Nonsense again.

1) I haven't said that I can delete the files or of my old firmware (But I can do anyways, just use your twrp file manager).

Flashing new firmware zips do get rid of what was there previously so no minus points for me on that (but huge minus points for you because of you're downloading whole miui package and flashing that just for new firmware).

Also putting that "even" before saying formatting data makes no sense hence, formatting data doesn't mean to wipe and format any partitions other than data itself.

2) Moving on to the remaining nonsense. Yes, I flash new firmwares from time to time but not when it's not needed. I mostly prefer the recommended firmware version by the rom developer/maintainer as using newer firmwares won't have any benefits over the version that's used to compile the rom anyways. Also those can be with their own problems so no logic on updating when it won't add any benefits.

Also your adding "flash addons" step to me but not also yourself doesn't make any sense as first it's an optional part and has nothing to do with all the "keeping firmware up to date" thing and second, it's so clear that you've put that there just because of you're behaving emotional, illogical and you've lost your mind because of someone said that you're doing not required things to achieve a more simple goal. So again huge minus points for you and no minuses for me either.

It's clear that you have no idea about what modular development is hence, you're doing what "just works" and "it's meant to be working" things to achieve your goals (but I can't blame you on this because it's logical that doing something that's proven to work in a situation that you have no clue about - that's an instinctive behavior).

And no my time isn't that worthless to spend it with arguing you but I'm doing this for 2 reasons: Firstly if other newbies read what you've written they'll most likely to believe what you've written and that's bad for them as it's not written by someone that knows the details on the topic; and secondly I'm also hoping to get your attention on what are you missing so you can learn too.

So my words are completely without any emotional prejudice that leads to confusion and misunderstandings on such an inhuman topic.

Talk after thinking and researching.

I think twitter should decrease the 280 characters limit back to 140 or even 70 as we have so much people like you that aren't able to read the whole damn thing and get the idea of it. If it's too much for you to understand it all by reading it for once, then take a break for a moment and continue from where you've missed the track.

Also I've clearly stated that replying to your comment wasn't to keep arguing with you for nothing, but at least informing the other newbies on there's something wrong/not needed stated and they aren't have to to the same to achieve the same simple goal: "Updating the firmware". This is for the last time and I won't say anything further on this sh¡t unless somebody else asks to learn more.

I installed the TWRP 3.2.2 - shev-t update.

Now when I download the latest update with lineage os downloader and install it will boot twrp and ask for allowing modifications.

When I swipe allow modifications nothing happens.

edit: fixed with downloading the rom and do it manually.

But now magisk doensn't work.

Do I need to reinstall magisk? It said it didn't installed.

edit2: nvm, found the modified magisk (https://github.com/Jerry981028/Magisk)

Magisk

Maybe dumb question, but should i uninstall Magisk before applying latest update? And then install the modified version after first boot?
[Xiaomi Mi 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Dobsgw:
Your method is absolutely fine so don't worry.

However it is true that you are essentially wasting 2gb of your data and storage by doing it because all you need is the files that we are already getting in the firmware packages in the ROM section of XDA.

However it is absolutely your preference and if it makes you feel that things are more stable then keep doing it.

As you said the speeds are so high it doesn't impact much.

In terms of raw efficiency it's just a crap method :p

But I mean that only for efficiency because it is fine to flash just the firmware and then LOS or to flash the whole MIUI package and then LOS (LOS overwrites system and thus gives you the ROM you want).

So no one needs to attack anyone.

It needs to be understood that any method used is fine as long as the user is comfortable :)

---------- Post added at 09:54 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:53 AM ----------

You can do so if you want to. On the official thread users are doing it.

