Please could anybody test if ARCore is supported for Poco F2 pro?
Just try to install ARCore from google play.
There is only Redmi K30 on compatibility list from google there:
https://developers.google.com/ar/discover/supported-devices
Thanks.
Play services for vr is installed on my device. Not sure what to do now and I can install Google vr service thing. I don't have a headset though anything else I can check for you?
Poco F2 Pro is compatible with all AR and VR services from Google.
Thanks both of U.

Can you confirm me that you can also use depth API with this phone ?
Thanks in advance!

Ah sorry, I must have missed that check when I said that last time. It seems depth API is not currently supported on the Poco F2 Pro.
We'll have to wait and see if they bring support for it.

Thanks for your answer !
So google list about depth compatibility is up to date ?
I've seen an article about depth for allmost phones with a single camera, so why is there so few models which can handle depth data ?
If I have to choose a recent phone with depth support ( and with API 29, Android 10) , do you know which one to choose ?
Thanks in advance !

Normally the google list about depth compatibility is always up to date from what I know of.
But I'm confident that depth API will come to Poco F2 Pro soon enough, as the Redmi K30 Pro (so the Chinese version) is listed as compatible. I think it's only a matter of official support from Google for the global version.
As you said, pretty much all Android (10) phones could be compatible with this, but it seems they do need some sort of official support from Google to turn that API on?
I didn't find any info about depth API on the Poco F2 Pro, I only tried a few apps to check, and Google's ARCore Depth Lab app is listed as incompatible on my phone when I open a link to the Play Store. So this led me to the conclusion that it's currently unsupported for now.
As I'm not a huge user of AR, nor a developer of such apps, I can't really recommend any phone that has this technology. You should make some research for yourself. You could also wait a few weeks and see if Google lists the Poco F2 Pro as compatible with the soon-to-be-released Android 11 coming early September.

Update on that last message, after checking Google's ARCore list I was wrong about depth support for the Chinese version. The Redmi K30 Pro is only listed as ARCore supported, but nothing said about Depth API support.
Gotta wait and see I suppose..

Actually, we can't see "Supports Depth API" for the K30 Pro neither ...

As far as I know, almost all android 10 devices can be compatible with ARcore, but not all phones compatibles with ARcore are gonna be compatible with Depth API.
This is because Depth API is a very processor heavy API, and Google needs to review every phone's cpu performance, as well as it's motion sensors performance before giving them the necessary certification for enabling Depth API.
But Poco F2 pro is a very powerful device, so I'm sure it is gonna be updated soon to support depth api. I'm waiting for the same on my Mi10 5g.

I have it installed, yes
Depth API works on POCO F2 PRO without root using VirtualXposed, or if you got root and want to modify fingerprint of ArCore app, you can do this also.
Here's an Youtube video about this:
* don't forget to use https://repo.xposed.info/module/com.bigsing.changer because Spoof My Device isn't compatible to Android 10+
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UwY6VH0lcos
Here's a DEMO of it on POCO F2 PRO: https://youtu.be/-2unzupWL9s
OP: Please edit first post and add this, because this is the first thread that appears on Google about this.
do I need to have Gcam to be able to use it like you on this video? I have ARCore installed with my custom ROM that I use
So can I like bribe someone at google to finally flip the switch on the depth API? The method posted above stopped working since the update to Android 11, and it's ridiculous to have concrete proof it works just fine on the hardware, but have it disabled on google's side :I
It seems like proper depth support was added today! Took them a while but at least it's here, and all the depth enabled apps show up in the store and install as they should

Introduction
iodéOS is a privacy-focused operating system powered by LineageOS and based on the Android mobile platform. iodéOS aims at protecting the user's privacy with a built-in adblocker and by freeing the smartphone from snitches.
The objectives in the conception of this ROM are threefold:
To keep the stability and security level of LineageOS, by minimizing the modifications made to the system. Apart the system modifications required by the adblocker, we mainly only added a few useful options commonly found in other custom ROMs, made some cosmetic changes, modified a few default settings to prevent data leaks to Google servers.
To ease a quick adoption of this ROM by new users. We especially target users that are concerned by the protection of their privacy, but are not reluctant to still use inquisitive apps like Google ones. We thus included MicroG as well as a coherent set of default apps, and simplified the initial setup of the system. Particularly, an initialization of MicroG has been made with GCM notifications allowed by default, a privacy-friendly network location provider (DéjàVu) pre-selected, as well as Nominatim Geocoder.
To provide a new and powerful way of blocking ads, malwares, data leaks of all kinds to many intrusive servers. We are developing an analyzer, tightly integrated into the system, that captures all DNS requests and network traffic, as well as a user interface (the iodé app). Compared to some other well-known adblockers, this has the advantages of:
Avoiding to lock the VPN for that use. You can even use another adblocker that uses VPN technology alongside our blocker.
Being independent of the kind of DNS server used by the system or set by an independent app: classical DNS on UDP port 53 or any other one, DNS over TLS (DoT), DNS over HTTPS (DoH), ..., as we capture the DNS requests before they are transmitted to the system function that emits the DNS request. What we do not support, is DoH when it is natively built into applications, i.e. when an app communicates directly with a DoH server, without asking name resolution to the system. It would require to decrypt HTTPS packets between such an app and the DoH server, which may create a big security hole.
Precisely mapping DNS requests and network packets to the Android apps that emitted (or received) them.
Deciding which apps have a filtered network usage (by default, all apps), and which ones can communicate with blacklisted servers.
Since its first versions, we added many features to the iodé blocker: several levels of protection, fine-grained control over the hosts that should be blocked or authorized, displaying statistics on a map to see the quantity of data exchanged to which countries, clearing statistics... We are actively developing the blocker, and new functionalities will be regularly added.
Features
Changes in LineageOS to prevent data leaks:
Default DNS server: Google's DNS replaced by Quad9's 'unblocked' servers in all parts of the system.
A-GPS: patches to avoid leaking personnal information like IMSI to supl server.
Captive portal login: connectivitycheck.gstatic.com replaced by captiveportal.kuketz.de for connectivity check.
Dialer: Google default option replaced by OpenStreetMap for phone number lookup.
Pre-installed apps:
We included many useful default apps, but our choice cannot suit everyone; so we added the possibility to remove them. It can be done at the end of the phone setup, or at any time by going to Parameters -> Apps & Notifications -> Preinstalled apps.
MicroG core apps: GmsCore, GsfProxy, FakeStore.
NLP backends for MicroG : DejaVuNLPBackend (default), MozillaNLPBackend, AppleNLPBackend, RadioCellsNLPBackend, Nominatim Geocoder.
App stores : FDroid (with F-Droid Privileged Extension) and Aurora Store.
Browser: our own fork of Firefox (with Qwant as default search engine, many other ones added, telemetry disabled, parts of telemetry code removed) instead of Lineage’s default browser Jelly.
SMS: QKSMS instead of Lineage's default SMS app.
Email: p≡p (Pretty Easy Privacy).
Camera: our own fork of Open Camera, with a few tweaks.
Maps/navigation: Magic Earth GPS & Navigation (the only one free but not open source).
Keyboard: OpenBoard instead of AOSP keyboard.
PDF: Pdf Viewer Plus.
Personnal notes: Carnet.
{Ad/Malware/Data leak}-blocker: iodé.
News: to keep users informed about our developments, as well as a FAQ.
Meteo: Geometric Weather.
Pre-included FDroid repository:
The apps that we tweak or develop (microG services, the browser based on Firefox, the News app, Open Camera ...) are available through a repository that we included in FDroid (check the "Apps for iodéOS" category). For this purpose and to avoid name conflicts of some apps, we also had to make a few changes in FDroid.
Useful options from other custom ROMs:
Smart charging (disables charging when a given level is reached, to protect battery health).
Fingerprint vibration toggle.
Swipe down to clear all in recent apps (Android 10 only).

