Unofficial builds for Google Pixel devices

New builds published:

  • PIxel 4a and higher: v7.1
  • Pixel 3a and lower: v6.11 (sadly, LineageOS does not provide A16 / LOS 23 updates for these devices)

Major Announcement for users of @rik’s Unofficial iodéOS Pixel builds:

Due to changes on the LineageOS for microG server that hosts my unofficial iodéOS Pixel builds, and also due to us now implementing OTA updates for these builds, a new signing key has been used to make builds starting in January 2026.

This means if you attempt to install an update using “Updater App > 3 dots > Local update” it will fail, due to the mismatch between the build signature of the pre-Jan-2026 build and the new build. In order to update without losing data you will need to boot into Recovery and install the new build via adb sideload. While installing, you will get a warning message that the “Build signature does not match”. Accepting this warning will then proceed to install the new build and you will be all set with the new build signature and with the OTA update configuration.

Future builds will now come “OTA” directly from the Updater App without the need to manually download them and apply as “Local Updates”. Enjoy!
