That is not a bug. Android pie ROM s don't have this feature. I personally don't like this feature. It was little annoying then. Imo The Red tint on the battery icon is enough.

How did you fix ViLTE, I love this ROM but there are certain features that Lineage OS lacks over Superior OS

And from past few months I've been trying to fix ViLTE in Superior OS on my own but couldn't do anything.

Can you please help in fixing ViLTE in Superior OS (Nemesis) as it's also based on Android 9

Please reply

Still have disconnections :(
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] Anik1:
Dont no about disconnection but those who experienced slow wifi speed should change their router channel reboot then test the speed, Check each and every channel until u find the bes one like i am gettin max speeds on channel 2 and 13
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] gast12:
Trying different wifi channels is rather a wifi optimization thing, and should not correlate with a ROM.

What you always want with wifi, is to choose the least busy channel in your router. Tools like Inssider or NetSpot can be used to analyse the wifi spectrum in your place.

At least this would help you to find out whether it's ROM or (most likely) WiFi related problem.

Hi to all, I have a Xiaomi Redmi note 5 "Pro/AI" whatever the name is on different country... I flashed xiaomi.eu ROM but want to install Lineage OS because pretty much every app on my ROM is calling home, China or USA google headquarters, I don't understand even the download manager calls china when I download a PDF, any way, I would like to ask your opinions about the stability and what do I lose on getting rid of the Xiaomi MIUI based ROM and install this Lineage based ROM.

- Are Google Services Pre Installed?

- Does the Infra Red works to control TV Set, Garage door etc?

- Does the Finger Print Scanner works?

- Can I still record phone calls.

- How's the privacy overall and known Bugs?

Pros and Cons?

Thanks for any feedback or post link talking about this kind of questions! Great 2020 to all!
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] fusob:
1. Google services are not preinstalled; you have to flash gapps separately.

2. I haven't been able to find an infrared remote control app on f droid or non play store source so I don't know if ir works.

3. Finger print scanner works great.

4. There are several call recording apps on f droid so I assume you can but I haven't actually used them.

5. Privacy is only as good as the apps you use. I haven't noticed any real bugs. Although I have not been able to get aptx codec to work at all. But this is true of all roms for this device.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] Bonoboo:
2. Yes, IR works, tried Mi Remote.

4. LOS have built-in recorder, but your country can be blacklisted. Auto-recording switch located into Dialer settings.

Thank you for the reply [MENTION=5148757]fusob[/MENTION] and [MENTION=5037002]Bonoboo[/MENTION], I forgot to mentioned but also need Miracast, hope it works.

It's true, and I use a Firewall, but even when downloading a simple PDF, the built in download manager from Xiaomi.eu MIUI apps sends data to an unknown IP, then it's time to try an Open Source approach ROM with the hope that the Open Source Code makes it more privacy respectful!

Small review to the Lineage OS - 16.0 [UNOFFICIAL] [9.0] [17 Dec], very nice ROM, fast and default apps don't call home like in other ROMs, on Redmi Note 5 everything seems to work but the Miracast does not, I do think Google messed this on purpose (to sell chrome cast) so it need to be backported probably from the last Android Version, install drivers or change some line of code. Will check it.

Greetings,
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] Bonoboo:
Works for me.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] cvzalez:
What does it work? Miracast or Chomecast, both are different protocols, I already google about it and it's a known problem in Lineage OS ROMs, I checked and none of my 2 devices with Miracast showed on Redmi Note 5. If I solve this little problem, I would definitely change for Lineage in an eye blink. What's your setup?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] gast12:
you can also ask in the los 17 thread, but it seems more beta-ish to me.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] Bonoboo:
As I quoted, Miracast works.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] cvzalez:
You are right, don't know why took so long, but now all my Miracast devices appear and correctly connect! Tank You all for the good work!

Hi,

I switched to this ROM some time back and I am very satisfied with its stability.

But from the beginning I experienced sproadically starting battery drain (~10% in 8hrs in airplane mode) which I could only stop by a reboot until the next occurence within a few days. I used the same Apps as before on LOS15.1 where I did not had this issue.

With GSAM battery monitor, I found that when the issue is active, my phone is kept alive by an extensive number of kernel wakelocks (IPCRTR_lpass_rx). Searching the net, I was not able to find what this is for, but I saw that this wakelock is configured to be blocked by default by certain custom Whyred kernels. So I tried one (Mystic kernel non-OC) and since then the issue is gone.

So people having the same issue might want to consider to switch to another kernel. Or alternatively integrate boeffla wakelock blocker into the kernel of this ROM :p
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] fusob:
Thanks for the info. Just curious if there is a link to the latest version where I don't have to get a telegram account. I downloaded a version dated April 2019 but I don't know if it is the latest. Thanks ahead of time.

you can view telegram channels without being registered in this app

just add /s after t.me link

there is a magic button under the dev picture that can make him consider updating it more often or a longer period of time

Thank you my good sir!
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] CoLdIcE42:
Hi all,

I just wanted to share my experience and this may save some time for others who are in the same situation.

