Pixel C?

Hi,
do you know if the team actually works on a ROM for the Pixel C device?
Remix OS was announced for the Pixel C and both Nexus devices (which now received a ROM).
So I just would like to have a small status update aka cancelled/working on it
Thank you

Thanks for this question. I'm wondering the same thing.

No answer in 3 days.
Now does this point to a lack of communication between Jide and its customers, or do they simply not care about the users?
Because there are clearly some Jide employees who read this subforum.

Very interested by this question too
Thanks for this question !
Pixel C with its large screen could be great with Remix OS.

The Pixel C launched with 6.0.1. REMIX OS is on 5.1. How exactly were you guys expecting to have the rom out now? It will be out when remix OS is based on a version of android that the pixel C has source code for.

We don't expect a rom to be out but instead an official statement about general plans regarding compatibility to the Pixel C

it will have the ROM after the switch to marshmallow.

Maybe now that 3.0 is out for PC and we know Remix is making the Marshmallow jump there'll be some movement. I won't hold my breath though. C'mon Jide! Please give this to us!

Yeaii
I will try installing it on the weekend and will report back how it worked

So far it's pretty decent. I installed after figuring out how to unlock the bootloader first (something you should update in your instructions). First impressions: I'm not sure why I can't drag from the menu to the desktop and I can't remove icons from the desktop (only uninstall them) this is just weird. Furthermore, I can't ping icons to the taskbar at the bottom (this would be super useful even if limited to 1-2 apps.
Also, way too much wasted room on the desktop, huge padding on the left and right which should be accounted for.
Overall, very cool

A few issues.
When installing the Google keyboard it soft reboots the tablet first try, then installs properly.
It takes a little too long for the tablet to recognize that it's either charging or not charging. I unplugged my pixel c to write this and it still thinks it's charging.

Agreed. You can't drag from the menu to the desktop because the desktop is combined with the launcher. There is no app drawer, it's basically like the iOS desktop. It would be cool if they would let you pin icons on the taskbar instead of just showing what's open.

You actually can pin apps to the taskbar by long pressing an app from the menu/app drawer and dragging it to the taskbar.
I also think that having every app icon on the desktop is overkill. It would be better to keep the apps contained to the menu and let us choose which ones to place on the desktop (like with the Google Now Launcher).

I'm hoping someone can help me. I've followed both links in this thread for how to instructions. The first takes me to the help site where, no matter how I word my search, I get no useful links. The second link is to the 'how to install Remix on a PC'.
Could someone help me out with the link on how to install on an Android tablet, please.
I've tried google search with various versions of 'how to install on an Android tablet' with no luck either.
All the best Richard.

Hello folks.
I'd like to try the Remix OS on my Pixel C, but would like to be able to go back to Android if I don't like it. I have TWRP recovery installed. Can I just install all the image files but skip the recovery.img? Will this allow me to run TWRP and restore an Android backup? Or is there some dependency needed in the remix recovery?
Thanks for the help.

Have to admit, it does need better instructions, namely for setting up ADB Fastboot... something that was sorely missing. I had to install it, then open an command line prompt then change to that directory. Then run all the commands in the bat file that was included. After getting the ADB driver from Samsung working, it was a breeze but until then, it was a nightmare!
Right now I'm running Remix OS 3 for the Google Pixel C, it's android version 6.0.1 and it runs pretty good. I got tired of waiting for Nougat to roll out not to mention, Nougat doesn't support free form windows... something I love on my Samsung devices!!!! Oh one other thing, it does not have root support even though their videos claim that it does!

[ANNOUNCEMENT] Pixel C and Nexus 9 now supported by Remix OS 3 (Android Marshmallow)

Since Pixel C came on the market, many of you have asked for a version of Remix OS you could run on the big, productive tablet from Google.
At long last, it's here!
Remix OS, based on Android Marshmallow is now supported for Pixel C as well as Nexus 9.

How to update from remix os 2 to 3?
Sent from my SM-N920C using XDA-Developers mobile app

fleshed it last night on nexus 9 rooted with wugfresh working great so far thanks.
One thing can't use google now launcher or find home under settings?

Just flashed this to my N9. I was lazy and used the flash-all batch file, everything went fine. Also was lazy and used WugFresh Nexus Root Toolkit to root (without installing recovery, and when booted into temporary TWRP selected "keep system read-only"). Everything went fine. I'm rooted on RemixOS 3.0 and loving it!
I came from the Android N Dev Preview Build 4 with no issues. I'd read that in the past some users had to downgrade their firmware before they were able to install RemixOS, but this was not the case for me.
I'd like to extend a HUGE thank you to Jide and the RemixOS team! You guys are doing great things!

