I can confirm that system is formatted to EXT4 on flash. I am on latest TWRP but only cache and data can be formatted as F2FS. Dalvik and internal storage won't format to F2FS
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] E90 Commie:
I got my internal storage formatted as F2FS using TWRP and I checked it with the recovery. It is the /system which is stubbornly keeping EXT4. I assume RR doesn't support it as F2FS, hence automatic reformat (the device wouldn't boot otherwise so it's a security feature).
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] PassieWater:
Weird.... My internal storage won't format as F2FS
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] AthlonGFX:
One more stupid question, is Substratum supported and if so does it cause lag? I've seen in some roms substratum makes the system almost un-usable
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] PassieWater:
And yes people.... Formatting as F2FS really boosts your i/o

I first had an AnTuTu of 82.000/83.000 and now 88.000+ (I even had 90.000+ on 20172707 build.... airplane mode and de-bloated and fresh install)
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] E90 Commie:
I got it done with TWRP 3.1.0-1. No errors. Kindly notice that formatting /data as F2FS will wipe the internal storage as well so take care.
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] PassieWater:
Are you sure you mean internal storage? Because i am on twrp 3101 too but when i want to change internal storage it says invalid partition selection.....i can only wipe it not change it just like dalvik/ART

Wow!! That's something i needed exactly!!!

Gonna try it

No. Sadly emulating init.d won't solve this issue.

Because it requires some seconds to auto start the emulator app.

And, /system/etc/init.d works in rr. But, doesn't do anything for SELinuux.

I think the on the 1st stage of booting has permissive mode.

Then, it changes the kernel into enforcing after sometime.

[MENTION=4399618]nijel8[/MENTION] said:

su

setprop persist.sys.selinux.enforcing 0

it will need to do once, and keep the SELinux status permissive until i erase /data, or, delete /data/property/persist.sys.selinux.enforcing

(As far as i know)
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] nijel8:
Correct. My kernel sets selinux permissive, then init checks that property and if it doesn't exist (empty) it sets it to enforcing. So as long as that property exists init respects its value whatever it is.

Shift nova launcher apk to /system/app instaed of /system/priv-app..
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Davehimself:
I remember that I adapted the trees like you told me once, so wasn't sure about it. But I just checked both files you mentioned and the lines are back again, cause I forgot to delete them again after several resyncs. I didn't notice any issues so far and the SELinux switch works fine too with your default SELinux configuration, so setting setprop persist.sys.selinux.enforcing 0 should work fine.
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Davehimself:
What for ?

[MENTION=222328]dave[/MENTION] i dont know if anyone is experiencing this but the usage seems to be laggy now after the update,also i see a high memory use mainly android system and google play services,earlier the ram usage would be around 1.5gb but now its 2gb -2.1 gb,also is cm music service required?

---------- Post added at 04:42 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:40 AM ----------

i have done a clean install ,wipe off everthing..
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Davehimself:
No, can't confirm that. All the same like in last build. I always got about 2GB average.

...No, cm music service is not required. Must be some service for their music player I guess. Lots of files get updated after an android security patch and that's why some of the aosp apps come back sometimes. Just ignore it or remove it. It doesn't do anything and will be removed anyway in next release.
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] sameermehta1977:
thanks dave will remove that service,and monitor the performance further,i am using zollaIII script also..
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Davehimself:
If android system and google services are now the two things that require significant more RAM, maybe generally check out if others noticed that too after the august security patch. Cause I got almost every google app and social media app installed on my phone my RAM usage is always high, so that's why I might not notice any difference :D

But as you probably know, it will take a long time until the official companys like Xiaomi Samsung LG etc. will release the security patch. MIUI is always 2-3 month behind. Embarrassing :rolleyes:
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] lawong:
Yah substratum supported,im using it now in all section like font,bootanimation,overlay etc.

Didnt see any lagg using substratum.

need some information about nijel8's 8.5.1.0 and Davehimself's V5.8.2.0.

which one shoud i need to flash?
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] sameermehta1977:
i was about to ask dave that;) ,but as other poster said to me in other group that 8.5.1 is the stable firmware,i personally rhink that 7.7.20 should be higher since 8.5.1 nougat os has been in development with xaiomi for long time and dev roms have been weekly updated,i may be wrong in that ,i flashed 7.7.20,and its working fine

---------- Post added at 08:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:31 AM ----------

dave what if i remove google play services will it hamper facebook,whatsapp,messenger,cs browser,k9 email

i only need google contact syncing and gdrive
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Davehimself:
nijel8 took the firmware from global version 8.5.1.0 and I took the firmware from china version 8.5.2.0, that's all.

Please don't give it too much attention. It's really not that important. You wont notice any difference. I just always take the latest version I can find, no matter if it is global or china, because I didn't notice any differences between both firmwares. All files are the same size so I think xioami uses the same firmware and blobs for both versions. That's just what I noticed so far. If anybody knows more, please let me know.
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Jovicom:
Thanks for this great Rom, i have a question, how can change the camera icon? Where put my new Camera icon for change in submenu Camera App?

