Smoothness and stability are okay.

in terms of stock features, it's great, just like how you get on a pixel device.

@PixelBoot

Hi, when you update rom? You're the best guy, we have big luck since u build rom for p4a.
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] :
The July update just released, so be patient. Meanwhile you can check the build status by going to https://cp.pixelexperience.org/ci
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Gustl6500:
Hello, I haven't been here that long, what can we expect now?

is there another update coming with Android 13 or is Android 14 coming in August?

or is that even coming for the pixel 4a?

I'm totally excited about the rom, runs perfectly!

thanks to the developers! thanks in advance
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] :
The July Patch is now available for the Pixel 4a, and we might expect Android 14 as beta stage in late Sep - early Oct

As long as the device sources are updated, Android 14 will be available for the Pixel 4a, even after support ends!
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Gustl6500:
Thank you for the info. I already installed the July update. what is meant by the device sources? Will Google continue to do this even after support ends? Or do the developers do it? Sorry for the possibly stupid question, I don't know much about it, I'm not the expert.
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] :
Device sources (kernel,device,vendor trees) are the sources are needed to run an Android OS. These device sources are maintain by community, so it may still be support for about 4-5 years.

4-5 years is a lucky number, since an average phone can only have a 1-2 years of extended support, because of unsupported kernel version.
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Abomb:
I just updated and it seems the "long back swipe gestures" settings are gone, is there a a possibility to get them back?
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] :
Make sure that you installed the Plus version.
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Abomb:
I just double checked, I used "PixelExperience_Plus_sunfish-13.0-20230713-2113-OFFICIAL.zip".
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] :
Maybe the devs forgot to add that feature in
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] eddieleon7pc:

[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Vnavekul:
When trying to get root again via Magisk, I have encountered multiple soft bricks but I don't know how to get to where I want to be. Currently, the situation is as follows:

I have set the PE recovery for the Sunfish (Pixel 4a) to boot_a and boot_b using fastboot. I was just trying to regain access to my phone.

Then I patched the same recovery image using Magisk. But as soon as I install it via fastboot (I believe on slot a), I can no longer access my phone. I don't understand why (that's actually my main question).

Attempt 1 (what caused all the trouble) went completely wrong because I thought I knew it all and used the factory image from the Android website itself. That led to some really strange things happening after installation. So now I can access my phone again, but I'm back to square one. I'm running the latest version of PixelExperience, but without root.

Relevant software and hardware I'm using:

The latest version of Magisk and this link: https://get.pixelexperience.org/sunfish

What I have already found or tried:

It's mentioned above, but I really don't know what I'm doing wrong now to regain root access. I know that with OTA updates, you can prevent all of this by removing root beforehand. However, that didn't work with this update because, for some reason, it couldn't find an original version to restore. I think something strange happened with the latest update.

The July update is amazing!
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Gustl6500:
Hello, I have a question, where are the downloaded ROM updates actually stored? If they exist, I would like to remove them....they are 1.5 GB each time - I can't find them with the file manager...or are they perhaps automatically deleted after installation?

Thanks in advance!
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] abhish3kkk:
Hi, What is the general way to update? I see the update takes a lot of time if done via System Settings(>1 hour). Is there a faster way maybe from boot loader?
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] abhish3kkk:
There is a bootloop issue I am facing in July 24, 2023 04:14 but not in July 13, 2023. Clean flashed, normal upgrade, downloaded again, all failed to resolve boot loop issue.

July 13 build is working fine.

Edit: nope. everything I try end up in bootloops. Any suggestions are welcome.

I just clean flash the latest PE update and I'm facing battery drain and lags across the UI. Battery settings says that Pixel Launcher use much more battery than it should, and the launcher is lagging.

Any one is facing the same issues? Does a quick fix exist?

Thx
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Gustl6500:
@PixelBoot is now EOL sunfish? 😭

Side Pixel experience: No more Maintainer ..
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] :
this is completely normal as @PixelBoot is prepping for Android 14 release.

EDIT: he really did EOL it lol 🥲
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] eddieleon7pc:
So does it mean we're not getting android 14 as the device is now EOL?
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Gustl6500:
Oh no...