Is GPS and LTE working on you guys?

LTE not working in my Nexus 9. It says no SIM all the time. I tried to insert 2 different SIMs and no luck.

Me too

so far i like remixOS on N9 works well only thing I don't care for lancher3 wish i could use another.

I had retired my Nexus 9 from daily use but MM build of remixOS seems to have given it a new lease of life
Only drawback so far seems to be the lack of LTE support but it isn't a major issue for me at the moment as I'm using another tablet when on the move.

How do you do this?

Heya Guys,
I've realised a few people may want to know if this ROM works with the LTE model - well yes it does!
Install the ROM as given in the instructions, then you need to download the vendor.img file from the Google website -https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images - then extract the vendor.img and flash that to your Nexus 9 LTE.
Once you have done this and it is successful, ensure that you set the APN settings for your SIM card (you can find this info on the website of your provider) then you aer good to go.
I'm personally loving Remix OS 3.0 and really feel as though my Nexus 9 has true purpose and is beginning to fulfil its function for which I intended!

Best Nougat rom for Nexus 7?

I am looking for a ROM that runs android nougat. I have a rooted device but have never installed a custom rom on it. Right now, it is just running 6.0.1 MOB30X, the latest update on stock. I want to upgrade to Nougat, but I don't really know what options are available. I want to keep my device close to stock android, like it already is. So, if someone could tell me what ROMs are available and which ones are the most popular and best?

If you want to keep close to the stock android the closest is the official lineageos build. All others have added features which may or maynot affect batterylife and performance.

LineageOS or AOSP will get you what you want.

In my experience no version superior to "Android 6" works well "out of the box" with full working applications of estreaming like youtube, netflix, etc .. and sometimes problems with root, my recommendation if it will be "Android 6" is still better Stock rom. Neither lineage nor much less AOSP and any derivative.

Newbies to all these updates and ROMs releases. I spent a good amount of time dumping various ROM.
I tried Lineages, Droid, Resurrection Remix. I think ASOP is Lineage?
All the ROMs above works well but I could not get gapp to going. Keep saying wizard error when starting up. Gapp is basically play store.
I tried that mini gapp bean and the open gapp 7.1 pico. They both fail during start up. It was trying to run the google apps wizard and keeps failing.
I ended up with Nitrogen-OS-flo-20170316 ROM. Let this ROM flash first than, reboot, go back in recovery mode and flash the Gapp 7.1 pico. This was the only way I can avoid the wizard failing during startup. Everything works except Latest netflix app failing. Get the apk from mirror apk and make sure you get the older apk version 4.2. Don't get the newest 5.x netflix release.
Resurrection Remix ROM looks cool. It's suppose to be faster than Linage.
Since everything is work for me with Nitrogen. I'll stick with nexus 6 Nitrogen for now.
or until someone prove me wrong. Or know why I am having all sort of issue installing Gapp pico on Resurrection Remix, Linage, or that Droid version.

I am not sure if Android 6 or marsh mellow is the best. After I flash with Nougot. It's a lot faster. Loving it.

Hi guys, I just bought a Nexus 7 and i updated to latest official 6. Then i find out OTG Support doesnt have support for exFat, only FAT32. If i try to do Nougat, will it gain exFat support for OTG?
Also can anyone take my nexus 7 and do it for me for like $20-$30 as i am completely illiterate on all of this...

This depends on the rom or kernel as much as whether it is Nougat. LineageOS supports exfat and has clear instructions on how to install it.

[ROM] [Unofficial] [LOS15.1] Lilly's LineageOS CookieJar

Hi everyone!
This is just my corner where I drop the builds of Lineage-15.1 that I personally use. They do contain a few smaller customisations, like a custom kernel and other goodies that I personally need. I'm posting this here in case somebody finds them to be useful.
Nooby Disclaimer:
I'm not a developer and just because I've got a thread here, doesn't mean I fully know what I'm doing when modding or building ROMs. What I publish is used by myself personally and thereby tested as daily driver. If something still breaks and your phone doesn't survive the smoke test, that's your problem and not mine.
Builds will mostly cater towards my needs if I have any special wishes with the hopes that the changes are useful or interesting for someone else as well (won't be too deep changes I think).
Some info/bugs specific to this build:
SELinux defaults to permissive
Make sure you tell OpenGapps to keep LineageOS Snap installed, Google Camera crashes.
Fails SafetyNet Test, don't use if you need that to verify.
OTA Support (Can somebody confirm that it works?.). The Updater should notify you of a new version.
Other than that, there's not much to say about it. It's LineageOS 15.1, what more could you wish for?

