[ROM] [DEV] Archlinux Phone - GNU/Linux for Android devices project

Archlinux Phone for Sony Xperia S
Part of GNU/Linux for Android devices project
First of all, this project is not ready for end users but everything is provided to build an archlinux system for the Sony Xperia S. So you will be able to have a complete system with GPU hardware acceleration, support of vibrator, sensors, GPS, wifi etc (everything is not yet tested like bluetooth, nfc...). Graphical applications are already able to display (Qt/Kwin tested but GTK3/kwin should be ok too).
This project is not just for this device and is really open to support multiple devices and GNU/Linux distributions. So you can share this project everywhere (xda, distributions forum...) ! Contribution are welcome and can be discussed directly on this thread to share efforts.
Introduction
This is a project to create a convergence between the desktop and the mobile/phablet/TV... so to build new mobile OS based on existing GNU/Linux distributions with the most common parts possible. We share some common base between mer-hybris (SailfishOS) and Ubuntu Touch but the architecture and integration are different (refer to Architecture).
Cell phone are powerful and expensive for flag ship so why just use it as a phone ?
Imagine that your cell phone can become your core device ! Plug it to a big screen and this is your workstation ! Plug it to an 'empty' laptop (no CPU, no RAM needed ...) and this is your laptop ! Move everywhere and this is just your mobile phone !
This is what motivate this project.
Applications
Applications are critical on a mobile platform and we hope to support Android application as soon as possible (need further studies to complete the architecture).
GNU/Linux applications are already compatible but not always adapted for a mobile phone for now but... We hope a lot of plasma mobile and KDE convergence guideline for Application developers
Source code
There is few projects and some fork available under my github but if you want to start to port a new distribution or a new device, everything is documented in the gnulinux_support project.
Android needs to be modified but we deliver a solution that permit to be integrated upstream and so to compile Android or Android for GNU/Linux with the same code.
For now we have only Android 5.1.1 patches available but 6.0 will come soon. CyanogenMod 12.1 and 13.0 can be a good target to support a lot of devices in the future (or at least to simplify the portage process per device).

Project status
This project is in an early stage and for developers but we created solid base of works and the portage of plasma mobile, ofono, ... and amazing features will start over those solid base to provide an end user product
Todo :
pulseaudio support for GNU/Linux - Android Hw (and maybe for Android to support sound from Android application)
fix libinput/kwin environment
ofono (or maybe an alternative/hybrid solution that can use the Android Telephony Framework ? no study yet on this point)
flashing after boot.img package update + generation of a custom initramfs
security with crypto, firewall and SELinux (SELinux or equivalent integration will mainly depend of the distribution support but for now this is disabled)
plasma mobile or other ?
localisation framework (see freedesktop project)
OMX
merge everything possible to every upstream projects used to create GNU/Linux for Android devices
overlayfs into kernel ? (not mandatory but can be a great solution for the Android rootfs and schroot)
... (a lot that I forget)
BUT despite this long list of todo... We already did :
New architecture (GNU/Linux and Android integration, systemd, libhybris, chroot, wayland ...)
SurfaceFlinger Composer supported by Qt and Kwin
schroot for Android (Android can run into a chroot and we can interact easily with it)
systemd integration (with reboot to bootloader and recovery, Android /init support, etc)
libhybris_ext (compatibility version with support of Android 5+)
Android integration with GNULINUX_SUPPORT (rc, init, busybox, ramdisk, OTA ... adaptation)
clean rootfs with only 2 symlinks that permit to see that we are on an Android device (nothing more)
OpenGL support (with backend hwcomposer or SurfaceFlinger)
Archlinux support (OTA and packaging)
Design a possible solution for a lot of other GNU/Linux distributions (share architecture and Android adaptation)
Documentation
Download
Binaries will be available when really usable for end user. For now everything can be compiled from source code

Devices supported
Sony Xperia S (nozomi): work in progress (this is our reference device)

RESERVED

I will provide OTA file, binaries (archlinux packages), images and video to show what is working and how really soon

Very interested in this,is HDMI out working?

