Hey Again,

Fresh install. All works great and it seems more responsive as I was getting lock screen lag which has now gone.

I've noticed 2 things...

Google Camera from Play Store doesn't work

Reddit Official App crashes on launch.

Other than that it's smooth like butter. Looking forward to RR build or Oreo depending which you do next haha.

You guys got a PayPal account for donations? Would love to but you a John some beers.

Cheers

Bryan

Has battery life improved now it's no longer using the pre-built kernel?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] bryjenko:
I'll keep you posted. Yet to have a normal day... Spent whole day on charge in car using Google maps.

You have to enable Camera2 API.

Open build.prop, make string 'persist.camera.HAL3.enabled=1' , save, reboot.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Andy4Shurr:
I've just flashed it to see as well. I didn't get any gapps problems after flashing it. What was the issue you had?

Edit: Battery seems to be about the same, there's no noticeable difference so far. I'm getting about 4 hours on screen LTE throughout the day. Mixed usage.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] josef27:
Would it also be possible to provide a current build for the Goodix fingerprint sensor with all changes made in the last days?

I also have the mentioned soft reboots.

thank you in advance.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] bryjenko:
Look up... The answers are all in the posts. There was a fix for soft reboots and the sensor.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Arasthel:
You could actually just edit the build.prop. Search for:

ro.boot.fingerprint=fpc

And change it to:

ro.boot.fingerprint=goodix

Then, reboot.

Also, I made another build to try to automatically detect the sensor. It works with FPC, could you test if it works with Goodix, too? Link
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] apokit:
Arasthel could you please upload and a RR rom with the latest fixes?

I'm honestly getting ready to dump this phone... Even the official ROM's have problems. They touted all of these "advanced sound and mic features" which even on the official builds people are still having unresolved issues: see here http://en.miui.com/thread-1029859-1-1.html

My initial thought to remedy the low mic recording issues in messengers like FB messenger, snapchat, etc, was to look at what the values were in the xml files for the official builds (EU, Global, etc). But then I find that thread and realize everyone is having the same problems there.

It's a nice phone, great hardware, but new tech + low adoption (and inevitably thus low developer support) are a recipe for headaches. The multiple mics and their DAC system, the sound system being tied to the proximity sensor, all of these mixer files being odd territory, it's just all a headache that makes me want to go back to my "simpler" older working phone.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Jayz2K:
It's really ennoying seeing all those comments about getting rid of the MIX 2 because of roms bugs, dev support, etc.

Honestly this is dev threads and feelings or moods have nothing to do here.

Even if it's understandable, it's just about personal appreciation and really doesn't motivate devs to go further in their work. Neither for potential buyers to increase our community.

In my opinion, it's a device that got pretty stable roms really quick. For my personal use, bugs reported are not an issue and future sources will allow to fix them all. It's not like being stuck with a HUAWEI phone and forced to use EMUI or variants.

I encourage devs here to continue their hard work because they have to know that even if their not plenty of a "YEAH" posts everyday, I'm sure many followers here are patiently and gratefully waiting for updates.

Keep it up guys !

I can not agree more on this matter! Why did the haters buy the phone in the first place?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] cultofluna:
I can partial agree with you ..mix 2 is a great phone but development sucks.....

Look at OP5T ..

Just released and they are 4 custom kernels & first Oreo ROMs already dropped...!!....

I would really love to buy this phone but when I'm visiting this forum getting disappointed....
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] hondajohn88:
The biggest issues we have to get past is volte/WiFi calling, and for my builds also proximity sensor. [MENTION=2252544]Arasthel[/MENTION] has been able to build xenonhd & RR with working proximity sensor, so things are getting better for this phone. Xiaomi has not released the official kernel source yet, so that may be part of the problem.

I've built an AOKP rom as well, but same non-functioning items as my xenonhd. Both are very stable builds, but without working proximity sensor, I don't really want to release any new roms or updates.

I wish things would progress faster, but at the moment it's pretty frustrating for me. Hopefully something positive will happen soon.

I do thank all of you for your encouragement, and I also understand your disappointment. :good:
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] apokit:
Where can we find RR with working proximity sensor.....
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Jayz2K:
Comparing 1+ and Xiaomi is, from a development point of view ... a mistake. They totally have a different marketing targets. Like Sony, 1+ is close to the community and consider benefits from this (sales and dev). Xiaomi promote IMUI to sell their own ecosystem (apps, connected devices, etc.). I really doubt until then they were interrested that much in alternative roms. I Say until then because of their international development plan. Proof with the MI A1 that things are going to change. But I'm fine with roms available now and stability. To be honest, I come from a Huawei Mate and you should see how quite it is there.

