No, it's not. You can use TWRP without any problem because dipper is no A/B device. TWRP is the much mightier tool, so I'd not recommend to install the LOS recovery on dipper.

[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] riyosakura:
Hello there everyone. is there some noticeable bug with this ROM?

I'm using miui eu atm, but the security patch is still 2020 december, which is I think very outdated and making some problem such as no rcs features, etc.

will I notice some difference if I switch to this ROM?

something like, lower quality instagram story/live feature, or lower camera quality, since probably this ROM will not support the default Miui camera?

And what about the battery compare to the miui one? mostly the phone will be use by my wife, so I hope there will be no daily problem to solve with the ROM.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] G A S T:
This ROM has no noticable flaws at all.

Why are you asking about istagram storylines/features? What should that have to do with the ROM?

Of course you will lose you proprietary stock cam with MIUI but there are plenty of very good GCam Mods for Mi 8 and the stock LOS cam isn't too bad (but probably missing some important features you'd like to use).

Battery comparision is useless. This is a Android 11 build, so how to compare with plenty old MIUI. It's not clear which GApps / Apps are used frequently and how your prefered settings look like. This has much more inflzence on the battery usage tgan the ROM.

Only people who switched recently from latest MIUI (like you are going to do now) could give you a halfway properly battery performance comparison between the two ROMs. I am on board here since LOS 16.0. Infrag is a great maintainer who is concentrating his great work on this one, specific device. From my experience I will undoubtly move further to LOS 19.1, when it's time to do so.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] riyosakura:
When a ROM doesn't have proprietary blob from the original vendor, it tend to have some problem regarding to the hardware performance. It is why, I'm asking if there will be some minor performance decrease in some app especially because of it's not using the proprietary blob. if there is no performance decrease then its great.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] urigg:
Actually, its possible to run ANXCamera, a modified version of the Miui camera app.

You'll need Magisk, patch some Miui core libraries, patch some more ANX patches, and then the modified app. It even has the annoying Xiaomi water mark and cryptic options to disable it again. But there are some good (and easier) alternatives too.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] procyon77:
hello,

could you mention about alternatives? i'm too lazy for installing anx but i missed xiaomi cam :) im just using gcam

thanks in advance
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] urigg:
None that are Xiaomi based, as far as I know. Variants of Google cam or free camera apps.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] infrag:
As I've said before lineage official stance is that we can't hide unlocked bootloader.

1 little kernel change is all that required to fix this for our device. Then most banking apps work including Google pay. Some banking apps also check build signature so user debug in build prop file also needs to get edited if you run into that problem. ( I don't do this)

Flashing a kernel with this fix is probably all you'd need to fix gpay at least.

Hi

Congrats on the new phone.

Unfortunately times change and so do communities. Sometimes you can pick a super popular phone and the community lasts a long time. Other times it starts well and fizzles. I can't speak for others but life for me has been hectic with covid and therefore less time with things I enjoy.

Hope your new phone goes well.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Hujkis:
The high-pitch noise during calls issue persist even after the latest upgrade. Realistically, it is impossible to make a call without a headset.

Is there anything I can do?

Hope you're doing well @infrag !
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] infrag:
I dont have this problem so its hard for me to fix it to be honest.

I've been told its a feedback issue from some of you guys. Is it a particular mic causing the problem? If you block them with your finger one at a time can you tell if it makes it better or worse?
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Hujkis:
Yeah it's a weird one all right.

We've done some tests now and it's a bit inconclusive. What my partner reports that it works ok when she took the phone out of the case (WTF?). She also says the noise was triggered when she covered top mic and ran across the bottom grille with a finger (and vice-versa). Calling via signal is totally fine.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] infrag:
OK.

Any chance you can take 2 separate logcats?

Make one of when you call using signal and one when you call when you have the problem.

I'm not sure if Android still logs which input its using during a call but it used to. Perhaps I can figure out the different mic paths its using based on that.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Hujkis:
Sure, I'll try in the evening. Do I clear the logcat before each call? Or some other procedure, like reboot?

