[ROM][5X][7.1.2_r33][OMS] Pixel Dust for bullhead [2017/09/01]

dragos281993 · Sep 1, 2017

Pixel Dust ROM is an Android 7.1.x ROM which @spezi77 has built for his Pixel XL based on his own taste.

The code is based on UBERROMS including tons of their tweaks and performance optimizations.
The ROM comes along with ElementalX kernel. I have compiled it with GCC-4.9 and Clang 5.0.0.
On top of this, we added a decent selection of the coolest custom ROM features that would've been missed if they hadn't been included.

I would highly appreciate that you leave your feedback, opinions or just say hello. If you encounter a bug, or some kind of glitch that seems to be abnormal and you are pretty sure that it is related to the ROM (and not an app specific error), then please give as many details as possible.

BTW, please consider taking a logcat, because you know that:

FAQ

How to logcat like a pro
In order to quickly generate a logcat from your device, you require the Android Debug Bridge command-line tool (ADB) which can be downloaded as standalone Platform-Tools package:https://developer.android.com/studio...-line/adb.html

Once you have established a USB-connection to your device, first check whether you are authorized to use ADB or not.

Within your command prompt/terminal window the output of this command might look like this:

Code:

adb devices
List of devices attached
* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *
* daemon started successfully *
HT69V0203274	no permissions

In case you see an error similar to the one above (no permissions), then you need to do the following steps:
1) Stop the server:

Code:

[COLOR="Green"][B]adb kill-server[/B][/COLOR]

2) Restart the server with root privileges:

Code:

[COLOR="Green"][B]sudo adb start-server[/B][/COLOR]

*** The output of this command will be like this:

Code:

~$ sudo adb start-server
* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *
* daemon started successfully *

** Now the output of the command we used in the first place should be something like this (the number is gonna be different from a device to another, obviously):

Code:

~$ adb devices
List of devices attached
HT69V0203274	   device

3) At last, let's take a logcat:
Now, before executing the comand, you should try to reproduce the issue you would like the logcat to record.
Then execute:

Code:

[COLOR="Green"][B]adb logcat[/B][/COLOR]

The output of the command will print a logcat of your device that will run forever if you don't stop it. In order to stop it, simply press "Ctrl + C":
Once you are done, use a pastetool to share your logcat. e.g. hastebin or pastebin
Never ever think of pasting your entire logcat into a post.

I have no clue then. It's the first time I'm hearing about such a thing. You're gonna have to check it yourself. Back up your ROM then flash PixelDust and check to see if what you want is working the way you want it to work.

Have you already tried the ROM? We have included Google Connectivity Services which could be the necessary tool to get hot spot access to work.

You may check it yourself...

That can be done. We'll consider it for the next build.

Seems a bit laggy for me[emoji53]
Keyboard needs some seconds to show up.
Boot needs some time.

Maybe I did something wrong...

There's ElementalX included as stock. So you could tweak that according to your needs. It's got the default values which are aimed at better battery results.

I don't know what happened but I deactivated the statusbar-weather and it got much snappier in this second lol.
I will let it settle some more.

Very nice rom. New daily driver for me.