Where did you get the information? Is there a source?
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] aztorius:
PixelBoot is launching his own ROM with support for Pixel 4a. Check here https://pixelbuilds.org/blog/welcome-pixelbuilds/
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Koile:
So... What exactly is the difference to PE? I mean, there must be a reason for the development of this new ROM whichs features sound like the one of Pixel Experience. 🤔
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Koile:
Has anybody else got the issue, that your device gives you an update-notification like "Update to Android 13 now", even though we obviously already got Android 13 and there are no available updates?

Two of our Sunfishes with PE show this behavior. One started about a week ago, the other one today.

(I would try to make new PE-builds for all of us, but... I NEVER even built a custom ROM, so I don't know how to do it and even less do I know, how I should bugfix problems.... Is there anyone in here with a little bit more programming skills? 😅 )
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] aztorius:
I'm using my own PE-builds for sunfish and I do not have those notifications.

If I have time and if there is enough interest, i might publish those PE-builds as an unofficial ROM.
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Koile:
I would be potentially interested. 😅

Does your build pass PI?

Would a clean flash be required? 🤔
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] aztorius:
Yes it passes Play Integrity. And no, clean flash is not required but recommended as always.
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] inyong3:
I also experienced the same thing as you
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Gustl6500:
Has anyone tried the new rom from pixelboot yet? is face unlock included? does anyone know? Thanks in advance!
[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Koile:
I doubt so. He still hasn't released anything. I guess, he's going straight for Android 14, so it might take a while...

[Google Pixel 4a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] jimwallcft7:
I have been using it for the last few days. Very smooth. After first day, adaptive battery kicked in and performance is much better than OEM 13. Really great work by pixelboot. No face unlock in first release.

[OnePlus 10 Pro] btflyrose:
This was my first attempt at ever trying to put custom rom on a phone, so don't laugh too hard at me. I used the the twrp.img found in this forum, had it going right but when I did something trying to go back to stock for an update, it went into bootloader, but nothing else, no system no recovery. I tried to use the fastboot tool on here, and it reached this and stopped. Any help or is it done for?

PS, I did manage to follow one tutorial to a T, and did great my second time around.
[OnePlus 10 Pro] Canuck Knarf:
So your second round where you stuck at..?
[OnePlus 10 Pro] Canuck Knarf:
Have your tried getting factory file...boot img..flashing boot img through fastboot..?
[OnePlus 10 Pro] Canuck Knarf:
have you tried...fastboot boot " fastboot getvar current-slot " see what slot you on...change to other slot ...see if it boots up...?
[OnePlus 10 Pro] Canuck Knarf:
What model do you have..?
[OnePlus 10 Pro] Canuck Knarf:
the more details you give to more people can help you..just saying
[OnePlus 10 Pro] btflyrose:
I'm sorry, I've not been back online. Single mom, busy. Kids getting older, I have a little more spare time during school hours but this past week has been hectic.

I tried to flash the original boot.img with no luck. It goes black when it connects to a computer but vibrates but isn't recognized on my adb or the fastboot tool. So far nothing.

My second time was another phone, same phone though. OnePlus 10 pro NE2015 model.
[OnePlus 10 Pro] Prant:
The issue also could be that there are no real custom ROMs for this phone yet... you might have flashed a malicious file and killed the phone. Unless you were hopping to GSI. Only real suggestion is to try a complete flash from TWRP or pay for MSM.

If you can't get into recovery, can you flip the boot slot with the hardware combo and get in then? May be your last hope besides EDL/MSM.
[OnePlus 10 Pro] kouzelnik3:
This issues happend to Oneplus 9 series with bad update (F.19), but I see this issues for the first time on Oneplus 10 Pro. Is it really on OP10P?
[OnePlus 10 Pro] btflyrose:
How exactly do I do a flip? If it's even possible to get into recovery. So far, I've not had luck. :(
[OnePlus 10 Pro] btflyrose:
Yes, it's the 10 pro. I was too eager to root a phone and must have missed something, or done something somewhere. I've done several tablets, but not any phone. I've always had Samsung phones through carriers, so I couldn't figure knox out. But I've been researching and reading for months about rooting a phone, and decided that the OP 10 pro would be my first try. I'm not sure where I went wrong. I managed to get a second one, and followed the guide again, and well, that is the one I'm on now, and it seems fine.
[OnePlus 10 Pro] Prant:
AFAIK, according to @g96818 as well, you have to hold all three hardware buttons down, let it attempt to boot, continue holding the buttons and it should like shut off immediately right after the boot logo and switch to the other boot slot.