[MENTION=5372388]hondajohn88[/MENTION] : I was asking myself if (since Chiron share sources with Sagit) something can be done with available roms there. Lineage 15 being already available for MI6… can this be ported to our MIX2 ?

But considering It's just launched 3 months ago n it shares same chipset to phones which have better development,,, let's hope to see some ports.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Andy4Shurr:
What you and other developers have managed to do without kernel source is pretty impressive and there are many who appreciate all the effort (myself Included). What was released a few weeks ago, was that not full kernel source?

The mi6 has a decent enough selection of near perfect ROMs since source has been released so I'm hoping once they are released for this it will be similar. The one thing I'm hoping will improve when this happens is battery life, I get around 2 hours more when in time using miui than stock atm. Is a big difference.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] hondajohn88:
Thank you for the kind compliments. The kernel source released was specifically for sagit (mi 6?) But included some new commits for Chiron. Unfortunately not 100%, but getting there.

On the good news front, I finally got my builds with working proximity sensor. I have an AOKP build working now & and an currently building XenonHD and will test that later this afternoon.

Both ROMs should be posted later this afternoon, then I can start looking at volte & WiFi calling.

Thanks again ?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] nima0003:
This is great news, I'm coming from a G6 and i have 12 hours left before I can unlock my Mi Mix, I would love to start helping with development asap. Just let me know how I can help, running builds, testing beta, etc. :)

Hi, l am a chinese user. Your rom is excellent, but many users says alipay app can not link to internet in your rom. And l find this is a common issue in most of the XenonHD roms. Alipay is a app which has billions of users in China. I hope you can help us to solve this problem. You can dowload Alipay from palystore.

Thank you very much.

I need to update the op, but I'll be out of town for the next few days, so no time to do that at the moment.

Working proximity & Bluetooth audio, maybe some Bluetooth sharing issues, but those might be resolved once I get back into town.

Could you enable by default the camera api 2.0?? I want to use the app Camera HDR+ but I don't know how to enable this:confused:

And another question is what is the difference between Xenon HD and the AOKP rom?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Achi92131:
Regarding api 2.0. Just download the magisk Camera2API Enabler module. Then HDR+ will work !

---------- Post added at 10:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:52 AM ----------

First many thanks for your great work ! I use the XenonHD rom as a daily driver and I am very happy with it. Just one thing I ascertained with the latest version. The Mac Address issue still exists (always changing Mac Address). This problem was fixed in Arasthel release. As well it would be nice to have latest security updates. But no need to rush, I wish you and your family very Merry Christmas :)

In a post up a few, I added some lines to paste into the build. prop. Sorry about forgetting that :eek:

AOKP has a few different customizations, some different implementations of other customizations, is smooth like xenon. I can't seem to get dt2w working in it yet, but wave to wake works (sometimes though seems to stop every once in a while... Possibly still buggy proximity? )

I like both roms, and right now using aokp to see what works & what doesn't & other behavior.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] wyzga:
[MENTION=5372388]hondajohn88[/MENTION] I noticed strange issue. When I'm receiving call I can't hear anything for first 2-3 secs and the person I'am talking with also can't hear me. Everything is OK when I'm calling. Also sometimes I get soft reboot during call. I use Google Dialer by the way.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] hondajohn88:
Is that in xenon or aokp?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] wyzga:
XenonHD
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] hondajohn88:
I've definitely noticed some weird behavior with the proximity sensor, and the behavior is slightly different in aokp and xenon.

Both have issues, and we'll need to sort those out. I need to loan up rr and compare that as well so i can get a baseline for behavior.

The proximity sensor in these builds use am open source code, so there's likely compatibility issues with it that needs to be sorted out. In truly hoping that actual mix 2 kernel source will help make the proximity sensor work right.

In the mean time, bugs will need to be squashed.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] apokit:
On the 04/12 built from arasthel I don't see problems with proximity...in the changelog I see that he add some more commits for proximity in that built.....maybe you can ask him....
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] wyzga:
I suspected proximity sensor, because it happens only when my phone is close to ear.

I got a Sony WH-1000XM2 as Christmas present :) APTX HD bluetooth connection is just stuttering - does anybody have the same issue with APTX HD? I am using the 171026-ROM.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] hondajohn88:
One of the things I find fascinating is the different use cases and such that other people use their phones in. Seeing all these different uses, it helps me understand better all of the stuff I need to pay attention to when building/fixing roms.

