Pre-requisites:

* You are familiar with helping yourself out of awkward situations. You won't defame or complain at the developer of this ROM for your misfortunes.

* You are familiar with using fastboot

* Before you are ready to flash this custom ROM, you have to install the latest factory image from October 2021

* Bootloader unlocked

* You have created a backup of your ROM & data

First time installing PixelDust ROM, or coming from another ROM:

YOU MUST HAVE an Android 12 FACTORY IMAGE FLASHED TO BOTH SLOTS BEFORE YOUR FIRST TIME INSTALLING ROM.

1. Flashing stock ROM / unlock bootloader (If applicable):

Follow these instructions: https://developers.google.com/android/images#crosshatch

Boot the stock ROM.

Don't setup any google account, don't add a screen lock. Just go to Settings > System > Developer options. Enable OEM unlocking.

You need to follow this guide to unlock your bootloader.

2. There are now two options for the installation. Either via TWRP or via Sideload (for advanced users).

A. Flashing PixelDust ROM via TWRP:

​

​

Download the ROM and both TWRP files (img + zip) (for download links see above).

Boot fastboot mode.

Connect the phone to the Computer with USB cord.

Copy twrp-3.6.2_11-0-crosshatch.img to the platform-tools folder or folder that has fastboot in it and rename it twrp.img.

Open a Command Prompt.

At the Command Prompt type and press enter.

fastboot boot twrp.img

If requested, swipe to allow modifications.

Tap "Wipe", then tap "Format data" and type yes to continue.

Copy the rom zip and twrp-installer-3.6.2_11-0-crosshatch.zip to your device.

Tap "Install", select the rom zip, tap "Add more Zips", select the twrp-installer.zip and Swipe Slider to install.

When install is successful tap on "Reboot", then tap on the first list item "System".

​

​

B. Flashing PixelDust ROM via sideload:

​

​

Download the ROM and boot image (for download links see above)

Boot fastboot mode

Connect the phone to the Computer with USB cord.

Flash the boot image (this allows stock recovery to flash unsigned rom zip)

fastboot flash boot boot_aosp_xxx.img

Wipe userdata (required for first PixelDust/Android 13 install)

fastboot erase userdata

Reboot into fastbootd

fastboot reboot fastboot

Use volume keys and power button to select "Enter Recovery"

Select "Apply Update from ADB"

Sideload the ROM zip

adb sideload PixelDust-Tiramisu-aosp-crosshatch-user-xxx.zip

Reboot

​

​
