Just received the replacement a couple of days ago and no way I'm wasting another one of my almost perfect (just misses covering the full screen) screen protectors for this one that cuts off screen and puts dust on the camera. Will the new one be automatically shipped to those of us that bought...

My unfounded-but-based-on-logic theory is that they're easier to break now because they don't adhere to the screen, so it's much easier to crack/break without the added rigidity of the actual phone screen against the protector.

Hello all. Just wanted to second this; it describes both my Pixel XL and Pixel 4 XL behavior exactly. A search showed this was the only other post about it. It's not a huge big, just a little annoyance but I thought the devs should know. Thanks!

The first thread is shady as it can be trying to game Amazon's algorithms, but seems "legit" as far as it goes. THIS thread, on the other hand, is just spamming the forum. Dude doesn't love the case he got for his Pixel 4 XL, he's putting another thread to get more eyes on the product in a...

Just to confirm, their customer service is still as good as it ever was. They already emailed with a solution and will be sending the replacement when production is ready. I heard from them between four and five hours after emailing. It will of course depend on time zone and what time you...

Ugh, another one in the same boat. Only the edges have adhesive on them. I would never have bought this if I knew that was the case. Very disappointed not only to have a poor quality protector, but to have ruined the just fine-but-not-full-coverage protector I pulled off to install this one. I...

They also said my email was marked as spam. I straight up don't believe that. So ok, this might not be a scam, but it's shady as it can be. These are the instructions they want you to follow: https://howtofreecase.blogspot.com/2019/11/how-to-get-free-google-pixel-4-xl-case.html Just....no. I...

Spigen Hybrid Crystal Clear here. I think it looks gorgeous with the panda 4XL. I don't notice the branding unless I go look for it, but definitely did when I first got the thing. It's like they got a laser writer and really felt like they needed to put it to use. The single Spigen logo I...

How obvious is the dot matrix pattern? I got mine a couple days ago but haven't put it on yet (ordered a different glass cover before getting the Intelliglass). When I looked at it out of the box it looked full to me. How close do you have to look to see if you have dot matrix?

I used gestures starting on on Pixel XL and kept using it on the P4 XL. I just like the bit of extra screen real estate at the bottom. It's also nice going back without moving a thumb to the bottom of the phone. That drove me crazy when I used my old phone (gave it to my kid, who uses the...

I manually checked in settings and got the update yesterday at ~4:30 PM EST, for what it's worth. Locked down Verizon P4XL.

I have the Ultra Hybrid Crystal Clear and it's flippin' gorgeous. That said, it was also gorgeous on my OG Pixel XL. Problem is the TPU plastic on the sides (not the clear hard plastic back) yellows over time. It'll stay like this for a good six months or more but will eventually look dingy...

In! Why not? :)

Been running for two days without issue. Please don't quote your own post to reiterate a question an hour after posting. That's just an unreasonable level of impatience. This is a forum, not on demand tech support.

Didn't have time for a clean install so I took a chance and flashed the image to update (remove -w from flash-all.bat). Surprisingly it went off without a hitch.

I'm a bit unique for XDA in that I only run stock + ElementalX, so I just don't install TWRP. I booted the image of 3.3.1.0 and installed the kernel, leaving the stock recovery alone. I guess you could do that with Magisk too but I don't use it any more and couldn't swear to it.

Hadn't bought that previously because I never tweak your already great performing kernel. Dropped that coin immediately after seeing this post though. $4 is nothing compared to the number of kernels I've used over the years. Thank you so much for your hard work! :good::good: EDIT - Updated to...

I don't say it every release, but every few months I just have to - thank you for continuing to build the excellent ElementalX kernel!! :good: :good: :D

First, if you don't mind, please don't quote full OPs in the future. Apologies, but I can't answer your questions directly as I haven't ever actually owned a bullhead device. Since crDroid went out of development for the device though, I can't imagine it would be better to use way-out-of-date...

Sorry, it has been a while since I ran anything custom because of work. It is in crdroid settings. I think it is called quick unlock or something like that.

Sounds like you enabled unlocking via fingerprint at boot up. That never worked right in Oreo and was a carryover from Nougat. Disable that and you shouldn't have that issue.