Multi screen is not yet supported on kwin_wayland so for now I have just focused to render on the main screen (0) but it will be possible to do it for hdmi (1). But for sure I hope to support hdmi output.
For now I will focus to port plasma-mobile/ofono/pulseaudio.

Impatient to try another gift from genius mickybart.
Waiting............

wow something new
waiting eagerly...

lovely, cannot wait to try it
finally there is hope to ditch android, ios and windows

I have not a lot of time to work on this project with the release of nAOSP b11 but once done I will rework on it and provides binaries for Devs.
But, I think that this "new OS" powered with plasma is a good choice and I'm happy to see that plasma 5.7 integrate such kind of features :
https://www.kde.org/announcements/plasma-5.7.0.php
https://blog.martin-graesslin.com/blog/2016/05/virtual-keyboard-support-in-kwinwayland-5-7/
Great improvement have been done on Wayland support too.
If some of you are interesting to do some packaging with Archlinux, I'm really interested to get some help to provide a usable system for end user. The work for now is more too package/install user tools (so integration of components). I miss pulseaudio and ofono patching but I'm optimist to solve every issues.

finally nAOSP 6.0 b11 and b12 took me more time than expected but I'm back on this project.
For information, I updated everything to Qt 5.7.x support.
Some pull request have been done and are in discussion for at least qt5-qpa-hwcomposer-plugin (mer-hybris).
I decided to don't provide binaries for now as there is not a lot of sense to do it except if you are interesting to help the project (mainly to package some stuffs, integrate tools for GPS, ofono, pulseaudio etc).
I just finalized to record a small video. I will cut it and upload it to prove that archlinux arm phone can be a reality with the proposed new architecture (and on our Xperia S).
I will work again on the kwin/libinput issue. Maybe just a logind/dbus/kwin discussion issue. Once fixed that should permit to have a graphical keyboard by default (I know that for iOS or Android this is normal... but not really on a GNU/Linux desktop) !
I continue to look for help on this project and if you can create some packages like the one for plasma-mobile and derived repo let me know in PM or in the thread.

small video of the project
https://vimeo.com/177893595

Great achievement today
libinput is working and so I'm now able to move windows, plug a keyboard to write a text file, plug the mouse (pointer is not visible) ...
Menus are well displayed now with the good size.
Next steps : pulseaudio, wifi, plasma-mobile... (and bug fix on the kwin backend).

wow mickybart !. u just struck my interest in coming back to this phone! amazing work. my phone was unusable and parts needed replacement. looking at the activity of yours in this section made me repair the device and try out your work.. cheers mate! keep going with ur awesome work!

OnePlus X (onyx) port
I'd like to port this to OnePlus X (onyx). What's a preferable Android OS that I should use? The device comes with manufacturer's OxygenOS, which was made open source. OxygenOS was based on Android 5.1.1. I've also used Cyanogenmod 13 on this device. Out of these 3 options, I prefer CM. Any considerations I should keep in mind making this choice?

I have a Sony Xperia S and a OnePlus One and I'd like this port!
On my OnePlus One I'm using Ubuntu Touch that is very cool but apt-get doesn't work so I can't install other apps.
I really like this on my "old" Xperia S !

Hi @latgarf1,
Sorry for my late answer. I'm busy with Android 7.
That would be nice to have another device on this project to have a better view and maybe have a real alternative in the future .
I will ask a moderator if we can move this thread to a general one.
Advantage to use Android 5.1.1, is that every patches are available and tested to run Archlinux with android Hw support.
But as OxygenOS is not pure AOSP you will maybe need to cherry-pick those patches.
So it is preferable to maybe try to use CM-13 but everything need to be done on that side. I have now a device (Samsung S3) that is able to run CM-13.0 so I will be able to help in case of an issue to port the code to CM-13.0.
The big advantage to try to do it on CM-13.0 is that we can touch a lot of device in the future ! If CM is open, we will be able to push the patches upstream because those patches will not interfere with Android build as this is the case for Ubuntu Touch and mer-hybris patches.
I have not take a lot of time to continue this project since a while but I'm able to run desktop applications with windows management + opengl acceleration etc... I need to work on audio part (in progress), modules to integrates sensors (but sensors are already working). The last video posted do not show those progress.
Let me know your advice and if you thing to base your work on CM 13.0, I will probably switch the development to the Samsung S3 instead of Xperia S (but I will try to keep Xperia S in sync ).
I'm really interested to have some help to speed up this project and to have more motivation for it
You can take a look on the documentation and let me know if you need some help (that will permit me to improve the documentation too).

