problems since going back to OOS

I used sultan's version of CM13 for 2 month and last week end i flashed OOS beta 7 and now i have several problems :
- My booting animation is neither the oneplus animation nor the one i flashed (the marvel/dc one, yes i reflashed it after flashing OOS), it is the word android. how can i change that?
- I can't flash Xposed : he tells me there is no space on the system partition and then the phone bootloop : i have a runing superSU 3.0.2-22 (the phone is rooted, ever app that uses root works)
- I have a zooper widget who doesn't load at startup (i have to opent the zooper app) and i checked, i allowe it to start at the start of the phone
Any idea on what i can do? i thought that maybe the kernel of sultan didn't get witched back to the original kernel when i flashed OOS and that causes problems

Friend, I will advice you tu flash Freedom OS 1.11 which is build on top of beta 7. Why I am saying this.
1. It allows to change the boot animation at the time of installation.
2. It will allow you to de boat the Google/oneplus pre-installed apps at the time of installation. That you can even do on stock beta 7 using titanium Backup app. That will resolve the problem you got while flashing xposed.
3. On beta 7 xposed wont work it will stuck on boot logo. So go to official xposed link and download the latest build, that will work.
4. Before installing freedom os I will highly recommend your too go through few last pages on its thread.

1. Camera is the same that you have on beta 7. Actually Freedom os is deboated stock oxygen with some extra tweaks like custom kernel, audio mods etc. Every thing is customizable there.
2. And yes they provide update as soon as newer build comes from oneplus.
3. This can solve all the issues you mentioned with the same taste of beta 7.

Will Pixel XL get a Magisk rom ?

Does anyone know if pixel xl will get a custom rom with Magisk built right in, like the Htc 10 has with Viper10 ?
I was checking out the Htc 10 forum and now Viper10 has Magisk built right in. Its really beneficial because you can disable the root with Magisk and take ota updates then turn the Magisk back on. This would make things so much easier for everyone.
I would love to see roms like Pure Nexus come with Magisk as that would be awesome.
I know its offensive to ask rom devs on roms they are building and or when they will be out and such, but maybe someone has heard through the grape vine and may be able to give a heads up on if Magisk could possibly be added to the coming customs roms for the pixel xl.

I think you misunderstood what that Magisk ROM is. It's not a ROM with Magisk built in. Magisk ROMs work like MultiROM on the Nexus 7 or 5 did and allow you to dual boot multiple ROMs. (In this case, HTC Stock and Viper)
Also even if somebody did make one, Magisk doesn't work on the Pixel devices due to the weird partition layout so you wouldn't even be able to use it.

We can already dual boot different Roms and kernels

I meant a rom with Magisk built right in. The Magisk is systemless root which you can turn it off and be able to take over the air updates because your system is 100% stock with the Magisk turned off.
I was talking about such as the new Htc 10 Viper10 4.4 rom with Magisk built right in to the rom. I would imagine it could still work with the dual partition Pixel XL and I was curious if any rom devs might be working on just such a feature.

That's what I'm saying though, a ROM with Magisk built in is completely different from that Viper thing from today.
The Viper ROM is a Magisk module for the devices existing stock ROM that replaces some files to turn it into a custom ROM (like the framework-res.apk)
You are asking for a ROM with Magisk preinstalled so you don't have to flash extra zip files.
Also, it wouldn't because Magisk itself doesn't work with the Pixel (the first known issue on the official Magisk thread and a post reply under that OP says until the creator of Magisk get's a Pixel, Magisk is incompatible with both Pixels so it wouldn't matter if it's preinstalled or you flash it, it wouldn't work. And not working means you can't even install a Magisk ROM like Viper.

I disagree. Magisk worked on the Pixel's earlier firmware. I used it to decrypt my Pixels. The O update killed it.

Okay one, that website has hundreds of fake how-to guides that are the same one and all they do is change the device/OS name so I wouldn't trust that at all.
Second, maybe it worked but my point is the official Magisk thread says it doesn't work on Pixels because the layout. Since you said it "decrypted" your Pixels, I'm pretty sure Magisk does do that before installing but Magisk itself didn't actually install.
Lastly, there's no such thing yet as Android O so I know you are either trolling or don't know what you are talking about. Not only is 7.1 still Nougat/N but the Pixel launched with 7.1 so it hasn't had a major update that could have killed it if it worked before.

[ROM][UNOFFICIAL][Flounder][8.1.0_r22] NitrogenOS[04/30/18]

Nitrogen OS is a custom ROM based on AOSP and I made it for our Nexus 9 (WIFI) today .
Thanks to the NitrogenOS project for the source
First boot takes time, just wait patiently
Features:
0. Stock kernel works and force encrypt disabled
1. Non-rooted, use magisk 16.4 for root.
P.S. Flash magisk after first boot and install magisk manager manually.
2.HW still broken
Here's a thread describe Nitrogen OS in details,I'll save the time
https://forum.xda-developers.com/go...-nitrogen-os-n-substratum-04-09-2016-t3454762
Download link : https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=234787
Device tree:https://github.com/LineageOS/android_device_htc_flounder modified for Nitrogen.

