It's nice to know, I'm on the latest release, my clock is 24h and I got the blackscreen problem today again (it's still black btw). I guess it's a bug with the 24h hour clock after all. I'll make sure to set to 12h after my screen comes back from oblivion and I will report again tomorrow to see if it fixes the problem for me too. Still strange the bug is only happening with us brazilians, tho.

EDIT: and like a clockwork the screen was back at 20h

I did not switch partitions after the OTA, the partition will change from your current one though.

I always install ROMs on A as a rule to keep things predictable. After installing the OTA I checked to ensure TWRP was installed on both slots, I noticed upon booting into TWRP for the first time that the current slot was automatically switched to slot B.

I then switched over to slot A to confirm TWRP was also there, which it was. I then changed slots back to B and continued using the phone as normal.

Hope that helps!

Bug: another full system freeze today, however, there was no flash memory IO at the time the freeze occurred.

So can someone confirm if Havoc includes twrp? I'm about to flash Havoc on my A2 for the first time and read that Havoc included twrp on the flashing guide. Not exactly sure how that works.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Phil_Smith:
Yes, it is included.

It means when you flash your ROM (say in slot a), you'll just auto-flash permanent twrp, too, as they are bundled in the same package.

After the ROM flashing procedure, reboot to recovery, switch slot (to b in our example) from twrp's reboot menu, reboot to recovery again and (optionally) flash gapps and root.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Eduardo.medi:
Ok I'm a bit confused on what the guide says, can you lay out the specific steps I need to follow to install Havoc? I've installed it on a Mix 2S coming from MIUI but kinda new to how androidone handles it. Do I need to disable pin/fingerprint before starting? Seen posts about twrp encryption etc.

Error 7

Hi there, not able to flash the latest zip, shows error 7. Can someone please help!?
[Xiaomi Mi A2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] CommieColin:
I too am confused by the flashing process for this ROM - the instructions on the OP say this:

1. Download the ROM and GApps from the links above.

2. Wipe System, Data, Dalvik, Cache.

3. Flash the ROM and GApps.

4. Reboot set Mobile Network correctly (Enable LTE) and Enjoy.

but then https://xdaforums.com/mi-a2/how-to/guide-how-to-flash-custom-roms-stuff-t3876375 seems much more complicated.

I've only ever flashed ROMs on older android devices without the A/B partition scheme, so apologies if this is a dumb question. It will be my first ROM flashed to my Mi A2 and I want to make sure I'm doing it properly.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] :
First boot into twrp.

Then wipe data, cache, dalvik and system.

Then boot into the other slot.

You can change slot in twrp or you can do it in fastboot by using command "fastboot set_active other".

Then flash ROM in twrp.

Then boot to other slot.

After that flash gapps, magisk(if root is needed)

and boot to system.

Done.

Tried to make it as simple as possible.

Forgive for any typos.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] autom8r:
All slowness from this ROM was fixed by flashing Hex kernel over the last OTA update FYI.

[Xiaomi Mi A2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Eduardo.medi:
When switching slots do you reboot the bootloader?

So flash rom in slot a and gapps + magisk in slot b per say. Do you need to reboot to system on the slot you flashed the rom?
[Xiaomi Mi A2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] koen_happy:
Is there a way to show the time left of the battery when I pull down the notification only? Can't make it to work :<
[Xiaomi Mi A2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] :
If you changed slot in twrp then no need to reboot bootloader. And yes you boot into system on the slot you flashed the ROM

[Xiaomi Mi A2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] CommieColin:
Thank you for your response! Much appreciated.

Hopefully this question makes sense - do you (or does anyone) know why we flash the ROM to one partition and the Gapps/Magisk to the other? I'm not questioning the process but right now it doesn't make sense to me as to why the system is on one side and the Gapps/Magisk on the other.

Edit: Additionally, if I were to set my B partition to active, flash the ROM, switch the active partition to A, flash the Gapps and then reboot, I'm assuming the ROM will boot smoothly. If I want to flash Magisk AFTER the first boot, can I just reboot into TWRP and flash it as normal, or would I need to switch my active partition again?

Edit again: lol I'm an idiot and misread the instructions. I now understand that I need to flash the ROM to the inactive partition, reboot to that partition and then install Gapps/Magisk to the same partition. Thanks again for the help, apologies to anyone I've confused.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] :
Very well. Glad to know you did it.

And as for why we flash ROM and gapps in different partitions is not known by me.

