How did you install ?

I did a full wipe (data, system, cache, storage and format data).

Thern rebooted to recovery.

Then installed the FW given in OP.

Then installed AOSiP.

Then installed OpenGApps.

Then installed Magisk.

Then rebooted...

Result : no FP.

Phone bought from Official Xiaomi store in France.
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] milos.babovic:
I did everything you did, except storage wipe and Magisk (installed it later). My phone is bought in China, in official store, naturally.
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] cherevkoaa:
the fingerprint seems to work only on Chinese models, but there are no global ones :(
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] quincyquinn:
Yep mine is a Chinese 4/64 and the FP is working fine on it.

Well what can I say. fingerprint on global firmware works. thank you very much.
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MrColdbird:
Even if that was the case and it's a hardware problem, there needs to be a way to work around it given MIUI does it.

I personally think it's possibly a combination of multiple factors, but I'm not entirely sure what that implies myself yet.

If other developers want to take a jab at it I'd be happy for the help.

[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] magnamentis:
upthread i posted about a dozen of ways to fix/troubleshoot/workaround it and he and his pals did not come back with any kind of feedback how it went, dunno whether you have that issue but i don't, never has been a biggy but with a few kernel settings it's gone, touch is smooth and instant.

thanks for providing this great rom (best for device) and i always vote against spoon-feeding those who neither read nor troubleshoot nor show any will to learn but a lot of demand.

dont want to be off topic to the touch issue (i have it too), but is it possible to make google play store "play protec-certified? (status can be found in play store-Settings-at the very bottom.
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MrColdbird:
The fingerprint required for this is already part of the ROM... you do however need Magisk installed for it to work.

If you install Magisk late, make sure to clear data for both the Google Play Store & Google Play Services though.

Once done, your store will be "Play Protect Certified".

Also: A new build is available.

ZRAM has been disabled (This means performance improvements.)

HWUI cache parameters have been tweaked (Also performance improvements.)

Pulled in upstream changes
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] propi62:
followed your instructions, playstore certified now.

////// EDIT

PS: is it only me? touch scrolling seems a little better in newest build?

converted data from f2fs to ext4.

have to reflash again. rom flash process is at least 4x faster then in f2fs.
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] L_e_x_t_e_r:
There is a much easier way: Backup only Data, format Data to ext4, change in TWRP formt to -rm and restore Data...reboot.
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Onecton:
Flashed that thing yesterday.

Ran into some issues regarding stock TWRP, it simple refused to read any kind of partition on my device.

Proceeded to the recommended Orange TWRP Mod, upon opening first the recovery it screamed at me that it cannot read Data partition, ignored it.

Did the standard Wipe in Recovery, flashed in Order like OP posted in first post.

Worked like a charm! Been some years since i flashed an Android Device. But I managed lol

Huge thanks to OP! Rom works beautifully
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] jorgeepelos:

I have been using this ROM for about a month now, and I don't think I'll be moving to anything else anytime soon. Everything just works and it has all the customizability that should be incorporated in stock ROM's.

A couple questions however if you don't mind. I cannot find a way to change the default save location for the camera app to SD card. I'm assuming it's been ported from another device that perhaps does not have a slot? Also with the network traffic monitor in the status bar, is it possible to make it so it displays 0 when there's no data being transferred? I recall being able to do that with a Pixel Dust ROM, but it did not like to update. I don't mind going into system and editing whichever file has the thresholds in in if that's what it takes.

Thanks again for your hard work! Found my new favorite ROM for this phone; it's even better than ever before now.

Just you...
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] magnamentis:
i just tested, using original twrp with PIN-lock on rom, result:

- works 1:1 like before

i recommend to wipe data and system and caches but NOT VENDOR and NOT SDCARD

that's it.

this is not an A/B device hence backups and restores work normally, no need to backup and restore partitions separately.

using partitions separately works as well but only when restored in the right order and if anything i'd backup and restore either full or data, the rest i'd prefer to re-install

BTW today's gapps package produced error 20 ( 9.0 only, please use 8.1 gapps) no clue whether this is a rom, a gapps or a procedure issue.

i've downloaded everything again and will make some test with a few wipes and without wipes to see what the issue may be, just in case.

EDIT:

Since i own several A/B devices i got used to flash rom, recovery, reboot recovery flash gapps magisk and boot

this does not work here, at least not with this version, gapps have to be flashed together with rom, else i was not able to mount system.

workaround ist to reboot recovery, mount system which then works and flash gapps + magisk and boot, all good.