Here I really want to don't do any difference between a PC and a smartphone. So every tools used on a PC should work on the smartphone (update the kernel and manage initrd should be, at the end, possible to do in the same way than on the desktop ).
Do you know if you are using pulseaudio on Ubuntu Touch ? And do you know in which way it is done ?
For now I'm following mer-hybris and Sailfish to implement it by creating a droid module for pulseaudio.

I've not tried arch but have attempted similar to this project with Debian (raspbian) on ancient hardware with partial success.
As free time rears its rare head I'll be trying to adapt your project for my newer HTC based on cm13.
By the way, your work on N ril from github is great, allows my cm14 to get/make calls without rebooting. Now if I can just figure out why rild takes forever to stop dying and respawing and start actually running...

I don't know how the audio works but I know that it works.
This is the ubports repo https://github.com/ubports?tab=repositories
If you want me to type some commands on the ubuntu touch terminal let me know.
EDIT : I searched and I think that the Oneplus port is using pulseaudio but I don't know how does it work.

Click here to get to the new post where we'll keep updating this rom
What it is
It is an LineageOS 14.1 alpha build from official LineageOS sources devices trees and fresh caf 3.4 kernel port. This is not related anymore (2017-03-22) to the Sony Open Device Project (sonyxperiadev). They work on a different way and we are helping each others as often as possible.
This rom is worked to be as stable as possible to be used as a daily driver. There are no changes into LineageOS sources, manifest to build is attached in this post. The idea is to share this built with the community to improve this rom. If it is good enough, maybe, someday, get official again for our D6603. Thanks a lot to @tomascus who made this possible.

Who can use it
It is only for Z3 and UNLOCKED UPGRADED BOOTLOADERS​
How to install
%= Only needed at first flash
% Update ROM to .291 with emma (or Flashtools)
% When install is done go into fastboot mode (plug usb + vol down key = blue led)
% Flash this TWRP (version 3.1.x) | If you are a Z3 Dual user, flash zip below before installing Z3 Dual version. / If you already are in .291 and have a working TWRP (modded rom/kernel/adv kernel) you can use the flashable zips below instead.
Shutdown the device
Unplug the usb cable
Maintain volume down & power until you see twrp splash screen
% Wipe system, cache and data
Install rom zip (+ % gapps if you need it)
Reboot
Rolling back to stock
Flash stock rom with emma or flashtool
If you flash with flashtool remember to check wipe apps_log and userdata partitions to get a clean install
What gapps to flash?
Use f-droid
You can flash any gapps you want, our partition is 2GB and rom is 700MB:
Code:
z3:/ # df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/block/mmcblk0p23 2.4G 680M 1.7G 28% /system
Just take 'arm' and not 'arm64'
Gapps need to be flashed at first rom flash!

