Hey, does anybody has an idea how I can get the Pixel Sounds app working?
If I choose a ringtone or notification I have the standard display to choose one.
I cannot choose Pixel sounds app in there. Tapping th Sounds app in app drawer just brings me to the settings of the app.

Didn't work for me either. The One Plus sound picker is kinda bad anyway, so I'm not surprised.
I found a zip of the Pixel Sounds files somewhere on XDA and dumped them onto my 7T's ringtone folder. Now I have all my Retro Riffs back.
edit: https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/general/flashable-pixel-sounds-t3878878
It's a flashable zip, but I just extracted-copied since I haven't rooted yet.

Hi all.
I am at a loss. Running AOKP (4.0.4) with Nova Launcher. Out of nowhere yesterday, this Power control widget decided to add itself to the notification area. I dont even know how it got there and sure as hell dont know how to get it off of there. I know you can add it to one of the screens but did not know it can be added in that area. Does anyone have any idea where this setting is if it exists? I would like to know how to get rid of it before reflashing the ROM.
I know there is another set of toggles you can add which I had but then I was stuck with 2 power control widgets in the notification area. Thanks.
Try touching the settings button in your notification area
I did but then it adds or deleted another set of toggles on top of that one lol

In your app drawer find "Power Controls" and Uncheck the checkmark in the Notifications widget box, and press the pin button to turn it off in the accessibility menu.
Or
Uninstall the entire app

Thanks, man. That did it. I realized that I hid the app. Once I unhid it and unchecked that checkmark, it went away.

I know. I used Nova in the past. I thought maybe they just added this recently.
its a app named power control.
Source : http://www.kickedface.com/2017/10/download-google-pixel-2-new-alarm.html
When Google released the first Pixel and Pixel XL, they came with new alarm, notification, and ringtone sounds. Looks like Google will do this with every Pixel because today, we have the new alarm, notification, and ringtone sounds from a Pixel 2, so you can use them on your own device.
There are no old sounds, all of them are new. To download them, go to the source! THEY ARE AMAZING
Where do the UI sounds go?

Can't do those without root. UI sounds live in the system partition

Maybe could boot TWRP and use TWRP fileanager instead of root?
I just googled it... They go in /system/media/audio/UI
But I haven't really noticed any different sounds. Lock sound is the same button presses are the same... So what's different? I've noticed the ringtones and such are the same though
Thanks a lot! Everything works fine!

Not sure if you are still wondering, but yes, this is normal unfortunately. I've gone as far as setting up a Tasker profile to get around it.
Don't really see the big deal

Can you share your Tasker profile?
Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using XDA Labs
Don't know but mine is silly loud on alarms and tones.
Sound definitely comes out of both speakers during incoming calls and notifications. However, when choosing a sound in the settings, it does only come from the bottom speaker.

I have attached my prj.xml I have literally never shared a Tasker project so I hope this is sufficient! If you have any questions, let me know! Just remember to set the ringtone in Android settings to "none".

Sure thing! If you haven't already, you're going to want to download the tasker app. Once you've installed that, open it and (like the previous post mentioned) go to its preferences and disable "beginner mode" under the "general" section. Then go back to the main screen and long press on the home icon in the bottom left corner. Tap "import" and then navigate to wherever you downloaded my profile and click on it. That should import the project. Once the project is imported, you should see "Phone Ringtone" next to the home icon on the main Tasker screen. Tap on that and it should bring up 4 profiles. At the top, tap on the tab that says "Tasks" and that should bring up a list of 4 tasks. Tap on the one labeled "Play Ringtone" then click on "Music Play". To the right of "File", tap the icon that looks like a magnifying glass, then navigate to the file you want to use as your ringtone. After that, make sure all the profiles are enabled on the main screen, then go to Android settings and set your ringtone to "None" so you won't have a ringtone AND music playing each time someone calls you. Hope this helps!

As I commented in another thread, I imported this project, made a test call to my cell phone with Google Voice/Hangouts from my PC, and it works and sounds great! Thanks again!
I believe there is an actual issue here.
If you play music and have the notification selection for SMS or phone calls open, and pause the music and select a notification or ringtone, it will play from both speakers and be loud and sound great.
If you play it again, it will suddenly only play from the bottom speaker. If this is intended, it's not a good decision in my opinion. It's way too quiet.
so this XML fixes the issue and makes ringtone play via both speakers?
because i rooted my phone, didnt find a solution, restored back to stock. just want to make sure this works, to go through the rooting proccess again,.
I had an iPhone for a few years and the pixel brought me back. The progress android has made has been phenomenal but I see a few things missing that used to be here before. Honestly I think I'm overlooking it but who knows.
FYI I have an unlocked bootloader and am running magisk running stock rom and kernel.
1. I used to love my Note 1's navbar with the search and menu button in the navbar. I remember xposed being able to do it but the modules haven't been updated and just cause a bootloop on the pixel. The customnavbar by paphonb doesn't allow you to have the menu button on the bar. Is there a way to make this work with oreo?
2. What happened to the text notifications? I replaced Google's main text app with Textra but I recall there being custom notifications and ringers all being in the contacts app.
3. What happened to changing the apps notification sound? Back then it was really easy to set the sound of the apps but I hardly see that feature.
4. Can you change the lockscreen clock font? I changed my system font and the clock has a question mark where the colon used to be. I know I could find another font but I really like this one.
5. How do you get in and out of the phone quickly? I find myself double tapping on the display and most of the time it works. Is there a better way?
Note: I saw some of these tweaks were on substratum but I couldn't get it to work for me. I tried to use substratum but the themes won't take because I'm on stock or because I don't know what I'm doing. I would like a clean lockscreen or one where I could swipe to the left or right and start recording. I forget the name but there used to be an app that customized the lockscreen.
If anyone could help me figure out Oreo I would greatly appreciate it!

Thank you so much for your help!
The font fix is exactly what I needed. I hated that square or question mark for the colon!
The custom nav bar app is the one I was talking about by php. I don't see a way to add the menu button to the nav bar on that app but I'll look and confirm.
I still use my iPhone silicone cases for this phone so the fingerprint won't work. That's disappointing I thought there might be a quicker way.
Thanks though!

It does but it doesn't let you add the menu to the navbar. And it also removes the battery percentage from the status bar for me. I wish it worked because that would be perfect for me with the navbar and customizable sounds [emoji21]

Either get a new case or cut a hole for the fingerprint reader. Problem solved ?

That's fair, but they aren't meant for the pixel phones. Sell them and get a new one with a proper cut out for the fingerprint reader.

So I installed it but I'm not sure what to do next. System tuner was already activated but I don't see any other options. Do you have the original thread this was posted in? I don't want you to spoon feed it to me but I'm lost after the flash

So this adds the button that looks like the menu but it doesn't function like the menu at all. It disappears and I think it has to do with the 66 being set as the code. I don't think that's the right code for the menu button to actually work. I took a screenshot.
Either way I'm giving up for now
So its new phone day (well its day 3) and i have problems i hope you have solutions. So the old phone (also running pie) ment i could change my text tone (tone1) facebook notifications (tone 2).
So i now have tone one as the default tone but it now is every tone on the phone, so easy go in the app and change it. Except messages does not have a sound option for notification.
Not to worry i think i can just change facebooks sound ....nope that don't have a sound for notification section ... ah i think i can turn facebook sound off .... i only need to see the notification in the shade ... nope facebook doesn't have that either ... any advice?
Thanks in advance
