I just recently know about GSI (Generic System Name). So, I'm wandering if Google drop support for Pixel device, we still can have stock android via GSI right? And why didn't ROM developer just resolve to use this method? I am a dumbass, please educate me!

because gsis are ****, use roms that are actually tailored for your device, not hard to flash
@aL_09
Start going in these telegram groups that are linked in some of the ops where our roms are. Google search "Marlin afh" and check out what's out there. There are still a few people building for Marlin. And we have LOS17 and Pixel Dust 10 that are active and some bad ass pie roms that aren't that old... You can use GSIs. I've flashed a few but all the ones I've tried seem to have issues with ril and have SIM card unavailable and no data and I haven't found a work around yet. But I just started crackflashing GSI's on this device.. If and when I find some solid ones I'll shoot you a message. But download telegram app and subscribe to the devs on our rom sections groups and look around from time to time. You'll find some good stuff!

Hey there!
Because Android 11 Beta 1 was released yesterday there are new GSI builds available. The OG Pixel XL is supposed to support GSIs. Can you explain me how I flash that onto my old Marlin (Pixel XL) device?

You should be able to find the information that you're looking for here https://developer.android.com/topic/generic-system-image/releases#android-gsi-11
If I were you I'd wait. While there's no guarantee I'm pretty sure android 11 roms will be available at some point made for the XL. The Pixel XL is an A/B partition device. Just always make a backup and transfer it on to a thumb drive or your computer before you start installing anything and always have your factory image handy and know how to use fastboot and adb so you can recover if something goes wrong. This whole Android thing is all about reading and searching. Just installing things without knowing what's really going on and how to recover is risky and I would not suggest it.

I actually checked out that thread already. I followed the link what to do when the partition size isn't big enough initially. But it didn't work for me. So I guess you're right. I shouldn't flash the GSI and instead wait for Android 11 builds for Marlin. <3
Gsi don't boot on marlin
Also marlin not caf devices either