FAQ
How to post
I want to say thanks --> Thanks you. Gratitude is really important for us. Find some posts from us and hit thanks buttons. It will be most appreciated You can also use @tomascus donate link.
We are here into the dev thread, not user one. For now the rom is under development.
We wont talk here about not related to device problems (where is foo setting, how to flash bar).
Reports will simply be ignored if already answered.
Reports without logs or step to reproduce are useless (read contribute).
Substratum is officially not supported into Lineage.
You are welcome to post your review: what is working, not working, etc... Check into know issues before.
You are welcome to post your unusual and not supported use-cases (like: "I have only ipv6 at home and the RA doesn't work without IPv4")
You are welcome to report any typo, error, etc...
No variant are supported now. Only D6603. You want support for variant? Consider help on porting or a hardware donate.
My device is screwed and I need it for my job interview in 1h --> go to IRC (how to report problem, #3)
I want say how SODP is bad --> Read this and above.
This is not against you but try to keep thread clean as a dev reference. Thanks in advance.​
What is not working
BT headset calls --> pending. Detailed post.
OTG --> 2017-04-16

Adaptive brightness not good. --> Fixed by @xkeita
How to report problems
To report problems there are multiples ways, depend on each person. The How to contribute section provide information on the way to do and should be applicable to everyone. The How to get logs section is the final touch on how to report problems.
Thanks wanting reporting, as, for an early development rom, reports are a necessary step to move forward
Some examples:
I cannot record videos with open camera.

Is useless on a dev thread and you probably won't get an answer.
Just wanted to report that this ROM doesn't support my 128gb sandisk SD card..and gives a message, unsupported SD card and asks to format.. this is the only bug which prevents me from using this ROM.. however the same card works perfectly fine on all other ROMs like 7.1 CM or AICP ROM and also all lollipop ROMs and stock ROM.

Is better as there is explanation, context and cross rom tests. With log this report used to be perfect.
This guide is really detailed and explained everything about bug reports. (deserve all bug-report cases, not specially this thread or xda)
@steadfasterX write a good guide about IRC, here you can get quick support (like when your device is totally broken, etc...)
steadfasterX said:
You talked about using IRC to get support. What is this and how can I use that?
Meaning of IRC => Internet Relay Chat. A very good IRC client is this one here: hexchat <-- download it and read the quick intro to get started: Quick-Start
--> when asked if you want to join a channel type in "#LineageOS" and after connected you will be in.
If you do not want to install anything you can simply use the webchat instead directly over here: Webchat
Howto communicate? IRC means many people talking the same time and there are some goods and bads to know about using IRC.
So please read this mini and very quick overview (especially the good manners there): Good manners in IRC (matches for all OS not for fedora only)

How to get logs
Here you have some info about how collecting log. It is always better to include reference to the Installed version.
How to contribute
I have c knowledge:
All the sources to build this rom are public and are provided into the manifest, in the howto build section. It means all the repository are from LineageOS github, except those mentioned into this manifest. Depending on where you find the bug/improvement there is different way to contribute: gerrit, github PR, etc... Contact me to test with you patch as everyone can try and give feedbacks then join IRC to discuss the best way to merge.
Code is like hieroglyphs for me:
No worries you can contribute anyway! Install the rom, do tests, read failure logs, look at internet for potential fix/similar users experience, is the biggest part of debugging. Then collect all of this and write your results here.
Code is like hieroglyphs for me and logs are worst:
No problem, collects logs the right way if you can, explain how you encounter the problem: detailed step to reproduce could be enough: explain exactly how you encounter the error/problem, it should produce each time someone repeat your steps. Then we will be able to fix it.
Installed version
When reporting problems, specially for work in progress, it is good to provide the build version:
- 'uname -a' will give you the kernel version,
- 'getprop ro.cm.display.version' will give you the rom build version.
What is LineageOS
LineageOS is re-brand of CyanogenMOD. At the end of 2016 some bad things appends. Lineage is the same rom that CyanogenMOD so you can still dirty flash, etc... However as all *cyanogenmod.org services are down, OTA update will not work until you flash lineage one time.

Thanks for posting this rom. Thank you for your awesome developing.

Great work man!!! I hope you will continue you work on CyanogenMod for Xperia Z3!!! Thanks

great work and z3 compact?