Yeah, the key to this device is basically do not flash anything to it, just boot from images. You CAN flash TWRP but I would personally recommend against it for daily use right now until data decryption is fixed fully. Just BL unlock, root it, and play with some Magisk modules like V4A, that's all we got on 10Pro for now.
[OnePlus 10 Pro] btflyrose:
Just some pics of the device...

But @Prant I'm curious to know, what is the difference between having the TWRP and not having it installed regarding rooting? Luckily, OP makes rooting for easier with unlocking the BL. But honestly, the confusion I've had the most understanding in the rooting process at this point is the whole difference between having TWRP and not having it, while installing Magisk.

(Y'all have to excuse me for my not having as much knowledge. I'm just basically a bored at home Mom with kids getting older, and tries to find something to get interested in that wasn't so old lady like. I've never been one to enjoy sewing, knitting, gardening, etc... HA!)

[OnePlus 10 Pro] Prant:
This is a bit of a dated thing from 6-8 years ago or so, TWRP used to be the gold standard for recovery on a phone. However, nowadays companies have gotten smarter and want more control over their device, so they add things like Knox (in Samsung) to keep the device "safe." OPPO/OnePlus has started doing this with the OP9 and the OP10 is their first attempt at keeping the device "basically" locked.

Long story short, TWRP is useful to do backups but I've even seen cases of backups on this device in particular failing when restored. And it used to be the main entry point, the first step to rooting any android device. However in recent years, it's become less and less necessary as you can do almost everything you can do in TWRP, through ADB and fastboot. Flashing is still a no go (on this device, thanks to OPPO magic) , but booting a patched image works for now. In the next years I'm sure even that will be secured somehow.

And, haha, there's nothing wrong with getting into tinkering, it's a helluva rabbit hole that's for sure.

Good luck and feel free to reach out if you have any questions.
[OnePlus 10 Pro] w_tapper:
Is there a reason that the OP10 doesnt have any roms but the OP9 has lots?
[OnePlus 10 Pro] Prant:
Easiest answer is that there is no free / public MSM tool. Which means no way to recover from a bad flash without paying OPPO, essentially. That's not very developer friendly.
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] Akash1338:
i've been trying to do this thing for like 4 hours idk what to do anymore pls help
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] rickymanx:
do you have a working data connection? sms too? try changing sim slot
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] Akash1338:
ye I do I'll try later
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] Akash1338:
didn't work
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] bozinsky73:
I have the same result, but assuming the device is already verified and secure (as stated by the closed lock picture) I think it's impossible to add a second account - or the same phone two times - to the verification request by pressing "add account and device" button.

So probably it's just a matter of bad translation in the popup, where it says check network and try again
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] Akash1338:
i never got to add this phone to the mi account like bind it or something idk
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] bozinsky73:
Your account is already logged and you already have secure locked device.

I'm telling we both have this message because of this.

You logged to your MIUI account when you run first installation and you had to connect to MIUI server for security check
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] Akash1338:
no i didnt have to connect it
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] Lollos1987:
i'm having the same issue too on a redmi 9, everything is fine mi accoint and i have mobile data on but still cant add my account
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] kutysam:
Same issue here
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] Akash1338:
found the fix from some guy on xiaomi.eu forum

use this vpn https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.shuttlevpn.free.proxy.gaming

Steps to fix:

1. Change Region Settings to Singapore (Settings App -> Additional Settings -> Region -> Singapore)

2. Use a Singapore VPN (Don't disconnect the VPN till the end.)

3. Log out from your Mi Account

4. Click on create an account, make sure your VPN is still connected and choose Country/Region to Singapore and create a new mi account

5. Go to Mi Unlock Status and it should work now
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] Azonia:
So it's most likely a case of incorrect translation in the popup where it reads "check network and try again."
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] bozinsky73:
Wait.. point n.3 means you have to log out from your account, so you can log in again but on a VPN ???
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] Akash1338:
u don't log in into the same account, u create a new one using the VPN (don't turn it off during the process) on the Singapore region
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] bozinsky73:
So I did not get the original request.... my fault.

But the OP pictures shows that the phone is locked and secured, being logged to the account that owns the phone. So, what's the reason to add another account?
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] D++:
I get the same message. But did find a forum where someone said it will still work, just press the button and connect it with your PC in Fastboot with mi unlock tool.

Tried it, "you have to wait 168h..."

Seems to work, tho.
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] Valwex:
