My Gen1 Pixel is still going strong here. 2-3 days battery life with light use and monthly AOSP updates via Pixel Experience ROM. Hope to use it another 5 years

- Sosh101 5y agoThat's where I was before the update. I loved that phone :-( Now about 7hrs bat life and a half working device. > AOSP updates via Pixel Experience ROM I'd be interested to know what this is! Is it something I can use? Edit: Found it now - looks interesting. Was the installation relatively pain free?
- m3nu 5y agoYes, it's "relatively" easy. They had over-the-air delta updates with Android 10, but not for 11. Here my current steps for each ROM upgrade. Installation would be similar: - Connect USB - Boot in Fastboot: Press and hold Volume Down, then press and hold Power - Install TWRP recovery `fastboot flash boot twrp-...` - Select to boot recovery mode using Volume Up/Down - Format system and cache partitions ONLY. Leave data and internal - Choose Advanced > Sideload, then run `adb sideload PixelExp...zip` on computer
- Sosh101 5y agoThank you, I will likely try this.