Awesome job

Down loading now.

Another N9 ROM. This is great. Poor Flounder has been the red headed step child for so long now. Thanks for another quality choice for our device.

Thanks very much. I love Nitrogen rom on my Shamu. I'll DL as soon as get home.

Woohoo!! I am glad, I just bought a Nexus 9 a couple of days ago and was severely disapointed with the lack of ROMs and the fact that the one that I got was a refurbished but still having the sensor issue. Happy with my Nexus 7 2013 and how fast it is with the Nitrogen OS.

The latest build is pre-rooted and SuperSU is unnecessary

Does this ROM have force encrypt disabled like other Nitrogen OS builds?

Is it possible that it is missing some codec libs ?

It is AOSP based compared to LOS (CM) which the majority of the ROMs posted are.
DU is a great ROM. I found that it lacked some important features that I like, but a very solid ROM.

Yes i tried on Sprint but there was no data...even after entering the apn in

Encryption was not working, even with a full data format prior to flashing.
Any other opinions?

I have been running the weekly and official builds with nebula eas kernel for about 5 weeks or so. I personally feel its the best non-sense based ROM for my usage. It does lack some customisations most others have but makes up for it by being super stable, fast, battery friendly and just works as its supposed to with bull. I use superSU, substratum and A.R.I.S.E audio mod with selinux permissive without dramas.

It comes WITHOUT root. So you can choose your preffered method or no root at all.
I don't know about safetynet as I am not using android pay or anything that relies on it to pass.
Also I have not had any encryption issues as someone earlier replied

I've tried several combinations, with older/latest firmware.
Every time, It would ask for the encryption password on bootup.
Even if I haven't set one up.. With data format prior to installing
Anyway, got sick of re-setting apps on my phone, just installed Maximus HD ROM, and that's that ?

I think it was the DU team's decision to close all and not allow any XDA threads. Someone correct me if I am wrong.

I have had that happen when switching from a sense based ROM to LOS or AOSP and it's a "pita"... Anything that I want to keep gets moved to my SD card before I reboot to recovery.
I read through several threads and tried several possible solutions so I can't remember exactly which one worked.
I am currently on Verizon, official Nougat with the flashed us unlocked "patch", TWRP 3.1.0-1. If you are on Verizon or Sprint you need to patch the image with a missing image that is found in the us unlocked model (there are threads discussing it where you can find the file).

There is a DU Oreo-based build for the HTC 10: https://download.dirtyunicorns.com/?device=pme
For the time being it is under "RC". Downloading now, will report back!
Edit: ROM is very nice and is flying by. Only downside is that camera app is VERY slow... Also, woofer is not working (as expected).
What I like the most is that it is AOSP, i.e. no LineageOS stuff like AudioFX, etc. Customisation features are nice and the experience is close to Pixel with Stock OpenGapps. If the camera app is fixed, then this would be perfect (I believe it will, since this is the first RC release)!
Further notes: Capacitive buttons backlight is off by default (can't find any standard option to turn on, maybe with a kernel tool?) and notification LED does not work either. Don't mind for the capacitive buttons too much, but the LED is a real problem.

Installation
This ROM is currently distributed as factory images, similar to stock. Flash it the same way you would flash stock factory images. Don't forget to wipe all data using "fastboot -w" before booting the ROM.
Firmware is included, so there is no specific requirement for which version of the stock ROM you are coming from.
You can also use the quick & easy web installer, which allows you to install and update the ROM from any computer or phone without using the command line. The installer works entirely within your web browser and completes in as little as 4 minutes, depending on the speed of your internet connection. Consider using the web installer instead of installing manually.

Looks so tempting, downloading as I type.
Quick check - for the updates in future, would we still need to wipe data before booting if already in the previous ProtonAOSP version .
Thank you for bringing love to our pixel series !

Love to know what you have changed to alter battery usage before i download it, every other 11 ROM drains like a bathtub, even at idle

According to the Pixel 5 thread this ROM passes safetynet w/o magisk. looks interesting. Downloading now!

I didn't do anything specific for battery; it's just that battery tends to be better on custom ROMs than it is on Pixel 2 stock, partially due to being less bloated.

My ROM reports a fake security patch level to SafetyNet so basic attestation will always pass. However, I've observed that Google has started to roll out hardware attestation for the Pixel 2, so I also modified the model name with an invisible character to revert it back to basic. The Pixel 5 name is not used.

