Nearly done! Migration cleanup is mostly done. There are a small number of issues left that we continue to work on, but all the heavy lifting is done.

[ROM][Nexus 6P][8.1.0_r38] [OMS] Pixel Dust OREO for angler [testing]
The code is based off directly from AOSP. We strive to keep the Pixel Dust Experience as close as possible to Android as Google intended. We add a decent selection of the coolest custom ROM features that would've been missed if they hadn't been included. Thanks to all development teams, e.g. ABC ROM, AICP, AOKP, AOSPA, BenzoROM, CarbonROM, crDroid, DirtyUnicorns, LOS, OmniROM, PureNexus, Screw'd and UberRom, we borrowed a few features and tweaks from. Special thanks to nathanchance and ezio84 for their work on the custom kernel used in this ROM.
The Pixel Dust Crew would highly appreciate if you would take a little of your time and leave your valuable feedback, your honest opinion or just say hello. If you should 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 related to any special apps or mods you flashed on top), then please give as many details as possible.
Special shoutouts to Roger.T for his amazingly designed wallpapers, logos and the best bootanimation I ever had on my Android phone!!! If you like our work, please consider to buy Roger the first beer, and a few more for the other team members and myself. Cheers!
BTW, please consider to take a logcat, because you know that:

Terms & conditions:
By downloading this custom ROM you agree that I, the developer of Pixel Dust ROM, am not liable in any way, shape or form for any damage done to your device. The Pixel Dust ROM is provided free of charge and does not come with a warranty.
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/command-line/adb.html
Once you have established a USB-connection to your device, first check whether you are authorized to use ADB.
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; see [http://developer.android.com/tools/device.html]
In case that you will see an error similar to this one (no permissions), then you need to do the following steps.
1) First step is to stop the server:
Code:
~$ adb kill-server
2) Next step is to start the server with root privileges:
Code:
~$ sudo adb start-server
3) 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 *
4) Now the output of the command we used in the first place should be something like this:
Code:
~$ adb devices
List of devices attached
HT69V0203274 device
5) At last, let's take a logcat.
The output of the command will print a logcat of your device. In order to stop the output press Ctrl + C:
Code:
~$ adb logcat
--------- beginning of system
07-18 12:51:41.517 436 444 I QISL : QSEE Interrupt Service Listener Thread is started
07-18 12:51:41.517 436 444 I QISL : QSEE Interrupt Service Listener was activated successfully
. . .
Now, you should reproduce the issue you would like to record a logcat of. Once you are done, use a pastetool, e.g. https://pastebin.com/, to share your logcat. Never ever think of pasting your entire logcat into a post. Or you may be prosecuted...or executed.
Official initial oreo based release (r7)
* Android 8.1.0_r38 July Security Updates (OPM6.171019.030.E1)
* Kernel: PixelDust-Oreo_2.0 - Linux 3.10.108 & incl. July security updates
Edit.... Second...! Looks great! Downloading now to test it out. Doesn't look like it includes Smartbar, which is a staple for me so won't be a daily driver (that and my OP5 should be here tomorrow.)
Do you mean Smartbar? Like, the ability to create a customized Navbar with more functions and the like? If yes, then I do believe the answer is no. I'll let you know when it's done downloading for sure though.
In my Pixel XL fingerprint security is available. So, my guess is that something is missing or didn't work as expected. Currently the angler build is beta, things tend to be broken...

That's a bummer! I really like your approach to the rom.
Still gonna try it out when I get home. But I use the smartbar because I find the phone to big and putting statusbar functionality in the navbar saves me a lot of trouble.
I downloaded and installed this along with elementalx kernel and the magnum opus viper4arise open sound system. so far this rom is flawless.........except for missing the fingerprint in security, i have the pixel dust rom on my wifes lg nexus 5x and it has the finger print and works just as well as this does for angler. Great job OP. i dont typically post on rom's, but this reminds me of the functionality and ease of use for all the bells and whistles that i fell in love with back when i owned the original nexus. So, that is to say, other than needing the fingerprint, which if memory serves me right, most people on pixel and nexus were having the same or similar issue even with the stock ota's. so lets go easy on OP, he/she might not have even noticed. especially if he/she dirty flashed it may have kept some of the previous api levels from a previous flash.
