Alch3myOS is an Android Custom ROM meticulously optimized and focused exclusively on Google Pixel Tensor devices. Our goal is to provide a seamless, high-performance experience with carefully curated enhancements.
Alch3myOS is proudly open-source. All of our device-specific configurations, hardware wrappers, and kernels for the Google Tensor lineup are available on our GitHub organization.
- Device Repositories: Alch3myOS-Devices
- Git LFS installed globally (
git lfs install).
Create a new working directory for your build, navigate to it, and initialize the Alch3myOS manifest:
repo init -u https://github.com/Alch3myOS/android -b 16 --git-lfsrepo sync -c --force-sync -j$(nproc --all)- Set up the build environment
. b*/env*- Lunch your target device (replace codename with your device, e.g., husky or komodo):
lunch lineage_codename-bp4a-user- Ensure a ensure recent changes build:
m installclean- Start the compilation:
m baconIf you are setting up a new device tree for Alch3myOS, ensure the following flags and properties are set in your device's configuration files.
Define the maintainer name & url so it reflects correctly in the OS. Add this to your device_name/product.prop
ro.alch3my.maintainer=Libra420T

Let's be real: you bought a Pixel. It is literally a Google phone. We're going to safely assume you actually want Google apps on it. Unless you are trying to win some kind of irony award by aggressively de-Googling a Tensor device.
Alch3myOS doesn't exist in a vacuum. We stand on the shoulders of open-source giants (and respectfully borrow their code). A massive thank you to the developers and communities that make this project possible:
- Lunaris-AOSP - The core foundation and upstream base for Alch3myOS.
- LineageOS - For the endless hardware support, device trees, and legacy code we all rely on.
- crDroid - For always raising the ceiling.
- Axion AOSP - For providing us with innovation.
- AOSP - Google, for actually making Android open-source in the first place.
- Every single maintainer, tester, and late-night coder who has ever pushed a commit to the Android open-source tree.

Building and maintaining a custom ROM is a labor of love, endless hours of compiling, and occasionally fighting with SELinux denials at 3 AM. Alch3myOS is built by Pixel enthusiasts, for Pixel enthusiasts, with the singular goal of pushing Google's Tensor hardware to its absolute limit.
Whether you are a maintainer submitting your first device tree, a tester hunting down bugs, or just someone looking for a cleaner, faster Android experience—welcome to the project.
Grab your platform tools, unlock that bootloader, and happy flashing! 🚀
