# Keep in mind...
<br/><br/>
- • DO NOT flash the wrong build of YAAP. Check whether your phone is Pixel 7 (panther) or Pixel 7 Pro (cheetah), the builds are not the same for both phones.
- • DO NOT USE any other recovery than YAAP recovery which is included.
- • Use the RESPECTIVE recovery for RESPECTIVE builds. (e.g if you want to flash vanilla build, use vanilla recovery, if you want to flash gapps build, flash gapps recovery)
- • You MUST format data with given YAAP recovery.
- • YOU MUST CLEAN FLASH if you are coming from any other ROM or stock.
- • Formatting with YAAP Recovery (yes, I mean YAAP Recovery ONLY) is MUST during clean flash.
- • Do NOT try to flash gapps on vanilla build, it WILL NOT work!
- • Do NOT try to flash anything other than the ROM in recovery, it WILL NOT work!
