Nope... haven't got to that yet... and other things in my list... Lost two days debugging IMEI-per-slot issue which also affects per-sim-ringtones and finally got to the whats and whys of it. Unfortunately have no idea how to fix it... yet... Android telephony framework just doesn't do well with multisim devices :(

Tell me is MIUI showing correct IMEIs per slot even if one is empty? Might have to dissect MIUI to see how they do it...

Does deleting/commenting out this line in build.prop fixes it?

https://github.com/nijel8/android_device_xiaomi_msm8956-common/blob/cm-14.1/system.prop#L34

I don't have any issues with headset volume. That property affects only specific countries in which is required to warn user for save headset volume. It should bypass that message only but who knows what else it might do. USA is not affected so that's why I might not be having issues...

Otherwise nothing else related has changed from previous version...

At first I have to say that this Rom is awesome! Everything works fine, but i found out two little bugs:

-Hdr does not work. The snapdragon camera does not put the images together.

I don't know if you can solve that, or only the developers of the Snapdragon camera can repair it.

-On battery settings Standby Time is the same like the time while the phone is discharging.

For example: 4 hours on battery - 2 hours screen on time and 4 hours standby time.

I hope you understand me :'D

Sorry for my bad English^^

I wouldn't confirm it, in DeepSleep the battery drain is 0%/h according to BetterBatteryStats (please install it, run and find the culprits).

And maybe you should do something about Google Services first (also in many apps) ;)

I'm seeing almost 0% idle power use with Google stuff frozen, about 6% per hour when active. That's slightly better than the previous ROM release.

Is it possible to get 15 hours SOT while still having 3G/LTE and VoLTE active along with WiFi? I know e90 Commie gets some crazy long runtimes but that's with mobile data off.

HDR - not sure I can do anything about it if it it's not working

Phone Idle - we have discussed it before and I am not really sure what it should represent as time. It's kinda confusing... Phone never idles in reality... It always do something even if it sleeps.

Edit: What camera are you talking about? Is Snapdragon = built-in Snap? Probably not so even more nothing I can do...

Edit2: Just tested HDR with Snap and it makes 2 images. What is it suppose to do? Not a camera fan so don't know these stuff...

Edit3: After some reading looks like it's working. You get 2 images - one normal and one hdr. With some other camera apps you get 3 - one light, one dark and the hdr.
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] noah110112:
Thanks for your fast reply! :)

Yes, it's the buildin Snapdragon Camera. :)

In hdr mode, the smartphone usually makes 2 or more photos with different exposure and then puts them together to form a picture.

And about the battery bug: I've disconnected my phone 10 hours ago from power supply and have a screen on time of 4 hours.so should actually be only 6 hours of standby time possible and not 10 hours. :silly:

I can not upload a screenshot... "Network error" :confused:

[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] dj69holland:
have 2 sims in use, no problems with staying active/simultaneously, but i do notice that the signal randomly drops and goes back up, even when kept in one spot, and network antennas are giving steady signal

2 sim here also, no problems to have both actives (only issue is on switching data between the 2, the phone get locked, I need to unlock it back with fingerprint, no big deal)
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] HannibalLecter:
[MENTION=4399618]nijel8[/MENTION] something wonderful you have done to the ROM. It seems really really smooth.

I always mentioned miui being smoother than LOS (I understand better now why it was so. They use a perf-tuned kernel which has higher input boost frequency with probably all cores online when screen is on. As a UI concept, they do a better job than google at making better animations but this is a disucssion for another day).

The point is that the ROM is smmmmmooooooothhhh :D :D :D

I just wish we had OMS so that I could use my themes (Belo and Reverie are my current favourites) and/or at the very least, I can use my font of choice using Typeface app (Nunito font is a really really beautiful and elegantly rounded font-it does not have all the weights so I cannot flash it over through recovery-I dunno how to either :P )

Thanks!

And if I use IM communicators like Facebook it's always third party some lightweight (e.g. Lite, Messenger Lite, Metal, Swipe, Folio) and unfreeze it only for half an hour of communicating! (As also do so with Skype, WhatsApp etc)

Instead, I've three weather applications with 6 complex widgets constantly running and apparently system can tame them in DeepSleep.

