Are there any special installation instructions to be followed for this ROM? Because I tried installing the official PE 10 months ago and that didn't boot on my device.

Another question would be whether any of the newer Gcam ports works on this ROM.

Thx

Nothing special, pretty standard instruction. Just Wipe dalvik/cache/data/system and format data from recovery, reboot in recovery again, flash rom, done. Gapps are included.

No idea about Gcam ports. You can try and report.

You can't get Gcam working on this ROM since it's stock based, Gcam only working full features on SODP, likes the official PE which you need flash OEM file, I'm not a poplar user, the Gcam give really bad results on SODP on my maple and SODP isn't as stable as the stock based, worse performance, if the PE 10 didn't boot on your device months ago, maybe that's the official one and you miss to flash the OEM?

Sony Camera doesn't work yet on Android 11 ROMS for XZ1 afaik.

No, livedisplay is a feature of Lineage and its not supported by PE, but the Plus edition has the color calibration.

Thanks. Two questions: 1) what are the differences from Pixel and PixelPlus? 2) Magisk 22 work?

PEPlus have more or less the same extra options of Lineage (network monitor, long press for torch etc), PE standard..not. Vanilla.

Magisk 22 perfectly works.
