have anything added to google pay lately as ive changed banks and new one doesnt support google pay :(
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] SuperShadow1021:
So far I've tried a full device wipe. re flashing the rom In both slots. and re installing the gapps. Unfortunately now i am unable to grant sms permission to google play services. And that is not letting me use google pay. So I still have no idea if I can use the quick wallet feature
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Nerothank:
Flashed the ROM without any issues* some hours ago and I am very happy with it. Thank you for your work :)

(* apart from TWRP constantly failing - but that's another topic :sneaky:)

The only thing I am (slightly) missing from stock is the "USB preferences" notification. Skimming through the search results for "USB" in this thread I found the following conversation:

I'm guessing there really is no way to get those notifications back? Are there any workarounds? Quick links to this specific setting maybe?

It's not as if I were constantly plugging my phone to my computer, yet I still miss the convenience ;)

Kind regards

Nero
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
Yes there is, but the developer would have to add it back in, as they must have taken it out. Other Android 11 custom ROMs have the notification.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] 73sydney:
I keep testing other 11 ROM's but always end up back on Proton...

I was about to complain that this rom has screen rotation and screen auto brightness issues, but google this morning said something about the other pixels having the same issues... so yep, all is good here
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Khizar Amin:
One of the best ROMs for this device. I have a feature request. Can you add screenshot option to the power menu? My power button has suffered from some wear and tear over time and it doesnt always register button press. I am using edge squeeze for power menu and double tap on back for screen off but screenshots are a bit problematic. So if that can be added to the power menu, it would make my life a bit easier.

Thanks for your hard work!
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] dchriste90:
Fwiw, you could achieve this with Tasker (in the interim).

Create a task that does the following:

Input>send back button (to hide power menu)

Tasks>Wait for #s (delay as long as power menu hide takes)

Display>Take Screenshot (see Tasker help for configuration)

Set an icon (for appearance in power menu)

Add this task to the Tasker controls that are part of the Power Menu.

I have done this for a few things myself, though not for Screenshot.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Khizar Amin:
Thanks! I'll surely check that out!
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] SaberJ2X:
question, is the changing to light theme and night theme related to the screen brightness/rotation issues mentioned by google?

always had problems with rom with the night and day theming in apps... like facebook light and telegram

Anyone help me to install twrp on my pixel 2 xl, base on android 11. My phone is rooted thanks...
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] all43:
Do not install twrp it will cause boot loops, instead fastboot twrp when needed.

This ROM is still running so sweet!!
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] irmas5:
Do not install TWRP, just fastboot TWRP img.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] PaPaHanh:
Can you show me step fastboot, I don't know how. Thanks.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] irmas5:
adb reboot bootloader

In bootloader connect phone to pc, on pc open command prompt. Enter fastboot boot twrp.img
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] PaPaHanh:
Many thanks.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] irmas5:
On pc you need have USB and adb fastboot drivers.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] xconwayx:
Let's pretend that someone flashed TWRP to their phone instead of just booting into it. How would one revert back to the original recovery? Just find the latest update, extract and flash back?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] irmas5:
I think you can fastboot latest boot.img. Or maybe can work, if you going to bootloader and fastboot twrp.img and reflash rom. I don't know really.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
Since the recovery is in the boot image, extract the boot.img from the last update and flash it using fastboot.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] pablo9023:
what command is terminal?

There's a search box at the top of XDA, type fastboot into that, then from the drop down, select This Thread

There's 2 pages of search results/answers on how to fastboot because people are too lazy to use the search function and want to be spoonfed everything

Its highly annoying

Ive personally shared how to do it 4 times, not doing it anymore....use Search, its there for a reason.

Other members are not here to be your personal butlers
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
You should already know this stuff, or know how to find it without help. I'm not your babysitter and I'm sure as hell am not going to hold your hand. Ain't nobody got time for that, especially me.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] pablo9023:
@73sydney, @Strephon Alkhalikoi, sorry. I still do not understand well in this and do not know which command to use.

fastboot boot boot.img

or fastboot flash boot boot.img?

Therefore, I asked to clarify. + I do not know English well.

mistake mods please remove this post. thank you
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] rob219:

[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] rob219:
do not install twrp (flash it or fastboot install) or patch the boot.img with magisk for any 11 rom. fastboot into twrp from your windows computer flash rom and gapps if needed and flash the stock Android 11 boot.img. (if not included with rom so it will boot up) then flash the latest magisk file for root after you reboot the first time the same way. but do not install twrp, just boot it through fastboot.

