[Xiaomi Redmi 5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Jan294:
I believe that the main function of a smartphone is still the PHONE. So yes, if the incall volume is not adjustable and the caller hears his echo the rom is useless for me. Actually I'm using RR Nougat because the only bug there is: during roaming the phone is complete useless. But usually I don't leave my country so I'm not affected by that bug.

Back to topic: a big surprise (that is what you announced) would be FOR ME, if RR or Lineage or Aex would be bug-free (Oreo or Pie isn't important, important is that everything works). Don't get me wrong: I understand that young(?) developers are interested in bleeding edge, but for me as a user the main thing is stability and full-function. But you told me some devs are working on the volume bug so I keep patient and hope they will solve it the next few days or weeks. :)
[Xiaomi Redmi 5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] M4rkusX:
You are right, stable pie is great news. Still, this thread is about 15.1, so I would have expected news about 15.1... especially since you shifted your 15.1 release for the january updates. ;)
[Xiaomi Redmi 5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Jan294:
Of course it is. :)
[Xiaomi Redmi 5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Shreejoy Dash:
Ok let me explain you that when I posted the download link of Los December patch it was too old also the implementation of gcam was difficult at that time

Now I am trying to implement it properly but not able to make all feature to work

But in case of pie it is a lot more easier than expected

Also most of the features are working there

hi all, sorry if i missout some info, my question is do this rom have OTA update? thank you .
[Xiaomi Redmi 5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Jan294:
No.

Unofficial = no ota update (with bad luck even no update ever)
[Xiaomi Redmi 5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] M4rkusX:
Thanks for the explanation. So your suggestion is to already upgrade to 16.0 because its already in a better shape than 15.1. :cool:
[Xiaomi Redmi 5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] animeshstiwari:
Just an Update

I flashed Retro Kernel and used Kernel Auditor for reducing in-call volume. Trying to figure out a script for binding it to volume panel.

Hope it helps
[Xiaomi Redmi 5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Shreejoy Dash:

Lineage Oreo *fully* stable coming soon....

Get ready.....

Fixed Vendor Mismatch + January patch + In call volume bug fixed = :D

Also I am trying to improve the battery life

BTW would you guys like if I add poco launcher to it coz lineage launcher really sucks

Or should I add lawnchair ......
[Xiaomi Redmi 5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Jan294:
I would prefer if you add nothing and everyone can choose on his own (I prefer Nova launcher) to keep the ROM slim. ;)

Will be LOS Oreo more stable than Pie?

...fully stable, great great great... :D
[Xiaomi Redmi 5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] bjyadav4:
Lawnchair is better than poco launcher

Sorry to bother, I tried to update from the last build via OrageFox but the fingerprint stopped working, it was working really fine before, only tried this update cause of the mismatch vendor thing. So I did a factory reset and a clean install but the fingerprint still did not respond. I'm a total newbie regards android and programming. so I don't know how to log or anything besides the basic wipe and install, if you can't help its fine, I'm really enjoyed your work with the room, will just suck'it up and deal with the mismatching vendor.

Many thanks.
[Xiaomi Redmi 5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Shreejoy Dash:
Bro in my point of view orange fox is not at all recommended

Its partially bugged

Better to use treble twrp

That works better
[Xiaomi Redmi 5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] bjyadav4:
Use TWRP recovery

I update my rom and everything is working fine

Very smooth nu issues :)

In my opinion u can flash wolf kernal over this rom and then reflash the rom
[Xiaomi Redmi 5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] bjyadav4:
[MENTION=500837]Shree[/MENTION]joy das

I am using the updated rom for two days. Every thing is running smooth no issue. It is really very stable

But i have notice one minor issue which becomes major some time. Network is continue fluctuating. Suddenly goes up and suddenly goes down within few seconds. And some of my friends report me that when i call them they hear their own voice.

Pls provide any way to fix the network unstable issue. Some time it really very annoying.

Thanks again for the rom. U r awesome
[Xiaomi Redmi 5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Billubas:
Thanks for the reply.

I was using Orangefox because some error the first time I flashed the phone, just don't remember the error code. Anyway, I changed back to the TWRP but with no lucky, tried update the old build, new install, reset factory, wipe cache, dalvik but the fingerprint scanner gave no signal no matter what I tried. I will just stick with the older build, worked fine for me, had no problem with the volume or fpscanner (never noticed the reported delay) , the only annoyance is the vendor error.

Big thanks for your work with all the versions, the MiUi with all the bloatware and adds all over the place is just goddamn awful, again thank you.

[Xiaomi Redmi 5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Jan294:
Thank you so much for this Rom! :) I installed yesterday with latest firmware, stable magisk 18 and retro kernel (with wolf kernel it was extrem laggy). No problems so far, even no network problems. If I find something the next days/weeks/months I'll let you know.

One question: is there one or two speakers build in the phone? Because for me only one (the right one) is working. Never checked if it was different with my previous Rom...

-

I'm back on original lineage kernel. Still only the right speaker working (or is no speaker on the left?).

To continue my monologue...: there's only one speaker build in the phone, on the left is the microphone.

I don't know where you found it is unstable. Can you quote, please? It is unofficial but that means not the same. I recognize the same battery "heating" like with MIUI.

I can't root this rom. I tried magisk 17.3 and 18.1 but i met "error 1" when flashing magisk. Please help me
[Xiaomi Redmi 5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Jan294:
I use 18.0 stable without problems. But it sounds like you use non-treble recovery. Try Batik recovery or treble-twrp (both in this forum).
[Xiaomi Redmi 5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] phuocvo241:
OK thank you. But game performances very lag, i can't play PUBG Mobile smoothly like miui eu
[Xiaomi Redmi 5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Jan294:
Try Wolf-kernel (V3).

*edit*

If still problems, install "setcpu free" and change the governor to "performance", maybe that will give you better result.

I don't quite understand what is in the current 15th January version, because the earlier changelogs are not in the second post anymore. What is/was fixed in the Oct/Nov builds.

OP spoke in december about Dual 4G/VoLTE, and other things like G-wallpaper app (useless to implement if it's also freely available in apkmirror/play store, why should you bloat the ROM). Could OP add all the changelogs to the second post? And known bugs in the OP, such as the Fingerprint scanner are still known bugs, as a separate bugfix is necessary in some builds. Another thing for me is I'm unsure if the IR blaster works, same for FM radio.

Anyway, good job maintaining and working on this build, and good luck with your exams. Experimental Android Pie/9/16 couldn't bother me as much, as I would rather prefer a stable build over multiple crashes/restarts/voice/camera/etc bugs, so this work appreciated! The clarity of the posts by OP could be improved though.
[Xiaomi Redmi 5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Jan294:

I flashed the ROM and a HavocOs 2.0 GSI and it's running perfectly only FP's not working, but the battery life isn't great.I'll test the new thunderstorm kernel after a couple of hours when my battery falls to 0%.At night it fell by around 2-3% which is great, but when I'm playing a game it starts discharging rapidly like 20% for an hour of gameplay which used to be around 10% with Miui 10 Global Beta 8.9.20.

You may not wipe your internal storage and external storage but upgrading from nougat to Oreo needs a clean install but if you do install without wipe then it may not boot if it boots also it will give you a tons of app crashes that will make the ROM completely unusable.....

Thank you so much for your work guys, I flashed this on my Redmi 5 -- everything's working except the fingerprint sensor, which, unfortunately is very important for me. I hope you guys can apply a fix soon.