Edge Sense Plus has been hidden from the Play Store by the original dev, and I believe it won't show up unless you've previously added it to your account before it was officially discontinued. As far as most of us can tell, everything seems to still work fine (for now), but I've also seen a few people ask about the app scattered across these threads across the different Pixel devices. So here is a download link to the latest version of the APK.
Edge Sense Plus v1.32.0 APK: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=7161016148664805712
Again, please don't expect any support from the dev since the mod has been discontinued by the original dev. Also, I'm not sure if you'll be able to unlock the pro features, nor what will happen if you attempt to pay for the pro license. Basic functionality, however, should work fine, at least for now. Also, it seems the app no longer properly recognizes whether the Magisk / Xposed mod is correctly installed, so it will likely always give you an error when you open it. Just hit ignore.
EDIT MARCH 2, 2021: THE ACTIVE EDGE MOD / EDGE SENSE PLUS PROJECT HAS OFFICIALLY BEEN RE-CONTINUED BY JAN'S DUDE, THE LEGENDARY TEAM VIPER MEMBER, MIKHAIL (@mikalovtch)!! NO NEED FOR ME TO CONTINUE MAKING THESE - PLEASE REFER TO THE MAGISK MANAGER REPO FOR FUTURE UPDATES. IT WAS FUN WHILE IT LASTED!!
SINCE IT HASN'T YET BEEN UPDATED AS OF TODAY THOUGH, I RAN MY SCRIPT AND BUILT FOR ALL PIXEL 3 / 3A / 4 VARIANTS AND UPDATED MY MODULE. PLEASE REFER TO DOWNLOAD LINK BELOW.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
(now updated to also install for 3 / 3 XL / 3a / 3a XL as well)
ONLY WORKS FOR PIXEL 4 XL "CORAL" AND PIXEL 4 "FLAME"!!!!
(WON'T EVEN INSTALL ON OTHER DEVICES, SO DON'T BOTHER)
tl;DR - A continuation of the "[Discontinued]Active Edge Mod for Pixel devices" Magisk module on the Magisk Module Repository, discontinued and last released for 2020-12-05 patch level. This is simply the same exact mod applied to the 2021-01-05 patch level. PLEASE DO NOT BOTHER THE ORIGINAL DEV FOR ANY SUPPORT - THIS IS AN UNOFFICIAL MOD.
As my wife and I love and can't live without, and basically purchased Pixel 4's, for the ability to retain the (advanced, custom) squeeze function that we've become so accustomed to over our years with the HTC U11 and U12+, I've modded the current month's SystemUIGoogle.apk file with the Active Edge Mod with the developer's permission. Please DO NOT bother him with any support requests and/or questions. Edge Sense Plus (the app itself) continues to work perfectly fine as far as I'm aware, and I only aim to continue keeping the Active Edge Magisk mod up to date for as long as I have the ability to do so. Also note that the Xposed Active Edge mod will continue to work in its capacity to remap short squeeze functions, though unfortunately since 01-2021 update we lose the long squeeze functionality without an updated Magisk module.
Since I've already done the work for our phone models, I decided to share it with you all. We really love this mod, and it brings back those sweet memories of the good ol' HTC days.
Again, PLEASE DO NOT ask the official developer for any support for this mod - this is an UNOFFICIAL continuation of his work!
Cheers, and long live Edge Sense Plus!
----------------------------------------------------
* Like I said, the original Edge Sense Plus dev gave me permission to modify and share this with you guys. This is just the base Active Edge / Edge Sense Plus magisk mod with no extras. This targets SystemUIGoogle.apk, and so will not play nicely with many of Tulsadiver's mods. Though if you're a regular user of his mods, you'll probably notice he often slipstreams the Active Edge mod option into his mods and offers separate packages - you'll need to refer to them if you use his mods.
All I wanted to do was bring Edge Sense Plus's advanced functionality back to our devices, updated to play nicely with the newest security patch levels. This is literally just an unofficial continuation of the Active Edge Mod that used to be offered on the Magisk Download Repository (now marked as [Discontinued]). AGAIN, PLEASE DON'T BOTHER J TO THE 4N (OR TULSADIVER FOR THAT MATTER) FOR ANY SUPPORT - THIS IS AN UNOFFICIAL MOD!
NOTE: Download link in the OP will install mod for the current patch level down to January 2021. It will detect your current patch level and install the correct file. For earlier system builds from 2020 and prior, please use the official discontinued module on the Magisk Manager repo. I did not clone the entire Active Edge Mod repository; my unofficial repository only hosts January 2021 and later builds.
Changes:
I know, I know... I said I was done with releasing my Unofficial Active Edge Mod installer, yet here's another month's update. I might keep doing it for those that update immediately and want it a bit sooner, so long as it's fortunate enough to happen on a day when I'm able to do it relatively quickly. Since I'm building these anyway and sending them over to the dev, for now, to upload to the official Magisk repo, for now I don't mind also updating it here a bit sooner. Anyway, more on this below and some of the headache involved moving forward...
04-05-2021: Soooo... the script I wrote to churn these out as quickly as possible as Google releases the updates, relied on system image dumps on GitRip... unfortunately the domain was seized by the FBI (lol) and so it looks like the old dumper is no longer updating his Android dumps repo on GitRip. Fortunately, mikalovtch pointed me over to a new source that hosts such system dumps, and I was able to get these done relatively quickly afterwards. OP is updated with the 04-05-2021 installer now!
03-02-2021: Meant to post an update a week or two ago. Noticed the magisk module on the official Magisk repo now says [RE-CONTINUED], so there really isn't much need for me to continue updating this anymore! As a final gift, I ran my batch builder script and built the modded apk's for all variants for the 2021-03-05 patch level, and download link for the module installer is in the OP.
02-02-2021: February 2021 mod is now uploaded. Updated installer is in the link in the OP.
02-01-2021: Modified and uploaded modded SystemUIGoogle.apk files for 3 / 3 XL / 3a / 3a XL to GitHub repository. Updated Magisk installer slightly to accommodate this, and removed a few unnecessary lines. Won't make any difference if you already installed the first release.

Sorry, but I can't help you with that. Like I mentioned, I'm not at all affiliated with the original developers. However, I would encourage you to check out the dev's telegram - maybe they can help you there.

Can you make sure the module is activated in Magisk Manager? If you updated to February patch level, depending on the order you did everything, the module might be disabled and greyed out. Also, you're using a Pixel 4 XL (or 3 or 3a) right? Also did you reboot after flashing?