Thank you and sorry for my english.
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] iknusna:
Thank you for your kindness!!

Your ROM is BEST !!
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Davehimself:
In never tried to remove google play services, so I have no idea. Just give it a try and let us know. If something goes wrong, just dirtyflash the build again :)
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Davehimself:
I assume you are using the nova launcher and have installed any icon theme pack from the playstore for exemple.

Tap and hold the icon to open the shortcuts, tap on the top bar settings or something like that and then it will open a window were you just have to click on the icon to select another one.
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Jovicom:
Many thanks but I need to know where I put an icon in PNG so that I recognize the submenu of the app, so that I appear where you say since I only appear the original icon.

Thanks.

I cant find where to change led colour for messages anymore. Someone knows? I am getting old... Lol

To give nova root permission, you don't have to cut/paste it in system/apps, but as long as it's working, nevermind. :)
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] E90 Commie:
Interesting list. They should talk plainly: "For maximum security, get an Ericsson GH388."

The thing is that "antivirus" apps on Android can't do the type of analysis that are common on computers due to the system permission management so most of the alarms are false positives.

You will have to download apps from very shady sources in order to risk malware.

One problem with those security companies is that their business is to scare people into buying their products, which create a strong bias toward panic creation and support.

[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] E90 Commie:
Regarding RAM consumption on the latest build: It is normal on my device. No difference from older builds.

My recommendation is to install an app such as System Tuner and disable unnecessary autostarting apps (this is a common reason for low memory levels). The only things I keep in autostart are mostly messaging apps and a few system ones. There's no reason to have a lot of apps there since they tend to drain resources.

Okay, suddenly there is new official RR maintainer, so I guess my work is done here. I don't want to provide unofficial builds if there is an official build available, so I will switch to an other ROM. Maybe PureNexus with same frequent OTA updates and of course nijel8's base, but I'm not sure yet. There are so many great roms so lets see :)

Thanks to all users so far, I'll be back in a few days :)

I'm not sure yet. I will think about it will be back in a few days.

No one is forbidden to rom. You do well, everyone is still supportive. As Nijel8 rom is OK
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] k4rn8g3:
Yeah..

But in case someone wants to remove the system launchers and use nova as a system app and still get root permission..

Paste it in system/app not in system/priv-app
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Davehimself:
Yes, of course it's not forbidden. But I think there is no need for 3 RR roms. 1 official and 2 unofficial. I will switch to something that is missing for the Mi Max to support other dev teams, introduce their work and give the community something new. I have only seen one XOSP rom so far on xda for the MI MAX and this one seems to be dead too now. XOSP nijel8 based with frequent update support sounds good :cool:

[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] nijel8:
If I may suggest Nytrogen. It was very popular here when was active, great kenzo support so shouldn't take much to get it perfectly working on hydrogen/helium, well maintained, AOSP based(something different).

Yes, the only reason not to use pure nexus for me was Volte wasn't working on helium but if you use [MENTION=4399618]nijel8[/MENTION] 's base to build it there's no doubt that it'd work. Please take pure nexus into consideration. Thank you

Mi max helium nijel8's LineageOS

+1 for Paranoid ROM

nijel8's suggestion is also valid and a good option, many people here used to love marchetto96's nytrogen builds. By popular vote, I think it would be a good fight between AOSPA, Nytrogen, DU and PureNexus.

+1 for NitrogenOS! Really great ROM where you have everything you need and nothing else, and AOSP base that I prefer.

Dave, my humble request. Don't leave RR and helium. Loved this ROM so much.

Please.................
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Davehimself:
Already looked at some now.

Paranoid: it's CAF based, that means there always way behind with the android version. I want to be up to date with my rom.

XOSP: Only official roms can use their OTA app, so I don't want to be bad and hack it for my unofficial usage. If they don't want that, I respect it.

Nitrogen: They are on 7.1.2_r33 and there github is full of frequent updates, that's great! The only thing is, it realy looks the same like lineageOS, so do you guys really need it ?

purenexus: Pure Google is something I really like and I know the ROM was always noticable fast once I tried a few builds here a few month ago. Unfortunately I had to switch cause like always on xda there was just one build and dev disappeared after it.

Of course I will keep on supporting BOTH versions, helium and hydrogen and you may expect the same effort you already know from my side.

I will keep on reading and searching a bit more until I make my decision and I hope I can adapt nijel8's base to AOSP too. Never tried that until now.

If you like, you can give me more suggestions what ROM you would like to have for your MI MAX.

...and, sorry, but RR will not be supported anymore. We don't need 3 RR roms. One official for BOTH devices, 1 from chriscarver and one from me. I would call this wasted energy that could be invested for something more usefull. Lets just support other great dev teams with using their roms :)
[Xiaomi Mi Max ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] mandarthedon19@gmail.com:
I understand Dave. I think PureNexus and Nitrogen OS would be good options to try and I am confident you can make awesome ROM with them also.