04/04/2023 (build 20230401) for Note 10 (d1) and Note 10+ (d2s):
Blocker: improved use of blocking lists (sub-domains blocking)
FDroid: fixes an issue on apps update
LineageOS synchronized with March security patch included
All apps updated
07/02/2023 (build 20230131) for Note 10 (d1) and Note 10+ (d2s):
Blocker:
Improved blocking settings. You can now choose 'Standard' blocking (ads, trackers, malwares, etc) or 'Reinforced' blocking (same objective but more extensive), and then select additional categories.
The 'Porn' category has been extended to a wider 'Sensitive content' one, that also includes fake news, gambling, drugs, piracy, torrent..., with mainly child protection in mind.
The 'Extreme' category has been removed, as it is now part of the reinforced blocking.
Improved blocking lists. We merge several acknowledged and up-to-date sources, and have diversified our sources to produce more complete lists. The standard list has however been reduced a bit, to avoid as much as possible interference with apps expected behavior.
Added a new network location provider: Local NLP Backend. It is an improved version of the DéjàVu NLP backend which was already available in iodéOS. Like DéjàVu, it builds a local database connecting localizations learned from other NLP backends and apps using GPS, and mobile antennas/Wifi; but also has an active mode (not preselected) that can trigger GPS requests. To configure it: Settings -> System -> microG -> Location modules

Why is there no N9750 (d2q)? Which god can develop a d2q ROM? d2q heart pain.
And the d2x? Note 10+5g model?
Do you root this like lineage? By flashing a patched boot image?

Just flashed the ROM and rooted, had a hard time with twrp bootlooping after flashing. Its working phenomenal with Lineage Recovery. Thanks Dev, this ROM is awesome.
Great idea and work. Thanks for making this rom. I'll test asap.
Sorry if this has already been asked but from what I can see with all roms if you flash them you lose 5g and the ability to use WiFi calling and calling over 4g/volte? This is because of Samsung baking it into their framework?
+++ New Update : 10/09/2021 +++
Available as OTA (see OP)
During the "patching system image unconditionally..." I keep getting "E:Error in /sideload/package.zip (status 1) in recovery output when I use Lineage recovery 18.1 (most recent) or the IODE recovery to perform the adb sideload command. Most recently after a clean install of the latest samsung firmware for the note 10+.
I checked zip file(s) integrity using 7 zip. It reports no errors. I also used both the iode 2.1 from 0811 and 0905 earlier with the iode 0905 recovery.
Any suggestions?

Still no D2X version???
am on the way to get a 10+ and will try this OS. Looks good!
After reading the installing instructions tho I am a bit unsure whether it is done in windows or linux. I've only worked in windows and with twrp so far...
Can anyone bring some clarity?
Besides, i am wondering few things:
- do both sims work?
- does the phone recognize full 512GB microSD? Or god forbide, 1TB?
If we already have lineageOS running, can we just boot into lineage recovery and sideload IODE'. Or does anyone mind providing some instructions on how to do this?
Thanks for any help. I'm learning all this and it takes me awhile to figure it all out.
Hello,
New here and fairly new to the whole rooting/booting/ROM thing. Although I have loaded cyanogen on a phone years ago. Some tech/coding experience.
I would like to use Iode on a Note 10. NOT Note 10+, just Note 10
Earlier in the thread I see d1, d2q and d2x
Which specifically do each of these apply to? I am thinking that
d1 = Note 10 but with Exynos chipset
d2q = Note 10+
d2x = Note 10+ 5G
Do I have these right?
What is the codename of the snapdragon Note 10 (N970U) ?
I would like to use Iode on the snapdragon Note 10. Is this possible?
Do I have to have the Exynos chipset - and if so, will that chipset give me pain when using with US GSM cell network?
Thank you!!! Much appreciated!