SO it begins, the Phone rebooted today and prodly displayed the initial android setup screens, but somehow my stuff was still there. But i wasnt able to connect to my wlan.

Now im reflashing build 20190711 and wipin cache an dalvik in hope that i get the phone up again.

i dont know what caused this the phone was just sitting on my desk and suddenly did all that jazz. If this doesnt fix things i flash the new build and see if that fixes it. Does someone have similar problems or is it just my lucky day today :D

Edit: Dirty flashing Build 20190711 didnt do jack apparently, also i noticed that the fingerprint reader isnt working anymore

Doin a full wipe and reflashing everything from scratch, with the newest build.

SO far so good, wlan works again, and fingerprint reader also, i dont have the slightest idea what caused this
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] tisfomic:
You are on latest build? I had the same problem and forced me back on miui eu. But two or three builds before. Should be fixed by now.

Some people say it has to do with DATA partition not being formatted to EXT4

Anyone that has tested AOSiP and Lineage OS can give me a comparison? (Lags, battery, features etc)
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Amaelnoa:

[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] propi62:
had the same problem yesterday. alot of settings were resetted (screen, sound, vibration, etc). all in all after this crazy thing the phone does not work so nice like before.

my data is ext4.
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] pa.ko:
It happened to me also. Dirty flashed latest ROM over some old version. Worked fine few days. Then suddenly fingertip sensor stopped working. Also lot of settings lost.

Fixed by factory reset and flash of latest version.

Hopping not to repeat again.

Anyone had this issue after factory reset / clean install?

---------- Post added at 07:40 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:27 AM ----------

In 7/11 ver data partition after factory reset was recreated with f2fs instead of exr4.

Anyone tried latest 7/19 build with clean flash? What type is data partition? If it is still f2fs then we may again hit this fingertip/data partition lost issue as f2fs is not stable and reliable as exr4.
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] propi62:
my data fs changed from ext4 to f2fs by dirty updating to latest rom. i did not factory reset.

//edit

(There is a much easier way: Backup only Data, format Data to ext4, change in TWRP formt to -rm and restore Data...reboot.)

tried to convert to ext4 with backup and resotre did not work.
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] pa.ko:
I don't understand: twrp backup then format to extr then restore - didn't work? Or what didn't work?

BTW the ROM messed things up by changing format to f2fs. So ROM should be fixed.
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] srg84:
You should reinstall GApps after dirty update, and all programs located in System or Vendor partitions....
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] propi62:
Yes, did not work. I could choose the backup file but restore ended with error: no partition selected.

However, i started from scratch with ext4 again.
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] magnamentis:
restoring works perfectly well when done right.

feel free to clean install each time, my point is only to avoid the impression that restores don't work.

One has to make sure that all partitions are mounted but then with a bit of stamina and trial it should be feasible for everyone.

all such issues are based on user errors, this is a 100% fact, some forget gapps, others chose a bad flashing order etc. etc.

the greatest difficulty (challenge) nowadays seems to be that other than 2 years ago, when more or less all devices worked similarly to flash, backup, restore etc. nowaday from my 5 devices of which 3 are 0-2 years old, none works the same way unfortunately and this opens

all doors to use the same flashing pattern on one device that just worked well on another and "bäng" ****ed up"

best practice is to follow the flashing instructions in OPs while unfortunately not all devs include the 2-3 different pre-conditions and their proper flashing instrutions in the OP.

clean, dirty, update and coming from other roms are often distinct nowadays, hence be careful, times of downloading and flashing away without further thoughts are mostly gone.
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] tisfomic:
So we neee to flash gapps everytime we dirty update?

Can you post the steps to update from one version to another, up to now i just flash the next version of the rom alone, last time i formatted data to EXT4 also.

Thank you.
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] magnamentis:
yes, that's one of the things that >2 years ago were included in the script to backup and reapy gapps (apps) and now it often is the case that system apps are gone or broken after an update without flashing gapps.

also gapps and the rom have to be flashed in one go on this device while on my A/B devices one first has to flash rom then reboot recovery and then flash gapps to hit the correct slot (slot a or slot b)

if someone installs the rom on the this device and either reboots into recovery and/or into system things are ****ed up, in such a case a restore is an important help to get back to previous and repeat the process correctly this time.
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] tisfomic:
Thank you for your brief and good explanation. So after dirty i will flash gapps and firmware also as i read that it is needed in order to keep the firmwares settings.

