What's the status on Oreo development? - Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers

I'm not asking in a passive aggressive way at all, but just curious what the hold up for aftermarket oreo roms is. Busy devs? Twrp issues? Other issues?
Just curious, that's all...

Oreo's so good that the need for custom ROMs is no longer there.

New Twrp is out. Doesn't work with SuperSU 2.82 SR4. But I'm sure Custom roms are flashable. Hopefully we will see something by the weekend?

S7E Oreo System dump

Hi XDA I bet you heard that a week ago a lucky guy received Oreo update for his S7E and since then users kept asking him for a system dump So he finally uploaded, and i have extracted it successfully.
This is just a system dump for now, later i will try to upload boot.img (kernel) too
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1NRxHutEjvijQgQ3ZKKJScgd_CHseqvAA
Kernel
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1uzegXhMbdhf2CmMxZMNQWtFFPrX7R09O
Happy porting
P.S : Because system has been extracted in windows there are 2 files with the same name but different in caps they are libblurdetection and libBlurdetection so they wont replace each other i rename libBlurdetection to libBlurdetection1.so

non xda rom development?

Curious if there is a dev community outside of xda for this device. I've seen some other roms like Dirty Unicorns that aren't shared here.

I can tell you that crdroid build is jacked up. It doesn't have gapps included, and vendor image doesn't match June. Weird though because I flashed gapps and the image after I noticed those issues...but problem is still there.
Running Validus now, good so far.

It's good. It isn't as feature rich as say RR, but Carbon has always been super clean and elegant looking. It's hard to explain.

Yeah I've tried carbon over the years but found it was always missing some tweaks.
There is an updated crdroid build on Android file host that the dev says should work well besides the vendor mismatch message at boot (you do need to flash rom then reboot to recovery and flash gapps before booting up). There's also a new RR build but odds are that the saturation option is still broken.

I tried that crdroid build and gapps didn't work. I flashed the correct way but they didn't "stick."
User Dirty Unicorns latest build. Saturation works.
Just an FYI. The validus build works well and has most of the features. I always used it on my shamu.

I tried a couple days ago. If there's a new build I'm not sure.
Dirty Unicorns has been the best rom I've used and I think I've tried them all in this past week. Validus is maybe second, followed by Nitrogen.

Ok cool, I haven't tried DU yet but it's usuakky pretty solid. Is it missing many features from RR etc? I've also heard that it's not as substratum friendly and requires a reboot to apply.

Love your kernels! Great to see you here!
I used the elemental x app to flash your kernel since we have no twrp yet. I lost root in the process. How would I root this?

You would need to flash magisk with it in EXKM, I think it lets you flash several zips in a row.
EDIT: fixing my zip now so that it can retain root, new V2 build will be up with the fix

can't flash kernel with that method if no root. I'll have to try and get a modified boot image and root first, then come back to the kernel. Unless i'm mistaken?

Right. Which was my issue.
I guess the best way to get root is to flash the stock modified boot image in fastboot?

In theory you could just boot the modified stock boot image, then root your boot on your device, then reboot.
Edit: fastboot boot {nameofboot}.img

Oh yeah. Thanks.
Question though. Since I'm already running this kernel, does root even matter? I don't do anything that requires root.

Question Just bought this phone and saw No TWRP?

Hi there coming from oneplus 7Pro and i am able to get the root but not able to find the TWRP? does it means we dont have TWRP? for our device?
I want to use that only for disabling the dm variety.... to decrypto the storage

Read only as in because we don't have a proper TWRP? Or read only as in, yeah it'll boot, but can't write anything to storage after? I'm unclear there. I don't have a 9 Pro to test this myself, but I'm in this part of XDA because I'm heavily considering getting one lol

Wow that's crap! Makes me wonder if a new way to decrypt will pop up at some point. Just for my own knowledge, if I tried, does this phone just bootloop? Trying to grasp the real world scenario here.
