Man i just got my XL2 yesterday i was worried about the custom roms' development, i was undecided about getting it over the op5t knowing that there are already tons of custom roms despite its just 3months since its out. But then made my decision and its the right one.

Will probably test this rom and give some feedbacks. :cowboy:

Holy moly! Nitrogen joining the party! Missed you guys from the Nexus 6p forums! Thanks for the hard work!

Can anyone confirm if the project fi E-Sim is working? Thanks!

Great ROM!

Good to see the ROM finally makes its way onto the XL 2! Testing now...

Found that it replaces TWRP with stock recovery every time you flash it, at least for me.

It is, just tested it! Shows VoLTE as well. :good:

Thanks!

Also just so you know TWRP is now installed in the system partition, so you have to flash the TWRP zip everytime you wipe or flash over on the system partition.

True. The A/B partition changes a lot of things in the way flashing and root works.

I loved the ROM at my 6p.
Now i wanted to flash it on my Pixel 2 XL, but i can't get it to boot...

I was on the latest google release, go in to my recovery, wiped cache, dalvik and data, installed the zip and rebooted.
Now I'm stuck on the "Google screen" right after the "phone unlocked" warning.

What did i do wrong?

What twrp version do you have? I recommend you to remove any lock (if you have) before flashing the ROM. So the steps are:

1. Got to Settings -> Security -> Remove any lock if you have, set it to none
2. Reboot to bootloader, boot to TWRP-3.2.1-0
3. Wipe Dalvik and data partitions
4. Flash the ROM zip and reboot

It must work as I've tested it multiple times and also mentioned in this post.

How did you update to the February image? I suspect the slot your on now has the old January image? Custom roms flash an OTA zip. They switch slots. So if you updated to February in your active slot, you flashed the rom and it switched slots to the old January image. Won't boot.

Don't know what I've done differently this time.
But now it worked!

Is there a difference between wiping Dalvik and data right at the first screen in twrp and the advanced one?

I don't believe so. Twrp recovery now resides in the ramdisk of the boot image in both boot partitions. A/B

Yes, I think so. I have always used the options under Advanced since the time I flash ROMs. That never let me down

If you reflashed the rom again, you switched slots, again and now you're in the February slot. Good recovery!

Ah okay.
Is there a way to figure out in wich slot i have to flash custom roms and switch into that one?
Or did I just had luck this time it flashed to the right one?

Best way is to flash monthly update to both slots once a month. Then your all set for crack flashing till the next month.

Just follow the OP bro, and read what's been done already. Nitin and Golf c already have you covered ??

I'm wicked excited to see another custom ROM joining the party! Before I end up flashing I'm curious about the "exclusive" features like the squeeze and Now Listening, along with the eSIM (I believe one of the last posts confirmed the project fi portion, but still something I bring up because it's a unique feature).

Definitely just excited to see the work being done! And once I get comfortable financially I'll be donating to all the wonderful developers busting their ass to bring the community these ROMs! Honestly I'm probably gonna flash this without confirming the above. But I'm sure others will be curious. ? Cheers!