Some of these issues are way beyond my expertise, but forces me to research and learn (or try to learn). One of the things I've learned is that I use my phone in a relatively basic manner.

So, all of my rambling aside, how does one select a different Bluetooth connection, such as APTX HD?

I'm connected to my new LG CM4550, but I don't know what type of Bluetooth conection it's using. Whichever one it is, there is no skipping or stuttering. I'm using a AOKP build I made 12/23, (https://drive.google.com/file/d/154laROjEE8TBR4NZOtvnsX73brFHkyUc/view?usp=drivesdk) and I'll make a xenon build today or tomorrow with any updates that are in AOKP.

But, please let me know how to select a different Bluetooth connection app I can test that for you.

Sorry for the long blah blah blah lol

What changes does the new built brings?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Planet X:
I have flashed the build from 4th of December made by [MENTION=2252544]Arasthel[/MENTION] yesterday evening and have experienced no reboot until today. Even proximity sensor is working. I hope that your new build will be stable for me as well. Are you also update the sources with the latest commits? Merry Christmas.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] stroke55:
Thanks for your quick reply :) The connection is established by the Sony headphones app (Sony Headphones. You can select between quality (APTX HD) and stability (SBC). The SBC connection works fine, but APTX HD is stuttering. I also tried to connect manually but I also did not find a way to select between different connection types.

It might be also a general problem - there are two other threads here on XDA with the same issue in MIUI: XDA1, XDA2
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] rush_art:
Sorry if I missed this, but does this rom/kernel support fast charging/quick charge 3.0? It felt slower than the stock MIUI but I wanted to make sure.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Vennesch:
Awesome! Why don't you make a dedicated AOKP thread? My guess is that more people will be interested but now they have to fortunately stumble upon your reply. Keep up the good work!
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Planet X:
I have just tested your AOKP build and it has really great features . But I had an unexpected reboot again with that build too . Also DT2W doesn't work. So I did restore my backup of the XenonHD build from 4th of december. That build is stable.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] pegasus21:
Supposedly Arasthel's first version after the proximity sensor was implemented had the reboot issue. After looking into it, he found that the reboots were caused by the ultra sound for the proximity being played while some other app was trying to play some audio. He then added more checks for that and it does not seem to be rebooting anymore.

Is this check also in hondajohn88's version?

[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Planet X:
I'm using the one from 4th of December and it's working great. Only the camera could be better. I have no problems with it. With the latest builds from last week I have had a lot of reboots.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] hondajohn88:
I have a new build with [MENTION=2252544]Arasthel[/MENTION] soft boot fix. Also, as an experiment, I enabled the fingerprint sensor to be used as a gone button. The fingerprint sensor can still be used as an actual fingerprint sensor.

I've been trying to get it so the fingerprint sensor as home button can be toggled on or off, but so far no bueno.

I think I'll post two builds, one with & one without.

I'll update the op and send out another post when I get this build posted. Should be about 30 minutes.

I may give up on aokp for the moment... It's a nice ROM but doesn't seem as stable as xenon. I may give it one more go, but I'd it doesn't cooperate I'll hang it up for a while.

Until then, give xenon another try & give me feedback on the proximity & soft boots. Hopefully it's fixed. And I'll tackle volte next.

If I have to nitpick. Scrolling feels quite a bit less smooth than with the Global MIUI ROM. Everything else feels so much better :)
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] hondajohn88:
Nitpicking is fine... :) Is there any specific app that scrolling seems less smooth, or is it system wide?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Firipu:
System wide. Noticed it first in the settings. But also in Reddit Sync and facebook. I have the impression it stutters a tiny bit.

(another error. in the standard google camera app: It crashes to homescreen when you tap slow-motion. All other camera functions appear to work)
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] hondajohn88:
Ah, ok. I'm not sure I can fix the scrolling, but I'll see if there's something I can drag in from AOKP (since they have an option to force more scrolling cache).

As far as the google camera app, that is definitely something I can't fix since I don't have the source code. But, I think I did see a git repo that had some google camera source code(??) so I'll try to find that and see if there's anything I can do with, or take from that. That may be one of the things that's way beyond my intelligence, but I'll see what I can dig up.

Edit: It seems aokp uses the same code for cache as XenonHD, so Hmmm.... the plot thickens...

Thanks for the feedback :good:
