        @agates damnit its getting personal. So lets try this:

        • Can you flash TWRP recovery to boot
        • Then, run fastboot boot halium-boot_walleye.img and let it get stuck for lets say 5mins
        • Then, Long-press power to reboot into recovery
        • finally, when TWRP has booted can you enter adb shell and then try to see if that file exists: /sys/fs/pstore/console_ramoops ?

        Thanks!

          @flohack Okay so to be clear, I:

          1. Flashed TWRP to the boot partition:
            fastboot flash boot twrp-3.3.0-0-walleye.img
          2. Booted into the halium boot image directly:
            fastboot boot halium-boot_walleye.img
          3. Waited 10 minutes
          4. Force-rebooted the device, it booted into TWRP
          5. Opened adb shell checking for /sys/fs/pstore/console_ramoops.

          Unfortunately that file isn't there... the pstore directory is empty.

          Here are the images used with sha256sum:
          twrp-3.3.0-0-walleye.img: e7edcfb553b5c9b7ed717b3439c465075ee17b0eb938bafdce511bbea1cc3cd6

            @agates Alright can you try the same with wiping data partition first? I have a suspicion... Wipe data, and then try telnet 192.168.2.15 again one time, and if this does not come up, try to boot into that recovery again and see for a pstore... πŸ™‚

              @flohack OK, I flashed TWRP to the boot partition, booted into TWRP, wiped the data partition, then booted into halium-boot_walleye.img directly from fastboot.

              Same result, can't telnet, no console_ramoops file.

              Wondering if I should start from android again for a clean slate?

                @agates No I dont think Android is the issue. The symptom seems that the kernel does not boot at all. Thats weird somehow. I will continue digging... ^^

                  I repeated @agates's path and got the same result:
                  I flashed the latest android 9 using the google site.
                  Installed ubports installer on ubuntu computer.
                  Downloaded the config walleye.yml for my google pixel 2 and ran the installer with it. Installation was successful. Then flashed halium-boot_walleye.img via fastboot.
                  The phone won't boot and hangs on the google logo.
                  The /sys/fs/pstore folder is empty.

                      @flohack Still no luck here, no console_ramoops found, and same behavior with stuck at google logo.

                      Here's the last_kmsg if it helps.

                      EDIT: I attempted with both the TWRP+boot method and the ubports installer (modifying the config with that new url for boot.img).

                                @flohack I've successfully installed the OS on the Pixel 2. I'm getting a lot of touchscreen problems though, like double or ghost touches. Shutdown seems to really power off the device though.
