Happy NY Greatest Mi Max Dev! Thanks you!

Only one thing left undone in our favorite LOS. It is a USB Quick Charging that presents in some kernels.

Sometimes I really need it. When my MiMax works as USB modem common current from PC is 0.44 A (0.5 A in theory) and it cannot charge phone under LTE load. But with USB QC current is 0.76 A (0.9 A for USB 3.0 in theory) and it can charging under data transferring.

Therefore I have two kernels. One from Nijel for battery life and TTL fixing (Thanks again for that feature!) and another one with USB QC for modeming. Kernel flashing is fast enough but its a good idea to implement all good features in one best kernel!

After reinstalling the system I've got the conclusion this was after doing "Patch to Android" in LP.

But I want to have freedom in installing unsigned apps etc, what to do?

its more easy if know about app by self. some modder puts their code at libil2cpp.so like assasin identity, various survival game like jurassic or zombie survival, the trail, dll. some modder put their mod in obb. lua script is available too at some game. im using Game guardian to manually change resource. when using unsigned mode even the app show installed display, playgames stop save our progress. so im stop using unsigned game.

Why has installing Xprivacy blocked the launcher?

Is there any other way to make an application of choice think it is running on a different device model (a tablet with wifi only instead of real MiMax)?

I want the Viber to run on the two different phones, Viber registered with the same telephone number. It is only possible if the second device is a tablet with just WiFi.

USB Fast Charging is a dangerous thing despite the fact that many kernel modders are implementing it. I am a fixer, not a modder... mainly. You can easy fry the source if you overload the port. I have looked for ways to detect USB3.0 and enable fast charging but hw/drivers can't do that so most likely not going to happen... Except maybe with a big warning dialog with a fat red 72pt size font and asking 17 times before allows you enabling it...

Nope... Keyboards and alarms are not related... I should stop explaining my changes to avoid confusion...:) What issues!? No issues here...

I know a few idiots in the bacon devs asking for fast charge through USB and implementing 100V 200A charging through normal charger.

and devs implementing it. Thank god I read all that and deleted the thread out of my subscriptions.
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] shaglord:
Can't turn the alarm off because screen won't come on. Only issue I have left with my phone and it's not a biggie. :)

It reminds me of when the proximity sensor was busted on the Samsung S2. When placing a call the screen just turned off and you couldn't end the call to come out of it. At least then pushing the power button finally turned the screen on. Weird huh.

Maybe it's a result of dirty flashing new builds. Although I am almost sure I had the same problem on the 2017.10.27 build that I initially installed.

Anyway, if I get some more clues I'll write. Thanks for reading. I really love this ROM.

is this rom better for game that miui 9 based rom? what about the battery?
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] HannibalLecter:
stay on miui9. you'll be happy.

Edit: Just kiddin. both are great. real great. I mean game & battery. On this rom.

and yeah, game well.

---------- Post added at 12:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:56 PM ----------

do a clean flash and dont use any battery saving **** and then set an alarm after a minute. increase to max brightness. turn the screen off. Your screen will light up as ****.
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Zola III:

what happened?
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] oatcooky:
100V 200A charging will definitely cook a lot of bacon ;)

I'm happy enough with 2500 mA QC2.0 charging. I always take the phone out of its case because battery temps can go over 40° C.

Happy new year nijel8 and everyone, thank you so much for a beautiful ROM. No issues with the first 2018 release so far.
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] HannibalLecter:
yeah. It will. :P

you know honestly I never even look at how much charging current I am getting.

Because I always put it on charge at night.

and because the phone lasts me all day no matter How much I use it.

So, charging at the normal rate is just fine.

and honestly even though it says charging slowly, I don't perceive it being slow.

It will be wise to not fuss about charging rate because a normal rate charging phone is better than a fried unusable phone.

I'd advise the fast-charge requesting guys to think a lil more long term than the next day.
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] gagas1:
Hi. I know it's been answered before but after so many releases can we still install this over the official LOS by wiping only dalvik, cache and system.. Thanks
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] sp0979:
Fresh Install is recommended.
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] nijel8:
No offense but this question makes no sense at all. What's wrong with dirty flash and if issues arise just wipe and start clean...!?!?:rolleyes:

Valid for any rom flashing over anything btw... It's not like you will brick the phone...

The new year, whether to terminate the maintenance of nougat, to develop Oreo?:D
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Actura:
Well nobody knows what is going to happen next

Take it easy haha

Some roms are heavily modified that might give you to of problems while being dirty flashed.