Note that more than three users have said that 34.0.1 (even May 10, 2023's binary update of 34.0.1) did not work correctly for them. I recommend sticking with 33.0.3 (just below these quotes)
Someone reported it to Google (added a comment about 34.0.1 to the existing 34.0.0 report).

VERY IMPORTANT - On the Pixel 7/Pro, we use Magisk to patch init_boot.img, NOT boot.img AND we flash the patched init_boot to the init_boot partition - do not flash it to the boot partition.Thanks to @edcsxz, @Lughnasadh, and @AndyYan for news about that and confirming it.

Unlocking or locking the bootloader will wipe the device every single time, so be sure to have your data backed up before doing so, or better yet, just unlock it as soon as you get the device.

Keep in mind that unlocking the bootloader or rooting might affect your phone's capability to use banking apps such as Google Pay, your local bank's app, or even the ability to install some apps like NetFlix. See Post #2 - Unlocking Bootloader / Rooting / Updating | SafetyNet | ADB/Fastboot & Windows USB Drivers.

If you're going to re-lock the bootloader, make sure the ROM you have on your phone is completely stock (by flashing the latest official firmware) BEFORE re-locking it.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
There are no permanent negative consequences if you unlock or re-lock the bootloader other than it will wipe your phone, and while your bootloader is unlocked you get a brief screen when you boot the phone telling you (and anyone who sees your phone at the time) that it's unlocked. You will also continue to receive updates (if you've merely unlocked the bootloader, you can take updates as normal) unlike Samsung, Sony, et cetera, which have permanent major consequences with reduced functionality even if you un-root and re-lock your bootloader. If you're actually rooted (not just bootloader unlocked), you'll have to perform extra steps to manually update each month, and to keep root/re-root.

Unlocking Bootloader / Rooting / Updating | SafetyNet | ADB/Fastboot & Windows USB Drivers
Unlocking Bootloader / Rooting / Updating:How to Root the first time / aka How to unlock the Bootloader:
Unlocking the bootloader will factory reset your device. There is no way around this. I highly suggest never re-locking your bootloader once you unlock it. If you do ever re-lock the bootloader, only do so after restoring the phone to 100% stock by using the latest Pixel 7 Pro Factory Image or Official Google Android Flash Tool.
Verizon variants:
Will never be able to have their bootloader unlocked. It's like winning the lottery, and just as rare and relatively random. There is nothing that anyone on XDA can do to help you unlock your Verizon variant.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
T-Mobile and AT&T variants:
Can be unlocked once you pay the phone off, then you contact the carrier and arrange to Carrier unlock the phone. Once the phone is Carrier unlocked, then you can unlock the bootloader with the usual caveats (will wipe the device and there's no way around it).
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The direct-from-Google (or other retailers who aren't U.S. Carriers), the factory Carrier Unlocked Pixels:
Can be bootloader unlocked at any time. I'd try it first before putting a SIM card in the phone. If OEM unlocking is grayed out, try connecting to Wi-Fi, and reboot if necessary. If it's still grayed out, try with your SIM card, and reboot again. Historically on Pixels, most of the time you can toggle OEM unlocking immediately, but occasionally some users have found it took a little while after being either connected to Wi-Fi or having your SIM card installed in it, and then eventually (hours? day? days?) you can toggle OEM unlocking.

The rest of the world's carriers:
No idea. Feel free to ask in the thread and hopefully, someone with specific knowledge will answer.

