Hi!
I bought Pixel XL to my collection of phones and i was wondering of there would be an option someone would develop some non-android ROM for this device. Sailfish OS or Ubuntu Touch, which now has it's GSIs going on.

You can currently get ubuntu touch on the pixel xl. There is a lot you have to do to get it to work. Check it out here:

My friend had a tizen phone. He threw it away after a month. So I think its not worth porting. Maybe Ubuntu Touch or something else might be interesting

IMO Sailfish OS is a more interesting OS to port since it has Jolla behind it as an active developer and also I like SFOS' Ui.
Ubuntu Touch / UBPorts is more like a dead end and K doubt that you will find that much developers for supporting the OS with apps.
Plasma Mobile is also another interesting one but in its current state it is afaik Ubuntu Touch with a Plasma Desktop but it may will support SFOS and Nemo apps in the future which would give it quite a good amount of apps.
Yes please port sailfish os to our zuk z2
Hi everyone.
I have a Samsung Tab Pro 10.1 and I currently running it on Lineage 14.1 with a Nova Launcher.
I like the Rom and they do a great job with it but I was wondering if someone is planning to make a Pixel Slate ROM.
As much as I like Linage Rom I much prefer a Stock android experience and the Pixel give the best experience of stock Android, so a Slate ROM for tablets would be awesome.
Hope someone has some info
Update.....
When I saw the first pixel tablet I immediately thought that the slate software would be as awesome as phone the OS.
But alas I was wrong....RIP pixel slate
So I suppose what I am really looking for is Pixel experience for the Samsung Tab Pro 10.1.
Has anyone got any ideas if that Rom is available and if not, what roms give the closest experience to pixel experience??
Thank again guys
I've seen some efforts like Plasma Mobile and Ubuntu Touch, both don't have support for Pixel 2XL... Are there any Non-Android based projects for Pixel 2 XL?
Thanks.

Looks like Graphene is the only non-Android OS available for Pixel 2. Check it out here: https://grapheneos.org/

I'm guessing you want this because you're one of those people who just wants to go against the grain, eh?
I remember when Android *WAS* against the grain.
The year was 2008, and I just got in my hands a brand new and not so shiny HTC Dream Android Developer Phone 1.
People said I was crazy, that it would never go anywhere.
Has anyone looked into building this for the Pixel 3XL? I've tried my hand at building stuff but it never works.

This is Android Lollipop. Not even worth the time IMO to build such a dated version of Android

I’m in the market for a new phone and would like to use LineageOS or possibly GrapheneOS and I like the security of the Pixel 3+ line. I need the fingerprint reader, so Pixel 4 line isn’t really an option, so I’m considering Pixel 3/3a XL or the 5. What I’m wondering is whether any developers are gearing up to support Pixel 5 LineageOS and what opinions are on the likely timeframe for that given the recent flood of support for the Pixel line. Are we talking weeks, months, or a year before it’s realistic to run LineageOS reliably on the Pixel 5? What’s been the timeframe for other new phones in the past?

Pixel 5 ships with android 11. So there will be no official lineageOS as long as 18.x isn't officially released. Maybe next year.

Thanks! Does that mean it would be impossible for LineageOS 17.1 (Android 10 based) to work on a Pixel 5 or that it’s unlikely that anyone would bother wasting their time on a short lived endeavor?
