Well, i tried to install it few times, sadly, i didn't had success booting it, tried many things, wiping on OrangeFox recovery, TWRP recovery included on first post and few things, nothing worked, it never boots, it puts on logo then reboots into recovery and gives me this error

'--reason=init_user0_failed'

Tried to wipe data again and it's the same, tried to install ROM again and it's the same, i think the Fbe_V2 encryption is the problem, for now, for the people that do have the same issue as me, don't install this ROM for now, other people, do it if you want.
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Shivver:
I tried with FbeV2 recovery and still the same issue. Nothing helps. Will skip this ROM for the moment.

PixelOS 14 I can't use the Game Dashboard. I don't find any option that activates it, only in the Do Not Disturb tab that shows the activated option off, but it doesn't appear when I open a game.
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Shakhtar:
That is the issue, you're right about the encryption bug, you need to format the data in TRWP, then it will boot properly.
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] chuy19312:
In my case, i did tried that, i tried to format on OrangeFox Recovery, then on TWRP Recovery but it did never booted, i installed the ROM 3 more times and i did format 5 times but it gave this bug when trying to boot then getting into any recovery

'--reason=init_user0_failed'

I did even tried the "fastboot -w" command and nothing

The pop-up notifications of the applications do not work, the banner notifications only with the messages, and in WhatsApp it says that this version of Android does not allow pop-up notifications, Anyone having the same problem?
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] chuy19312:
The only way to fix the Camera App save photos on SD Card is to use the NoStorageRestrict module (i think), sadly, is not updated to Android 14, it works for Android 11 to 13, when it gets updated to Android 14, you can install the module or extract the apk file for that Android version then replace the ExternalStorageProvider app on /system/priv-app

With my other SIM card that has the 2G/EDGE/GPRS bands @ 850 MHz

I've been trying to install the latest rom (14.0-20240220-1356) but I always end up with an error stating

"Patching super_dummy.img image unconditionally. . .

Hope someone knows any kind of solution to that!

Hey! I have two questions as I'm looking forward to flash this rom. First is, is MiCam present and if yes, has the yellow tint been fixed? And second, is there the option to ignore the notch space (full screen apps)? Thanks.
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] shubh_n00b:

[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] shubh_n00b:
Could you let me know how it is after prolonged use? I was planning on switching because of the awesome customisations but held off coz arrow seems to have great support.

[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Rigby103_epic:
As of now (2 days of use), the battery life is good, the customization is top notch, the stability is nice and the snappiness overall is great. However, the updater is seemingly broken for now and I don't know for the ROM support as of now, last version was published on June 13th, we'll see.

When the developer really supports it than it should be better and better. The problem we have here is that are so many ROMs appearing, and all developers expect we should help with testing, and even when there are enough users that are ready to do that, some just leave the project. As for now, I see that PixelOS, Arrow, Lineage and PixelExperience are really good supported. I am on Arrow but I might test this one in a couple of weeks.

the update was still in testing, it got pushed to the updater last night

updater still has a few problems, it does show the correct changelog but download verification gets failed for some reason, but atleast it will let you know if you have an update, then you can download it from xda thread.

It will be fixed in the next release..

Hello,

I've installed PixelOS there's two days ago and I'm very satisfied. I was in LOS 17.1 but with reception call issue (I was forced to wait 10 secondes before heard my contact) which was too annoying.

So I use now this ROM (release 07/07) and everything's work : good job ! Thanks a lot.

I use Open Camera to take photo and videos, and on my previous OS, I was able to switch between the differents fronts'APN. I remember that I peharps applyed an API2Camera ZIP to have this option, but I'm note sure.

Someone know how retreive this option ?

Thanks in advance.

why this error happened ?
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Jatin Verma x821:
Same error happened with me in every ROM I used. Now that I'm on stock rom, this does not happen. Therefore my guess is new snapchat versions can recognise our device have unlocked bootloader or something, and they refuse to let us in. But that's just my guess, I don't know for sure what's the reason.

Well, tested it and all, the only recommendation i want to give is to give an option to change icon shape, there is not an option for that on "Wallpapers and styles" app and on Settings app

It do have an very good RAM management and all, even better than other Android 14 and few Android 13 ROMs

Edit: bluetooth do fail and gets activated after many seconds every time, and i do have the most recent firmware

On first start after clean flashing im getting looped between "checking info.." Justa a sec" and "checking for updates" wich finaly crashes the app and restarts the loop. Any idea?

