We kinda having a hard time this week. Read "A story of the Pixel 1 community" (last second paragraph) to learn more. Content for this week's post:
• Result: You guys want HentaiOS (unified: Popcorn)
• New ROMs: PixelExperience Android 11 (Pixel XL for now)
• ROMs Update: PixelDust 11
• New Kernel: Neutrino Kernel for Android 11
• A story of the Pixel 1 community

So, last week I created a poll, despite whether @electimon should build LineageOS 18.1 or HentaiOS Android 11. Well, you guys wanted the Pixel features packed ROM, HentaiOS. Also, @yaygya created two polls related to which ROM you guys wanted him to build. Here the first one & here the second poll. Results merged to this section. First poll: You guys also want hentaiOS. By the way, @electimon will build that, and @yaygya will build ProtonAOSP, this should be fair enough. Second poll: Well, it is another poll about which codename to choose for a unified device tree. so "Popcorn" win that. Anyway these are all the updates for these polls.

So PixelExperience is back with Android 11 for Google Pixel XL. Thanks to @PixelBoot for his “miraculous” job. So, still, you will need to repartition your device in order to flash it. Here is the file, so boot your phone to TWRP Recovery and connect it to your PC and run the file. The process should be straightforward, and you can flash PixelExperience now. Keep in mind it is for Google Pixel XL, marlin only. Here the link to download it.

Well, so PixelDust comes with many new updates in a week, as the developer @spezi77 wants to fix as many bugs as possible to give the user a better experience. For now, it is still not considered stable, but you can help testing it out and address those issues. Thanks to our amazing tester, PixelDust may reach stable stage soon after a few weeks or a month. Stay tuned for that. Link to download over here.

Also, a new kernel released, called Neutrino. Thanks to @spezi77. This kernel is made or Android 11 only, and we are not responsible for your device if you flash it on Android 10 ROMs. People reporting it is smooth on PixelDust, expect good results on other Android 11 ROMs too. Link for marlin and sailfish respectively.

So you may have know that group is private now. As a retarded Chinese people come to spam the group and our PMs. All started last Thursday, so he has created more than ten accounts in total till now to continue his action. We try to calm him down, but he went crazy. We try to help, but we couldn’t. Also, report these three channels, @Pixel1Chat1 report Fake Account > Harassment & @Pixel1Chat2 and @Pixel1ChatOfficial report Violence > select one message and report it.

Too many updates for our Pixel 1 community and it the third week, means we get more rom updates and features. Ok, anyway the main point of the week, PixelExperience is back for our Pixel, Pixel XL only for now to be exact, Pixel will be added soon, stay tuned. I hope you guys have a nice day and happy flashing.

There is a new CVE called 2020-11292 that affects the modem of many outdated Snapdragon CPU's including MSM8996 (Snapdragon 821).

Writing this message to alert any security researchers and we could use your help if you know how to utilize this, so we could unlock bootloader of Verizon Pixel.

If you have any information or know anyone that could help us, please join this group

Finally, less update this week so that you don't need to read for so long, and I don't need to write too much. Content for this week's post:
• Pixel Feature Drop - March 2021
• PixelDust 11 & Neutrino Kernel Update
• Verizon Pixel Bootloader News Update (Chipset CVE)

As promised, Pixel Feature Drop news arrived. We only listed features that are available to OG Pixel/Pixel XL in the channel. You can check the source link down below to learn more. You may wonder how does Google Recorder reach the list when Google said it supports Pixel 2 & above. Well, flash custom ROMs and you get to download it from Play Store, and it works without issue. For Gboard Smart Compose, exclusive to US users only, At least people around the world get the update for the Google Recorder (if you use and like the update). Anyway, stay tuned for the next Pixel Feature Drop.

Some good news. PixelDust 11 by @spezi77 can be flashed without repartition. It is possible thanks to Nolen's device tree. Also, there will be fewer issues than the last previous build. Download the build over here. Besides that, the dev releases a new update for Neutrino Kernel too. The only change is included low memory fix (LMF). Download it over here.

CVE, short for Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures, is a list of publicly disclosed computer security flaws (taken from Google Search). So MSM8996 (Snapdragon 821), which is our device chipset, is on the list. We hope to find some security researchers and help us utilize it to unlock Verizon Pixel bootloader. Please share this post out, we hope that everyone gets to unlock their Pixel bootloader one day.

This is all the updates for this week.

So this is a last minute update, hence not a really good writing for this week (the noscript is like meh). Anyway, content for this week's post:
• Android 11: PixelExperience Official 11 is out!
• Android 11: ArrowOS 11 is out too!
• Poll: Merge PixelExperience post into one or not?

Just a few hours ago, PixelExperience Official was released for Pixel & Pixel XL by @PixelBoot. As usual, all stock ROM stuff is there, only changes, Android 11, Neutrino Kernel and some bug fixes likely. Here the respective download link for the standard version & Plus edition. By the way, if you want to explore more, check the next paragraph.

So do you want to explore more? Try ArrowOS 11 by @blckbear99, also freshly release a few hours ago. There are more customisations in this ROM. It also comes with vanilla and Gapps option. It comes with Neutrino Kernel too. Currently, the developer has released an unofficial build for both Pixel & Pixel XL, but next month, the official build should be coming soon, so stay tuned. For people who are interested, download it over here (vanilla only for now).

So some of you guys suggest me to merge the PixelExperience post into one. Hmm… I kinda have the idea of merging it actually, but I think it looks weird though. I thought of making it like this:
▪️ Standard version: ️Sailfish [?GB] | ️Marlin [?GB]
▪️ Plus version: ️Sailfish [?GB] | ️Marlin [?GB]

Anyway, vote in the poll down below which one do you like more.

Anyway, there is no best ROM, so it your own choice to choose which ROMs to use. Share this channel to people who you know who own a Pixel or Pixel XL for instant updates when new stuff comes out.
Merge PixelExperience post into one or not?
