[Redmi Note 2 Original Android Development] Renth:
Not really since most of the ROMs I already tested and installed as secondary ROM could be rooted via SuperSU (e.g. crdroid, LineageOS, ...) - the only exception so far is the current RRemix out of OP. Previous versions IMHO I was able to root using SuperSU.

BTW:

How can I get a local calendar running on ViperOS and what else does this OS automatically connect/send/hand over to Google?

And is there a more convenient way to maintain background data settings besides for each app individually (e.g. a list of all apps with a toggle next to each of it like it is already within other settings)?

Addendum: After installing and testing ViperOS it seems that OS unfortunately suffers massivly from battery drain! When using RRemix battery lasted easily several hours and even overnight! When now in ViperOS battery drains 12% within roundabout 10 mins without using any app and only having screen on for maybe less than 3 mins! This is ridiculous! How do you handle this when using ViperOS?

RRemix is a little bit less consuming but still at least for me not in a range for daily use (since it doesn't even last 24hours without using phone at all - so nearly no SOT!).

Or is there anything known how to exceed battery lifetime with these OS versions? I read that it is a kernel issue, so did any expert ever found out which part of the kernel is causing it? Are there other (custom?) kernels around which would work?

HI, i have a problem with all this custom rom, I flash it on redmi note 2 prime which has 32gb internal memory, but after i flash this rom, it gives me only 16GB, can you tell me what is wrong?

[Redmi Note 2 Original Android Development] javahenz:
haha... thats why calling viperOS, the "poison" worked so it drained
[Redmi Note 2 Original Android Development] Renth:
That is really sad. Would really like to use my Redmi Note 2 Prime for still quite some years even. But within last official MIUI global I cannot use OpenCamera and cannot change default camera either. In addition when using original battery it seems to drain more and shutdown too early (either battery is aged or charging circuits and logic are no longer working properly). The original (at least to best possible extent when reading everywhere and finally ordering online) replacement seem to cause sudden crashes, freezes and so on. Seems to increas the lower the power level of the battery is.

Hence a more modern ROM with no battery drain would be really cool. Wasn't publishing/release of the sources helpful in any manner for the developers/porters at all (I am not in mobile development so I cannot judge on this myself)?

Does this ROM work well with calls through bluetooth?

I will install this ROM if It works well with bluetooth calls.

- Youtube work perfect (h264 1080p 60fps & 360 video)

- VP9 720p 30fps work ok, but 720p 60fps and 1080p 30/60fps drop frames.

------------------

13092018 (LOS, RR, DotOS, ViperOS and crDroid)

- tried to fix colors on camera (for video recording)

- fixed some codecs (not playing flac files)

------------------

Dirty flashed crDroid 20180913 over 20180906 build.

Colors fixed on video recording as mentioned on Changelog. : good:

System and user apps work just fine!

Magisk 17.1 rooted device properly, but SafetyNet checked failed to pass basicIntegrity and ctsProfile!

Theme: Substratum with DNA Dark Project

Google Assistant and Lens works like a charm!

One drawback is battery drains so fast! Don't know exactly, may be due to my battery's quality.

Anyway, many thanks Azizb750. Sorry can't press thank button as I suggested. You deserve to receive more thanks other than on page one!

Have a great day!

PS

Dirty flashed also RR 20180913 over RR 20180909 build.

Everything works just fine as it's happened on crDroid 20180913 build.

Here works just fine!

Assuming your device rooted properly (I'm using Magisk 17.2), let's reinstall Xposed from scratch!

1. Delete Xposed installer > reinstall Xposed installer (https://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=4393082&d=1516301692)

2. Reboot to recovery > install Xposed uninstaller (http://dl-xda.xposed.info/framework/uninstaller/xposed-uninstaller-20180117-arm64.zip) to uninstall Xposed framework

3. Reinstall Xposed Framework (http://dl-xda.xposed.info/framework/sdk25/arm64/xposed-v89-sdk25-arm64.zip)

4. Wipe cache and dalvik

5. Reboot.

6. Run Xposed installer > Xposed framework v89 should be active > download modules as you preferred > modules checked > setup modules > reboot (it it's necessary)

Now you have Xposed functioning well! ( But, you never passed SafetyNet check!)

Happy Xposing and wish you luck!

Guys now I can understand why SafetyNet fails

we have an patch so the system can boot without defining selinux domain, so it boots in permissive mode,

probably this patch triggers the SafetyNet alongside with the missing *.te files by causing CTSProfile and BasicIntegry to be false

I need to disable this patch and rewrite Sepolicy either from cm-12.1 or from los 13.0 of [MENTION=6296775]Dinolek[/MENTION] to adapt it with nougat but it will take a long time,

except if found a way and derive from other devices, probably will be kinda hard, cause we use SEPolicy version 28 while currently is 30 and most devices with kernel source probably have it at that version

which makes our work a bit harder
