My phone aggressively kill any background app. If I jump back to previous app, it will took longer to start because it loads back the app. Frustrated when I need to read messaging (get TAC banking number) and jump back to banking app and the banking app reload again.

Im using global device, 2.025 TWRP!!(Important) patch and gcam 6.2.024 v2.1 from telegram. Everything works, even front camera. No black pics, no unsaved photos etc. It works perfectly, no need for 2 gcams.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] Erpe7:
Got it. I'll try again maybe.

But I remember using this gcam once when it worked, pictures quality wasn't as good IMHO as the two combined I have.

Cheers for your feedback.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] Plekst:
Cant comment about quality, for me its better than stock camera, so thats enough. Also not having to use 2 different cameras is a big plus for me. Just important, for front camera to work correctly, have to turn on advanced camera settings, and turn off sabre, and choose nexus 5x 2016 config for front camera. After this, no bugs, works everytime. Also patch has to be TWRP version 2.025, magisk version gets buggy after restart or if camera app is killed, thats why twrp patch is better.

Why use two apps when with one you do everything and with more possibilities to set the best? I use Edge Gesture, bottom Swipe on, home, long press recente, left and right Swipe back, long press on left last app, You can choose where to place Swipe areas and how wide they should be, and when you use a tap you can disable the area for once so as not to interfere when you need to use it for the open application at that time...

Ok... :)

Installed it with parameters you recommanded. Works perfectly. No p ;)

I took pictures with this new one and with the others.

For know I'm on plain sun so I can't compare which one is the best for quality. But...

I noticed that the pictures taken with this new one are so much smaller and compressed than the others. Once I can check I doubt quality will be better.

I could give a small feedback if someone is interested.

PS: I noticed that there is no option to choose for exemple "100% quality" or "higher quality" such things. Why is that? That's too bad.

Is anybody else a bit confused about the latest update? I mean absolutely no disrespect to the developer, but isn't this supposed to be a Pixel replica? The latest update adds a network traffic monitor, and replaces Night Shift with Lineage's LiveDisplay. Both of these features are not in Pixel's, and I'm a bit baffled with the latest additions. Now sure, additional features are nice, but that's not exactly the point of this ROM is it?

If anybody has any wisdom to share regarding this, I'll gladly hear it.

Everyone is searching for the stable rom with minimum customizations (Even me)

But PE didn't have any customisations but much stable than any other rom

So the dev is adding some features

So more can use this rom

By the way

When they are providing more features for us

Who says no;)
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] Erpe7:
I don't doubt about it and for sure, AOSP + EAS Purecoffee ain't meant for great/full performance. On the contrary, both of these version are meant to have a cool experience, for non player users (like me ^^) so no pubg on my phone and most important (to me): great battery life.

Please if someone can correct me but IMHO that's the point of having such "combo".

Hope it helps.

I always made small backups, never had to make clean install. If OTA ain't working, just updated through TWRP like OTA does and never had any issues...

I changed let say... Last week to Icecold kernel but quick soon I came back to Purecoffee.

Hi guys!

Lately OTA in-built system hasn't been working for me (I'm on AOSP), so I'm just dirty flashing every new update manually via TWRP.

Today, the OTA started working again and downloaded the updated ROM just fine by itself; however it wouldn't start the update automatically, so again I went into TWRP and dirty-flashed it manually. After that, I noticed I had an older version of TWRP (3.2.3.2) because the new 3.3.0.0 is now available and I figured out that was the reason for the update not starting automatically; so I flashed the new TWRP and everything is working just fine.

TWRP asked me to keep it read-only after the 3.3.0.0 flash, but of course I refused and allowed it to modify my system, otherwise I won't be able to flash any new ROM updates in the future; did I do the correct thing? Also, I've read online that if your device is rooted, you should keep TWRP read-only, but I had Magisk 19.1 (and SU access by extension) before the flash and yet I retained it even if I allowed modifications in TWRP 3.3.0.0; how is this possible?

Thanks for every answer; I've been using this custom ROM for 7 months now and it's amazing; however I'm still trying to learn how the whole modding thing works and some details are still not very clear to me.

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] :
Dear @jhenrique09

Thank you for all the time and effort you put into this ROM. I've been using Pixel Experience from the beginning of the project, and I must say it was outstanding among all other ROMs because it enabled users with limited budget to feel like they owned a Pixel device by staying as close to Google's idea of Android as possible.

With the introduction of the recent changes, the project seems to have shifted away from its initial aim. By listening to people whining to add their favorite feature, the ROM is becoming just another Frankenstein project like many other ROMs out there. People who do not seem to have understood what this project is about are already requesting to change the launcher (#8635).

As @onliner pointed out, "It is not possible to keep everyone happy" (#8637), but have you considered that many users appreciated Pixel Experience for being clean and simple? These users, like me, are very unhappy about the addition of non-Pixel features.

Pixel Experience is becoming Please Everyone, and this makes me sad :(

A possible solution to keep both kind of users could be to provide a pure build alongside a modded build.
