Pix3lify
As a Mi A1 user, I was stuck with Stock Oreo 8.0.0 without Oreo custom ROMs when I first bought my device. Kernel sources weren't released at the time so I decided if I can cook up a Magisk module that can bring me the Pixel UI without the need to install that ROM. What I did is to search around the internet which lead me to downloading the Pixel 3 XL factory images and I have extracted the files mostly needed in the new Pixel 3 devices. I've decided to gather these files and compiled them all into a single Magisk Module. This module can be flashed with other devices on Nougat and above as well.

Tried to include the Pixel Setup wizard. However, there are errors. Looks like the Pixel setup wizard only works well with 8.1 and not 8.0.

I definitely want to know the answer to this one!
Hello, thank you for the module !!
Do you think night mode (== blue filter, not the dark theme) can be re-added to Nexus 6P with it ?
Does this works on los 15.1? I think it should because it's android 8.1 and it's almost stock.
Is it fully compatible on the Galaxy s8 exynos ?
Is google lens also work in google assistant...?

As much as I want to answer that, I don't have a OnePlus device on OOS. But since OOS is close to stock, it may possibly work as no files in the system are being replaced. Feel free to test and provide feedback for other users.

Hi! I'm really not sure what caused the Night light feature to go away but as far as testing goes, this module doesn't re-enable it. Sorry.

It should work on any custom ROM with a near stock experience. I've tested it on crDroid 8.1 and it's working fine.

I think that feature is enabled server-side which means the feature rolls out per account/location probably.

That I've yet to find out, but I don't think all the features will work as it's on TouchWiz and the module mostly serves stock/near-stock/custom ROMs.

Actually, I wanted to know the answer because I already have a couple of Pixel-related modules installed (Lens enabler, Pixel Launcher) and did not want to go through the hassle of disabling them to test this.
But I'll see if I can test it tonight. Thanks for answering it anyway! :good:

Yes.....working perfectly fine for me
i have used lineageos 14.1 on my mi 5 before, but it used to stuck sometimes and was not smooth and it used to lag when i try to record videos so i switched back to miui. i am looking for the best rom for mi 5 which dosent lag or hang and the camera, video recording works smoothly.i dont change roms frequently so i want a rom which i can install and use it for a long time without any problems.can anyone please suggest me a rom?
Thanks
I think the best rom is viperOS
Which build of LOS 14.1 you use? I use the latest build and everything is smooth, much smoother than MIUI.
Masik is awesome loving it i have tried alll the oreo and nougout rom but nothing comes close to that rom only cons are some of xposed modules doesnt work but other than that magisk is a total winner
I think you must install AOSP based ROMs. I am using ViperOS 3.1.1 and it is running smooth.
I recommend you to try Omni rom or dirty unicorns rom with gcamera & ruthless pixel launcher for an outstanding experience on Mi5. Both are fast,smooth & battery friendly.
Lineage is also very stable but DU 8.1 has many useful customizations built in.
my phone redmi 4x cant use video record on gcam, it keep crashing when i push red record button
im already change many other oreo roms like dotos, aosp extended, crdroid but it didnt fixed gcam video keep crashing
my friend phone redmi note 3 / kenzo can use video record on OREO 8.1.0 i still dont know why
please help me
Same here but I have Moto g5s
Same here
Try using latest GCam made by UriKill. Everything works for me on NitrogenOS.
Anyone using the new gcam with nightsight? Apparently eventhough bulit for oneplus 6 by arnov it works better with mi5 but im on miui rom and it won't work. So i wanted to know if anyone has used it before changing roms abd whether it works only on pie roms or anything from nougat.
It needs pie.
its pie only as of now use syberia os if you really want to try of btw its laggy and sluggish but actual camera performance is mind bobbling .
For those of you running Android 9 on your XC, I've come across a relatively stable GCam port with the latest Pixel camera functionality. While not entirely perfect on the XC, it does work quite well and takes some amazing shots with the right settings. For those that would like to try here's the link:
https://f.celsoazevedo.com/file/cfiles/gcm1/PMGC_7.0.009_HDR_Version_V13.apk
If you have any better GCam suggestions, feel free to add here.
Does it work on LineageOS 16.0 port by Chipp_a?
No, that version uses Linux 3.10.x kernel, which unfortunately does not support any of the newer GCam mods with HDR support.