Other than trying the things I mentioned above, there is nothing else that anyone on XDA can do to help get OEM unlocking to be ungrayed.
Unlocking Bootloader (required in order to root)
The one-time first steps are:
Android Settings
About phone
Click on Build number repeatedly, about seven times
Go back to the main Android Settings
System
Developer options
Toggle OEM unlocking on. See @Namelesswonder's tip below (this won't help with variants that are supposed to be bootloader locked):
Namelesswonder said:
Also a little tip for anyone trying to enable OEM unlocking on a device and it is grayed out, you can force the phone to check for eligibility by connecting to the internet in whatever way, going to the dialer, and dialing *#*#2432546#*#* (CHECKIN).
You should receive a notification from Google Play services with "checkin succeeded" and OEM unlocking should be available immediately if the device is eligible.
Google account not needed, SIM not needed, no other setup required. Works on completely-skipped-setup-wizard. Just need to make sure to connect to the internet and select the connection as metered to avoid any updates.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Toggle USB debugging on.
[Optional] I highly suggest you also disable Automatic system updates. Note that in a situation such as the Android 12 serious bootloader security issue, this setting will not keep Google from forcing an update to come through anyway.
How to actually root follows the same steps below as how to update each month.
Download the latest ADB/Fastboot (SDK Platform Tools) and Windows USB Drivers.
Unzip the Platform Tools and Drivers.
NOTE: If you have USB drivers for other Android devices installed, like Samsung, they can alternately sometimes work and not work with Google Pixels. I recommend uninstalling those drivers, or at least updating that driver to Google's driver as instructed below (the Device Manager entry may be different with other OEMs).
The Windows USB Drivers may have to be installed twice:
The first time while your phone is running and unlocked as normal.
In Windows, right-click on the Start Button and choose Device Manager.
Plug your phone into the computer and look for the new hardware entry in Device Manager. Near the top of Device Manager should be Android Device. Click the drop-down arrow to the left of it.
Below Android Device, it should now show Android Composite ADB Interface
Right-click the Android Composite ADB Interface and choose Update driver
Choose Browse my computer for drivers
Click Browse and navigate to where you unzipped the Windows USB drivers to.
Follow the prompts to install the driver.
Keep Device Manager itself open - you'll need it again in a minute, but you can close any other Device Manager windows after you have installed the driver.
Open a Command Prompt and navigate to the platform-tools folder.
Run command:
Code:
adb devices
On your Android device, you'll get an ADB prompt. Check the box to always give ADB permission and click OK.
Confirm that the command results in a list of Android devices. When doing these producedures, you should only have the one device you want to work on connected, to keep things simple.
The second time to install the driver is while the phone is in Bootloader (fastboot mode), notFastbootD (fastbootd) mode. I know it's confusing.
Run command:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
Repeat the instructions above starting with "Right-click the Android Composite ADB Interface".
This second time installing the drivers while in Bootloader (fastboot mode), it will show up as "Android Bootloader Interface". Thanks @simplepinoi177 for the suggestion to add this detail.
Run command:
Code:
fastboot flashing unlock
On the phone, press either the up or down volume button once until you see Unlock the bootloader |>| beside the power button.
Press the power button. The phone will go black for a second and then show near the bottom Device state: unlocked.
After these first-time steps to unlock the bootloader, if you want to root, continue below at the step:
Download the latest Pixel 7 Pro Factory Image (at the bottom of the "Cheetah" section).
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
How to update each month (and also how to root) [requires an unlocked bootloader for updating via this factory image method]
These three instructions only apply if you're already rooted and updating from one firmware version to another:
Made sure all Magisk Modules have been updated.
Disable all Magisk Modules.
UNhide Magisk!
If you are going to use the Official Google Android Flash Tool, then skip the steps I indicate with FAB(Flash-All.Bat).
If using the Android Flash Tool to update/dirty flash, you should have the following items notselected:
Deselect Wipe
Deselect Force Flash all partitions (which will also wipe)
Deselect re-lock bootloader
Always use the latest ADB/Fastboot (SDK Platform Tools) and Windows USB Drivers.
Unzip the Platform Tools.
Download the latest Pixel 7 Pro Factory Image (at the bottom of the "Cheetah" section).
Unzip the factory image to the same platform-tools folder, i.e. so that flash-all.bat and all other files are in the same folder as ADB and Fastboot from the platform-tools.
* FAB VERY important - Edit the flash-all.bat (on Windows) or flash-all.sh (on Linux) and remove the -w from the fastboot update image-cheetah-etcetera.zip line. This will keep the script from wiping your phone when you run it.
Extract only the init_boot.img file from the image-cheetah-etcetera.zip to the same platform-tools folder.
Copy the init_boot.img from the PC to the phone's internal storage.
On the phone: Apply Magisk Stable to the new stock init_boot.img. NOTE: It is always possible that an Android Update (Monthly, QPR [Quarterly Platform Release], new major Android versions, and Beta versions) might need a new version of Magisk Stable, Beta, or Canary from GitHub to work correctly. XDA forum for Magisk is here.
Launch the Magisk app.
Beside "Magisk", click "Install".
Click "Select and Patch a File", and choose the init_boot.img that you just copied to the phone's storage.
Copy the Magisk'd init_boot.img (filename similar to magisk_patched-25200_1a2B3c.img)back over to the computer.
* FAB Run commands:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
flash-all.bat (on Windows)
or
flash-all.sh (on Linux)
(Note: At least two Apple Macintosh users had trouble using the flash-all.sh - at least one of those users, everything went smooth once they used a Windows PC for this part of the process)
IMPORTANT - The flash-all will take several minutes and reboot on its own several times including to a mode called "FastbootD", and finally reboot into full Android when it's done. Do not interrupt this process. On the FastbootD screen on the phone, do not use any of the manual selection options - let the flash-all script do it's work. Do not unplug your phone until it has fully booted into Android. Thanks to @PurppleMonkey and @xgerryx for suggesting a warning about this. Thanks to @simplepinoi177 for suggesting the "FastbootD" clarification.
On the phone:
Wait for the phone to boot normally.
OPTIONAL: If you want to flash both slots, after this first time, then after do the following:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot --set-active=other
flash-all.bat
So you're doing the flash-all.bat a second time on the second slot.
On the computer:
Open a Command Prompt and navigate to the platform-tools folder.
Run command:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
After phone has rebooted into Bootloader (Fastboot) mode, run command:
Code:
fastboot flash init_boot magisk_patched-25200_1a2B3c.img
fastboot reboot
Unlock the phone.
Confirm that the phone boots completely normally.
Cautiously re-enable Magisk Modules.
Reboot.
Confirm everything worked fine.
If the phone won't boot correctly after having enabled Magisk Modules, see either of the two solutions below:
Jon8RFC said:
For the future, you don't need to go into safe mode unless that's your preference. I forgot what all it resets, but it's many settings and it's bothersome. I'd rather just reinstall my modules and not have to figure out those Android settings/changes which I come across days or weeks later when I infrequently do something. Have your phone reboot and run this:
Code:
adb wait-for-device shell magisk --remove-modules
I like to just do this first:
Code:
adb devices
So the server is running, then I have the long one pasted and ready to go once the phone turns off.

