Hello. Firstly, it does not seem necessary to wipe the system partition, but AFAIK, the data partition is the one that is encrypted, not system? I would need to check, but agreed, wiping system is not required.

It seems that getting GSI ROMs to work can be a bit flaky. I have had similar experiences, including with PixelExperience, where I could not get it to boot. Keep bashing away and sometimes it will boot. Once it has fully booted once, it will boot systematically. I have had OmniRom, Descendant, HavocOS, ArrowOS, PIxelDust, ResurrectionRemix, ViperOS, EvolutionX, and LiquidRemix GSIs all booting on my Mi 8 Pro (UD).

Thanks for all of your help!

I have the twrp you recommended (downloaded it directly from LR.Team).

I have tried different versions of twrp, and magisk. I was able to get lineage 16 installed and running but messed it up when trying to flash PE gsi over it.

I think considering all of the problems I've had (plus not having much time to mess around because of school) I think I'll wait until something based on Android 10 is released before trying to much else.

does any of the gcam port work for the front camera on this build? The built-in cam works fine but the picture is not as good as the gcam. But none of the gcam port I downloaded works with the front cam ( i suppose because the IR is not working ?)

glad to hear but its the wrong place to post your thread it should be in Q/A. Any moderator please can you move it to its correct destination?

Anyway, short answer nothing or no one is best. One which is best for me may probably be worst for you. Its subjective. Try roms, kernels one by one and stick to the one which seems "best" for you not me.

[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] YasuHamed:
pixel experience is very popular but then ofcourse no one can compete with LinageOS

however both have limited customizations

you should try

Crdroid5.6 (9aug19 is the latest (at present) ) , it has full platter to customize your rom according to yourself!

however

I am on HAVOC 2.6 because of better screen resolution and font and havoc has even deeper customizations (or better organized)

Otimus Drunk kernel , is good ( i have used twisted/arter/sphinx/ and franco)

remember, you must flash vendor image before flashing any rom in twrp or you will get bootloops

https://mirror.akhilnarang.me/MIUI/beryllium/ latest one is 10.3.6 (bottom most)

[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] YasuHamed:
for me most of the vlogger who makes videos for roms touches basis only, the following things i found in almost ALL the videos

1. pubG running smooth

2. Jeo (4g) working fine

3. benchmarks

4. android version

5. you can make calls with no sound problems

however vloggers are more keen to make another video rather than use the rom on deeper level and find bugs

for examples

1. poco f1 ALL CUSTOM roms on 3g USB THETHERING start giving setting carshing, com.android.phone crashing errors where data used goes 1TB in 10 seconds... and System UI begins restarting itself! , network connections gets hung or delayed and you cannot go back to sim settings since com.android.phone keeps crashing as you click your sim setting icon...

now ? who's responsiblity is to test it? ofcourse as user if you are making video atleast test this problem and try to find solution (if not atleast warn the viewers)

2. also pocof1 cannot be mend for mixer path files for volume boost! but no video mentions about it

3. vendor image is required,,, NO video ever said this , i found it in some xyz forum by some member

4. same goes for redmi note 5 pro issues where screen goes off when listening to voice msg! and comes back on after 3 seconds! i changed 2 rn5p on 5-6 roms , all same! but no vide ever mentioned that!

in short! its always best to get opinion from xda forum members (or equivalent)

[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] Aziego:
I am coming from the apple camp so apologies in advance if this sounds dumb. I needed a business phone and did not want to spend the apple money so I bought the Mi 9 and I am using Mint Mobile with it (did I said I was cheap). Anyway having used android tablets I have an idea of how things works but since this is the first time I have an android phone, the communication apps are new to me.

So I am trying to figure out the voicemail thing with this phone. I receive alerts when a new voicemail is received but no notification bubble on the phone app or on the status bar. If I missed the alert, I most likely will not know I have a voicemail. Also checking voicemail seems archaic (press and hold 1 and I have to listen through each VM one by one). I am hoping that I am being dumb and one of you can tell me there is a built in app for to get visual voicemail, so far I haven't found it. Please help and point me to the best way to manage voicemails.

Besides PPSSPP and Dolphin (Gamecube & Wii) are there other emulators that people have tested on the switch?

Personally, I'd like to see PS2 emulation, but I know it's a bit of a stretch. :silly:

Also, what are some favorites that play well on the switch?

I ask for discussion since there isn't a thread around.
[Nintendo Switch News, Guides, Discussion , Develop] nex86:
Drastic and the Beta of Redream should work well.

