Hey XDA!
This is just a quick build of AOSP Nougat that I though I should upload and share. It's just pure AOSP with a modified fstab and a bunch of the useless apps removed. While it does boot, the main problem is that there aren't any gapps available, so there is little functionality.
Instructions:
1. Flash vendor.img
2. Flash ROM zip
3. Boot up
Downloads:
Unofficial vendor.img: http://oceighty.co/ Created and uploaded by @xanaxdroid
ROM zip: https://basketbuild.com/ Build and uploaded by me.
DISCLAIMERS:
I'm not responsible for any mishaps you have.
This is simply a courtesy upload, do not expect updates.
The vendor.img was pulled from the OTA and is not an official factory image.
is it rooted?
The latest TWRP version functions with Android N, it now correctly decrypts the phone (yes, I'm aware this ROM is pre-decrypted). You can flash SuperSU through that and then download most of the needed GApps from APKMirror, I know Android N preview GApps were uploaded there.
confused... so I could just flashed this like a regular rom? would my internal disk erase? is this rooted?
you guys need to read the OP and stop asking senseless questions
"It's just pure AOSP with a modified fstab and a bunch of the useless apps removed"
Lol, this is why I wish rooting wasn't just a click away. I miss the old days where you actually had to know what you were doing to root the damn thing like actually being familiar with adb I doubt half the people that root haven't used shell period. Point being that the people that did it knew the ins and outs of what they were doing and there wasnt all this clutter. people used to actually do the time to research and educate themselves on what was going on now it's all entitlement give me give me i don't understand oh blah blah won't work fix it for me anyway this isn't helpful or constructive please delete goodnight

Opengapps.org should have 7.0 gapps very shortly. The August 24th build for arm has 7.0, but 8/24 hasn't built for arm64 yet.

That was fast, OP your pic looks alot like this dude.
Hm okay I see, thanks.
Can I encrypt it again if I want to?
Also I thought the Source of Android N is not released yet (delevopers.google.com) so where is this source from exactly?
.. Okay I just looked it up. So is there a difference between this one and the official OTA update? I really want to flash another ROM because my Dirty Unicorn is just a mess at the moment.

Faster boot, slightly faster I/O (although there isn't too much of a difference).
Thank you for the answer.
Can someone confirm that flashing the lastest SuperSU beta works? http://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/supersu/2014-09-02-supersu-v2-05-t2868133
So basically flashing this ROM + Vendor + ARM64 GApps + SuperSU = Android N, decrypted, rooted, with gapps?
How'd you even build this? I synced r1 and tried a build last night and it wouldn't build (for the 6p). The website doesn't show 6p as included in r1 yet

Not really, no. The ROM isn't technically decrypted at all. It just doesn't force encryption. So if you were encrypted prior to flashing you would still be encrypted. The only way to decrypt is to format userdata. The advantage of a ROM not forcing encryption (or being incorrectly labelled as decrypted in this case) is that if you were previously decrypted the kernel won't encrypt your storage on the first boot.

What is the difference between the lollipop binaries and offical binaries? Like functionaily wise
Does this contain SuperSU, or do I need to flash after install?
Whenever I try to flash, it tells me that there is no OS installed when I try to reboot.
NO OS install like another L thread.

Sorry op for posting link
Worked for me. I flashed a factory image of kitkat, then factory reset, then flashed twrp recovery, and then flashed this zip with the gapps for lollipop hosted by cyanogen.
Got root by flashing supersu's modded kernel and then supersu update zip.
All apps were automatically backed up after boot, but there is one strange thing:
Google play keeps telling me Google plus is incompatible. Is this something wrong with the Rom? Or lollipop? Or something else??

Just updated drivers really. There currently aren't any lollipop binaries that are available. Unless you can pull them from the current preview. However, you can use the preview binaries or the 4.4.4 ones until the new ones drop. I used the preview ones, but haven't been able to flash it yet.

Flash the FLO bootloader. It's OK.
is it only working as primary via multiRom recovery?
I installed it as secondary and it failed to boot.
Google+ still missing for me here
Just finished booting.
Root is no-go for me (says binaries not installed despite having installed supersu zip).
Gonna see if I can tinker around with it to make it work, but for now no root for me.

That is an affirmative.
Also after you install it as primary, you'll need to install a kexec kernel to be able to boot to your other (now secondary) rom.
ElementalX 3.00 should work fine for that.

root does not work
on this core
I flashed my deb to stock 4.4.4, installed twrp, followed all instructions in op, and I cannot root. Thus I second another user's experience with root not working/SuperSU saying there are no binaries installed. I did install the supersu zip in twrp.
Also can't install Google+ neither from Market nor APK.
Fixed by flashing newer gapps package found here.

Ok. So basically when Google updates the AOSP sources (with multiple commits) they push a new build. These new builds also contain security patches and bug fixes (very minor ones). These updates don't add new features most of the time (if they are based on the same android OS version). I have added a new line in the OP where I write the build number for the latest build. This should help people find the latest build faster.

Question about these images from google (first time nexus user, long time crack-flasher here). If i'm running stock and simply want to update to the new build, can i just extract the system image from that package and just flash it via fastboot or will that break things?
Can't wait for latest build thanks for throwing these together!