Nice 1.1.18 update btw
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Zola III:
The ROM is written on the system partition that you format along with cache & davlik cache while data partition where apps are stays intact. That is what so called "dirty flashing is" if their is no bump in Android versions and mostly a major one it will just work fine 90% of times, other 10% is when something doesn't get done correctly gets sticked & jammed & cure is clean flash. Simple as that.
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Actura:
I see. Thanks for the informative post.

Anyway, just keep it going there, your contribution is very good for mi max.

Sometimes people just want to be safe while flashing custom tom. Custom Rom itself isn't always risk free and the act of unlocking bootloader isn't either.
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] jpph:
You can have strange behaviours dirty flashing different rom because all rom are not storing user settings the same way.
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] nijel8:
As long as you have working bootloader(fastboot), even EDL, there is nothing to worry about...

Not to mention recovery... so what's the problem trying dirty flash first? Even if the ROM flashes every single partition on your device...

The only thing is DON"T FLASH rom for other device, you will be screwed up no mater flashing clean or dirty!!!

So the question flashing clean or dirty makes no sense...
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] HannibalLecter:
regarding safety of flashing and unlocking bootloader, I disagree.

It is completely safe if you do it right.

Now if anyone uses superglue instead of vaseline, problems are bound to happen. :P

regarding dirty flash vs clean. It is a very simple rule.

Different ROMs = clean flash.

Same ROM = dirty unless stated otherwise.

Although, this ROM can be flashed over official LOS but technically they're different ROMs so no point asking.

Try dirty if you must, if something's wrong you know what to do.
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] HannibalLecter:
read the thread or rather just nijel8 posts. He has already been quite forthcoming about Oreo plans.

There are no plans until Lineage OS 15.1 branch stables out lol

rather fit enough for even an alpha release.

Oreo will come as soon as LOS 15.1 becomes of any use.

how do i update to latest built without losing existing data?

[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] badillin:
Well im still fighting with my missing Quick/Fast Charge... people talk about getting 2500 mAh but think ive never seen over 1800... Last night it took 3hrs to go from 9 to 95% so that is like medium speed charging... Anyways thats not why im here!

Could anyone help me out on how to run an app that doesnt like being run on a rooted device? ive read tutorials, but they mention removing Root before installing Magisk... and from the getgo that doesnt sound right.

I was wondering how do you people get around this on this specific rom?
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] T.kum1993:
Are you sure you have a quick charger 2.0 or 3.0. Sounds like you have 5V-2A charger that comes with the phone.

And about root you just have to download the magisk manager apk, give it root access and just follow the instructions after its installed, use magisk hide for apps you want to hide root from.
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] badillin:
Yes im sure, i have 4 Quick Chargers of different brands, and my Mi Max doesnt detect them as such, but my wifes Moto G4 does, that means, lockscreen an external device that reads V and A and an App all tell her she is super charging and tell me im not. For some reason the regular 5v2a chargers i have seem to give out more "juice" than the Qchargers for some reason.

Most likely a hardware issue i guess, im sure i saw them kick in before, but havent in a while and havent been able to do it again...

Anyways, i instelled Magisk Manager and it asked me to flash the .zip

So... basically i just install without removing the original root? the #1 step on all the tutorials i read on how to install magisk...

thanks
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] khnoizer:
Yes, flash it right away. Magisk will automatically remove built in root.
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] oatcooky:
Quick Charge can be flaky on this device. Sometimes I get only 1500 mA on the first try, I unplug and plug the cable back in and then I'll get 2500 mA. This ROM also shows "Rapidly charging" on the lock screen if QC is working. I'm using a cheap multiport Aukey QC 2.0 charger.
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] judytankgirl:

[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] karlax:

hey dear developer, it's really a nice rom and i'm very comfortable with it. but here i still want to come up with a suggestion. could you add a function that we can unlock mobile phone directly with fingerprint after reboot instead of typing password? i think it's more convenience:):)
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] iaio72:
hi, I have a little problem that I can not solve, after installing the rom for the first time the fast charge worked fine, then I blocked the phone by installing a wrong theme with substratum, I repeated the clean installation three times but the quick charge does not work anymore, any advice?

Thanks
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Zola III:
Nope that is security measure.

[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] badillin:
Hi if you ever get QC to kick in again, let me know how you did it, as i am in the same boat as you (except the wrong substatum theme) basically it worked, then i updated and now it doesnt... (i basically think it might be a Hardware issue, but hey! im willing to try new possible fixes.)
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] troyinjapan:
What is the preferred way to submit logs that's most useful for the developer?