Find problem apps, Magisk, and LSposed Modules by (three different methods) section in my next post. After following that link, you may have to scroll up a little bit and the section title will be highlighted.
SafetyNet:Use whichever of these is newer than the other:
@Displax Universal SafetyNet Fix Mod on XDA.
Official Universal SafetyNet Fix released by @kdrag0n available at XDA.
Launch the Magisk app.
Go to Magisk's Settings (Gear in top right).
Click Hide the Magisk app.
When you hide it, you'll have the optional opportunity to change the Magisk app's name to whatever you wish. It doesn't have to be complex to fool apps that check for Magisk.
Important: When you have the Magisk app hidden or renamed, you can accidentally install a new copy of Magisk. This situation won't work at all - neither copy of Magisk will work with two installed. This is one reason why I don't completely hide Magisk, so I can tell it's installed because I have it renamed as something easily recognizable.
Back to the Magisk app's Settings...
Click Systemless hosts. This adds a Magisk Module to Magisk, which you can verify in a later step.
Toggle Zygisk on.
Toggle Enforce DenyList on.
Click Configure DenyList.
Add every app that you want to explicitly deny root and the existence of root.
You can click the 3-dot menu and choose the options to display system and/or OS apps, if necessary.
Note that for many apps, it is not enough to click the single checkmark to the right of the app name in this list. For many but not all apps, you should click on the app name and you'll see it expand to two or more entries, each with its own toggles. In this expanded state, you can now check the single top checkbox beside the main app name and it'll toggle all individual sub-entries.
Some apps add new entries to this list from time to time, so if you find that an app used to work for you when rooted and doesn't now, check this list again and look for the entries that aren't fully checked. There will be an incomplete horizontal line above the apps that don't have all of their sub-entries toggled.
You can use the Search button at the top of this list to find specific apps quickly.
The most common apps you should definitely fully check in this list are:
IMPORTANT - There are some things, such as Google Play Services which it's fine to add to the DenyList, but it's perfectly normal when used in combination with the Universal SafetyNet Fix (USNF) that it is back to being unchecked the next time you visit the DenyList. Since USNF takes care of Google Play Services, you don't even have to add it to the DenyList in the first place.
Google Play Store
Google Services Framework
Google Play Protect Service
Wallet
GPay
Any banking apps.
Any streaming apps that use DRM.
Any 2FA apps, especially those for work.
Some of those Google apps might not need denying, but it doesn't hurt to deny them.
Any time you toggle more entries in this list, it may be necessary to reboot the phone for it to take effect.
From the main screen in the Magisk app, go to Modules at the bottom.
Confirm that the Systemless hosts Magisk Module is added to this list, and enabled.
Install the appropriate Magisk Module: Universal SafetyNet Fix referenced above these numbered instructions.
Reboot.
Install from the Play Store:
YASNAC - SafetyNet Checker
Launch it.
Click Run SafetyNet Attestation.
It should say:
Basic integrity: Pass
CTS profile match: Pass
Evaluation type: BASIC
Play Integrity API Checker
Launch it.
Click Check.
It should have the following with a green checkmark:
MEETS_DEVICE_INTEGRITY
MEETS_BASIC_INTEGRITY
It's normal for MEETS_STRONG_INTEGRITY to have a red X.
You don't have to keep these installed, although I keep them handy.
Sometimes, clearing app cache and/or data for apps like the Google Play Store, GPay, Wallet and others (and then rebooting) after these steps may help pass SafetyNet as well.
See @V0latyle's explanation (and further linked post) for why we can't achieve STRONG_INTEGRITY with an unlocked bootloader.
See @V0latyle's [DISCUSSION] Play Integrity API regarding why SafetyNet, per se, is actually defunct and replaced with Play Integrity - and New Official Universal SafetyNet Fix released by @kdrag0n v2.4.0 referenced in the steps above takes care of the latter.

Optional steps when updating - flashing custom kernels:
Download the custom kernel of choice on the phone.
Be sure to read the particular installation instructions in the kernel threads' OP - any instructions in their OPs takes priority over anything I say here, which is generalized.For now even the AK3 Zip versions of custom kernels requires Verity and Verification to be disabled.
How to determine if you already have Verity and Verification disabled - see section in Post #3 - Other, most important resources
The two schools of thought on disabling Verity and Verification:
My post here. If you want to discuss it any, please do so in my thread, or at least not in that custom kernel thread, so as to keep the thread on-topic.
Extract the vbmeta.img file from the inner Zip of the factory image zip and put it in the same folder with the latest extracted platform-tools.
Hook the phone up to your computer and run the following commands:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
[wait for the phone to reboot to bootloader (fastboot mode)]
Code:
fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img --disable-verity
fastboot reboot
Unlock the phone once it's booted up.
Make sure the Kernel Flasher app is up to date. XDA thread for the Kernel Flasher app is here.
Launch Kernel Flasher.
Select the slot that's mounted.
Choose Flash AK3 Zip.
Select the custom kernel zip just downloaded.
When it's done flashing, head to Android Settings and perform a Factory Reset, as is currently needed for Despair kernel.
If you failed to disable Verity and Verification ahead of time, if you have to, just force the phone off using these instructions: Turn your Pixel phone on & off, then press the Volume Down and Power buttons for a couple of seconds to get into the bootloader (fastboot mode). You'll still have to factory reset after disabling Verity in combination with this kernel, for now.
Whenever you use the flash-all to flash your phone, as long as you want to continue to disable Verity and Verification, you'll have to further modify the flash-all script as such:
Code:
fastboot update image-cheetah-buildnumber.zip --disable-verity --disable-verification

You'll need this if you're going to unlock the bootloader on your Pixel 7 Pro: SDK Platform Tools (download links for Windows, Mac, and Linux). Note that you can find links to download the tools elsewhere, but I wouldn't trust them - you never know if they've been modified. Even if the person providing the link didn't do anything intentionally, the tools could be modified without them being aware. Why take a chance of putting your phone security further at risk?
You can alternately use the tools from the SDK Manager, but most of us will want to stick to the basic tools-only without the complications of the full development manager.

How to unroot
One of these two options:
Official Google Android Flash Tool (OEM Unlocking needs to be toggled on - you do not have to manually unlock the bootloader - their site will do that on its own).
Select the options to:
Wipe
Force flash all partitions
Re-lock bootloader
Flash the completely stock init_boot.img from the same firmware version that you're on:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash init_boot init_boot.img
TWRP [not made for the Pixel 7 (or 6) Pro yet - will update when or if ever it has - don't hold your breath]
I would guess that this should be the appropriate URL for official TWRP custom recovery for the Pixel 7 Pro, but who knows when/if that will actually be made available, and it may become available unofficially in these forum sections before being made official. I'll adjust this URL as needed. https://twrp.me/google/googlepixel7pro.html.