What I don't understand is you seem to be having a whole bunch of issues with CM, whereas Rhine devices build perfectly well and all features work on them.
Have you tried building AOSP using Sony Xperia dev sources?
Back in the cm13.0 days, all I used to do to build cm13.0 was use all AOSP device trees and HALs and just make a cm.mk and include vendor/cm/common_phone.mk and everything used to work perfectly fine. Have you tried that?
Anyway, I love the way you develop and your determination. I hope to see you around here often!

Thanks a lot but your are in a position to know that all the dev had been done by others and I am only porting for now
The biggest source of issue building CM was the codename change. Into sonyxperiadev and all other close to OEM codename is 'leo'. Historically cm rename the device to 'z3' because they already have leo (HTC hd2, IIRC). Here start the pain: as you build too you know a *bunch* of files are codename dependent. Also I wonder if a codename check isn't present into blobs.
I haven't tried to build aosp for now as I didn't have enough free space and wont learn another toolchain. But I test carbon rom which is really efficient.
I tried what you said and give me the best result. Now my branch are ~even with sonyxperiadev. The problem is those version can't be pushed to official CM repo.
We are now experiencing problems on hardware accelerated display, like FPS drop, but I'm not able to fix this. So next step is deep sleep. Are you experiencing this too? Can I ask you some points about this please? Like enabling debugfs, collecting logs after tests etc...?

is the issue isolated to the Aries or do Leo users have this issue as well? Similar question to Honami board devices?

As far as I know, which is from my honami tests, deep sleep issue was present only in AOSP builds. A quick look at BBS revealed that it was the radio(ProxyServer) that kept the device awake, and using the phone without SIM would let it go into deep sleep.
When I got a chance to build and test cm14.1, there was no such issue with deep sleep.
In order to figure out whether we have the same issue, could you (or someone else in this thread) use BBS and tell me what the app says?
As for hardware issues: since you're using Sony HALs and device trees, I don't understand why you're having said issues.
AOSP doesnt need any new knowledge, in fact, it should be easier to build and test. If you can clear some space, I suggest you try it. It could rule out any issues with the device trees or Sony HALs, and then you can focus on finding the issue with CM.

As you can see there are no releases in the opening post. I guess that if you really want to help testing you have to ask nialyk for a flashable version. Be aware though that, as stated by the developer, the ROM has still many bugs that harm usability.

Link is not yet added because I'm dealing with weird GPU issues and I'm waiting for a feedback about a fix before adding it. It should be ok in some hours.

IDK what BBS is but the /sys/kernel/debug/wake_lock table is really instructive. From the early experiments we have two issues: like you ril is one of them, and usb is the second one. If your reboot the device in airplane mode without usb attached wake_locks are a bit better.
Yes building AOSP is a good idea but @accleg2011 never get it working so I really doubt I can. Device was really fine on CAF display, game were really smooth, menu too. With SODP display menu are ok now but game are laggy and I don't know how to check if they are software or accelerated rendered. I tried to mimic hammerhead config.mk (it is the same device than z3 except for camera) but it doesn't provide results. I'm almost sure it is another PEBKAC with a missing flag.
I have a bunch of log to analyse and will post my results a bit later. Thanks for your advice, maybe I simply should buy another ssd.
If you have some time to waste, can you try frozen bubble on your device with SODP display, please? When balls pop, it is the most GPU intensive rendering. Is it laggy for you too? (from what I see ~5FPS)

Pardon my clumsy. I quote you here because thinking that cm can provide useful results for your question as we are using the same devices trees and blobs. Won't do it again.

Do you take a look at Myself5 repos ? You can ask him a CarbonRom test but his repo where very helpful for leo. Also, maybe you can reuse mine and we can concentrate our efforts. I try to be as close as possible to SonyCM ones.
I will update the OP with the build instructions when XDA will work.

2016-11-28 release
Rom link added.
I'm currently uploading screenshots.
A bunch of peripherals are broken. Since I test this PR bluetooth is broken.
Hardware accelerated part are missing or broken.
Camera is partially working, switching to video mode crash camera app.
Deep sleep still not working.
Gps seems to be broken too.
Don't forget we are into a dev thread please, so post comments with logs, faulty line or patches. Thanks.
This rom is not intended to be used as a daily driver and is unstable!

cm14.1 wowww :good:

After a total mess-up with bluetooth, a full rebuild make it ~work again (still some crash).
And 3D apps seems to be working too.
Can you confirm/infirm difference please?