I ended up releasing for April 2021 firmware as well... I was going to stop, but this month was a bit complicated due to the closure of GitRip, requiring some tweaks to my build script. More details in 2nd post. Anyway, I figured I'll keep releasing my unofficial version anyway, at least for the time being. I'm basically using my script to build these really quickly in an automated fashion and sending them to the dev, who then updates the Magisk repo. So the official version on the Magisk repo won't take very long to get updated anyway, but maybe for those that like to update as soon as it drops may find this thread useful.
Gah! Everything was working fine on my Pixel 3, but I just installed the updated official Active Edge module that was released today, and I'm borked. Phone either bootloops or goes to the "corrupted" screen. Am I really going to have to factory reset and start over?
Edit...Whew! What a pain. It wouldn't even get through the stock firmware flashing process successfully until I manually flashed the stock boot image to both slots first. After that I was able to boot to stock, then reboot to safe mode, re-flashing the Magisk patched image along the way, then reboot with modules disabled and get everything working again.
Has anybody successfully flashed the new Active Edge module? I'm afraid to try again, but I do miss my squeeze for flashlight.
Hey guys, sorry about this month. I'm actually not sure because I didn't generate the files this month. Been so busy with fixing up the new house I haven't communicated with the dev yet this month; heck I haven't even updated my wife's Pixel either. Anyway, I'll take a look as soon as I can (probably won't be til at earliest tomorrow) and compare the hash checksums to see if maybe there was a silly mistake somewhere. Sorry for those that ran into problems, but I'm glad you got it all sorted out! Stay tuned for hopefully some good news and an update....

I had the same issue after @mikalovtch updated the repo module.
I was able to adb shell in while at the white spinning G screen before the phone rebooted to corrupted message. Once in went into /data/adb/modules and rm -rf the ESP mod.
Went through this twice then notified him in the Telegram channel.
I've mostly reverted to just using ESP in non root mode (hide it from Magisk) since usually by the time we get a working mod it is time for monthly update again. It sucks to not have long squeeze, but double works (kind of a pain to pull off reliably though).
I appreciate the time that the devs put in to keeping this going, and sometimes when I'm too busy to update monthly I can still get a month or two of use from it.
Anybody try V.82 module yet?
OP updated... though Pixel 3 XL is missing. All others should work fine. If I noticed sooner that mikalovtch had already updated the official repo, I probably would have skipped, but whatever... Feel free to use the unofficial one or the official one.

Apologies again to everyone. I literally didn't get a chance to start building the files until tonight... only to realize it looks like Mikhail already updated the official repo with fixed files. Have you (or has anybody) tried the updated module yet? The comment on GitHub says that blueline and crosshatch were fixed.
Btw, unfortunately the dumps I usually source the SystemUIGoogle.apk files from didn't dump crosshatch (3 XL), or blueline (3) this month, so I manually pulled the file from the Pixel 3. But I still don't have the Pixel 3 XL file. Again, this was all before I noticed he had updated the official repo again and luckily it looks like he already took care of them. I know we're heading towards the end of the month already, but late is better than never I suppose... Can't wait til these bigger, more urgent new house projects are over with! This last week was basically dealing with 3 brand new toilets, but poorly placed water supply lines... and not realizing the new ones wouldn't fit til after one of the old ones was already taken out and thrown in the garbage. Among a million other projects... FUN!! I can't wait til I can get more than 3-4 hours of sleep in a row again, D:

Yes, the official v82 works on blueline. I appreciate the work you and Mikhail put into this!
I can relate on your house renovation work. I just went through one on our master bedroom and bath last year. It wasn't planned, but made necessary after the bath flooded when the tub drain seal failed. :-/ Since so much work had to be done anyway, we did some more things, including replacing faucets and the toilet.

Believe me, you won't want to. The update has been pulled. It still has so many bugs. Biggest problem for me, I was curious that it, and updated, A12 currently has no local update option. Means roll back is not possible, only with the MSM tool. Then it starts all over with rooting again.

you can download and install this system update apk from oneplus and it gives you the options to rollback. But be aware rolling back will wipe your device.

Which bugs are you facing?
Yup, and i've been using it for a month now.
I updated to A12 in Dec when the first OTA was pushed. I had too many issues even after the first 2 patches, downgraded back to OOS11 and never been happier.
I'm waiting for 10pro to launch so I can update to OOS12 then

