One night, i played an old movie file(2hr 5min long) and fell asleep while the video still playing. In the morning i saw the battery and i still got 68% remain. It really impressed me

The monster mi5 back again(at least for me)

Will try newest version next month

The only i hate about the rom that this is MIUI not AOSP

Well i can live with that ?

For me, this is the mi5 most stable oreo rom on earth

Nice MIUI 10 version!

Initially, thank you for developing this ROM!

I am trying it for the first time today and I am already using version 8.8.23. I hope it is every bit as good as i have heard :)

I have found 1 minor bugs until now.

1) The NFC quick toggle is showing as always ON, even though it is still working to turn NFC ON and OFF

Again, thank you for you work. I will be giving as much constructive and positive feedback as possible during my usage of the ROM.

Managed to achieve 2.30h of SOT with 27% battery remaining. Way better than yesterday, but still far from other users experiences (i wonder what do they do in order to do that)

Sometimes i get app notifications only after I unlock my phone, even though they aren't battery restricted and every notification is set to show up in lockscreen.
[Xiaomi Mi 5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] zephy09:
Battery and performance is indeed good! Below is my battery stats. As you can see, I use some social media app and play a little.

No other mods, just pure MiuiMs (Ps. I clean install this rom. Including internal memory).

Though it is kinda suck at multitasking. Even though I set the specific app on 'autostart' and no restriction, it still closes the app. Also I get delay notification with these settings. :rolleyes:

So far, this is the best miui based rom I've used.

On other rom, I rarely get almost 5hrs of SOT.

I had that problem on masik and eu rom. But after I clean flash miui ms the android system usage lowered also the heating issue is gone.

Do you have any modification on your device? Like kernel etc?

Try to clean flash miui ms. by clean flash means also format the internal memory
[Xiaomi Mi 5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] kinderarco:
I wiped every single partition before flashing so it shouldn't be the problem.

But the real issue here is the notifications, i can live with less battery but what if i miss important texts
[Xiaomi Mi 5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] zephy09:
You can receive sms/text messages on time. But if its the social apps like facebook, messenger and also gmail. It has a delay.

I noticed a delay notif on gmail, but if you have the stock miui email app it doesn't delay. No idea why. :eek::confused:

Edit:

I know the culprit now, for the delayed notifs. It's the built in adblock on this rom (But I'm not totally sure). Though it still has delay on gmail.

Hi there. Thanks for all your work on this project.

Is this rom has the mi account cheak?

I have an issue with that because I bought my device from second hand with lineage on it, and when I flashed the official miui rom I was locked out with a message saying that the device is connected to registered mi account and to open it I have to enter a password, but I have no way in the world to get the password, and also I don't have purchase proof because I bought it from a guy that I no longer can reach.

So I had to go back to lineage even though I really wanted to try miui rom.
[Xiaomi Mi 5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] zephy09:
All miui based rom has mi account check.

I had a similar problem with my mi4c, I had deleted the MIUI account associated with the device. I used some a "mi account unlock tool" to bypass the request for a password upon initially turning on the phone. Then, I could access the device and associate my mi4c with my current mi account. Just hit up Google and you can find the tool.

[Xiaomi Mi 5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] smart_thingup:
For SOT I think we need to consider our battery age factor. How old your battery is? Is it new or still original since first bought?

Mine is almost two years now. Is not broken but I think the battery performance will getting bad.

When I came from Nougat, I bet I can't restore app data from Titanium backup isn't it? AFAIK TB is only working restoring on same Android. (Nougat to nougat / Oreo to oreo)

From my experience, especially whatsapp and Yahoo mail app. The delayed notif for chat and incoming email is caused because restoring app and data from titanium backup.

I always re-install WhatsApp and Yahoo app to get working properly.

Have you try re-install it?

I'm not using this ROM yet, can't try by myself. But delayed notification is crucial for me before deciding to try this wonderful ROM.

Yep battery usage is kinda subjective due to every usage habit, because it has many variable to be measured. I haven't get replacement battery from the first time i bought the device back in 2016, when i can get 6hrs easily. For now, I barely got 3hrs SoT(mostly 2hrs) on another Oreo rom. Since im not a heavy user nor a heavy gamer, its quite irritating. But with this rom, the battery life improved far way better for me.

[Honor 9 Lite Questions & Answers] Houyhnhnm:
Hi guys, I've been lurking here trying to find a solution for this issue.

I got the phone yesterday, unlocked the bootloader with the HCU Client following these instructions , flashed this unofficial TWRP version using fastboot, and installed Magisk v16.0 .

Up to this point everything worked fine, but then I installed SD Maid to get rid of some google apps (Movies, Music, PlayGames) and finally the Magisk modules for Greenify and Unified Hosts Adblocker . Upon reboot, the home screen keeps blinking and doesn't load any app at all.

I can still use the apps I'd opened before rebooting with the Overview button, and start any other installed app through adb. TWRP and Fastboot are also working

Running on stock EMUI 8.0.0 LLD-L31 8.0.0.128(C432) tried to use the included system update app, which deleted all previous installed apps and settings, language preferences, google account etc, but the problem persists without having updated it at all

I also tried the Recovey Mode of the HiSuite but on Fastboot it prompts my device isn't supported, and on System it prompts that everything's working fine :eek:

How could I fix this? as I said, I still can use adb, access the bootloader and twrp

that's how it looks like now https://youtu.be/fhwovNBIzuE
[Honor 9 Lite Questions & Answers] Houyhnhnm:
By the way I just noticed that in the bootloader screen it says FRP locked. Is it important?
[Honor 9 Lite Questions & Answers] Sparkrite:
OK, first thing I would do is enable "OEM Unlock" in settings, this should change FRP to unlocked on fastboot screen.

As you are running an old build (128) I would use Huawei Firmware Finder and download the full OTA (133).

Obviously no OTA will flash by primary methods as you have non stock recovery (Recovery-Ramdisk) so I recommend using the HuRUpdater method.:-

https://xdaforums.com/honor-9/development/tool-flash-official-firmware-recovery-t3769279

This will bring you back to latest stock and you can then install Magisk or SU whichever you prefer, but I would advise not using any of the beta Magisks, too much hassle and heartache IMO, I just use full stable releases now.

BTW. On one of the V16+ betas I also had a "blinking" screen, but not on V16.0
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] bystroy:
I have bought from domestic retailer (Bulgaria) which provides Google Pixel from Austria in German Language.

That is no problem. I received the phone with German instructions, no big deal.

When I started the device I immediately updated to latest Android.

Then I noticed the battery issues. Battery drain was very fast. I mean for 20 minutes - 10%.

Will it be fixed if I buy a new battery?

NOTE: On the first boot there was not any charge in the battery. Not even for the home screen boot.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] m1n:
I would first check battery status with adb to see if there is some fault with it.

If status is ok then there have to be something else that is causing the battery drain.