There was a user on 4pda complaining switching one sim on turns the other one off. I did a lot of code tinkering before this update with telephony trying to debug some sim issues so I was wondering if I forgot to revert something for the release.

You know, I am starting to like it too, it really flies... There are still some things under the hood most of you won't notice that I want to address so that would be my priority before changing anything else. So don't expect anything exciting...

I need to teach myself when enough is enough or this rom will be flooded with useless features as most of the other custom roms. It became so different from LineageOS I shouldn't call it unofficial Lineage anymore.

Hey guys, is camera and video recording working correctly in LineageOS-based ROMs again?

I did an update a few weeks back and it was completely broken and had to revert to MIUI to get my wife to stop complaining about my phone being crap and causing us to miss photo opportunities of our baby :-/ But I really dislike MIUI, especially the way it doesn't play nicely with non-vendor apps (E.g. Textra, etc) so I would love to return to a LineageOS-based ROM...

It's back in for next release... Till then flash framework.zip to get it right away.

I see this too but haven't noticed unchanged percentage, just that no data available status from time to time ... That's one of the bugs not sure how to trace yet...

Now to tell you the true guys last couple of days I see many bugs, some hard to trace, and I don't know where to start. My mood is down... Can't concentrate... I've been working on this two weeks straight and need a little brake I guess...

I have problem to connect to LTE, except I choose network preffered to LTE only it is automatically choose WCDMA or GSM over LTE even though there is LTE network available.

Is it only me or it is a bug?

Is there any solution? Because I need LTE for internet connection (3G network is very slow here) and also need to be able to do voice calling (since VOLTE is not supported yet)
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Andy4Shurr:
If I'm on global it will pick up LTE for me but occasionally drop to 3G/H+, often it will connect via LTE again after some minutes. If I specifically choose LTE it will stay on LTE with decent signal but I can't then make voice calls.

I believe this is normal behavior based on connection strength, even though LTE may be available, if 3G is a better connection it will opt for that.

I found it is worse on MIUI actually, I can't get it to stay on LTE at all.

[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] i04055:
Yes, usually if 4G signal is weaker it will switch automatically to 3G.

But it's not the case for me, because 4G signal is very good, and also this issue just happened after I flash latest release. Before, I used to use MIUI 8 China Dev Rom and initial release of Lineage OS, both having no problem staying on LTE network.

It really is flying. Previous builds used to glide. This one has started to fly. Great Great Great work.

Yeah, I know you're working on a lot of things under the hood. Some of them are related to the collaboration with Zola. Its all great.

May be some day when you feel like writing, you can create a blog post or just a text on OP, about all the changes/optimizations you have done to the ROM and how they translate to better performance over official LOS. also, all the things that you do different from LOS.

It will be quite an interesting read. :)

and yeah, completely slipped off my mind that status bar icon toggles thingy. :P :P

PS: I wish OMS would have been a flashable mod like xposed or something so that it wouldnt be so much of a hassle to bake it into the ROM.

Kudo to you and your work on this device. It has been really awesome.

without you this phone and the whole (mi Max device)forum here, would have been a complete waste. Honestly.

Thanks! I was using the officially supported RR 5.8.3 rom but that seems to have died now with the original people moving on or disappearing.
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] pawwaap:
It's much useful hint, thank you, but how does it work exactly? It prevents running some services which are "hanging" in background after user closes their program or it closes a program itself after user sends it in background (starts another process)?

It's sometimes useful having an application running in background until user closes it deliberately.

(Asking because also have PMP Xposed module, on other phone and system, which also controls apps background running. And if e.g. TapaTalk and Opera are this way prevented I simply can't switch between them, to e.g. copy and paste content between them, because when app is sent into background PMP immediately closes it)

Well that's what git is useful for. Funny thing is we didn't done much especially last build don't have anything performance related (all do LineageOS guys did done more than couple things regarding it on the ROM side [still to be continued]).

Had you ever tried devlik VM settings as I suggested you, to address the app restarts?

Yeah, that's right for device tree, I meant Android changes, I don't commit those for easier syncing with LineageOS sorces and now I have a pretty big pile of changed files all over the place without any history kept. Those will be the problem.

No, I haven't tried VM settings as I keep them same as AOSP/LineageOS ones. They are part of my can't-make-everybody-happy believes... :)