[R&D] Research and Development for the ASUS Zenfone 4 Selfie Pro [ZD552KL/Z01M]

WARNING: This project has been put on hold due to the fact that my phone is now broken. I will resume work on it as soon as it's fixed.
- We made a lot of progress since the last build but we are unable to test new builds because my phone is broken. If anyone is willing to test new ROM builds on their phones, please reply to this thread, dm me or @Seppppx
Research and development for the ASUS Zenfone 4 Selfie Pro (ZD552KL/Z01M/Phoenix)
Our goal is to provide Android support for this phone that ASUS discontinued, they stopped the updates on Android 7.1.1, so we want to bring newer android versions by using custom ROMs.
We made a device and vendor tree but those still need a lot of improvements. We also know our kernel source works, so probably we'll be able to get a better custom kernel for this phone in the future. As for the time of this edit (27/09) we are still working on bringing a working Lineage 14.1 build, as for now we only have a build with only touch and the frontal LED working. I, personally, want to get at least an android 8.1 ROM working by the end of this year, but progress is slow, mainly because of the amount of time to build from source (about 24 or so hours for a clean LOS 14.1 build using my computer). We are still accepting any kind of help with this project so if you want to contribute, make a pull request on github, post a comment here or DM me..
Any help, research, contribution and development is welcome and appreciated.
Here are some useful links
-Phone Specs:
• https://www.gsmarena.com/asus_zenfone_4_selfie_pro_zd552kl-8808.php
-Device Sources:
• Device Tree: https://github.com/2003Frost/android_device_asus_Z01M
• Vendor Tree: https://github.com/2003Frost/proprietary_vendor_asus_Z01M
• Kernel: https://github.com/2003Frost/android_kernel_asus_Z01M
-People working on the project:
• @Seppppx
• @2003_Frost (me)

UPDATE (28/08/2020): We were able to make a booting Lineage 14.1 build. Still, almost nothing is working apart from sensors and the frontal LED but it's an improvement. Soon we'll be able to publish a working build. Down are some screenshots.

A huge thanks to @kdrag0n for the amazing rom and the work done on this rom.

I was just thinking how much I'd love to see this for the 3a.
Couple of things though;
1) Where's the device tree source and vendor blobs?
2) Its unfortunate that you baked in the google crap, one of the great things about custom builds is to get rid of that.

1. Soon I'll push source
2. I do have microg build for sargo as it is my main device, but not for bonito, so I did not post here on xda, if you want it join the support link group in the thread. Regarding google crap, for some users flashing gapps externally had less fluid experience so I did it.

I hope soon will be very soon, since I'm only interested in building myself anyway.
Have you spoken to @kdrag0n about adding in your source and making this "official"?

Device source
Vendor Source
Note:- I have few extra proprietary stuff added in vendor for Google Fi and stuff to work for users out the box which lineage does not have added in their vendor, so if you really want less vendor blob use lineage vendor. It will work without any issue, I think kdrag0n also uses them.
Regarding official builds, I don't have the same infrastructure as him(reason why I only posted gapps build here, it takes lot of time to maintain both gapps and non gapps build) nor the time to maintain it officially. as said in thread, this is my side project which I thought to share it with community. If things work well in future and I feel like doing it official, I may ask kdrag0n. Also idk if he is accepting new device as he is maintaining all the official devices alone by himself.

Here's a current source.
I don't know if it's trusted, or who the maintainer of this unofficial build is though. Just found it via telegram.

