Update on my issue in case this happens to someone else.

Summary: After upgrading to Android 12 with this ROM, my phone was showing as a managed device owned by an organization during setup. As soon as I connected to the internet, it would force a factory reset within an hour or two, even after I tried going back to Android 11. No idea what caused it.

After many tries searching and almost giving up hope I came across this post: https://xdaforums.com/t/help-i-bought-a-google-llc-lost-device-on-ebay.3905351/#post-82556997

I gave this a shot and it worked on Android 11. I'm back on PE11 and likely won't be trying to upgrade again anytime soon. Here are the steps I took:

Wiped data from TWRP

Ran the deproduction and departition zips a couple times each for good measure

Sideloaded PE11 December release via TWRP

Booted into system with SIM removed

Skipped setup without connecting to wi-fi

Enabled USB debugging, connected to PC, authorized device

Ran the following command via ADB:

adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.google.android.apps.work.oobconfig

Verified that it succeeded

Rebooted back to system

Connected to wi-fi and continued with setup, no more pesky notifications (yet)

I tried doing a similar process in PE12 by hunting for and deleting packages that sounded work-related but was unsuccessful. Checked out some other resources and decided to leave well enough alone, I'm just happy to have a working device again.

If you have the previous build from febuary just dirty flash. It worked for me flawlessly so far!

Edit: If you had magisk installed you have to sideload it again .

Great job and many thanks to all who made this project happen! The rom is fantastic!

Is there any way to set it so vibrate works only when the phone is in vibrate mode? Currently, it will only vibrate if I allow vibrate under normal use with haptic feedback, which I do not want. I only want vibration enable when in vibrate mode.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] silvertrain78:
Fantastic ROM!

The only bug I'm finding is while using Android Auto (wired & wireless). When I turn on the phone screen with the power button during music playback, there is 2-3 seconds when the audio drops out of the car head unit and routes through the phone speaker (then goes back through the car system). This doesn't appear to be an Android 12 bug because I tested it with ArrowOS and it didn't happen. Neither on stock Android 11.

It only happens on PE when I turn on the phone display with the power button. If the phone is in screen saver mode and I activate the display by tapping it does not happen.

Are there any logs I can pull to help troubleshoot/debug this isssue?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Zleepr:
Anyone know why when I flash this rom, my TWRP becomes encrypted? I cannot see any files under Install of TWRP. I'm trying to flash Magisk. I havent set up a lock or logged into my Google account either.

This might be unrelated to the ROM so please disregard if so.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] reluctant_engineer:
Twrp Devs have yet to decrypt the storage for A12. They're working on it though.

In the meanwhile you can flash files through the adb sideload method.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] DatGuy_Shawnaaaay:
Sideloading it fails. Any suggestions on how to fix this?

Edit: I realised that the zip file had partially downloaded so it wasn't complete (but it had indicated that it was?!?). Got it working, though!
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Zleepr:
Thank you. I think the main goal was to root the device. Turns out I was doing it wrong for Android 12 anyway. I was able to do it the correct way with Magisk and the boot.img. All issues resolved now.

I have a big problem with this rom, after 2 or 5 hours the device is very slow. Applications are stopping and a restart is required. I try to factory reset but everything is the same

Hello! I would like to update my ROM, but can I update it via TWRP? I don’t have a PE recovery stock and I want all data and files not to be deleted.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] DatGuy_Shawnaaaay:
You need to use the PE Stock Recovery (since TWRP has decryption issues). It's not that much harder compared to flashing it via TWRP. Just flash the PE Stock Recovery and flash ROM via ADB as indicated via the website.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] kastik4:
No, you don't need PE recovery. I did everything through TWRP (resize, install and update the rom) since PE recovery was and maybe still is super buggy. In order to keep the data you only need to sideload the newer zip from TWRP and don't check any box that sayes anything about formating data.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] faizska:
Thanks dude, it's work! awsome!
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] xflbret:
This rom is okay. It's better than spending >$1,000 on a new phone, that's for sure.

There seems to be some sort of stability issue with Bluetooth. Any time the screen lights up for whatever reason, there's an interruption in the music. Also, at times, even though it says whatever headset is connected at times the music will play out of the phone speaker (this is three different sets of headphones, and my truck also, so pretty sure it's the phone).

I hope the devs will put this on their to-fix list, because it's really the only annoyance with this ROM (since I figured out how to disable google assistant, anyway).

do i need to use pc to flash this or i can flash using twrp directly? please help
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] 73sydney:
Most folks stopped installing TWRP on A11 due to the prevalence of bootloops which could be all the time, random, or never

You can try via TWRP if you have it installed, but i would learn how to do it via adb sideload via PC if you dont have those skills yet, as a backup...

Speaking of backup, before you do anything, backup anything (media/pictures etc) under/sdcard you love in case it goes pear shaped

Search or shout out if you need info on flashing from PC

So coming from pixledust 11. I would have to repartition and go threw those steps to flash this 12 rom? It's been a minute sense I updated my phone. What's required these days for 12 to run?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] ridenickel9:
Yes PE requires partition. There is a video in post 230 that shows that process. I would watch the video first and verify the status of your partition and also get a good understanding of where the files are and what ones to use. I would also just boot to TWRP to do this from fastboot as it seems to be the cleaner way to go.

I was wondering if someone could help me decipher a log file please as to why VIper4Android seems to keep crashing on my pixel2experience rom, build number 210817.036, everything else seems to work fine but when I am listening to music with V4A enabled after a short while it seems to crash and stop running, especially if I am using another app like Waze for example and sometimes it doesn't allow the navigation audio of Waze to cut in properly, not sure if it is an issue with the ROM or the just the app itself

I can see the exit status in the log file but I am not really certain how to decipher what is causing it or how to rectify it

Thanks in advance

This ROM is amazing, I'm daily driving it and it works perfectly except for only one minor issue. It seems like there may be a memory management issue, after a day or two of using the ROM apps started to close themselves even if they were actively being used but a reboot fixed it so far so maybe it was a one off. Other than that this ROM has been perfect and you do awesome work! Thank you!

[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] ridenickel9:
If you are on PE 12 you would have already parted, you don't change the table again, just back up all data you want and the do a clean flash 12.1.

The PixelExperience recovery image seems to be missing the sgdisk program required for repartitioning.

I've tried sideloading the repartition zip multiple times, and although no error was ever reported (strange!), none of the attempts succeeded. In TWRP (which contains sgdisk), I could verify that there were still only 13 partitions. Flashing the repartition zip in TWRP then worked.

Just sharing, might help somebody. I was having difficulties on repartitioning my taimen (128gb model). I already did sideload the stock partition table zip on both pixel recovery and twrp (3.6.0 and latest 3.6.1 one), but when i check the partition table using sgdisk command, it still shows my old partition table (not stock, modified one using parted). So what i did is i put the stock partition table on /tmp folder (adb push stock_partition_table.zip /tmp on twrp), and i flash it like a normal zip. Hope it helps 🫡
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] foolone:
Wiped data and clean installed this build - it is smooth and works great. Hopefully next build will not need to wipe data because it was tedious to re-sign in many apps, each requries two factor authetification :).