I played around so much, that I don´t remember everything now. Some apps didn´t work. I think, but I´m not sure, I had problems with Viper4Android. Or it was Youtube vanced. Sorry, I really forgot.
Certain setting options had been missing for me or were no longer where you would have expected them to be. I also missed the local upgrade, but that problem has been solved in the meantime (I was not well informed). I was also not happy with the UI, but that is not a bug but a matter of taste.
In sum, not so dramatic, but my evaluation has coincided with those of other forum members. Does not mean that I am right. I'm happy to be corrected.
How is the general satisfaction with A12 here?
A few months back when they started pushing Android 12 I was eager to try it and so I used "Oxygen Updater" from the play store to download a full stable version of android 12 but i accidentally downloaded the Indian version. I had so many bugs on it, but then I used the same app (oxygen updater) to switch to the EU version and my phone worked perfectly with no bugs or anything. I have now switched to Pixel Experience rom and wifi is not working so I may go back to Oxygen 12. But yeah if you have bugs on Oxygen 12 then use Oxygen Updater and download a new version to flash and your bugs may vanish.
Enjoy
I was curious about A12 and gave it a second try after cleaning up everything.
Does Viper4Android work? Just trying with a fix but not sure if it will work.
The next thing is that file manger doesn´t appear in Magisk, when u want to install a module from internal storage.
At least Youtube Vanced is working now.
BTW, post above is ColorOS 12

Another question: how to us the "OnePlus 9/9Pro Rollback APK". It´s a zip file. Unpacking shows now apk file. Flashing through kernel manager of course not possible. Sorry, don´t find a way to install.
Second try of A12 was not satisfying. When I use the MSM Tool I´ve to re-root again....
Edit: renamed the file to apk at the end. Did it once without success, don´t know why. Now it works
Hope you figured it out. If you haven't.
- download appropriate downgrade package and move it to the root folder of your phone.
- download and install https://oxygenos.oneplus.net/OPLocalUpdate_For_Android12.apk
on your devices... this allows you to access local upgrade... if your phone doesn't install a shortcut you can keep reinstalling it every time you need it
- open OPLocalUpdate_For_Android_12.apk click gear in top left corner and install the downgrade package you put in the root directory
You can also use the local update to install other OxygenOS12/ColorOS12 packages. I just went from C.36(Global) -> C.38(EU) -> C.46(ColorOS12) then rolled back because MMS is broken at C.44 all variants of both OSs and above... at least for me.

Thanks, my problem was that I didn´t know that I have to rename the files. Many thanks!
Personally, I'm pretty satisfied with the C44 update for OxygenOS 12, stable and smooth, as intended. But yes, the first updates were messy.
For having given a try to ColorOS 12 too, OxygenOS 12 gave me a better experience on the OnePlus 9 Pro: less throttling in games and less bloated.
If we get a ColorsOS C44 EU (which should be far more debloated than its Chinese counterpart) that isn't making games throttle, then I'll surely jump into the wagon, but for now, OxygenOS 12 remains the better option if you want an Android 12 official experience for your phone.
How is it possible pixel 6 pro to be faster and smoother on a beta version than stable android 12???
Fingerprint sensor is very good, brightness is higher than android 12 specially under sun and camera is far way more derailed than android 12 stable... Why is this happening? Are they trolling us?
Presumably because this is a beta build release that is much further ahead in the current development schedule. Keep in mind that stable Android 13 releases in about two months and a week or so (August is currently the scheduled release).
It wouldn't really be a great idea in development to only start optimizing your product for stability and performance after it releases. So, that is what they are working on now; optimizing the stability, speed and performance so that they can spend the last few months of development ensuring that the new system functionality works well and is a pleasant update for us Pixel 6 users.
Also, it's important to make sure that you are releasing a great OS build - especially when that OS version's effectiveness will aid in the sales of your upcoming smartphone product that is going to launch with it (the Pixel 7 series)!
So overall, there are *Noexcusses* for being crummy with your software development and management =). Google had suffered enough with their Pixel 6 series release as they were still lacking funds in their phone development department due to a crummy lawsuit. But as a result of that issue, I'm assuming that they are shaping themselves up for that upcoming Pixel series.

And it will be. Beta 2.1 (on a newly wiped 6 pro) is excellent. Battery life has settled and is more consistent, image processing is getting better and so is the overall experience.
I also have the 3 XL and I remember that it took 6 months for the device to improve. When it was upgraded to A10, it was a different phone. This happens on all Pixels/Nexus devices. Software optimization takes time and is probably more visible on Google devices just due to the way they develop and improve their software over time (just different than apple or other oems, not necessarily better or worse)

Hope so... Im on beta 2.1 also and i have realised brightness improvements and charging improvements too... Battery duration on 2.1 isn't so good as Android 12 but is fine as soon as is so early Beta.
Beware if you're on Android 13 Beta 2.1. There is a Magisk update that released today, however, it prevents the phone from booting if installed. Requires a device wipe and reinstallation if you install that update =(.
(or maybe I'm just an unlucky duck lol)

Patching the boot image works for me on A13B2.1. Direct install may cause bootloops though. If you encounter a bootloop using direct install you can just boot into the bootloader and flash your patched Canary 24313 (or whatever you were on) and it will boot and then patch the boot image rather than using direct install with 24314. No need to wipe the device, in my experience.
I also have verity and verification disabled.