Factory Images (requires an unlocked bootloader)
It's also handy to have to the full official firmware available, whether it's to recover from accidents or for actual development. Note the official link to the general Factory Images for Nexus and Pixel Devices page. The following link goes directly to the Pixel 7 Pro (Cheetah) section: Pixel 7 Pro Factory Images. I prefer to actually bookmark a link to the device listed immediately below the device I want the firmware for, because Google dumbly (in my opinion) puts the latest firmware at the bottom of the list for each particular device, and that ends up making you scroll a lot after a year or two of monthly updates.

Check warranty status - *may* reveal if a phone is refurbished, only if the phone was refurbished through Google - thanks to @Alekos for making me aware of the site.
Official Google Pixel Update and Software Repair (reported as of January 23, 2022 to still not be updated for the Pixel 6/Pro - no idea if it has yet now, or if it will be for the 7/Pro)
Official Google Pixel Install fingerprint calibration software (also available at the bottom of the Update and Software Repair page above) - I believe this is only helpful if you've replaced the screen - if it's anything like the Pixel 6 Pro: if you have the screen replaced, then you *must* have the fingerprint reader replaced as well.
Find problem apps, Magisk, and LSposed Modules by (three different methods):
Google's Help Page for Find problem apps by rebooting to safe mode - this can be a lifesaver and keep you from having to do a restore to 100% complete stock or even from having to do a factory reset. This will deactivate all Magisk modules, and they'll remain deactivated even after you boot normally after briefly booting to safe mode. You can re-enable the Magisk modules as you wish to try to narrow down the problem if it was caused by a Magisk module. This can even get things working again after a Magisk Module wasn't finished installing and potentially causing a bootloop.
You can also follow @Jon8RFC's advice:

Worked for me yesterday when I accidentally tried some old version of a Magisk Module. You have to reinstall your Magisk Modules, but if you're using a third-party widget, it won't disable them like Safe mode does.

How to determine if you already have Verity and Verification disabled (required for custom kernels for now)

I keep seeing this asked, so I added a Magisk module for it to the linked Github release. With the module installed, you can just run:
Code:
su
avbctl get-verity
avbctl get-verification
I spent way more time debugging that I downloaded Github's HTML of the update-binary script rather than the raw file than I care to admit. Off to bed.

Alternative two more manual ways of checking:
Freak07 said:
Since you´re probably already rooted anyway if you plan to flash this kernel, simply reboot your device. After you enter the device immediately take a kernel log with for example EXKM or any other app that allows to do that, terminal, etc.
Look for that line
[ 1.273480] init: [libfs_avb]AVB HASHTREE disabled on: /vendor_dlkm
If you see this line, verity/verification should be disabled.

I've seen several cases where having the ability to check would have been handy, so I pushed an avbctl binary built against the latest aosp sources here.
The simplest way to use it would be the following:

adb shell
su
cd /data/local/tmp

Build ID definitions
Build ID definitions: - thanks to @Namelesswonder for linking, quoting, and explanation:
Namelesswonder said:
https://source.android.com/docs/setup/about/build-numbers#build-ids-defined
First character is the version code of the release of Android, in this case Tiramisu (T) which is Android 13.
The second character is the branch of device platform that the build is from.
D: Device specific branch, what the device launches with until the next branch merge.
P: Primary branch, designates release branch for a successive version of Android for the device.
Q: Quarterly platform release, the feature drops that happen every quarter.
The third and fourth characters further define the subbranch. It's only well defined for QPRs, with the number defining which QPR the build is from. The number was "2" for the case of Android 12L.
The date roughly corresponds to when it was branched, but is mainly used to distinguish what the security patch level for release builds. Developers builds are closer to the true time it was branched.
The next three digits relate to versions based on that dated branch, and differ when a telecom needs a larger change, for example in the radio firmware or other larger change.
The last two characters are hotfixes, which usually include small changes for telecoms that need something like their APN changed after the date branch.

Codenames, Tags, and Build Numbers | Android Open Source Project
source.android.com
Build ID definitionsIn Android 8.0.0 (Oreo) and higher, individual builds are identified with the build ID format PVBB.YYMMDD.bbb[.Cn], where:
P represents the first letter of the codename of the platform release, for example, O is Oreo.
V represents a supported vertical. By convention, P represents the primary platform branch.
BB is an alphanumeric code that allows Google to identify the exact code branch the build was made from.
YYMMDD identifies the date when the release is branched from or synced with the development branch. It's not always the exact date at which a build was made as it's common for minor variations added to an existing build to re-use the same date code as the existing build.
bbb identifies individual versions related to the same date code, sequentially starting with 001.
Cn is an optional, alphanumeric that identifies a hotfix on top of an existing PVBB.YYMMDD.bbb build, starting from A1.
Older Android releases use a different, shorter build ID code (for example, FRF85B) where:
The first letter is the codename of the release family, for example, F is Froyo.
The second letter is a branch code that allows Google to identify the exact code branch the build was made from. By convention, R is the primary release branch.
The third letter and following two numbers are a date code. The letter counts quarters (A is Q1 2009, F is Q2 2010, and so on). The two numbers count days within the quarter (F85 is June 24, 2010). The date code isn't always the exact date at which a build was made as it's common for minor variations added to an existing build to re-use the same date code as the existing build.
The last letter identifies individual versions related to the same date code, sequentially starting with A (which is implicit and usually omitted for brevity).

