just as a curious
is it possible or is there any , who port S8+ rom to pixel xl ?
It's possible to port some apps/features but it's complicated to port the whole rom. I don't even think there are a lot of people that would love to run a Samsung rom on a pixel tbh as the software is one of the main features of the pixel.
I think its easier and with more luck to get an s8 and hope for aosp (us model), exynos model is probably gonna get aosp anyway
Lol I got the pixel to not have a overly themed, slow UI like suckwiz
Hey guys Bought the pixel 2 xl was wondering will there be any roms for this phone. I used to have the nexus 6 and there were alot of roms. But this new phone haven't really seen any roms. for it. thanks in advance
Most ROMs for any phone are still working on Oreo. And the pixel is a little.more complicated. But they will come
Who is buying the "4a XL" because of the bigger display?
I am.
Will be upgrading from a OnePlus 6t, CPU performance is similar between the SD845 and SD765G.

Phone size comparison with the Pixel 4a: https://j.mp/2QFNDtU
The Pixel 4a looks really small compared to the OP 6T!

It does, but this is the forum for the 4a 5G which is similar in size to the OnePlus 5:

I'll be upgrading my PIxel 3a XL to this 4a 5G. I haven't had a daily driver phone for this long in forever so I'm ready for an upgrade.

Thanks for the link. I had to add the 4a, because the 4a 5G is not yet in their database.
I am returning the 4a and getting the 4a 5G
So, I've been holding off on getting a new phone for a long time. I said to myself that I wouldn't buy another phone until a decent sized 5G phone comes out that's not $1000 or more. I've been using the Nexus 6P since I bought it when it was released . The day It arrived in the mail I unlocked it, rooted it and started flashing all sorts of roms and mods until the last Resurrection Remix was released on Oreo and have hung with it since, going through 4 batteries, 3 displays, 2 charging ports and 1 fingerprint sensor. I picked up one inexpensive tablet in the meantime to entertain myself but have finally been able to order the new Google Pixel 4a 5G which should arrive around November 20th. It's going to be a huge difference in specs between the two devices and although from what I understand the software in the Pixel 4a 5G is really good, I'm definitely looking forward to getting the latest Resurrection Remix rom when it's available. I hear it's available for the Pixel 4a and it's excellent. Anyone else waiting to get their hands on this device to start running custom roms and modifying the crap out of it?

Hilarious that I read this, the 6P is still my all time favorite phone, hands down. The size, thin-ness (is that a word) and just overall loved the 6P more than anything. I just got my 4a 5G this week and need to activate it. I did find out today it won't fully work in the VZM 5G UWB band.... which is a bummer, but oh well.
I need to dust off my 6P and update it, just for the memories.

I really liked the 6P myself. Wish I didn't crack the digitizer on it or I'd still use it as a backup. I have my original galaxy nexus as well. That was a good phone back in the day but I didn't realize just how slow it is until I fired it up about 6 months ago. First phone I ever unlocked and rooted. What a great phone the 4a 5G has been so far, I don't have any complaints about it. As far as I know there's no custom recovery for it yet so I'm still holding off on rooting it. There's not a lot of mods and only one custom ROM but I'm sure there are people working on it. Get yours activated, you'll like it.

I would prefere the compacter size of the Pixel 5, but the 'under-display' speaker is a no-go for me. I will wait for the 5a! ;-) My 4a5G is still in it's unopened box, since my Pixel 2 is running official LineageOS with current security updates and does all I want.
Hello,
I have been using different pixel phones ( Pixel 2, 3, 4) before moving to hauwei phones and now i have sold my huawei and thinking to get back on Pixel but Pixel phone did not change much from last 3 genertaion. I did not like the screen on any Pixel to be honest i.e they all had low brightness and was not as good as samsung/Huawei .Camera, sound, software, battery of Pixel 2 XL is as good as pixel 4/4 XL so i dont see any reason why i should spend more on 3 and 4 when i am getting same experience on cheaper Pixel 2/3a/4a ? Would new pixel 5 or 5S would be any different ? Yes Google software processing is great but why they are not brining latest camera hardware ..apple was behind google in camera department but now they are going head to head if not better . I like onplus software and others specs but camera is not best which is important for me so whats ur opinions ?
Hello can someone share is it all working and good with Wireless Android auto and dual sim? Data connection taking phone calls etc?
Hi, I bought my pixel 6 pro last week and since now it is working very stable with my aawireless dongle (car is a polo 6 2020 modell).
The only problem I have is that I cant charge wireless with my 15watt charger while using aa wireless because pixel will reach 40degree very fast and stop charging. Didnt test with 5 or 10watt charger.
Edit: I am using esim for calling and a second "normal" sim for data

Thanks for reply, I have option tu use aawireless dongle and also car build in. Currently I also have 15w charger and lets see what it does when I get hands on pixel 6 pro.
Just one more question - what happens if someone calls you on not data sim? does it all crashes or works? I ask this because my now gone MI 11 ultra did that with aawireless dongle?

Didnt receive any call with pixel at present while driving but calling out is working for me. Will test incoming calls later this day but I think it will work normal.

I had specific issue on Mi 11 ultra when someone called on not data card or I made call from not data card - then Android auto just disconnected.
Again thanks for testing and reply

Tested incoming calls today and was working fine for me. MIUI devices have serveral problems with aa and aawireless (just have a look at aa wireless thread). If there are some custom roms for your xiaomi phone I would give it a try, had a mi 9 before with crdroid (also with dual sim usage) and aa wireless was working fine to.

All good I am with pixel 6 pro and as my car suports android auto wireless directly I have all things working - btw 15 w wireless charging doesn't make my pixel hot at least for 20 min drive with android auto on.