You're correct here. I forgot a few words in my original comment there, haha. It should have said "if the patched boot image was installed via Magisk". Sometimes I make comments too soon after rolling out of bed LOL.
Regardless, I did a full wipe and reinstall as I hadn't done my typical device setup when I had first upgraded to 13B2.1. I usually install all updates onto both slots (a and b), however, I hadn't done that initially. So a full wipe and installation onto both slots was required by my standard practices - as I wasn't even sure which one I was currently using, haha. Anyway, I've been trying to resolve some problem with Google Phone as the Visual Voicemail hasn't been working for me. So, I had figured a full wipe and reinstallation across both slots would have definitely resolved the boot loop as well as that visual voicemail problem....but it hasn't fixed the latter... =(

Here's Google's workaround for visual voicemail bug on Android 13 betas
Rolling back to a v81 release of the Phone by Google app can fix the issue

Thank you for this! Unfortunately, downgrading the phone app to V81 didn't resolve the issue. I have also tried some of the other methods that were being discussed in that Reddit post but haven't had any luck with those tricks either.
I'm going to try removing myself from the Google Phone Beta next though. Worst comes to worst (if removing myself from the phone beta list doesn't work), I'll have to wait a few weeks for the next Android 13 beta update.
Woah! This is offtopic but the pictures are so good! You're lucky that you have a pixel 6 pro

I updated to A13 beta 2.1 without a full wipe, using canary 24314 just fine. I did of course disable all modules before installing the A13 update.I also removed the -w command in the flash all bat file.

It seems to be a known error after clean wipe updates to the latest A13 beta build based on @uicnren 's post. According to users on the Reddit thread, the issue has to do with the beta and a current OS build miscommunication with the phone carriers in the United States. So, if this is truly the case, users experiencing this issue won't have it resolved until the next beta build release (or later). Time will tell =)
I'm abut ready to jump in and load the 13 beta on my P6 and wanted to know it there are any hotspot issues since that would be the one deal breaker for me.
Does anyone know When would be next Beta update?
Thanks...
Hi, so I recently got a pre-owned OnePlus 7T (Android version 12) and looking to root it. Not looking to do anythig mega fancy with it, basically spoof pokemon go.
I have never had a samsung before so I know none of the lingo (roms, roots, apks, flash etc). I've tried watching videos but a lot of people specifically mention 7T Pro or don't specifically mention Android version 12, which I'm guessing if it's like iOS then the version is important.
I was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction on how to root the phone to do what I want to do with it. I've got as far as developer mode with it. I have a windows PC handy if that helps too?
Thanks
Is it so hard to search?
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/guide-android-11-how-to-root-oneplus-7t.4253183/
Extract boot from here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/oneplus-7t-rom-ota-oxygen-os-repo-of-oxygen-os-builds.3997037/
This is XDA.
So members are expected to be proactive.
Hi, thanks for the response!
The first link says android 11, not 12, so like I had mentioned, I have no idea how it works with androids and whether the two are interchangeable.
The second link doesn't mention any android version and I can't see a mention of android 12 in the comments, thus I wouldn't have followed through with the guide as I can't clearly see it will work for OnePlus 7T Android 12.
So, having searched the site which I'm not used to, and having asked in discords and only being told to go ask here, I did what I was told and went and asked here. I apologise for how repetitive the question may be, but I'm just hoping some kind soul will have a little pitty and put me on the right path.
1.Guide is the same for Android 12
2.
E.g.
HD1903_11_F.17 (delivered to OOS 11 users): HD1903_11.F.17_3170_202210120443
MD5: c0efb9eacc32eac171fccd6cd306ecaa
is Android 12 for Europe
So all the last entries are A12.
Or download with Oxygen Updater App
Use this for extraction of the boot.img

Hi again,
I've taken what you said and reflashed the phone and upgraded to OOS 11.0.9.1 (latest available).
The links you sent are super useful now I know they work for any version, though following it broke my phone last night (my fault), likely during the patched_boot.img stage as the lingo started confusing me.
Does the below youtube offer an alternative method to root the phone? I've found the software build for 11.0.9.1 and hoping if that guide works then I'll follow that and ideally not need to bother you more
It's not an alternative, it's the same only as a video
However, better use the payload-gui.exe for extracting the payload bin.
Much easier.
Good luck
