@alin919 I'd very much appreciate if you made your own thread and released that for us. It's about as good as we're going to get, I think, and anyone who wants to flash Kirisakura's latest on anything besides stock will probably benefit.

Side note (with zero shade thrown at OP, for real, thank you for this build and your work) I've ditched this ROM in favor of CorvusOS. I figure, if I'm gonna be stuck on November patch, I'll at least choose a ROM with no bugs that has tons of nice extra features.

Oh and @alin919 did you have to do anything special to build, or did you just follow Lineage Wiki's generic build guide? If you do start a thread, any building tips for Cheetah would be a HUGE bonus 🙏

is anyone else having issues with issues with the not being able to call out or recieve calls?
I never had that issue. I had previously been on stock October or November ROM, then wiped, then installed this. But now I'm facing a similar issue with this other new ROM StagOS posted here on XDA, so I will try flashing the stock baseband to see if that fixes it.

UPDATE: I flashed the latest stock bootloader and radio from the latest stock ROM, and my problems are fixed.

i tried to install this updated version with my replaced google pixel 7 pro. but when i tried copying the vendor boot image and vendor init it says it passed on copying but failed on writing?

I tried to continue but when i installed LOS along with gapps it broke. it was giving me a trebuchet error and was only giving me a back button no task manager or home button. and it would freeze up at the home screen.

    hey,

    in germany there is still no march factory image on googles images site, does any of you guys know if i can use the global march build or should i wait till it has arrived on the german site? i mean global means global right?

    anyway, i'm using LOS now with not updated radio and bootloader, so far no problems
    Switch website to English... And you'll see march realese

    Used the official for 2-3 days and it was decent but I've flashed back to February stock.

    As I've said previously, the likes of Cyanogenmod made sense over bloaty s**t like Touchwiz a decade back, and flashing it was one of the first things I always did. But with Pixel stock being so close to vanilla Android in the first place, I can't really see what custom roms offer any more to make the stability of stock worth losing. But each to their own, and I can easily imagine it appealing to some still who like to tinker.

    Rooted stock is the ideal choice for me.

    Hey guys and gals,

    New to the pixel series phones and I have been running an unofficial build of lineageOS for several months. I have been running the March security update but have not updated any firmware. I noticed the panther builds are up now with March security but does not appear to contain any firmware. Assuming cheetah will not for tonight's builds either. How does one in this situation update the firmware or what options can be taken to do so?

    I have background and developed for a few years on here many years back with samsung devices. I made a huge leap from an s4/s5 to the pixel 7 pro so many things are quite different to me. Thanks in advance for anyone willing to share some information. I am very happy with my builds and would prefer not starting over (wipe for factory) but if I have to, so be it.

    As a rule of thumb, look at the changes included in the current build and if it has android_xx_xxx tag merged (AKA security patch), update the bootloader and radio for that month from pixel factory image. That's what I do.

    03/25 build for Pixel 7 Pro seems to be available now. Includes some stuff from QPR2 update. Not sure if it contains everything, as indicated in the post above. @waffle_bottom

    Edit: I clean flashed it over the March factory build, and it worked well. Both Vendor security patch level and Android security update are at March 05, 2023.

    I have been using lineage without gapps for about a month currently on latest build and very happy with it battery life is insane

    One thing that has happened twice in that time for me is the phone will freeze when using Organic maps out and about in traffic

    99% of the time it is fine using Organic maps

    I have to use the power/volume up keys to get the phone to reboot

    LineageOS 20.0 for the Pixel 7 Pro (cheetah) and Pixel 7 (panther).

    Known issues:
    • NOTE: This is an early-stage build, and may not be the most stable. It works fine for me as a daily driver on a Pixel 7 (panther), however.
    • The status bar is mis-aligned to the left by a few pixels, but this does not cause any usability issues, fortunately.
    • Dual eSIM doesn't work (yet), but stock is probably affected too until the feature drop
    • You tell me.
    Install Instructions:

    1. Be sure you're on the latest stock 13 build and have an unlocked bootloader. You may also be able to flash from GrapheneOS, CalyxOS, or another ROM.
    2. Go into fastboot mode (turn off phone and then Power + Volume down)
    3. Make sure you have the adb/fastboot tools
    4. Run fastboot flash --slot all boot boot.img
    5. Run fastboot flash --slot all init_boot init_boot.img
    6. Run fastboot flash --slot all vendor_boot vendor_boot.img
    7. Run fastboot flash --slot all vendor_kernel_boot vendor_kernel_boot.img
    8. Boot into recovery
    9. Press Factory Reset and confirm
    10. Go to Apply Update -> Apply from ADB
    11. Run adb sideload LOS_BUILD (Replace LOS_BUILD with your LOS ZIP file)
    12. To add GApps, go to Advanced -> Reboot to Recovery -> Apply Update -> Apply from ADB
    13. Run adb sideload GAPPS_BUILD (Replace GAPPS_BUILD with your GApps ZIP file, repeat this step if you want Magisk)
    14. Press Reboot System Now

    Update Instructions:

    1. Download the latest ZIP
    2. Reboot to recovery
    3. Flash the latest ZIP
    4. Reboot to recovery
    5. If you previously installed it, flash GApps and Magisk
    6. Reboot to system

    Passing SafetyNet/Play Integrity:

    For some reason, this ROM only needs the Displax SafetyNet Fix and Shamiko (or DenyList) on top of Magisk in order to pass SafetyNet/Play Integrity, which is a nice bonus. As of 11/17, I was able to use GPay with this ROM if you use Magisk, Shamiko, and Displax SafetyNet Fix.

    UPDATE: LineageOS has "experimental" builds for Pixel 7 (and 6) here. They aren't technically mine, but I'm also the reason Google Tensor GKI kernels build there 😁. Fortunately GPay still works with the experimental builds.

    bu.. bu. but the pixel firmware is already perfect 🥺🥺
    I still maintain this build for the fun of it, and for anyone who wants it. I use it mainly since the Pixel stock ROM is a bit bloated for me.

    Yes, the Pixel stock ROM is still excellent, even better than many other custom ROMs IMHO, and definitely when compared to something "stock" like OnePlus OxygenOS <=11 (yes, even pre-ColorOS OOS was trash IMHO) or Motorola's stock ROM.

    I did run Pixel 3/6/7 with both stock and custom ROMs but only ran OP/Moto devices with custom ROMs.

    And even if LOS isn't needed on a Pixel 6/7 now, it will be 3 years down the line when you only get security updates, and especially 5 years post-release when Google stops updating.

    I don't need LOS on a Pixel the way I need it on a OnePlus (or a Motorola), but it's still nice to have just in case.

    Sorry for the delay, I was really busy the past three months or so. I plan to release new builds of P7 LOS later today.

    EDIT: There are experimental LOS builds here: https://ftp.acc.umu.se/mirror/lineageos/exp/

    I'm using those above builds now.