[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Bonegrindifier:
I have also experienced data corruption. Messaging app database got corrupted. Latest images got corrupted and messages I had sent disappeared. Gboard lost all settings. Another app lost all settings and data and acted as if I cleared it's data. A few random system settings were reset (touch vibration turned itself off and battery percentage was no longer displayed. Potentially others). I'm not sure when exactly it happened but it must have been sudden and all at once. I'm afraid it might happen again. Running 07/19 build.

What can I use to report this issue and help identify the culprit?
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] magnamentis:
you can take kernel logs and catlogs/logcats and post them either in

mode or via link to cloud storage for download.

This is just an additional mention of two possible culprits for the few users who faced issues. I'm not claiming anything, just as a heads-up to be verified:

a)

Never flash old gapps, always download latest (of the same day) because flashing old gapps over gapps that were updated, in parts they update in the background without users being aware (playstore, play services etc.) can, no, 90% certainly will cause issues of the kind that some here have described

b)

Check your recoveries, changes of file systems etc. do not happen rom-side, hence chances are high that something with or related to recovery

is messed up or produced a glitch.

I installed this rom via Orange v10 recovery :

Some first remarks:

1) AOD has been removed?

2) After reboot , if you have set data card sim2 it is switched to sim1 and you have to manual change it again

3) Sensor that wakes up device when lifted is very slow
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] palmdude:
You could check if Fsync is disabled on your device (with a kernel manager app like Kernel Auditor). Disabling Fsync can increase performance, but can also cause data loss or data corruption, for example in a crash/reboot. So it better to enable Fsync.
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Bonegrindifier:
Thanks for the tip! So indeed Fsync must have been disabled by default in this rom (i did not change this setting and did a clean flash of the rom last week on a new phone straight from MIUI). So this means it probably was a system crash that lead to the data loss?

I'll re-enable it for now and be and keep logs for future random system crashes to identify the source. The one that must have lead to the data loss happened while the phone was in my pocket...

I'll post an update next time it crashes.
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] pa.ko:
Thank you! This is most useful post here regarding this data corruption issue.

Good we finally narrowed down probable cause which passes elementary engineering logic.

Hope OP will learn something and change this option.

As much more experienced ppl here concluded, this option is not good for any non-rock-stable ROMs. And any custom ROM should be considered unstable... until proven to be rock-solid

[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MrColdbird:
Hi there, OP here. I can't shake this feeling that you've got a grudge with me, as such, let me clarify a few things here.

I never disabled fsync to begin with, as such your blame is misguided.

This is a default kernel setting in Resurrected Kernel (which we use as this ROMs default kernel) and as such this silently slipped into the ROM without my knowledge.

If you have any gripes with stability and want to contribute, feel free to get involved, fix issues and send me pull requests over at my Github page which is linked in all my XDA DevDB OP posts.

Non-the-less, I will update the device trees later today to work around this kernel default and ensure that fsync is enabled on boot.

Current users will receive an OTA with said changes later today.
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] propi62:
Omg this is so cool.

I flashed build 29.7 with the orange fox and magisk was automatically installed. I dont know a setting to enable magisk on rom flash.

Maybe ota will install magisk too?

///Edit

Received ota.:

///Edit2

Magisk still good. Perfect ota.
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] magnamentis:
If you follow the installation process on your display you shall see how magisk is installed and it has been like this before as far as i can remember, did not pay special attention each time but i remember that i've seen it beeing installed with the rom zip.

As to fsync, i usually turn that off and had 2-3 issues in 10 years but it should be mentioned that in case of disabling fsync for

performance it is recommended to tweak kernel settings to most stability, i.e. voltages, min. frequencies, buffer, schedulers as well as governors.

On the other hand, newer devices, even mid-range hardware, is so powerful as compared to > 3 years ago that leaving fsync on does not make that big of a difference anymore. I often use my Nexus 6 for performance comparison. It was quite a good device when it was new and lags so much behind my new oneplus and significantly behind our MM3 that itself lags behind the OP.

In other words, i recommend to leave fsync on, some kernel devs even disabled the feature in their kernels and/or kernel apps, it's kind of obsolete.
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] tisfomic:
Should i correct something on my end if i havent received the OTA yet? Updater says update check failed.

TWRP unofficial.
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] magnamentis:
Normally only official roms can make use of that updater app, for now you have to do it manually and in case you are using themes and root it's anyways safer this way.

The updater on my oneplus (same rom) works quite well but root can get lost sometimes, also no big issue but manually done in the right flashing order is a no-brainer, hence i recommend it.
