[ROM][9.0][RM1901][UNOFFICIAL] Pixel Experience Plus Edition [2019/10/13]

chankruze · Jan 1, 2020

I will personally recommend this ROM over Havoc & RR. This is the cleanest among all. Though fingerprint not working, it can be a daily driver.

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

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

Based on Android 9.0

Known issues
1. In-display fingerprint sensor detecting finger but overlay not working.
2. ~~It missed dialer & sms app.~~ (Fixed)
3. ~~Like RR, you have to create APN manually to use internet.~~ (Fixed)
4. Found new issue ? Report it here.

Prerequisites
1. Unlocked bootloader
2. Custom recovery installed
3. Vendor partition NOT wiped

Installation
1. Download the ROM, GApps (Optional), Magisk (Optional) from the download section.
2. Wipe System, Data, Dalvik, Cache. Do NOT wipe vendor
3. Flash the ROM zip.
4. Reboot

Note: In case of bootloop or reboot to fastboot, flash stock vbmeta.img with below command:

Code:

fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img

I forgot to add that and after @batsy25 encounter this issue, i remembered this.

Downloads
Global Version: Mega
Chinese Version: Mega

GApps: Included in ROM, Not required
vbmeta Image

~~Add APN Manully~~ (Fixed in 2nd build)

Update #1: Finger Print Service
At first i thought that i missed FP implementation, but i was wrong. FP is there and working accurately & faster then Havoc & RR. But unfortunately it's not visible. Hope i or someone can fix this !

From the logs captured live from device you can see FP working fine:

Full log can be found here

Update #2: Updated Test Build
* Tried to fix FP overlay (Failed to fix)

Update #3: CN Build
~~I am very disappointed that my cloud balance exahusted. So there will be no CN build, until this is fixed.~~
I did a little recharge just to build for CN variant, hope you guys can install this ROM.
Chinese Version is now available in O.P.

Returning to fastboot mode

Then format data and reboot, Recovery > Wipe > Format Data (type yes). Hope it helps !

As you can see in download (Global), chinese variant have a different system size. So if you flash it may(not) boot or maybe flash will flail. Chinese variant need a special build. But you can also try
this zip if you want.

Disclaimer: You are experimenting on your own will, i can help but i'm not responsible.

To make it flashble, extract the zip and open updater-script (inside META-INF/com/google/android) and replace below line:

Code:

assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "RMX1901" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "RMX1901" || abort("E3004: This package is for device: RMX1901; this device is " + getprop("ro.product.device") + "."););

with below line:

Code:

assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "RMX1901" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "RMX1901" ||
       getprop("ro.product.device") == "RMX1901CN" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "RMX1901CN" || abort("E3004: This package is for device: RMX1901,RMX1901CN; this device is " + getprop("ro.product.device") + "."););

Or simply you can just remove that part.

Now compress to zip archive & flash

returning to fastboot mode error solved. even if you haven't wiped vendor you have to flash the vbmeta.img then it will start

dan.man · Oct 14, 2019 at 12:33 PM
