• If you are experiencing issues logging in, we moved to a new and more secure software and older account passwords were not able to be migrated. We recommend trying to reset your password, then contacting us if there are issues.
  • 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. We still would love to hear feedback over at this thread and also check out the new XDA app! Thanks and we hope you enjoy the new forums, and thanks for your support of XDA <3

IMPORTANT: Read this before installing
  • A bug in the installer causes installation to fail. Please create the folder /tmp/install/bin in TWRP before flashing!
  • GApps is NOT included in this build, and installing OpenGApps causes Google apps to crash. Try mindthegapps or another package, and let me know what works.
  • The device tree and kernel are from LineageOS sources. The device tree for @clamor's repartition can be found here. (If you're interested, I just modified BoardConfig.mk for the patch.)

Features (note, this is a WIP, so most of the Pixel stuff doesn't work:p):
  • Google Sans on the launcher
  • Version compatible with @Clamor's repartition
That's about it.
Downloads:
Downloads will be in my Android File Host folder, under PixelExperience and PixelExperience-clamor (for @Clamor's repartition), and maybe DevDB, if it actually works.
Please leave a review!

Installed on my Nexus 5 -

* As already stated, we have to create a folder \tmp\install\bin (every time) before installing.
* installation and booting went smooth without boot loop. (I kinda like the boot animation)
* I found it strange that there is no keyboard come along with this rom, I had to get .apk file and install it manually.
* Through mobile data is turned on, I'm not getting data (for this reason I have to switch back to my old rom)
* Apps started crashing unless permitted manually from settings.
* The below given Gaps worked find for me
