Great ROM. Thanks for the developers.
Want to ask. How to disable or hide the dock / apps in the bottom of the screen that appeared in almost every pages, so i can get full screen with gesture? Thank you in advance.

Sorry for my bad English.

Thank you, now it showing white strip gesture indicator, can i hide it? unchecked the option in setting, but it still there.

That's because it's a taskbar indicator but not the real gesture indicator, you need to go Settings - Display - Display size and make display size bigger so the taskbar would really gone like a phone and now that toggle will work

I need to clarify that I'm not in before Feb, and I have fixed the Pixellauncher on pe source for all devices after Feb.

Fastboot instantly shutdown with "press any key" on screen means you are using mismatching connection,like PC is usb3.0 cable is usb2.0 pad is usb2.0

I connected it using a different cable and a different port on the computer. However, ADB can't see it now: it does not come up under .\adb devices even when I log into my laptop admin account.

Having said that, I can still boot into TWRP. Is there a way to force wipe data and everything else using TWRP, which as of now can wipe everything but "data"?

Attention!!!!
Since there is a fs change, the next update will require a clean install aka format data from recovery
Please remember to backup your data before next update(Current is 0324/5, update is coming)

I am not clear on these steps. I tried searching for a more simplified step-by-step guide but found none that I can follow straightforwardly yet.
Is there anyway you are able to simplify for a novice?

    PixelExperience for Mi Pad 4 (Plus) [clover]

    What is this?
    PixelExperience is an AOSP based ROM, with Google apps included and all Pixel goodies (launcher, wallpapers, icons, fonts, boot animation)

    Our mission is to offer the maximum possible stability and security, along with essential and useful features for the proper functioning of the device

    Based on Android 13

    Extra Features
    PixelExperience feature

    Whats working?
    Almost everything

    Known issues
    DON'T FLASH GAPPS, THEY'RE ALREADY INCLUDED
    --

    ATTENTION: How to flash
    * For full steps please check the PixelExperience wiki

    Since pixel experience is packed with pixel gapps, the system partition can't hold that large originally.
    So I switched to retrofit dynamic partition(aka super.img) and fastbootd(userspace fastboot).
    It's logical and won't affect the real partition table which means you can still go mi flash for fastboot or 9008 to flash the system/vendor partiton for un-brick.
    However this method DOES NOT support twrp.

    To install/OTA update this ROM, you MUST use the pe recovery which is provided with the ROM.(For official, it is also a MUST for publishing, OTA update won't need flash again after/before rom flash, just need you keep the recovery)

    For flashing recovery, use following command on your PC
    fastboot flash recovery <img name>

    Boot to recovery
    Tap "Factory reset -> format data"（This will delete all your data! Only need for first time switch to PixelExperience）
    Then tap Apply Update -> Apply from adb
    Start sideload by following command on the PC
    adb sideload <zip.name>

    # Or you can just put ROM on a fat32/exfat/ntfs sdcard/usb otg and insert/plug it, then you can choose it in pe recovery like twrp.

    If you see any "metadata" related error, just ignore it, it's common on the first dynamic partition flashing, and won't appear next time

    To switch to other ROMs, format data in PE recovery first, and then install another recovery then the ROM.
    Eg.
    1. reboot to pe recovery -> Factory reset -> format data
    2. Back to recovery home -> Advanced -> reboot to bootloader
    3. flash another recovery such as twrp
    4. press vol+ and power to boot recovery
    5. do another factory reset (and a format data if it is twrp)
    6. install(/sideload) another ROM's OTA zip like MIUI stock or LineageOS etc.(Warning: the ROM to install must have same kernel version with recovery. Eg. you can't use twrp-4.19 to format then install stock MIUI)

    Stay tuned

    FAQ:
    1. How to enable/disable the task bar below?
    Long press the space in taskbar or gesture indicator(the white bar)

    2. Why 90/85/75/60 still laggy or feel like 30hz?
    Google need warms up, so after you booted like for 5mins, it will be smooth on that refresh rate.
    And for OFFICIAL version, I can't provide any overclock, so the full ROM package will be only provided with 60hz.

    3. Why twrp get's error/Must use PE recovery?
    Check the "ATTENTION" on #1.

    4. What is 13 / 13 (Plus edition)?
    The 13 (Plus Edition) NOT means it's for pad 4+, It's PE+, the 13、13 (Plus edition) both available for Mi Pad 4/4+. PixelExperience Plus will have more custom features.
    Also, if you are already on normal edition, you can directly dirty flash the same date plus edition or newer plus edition.

    5. How to solve heating/power drain too fast on idle?
    Usually this won't happen when you clean flash this ROM, and often caused by LTE driver and a system application updated by the Google Play Store called: Android System Intelligence
    So, just try enable airplane mode and uninstall the update for that app then reboot will solve (Settings - Application - Find "Android System Intelligence" and click top-right corner button)

    6. How to flash certain partition with pe recovery? (like boot, frp, recovery, persist)
    Use
    fastboot flash partition_name partition_name.img
    OR

    In pe recovery:
    Advanced - enable adb
    Then On PC:
    adb push partition_name.img /tmp

    adb shell

    dd if=/tmp/partition_name.img of=/dev/block/by-name/partition_name
