So I installed this ROM but now when I try to do anything with fastboot I get the waiting for device message then when I restart it says

FAILED (Write to device failed in SendBuffer() (Cann

ot send after transport endpoint shutdown))

fastboot: error: Command failed

Anyone know how to help? It worked fine before flashing ROM

*Edit* I figured it out. Just reflashed ROM and it worked second time.

Working flawless, both kernel and rom make my phone snappier, google pay work without even root. Thanks for your hard work.

I still have one question tho, is it possible to change those tweak, i dont see the call recording feature, and unlike previous rom i tried i dont see more settings than stock rom.

Thanks in advances.
[Google Pixel 4a 5G ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] kdrag0n:
No, customization is not a priority for this ROM. I'd recommend using LineageOS if you care about customization.

Hi, I succefully installed the ROM and the Proton Kernel on my new phone and it is really nice. But now I want to root it too. How can I do that with the custom kernel already installed? Do I have to flash back the stock kernel? (How?)

ProtonAOSP 11.3.3 is now available with many bug fixes and under-the-hood updates.

Changes:

Install from browser for a quick and easy installation process (recommended)

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.

I can not get this phone to do a USB file transfer. I've tried 3 different cables, 3 different USB ports, changed the default USB setting in developer options and tried to change it manually. It just never shows up on my computer.

EDIT: Comes up fine on my fiances. Very weird.

EDIT 2: For some reason, it was shown as an Acer Device under device manager. I just uninstalled it, unplugged it, and plugged it back in and it worked.

Hello everyone and thank you for your immense work and desire to help others

I have recently received my pixel 4a 5G and I would like to try to speed up the smartphone with a Rom & Kernel and given the rust, since I flashed it the last time, in addition to the blle sensations of operation described by users there is also the tool dedicated for the web which greatly facilitates the process so very well

What I did not understand is this: it is enough that the oem unlock is enabled from the developer settings to start and if then the installation will be done automatically?

Thanks for the answers that I know will not be long in coming

Just wanted to say thank you for this ROM. I was running the Android 12 DP and all of a sudden, my phone went into some crazy boot issue where the Google icon would come up, it would boot to the UI, then just flip back to the Google Icon, and then back to the UI, over and over. I tried to fix it using the Google web installer to get it back to normal, and it just stuck on the Google Icon after that.

Used your web installer and installed and booted with no issues. I appreciate you taking the time to put this together, particularly the web installer. I hope more ROM developers will start to do something like this for the PIxel line. I know that using a custom recovery can be easier for developers, but the web installer is very nice.
[Google Pixel 4a 5G ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] wangdak:
Did you unlock your bootloader?
[Google Pixel 4a 5G ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] brazu12:
Thank you for providing the kernel. I have a very special issue regarding USB OTG Power.

I need 1.5A from USB OTG out from the Pixel 4A 5G to provide enough current for a connected USB Device.

I plugged in a voltmeter and measured 1.63A but it drops very short (appx. after 5 Sec) to 1A. Is there a way to keep the current stable?

On a OnePlus 8T it hold constantly on 5V/1.5A without drops and I think this has to be something with the kernel. I would appreciate it if this could be considered in further kernel updates.

I wanna flash my 4a 5g. Hawe it March update and locked b/l.

What's the prequizites i must do before i flash it via web gui?
[Google Pixel 4a 5G ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] MegaJuif:
you should start by unlocking the bootloader and follow the steps

Tnx a lot. I'll try it for the weekend :)
[Google Pixel 4a 5G ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] just a bird xo:
I'd like to start off by stating the obvious; excellent job on the rom and kernel!!

I was also wondering if it would be possible to replace the phone app with that of the stock google phone app. TIA!
[Google Pixel 4a 5G ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] kdrag0n:
For future reference, the web installer will guide you through unlocking the bootloader if you haven't already done so. The only prerequisites are a phone and USB cable.

I have no interest in investigating that, sorry.
[Google Pixel 4a 5G ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] kdrag0n:
That should be possible to do by systemizing the Google Dialer app with Magisk, but it will never be included in the ROM due to its proprietary nature.
[Google Pixel 4a 5G ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] zorzgeo:
I've didn't seen in 1st post does ROM have enabled stereo ringtones and stereo notif. sounds or must use third part apk for that (Magical or something else)?

[Google Pixel 4a 5G ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] zorzgeo:
My 4a 5G just now flashed wit success by 11.3.3 ROM (unlocked b/l before flashing)

Used GUI flashing and all was fine.

After that flashed ProtonKernel-pixel5-v1.1 image with a built in flasher and also all was good.

Now i'll take some days for testing :)

Do b/l must stay unlocked for further ProtonAOSP updates or need to relock?

TNX!
[Google Pixel 4a 5G ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] ShroudOfAgony:
My best guess would be you need unlocked BL to update further Proton since initial install requires it🤔

Also, currently running ROM+Kernel as daily. Works amazing so far, glad I did boot have to circumvent CTS check with Magisk 😄

[Google Pixel 4a 5G ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] kdrag0n:
It was not removed, recents text selection is a proprietary feature on the stock Pixel ROM that is not present in AOSP. I have plans to implement it myself in ProtonAOSP but it's rather low priority at the moment.

Sound related observation:

- I turned Off all Vibrations in System settings but phone still vibrating for Gmail, Viber and other apps and some Sys functions...

Some other suffs:

- Colors are the same as a stock rom, wifi 5g connectivity nothing better, battery for a bit better then a stock (lower drain on standby)...

Root is a modification that is not officially supported, so it does not necessarily belong in the web installer.

No Screen Rotation - Gyroscope Not Functioning

Hello - It's been a few years since I was last on XDA. I'm not a rookie, but maybe my skills aren't fresh. Anyway, to my problem...

I have a new 4a 5G that was updated to the latest OTA before I unlocked the bootloader and installed Proton. I went through the entire process of installing Proton, rooting with Magisk, and flashing the Proton kernel. Everything went [surprisingly] smooth and there were no issue during install. After all of the updates and setting up the phone, all of the phone functions worked great except screen rotation. I made sure all of the appropriate settings were toggled in Display/Quick Settings, but still no luck. I tried a variety of apps - G Photos, YouTube, Spotify - and screen rotation didn't work with any of them. I installed Sensor Test app and when attempting to test the gyroscope I received this message:

Not finding any solutions with Proton installed, I flashed back to the current factory image and screen rotation was restored. Once again, I flashed Proton, this time not rooting or installing the Proton kernel. And, once again, screen rotation has been lost.

I've searched this thread, as well as XDA, and can't find a solution. Any assistance or guidance would be appreciated. Thanks.

Update: With only Proton installed all sensor functions have been lost: gyro, accelerometer, proximity, etc. And after reflashing back to stock a 2nd time, all sensor functions are working as intended. Obviously if other users were having this problem there would be some chatter. Don't have a clue as to what's wrong on my end...
