Best kernel for this rom?
[Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] B3!CrAZy:
I use Voodoo and so far so good. No major issues.

This ROM comes with Nosgoth_V4 TREBLE+.

So, you flashed Voodoo after flashing the ROM, right?

I had a plan to flash Voodoo, but not so much trouble with the default one, so ... haven't changed yet.

What's your opinion, ( I am asking for your personal opinion ) ? Should I change/flash the

Kernel

to Voodoo? Is there any

performance improvement

or any extra

benefit

?

Sometimes I get rapid battery discharge, but not always, and havn't faced any BIG trouble. So can not decided, do I really need to change the

Kernel

or not?

Thanx for a great ROM. I have ZERO issues!

Please, I didn't find how to root the Phone. Help would be highly appreciated! Thank you!

Sorry for long post but hope you guys will guide me. Here's a bit of intro on my technical knowledge.

You could say that I'm noob here but I'm trying to learn more than being a mere buy-and-use consumer.

The only flash I did on android recently was changing vendor ROM on Redmi 4 Prime to MIUI official global stable via a method that made it possible without having to unlock bootloader(yep. Even right now the phone doesn't have twrp).

Having a spare phone(Redmi 4 Prime) with mediocre software support from Xiaomi(terrible actually for the highest end of Redmi 4 variants), official 3rd party ROM seems like a wise choice.

I have a long thought about it and thinking to flash the phone with 3rd party official ROM that features OTA support for ease of mind(less hassle) AND this ROM seems tick all the boxes.

Before I do:

1) Flashing this ROM(or any other ROMs) to my device will definitely erase all the data on my phone(WhatsApp media for example), is that correct?

2) what's a clean install? Quite familiar with Windows but not so sure what does that mean on android.
[Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] servaldeneptuno:
Great ROM! Awesome performance, best of all Oreo ones.

Just one question: is there any way to disable rounded corners ? (not on screen corners, but on notifications and other UI elements)
[Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] accurian:

[Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] killerbreu:
No more updates?
[Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] psykkuno:
Good job nice to see an official ROM for markw.
[Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] kibria.mgk:
1. That's somewhat correct.

2. Clean install refers wiping major partitions including system and data before flashing a rom, quite like formatting the drive first in which you want to install Windows.

Ps, I'm not sure if this rom features OTA, despite of being official and as there is Android Pie craze incoming, development of oreo roms may very soon be discontinued.

So, I'd recommend to go with a oreo rom that's pretty stable, ignoring is it a official or not (almost all roms are unofficial).

+ Anyone having 4G connectivity problem?

RE: [MENTION=8204119]kibria.mgk[/MENTION]

(Since we both are in Dhaka) What should be the

Preferred Network Type

?

I am using GSM/WCDMA/LTE. For Airtel Network. But never can access 4G network. Is this the ROM's problem? Or Settings issue? (My friend is getting 4G in the same area, in default MIUI ROM; well, not everytime, but I never get that chance !!)

[Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] mp6519:
Hi B3!CrAZy! :)

since you tried this rom with the voodoo kernel, I wanted to ask you if you have solved the battery drain found by many users

and if you've noticed problems regarding audio recording (known problem for redmi 4 prime)

How many hours of display can you do with a full charge?

Thanks!
[Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] kibria.mgk:
I haven't used havoc oreo, so can't be sure if this is a rom side problem. 4G worked on oreo(Mdroid) rom for me, haven't tested on havoc pie.
[Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] zahinwadud:
Thought so, since your signature says "ROM: MiracleDroid".

Can you provide any review? For MiracleDroid ROM specifically for Redmi 4 Prime (markw). Any link? Preferably any video review (if possible). Since the whole project is in Russian.

I've already downloaded the latest ROM -

mdroid-1.0-UNOFFICIAL-markw-20180907-222241

.

I just need a real-life-day-to-day-usage-review.

Another thing, I really like the look & style of HAVOC ROM. Is MiracleDroid same as per design/outlook?

And I wish customization option & performance is better than any other Oreo ROM, is that right?
[Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] kibria.mgk:
You can check official Mdroid page/website for feature list, customization options. Overall it feels pretty optimized and stable rom. My reason for choosing it was consistent dev support.
[Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] zahinwadud:
Request to Devs

To [MENTION=7680322]psykkuno[/MENTION]

why! man!! why!!!

why you have stopped developing ROM for our beloved markw (heard that your device is broken; but you can ... ummm ... manage ... right? )

DoTOS 2.5 is so awesome!!! I wish I can use that on my device :(

Isn't there any chance? A little?

To [MENTION=6005091]Azrul Haifan[/MENTION]

Buddy, you are updating for all other devices except our markw. Please ...