Sorry for the inconvenience, the problem lies in a botched SafetyNet fix that was missed in testing due to not flashing all partitions. You can make it boot temporarily by flashing the stock boot image. A hotfix that boots out-of-the-box will be up shortly.

No, ideally the latest stock ROM would be installed in both slots beforehand but that's only because this build is missing firmware. A hotfix will be up shortly with the latest firmware included.

Nice, got gpay working with magisk.
Unfortunately stuck on splash after installing edxposed. This is definitely an unreasonable request but if xposed edge features could be built natively into the rom I wouldn't need xposed

Xposed will never be supported, you are on your own if it's broken. I wouldn't recommend using it because it can cause all sorts of weird bugs.

A hotfix update has just been released to fix issues with a botched SafetyNet fix that caused most apps using HTTP outside of a browser to break, including Google Translate, SMS/MMS, and many others. I've figured out a new way to fix SafetyNet that doesn't come with those pitfalls, so SafetyNet is still passing out-of-the-box and apps will no longer break. A bug with sensitivity in the Active Edge settings has also been fixed, and missing firmware has been re-added so there is no need to flash the latest stock ROM first.
Re-download v11.2.0 from GitHub for the fixes. I've decided to re-upload it rather than bumping the version because the previous SafetyNet fix was very broken and also caused boot failures if boot.img wasn't replaced.

Re-download v11.2.0 from GitHub for the fixes. I've decided to re-upload it rather than bumping the version because the previous SafetyNet fix was very broken and also caused boot failures if boot.img wasn't replaced.

Great work, and thank you for the fast updates. Really looking forward to using the ROM when I clean format next time. Waiting for Google to release the last Security patch in December before making the jump, don't want to clean install every month. I usually stick with a ROM for a few months at a time.

Just to clarify if anyone is confused: this is an Android 11 ROM, not Android 10. XDA DevDB has no option for 11 so I had to put 10. I've just edited the DevDB info out of the post now and added 11 to the header so there should be no more confusion.

I am testing proton, so far its fast, snappy, and stable, one word of caution for anyone who uses my recommendations. Do not patch the boot.img as I always recommended, this landed me in a bootloop. Once I wiped the device clean, and started over (installed ROM+GAPP), then setup the device, then once setup, reboot to BL/TWRP (ADB TWRP), and installed MAGISK zip version from within TWRP, it booted fine. It only has an issue if you patch the boot.img from within MAGISK itself then ADB the boot.img. Normally this is the only method I use, but it will not work properly with this ROM (which is perfectly fine as the zip works great and passes safetynet out of the box)!
This ROM doesnt have all the goodies I am used to, BUT its a VERY decent, and stable 11 ROM so I DO recommend users to at least try it if you are looking for a decent 11 ROM. Battery life for me is on par with 10 so I do not see any major show stoppers using this as a DD. I will run it for a few days and report anything found (if anything is found), otherwise, its great.

thank you very much for your assessment! I also find this rom to be very stable, snappy and the slight changes to the stock rom are very well thought out - next to perfect! big thanks to the dev krag0n!

I'm coming from an Android 9 Custom ROM and I wanted to switch to this, the instructions states that it should just be a simple flash. Should I still start from a clean reinstall of stock Android 11 or does flashing this come with that already?

I didn't do anything specific for battery; it's just that battery tends to be better on custom ROMs than it is on Pixel 2 stock, partially due to being less bloated.

Stock has battery issues, all other 11 based ROMS ive tested have hadthe same battery issues. So i was asking in case you managed to find and fix the issue, because Google so far hasnt
I'll give it a crack anyways and see what its like, cheers

My ROM reports a fake security patch level to SafetyNet so basic attestation will always pass. However, I've observed that Google has started to roll out hardware attestation for the Pixel 2, so I also modified the model name with an invisible character to revert it back to basic. The Pixel 5 name is not used.

fwiw, there is no evidence that Google has or plans to force hardware attestation on Pixel 2/XL. i monitor reports of these things over in the magisk threads, and as part of my own magisk module, and theres no suggestion it will happen to Pixel 2/XL, more likely it will happen with 4+ than the old Pixel 2/XL....
Ill probably change the fingerprint back to Pixel 2/XL and Android 11, personally i dont see the point of spoofing another device when the Pixel 2/XL is still officially supported...just my opinion, no offence meant

My Pixel 2 XL has been getting hardware attestation in all of my tests recently if the model name is set to "Pixel 2 XL". It's possible that I'm being A/B tested and most users don't have this problem, but either way, I haven't been able to pass SafetyNet without changing the model name because of it.
Either way, I've added hacks into the system in my ROM to avoid spoofing the model name while still defying hardware attestation and passing SafetyNet despite being on a mismatching security patch level. I agree, I don't want to change the model name just to pass SafetyNet, so I've been coming up with other solutions to avoid doing that.