Post #7 Pro
My personal advice for how to get your device back up and running as you had it before a factory reset:
I use Nova Launcher Prime, so I do backups anytime I change my home screen or app drawer/tabs setup, so widgets and app icons and other Nova-specific configurations are easier to restore.
Go to Android Settings and use Settings' search box for Backup. Make sure that your Google account is set up to backup your apps (and app data for the apps that developers have configured to use Google's Backup API). Make sure things are backed up. Note, this doesn't backup the apps themselves, only the list of apps, so only applies to apps installed from the Play Store. As I said in parentheses, developers have to choose to integrate Google's Backup API into their app, and those apps only will get their app data backed up into Google's cloud.
If you're rooted also, then you could use something like Swift Backup to backup to the cloud. I do so, although I still restore as much as possible through Google's backup, and I only restore through Swift on a case-by-case basis, as needed when I discover an app that's tough to set back up doesn't have it's data restored by Google.
If you've used Google Photos to backup your photos to Google's cloud, then hit the button in Google Photos to free up space. This will automatically and only delete your local copies of photos and videos that it's already backed up.
Once that ^ is done, look at your internal storage with your favorite File Manger and see if there's anything left that you want to back up manually, since a factory reset will wipe everything. Copy them to your computer or a flash drive.
When you're just starting the out of the box setup after the reset, when it asks you if you want to use a cable to restore things from an old phone, choose No, and that will lead you to Google's cloud backup where you can choose to restore everything, or you can select what you want to restore.
I think you can figure out the rest.

Android Security Bulletin—January 2023bookmark_border
Published January 3, 2022
The Android Security Bulletin contains details of security vulnerabilities affecting Android devices. Security patch levels of 2023-01-05 or later address all of these issues. To learn how to check a device's security patch level, see Check and update your Android version.
Android partners are notified of all issues at least a month before publication. Source code patches for these issues will be released to the Android Open Source Project (AOSP) repository in the next 48 hours. We will revise this bulletin with the AOSP links when they are available.
The most severe of these issues is a high security vulnerability in the Framework component that could lead to local escalation of privilege with no additional execution privileges needed. The severity assessment is based on the effect that exploiting the vulnerability would possibly have on an affected device, assuming the platform and service mitigations are turned off for development purposes or if successfully bypassed.
Refer to the Android and Google Play Protect mitigations section for details on the Android security platform protections and Google Play Protect, which improve the security of the Android platform.
Note: Information on the latest over-the-air update (OTA) and firmware images for Google devices is available in the January 2023 Pixel Update Bulletin.
Android and Google service mitigationsThis is a summary of the mitigations provided by the Android security platform and service protections such as Google Play Protect. These capabilities reduce the likelihood that security vulnerabilities could be successfully exploited on Android.
Exploitation for many issues on Android is made more difficult by enhancements in newer versions of the Android platform. We encourage all users to update to the latest version of Android where possible.
The Android security team actively monitors for abuse through Google Play Protect and warns users about Potentially Harmful Applications. Google Play Protect is enabled by default on devices with Google Mobile Services, and is especially important for users who install apps from outside of Google Play.
2023-01-01 security patch level vulnerability detailsIn the sections below, we provide details for each of the security vulnerabilities that apply to the 2023-01-01 patch level. Vulnerabilities are grouped under the component they affect.

Common questions and answersThis section answers common questions that may occur after reading this bulletin.
1. How do I determine if my device is updated to address these issues?
To learn how to check a device's security patch level, see Check and update your Android version.
Security patch levels of 2023-01-01 or later address all issues associated with the 2023-01-01 security patch level.
Security patch levels of 2023-01-05 or later address all issues associated with the 2023-01-05 security patch level and all previous patch levels.
Device manufacturers that include these updates should set the patch string level to:
[ro.build.version.security_patch]:[2023-01-01]
[ro.build.version.security_patch]:[2023-01-05]
For some devices on Android 10 or later, the Google Play system update will have a date string that matches the 2023-01-01 security patch level. Please see this article for more details on how to install security updates.
2. Why does this bulletin have two security patch levels?
This bulletin has two security patch levels so that Android partners have the flexibility to fix a subset of vulnerabilities that are similar across all Android devices more quickly. Android partners are encouraged to fix all issues in this bulletin and use the latest security patch level.
Devices that use the 2023-01-01 security patch level must include all issues associated with that security patch level, as well as fixes for all issues reported in previous security bulletins.
Devices that use the security patch level of 2023-01-05 or newer must include all applicable patches in this (and previous) security bulletins.
Partners are encouraged to bundle the fixes for all issues they are addressing in a single update.
3. What do the entries in the Type column mean?
Entries in the Type column of the vulnerability details table reference the classification of the security vulnerability.
AbbreviationDefinitionRCERemote code executionEoPElevation of privilegeIDInformation disclosureDoSDenial of serviceN/AClassification not available
4. What do the entries in the References column mean?
Entries under the References column of the vulnerability details table may contain a prefix identifying the organization to which the reference value belongs.
PrefixReferenceA-Android bug IDQC-Qualcomm reference numberM-MediaTek reference numberN-NVIDIA reference numberB-Broadcom reference numberU-UNISOC reference number
5. What does an * next to the Android bug ID in the References column mean?
Issues that are not publicly available have an * next to the corresponding reference ID. The update for that issue is generally contained in the latest binary drivers for Pixel devices available from the Google Developer site.
6. Why are security vulnerabilities split between this bulletin and device / partner security bulletins, such as the Pixel bulletin?
Security vulnerabilities that are documented in this security bulletin are required to declare the latest security patch level on Android devices. Additional security vulnerabilities that are documented in the device / partner security bulletins are not required for declaring a security patch level. Android device and chipset manufacturers may also publish security vulnerability details specific to their products, such as Google, Huawei, LGE, Motorola, Nokia, or Samsung.

