A note for unofficial PixelOS builders​

We've pushed the CertifiedPropsOverlay template to PixelOS-AOSP/vendor_extra. You can clone it to vendor/extra and update the values as needed.

Regarding signing, we've integrated the inline signing implementation from YAAP (thanks to Ido and John), so your builds will be signed automatically. You just need to generate the private keys and place them in vendor/aosp/signing/keys/ using the following command:

subject='/C=US/ST=State/L=City/O=Android/OU=Android/CN=Android/emailAddress=email@example.com'
for x in releasekey platform shared media networkstack nfc verity otakey testkey sdk_sandbox bluetooth; do \
    ./development/tools/make_key vendor/aosp/signing/keys/$x "$subject"; \
done

where:

C: Country code (e.g., US) ST: State name L: City name O: Organization name OU: Organizational Unit name CN: Common name emailAddress: Your email address

Hello everyone, a lot has happened since our last update, especially with Play Integrity. Builds are now required to be signed, and we have implemented this change. While you won't be able to update via OTA, you should be able to update (dirty flash) over the previous May build via sideload. We bring this quick update towards the end of May as we understand Play Integrity is extremely important to you all. This will be our last update based on Android 14 QPR2 as QPR3 is around the corner.
