Rom for Pixel XL - Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers

I am thinking about creating a rom for my Pixel XL. I have not created a rom in awhile since my last few phones have been locked down by at&t. So I have a few questions.
What features would you want in a rom?
What would you change in the stock rom?
Do you want built in overclocking?

Be able to scroll through quick toggles in the notification panel.
More quick toggles in panel if possible.
Battery percentage on the outside of the battery icon
Font pack
Option to have volume panel always expanded
That's all I can think off. Good luck and thanks! (Whenever twrp/FlashFire is out/updated lol)

Is there a flashable zip to add the power control bar to the notification bar?

Many roms come with a power control in the notification bar, some even offer the ability to edit it with an xml file. Is this a standalone app I can add to any rom? I am running the stock sprint with root but the one thing I miss i the quick controls in the notification area
Thanks
I know several people are working on it, including myself, but its no easy port from 3.70

Is there a ROM that'll let you have customizable toggles in the swipe down bar?

Like in CM7 for the EVO phones. I'd like to put in a toggle to change the display brightness and a flash light switch.

Mmuzzy Rom Extended Desktop Question

Hey,
I have a question about this feature in the Mmuzzy 4.2.1 French Vanilla Rom for the Galaxy Nexus. I know this in the wrong section, but I don't have permission to post since I'm new. But with the extended desktop enabled I am also running the LMT app for the pie menu. However I would like to know if there is any way to enable the notification bar while extended desktop is on? Even if I use gestures to bring up the notification bar it is still blocked from opening, that goes for the quick menu as well. It doesn't have to be visible on screen at all times, but it would be nice to at least open my notification bar by swiping.
Notification bar
Hello.
I use another ROM (cm10.1) with the extended desktop enabled an LMT too.
In order to make available the status/notification bar I use an app called Smart Statusbar that allows to you show/hide the statusbar swiping on the top of the screen.
Hello again
I just see that. On the last nightlie build of cm10, you can enable the extended desktop with/without statusbar.
hmm, maybe I'll switch to cyanogen mod, I just loaded the mmuzzy mod yesterday. I originally was on bugless beast, but since there hasnt been an update in a while I figured I would switch. I usually like to stick to stable vanilla roms, but I could give it a shot
This makes me happy

This rom is made by user http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=4552996. I guess ltelg has ported it for E975, if so thanks.
This rom is working very well. There are a lot of custom settings around'n'about in menu, very nice! Only problem I found was that *front* facing cam seems to be stuck in some sort of "wide" mode, so my face was really long when in portrait, and more correct in landscape. And why remove "hold back button to force close app" -Solution: Edit hardware keys to holding back button-kill app. As in some other roms, there seems to be an issue when using auto brightness that causes the screen to use anything from seconds to minutes on waking up.
There are some advanced settings that are locked, probably because of our kernel (like changing Gpu freq). 13mpx working, focus works fine. Comes with xposed framework installer (set custom dpi and other things per app). Definitely one of the most well made roms I've seen!
Tested on E975intl
Nicely done sir. Hope everyone enjoys the build!
FYI.... Please make sure you include the BeanStalk logo in the OP... You can copy over my format from the original Infuse4g thread by clicking on reply on the first post and then copy everything in there and then paste it into your thread. You just have to remove the [QOUTE] from the beginning and end
Any screenshots..?
Booting now!
Damn, a very smooth rom, thx man, gonna go with this now and se if i get any problems i probably keep it.
So far i love it.
Well this ROM was working okay for awhile and then everything went to **** about a month later. 90% of appa force close, NFC drains my battery for no reason, and I can't disable it because settings force closes. data reset doesn't reset, and clockwork mod won't start.
Thanks for breaking my phone asshole.

Man, the dev don't have the guilt for your case, if the ROM works a lot of time isn't because is a bad ROM, right?? That things happens, and the best thing that I recommend you, is flash a kdz ROM (Singapore is the best by the weight, less of 1gb) with kdz updater. Root, use freegee to install a recovery and done, you can flash any custom ROM again. In the forum there's a specific guide to do all the procedure.

Just a follow up: my phone is now bricked http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2434921.
Thanks guys. I recommend you boycott LG for the **** company they are.
Saw your post in at&t thread, so i asume your G is a at&t modell, so why you are flashing a rom which is meant for e975?
Does any kernel goes with this rom?

Status bar Padding

Happy New Year everyone.
I'm wondering if anyone has had any luck adjusting the padding between icons in the status bar on their Pixel XL? I've searched XDA and Google and mostly found information about making your older Android device's status bar transparent, a few outdated articles about the padding but it references editing the text of important system files. Back story is I haven't had to really worry about battery life throughout the day (thank goodness), but I'm still obsessive about keeping my phone topped off so I hid the battery icon from the status bar using System UI Tuner. Out of sight out of mind right? The downside is I now have a gap that seems to be the combination of the padding between cellular service, battery, and clock creating 2 "pads" as opposed to just one.
TLDR: Any way to edit the padding between particular icons in the status bar?
Device: Verizon Pixel XL (7.1.1 NMF2XO, unlocked/rooted running Elemental X 1.02)
Update: In order to solve my problem I installed the Pure Nexus ROM and utilized its capability of removing the battery along with the padding.