New software features have arrived to the Pixel familyAnnouncement
Your Pixel devices get a boost of helpfulness with Feature Drops *[1]. They’re automatic software updates that send new and upgraded features to your phone, earbuds, and watch, making them even better as time goes on. With the latest feature drop, your Pixel phone now has clearer incoming calls *[2], next-level audio with Pixel Buds Pro *[3], speaker labels on recordings *[4], a VPN by Google One for online protection *[5], and more. And it all happens over the air, so you get that new-device feeling without needing to get anything new.
The latest features will begin rolling out to Pixel devices starting on December 5, with rollout continuing over the next few weeks. Be sure to update to the latest Android version and update your Android apps, then look out for a notification from the Pixel Tips app to learn more about all of the ways your Pixel just got more helpful.
Hear voices clearly.
Pixel enhances the other caller’s voice and reduces their background noise to help you hear them when they’re in a noisy place *[2].
Surround yourself with sound (coming January 2023).
Feel like you’re at the center of the action in your favorite movies and shows. When paired with Pixel Buds Pro, your Pixel supports spatial audio with head tracking for immersive surround sound all around *[3].
Note taking just got easier.
Pixel helps you keep track of who said what in meetings and lectures with more than one participant. It transcribes recordings of multiple speakers by labeling each one and adding line breaks when speakers change *[4].
Extra protection when you’re online.
With VPN by Google One, Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro help protect your online activity no matter what app or web browser you use. With no added cost to you *[5].
Wallpaper that wows.
Bring your Pixel screen to life with the new Live Bloom wallpaper collection. Explore the latest set of custom designs featuring vibrant images that shift and sway when your phone moves *[6].
New cultural wallpapers.
Keep your Pixel screens culturally relevant with the latest Curated Culture wallpapers. This new installment, illustrated by Morgan Harper Nichols, celebrates the International Day of Persons with Disabilities. Morgan is an artist, poet, podcaster, and author whose work is inspired by real-life interactions and stories.
Find it. Fast.
Bring the power of Google Search to your Pixel to search your entire phone and the web, so you can quickly find what you’re looking for – a contact, app, screenshot, setting, and more. Now available for Pixel 4a and later.
Security and privacy, simplified.
Now Pixel makes it easier to protect your phone, accounts, and passwords by having all your security and privacy settings in one place. This includes new action cards that notify you of any safety risks and provide easy steps to enhance your privacy and security.
More ways to lift language barriers.
Live Translate can now translate texts in your messaging apps into more languages, including Arabic, Persian, Swedish, Vietnamese, and Danish *[7].
Understand how you sleep.
Pixel can help you understand what affects your sleep, like coughing, snoring, or how much you’re on your phone at bedtime *[8], now available for Pixel 6 & Pixel 6 Pro.
Get smarter about your sleep.
Gain a better understanding of your sleep quality with helpful insights from Sleep Profile on Pixel Watch *[9]. It looks beyond your nightly sleep patterns and tracks your habits and trends over a month-long period. You’ll get a sleep analysis based on 10 key metrics, be matched with one of six sleep animals representing distinct sleeper types, and receive education and personalized metric ranges so you can understand what to focus on to get better rest.

You upgraded to the Pixel 7 Pro ?
When will the factory images for the 7 Pro most likely be posted?

Editing this post. The Pixel 6 factory images were posted on the same day the phone was released (not when pre-orders started). So maybe Oct. 13? or around there.
Glad to see you in the Pixel 7 pro forums! @roirraW "edor" ehT

I believe the factory images for the Pixel 6 series were first posted 9 days after the phones were released.

EDIT: I was wrong. The Pixel 6 was released on Oct. 28, 2021 and the factory images were released the same day. Pre-orders for the Pixel 6 began on Oct. 19, if I remember correctly.

Yes, sir! The USB 3.2 Gen 2 pushed me over the edge, believe it or not. I like to copy hundreds of gigs of FLAC music to my devices all the time.

Thanks! Would you believe I only one other time upgraded to a next up higher model of any phone - the last time being from the Sprint Samsung Galaxy S2/Epic 4G to the Verizon S3, and both phones had already been out for long enough to be a great deal under contract back then.

I/O controllers are so necessary and not many people talk about that with phones. I hate how slow transfer speeds are with subpar hardware.
My next move in house is to convert everything to wifi 7. 6E is not a big enough jump from wifi 5. Also wired 10 gbE everywhere or higher.
I have a NAS video server for the house and there is nothing out there to do better than 2.5 gbE. I am waiting for better hardware to make my house 10 gbE.

Absolutely! Especially these phones without MicroSD card slots, it just makes it worse - not that MicroSD cards are the complete solution, either. Especially if you don't want to take your phone case off, take out the card, put it back in later...

I went 6E in the last couple of weeks only because all Synology routers including their newest don't work directly with Frontier Fiber's gigabit ONT - they've got a serious bug and I worked with Synology for a month without any progress. I became completely burned out on continuously experimenting with my networking. To Synology's credit, they bent over backward and then even connected me directly with their developers, but I just couldn't take it anymore.
At some point, I felt I should start getting paid to help them debug their product, and at another point, I just have to continue on with life and just use my network without plugging / unplugging / factory resetting, you name it, every day.
I went with two high-end gaming Asus routers (I don't game, though) and they have been the easiest to set up and have no issues at all.

The Asus GT-AXE16000 - which I got a great deal on but it's still super expensive, has 2x10Gb, 1x2.5Gb, and 4x1Gb ports, and you can use any one or two of them as WAN, and it automatically makes the remaining LAN. Great flexibility. My second (mesh) router is their GT-AXE11000 - which I don't even remember if it has 10Gb, but probably does have one, and it definitely has 1x2.5Gb. I used each router's 2.5Gb for the mesh connection, although you can do so with Wi-Fi too if you wish. We have a small house but the opposite side of the house from my computer room can stand to have a little help for the best internet speeds, although the GT-AXE16000 by itself did quite well and much better than Synology's models.
I'd love to see places that can SIM unlock the AT&T version so I can unlock the bootloader. Stuck doing the carrier version - hard to pass up $3 a month with a trade.

Understood on the gt-axe16000, it's great, but Wifi 7 combines all channels 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, and 6 GHz into a 320 MHz bandpass channel. With 6E, you can only get half that. It's almost there but I can wait another 2 years. Then my desktop, phones, and routers will all be converted.
