Keep in mind...

  • DO NOT try to change the included kernel

  • DO NOT USE any other recovery than PixelOS recovery which is included.

  • You MUST format data with given PixelOS recovery

  • YOU MUST CLEAN FLASH IF:

    • You are coming from any other ROM or MIUI
    • You are coming from previous Android Version
    • You are coming from Non Retrofit ROM
  • If you face issues like poor RAM management or storage issues, you have not followed the instructions and/or have changed kernel/recovery. STRICTLY follow the instructions provided again before reporting any issues.

  • Formatting with PixelOS Recovery (yes, I mean PixelOS Recovery ONLY) is MUST during clean flash

Clean Flash (coming from a different ROM)

Clean flash involves formatting data which means you will be loosing data stored in the internal storage of your device, data in SD Card should not be affected. I will not be responsible for any loss of data.

  • Download ROM, recovery and super_empty files to your computer (click on recovery button for recovery and super_empty)
  • Reboot the device to bootloader (Fastboot Mode)
  • Flash empty super image by running fastboot wipe-super <path/to/super_empty.img> in terminal
  • Flash recovery image by running fastboot flash recovery <path/to/recovery.img> in terminal
  • Reboot to recovery mode
  • Go to main menu > Factory reset > Format data/factory reset > Format data - Back to Main menu
  • On your phone [which is in recovery mode], Apply update > Apply from ADB
  • Flash the ROM through ADB sideload by running adb sideload <path/to/rom.zip> in terminal
  • Reboot and voila!

Dirty Flash / Update

There will be no loss of data if everything goes well. Keep backups incase of any mishap. I will not be responsible for any loss of data.

  • Download ROM file to your computer
  • Reboot the device to recovery
  • On your phone [which is in recovery mode], Apply update > Apply from ADB
  • Flash the ROM through ADB sideload by running adb sideload <path/to/rom.zip> in terminal
  • Reboot and voila!

Notes

  • If you get the following error: fastboot: usage: unknown command wipe-super, make sure ADB and fastboot are updated to the latest version. You need fastboot version 28.0.2 or greater.
  • If installation fails with the following error: [liblp]Logical partition metadata has invalid geometry magic signature., make sure you did the previous step properly, and repeat it if needed