That won't boot(you be stuck on the google screen forever), you need to fastboot flash the vendor.img as well. For details:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nex...-cleancore-n6p-100-lean-stock-mbd08k-t3235306
Project on hold for a moment - my phone didn't like what I built. Going to fix it, then re-open.
So, I got tired of needing my PC to update my phone every month just because I'm rooted. So I used SuperR's Kitchen and took the stock images from Google and made them into flashable zips. These are flashable in TWRP. They are rooted and includes the vendor partition. If enough people request it, I will cook some non-root versions. I plan to add flashable bootloader and radios as well (TBD). I will try to get N zips up and going tonight.
The intention is to keep this up to date every month (until I get a new phone, not likely within the next year or two).
Advice, guidance, and requests are welcome. Doesn't mean I'll follow or fulfill them.
Directions for upgrading from a previous version:
Custom recovery (TWRP) required
Boot into recovery
Flash AOSP-[version]-angler-[build]-bootloader-signed.zip
Flash AOSP-[version]-angler-[build]-radio-signed.zip
Flash AOSP-[version]-angler-[build]-[date]-kernel-signed.zip
Flash AOSP-[version]-Rooted-angler-xxxxxx-[date].zip
OPTIONAL: Flash AOSP-[version]-angler-[build]-recovery-signed.zip (This will replace your custom recovery with the Stock recovery)
Flash any other packages you may want (such as Xposed)
Wipe cache/dalvik
Reboot
Your phone may reboot a time or two during the first boot (mine did). I am the only one that has tested this thus far. Use at your own risk. I am not responsible if this bricks your phone, kills your cat, or your house gets foreclosed on.
If you don't know how to fastboot flash the stock images, you probably should not flash these (just in case).

BETA-SuperSU-v2.74 is the one used. Pretty sure I renamed to remove the -2 at the end, but whatever was latest as of yesterday. BTW, N zips are up, but untested. I cannot express how new to this I am, and it's possible it could soft brick your phone. I'm testing the new 6.0.1 zips now, I'll test the N once I'm comfy knowing that the others work
So, I don't know what I did, but my phone did not like what I cooked. May have hard bricked it, which means I did something wrong in the bootloader. For the love of God, if you happened to have downloaded anything in the 5 minute window I had it live, don't flash it.
Thanks for this! Just out of curiosity, how often is the radio being updated?

Intro(Skip at your wish xd):
Hello guys, it's kind of frustrating that our 4a 5G don't get much love here(in custom ROM development perspective) as Pixel 5 as it's not really a "main" variant.
For myself, I love Pixel devices for Google releases "proper" device tree and most necessary stuff, but still it require quite some time for me to get things right and a working ROM build, hell, to be honest, I spent like about 30 hrs already as this is my first time to use AOSP tree + vendor blobs from Google site to build ROMs)
Despite the lack of previous experience, the first build that I'm releasing here, is working quite well, I haven't discovered any (device-specific) bug just yet, anyway, let's continue

Instructions:
0. Make sure your bootloader is unlocked
1. Download ROM zip from the link below, and grab Magisk patched boot.img inside the folder as well if you want root access
2. Reboot to bootloader
2.5. Flash updated bootloader.img and radio.img from Google site
3. Use `fastboot -w update LineageOS_microG-bramble-(BUILD DATE HERE)-userdebug-signed.zip` to flash
and yes, you can omit the "-w" parameter if you're not flashing for the first time, aka just updating from previous release
4(optional). Hopefully after flashing you'll be booted into LineageOS, reboot to bootloader again,
and flash the Magisk patched boot.img extracted from the 7z file with `fastboot flash boot magisk_patched.img`,
reboot after finished
5. Enjoy!

Awesome, thank you!
I've never heard of the MicroG before so just looked that up. I'm loving that philosophy so I'm definitely gonna be checking that out! Thanks! My pixel is arriving tomorrow so after playing around with it first, I'll try out your ROM once there's more responses from others here.
Hey thx for the ROM is a A11 Version planned?
I'll wait for Android 11 version

LineageOS 18.0 is Android 11, but XDA didn't update the option menu so I chose Android 10.

Took a while for this thread to pop back up after forum migration..
Thanks for the awesome work
Is anyone using this ROM as their daily driver? I'm still reluctant to risk my warranty
I guess I will roll the dice and give it a go. Anyone know if this will affect my e-sim with Google Fi?
Thank you, dic1911 for being so awesome to bring first rom to Bramble, which is almost brand-new! I appreciate your work and we are really glad for it.

It won't affect Google Fi.
Thanks. It looks great and runs good but I’m obviously missing something. I tried installing GApps via ADB side load and no matter which size Nikhil version I attempt to install, I get an error there’s not enough memory. I’ve rebooted after flashing to the rom and also done a factory reset to no avail. What am I missing? I’ve also tried it with and without the patched boot.img.

Use systemless WeebGapps via Magisk:

Does this rom use seedvault like mainline lineageos? Or is google backup in here even with microg?

Warranty? Should not effect that. I wouldn't think it would. Bootloader is unlockable and google even gives the option to flash aosp vanilla(no google) or public (official google rom) with their flashing tool (via chrome browser).
Are Pixel-Exclusive features such as Now Playing, Live Captions, Call Screening, Adaptive Sound, Screen Attention included and working?
Any issues getting safetynet to pass?

This is Lineage... You install this one to get privacy and free yourself from Gapps. You might be able to get most features running, but then you just can stay with stock - privacy is then gone again...

SeedVault is builtin system app for all LineageOS builds, no matter it's official or not, if it's not there in someone else's build, either it's removed by the builder or the build is too old.
So yes, SeedVault is in my build, but there's no guarantee that it works with any apps just like Google Backup(which I found pretty much useless in my case)
PS. I'm not really as active as I was on xda since about 2 years ago, please join Telegram for more updated stuff
PPS. I released GCam extracted from stock ROM and modified to make it work on LineageOS(and pretty much any custom ROM with right stuff baked in), and yes, you'll need to flash updated build from my Telegram channel (It's more convenient for me to upload to Telegram as the storage space there is unlimited)
LineageOS 18.1 is up!
Now with December security patch, grab it from the link in OP