(don't use if your phone charging port or your computer ports looses connection easily from wear because it will mess everything up and you will learn how to learn today to fix it on your own... maybe.lol i started learning how to break androids until they won't charge or turn on then fix them since i had my t-mobile mytouch 3g in 2009 or 10 and i was using a linux computer to fix them so not the easiest rout when everyone uses windows and mac)

@Strephon Alkhalikoi LOL! thanks, that made me spit up my morning coffee.

@pablo9023 the search function will help a ton but google also works. no one minds helping out but at some point it gets a bit annoying answering the same question that already answered a few posts prior. THIS will help you out. here is a small yet good guide on fastboot. i hope that helps. cheers!

A new ROM with the January security update and SafetyNet passing out-of-the-box will be released within a few days. The SafetyNet failures are caused by updates released by Google yesterday.

Thank you for the amazing work. Looking forward to it.

Would we be able to dirty flash it over 11.3.0 without wiping the data partition?

This is not a feature request. I only want to know if the December feature drop for pixel features(extreme battery saver, adaptive sound etc.) are on the roadmap? These are recently included in Scorpion ROM. Not sure about the adaptive sound efficiency but I guess extreme battery saver can be useful.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] amandeepparmar:

Anyone have problems with the camera? Since it was in stock it didn't open at all, but with this rom it does open (sometimes)
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] kdrag0n:
Adaptive Sound is already included. Google's version of Extreme Battery Saver is unlikely to be included because it adds proprietary code that is of little use, but the feature itself is simple and a reverse-engineered version may be added eventually if resources allow for it.

In general, features that require proprietary closed-source Google code in the system will not be included due to privacy and legal concerns.

ProtonAOSP 11.3.1 is now available with security updates, fixes, and minor tweaks.

Changes:

Download

As the ProtonAOSP project expands to support more devices, bandwidth and maintenance costs are increasing. You can help support the project and keep it alive with a recurring donation, or alternatively buy me a coffee. Everything helps, but a recurring donation is the best way to keep the project alive in the long term.

btw is it possible to enable advanced boot menu? Is it included?

Has anybody ran into any issues flashing the new update? I tried flashing it this morning and when i reboot, it just stays on the boot logo screen and doesn't move past that. Should I be wiping data first or is a dirty flash good enough? This is the first time i'm trying to flash an updated zip on this rom as I started on 11.3.0
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] 我是十七:
I am a Chinese user who likes your ROM very much, but a little problem when using your ROM bothers me. I also saw a version that can display text on the picture. I used the 10.1.95.8082 version. I tested various versions. Anyway, the more advanced version of Alipay software beyond this version will display a white screen when you click on some more detailed function buttons on your ROM, but it is normal on the official 2XL version of Android 11.I am troubled by the higher version of Alipay software The problem is still with your ROM! ! !
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] xconwayx:
The only problem I ran into flashing the latest update was that there was no keyboard upon boot. I hooked up a keyboard with the USB A to C adapter and was able to get in and install Gboard. Works fine now.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] SuperShadow1021:
How long did you have to wait after flashing for it to boot up? I just try flashing it to the inactive slot and then rebooting and it doesn't do anything but stay on the boot screen
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Green-Bot:
Yes it was same for me. I had to wipe the data and it's very inconvenient. Don't know when would we be able to dirty flash the updates?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] mrdope:

Im on latest version, all clean installed.

Rooted
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] SuperShadow1021:
I like this ROM a lot but having to wipe data with every update is a big inconvenience.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] SaberJ2X:
I've been able to dirty flash from 11.2.0 to 11.3.0... Not to 11.3.1 cause I've been rom hoping... But i only have some minimal apps i use though. Good luck!

As a seperate post...

Is the extra bright screen after a few minutes with the screen off is going to get fixed? Haven't noticed the rotated screen bug when unlocking the phone either at least

Edit, yup still has the rotation and increased brightness "issues", still this rom is amazing and i can overlook them a bit
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Lif3mau5:
You don't have to do "Wipe Data" everytime, I haven't done it since the first version and everything works as it should, but better and smoother than stock.

The ROM just keeps getting better, a big thank you to the developers for that! It would be nice if you could set the background in the notification bar/settings to a dark Amoled black.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] SuperShadow1021:
Do you have any certain way you have been flashing the updates?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Green-Bot:
Well I remember my post upgrading from 11.2.0 to 11.3.0, I had to do data wipe else I was in the boot loop continuously(dragon animation playing continuously).....I think it's time to write the correct steps in a post?

Guys, does location work for you? anyone can answer?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Green-Bot:
Nop, it doesn't work for me either. Though it can be because of the fact that I'm using OpenGapps package which is still in early stage.

Nope, doesn't work for me, too. I'm using installation with gapps from first post.
