          Very good, already a bunch of test users. I am preparing a few things to make your life easier, in the meantime, if you have any data on the phone that needs to be backed up, do it (externally). Due to the nature of AndroidΒ΄s data encryption we need to format the data partition, and that means loosing all data there πŸ˜‰

            Hi

            I have a Pixel (sailfish) 128gb I'm ready to put onto a spare device whenever.

            What kind of tests will you need to run?

                  Also have a pixel and would be happy to test. Only thing is the bluetooth is broken on it so won’t be able to test that.

                        Okay so thank you for subscribing so far πŸ™‚

                        We are are ready for the first round of tests. Please be aware that this is really work in progress, so for example today I found out that modem communication has stopped, you can only use WiFi so far πŸ™‚

                        Also, a weird thing: WiFi sometimes races on startup and then you will find no APs in the list. Try to reboot until you get a good indication of APs and WiFi symbol is being shown correctly.

                        Generic instructions you can find here: https://pad.ubports.com/p/HaliumHowToTestInstall

                        The images you need you will find here: https://twoot.bin.org.in/nextcloud/index.php/s/iAZDDkRYYAiN6Kk

                        After the initial steps of course, only the last part with halium-install will be relevant in the future. That will save some time. I also plan to publish the script that does just replace the system image, so you dont need always to replace the whole rootfs.

                        Let me know if that makes sense.

                            @lordzeed humm are you in the directory with that script (use ls -la to verify) and did you make it executable (see if its rwxr-x-r-x)

                                          First boot takes forever on Pixel. I see Google logo on white screen for an hour.

                                            @turanmahmudov well then maybe reboot, 1 hour is too much πŸ˜‰ can you do a dmesg on your host and see if a USB device is shown when you connect the phone?
