Rom question - Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers

Pixel 2 XL have 3 custom roms already. Is there more devs that owns the bigger brother than our 5inch version?
I hope they start porting those to our pixel 2 non XL. :/

I have been wondering the same thing. It's shocking to me that there wouldn't be any developers that on this phone. I know this phone is new, but there should have at least been one custom ROM by now.

The original one has tons of them. I think the volume of devs now are mostly on oneplus and/or pixel 2 XL. I just hope someone ports it to our non xl.
Los rom is stable already in the 2xl.

I think it isn't possible because of changes in hardware.
Y would that matter? We have kk for a2

Jdog, you should give it a try. There's a tutorial on porting in the development section.

yeah because all of them are ported from similar devices
So I have the 5.0 ROM from the n5 and I'm willing to give this a try. Anyone willing to go in with me on this?

I don't think so...
Even 4 yrs old Motorola Defy (+) is also getting Android 5.0 Lollipop port :silly: :angel:
Well i hope that android L will be accessible for Atrix2 this year, may be through unofficial CM12……
I am sure our wonderful A2 devs will bring the Android 5.0 on our Atrix 2 .
Even a years old 800 mhz single core OMAP driven Defy had got Android 5.0 then why not Atrix 2!

Bootstrap Recovery isn't compatible with 5.0 like BMM ?

Not at all, in fact it's not compatible with flashing any rom after ICS, else you're sure to soft-brick. It's much older and unmaintained so it's virtually the last recovery we'd need for anything new.
Aside from that, I haven't done much about Safestrap since the last time. I've had a pretty busy week this week, and lately have been attending other matters so no sense in being impatient.

So Razr now have 4 LP ROMS but they are unstable I guess Edison is waiting for their stability
What about converting RAZR new safestrap to atrix 2? We could then flash rsdlite back to stock, install new safestrap, and port a 5.0 rom and flash? Suppose its obviously not that simple but an idea since 5.0 roms dont seem to work with bmm

Vzw OPM2.171019.029 - can it be rooted?

I have been able to gain root access to all my vzw devices except the latest LG G4 I received after mainboard repair.
Is there a way to root the vzw Pixel 2 XL I bought yesterday with 8.1.0 Security Patch Level April 5, 2018 - Build number OPM2.171019.029 ?
At this point the main reason I want to root the phone is to install Viper4Android.
Thanks,
nopes

My bad - I was under the impression for some reason that the two were lumped together.
No, but the pxl2 xl forum is an LG based phone and a known dev for the v20 thinks he may have just cracked MANY lg phones. It's looking very promising for unlocked bootloader on the xl in the very near future. I recommend disabling updates for the moment just Incase.

It's no closer now than it was in October when the device was released. He might as well take the updates, the phone is not getting rooted. Most have given up even trying.
Okay.
Op, If you'd like to read what I was talking about
Start on page 93 or so. It may not pan out, but it looks very promising.

Can I flash pixel 3 rom to pixel 2

Hi guys,
I read that no difference between pixel 2 and pixel 3. Then, I can flash pixel 3 rom to pixel 2?
Hi, no, it is not good idea...
I think many have said the upgrade from Pixel 2 to Pixel 3 isn't that big but they are obviously not the same phone. Just look at the specs.
Don't flash any ROM for a different phone unless it's a situation like OnePlus 3/3T where they have unified ROMs that work on both phones. The OP3/3T are closer to being the same phone than the Pixel 2 and Pixel 3.

One UI Beta For Note 10+ (Unlocked)

I know the beta hasn't rolled out for the Note 10 in the US yet. Are there any leaked builds like in previous years that can be installed via Odin or anything?

very fair. i did the same with the S3 and S5 within days of owning them, and i bought them at launch. Had to wait a couple days, but they were both rooted and ROMmed within a week of their individual releases.

Rom compatibility

Hi guys, pixel 3 Roms are compatibile with 3a?

No. Different hardware. There's a reason those phones cost a whole lot more than the 3a line
The devices use different sources, they share a kernel source but it still has to be built for the specific device.
