Can anyone give me a link/steps to flash this using macOS M1 ?
wondering if I should follow these steps https://protonaosp.org/install/manual
Plug phone in with usb, disable any screen lock methods you might have set.I would really appreciate it if anybody can point me to a step-by-step guide (like those that exist for lineage) to install this rom from the stock rom. I ask cause I see there is a lot of stuff about formatting the device differently throughout the thread. I would like to end with having regular recovery (i know i need a custom recovery during the install process) and I'm fine with going through this process for updates after install unless the custom recovery doesn't cause issue with bank apps and google pay.
I'm afraid the guide needs to be even more detailed for me as I have been out of the scene for a while. I don't have TWRP recovery installed already. I don't need the magisk part since I don't want root. Also, is repartitioning no longer needed? And what do you mean by slot? Sim slots? Pixel only has 1 e-sim and 1 physical sim.Plug phone in with usb, disable any screen lock methods you might have set.
-reboot > bootloader
- boot to TWRP (I fastboot boot TWRP)
- wipe cache/system/data ( I also swipe factory reset after)
- flash rom (after rom flashes don't reset at this section, go back and tap to reset to bootloader, this changes active slot)
Now I repeat the above process and flash the rom to the other slot, not sure if it does anything so this could be a skipable step.
- reboot to bootloader
- boot to TWRP again
- flash magisk
- format data type yes
- reboot system
Setup Google stuff then open magisk shortcut. Install and setup magisk rebooting when prompted during install. Open magisk and enable zygisk in setting then reboot then enable denylist. I select the apps that check for root and they work fine after this.
You need your PC setup for ADB and fastboot. Get the android SDK tools. Search maowdroid on YouTube he's got great tutorials.I'm afraid the guide needs to be even more detailed for me as I have been out of the scene for a while.

Download
Installation
- Download from here: Source Forge
- This does not include OTAs, so you will have to visit regularly for security updates and the like.
- This ROM is currently distributed as OTA zips. Flash it the same way you would, in a custom recovery. Don't forget to wipe all data using "fastboot -w" or using my tool before booting the ROM.
Edit: thanks to the people that have donated. For the sake of transparency, I'm gonna publicise the donations i've received. a pixel 2xl where i live costs 200 dollars. I'm gonna be putting a counter here.Feel free to give me your hard-earned money, my pixel 2XL's screen is dead, so developing this ROM is a tedious and annoying process: https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/guidedflame
