This thread hosts personal builds of LineageOS 17.x and PixelExperience 10 for Mix 2. Full credits to Arian, Wight and others doing the actual bringup, allowing us to build upon the awesome work.

Small changes in my builds:
  • Default stretch-to-fullscreen (force apps to render in 18:9) - LOS official solution defaults to OFF, which complicates setup
  • Grey-blue DeskClock color scheme (when possible)
  • Navbar stays on the right side of the screen under 270° rotation (optional - set the behaviour with "setprop persist.ui.seascape.disable <true|false>" in a rooted shell)
  • Signature spoofing support from MicroG
  • Revived navbar layout tuning via sysui_nav_bar tunable
  • ...

What's working:
  • Everything?

Instructions:
  • Use firmware Stable V11.0.3.0
  • Use official TWRP
  • Download the latest build and optionally GAPPS (PE comes with GAPPS though, don't use any from external sources)
  • Reboot to TWRP
  • Flash the latest build, GAPPS and whatever other additions you need
  • Reboot

Extras:
  • Read here if you want to use unencrypted data - post is from Oreo thread, but still applies

I don't know for how much longer I'll be able to keep building these, but even if I do stop, these should still serve as a good basis for installing GSIs, so you can leverage many of them out there, including my own. As far as I've tested the only major bug on that front is the proximity sensor.

Compared to the test builds of last year...
- Now using official LOS device trees - you might have to clean flash even if you come from a previous test build by me
- IMPORTANT regarding PE - if you're clean flashing, flash the package twice so that /system can be populated properly. I have no idea why this is happening...

Have a problem while installing new PE.

Wiped everything (system, vendor, data). Installed zip (twice, as advised), no error messages.
TWRP warns on reboot that no OS is installed. Phone reboots to fastboot.
Tried twice with the same result. Tried re-downloading zip without success.

Ok, managed to solve the problem. As the device tree is from LOS, the solution is in the LOS thread. Need a recovery with support for SAR. Seems like official TWRP does not. So flashed recovery from the first post of LOS thread and the OS have installed just fine.

@AndyYan
Nice to see you again being active, and thx (of course to all users who made it possible) providing LOS 17.

I know, this is probadly the wrong thread for this, but openGapps doesn't provide GAPPS for 10. The option is always greyed-out. Where do i get GAPPS then?

You can find them on Sourceforge: https://sourceforge.net/projects/opengapps/files/arm64/beta/
However, not flashable on LOS: Gapps detect SDK 27 (Android 8.1). @AndyYan, can you look into it?
Update: found that PE prop.default file is fine, but for LOS it's old (says SDK=27 and some stuff more). I think you forgot to include proper props to LOS build.

Aw, I don't use GAPPS so I didn't verify that...
Does manually changing prop.default make it pass? Supposedly there's nothing in the device source dictating that.

There are several lines that need to be changed (for instance, arch is set to 'arm' instead of 'arm64'). I decided to go with PE for now and don't want to reconfigure all stuff once more.

What a treat to start 2020 to! Thanks for the new build Andy. I'll be reporting back if I find something buggy or similar =)

Weird, I didn't had this problem yesterday. I used "open_gapps-arm64-10.0-nano-20191209-BETA.zip" on LOS.

@AndyYan Thanks for your build of LOS, it's working like a charm here.
Just gotta need a patch for my provider APN. (I'm on it)

Thanks @AndyYan for the build. I have flashed the PixelExperience version and it is working fine. Using Parrot043's GCam version and the photo quality is also fine.
The major issue I have is regarding VoLTE incoming call support on my carrier (Airtel/India). Outgoing calls are fine, but for incoming (VoLTE) calls my phone doesn't ring at all, but on the caller side it looks as if it is ringing and I am not answering calls. For the time being I have switched to WCDMA mode.
Any input to solve the VoLTE issue is highly appreciated. I have tried creating an APN named IMS with type as ims, but that didn't work.

    Hello all, if you haven't read my statement in Telegram last week, here it is:
    Coronavirus has hit China hard, and the storm hasn't calmed down yet....
    Although I'm good physically, my lab has undergone either a power cut or network loss, denying access to my lab PC, which is also my only building environment. Furthermore, we are not allowed to return to the lab, so right now it seems impossible to resolve this until the storm passes.
    On the other hand, after acquiring K20 Pro last year, I've gradually lost interest in Mix 2, and it was your need and love for PE that kept me going. But what good would I still be if I couldn't fulfill that?
    And so here's the decision - if by the beginning of March I still couldn't get back to building, then someone please take over PE and build on. I figured this'd be best for the community.
    Thanks for your concerns - I'll try my best to stay good out there.
    Since then, AnggaSP has stepped up, and his PE test build can be downloaded here. He'll be putting up a thread later.
    On the LOS end, we're among the first batch of 17.1 devices, and looks like 17.1 is nearly ready. You'll miss out on a few modifications I make, but I figured nothing too critical.
    As of today I've regained access to my lab PC, but my statement still stands. I'm glad to hand it over to someone with more love and capable of more thorough testing.
    And with that I'm retiring from the Mix 2 ROM scene. Thanks for 2 years of company, and see you over at my LOS GSI in the future!

    Its customization-centric role has largely been replaced by Havoc nowadays, so with my limited SSD space I'm dropping that as well.
