Ok, Can you tell me how do you check if the photos are taking drive space or not?

I would click some 20 pics or make a video and see if the Google Drive usage increased. Just a layman technique for me

I am getting the random reboots, too. I'm also noticing it will frequently make the power connect/disconnect sound without any cable involved.
Make sure you flash December stock.
There has been a problem with my xl2 with this.
I have noticed my screen goes black while charging and won't come back on. Charging icon is also not there,
Only by hard reset I have been able to boot.
It seems like a "Pixel" thing . December full wipe flash helped.

First impression: I see serious attention to detail.
Initial setup screen was in full DPI glory. Everything set up smooth. More testing coming.
Bluetooth audio was amazing. Usually my speaker is funny. I have full range .
Thanks for building this.
Your pixeldust 10 builds were always better than anything else out there.

how does this rom behave in terms of power saving, battery backup compared to stock firmware? 11 version PixelDust
Thank you. I wiil start trying to narrow it down.
So how often will there be updates to this rom? i plan to use this as my daily driver.
facing boot to bootloader after magisk 21.1.zip install instead of boot into rom.
without magisk innstall rom running every pixeldust one - at its best!!
UPDATE: magisk 21.1 is too old - must be installed latest Magisk-d0896984(21102).zip
Than all work as ussual - great!!
Thank you all devs for this piece of gold

I flashed the new v11 ROM, with quite a few problems, but it is working well. I do have a few remaining issues, and they're pretty major.
The ROM itself is awesome. Smooth, slick, and responsive. It took me a while to figure out the gestures since there was no navigation bar. I had to wipe my phone and install stock December Android 11, and I backed up everything I could before I did this.
These problems probably are not due to anything about the ROM itself, but more due to the Android 11 aspect. I'm hoping someone here can help. I had a big scare for a while after I flashed Xposed. I finally figured out how to get Magisk to disable all modules, and that saved me from that particular bootloop. My issues are with TWRP, fastboot, and ADB.
I know TWRP doesn't support Android 11 on this device and my first series of problems was a result of habitually flashing it. However, it is supposed to work when booted by fastboot. It did once, but when I put a lock code on the phone, it was no longer able to decrypt the volume (!). although I was entering the right code.
Next, both ADB and fastboot became flaky. Occasionally, they would recognize the phone, and I could do some work. However, after a while neither are working and I tried various cables, different ports, different computers (Ubuntu 20.10). Note I did install the November release of the android tools (fastboot version 30.0.5-6877874)
I also noticed that connecting for file transfer is now infrequently possible. While I get the connection sound, and the phone charges, I rarely see the connection notification that allows me to turn on file transfer. When I do, the connection frequently breaks during (or between) file transfers.
Plugging in a USB drive/stick is also flaky. I can sometimes see it, often not. I tried copying files and it didn't do anything. Fortunately I managed to restore many of my backed-up files before things stopped working, like the Titanium backups. Unfortunately, several of them don't restore, like bluetooth and wireless pairings, and a few application restores just hang. Still, I got enough to work with it.
Basically I'm in a precarious place now. I can't backup or restore anyting, so if I have to start over because of some error, I lose everything since my backup for the upgrade. Does anybody have any ideas? Suggestions?
Thanks!
Edit: I spent time looking through the Magisk 21 with Android 11 thread. I am also lucky that the USB connection options appeared shortly after I finished the post, so I can copy a bit more, but it might not come back for a while after this session.

What version of TWRP do you have? For me it worked on Android 11 without any problems even with the screen lock (I use pattern and not pin).