Ahh, gotcha. Apologies. Truth is I have no idea. Our main developer added all of that stuff and I wouldn't have the foggiest idea how he did it. I'm sure if you know what you're doing you could find it on our git, but how to make it happen is well beyond my level of expertise. To the phone app...

This is a thread for a ROM on the Pixel XL. You need to go to the OnePlus 6T forum.

Merry Christmas! Thank you for this great kernel!

I don't build anymore, but no, there are no test builds yet. I'm very sure BHermes will post as soon as there is something to test. No need to keep asking.

No thanks; not having a public telegram channel is very intentional. Pie is actively being worked on by the team. It will be released when it is ready.

We don't have any public telegram groups. All support is provided here on XDA.

Anybody on Verizon used the stock or Verizon image? I always downloaded the regular one on 8.x without issue. Just wondering if the Verizon one is needed or if it's ok to ignore like it used to be.

Ermahgerd we are getting these in our threads too. I swear these people were dropped on their heads as children.

Ermahgerd.

That's what substratum is for. We will have P-like UI when we move to developing P (which, obv, will come after LOS does so).

UNINSTALL YOUR ACTIVE THEMES BEFORE DIRTY FLASHING. You will likely boot loop. Don't be that lazy. You can keep the theme apps, but any installed overlays need to be removed.

Dirty flash should be ok (assuming you're on 8.1 already), but if you have problems, -always- clean flash before reporting issues. For dirty flash, wipe system and cache, flash ROM & TWRP, reboot into recovery, flash vendor (delete overlay folder), flash gapps, and if you is it flash magisk. Done.

Working fine here on Verizon.

I know, right? I used to always download new gapps with a new ROM release. Marlin has been a -very- different experience all around.

Oh, I totally understand why someone may want to use it. It just isn't something we are addressing in the ROM. If LOS puts that dialer in, then it will be in. If not, it's up to you. It is totally your choice; that's the beauty of Android. :good:

There is already a dialer that works fine. Razorloves gapps does not include Google dialer. Thus, it is not a system app. Using that instead is not a problem and doesn't need a reason, it is just how the ROM is built. Bhermes21 just forgot to pull in the build fingerprint change to sailfish...

Works here on marlin, but I have to use the built-in phone app. Just dirty flash the ROM, problem solved. :good:

We just couldn't figure it out. It is giving the command like it should in logs. It just doesn't....work. It has been a while since we looked at it, and I haven't even built in months (thank you BHermes21 !!!) But that's what I recall from when we were investigating.

No idea, haven't ever needed it myself; sorry. Maybe some other helpful person will happen along. ;)

Kill app has never worked on the Pixels and we couldn't ever find out why. It's just a known issue that won't be resolved unfortunately. No idea about the data thing, never tried it.

Pretty sure that one is just you. Haven't seen any reports of that from anybody on any of our devices I follow.

Correct, it is blocked from download on the Play Store. You can download and install the apk and it works without issue. It just won't update itself like it would from the Play Store.

That will take some research. In most cases you can run a custom kernel/ROM that doesn't allow detection of bootloader unlock and not root. Or you can do that plus root with Magisk and have it hide root. Whether that works or not for your purposes is something you'd have to find out. I don't use...

The downside is the unknown - will Verizon/Google patch this unlock method. Chances of that are very high. They patched the first method within a few months. It is doubtful they will leave this one open. If you ever want root, it might be a good idea to err on the side of unlock now, for fear...

I had Gmail FC too, on dirty flash, but uninstall/reinstall seems to have fixed it.

Until it is patched after Verizon/Google see this thread/the XDA article, yes. Once patched though, there's no getting it back. EDIT - REMEMBER, if you are not back to 100% stock image on both slots when you re-lock, you will brick your phone.

One of our guys already owns one. Once there is a device tree, crDroid will soon follow. :good:

This does not work for the Pixel 2 XL (or Pixel 2). It only works on first gen Pixels.

Fair enough. He should also know Netflix doesn't allow installation from the play store on an unlocked bootloader. It can be installed via apk download from apk mirror though. Again, there are ways around this stuff, but you will need to figure that out if they are important to you.
