Yes. All attached file in the LineageOS experimental folder worked this time around. Not sure what happened the first time I tried. Maybe the vendor_boot.img got corrupted
Development [ROM][UNOFFICIAL][cheetah/panther] LineageOS 20.0 for the Pixel 7 Pro/7
- Thread starter neelchauhan
- Start date
I made a dirty flash with lineage-20.0-20230125-experimental-panther-signed.zip and MindTheGapps-13.0.0-arm64-20221025_100653.zip. I installed all .img-files bevor with fastboot except the super_empty.img - file. I come from the November-build.
The rom works fine with my Pixel 7. Only two bugs I found:
1. You can only add 4 instead of 5 fingers (with November the same).
2.The Face Match-App does not work. The App say's I need a Wi-Fi, but I'm tried with Wi-Fi. After updating the Google-App, the App does not start anymore. Also the whole Google-Assistance-App seems not to work.
I think the second bug is a problem of MindTheGapps.
But thank you for this build!!! I only still miss the Face Unlock-App. But the finger-print works more reliable

I also used the same MindTheGapps Gapps. No issues with the Google App and Google Assistant. Try clearing their caches.I made a dirty flash with lineage-20.0-20230125-experimental-panther-signed.zip and MindTheGapps-13.0.0-arm64-20221025_100653.zip.

I have no problem installing the lineage os 20 jan build as its one of the easier roms for me to install using minimal adb and fastboot.. Will there be an official build coming soon? Also I want to know if they will be working on Google Experience OS too? Pixel 5 already has the android 13 rom for it.
I think this rom great on my Usa model pixel 7 pro phonei t's easily adb sideload flashable even I can do it. I'm not a rom expert either. With the experimental build are they working on an official build? Scrolling on chrome seems faster. I use Mind the Gapps. Sandbox play services.
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.

I'm using microG on the experimental build,
I installed Magisk + LSPosed + Fakegapps (signature spoofing xposed mod) and they works fine!
In the future, I hope that we'll get official builds so we could get microG/signature spoofing builds done by lineageos for microG team.
Anyway, I'm so glad we managed to get a new build, I can finally start to pet my panther.
One more little bug or rather a limitation: The automatic brightness (App Digital Wellbeing) does not work particularly reliably. Somehow it usually doesn't fit. I've already cleared the app's cache, it's probably more due to MindTheGapps. I can live with that and hope for improvement with future updates
weird google assistant works with me and i use mind the gapps.I made a dirty flash with lineage-20.0-20230125-experimental-panther-signed.zip and MindTheGapps-13.0.0-arm64-20221025_100653.zip.

New Pixel 7 owner here about 3 hours old I have unlocked bootloader and rooted using the XDA guide
Now the only thing puzzling me on this is how do you flash Magisk?
Do I have to patch init_boot.img like the XDA guide?
As the installation guide says it should be flashed in recovery so I am a bit confused lol
Want to be double sure I have been on One Plus ecosystem for the last 7 years
Actually just spotted another problem the second installation command - Run fastboot flash --slot all init_boot init_boot.img
Well the builds linked to on page 9 of this thread does not contain init_boot_img it has a file called super_empty.img
Now I sat here with my phone having flashed boot.img wondering what to do next fml

I am not sure what you mean when you say you are rooted but do not have magisks so I'll just assume you only have the bootloader unlocked.
How to install Magisks and root device:
*When doing this make sure bootloader is for sure unlocked*
1. Download Magisk APK file, latest platform tools, and the factory image that your phone is.
2. Open factory image zip and extract init_boot.img.
3. Drag Magisks APK file and init_boot.img to phone.
4. Install Magisks APK.
5. Open Magisks app and click the first install (right next to the word Magisk). Then click option "select and patch a file". Select init_boot.img and patch it.
6. Transfer the patched file to your pc.
7. Enter into bootloader using platform tools or hardware buttons.
8. Run "fastboot flash init_boot [magskpatchedfile.img]" using platform tools.
[magiskspatchedfile.img] = path to file you patched
9. Reboot and open Magisks to see if installed correctly.
I am already rooted on the stock rom ie I have magisk installed currently

You had to ask right...haha it stopped working...now its just one app at a time, back to trebuchet for now1 -
2Used 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.2
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.2
Standard Procedere:
- Install kdrag0n or Displax's safetyNet Fix
- Open Magisk
- Tap Modules icon
- Tap Install from storage
- Navigate to the kdrag0n SafetyNet Fix or Displax's SafetyNet Fix file you downloaded.
- Tap the kdrag0n SafetyNet Fix or Displax's SafetyNet Fix file.
- Tap the check mark (✓ at the bottom) to start the installation.
- After it installs tap the Save icon to save the log
- Tap Reboot.
- Settings for Magisk
- Open Magisk App
- Tap the Setup icon.
- Scroll down to App and set the Update Channel to Canary.
- Scroll down to Check Updates and enable it.
- Scroll down to Magisk and enable Zygisk.
- Enable Denylist
- Tap Configure DenyList => Tap 3 Dot Menu => Check ✓ Show system apps => Check ✓ Google Play Store, Google Pay, Google Wallet etc.
- Scroll down to Superuser and enable Enable Biometric Authentication.
- Get Device Certified Clear Google Play Store, Google Play Services, Google Pay, Google Wallet, etc. data[/B]
- Turn Airplane mode on
- Open Settings
- Tap Apps & notifications
- Tap see all...
- Tap three dot menu
- Tap Show system
- Scroll down to Google Play Store
- Tap Storage & Cache
- Tap Clear storage
Note: Repeat the 3 steps above for Google Play Services, Google Pay, Google Wallet, etc. - reboot
- Turn Airplane mode off
- Check Device Certification, It may take 24 hours for Device Certification
- Open Google Play Store app
- Tap Menu - Circle top right
- Tap Settings
- Tap About
- Check Play protect certification
203/25 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, 2023.1I 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 - Install kdrag0n or Displax's safetyNet Fix

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.
- 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.
- Go into fastboot mode (turn off phone and then Power + Volume down)
- Make sure you have the adb/fastboot tools
- Run
fastboot flash --slot all boot boot.img - Run
fastboot flash --slot all init_boot init_boot.img - Run
fastboot flash --slot all vendor_boot vendor_boot.img - Run
fastboot flash --slot all vendor_kernel_boot vendor_kernel_boot.img - Boot into recovery
- Press Factory Reset and confirm
- Go to Apply Update -> Apply from ADB
- Run
adb sideload LOS_BUILD(Replace LOS_BUILD with your LOS ZIP file) - To add GApps, go to Advanced -> Reboot to Recovery -> Apply Update -> Apply from ADB
- Run
adb sideload GAPPS_BUILD(Replace GAPPS_BUILD with your GApps ZIP file, repeat this step if you want Magisk) - Press Reboot System Now
Update Instructions:
- Download the latest ZIP
- Reboot to recovery
- Flash the latest ZIP
- Reboot to recovery
- If you previously installed it, flash GApps and Magisk
- 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.

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.bu.. bu. but the pixel firmware is already perfect
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.7Sorry 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.5ChangeLog:
2022/11/26:
- Updated build to 2022/11/27 (arrgh, UTC/PST differences)
2022/11/16:
- Initial build for cheetah/panther.
- Is stable (for me at least) on a Pixel 7, your experience may vary however