Sorry.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Canic:
Because seamless updates:

Flash Rom => Update will be installed on other slot, so we don't need to reboot and install a update from cache and wait till its installed

GApps will be installed on the currently in use slot, so after we flashed the rom, the update is on the other slot and thats why we need to change first the slot.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] :
Thanks for the information.

with 2.5 TWRP was included right? ... so do I just download install and thats it? I can skip magisk a/b script? and changing slots?

[Xiaomi Mi A2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] TheseAreNotTheDroids:
I have a few questions. I just got a bought a Mi A2 about a month ago and have only had stock on it so far. I've already rooted it with Magisk and installed Google Camera and enabled the Camera2 API. I'm no stranger to custom ROMS. I've rooted and installed many ROMs on my previous smartphones, the LG G2 and LG G3.

Anyway, I've been reading about Anti Rollback and it's got me paranoid about trying any custom ROMs. I'm currently on stock, like I said, and I have not yet installed the May security update.

If I installed this or any other ROM, would I be able to go back to stock afterwards taking into account Xiaomi's Anti Rollback feature?

Does this ROM include the latest OTA security update (May 2019) that came out a few days ago?

I see in the OP that this ROM is based off of AOSP. Does it include all the proprietary blobs from the stock ROM, and does everything run as smooth as the stock ROM does?

I ask this because whenever I installed custom ROMs on my LG G2 and LG G3 the UI always felt sluggish and the phone generally seemed to run slower than the stock ROMs. For example, the LG G3's last official OTA system update was still running on Android 6 (Marshmallow), but there are custom ROMs available that are running on Android 9 (Pie) such as LineageOS 16. They even have the proprietary blobs from the stock ROM incorporated into the custom ROMs, but they still run very sluggish compared to the stock ROM in my experience.

I'd appreciate anyone who can shed some light on these questions for me. Thanks. :)
[Xiaomi Mi A2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] GedeonTaylor:
Hello, about anti rollback it's only present on mi 6x with miui 10, not on android one, don't even worry about it. Latest security patch, May 5, and about performance it's way better than stock, it 'unlocks' more power, with no battery compromise. The only 'harder' part is to get used to a/b partitions when flashing but it's not that complicated. This rom supports ota just like stock.

Can you help me with steps, please?
[Xiaomi Mi A2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] no6dyVR:
Use nano gapps. As for google camera, you have to get a ported apk, I don't know if bigger packages of gapps include gcam, but if they do, I'm pretty sure you can't use it. Use arnova or the_dise gcam, they work flawlessly.

[Xiaomi Mi A2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] no6dyVR:
Lol gcam is miles ahead of stock. 5mp gcam looks so much better than 20mp stock. It captures much more details. Portrait mode edge detection is insane, while on stock it sucks and captures object that are only in the middle of the screen. As for led flash, I use it once in a blue moon. I havent used stock cam ever since I installed havoc.

So I just flashed the ROM, and I noticed an issue in the lock screen. I have my fingerprint set up, on top of a pin. Whenever I want to toggle any of the quick settings tile, the lock screen prompts me to enter the pin.

For instance, let's say my phone is locked and I just wake up my device by pressing the power button, then swipe down and toggle WiFi, I'm being asked to unlock my phone, which is very annoying.

Is there a setting that I can change which will solve this problem. I'm new to Havoc os, so frankly I'm not familiar with the Havoc settings.

"The Mi A2 uses pixel binning to combine light data from four adjacent pixels on the 20MP sensor into two-micron Super Pixels, resulting in a 5MP image that’s upscaled back to 20MP resolution"

I think Gcam 5mp is better than stock camera, with more details and accurate skin tone.. Because in my opinion stock cam turned out to be a a bit soft and kinda smooth with beauty mode turned off.. For portrait both gcam and stock cam are good in edge detection.. For front LED flash in Gcam, for its not working but screen light function in Gcam already good in my opinion..

I've noticed Custom fingerprint gestures are a bit buggy, Swipe down to Recent apps is hit-or-miss, sometimes it switches the app to the previous one, sometimes it opens Recents. I use Oreo Recents style (Classic). Not a deal-breaker though. Also I can't understand why Haptic strength cannot be set at 0% in Xiaomi Parts. Would be much appreciated if you could also explain why Ambient display settings are doubled (2 options to choose from where to enable it). I'm very curious to find out about it.

Otherwise the ROM seems flawless to me. A great piece of work.