It also works equally well to just update, but I had to uninstall magisk manager, then update, then turn off and turn on magisk hide several times to get pass on safteynet
[Xiaomi Mi 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Shimizux:
Well well well. I've been seeking for the answer for my question. But didn't get any. All i want to know is hows the performance on the latest 07/10 build? Any differences from the last build? Is it worth upgrading? [Im using stable Mokee7.1 atm] Does the latest build came up with new Kernel?
[Xiaomi Mi 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] bugfix2k:
Thanks! I chose the way to uninstall Magisk first and then in with the new stuff. Worked great! :)

Now running latest build with Magisk 16.6 and passing SafetyNet :good:

Another question though. I have been dirty flashing since the official release and a couple of builds ago Cozzmy13 included persist.camera.HAL3.enabled=1 in build.prop. I've checked the latest build and it is indeed there in vendor/build.prop. However, when I try to run Arnova GCAM it just keeps crashing - I've doublechecked that it has all permissions.

Downloaded Camera2 Probe from Play store and under Hardware Level Support Category the only one green is 'Legacy'. Level_3 is not enabled/supported.

Do I have to enable something else to be able to use GCAM?

I've tried this (flashing the firmware, then flashing shev's TWRP image, then the ROM, tried both dirty and clean flashes) and the problem with the screen not waking up persists. I've rolled back to the previous version for now, I will investigate when I have the time and post back here with my findings.
[Xiaomi Mi 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] srafaels:
I installed the last version without follow the steps posted ago. The LOS seems to be installed well, but the Magisk doesn't work. All I have to do is install the 3.2.2 twrp, the special magisk and the latest firmware, or should I do any wipe/factory reset after all?

Strange ... the really weird thing is: After first boot of the setup listed below I still had that same problem which already made me think: Nah, didn't work.

But then I managed to get the device to turn on once (short press power button) and that was the only time I had this problem last night. Have been using it the whole day without any issues.

Ah yes, I forgot to mention that. No more adding 'HAL3.enabled' to build.prop, yay! GCam is working for me, here are the three last versions I tried:

* Arnova's v8: GoogleCamera-Pixel2Mod-Arnova8G2-V8.apk -- works but needs to be set to 9 MP for the back cam, slowmo seems to work (at least the option didn't force close the app) -- not using this version due to the 9 MP limitation

* MGC_5.3.015_4.apk - takes greyscale photos (WTF?), the _1 version worked just fine, though. I personally just can't go with an older version if a newer one is available ...

* GCam_5.3.015-Pixel3Mod-Arnova8G2-v4Beta1.apk -- great so far! 12 MP, no face-boxes though (despite the setting), slow mo force closes but the whole "slow motion" menu entry can be removed via settings

So that's an OK combination for me right now: GCam_5.3.015 for everything (shortcut to dual-power for everyday use) and the LOS default cam for slow-mo.

Flashed the latest update (lineage-15.1-20180710) with Shev-T TWRP and Magisk is not working. After the Magisk addon.d flashed and rebooted the phone keeps bootloop. And I tried flash the boot.img contained in the latest Lineage zip package and it boots successfull WITHOUT Magisk.

Why is this happening? Just can't live without Magisk. I temporarily flashed the DanWard Magisk 16.4 and it works fine on the latest Lineage. Is it because that the latest Lineage for Mi 6 is a Treble-enabled version?

Thanks! :good::good:

Alarm clock does not play music

I just got a Xiaomi MI6, pulled off MIUI and installed the latest Lineage 15.1 build (lineage-15.1-20180710-nightly-sagit-signed) and rooted.

I set up several alarms to go off and picked a few of my favorite songs for them to play. I get the default alarm tone, but no songs. Just now I double checked and sure enough the songs are listed in each alarm.

My old phone is a Xiaomi MI4 running recent Lineage 14.1. The alarms play my selected songs.

I had issues with gapps-arm64-8.1-nano crashing all the time in Lineage 15.1. I then discovered that Open Gapps or MindTheGapps works and so I'm using MindTheGapps-8.1.0-arm64-20180610_024023 right now.

I just noticed that there's open_gapps-arm64-8.1-nano-20180705. Maybe the new opengapps will fix the no music issues?

Any ideas what's keeping music alarms from working?

Is this a bug in Lineage or in MindTheGapps?

I just did 2 things. I swapped over to open_gapps-arm64-8.1-nano-20180705 after backing up my current set up. I also noticed that clock had no permissions to access storage. Maybe that was all it needed?
