I'm wondering how difficult it would be to run a Marshmallow ROM on the Pixel.
I wanted to run Xposed on the Pixel until Xposed for Android 7 is working.
I'm wondering if just installing an Android 6 ROM and kernel would have any chance in booting.

I think something like this would be pretty difficult. I'm not sure if it's possible but maybe a 6.0 from source if the device tree and what not could be imported from 7.1 to 6.0. I believe if that is done then it's just a matter of compiling a 6.0 build. I've had some success compiling AOSP but it's been a while and I didn't get that deep into it. Maybe someone with some more experience can chime in. Sounds like a fun group project.

So I wanted to get CM14 on the Google Pixel, I am not sure the situation with them and lineage os or whatever but is there a way to get CM14 or something similar that has root and can have root installed to the OS? Thanks any help would be great.
An unofficial build is available from @invisiblek. I used it for a week before switching back to 7.1.2 Google edition. Never had any issues with it.

I have installed and started running ressurection remix 7.1.1 Nougat for HTC One M8 on one of my VZW M8s. It is from this thread... https://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/development/rom-resurrection-remix-v5-8-0-t3507210
And so far seems great. I will check back in a few days down the road and post any issues I have found. It is nice to gave a Nougat option for this old phone!
Lineage Os 14.1 on verizon m8
I tried Lineage Os 14.1 which is also nougat and it was pretty good. I only used it for a couple hours though, because I quickly found out that Xposed framework is not optimized yet for Nougat. I couldn't do without the little tweaks that Xposed gives you that enables you to make a rom more personalized.
I would rather have marshmallow and wait for the (genius) creator of Xposed to integrate it into Nougat. What I noticed right from the start with Nougat was that apps install very quickly due to whatever reason that Nougat handles installation differently than all previous android versions I have used.
Hey there ladies and gentlemen!
Has anyone of you managed to get this rom running on the Polaris?
https://forum.xda-developers.com/pr...ment/rom-android-p-developer-preview-t3816659
I did everything as described in the OP but get stuck at the MI Logo after the reboot. It bootloop there to infinity and back!
I'm afraid theres something essential missing like the correct kernel/vendor 8.1 or something like that.
I installed the P beta without any problems and had some other GSIs running on my device. Resurrection Remix was the first that worked fine and now I use Pixel experience 8.1 from the treble thread.
Is anyone interested in looking into this? Would be so nice to have a Android 9 AOSP / Pixel Experience kind of rom for this device.
Best regards

Da*n, that's what I was afraid of. Do you know why exactly? The dev preview from Xiaomi works too, the kernel source and Android pie is officially released.
Hello guys,
I tried out different Android Pie ROMs, like Pixel Experience Pie and the Kirin-GSI AOSP Android Pie, but in the first OS, the camera didn't work and in the second ROM, the device overheated like hell and tethering didn't work. So, I'm looking for a stable Pie ROM because this is the whole reason why I unlocked the bootloader in the first place. I'm waiting the recommendations here.
The only that has everything working is the kirin-gsi because of the camera. But the batteru is terrible and is overheating and also i guess the rom is abandoned. The openkirin team is working in android p roms for kirin processors, so just wait.

But I tested all of the OpenKirin ROMs and every single one of them failed to keep the camera's picture quality from EMUI 8. This is the only ROM so far that managed to do this. I heard the overheating issues and battery draining can be solved by a custom kernel. Is there any custom kernels made for Honor 8 that support EMUI 8's partition table?

You might want to start by building an AOSP ROM for your device. Here's some info to get you started.
