Hy [MENTION=7500669]TingyiChen[/MENTION], I'm happy to see you again here. May I ask you whether you're aware of the fingerprint issue I talked about here and here?

There's also this issue about Android Auto.

Looks like another santoni unofficial Lineage solved the first issue.

I'm available to share any logcat you may need, please let us know more about that :)

Can someone explain to me what force encryption is? You need a fix to install the rom because it's encrypted? Or simply after the installation the phone is encrypted and you need to set a password? Thanks is advance
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] phreakenstein:
After you install the ROM, it will automatically encrypt your /data partition with your password, which will be asked on every reboot. Other than that, no intervention from your part should be necessary. You will require a recovery that can decrypt /data, link to which can be found in previous comments.
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] brcr:
Thank you. Can i normally install gapps and magisk after the rom installation?
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] phreakenstein:
Yes. Reboot to recovery, factory reset, flash ROM, gapps, magisk, reboot.

Next time, read OP.

I'm still experiencing this. Actually, the battery drains rapidly as soon as there are saved WiFi networks. When I'm without WiFi coverage, the battery loses a couple of percent per hour, even if I turn WiFi off. It stops as soon as I delete the saved networks. GSam says the drain comes from the kernel, it keeps the phone awake constantly.

I've tried updating the firmware, but nothing changed. I don't have Gapps nor Microg. Has anyone experienced anything similar? It's hard to miss it.
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] gogyly:
Go to security, location, scanning and turn of Wi-Fi scanning. It should improve your battery life.

Notification Light

Thanks for excellent ROM!

I am testing lineage-15.1-20181106-microG-santoni where notification light does not work at all. Is it a common problem? Has it something to do with the LineageOS for microG fork maybe?
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] thearco:
Thanks, I might try that.

I'm a bit puzzled though. My experience so far with official LineageOS builds for other phones is that you follow the instructions and things pretty much work out of the box. In this case, we need a custom recovery (official TWRP won't cut it because it can't decrypt the data for some reason), and also a custom kernel and some other patches. It gets as messy as any unofficial build out there.
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Usman Mughal:
Hi, Guy's I know You Love to use Official Builds like LOS,AEX,Mooke and also Luis latest Builds Too.

In Official Builds we are facing one issue If we Install Dolby Atmos Module it give us Bootloop.

So, i did some dig up and see where is the problem so i created a patch for it but i don't know what would happend if dolby atmos break the volte sorry guy's my country doesn't have volte so i can't test it. But i did work from Dolby scripts and swapnil sir final build i hope this won't break a volte for official builds.

This Patch included Fix For Force Encryption and Dolby Bootloop Issue we are facing so we can flash Dolby Atmos Module and Enjoy it.

Method For Installing this Patch.

1) Flash Force Encrypted ROM (Official One) or Luis Latest Build Unofficial

2) Flash Custom Kernel any You Would Like (Optional)

3) Flash Patch For Official Builds zip (In Attachment You can Found)

4) Flash OpenGapps. (Which One You Like)

5) Magisk

6) Reboot

If user's want patch without removing force encryption just message me here or tag me i will create that too.

Bugs:

1. Screen won't shut down after getting notification (except Facebook and Messaging app).

2. Proximity sensor can't detect that phone is in pocket, so after getting notification, screen is lighting up and can't be shutted down automatically.

3. Sometimes a fingerprint scanner action is delayed. Maybe it's an Ambient Display fault.

audio recording clipping

Actually even with Easy voice Recorder you can see that the input signal is clipping whilst recording if the audio source is loud.

It is a software problem, i've read that some attempts have been made on the mixerpath file (i'm no expert) but without much luck, for example on the miui rom.

What happens is that the when you record a sound (no matter if using the audio recorder or making a video) that is loud (for example at a gig) the soundwave is not automatically normalized and so the audio source get recorder whilst clipping, like there is no noise gate or a compressor that lower the input gain of the phone mic in order to record a soundwave that does not clip.

I hope this explains better the issue.

Hopefully someone can look into it and get it sorted on the lineage rom.

thanks

Gif playing is broken.

In most apps gifs can't play properly. Only the first frames play and then it gets stuck.

It only works on brave and the stock gallery, but on every other app it is broken.

This didn't happen in MIUI so it must be a bug in this Rom I think.

Please review your apps because this OS is superb in terms of economic battery usage. Also consider LineageOS for microG instead of gapps/GSF which is known for excessive battery drain. I attached my battery log from lineage-15.1-20181106-microG-santoni with estimated usage of 18 days (airplane mode - never, data off, GSM/LTE on), I use this particular device only for photos, offline maps, calls and SMS.

Battery drain

Thank you very much for the feedback.

18 days usage is just incredible!

I don't see myself as a heavy user, I very seldom make calls. The only non-standard apps I have installed are Chrome, Signal, Whatsapp and Twitter. I don't even use Youtube or Maps.

Is there any simple way to remove Gapps, or will I need to perform a complete flash of the phone?

Battery drain

Which batter performance profile do you use to get this duration of usage ?
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] k23m:
I use the balanced profile and data saver on. Here is an updated battery log attached, where the small disturbance was caused by a brief installation and test of official lineage with gapps - I restored microG from recovery later. I had to check the notification light, it just does not work, perhaps it's my firmware version issue? Does the light work for you? :confused:

Such insane battery life is astonishing, how do you use your device, is it just lying unused most of the time? And what kernel?
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] k23m:
Can you please quote your firmware and lineage version numbers?