I guess DamonPS2 should be able to play some lighter games reasonably but don't expect too much.
[Nintendo Switch News, Guides, Discussion , Develop] Nila-sama:
These are the emulators I have downloaded that I can personally confirm work:

-SNES9X, runs all of the SNES games I have flawlessly.

-Mupen64Pluz FZ, runs all of the N64 games I have flawlessly.

-My OldBoy!, runs all GB and GBC games I have flawlessly.

-My Boy!, runs all GBA games I have flawlessly.

-Dolphin MMJ, does not run all Gamecube games I have flawlessly. (further information below)

-nds4droid, does not run all DS games I have flawlessly. (further information below)

-PPSSPP, runs all PSP games I have flawlessly.

-Redream, runs all Dreamcast games I have flawlessly.

I wasn't able to get the regular Dolphin emulator to run Gamcube games, let alone even install Wii games. The Dolphin MMJ version has some lag, but I don't know the proper optimization through settings that is required to get it to run flawlessly. Other users have posted that theirs work flawlessly, but I haven't seen an extensive list of the settings they use.

Nds4droid lags with the Pokemon games. I've tried to download over 15 different DraStic DS emulator APK files and none have worked for me. They kept displaying an error message of not having something. I can't recall exactly off the top of my head at the moment.

Could someone create a foolproof guide in text or video format as to how to get Dolphin and DraStic to run properly?
[Nintendo Switch News, Guides, Discussion , Develop] lordsolrac2:
Well I'd imagine all retro stuff to work flawlessly. Probably everything in the retroarch set really. Really hoping GZDoom and Morrowind work flawless on android as well, while not an emulator nor engine on thing I'm kinda looking forward to is Zenonia and Chaos Rings, should it actually run

As for setting up Dolphin; there's this at least
[Nintendo Switch News, Guides, Discussion , Develop] Nila-sama:
If someone gets Morrowind running, I'd definitely be interested in playing that as I've never played it before.

Unfortunately, that tutorial doesn't help me because I didn't need the Octopus application since the Joy Con fix works with Dolphin MMJ. I'm referring to the graphical and enhancement settings in Dolphin.

DraStic runs perfectly bought from the playstore.
[Nintendo Switch News, Guides, Discussion , Develop] spenat:
DraStic works fine for me, too. It does show some kind of an pop-up error at the beginning, but the emulator itself works fine afterwards.

When it comes to other emulators besides DraStic:

PPSSPP: Played only Star Wars: The Force Unleashed, emulator is working great, although SW: TFU does have *some* slowdowns (but this is the same across all platforms, so very probably not a performance issue), but overall completely playable.

When it comes to games:

Star Wars: KOTOR: I am using version 1.0.9 (from Amazon Appstore) and it works perfectly (including gamepad right out of the box).

GTA: San Andreas: Working fine, but the sticks are not working for movements. Buttons work fine.

Half-Life 2: Native Tegra version, works perfectly fine.

Will continue to edit this post.

[Nintendo Switch News, Guides, Discussion , Develop] thatmellon:
My list of emulators are as follows; for everything else I use retroarch.

PSX:

Epsxe - nice psx emulator, works exactly how you would imagine a box standard emulator to work and does the job quite well. Can’t say any downsides to this emulator

Fpse: my favourite out of the two, upscales into HD and even forces a widescreen that doesn’t end in a stretched out mess. Honestly this emulator will make tekken 3 look like tekken 6 (a slight over exaggeration but it’s worth it). The downside is there is no free version and it’s gonna cost you a couple of quid/dollars.

Dreamcast:

Reicast- it works as well as it’s lakka version only this time you can dock the switch for TV. Has a widescreen hack and looks quite nice in places although some textures don’t work right (shenmue need more than a plaster to cover that hole in his face). Downsides are some games don’t work.

Redream - works great, all games I’ve tried run fine including stupid invaders (if that’s what you’re into) that being said, that game doesn’t get past the Sega logo in reicast so this emulator offers more support! I can’t remember if you have to pay for it though and just like reicast it doesn’t support “win ce” games like resident evil 2.

PS2:

Damonps2 - runs a little worse than dolphin, I haven’t found a single game I could consider as playable in that emulator but it shows promise and apparently is due an upgrade that will offer a lot of speed up. This emulator has seen some controversy because the dev ripped off code from the pc version of psx2 and I believe there’s some lawsuit involved. Has the most drawbacks. The free version won’t let you save and the paid version asks for your **** size amongst all over personal data as well as it won’t work if you’re offline or use the xposed frame network. It also shuts itself if you have Magisk installed. To get it to work again you have to hide the application with Magisk hide.

DS:

Drastic - you might have to pay but damn is it worth it. Looks amazing and can swap your screens instantly by pressing the thumb sticks in, not so great for games that utilise both screens at once like Sonic Rush but plays great!!

Like I say everything else I use retroarch for.
[Nintendo Switch News, Guides, Discussion , Develop] lordsolrac2:
For PSX I'd honestly recomend RetroArch (Both android and HorizonOS). It already has Upscaling and it's free. As for Tekken 3 to Tekken 6, I'd yet to find out, haha.

I'm Glad that the Dreamcast works great!! Do you have any recommendations?

PS2- I kinda expected that. Have you tried the Play! Emulator?

DS- Can you do anti aliasing or Upscaling?

I'm currently in the process of getting it on the switch (Had a week long exam) but I'll gladly report any findings I get as well.
[Nintendo Switch News, Guides, Discussion , Develop] thatmellon:
Well it’s the widescreen hack that sells Fpse for me, epsxe has one but the graphics flicker a bit. Although I think epsxe runs games better, I do get graphical issues when using the gl plugin. (Tekken 6 for PSP... at a push haha).

I’d recommend using redream for Dreamcast as it offers more support. I’m a big fan of the sonic games and hey run perfectly. I have a lot of fighters on there to and it’s much easier to set up 2 player with redream.

I haven’t managed to get play! working yet, retroarch crashes when I boot it and any app I’ve installed from google searches don’t work or are fake (or maybe I’m doing something wrong).

Yes, the DS can do anti aliasing, I can’t describe how nice they look upscaled. Especially the more 3D heavy games, run really smooth too! Loads of options, i’d Recommend having a look at a few reviews, but it runs amazing in the switch.

I’ve recently downloaded arc browser after a few days of trying to fathom the very poor tutorials of setting up Hyperspin. It’s a nice GUI to load all your games for different emulators in one app. It’s nice to look through all my roms with added cover art and fan art, it does cost like £8 though.

I will add that all emulators I’ve tried to run made by “Robert Broglia” like MD.EMU and Neo Geo emulators do not work in docked mode, it’s almost as though the apps themselves just don’t understand what it is. I managed to get a Sega CD game running through MD.emu docked when I loaded the game through arc browser and it loads and plays and then crashes when you exit making it so you have to undock and redock the switch.

[Wing, P4350 General] dbodine:
I am new to synching with Windows Mobile 6 on my T-Mobile Wing, was hoping there was a solution out there for the problem I'm up against. Here is the layout of what I have :

- a T-mobile Wing with WM6 and ActiveSync

- a Windows Vista computer with Microsoft Outlook 2007 and WMDC

- a Microsoft Exchange account for work with OWA

I sync everything on the Wing and Vista/Outlook 2007 setup effortlessly with either USB or Bluetooth, that's not a problem. Currently I sync emails only from the Exchange account using Outlook Web Access through ActiveSync on the Wing. What I would really like to do is to be able to sync the calendar/tasks from my Exchange account to the Wing, but to PREVENT writing my personal appointments/reminders/tasks from Outlook up to my Exchange account. I don't think my company needs to know when I'm mowing the lawn or taking my kids to the dentist....however, I really value having that personal stuff synched up on both the Wing and Vista/Outlook. Is such one-way synching even possible? Is there another program out there besides ActiveSync that can do this? I have seen some descriptions on the web of how to make an older version of ActiveSync perform this way, but the version that I have never seemed to have the right options or tabs available.

So to sum up, the dilemma is, I'd like to sync my Exchange calendar/tasks to my Wing, but not have any calendar/task items from the Wing or the Vista PC make it back to the Exchange server. If more information is needed, I will be happy to provide any details that I can.

Thanks, great forum.

Phone started to reboot and goes into Android Recovery with only 2 options, "Try Again" or "Factory data reset", selecting either juts goes to scrolling white G screen and eventually ends back up in Android Recovery.

How do I get out of this? How can I get back into twrp or fastboot?

Hard power it down (long power button until off) and get into fastboot mode with the key combo (volume down +power). Fastboot flash the boot.img to get rid of root. See #6 in the guide you posted.
