@Partizanos @AndroidHQ254 I did a dirty flash today, wiped cache and dalvik cache. All apps I installed from play store keep crashing after the upgrade. But, none of the system apps or apps I installed from other sources (f-droid) crashes. Any idea why?

Only way to get apps to run again was by clearing data as well of individual apps. What boggles me is, why only apps installed from play store?
Ok, the issue is related to, "Unfortunately, this requires a clean flash (or involves the tedious process of granting the permission to each app manually)". So you've to give network permission to each app individually. And then the apps don't crash.

But, none of the apps can access the network. Even after giving network permission or clearing the app data. Everything is offline. Except, play store...

I really have to reinstall an app for it to be able to access network. Is there a better solution?

Ok. Finally I gave all apps network permission and then wiped cache and dalvik cache once more from recovery. This fixed the issue. So the complete steps for a dirty flash in this upgrade is,

  • Flash ROM zip (sideload or USB-OTG)
  • Wipe Cache & Dalvik Cache
  • Reboot
  • Give necessary apps network permission
  • Reboot to recovery and wipe cache & dalvik cache again
  • Reboot

PixelOS is an AOSP based ROM, with Google apps included and all Pixel goodies (launcher, wallpapers, themed icons, google sans fonts, Monet color based system wide theming, boot animation), a fork of OG Pixel Experience with improvements on the top of it. Huge respect to Pixel Experience team for their work, thanks to them for making this ROM possible.
In short a fully functional Pixel Experience with just the right amount of essentials.

Code:
/* Your warranty is now void.
*
* I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
* thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
* do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM
* before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
* you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.
*/

Can I write the /product and /system_root partitions with this Custom ROM?
Since Project Elixir 3.2 allowed write access with root, but 3.5+ doesn't, I'm looking for alternatives.

Edit: No I cannot. I tested them all and none grants R/W access...
What's the deal with this R/O lockout I want my R/W privileges back

Sorry man. We now use erofs in the ROMs. You will have to use stock or older ROMs if you need the r/w

FIY about Pixel Launcher:

For the people who still would prefer to use the Pixel Launcher, we have made a magisk module if you would still like to use it. You can find it here.
 
Hey @AndroidHQ254!

I just wanted to give you a shoutout for your awesome work on the latest version of PixelOS from April. I really appreciate the effort you put into developing this ROM.

However, I did encounter a couple of issues after doing a Dirty Flash. The fingerprint scanner stopped working and I couldn't set it up again. I kept getting an error message saying "Fingerprint setup timeout". Also, my PC couldn't detect my phone in Fastboot mode anymore.

I just wanted to let you know about these issues so you can work on fixing them in future updates. Keep up the great work, and I look forward to seeing what new features you'll add in the future!

Thanks again for your hard work.
 
Hey @AndroidHQ254,

I just wanted to give you an update on the issues I previously mentioned with the fingerprint scanner and Fastboot mode. Unfortunately, even after performing a Clean Flash, the problem with the fingerprint scanner still persists.

However, I was able to fix the issue with Fastboot mode by reinstalling the drivers.

Thanks again for your hard work, and I hope this feedback is helpful in improving the ROM.

    A fix will come in the next update without the need to turn off volte

    If the solution to the problem with VoLTE is fixed in git repo, I will be glad if you add a link to the commit to this topic - it's interesting to know what the changes will be. Thx
    The fix involves using the latest codeaurora telephony stuff since our vendor blobs are updated to be at per with lineageos one. The one from PixelOS has not merged the latest QSSI tag