I'm going to ignore the passive-aggressiveness and just go ahead and argue that with time that my builds will deviate a tiny bit from vanilla Lineage here and there, be it only tiny tweaks and goodies like Pixel Navbar, kernel with Kali Nethunter support and OTA support. Besides, I wouldn't expect a 14.1 thread to contain Lineage15.1, now would I? Fss.

No need to get snippy. Just commenting that I've been running builds for weeks now bringing up 15.1, and there's 40+ people in the hangouts group I made. I can't stop you from releasing builds or building from my sources (and nor do I care to), just letting you know that it's incorrect to say nobody's been building unofficials.

Sorry, I do apologise, but your comment did sound passive-aggressive even after reading over it multiple times. My point still stands though.

Not sure what you are asking, but I had to override the build type branding to NIGHTLY in order to have the OTA server working. Just flash it over the old version. If you're using twrp and it doesn't want to flash, I'll have a Lineage recovery here, flashing that and then flashing the update using the lineage recovery always worked for me. http://tf2glados.dynv6net:8080/LineageRecovery/
Otherwise, just update TWRP. I tried it with the latest TWRP version just now and it works.

Hello, thank you for working on this.
I flashed it yesterday and had an issue with mounting USB to my windows computer.
It worked on the first boot, and I was able to pull down the notification bar and tell it to transfer files. However on subsequent boots it did not give me such an option, although rebooting to recovery with the cable plugged in the same way mounted the device in my computer.

I haven't had any issues with that and I wouldn't consider it a build-specific bug, but I might be able to help you anyway. Plug in the phone, go to developer options and tap on "Select USB Configuration" and set it to MTP. That mostly fixes hiccups with USB modes for me. Otherwise, try replacing the cable if you're using the original Nextbit one that came with it. Mine became really unreliable soon after buying the phone, so I replaced it with a better (USB 3.1, even) cable and now it just works.

Short note here, my Raspi server died on me again, so sorry for the dead links again. Buuut I'll be home soon, so I can get around fixing the Pi and the downloads will be up again just in time for a new build.

Whats up Everyone what is the best fastest Custom Rom with 8.1 Oreo for Nexus 7

Whats up Guys its been while since I last posted and used my Nexus.
I Iam now using it for Uber eats all day.
I have seen there is several roms running 8.1 Oreo. I wanted to know what would everyone say is the best one that would feel and perform as fast as my Galaxy 8 running 8.0 Oreo.
I am Currently not rooted yet on the Nexus 7 so I know you will tell me to get Team win recovery and root first.
Also its been years since I have rooted lol with team win.
I just want the Tablet to feel extremely fast and be able to customize it as much as the rom lets me. I wanted your opinon on how much faster and snapier it will be after 8.1 Oreo. I really could not tell how fast my S8 was running until I started using the Nexus 7 again for comparison lol.
One thing I want to add as well is there way to make a complete backup of my entire device before unlocking the bootloader as in this video I found he says you have copy all filed on your computer.
Is there not a way to backup or complete a Mirror back up before unlocking and installing the boot loader again sorry guys I have not done a root in years so forgot the entire process from what I remember there was always a way to create a entire mirror backup before rooting or installing the boot loader.
Is there any other way to do this is faster way or more efficient proof since this video was filmed in 2013. So any way to root without factory resetting?
Here is the video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6k4rCaMPSQ8
I did find this as well from wug fresh one click rooot with twrp but still how would I make mirror save of my entire device before I root and install the recovery?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J9CPMG6yIA4
Thanks guys

Hello guys not one answer yet? Please anyone that help me with tjhis it would be apreciated.

https://lineageos.wickenberg.nu/builds/full/flo/
Can't guarantee best/fastest but I have been having good luck with the UNOFFICIAL lineage builds at that link. They aren't necessarily 100% bug free but work very well for my usage (mostly browser, a few apps).
I used wugs unlock way back when and assume it would still work. I don't believe he still keeps it up so you may want to verify or check with other options.
This thread has way more than you will want about the rom and related issues;
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ne...ment/rom-lineageos-15-0-nexus-7-2013-t3673103
A few key things to pay attention to:
- Find the updated twrp(s)
- Read about repartitioning so that system is large enough for the ever-expanding gapps
- most use magisk for root now rather than su
All I can think of right now. I'm far from expert. Hopefully someone with more knowledge will chime in

Thanks man I just read your message now. I do have a question what about the oreo version?
I also have my asus prime running kitkat and it is just slow laggy and buggy as hell it not running like a smooth tablet at all. On the prime I have it rooted with team win 3.0.0
I just want both to be running as fast as my galaxy S8 or as close to it as possible. It seems crazy that Prime feels so slow in comparison when it has quad core processor.

Link and thread I linked are both Oreo
This is an unofficial oreo rom