Stock kernel, mild use as I have a couple of phones, more details in this post. So either install official lineage without gapps or unofficial with microG. The first option is not as bad as you think, there are many FOSS alternatives and most sideloaded APKs work just fine. Some games complain about missing GSF but work anyway. I suppose the battery draining Facebook app would not work but you can access your account from a browser. Signal works fine without GSF/GCM, it's the main app I care about. As for the second option, read about LineageOS for microG on their website.

Thank you for the response.

My problem right now is that my phone is encrypted with the LOS 15.1 install and that I cannot mount my internal storage...

I disabled my OS security key and re-flashed TWRP and still get the decryption password prompt which I cannot remember what I set it as or even if I did with the initial install.
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] natheux:
You have to search Dm verity disabler or something like that or :

Connect your phone to your computer, boot to TWRP and enable mtp if it's not already enabled. Copy all you data to your computer and when it's done, go to wipe->format data and type "yes", reboot to recovery, wipe system,cache,dalvik. Copy lineage15.1.zip from your pc to your phone and flash it, now your phone isn't encrypted anymore

Hi.. I just install this rom using standard procedure (with gapps) but seems you delete gapps, any reason why ? I am very new for something like this (change rom, root, etc..) thanks.
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] k23m:
Hi, strictly speaking you can't (easily) delete gapps (+GSF), I just do not install them in the first place for the following reasons:

much better battery life

less mobile data usage

privacy (no google spyware)

less app junk on my phone

proprietary, closed source google apps

As you can see on the attachment my battery lasted almost 18 days, partly because I have no google junk at all. You can either wipe and install this lineage without gapps, or install the microG version which is pretty compatible with gapps but without the overhead and spyware. Please read more on LineageOS for microG and on The NO GAPPS Initiative websites. Good luck...

:good:
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Sikatepp:
Thank you for your prompt reply.

I just go to the website you mentioned, and come to concl seems i am still not ready to lose google play hahaha.. I just a common user.. But that 18 days battery life is really something!

18 days??? That much??? Is this real??

My phone can last 2 days on stock ROM.

A part from the huge advantage of getting rid of the spyware, this battery improvement worth it alone to give it a try.

So, personally the really important questions for me are:

- what about Google Maps? I *really* need it and won't even think about this switch if maps can't work. But reading your links, it seems that maps can be used.

- does magisk work that way?

Thank you.
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] ferdeboer:
Hi. Thank you so much for this rom. It works great for me... except for charging.

I installed it recently and charging behaved normally. But after the last OTA it doesn't charge while on or off, only while on TWRP. I've tried several cables and chargers and, as I said, it charged well right before the OTA and charges in Recovery mode. The charging symbol appears in the nav bar, but it doesn't really charge. It doesn't discharge either, though. It doesn't show "charging" in battery menu or lock screen either. Looking around for a solution I saw that in developer options I wasn't able to put the USB mode in "Charging" unless usb debugging is activated but, even with it activated, it allows me to select charging in developer options, but still doesn't charge.

Thanks.
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] natheux:
What is your firmware version ? I don't have these problems but I remember I had them on another rom (RR, a few month ago) but it was a firmware-related issue.

18 days but with a lot of idle :cool:

The best way to get rid of google apps is to install the system first (LineageOS, LineageOS for microg (with microg already packed inside), or other roms such as AEX, RR, Havoc, etc)

After that, install latest Magisk and Nanodroid (a simple full systemless microG package to don't have any problems with spoofing signature in some roms, get the real play store and other google apps such as Maps working without the real Google Play Services that eating your device's resources, etc), or make sure your rom support signature spoofing (if not, patch it manually) install microg and other packages to get Google Maps (search shadow53's website for tutorials).

It requires time to get a fully microG installation working because this type of installation is not "usual". So, take your time if you try and it will be okay ;)

---------- Post added at 01:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:22 PM ----------

Downgrade to the previous version and make sure you have the latest firmware installed. Also, wipe cache and dalvik

Thanks. I'm going to try this options... what firmware is the recommended for this rom? I didn't install anything apart from it. Before I had the MIUI global beta.
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] natheux:
Weird, your firmware seems to be okay... Another solution is to backup your rom, flash via fastboot method the latest miui beta version, then reflash lineage + restore your backup

I recommend v45 or v46 which are the latest. So, if you had miui global beta, I think you've got v45 or v46
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] k23m:
If you're constantly engaged with your phone then microG/no-gapps/FOSS setup will not help you as much, but if you "experience around 10% battery usage over a roughly 8 hour period" at night on airplane mode like that user, then this is the way to fix it. I use Google maps only on PC, but on Android we have a number of free, offline maps apps, like eg MAPS.ME. You can download entire Europe in a few gigs via wifi for offline use and never need to rely on mobile data connection to access google maps anymore, and often OpenStreetMap based maps are much more detailed than Google. Yes, Magisk does work, but there is no need to use it since Lineage provides a native root solution (activate it in the developer options).

:good:
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] ferdeboer:
So... back to my no charging problem. It's weird, because downgrading to the previous version that didn't have that problem didn't solve it. It continued not charging. The only method I found to make it work again was going back to MIUI, then reinstall Lineage (the latest, the one that didn't charge) and now it's charging :victory:. So maybe the problem is when updating the ROM and not the ROM itself? I'm confused, but won't make any more tests for now, as I've already spent a lot of time today and it's working. Maybe next time... but I won't update in a while. : :D :angel:

Thanks for the help!