(You haven't even changed the changelog for 23.08.2018 version yet. Well, Kernel is changed & overall stable performance with some minor glitch)

A few notable things

:

- Battery performance is average, not so good and definitely not bad. But can be improved. Some are suggesting to change the Kernel to Voodoo. Though I haven't changed yet.

- Included apps: Google Calculator, Phone/Dialer, Messaging apps & and the Launcher can't be updated through Play Store. Is it possible to link them with Play Store / updateable ?

- Free RAM: is it possible to have more free RAM? Currently it's 300MB~800MB.
[Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] zahinwadud:
Unofficial - but consistent dev support?

And is this the current version

mdroid-1.0-UNOFFICIAL-markw-20180907-222241

?
[Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] kibria.mgk:
Current version is 20180915. Yes, it's unofficial, because dev doesn't want to engage in a commitment. But he only works on this rom, so been consistent with updates and waiting for Mdroid pie build by official devd to work on. He's not gonna release other roms, according to his statement on 4pda.
[Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] Oceansoul91:
You can find Havoc based on Android 9 Pie on 4pda forum.
[Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] zahinwadud:
:) Already current version is

mdroid-1.0-UNOFFICIAL-markw-20180916-181309

You are right, frequent update. The problem, all are in Russian, kinda hard to understand.

Mdroid pie build by official devd - you mean based on Android v9.x ? Seriously?
[Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] kibria.mgk:
Yeah, there'll be Mdroid pie. The thing is to look is how quickly it gets to stable state, and if Razziell stays with markw till then.

Use chrome for reading changelog, it translates Russian well.
[Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] zahinwadud:
This updates are OTA update - right? Or do I need to flash every time?

I was reading about HAVOC OS based on Pie (from GHDev), pretty interesting! Even Razziell is working on another Pie based ROM for markw; named

Arrow OS

.
[Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] kibria.mgk:
No ota unless official.

ArrowOS may not be continued, it's not much stable, and Razziell only wants to continue single rom.
[Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] zahinwadud:
Umm ... Okay.

So, I need to flash new updates every time; or at least if I want to update.

Then why so frequent updates? What are actually fixed by Razziell? Yeah, there's a changelog, but I really didn't understand what are the fixes in that changelog, kinda "too technical" to me. Anyhow, personally asking to you, what about the

performance

, the version you are running right now. Does everything seem okay? Safe for a daily usage device? Any known (or personally you have faced) hiccups?

[MENTION=6005091]Azrul Haifan[/MENTION] is not updating for

markw

after 23.08.2018. I wonder why!! May be busy for other devices. I admit

markw

is kinda less popular & definitely an old buddy. But specs wise this device is still superb!! I still wish to have a more stable Oreo/Pie ROM for this device.

Why you are suspecting that? Okay; it could be an experimental thing. And not that of a big deal; at least to me. And have you got any chance to run

Havoc OS (PIE based) from GHDev

?

Well, I want

September Patch

& a couple of fixes here-and-there for the current HAVOC OS. Hopefully [MENTION=6005091]Azrul Haifan[/MENTION] will do something; after all it's our official ROM.

Ciao!
[Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] kibria.mgk:
I'm currently not on Mdroid. The performance was satisfactory for me. It's definitely a daily usable rom. I can't remember any issue.

I'm not suspecting, Razziell himself announced he'll work on only one rom now, and that's gonna be Mdroid.

I'm currently on Havoc pie by GHdev, btw.

It's not fully stable yet, some unoptimized parts here and there, but daily usable.
[Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] zahinwadud:
Yeah, I've read that somewhere on ARROW OS's post.

Damn!! You switched too fast ... So you are adventurous!!!

Many are saying that that ROM isn't stable yet. I got that. Bro, any new feature?

May be I'll stick with HAVOC OS.

But I miss DoT OS. Man, that's so beautiful!!!

Anyway. If I get some free time, I also will experiment with HAVOC OS v2. Meanwhile I wish GHdev will improve.
[Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] kibria.mgk:
I'm on Havoc for three days now, and I think the switching was not that fast. Pie roms have been there for a while now.

And, there's no exceptional feature to mention.
[Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] zahinwadud:
:)

Meanwhile I've seen some videos. It looks good. May be I'm gonna switch that too.

[Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] drawun:
Which ROM should I go for stability and good developer support?
[Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] kibria.mgk:
Oreo: Mdroid,

Pie: Havoc (official, so longer support expected), ArrowOS (by Razziell, unofficial, may or may not be continued, dev may switch to Mdroid pie)
[Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] psykkuno:

Which recovery do you use?
[Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] unions8:
I use 3.2.3.0

Is it possible, it's due to my ROM is encrypted? I always have to make a gesture in TWRP in order to unlock the recovery. I also found PIN/Pass remover in advanced tools of TWRP, but it doesn't help too...
[Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] zahinwadud:
SIM resets - what does that mean? Can you give a little more light on that topic.

