Development [ROM][UNOFFICIAL][cheetah/panther] LineageOS 20.0 for the Pixel 7 Pro/7

[Pixel86]

So you flashed all attached img files?

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

 

[fischli]

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 cleared the cache of the google app and the assistance apps. It does not work. But I have deactivated the google app now. I do not need it. So it's not problem for me.
But why can I only add 4 fingers?

 

[UltimateGamer83]

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.

 

[fischli]

Maybe because of the Tensor-CPU.

 

[UltimateGamer83]

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.

 

[UltimateGamer83]

Can you d

Can you do a micro g one with signature spoofing

 

[UltimateGamer83]

Bump

Can you d

Can you do a micro g one with signature spoofing

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.

 

[UltimateGamer83]

Does this mean we will see official builds soon? I love lineage over the stock any day. I find the scrolling on my phone a lot faster too.

 

[fischli]

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

 

[UltimateGamer83]

with experimental build is the official build coming in?

 

[cybersack]

When will the official version come out?

When will the official version come out?

Next year

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