Nice one. It's really handy to be able to revive old, unsupported devices like the Pixel 3a, which is a perfectly usable phone and can be picked up for next to nothing.
Some of us don't care about de-googling our phones and really just want to extend their lifespan with security updates, so having gapps baked in to ProtonOASP is really nice. Especially when we're just trying to help out our non-technical friends get a bit more life out of their old phones. A consistent, familiar user experience is all they really want.
I was wondering though: Does your build (or any build of ProtonOASP) come with verified-boot signatures so that the device's bootloader can be locked down after the ROM is installed, or is CalyxOS the only option for this?
Unfortunately, Calyx are very puritanical when it comes to de-googling, and microG is just a terrible substitute for interacting with Google services. I tried it on the Pixel 3a, and it doesn't even sync the contact list from your Google account. My non-technical friend was not impressed.

GrapheneOS still has builds up for 3a, however new builds were terminated as of February. While it doesn't ship with gCrap preinstalled, installation is trivial as they've built a compatibility layer to make it work correctly (and much MUCH more securely) as user-installed software, which you can install from the program "Apps".

reboot to recovery (when you get to the "no command" screen, briefly hold power, tap vol up to enter stock pixel recovery)
wipe data/factory reset
reboot to bootloader
fastboot update zephyrus_raven_v2.zip
OR
fastboot update zephyrus_oriole_v2.zip
V1 was only posted on telegram
Changelog:
-Implemented Android 12.1 Easter Egg
-Fix suspicious spaces around mobile icons
-Fix QS mobile icon disappearing on theme switch
-Restore brightness adjustment on boot
-Force a reset if brightness adjustment is changed directly
-Doesn't let "extra dim" affect brightness adjustment
-Some Fixes & Improvements
Device side:
-Updated to latest Radioactive 5.10.110 Kernel built in- just like DerpFest, do not change kernel
-Powerhint updated to match Radioactive standalone zip Thanks @acuicultor
-Safety net passes out of the box without root
All custom settings are housed in the normal location relevant to the feature set. ie Pulse is in settings/sound. Also, feel free to use other launchers, but features such as smart space may have issues, same with themeing mods, and screenshot sharing.
Also, if you mod or change kernel, launcher, or add other mods, you are on your own. I cannot support every new variable introduced.
If you experience previously declared issues- as a result of said modification, undo your mods, clean flash(without mods), see if your issue persists, and if so, capture a log. If you do not do this, I will not address your issue. Simply, bc the issue is likely due to your own actions/mods.

Update 10-16-22
Guys i tried to do a zephyrus build for Raviole. My computer simply will not let me. It doesn't want to. And neither do I.
Sorry. My work for pixel 6 series is done. After using Pixel 7 Pro I clearly have no desire to do a build for Zephyrus/ Raviole.
A. I don't like that phone, I honestly f$#king despise it and always have. Plastic [email protected]&$ing steaming ....
B. Derpfest 13 was my swan song and is as close as perfect that can come for Raviole, use that.
If you would like to follow my work, it will have to be on the 7 series for Pantah
Thanks for the support and hanging out, best of luck everyone and keep in mind there are some great devs working on Android for this device. Check out their work!

Thanks to my awesome community of friends, testers, and many more... I would plug in the xda tags but I don't really use xda and don't know them anymore. I talk with you all in my chat and you all know the thanks are there
thanks again!

Super solid rom, no issues at all, thx for the assume build

Smoothest ROM I've used on Oriole to date

Welcome

@Hurt Copain Just to confirm, are there any Pixel apps/features missing or not working in this rom ie. magic eraser, camera, live translate, now playing etc.
And do I have to flash back to July 12.1 from latest A13 Beta 4 first and then flash?

Some users report magic eraser not working but it's bc of what we spoof to pass safety net. The community has some other method to use it. Check the chat. Everything else pixel end is just like stock.
Yes. Be on stock July. We aren't on Android 13 yet. So, use Android 12.1

Yes it would be best to return to July stable first

Awesome ROM! Super stable and ROM is buttery smooth. Great work as always @Hurt Copain

Good work buddy

OHHH YEAHHHH!!! GET IT PEOPLEEE!!!

Get it Jack Get It!