I was planning to flash tonight; but now I'm gonna hold. Because the current version is stable enough for my daily usage and it already has all kinds of PIE looks/feels.

Another thing, since it seems you are already running v2 what

kernel

has been used? How's the battery performance?
[Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] Danoz88:
I did several times. Tried to repair data, changed from ext4 to f2fs and back to ext4 didn't help.

After entering wrong password error in encryption need to do a factory reset but that change nothing.
[Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] unions8:
The issue with password solved. My ROM was encrypted, so the phone always wanted the password. If you are in souch trouble:

IMPORTANT! backup your data partition if there is some data you don't want to lose, otherwise you can start with point 1 below...

1. in TWRP install the ROM and gapps.

2. reboot straight to TWRP again, but instead of the unlocking TWRP hit cancel

3. wipe data partition in the advanced wipe

4. now you can reboot without prompting.
[Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] kazekiri:
It's not a big deal at all. Each time you reboot, a message pops up prompting you to select your sim and you just press it. It's a bug currently present in a lot of pie roms for a lot of devices. I'm starting to see a few roms now where the devs have disabled it.

It's no reason at all to hold off on flashing pie. Happy flashing.

Is anyone else not able to receive SMS on Pie?
[Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] cd492:
I'm really surprised this one has no own thread on xda. It's pretty stable and the first pie I used for the Redmi 4. Tested it some hours now.

Pro:

- The Buttons are correct, left = recent and you can manage them in the settings without a extra app like button mapper.

- You can finally change the color of the notification light for each app, even every email address can have a different color

Contra:

- No real Ambient Display.

[Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] unions8:
After a few hours on Pie:

Yes, there isn't any default SMS app, but I was able to receive Whatsapp verification or a two-phase Google verification.

Also, there are much fewer functions in comparison to the latest 8.1 Havoc. For example system profiles; ambient display; status bar, quick tiles, UI settings and many many more.

I don't want to revert back to the 8.1, but if you still didn't upgrade, I suggest you to wait till any further update.
[Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] cd492:

[Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] ShihabZzz:
Can u explain point 2?
[Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] unions8:
Is your ROM encrypted? If it's not, it's irrelevant.

If it is, and you want to decrypt your ROM (and the TWRP also) you should proceed according to the steps I have described.

Step 2 is: When you have the new ROM and gapps installed, you have to reboot the phone, but not the system. Reboot back to TWRP. When it asks you to unlock the recovery (a gesture in my case, but I suppose it can be anything), just don't do it. Hit cancel instead. You'll get to TWRP with some partitions locked. Then you just need to wipe data partition. And restart. Now you have your android decrypted. It's necessary for Pie update because the phone asks for a password, which doesn't exist and you have to reset it. And it's impossible with encrypted TWRP.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] elknimrod:
I have this strange problem that just cropped up. After a full recharge the other day the battery showed normal draining. When I tried to recharge it wouldn't; neither from the wall charger or usb by computer. So the battery showed steady drain unless charging, but never got more charge. Finally when turning on the phone on battery alone it shows 1% charge, and there's nothing I can do about it, the phone will turn itself off.

Diagnostics: I measured the battery voltage and it is ~4.2 volts. This seems like a full battery yet the phone doesn't see it.

I measured the voltage at the battery terminals in the phone while hooked up to charger which was ~4.2 volts. So it seems the battery is being charged.

Why is the phone not seeing the battery charge? Is the battery dead even though it measures 4.2v?:confused:

I did run the gps before this happened using gps tool, bit I think I turned it all off. Anyway more than one soft reset didn't help.

Thanks,

Ed

No real answer here but perhaps something to try:

I am dealing with another member who has a similar problem.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=377675&page=2 From post 17 onward.

With battery in, the orange charge light comes on and all seems normal. However with a few seconds of turning on the message that the main battery is critcally low comes up and the phone turns off. He has tried another battery with the same result. This happens even with the charger connected.

(EDIT: I have now read that his has - for no obvious reason started to work ok - Now even more convinced it's a charging circuit lock-up issue - given time and possibly a bit of battery fiddling and it comes good in the end - see No 2 below)

Now I'm wondering whether this could be one of two things:

1.

A hardware fault - possibly in the charging circuit or more crudely one of the battery circuit board connectors is not connecting.

OR

2.

The circuit that controls charging has to put it crudely become "stuck" in a similar fashion to those who get the RLOD red LED showing when they connect the charger. A commonly accepted trick for overcoming the RLOD is to connect the charger and wriggle the battery on and off the four contact pins. This presumably has the effect of forcing the charging circuit to re-set itself. I just wonder whether it might have the same effect in your situation.