- Formated all caches, data and internal storage

- Used the recovery img from the thread

- Flashed firmware by sideloading

Managed to skip that by doing a offline startup but im constantly asked to finish the initial setup. Cause of that i can't use any google service based thing.

Try to flash firmware flashable zip before flashing the ROM, it does fix many problems like wifi, mobile data and bluetooth, even if you had A11 firmware before

Edit to prevent double posting:

I do recommend to add an function to change icon shape on wallpapers and styles or on settings if possible, circle icons are kinda boring

Edit 2: CuH Kernel and Cryo Kernel don't work, and it's so sad since i do use KernelSU for rooting since Magisk do get detected and modules for hiding root and passing Play Integrity doesn't always work

[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] norz3n:
Greetings!!!

Say, are you planning to change the test signing keys to private for your build of PixelOS ROM for ginkgo/willow?

Play Integrity Fix developers and testers have found the reason why MEETS_DEVICE_INTEGRITY fails. Google most likely introduced signature verification of custom ROMs, and it fails if the build is unsigned or signed with test keys.

As an example below, on your PixelOS 14 build.

Spoiler content hidden.

This fact is also confirmed by a post by a PIF developer on Telegram — Link to Post

PixelOS users on ginkgo/willow would be extremely grateful if you would sign your ROM builds.

Thank you for your attention. Expect a prompt response or an update to the ROMs signed with your keys.
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] vasyl91:
I would also like to ask you to sign PixelOS with private key. It would solve confirmed problem with failing device integrity.

just install this rom, came from ArrowOS,it was all root and modules, switch to this because was problem with banking app and ewallet, so far work great,, but now not yet rooted on this rom, did a clean flash, exactly like the original guide on flashing

-fastboot > install the TWRP

-reboot to recovery

-sideload the rom

-wipe data, reboot.

i have a question tho, how to hide root and pass the intergrity check if i install magisk? iam outdated with the latest method to hide unlocked bootloader and hiding root, if you guys having some experience about this, please let me know.
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] migdeki:
Thanks for this ROM!! Working great, very smooth on my Redmi note 8 (I'm so thankful to still have options for this device in 2024 since stock support ended and I doesn't even passes the new google verification in stock even with locked bootloader). Device certified in Google Play and passing basic + device integrity. One thing that I do hope it gets adressed tho is the camera. It remains unable to save to the SDcard (that transference can be done manually, so it's not the highest bother) but Zoom also don't remain after the photo is taken. It's always taking full picture even when you zoon in.
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] migdeki:
Install it through apk. Idk why google does that. Sometimes it's available, sometimes it isn't. But it's working flawlessly, I have the latest version installed and had no issues with Instagram.
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Kaizer-8:
^^ Does it have:

1. App lock.

2. Clone app.

3. Pm/am status bar option.

4. Quick pull down (both left and right side)

5. Is camera opening from lock screen via quick camera shortcut or icon on the lock screen?

6. Sometimes awakening screen will stay dark and power key has to be pressed twice.

7. Does Google photos edit crashes?

8. How's battery backup?

Safety net, you already said passes.

[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] migdeki:
if update is not working backup your data and clean flash instead.
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] migdeki:
1. Not by default, you need to arrange your own

2. Not by default, you need to arrange your own

3. From what I've seen, it doesn't.

4. idk

5. There is the option but it doesn't open with the screen locked, it triggers to open AFTER you unlocked (for both shortcut and icon on the lock screen)

6. Didn't happen to me across all the time I've been using

7. Working normally here, editing just fine

8. Not particularly bad (at least from what I've seen) but my phone IS a 6y old device and I don't charge it to 100% most of the time
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Kaizer-8:
Okay and thank you for taking the time to answer all this.

So i guess I'm gonna stay with my current rom because pixelOS, as I tested it many times with each new update it got, in all these attempts I didn't like it and immediately switch to another Rom but after PE departure PixelOS is the closest Rom to it, so I visit it time to time.

Btw I'm using ArrowOS, it's running amazingly good, extremely good battery backup, I haven't seen this good battery backup in any other rom even PE in spite of having more features than PE. The only problem it currently has are the ones I stated above, specially screen on delay and photos edit crashing.

I'm gonna check crDroid as it's made by the same person of lineageOS and is still in maintenance. Also as we know lineageOS is the GOAT of all custom Roms.
