[MENTION=6519039]jhenrique09[/MENTION]

Been using PE since Jan' 19. Now on latest pie plus, everything tastes awesome just the way u cooked it. The network traffic indicator has always been great but the size is small which is understandable given the limited space and u need to fit both upload+dwnld values. Bt now that we hv a seperate "Plus" version can we have "only download traffic indicator" that is "without upload values"? so that the font size becomes normal and readable without straining eyes. I think this would be

;) "easy peasy Japanesy" for u!;)

As usual respect n love for your exceptional work bro.

I want to install the latest stock pe rom (not the plus) and i am currently on 10.3.7.0 global stable. Is this how i should install it?

Because it includes vendor and you didn't patch it with dfe before booting?

There's no problem per se with being encrypted...

---------- Post added at 05:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:00 PM ----------

Any performance hit due to encryption should be marginal especially since encryption will be hardware assisted.

You don't need magisk to prevent encryption.

Just flash dfe after every flash of a new vendor or rom that includes vendor.

The Phone offered me an update to the Plus Version (?) I tried, but it just Downloads and restarts my Phone and i have to download again. There is a little message how to do the update instead, But i dont even have any idea how to enter twrp again or whatever has to be done..

Do i have to lern all this to be able to Update?

Touch response depends on kernel, not on vendor which you flash.

I dirty flashed the vendor firmware. After reboot the phone is encrypted. I didnt flash the DFE.

So next time if there is newer build, i need to format data and clean install, right?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Nahyoh:
If your poco is encrypted and you don't flash DFE/FED earlier, dirty flash will lead you to getting stuck at encryption password which means you have to fornat data and do clean flash eventually. everything in your internal storage will be wiped away.

However you can try this procedure and if you're lucky please let others know :

backing up data > remove fingerprint > remove password/pin >reboot to TWRP > flash latest ROM > wipe cache/dalvik > reboot system
[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Elenthar:
It didn't work - after removing PIN and fingerprint, I still can't go into TWRP unlocked state (it requires password to decrypt data partition). TWRP can't see the downloaded ZIP as well. I'm going to wipe it and install encryption locker... Will I be able to manually encrypt the device with a known password?

I downloaded the App but there is no Option boot in recovery Mode..

My Phone is Not rooted. Is that the problem there?

Also, when i try the Button combination volume+ and Power, i seem to Boot in the "normal" xiaomi recovery.

Is it possible, that i did Not install twrp, but just - i dont know- "ran" it from the PC? (without installing twrp?)

Or is it Not possible to run this Rom without having twrp installed.

i AM on pixel experience and i remember using twrp to Flash the Firmware and the Rom. I did Not delete anything after that

Error 7

Hi,

Initially I had the same problem.

You'll see that it tells you that you are not on the correct version.

[IMG="Error7"]https://i.imgur.com/LQkP0K2.jpg[/IMG]

I saw some recommendations to modify the script by removing the first few lines that do the version check

This DID allow me to install but it DID also hang on boot screen so I don't think that is the way to go.

I then downloaded the stock developer ROM from the Xiaomi website here:

http://en.miui.com/download-355.html

I then installed it with TWRP and rebooted

Straight back into fastboot and then reinstalled the PE custom ROM

And now it worked great without Error 7

So in short:

1) read the instruction on error 7 (you are on old version of stock ROM)

2) Install the latest stock rom

3 Install the PE ROM then try again