I was on an Oreo custom rom with twrp 3.3.1. I use nanodroid (which requires signature spoofing).

I installed this rom as suggested and everything worked fine however, this rom is not deodexed !

So I went on and tried to deodex it according to the tutorial from Nanolx.

I soon had to discover that for a reason I still dont know twrp went complete lockdown when it comes to communicating with my PC.

I could not mount any partitions or use adb, even the sideloading feature didn’t work.

I don’t know if this was caused by the firmware, twrp or if its connected to the rom.

I can only conclude that if you want to use Nanodroid with signature spoofing on Pie something just is not ready jet.

Regards

How can I disable apps from auto starting up in Lineage OS ROM?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] zBear:
settings - security - trust - privacy guard

but you should know that some apps can bypass that even being stopped and/or disabled by Sevicely
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] drnightshadow:
Try to use OrangeFox recovery.. and you'll see if it is the TWRP problem. Nanodroid patcher should work even on PIE(i think the latest version has bug - not sure).

and you have threads on xda forum about that (use search). One thread is here(you can ask there for help): https://xdaforums.com/apps/magisk/module-nanomod-5-0-20170405-microg-t3584928/

Good luck.

P.s.: let us know the result.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] I5WsRcGXFSPHLBFtjNxBXkd2:
Nanodroid`s last stable patcher shows error and wont work when using it with this ROM.

I dont know if its patcher or ROM`s fault but I tried with two clean flashes to ensure that Im not doing anything wrong.

Edit: After more testing, I found that its patchers fault. Tried with MyCats Lineage Os 16 and neither works but if you try older patcher versions it works.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] zBear:
can you please show me your settings screenshot for this wakelock blocker by boeffla in your kernel manager?

or you just activated it with "Apply on boot" switch without changing any additional settings?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] m(f/y:
Actually I just flashed the mystic kernel which incorporates the wakelock blocker.

Among others, the corresponding wakelock (IPCRTR_lpass_rx) is configured to be blocked by default through

#define LIST_WL_DEFAULT	"qcom_rx_wakelock;wlan;wlan_wow_wl;wlan_extscan_wl;netmgr_wl;NETLINK;IPA_WS;[timerfd];wlan_ipa;wlan_pno_wl;wcnss_filter_lock;IPCRTR_lpass_rx;hal_bluetooth_lock"

in the file drivers\base\power\boeffla_wl_blocker.h of the Kernel sources.

The file in Mystic kernel sources:

https://github.com/OktapraAmtono/my...c-Pie/drivers/base/power/boeffla_wl_blocker.h

If you want to add wakelocks in a running system with a kernel that incorporates boeffla wakelock blocker, I think you have to add the wakelock name to /sys/class/misc/boeffla_wakelock_blocker/wakelock_blocker (separate multiple with semicolons). But I guess that this is gone after reboot, so if you want it permanently, it needs to be added to some startup script. I never tried this.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] zBear:
I was jumping back and forward today from kernel to another and on any kernel (including Mistic 8.5) that was supporting wakelock blocker that option was turned off by default

if I got this settings correctly, to activate it I had to turn on switch vis-a-vis IPCRTR_lpass_rx and than "Apply on boot" main switch in that section

anyway I'm back to stock Illusion kernel and want to see how it will behave during night because your report made me curious about this situation in general :)
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] m(f/y:
Hi,

I am quite sure that the wakelock blocker is enabled by default on Mystic Kernel 8.5. On my mobile in a terminal

cat /sys/class/misc/boeffla_wakelock_blocker/debug

shows

Debug status: 0 (...) Active: 1

echo 1 > /sys/class/misc/boeffla_wakelock_blocker/debug

enables debug output.

After doing this, I typed "dmesg" and directly found some entries about blocked wakelocks in the kernel log.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] zBear:
Just a little update with my stock Illusion kernel testing.

Was testing it for the past 3 days.

In general, during 8 hour night my phone discharges with 3-5% and my SOT is 5.5-6.5

Don't see any special need to use other kernels in my case, everything work fine the way it is.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] Bonoboo:
Bug: sometimes touchscreen become a bit laggy.

Easy repeatable by trying pull down notification shade - it successfully only 1 from 10 tries.

Same with all other area including buttons, touches are inaccurate. It's like low "refresh rate".

Simple turn off and on screen immediately fixes this - notifications opens easily at all tries.

This never happened on Oreo, so seems software thing. And I'm not only one

This *not* helps:

- newest firmware 11.0.3.0

- custom kernel (Extended)

- enabling dt2w

Did you install the firmware or vendor+firmware version?

I am just asking, because when LineageOS needed newer firmware for update, I tried to update with firmware version, but the error was still there saying that I need at least xy firmware version. Then I installed vendor+firmware and everything was fine for update.
