Installing Updates and Now Playing

I flashed the Pixel Experience ROM on my Mi A2, and its probably one of the best things I did! The ROM is awesome, but I have few clarifications.

1) First of all, while installing updates, I get a message saying to flash the downloaded update (.zip file) from custom recovery as the device has A/B Partition. So if I flash the update, i.e the downloaded .zip file from custom recovery, I will lose all my data right? If so, every time I need to update the ROM, my data gets deleted (except if backups exist, of course)?

2) I did notice the Now Playing feature under Ambient Display Settings. I enabled Always on and Now Playing. Yet, my device does not seem to recognize any song that is being played. I tried it a lot of times, with different songs, but in vain. The Now Playing Music History is empty. However, if I do a quick "What song is playing" query in google assistant, the assistant can easily recognize almost all songs immediately. Am I the only one who is not able to use the Now Playing feature?

Hoping to get some answers. Thanks.

we waiting yours because realy good works Pixel Experience rom for kate and kenzo. But not up-to-date any news.

Are you say to Pixel Experience 9.0 AOSP maintainers general we waiting yours. Do not abondoned please.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] :
1- After you downloaded the update, flash in the same partition that you're in, then switch and reboot. You will not lose your data, but make a backup just in case. (Flash magisk after switching slots if you're rooted)

2- Now playing doesn't seem to be functional at this moment, probably in a future update.

You dont have to go back to Oreo. Heres a working tutorial:

I flashed PixelExperience_jasmine-9.0-20190124-1819-OFFICIAL.zip yesterday. Here are the key observations

1.Make sure you have the right USB Drivers for your Mi A2 (Can be downloaded from Mi website). If you don't you wont be able to copy the .zip to the internal storage

2.Follow the installation instructions which OP posted

3.Download the right TWRP version. In my case I downloaded a TWRP version which was okay for wiping the A and B slots but was unable to install the ROM as the error "error installing zip file /sdcard" kept popping up repeatedly and I had to use PBRP instead and voila i was able to flash the ROM. Which made it obvious that it has to do with TWRP version

3. Once the ROM is flashed, Wiping Dalvik and Cache gave errors like /cache partition not found. I ignored it. It said the same for system partition when i switched to Slot A

4. After switching to Slot A as mentioned by OP and tried to Reboot. It gave me a message that "No OS found! Do you still want to reboot". I just rebooted anyway and got the Pixel ROM to boot. It just took 2-3 minutes.

5. I didn't root the phone and majority of the apps i use did not require my device to be rooted

What's Good

=============

1. Butter Smooth & Great Battery performance

2.DT2W works on my Mi A2

3.For Indian readers - Jio 4g LTE works flawlessly

4.Display brightness is adjustable unlike what others reported that it is dull

5.Faceunlock works fine

Bugs

=====

1.Call volume does not increase as you increase it but audible enough to take calls. On Bluetooth, I am able to decrease and increase volume

2.Now Playing does not work as reported by others

I'll now install the Gcam and report back.

Thanks to OP and all the posts on XDA. I am really glad that i flashed this ROM. It is way better than Stock Pie on Mi A2

[Xiaomi Mi A2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Catsonvi:
Pretty much everything. The haptic feedback is really nice, it has the Pixel rounded edges look, font, you can enable camera2api from settings and use the GCam mod (I managed to find a Pixel 3 one with Night Sight and everything and it works, but it's a bit buggy since it's beta).

There's also double tap to wake and some other proximity sensor gestures. So far I didn't find a single bug.

[Xiaomi Mi A2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] CommieColin:
Hey y'all, I'm a little confused about the installation instructions for this ROM (and all the other ROMs out there) - currently I'm on stock 8.1 November update, rooted with Magisk. I rooted by booting (not flashing) TWRP and then flashing the Magisk 17.1 zip.

My question is this - the instructions for all the ROMs say that we're supposed to set slot B to active, flash everything and then set slot A to active before booting? Is this possible because we're wiping the entire system beforehand? (My understanding is that some phones use slot A and some use B.)

I just want to make sure that I'm not messing up the instructions, as I've never dealt with a phone like the Mi A2 where there's two active slots.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Yepi69:
As far as my current experience goes, the phone switches its slot automatically if it doesn't boot the first time, same goes if an update fails. Kind of like a fail-safe method.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] alibhuiyan5:
I have been using this rom. Everything is working fine. But few issues need to be fixed

1. Incall volume in low still.

2. No headphone icon

3. Need Updated mi A2 stock camera app. Coz gcam and the stock ( this build) doesn't have the ability to select the low light camera.

4. Google photos was detected as Unlimited storage for original size photos (like mido). But in this build photo storage in limited for original size .

Apart from these issues this build is awesome.

You don't need to go back to Oreo, anymore. The ROM already have Pie files.

I installed it from Pie a month a go and it works like a charm here.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] soygogeta4:
The problem is not TWRP, but a line in the rom that specifies to install in "jasmine" devices, while some MI A2s are codenamed "jasmine_sprout". I installed the ROM with TWRP 3.2.3 after editing that file (don't remember exactly which file was). I had to realize this problem creating a TWRP log file and then search file by file for a line of code that specifies "jasmine" lol (I'm kinda new in this ROM subject and I'm only 15).

Disable call logs, SMS and telephone permissions for Google play services. You'll get errors whenever you receive SMS just long press the notifications in the panel and tap on don't show notifications, you'll have to do it on several instances. You'll receive messages but not the errors.

Enjoy :)
[Xiaomi Mi A2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Surya Chandra:
Thanks for the reply. I have done it and those notifications were really annoying. I think we can turn those permissions on after registration and again off when ever we are about to make a payment and turn it on again after payment. This is working for me. Tested for 2 or 3 times

---------- Post added at 04:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:51 PM ----------

Yes. It is too low even on speaker
[Xiaomi Mi A2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] gxim:
Yes you can do it, it's another solution. But everytime when you make a payment you'll have to go all the way into the permission settings for play services.

What I've stated is that you'll have to bear with those notifications (too much annoying) for sometime, just long press and tap on don't show notifications. And you'll never see them again. But you'll have to keep a bit of patience.

Assuming you have an unlocked bootloader

Just Flash the patch boot.img

You would be having magisk manager. Install the full version from the apk and voila.

Something seems to be wrong with the brightness. the screen brightness goes to full brightness whenever the slider is anything above 30%

it seems like the brightness steps have decreased since the transition between brightness values seems very jumpy.

otherwise the rom is great and I fashed HEX with it and I love my phone now. also in this rom you can edit media_profiles in etc to improve the audio bitrate in videos and it works like a charm, no noise cancelling artifacts and all that nonsense from stock.