I have the SysLog app, and everything is checked (kernel log, last kernel log, main log, event log, modem log, audit logs, scrub potentially personal information from the logs). Do I just press the TAKE LOG button and submit the .zip file, or should I uncheck some of the options. I had a hard crash/restart the other day with swiping up using the Facebook app. My phone crashed, went to the LinageOS boot screen. If it happens again, I will submit a log (once I figure out the proper method). If it requires a different app, please post a link and directions. Thanks in advance.
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Zola III:
Well you can't catch log for something that already caused kernel panic (which is also security mechanism) no matter what is checked in. You need to grab log earlier when you feel its acting funny & as soon as possible when you notice it.

The Facebook app is something worst written ever. Try Fella.
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] troyinjapan:
That sucks. But I know it's not just the Facebook app now. I was browsing using the Amazon app (Amazon.co.jp) and had a hard crash/reset 20 minutes ago, exactly the same as when I was using the Facebook app. I was just looking for some Bluetooth headphones, reading and crash. I would like to contribute to find out what the problem is.

I did a complete wipe at the end of the summer and have dirty flashed since.

Any suggestions going forward are welcome.
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Zola III:
Well we need more conformance from more people to ensure it's not just you, aka something got jammed/stuck.

A summing you want sport one's take a look at Meizu EP51.

Well we will see what happens next... When you find time try with a clean flash. Kernel hadn't been changed much recently & nothing there which could cause similar fallout's.

I dirty flashed the ROM, firmware and GAPPS again, so hopefully that sorts things out.

However, I just look for /sys/fs/pstore folder in advance, but I can't find it for the life of me. I tried connected to my computer and using ES File Explorer Pro and I can't find it, by looking or using the search function.

Clean flashed the Helium Jan. 1 build and 9.1.2.0 firmware and I still get the random WiFi disconnecting. Device is helium 128gb. Anyone else have this problem?

First tried this rom and RR back in october and I got the wifi disconnecting back then. Tried alot of different firmware versions in the AFH site but all of them have this problem. Miui 8 does not have this problem. Have not tried Miui 9.

I remember having complained about Live Display once before. The color temperature of the display is very irregular. Does not change to the set value at night and stays white 6000K despite being set at 2500K for night. a very few times it does. So, it is def not broken but faulty.

even more important than this is the fact that I think Adaptive Display is very very bad on this phone.

It works but knows only 2 discrete values it seems. When I am indoors and all lights of the room are ON, without adaptive display the screen is bright as hell and with adaptive display the screen dims a little, so thats good and shows that it works. But seems only works to lower the brightness just once and gets stuck at that value.

At Night when all lights are OFF, the adaptive display stays at the same brightness as it was when the lights were ON. So it Blinds me each night when I look at the phone.

This doesnt happen with my other phone, Bacon, its adaptive display dims the screen more at night with all lights off.

Lengthy explanation but a detailed one :)
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] oatcooky:
No issue with adaptive brightness for me. It works fine even in very dark rooms at night although it takes a few seconds to adjust to bright sunlight.

As for color temperature changes, you're better off using CFLumen. It has a lot more options and it works consistently, unlike Live Display. I've got a Tasker setup that lets me choose red-only or green-only tints at night to preserve night vision.
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Zola III:
Live display is as that from day one on CM12. Their whose attempt of fixing it on 14.1 era but as you see its still buggy.

Display needs calibration and beyond one provided with live display all do it can do for starters. I tend to stil use Eizo 9500 profile.

What is the issue exactly? Is LTE not working or working but the device fluctuates between LTE and 3G.
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] arbitrarygrill:
Honestly this rom is basically perfect to me, the only thing I'm missing is stereo speaker output, or at least the dual mono potential like the Mi Max 2, the mod we have access to doesn't function well, as the mixer files are now vastly different, and the mod results in stuttering audio due to the outdated file that's likely from all the way back from lineage OS 13 as base.
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Zola III:
So what do you want? To come & put the other speaker in for you? Or maybe 3 of them so that it becomes HiFi? Mixers are costume in this ROM. Get a decent pair of headphones & enjoy.
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] arbitrarygrill:
Lol no need to be rude, just use the earpiece speaker as a second speaker, it's already do-able with a mod, I'm just not good enough at editing .XML files to get it to work with the latest mixer paths file