Thanks!
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] infrag:
dont worry about clearing logs.

just turn off screen and back on again so I can find that point in logs then
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] G A S T:
I can confirm that it exists. Recognized it often after last thurstay. It seems to be a sort of oversteering. After checking the latest changelog I don't get which specific update set could have caused that phenomenon. When the connection is established via Bluetooth (e. g. the head unit of my car) there is no such trouble.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] rossomike1966:
@infrag

for me too

I have flashed many Rom with A12 to try to solve, and they all have the same problem. Only with the PE+ 11 I do not have this problem (update December 21); I think this depends on security patches, but I don't know exactly.

So just that it's very annoying to hear the echo of your voice in the microphone. With the BT of the car instead no problem.

@infrag

how can I import my google drive backup to LOS 18.1.? does not find it..

I find only a seedvault option. how can I recover and install it?
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] darealthing:
I installed /e/OS this weekend, same issue (perhaps a bit less, but I think it's just my imagination).

@infrag, let me ask again, why are there e.g. patches 326145, 326146 from branch lineage-18.1-caf-msm8953 (snapdragon 625) in our dipper branch if dipper has a sd845? Could it be that there are some patches in the dipper repository that don't belong in there and messed up the configuration? It's the amplification factor of the bottom mic in my opinion.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] infrag:
Most likely because the same patches applied to our device also.

However I'm happy to check if you can tell me which commit in the dipper repo you are referring to?
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] darealthing:

https://review.lineageos.org/c/LineageOS/android_hardware_qcom_audio/+/326146

...basically all that stuff from here: https://review.lineageos.org/q/topic:msm8953-hal-bringup

I don't know the propper way to trace back any changes starting from the dipper build-script, but according to https://download.lineageos.org/dipper/changes/ these modifications made it into dipper LOS 18.1.

And msm8953 = Snapdragon 625, which is suspicious. Also the time these changes were commited would match.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] infrag:

[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] darealthing:
well not really... "hal: FIX CFI errors" just can't be it. Since you and others don't seem to be affected, is it perhaps related to the firmware? There's a guy reporting the same issue here: https://gitlab.com/LineageOS/issues/android/-/issues/4500

and he has baseband string "AT40.c2.6-331-0409", mine is "AT4.0.c2.6-331-0409_2214_eaafd44"

Can I update the firmware somehow easily and safely?

[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] androidalexm:
I have had this problem since months, and till these days noone seemed to notice it. I have been looking for a solution on the internet since the first day I had it, but this is absolutely unknown to the majority of people.

What I'm trying to say is that this isn't a recent issue, I have been using lineageos for about a year now and i have never had such a problem until some months ago. The issue is to find in less recent builds, I think.

If I can do something I'll be happy to help, just let me know what you guys need to diagnosticate the problem.

P.s. : I have been updating my phone quite regularly (almost every week, using official los updater) since I first installed los. Recently I have even done a complete format (also internal memory, as I was running out ahah) and installed last update. The problem is still here.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] darealthing:
Yes, maybe many people didn't notice as the majority seems to use loudspeakers, bluetooth or whatsapp calls nowadays. Anyway, there was some activity in android_kernel_xiaomi_sdm845 ... I also wonder if other phones with sdm845 on lineageos are affected (like poco f1)

well i've built a test kernel from the lineage-17.1 tree.

boot3.img

drive.google.com

However I compiled it for lineage-19.1 as thats what I'm using. It may not boot for 18.1

I did a test build with lineage-17.1 qcom audio repo and this made no difference.

I've tried OSS audio hal which also made no difference.

I've tried stock audio configs which also made no difference.

I'm not sure if this hold swipe your finger over the mic thing has always been there or not...

I'm having trouble with pictures being blurry when sending via MMS. I have no idea why or what could be causing the issue and it's driving me nuts. I did notice the picture was being resized to 480x640 but I have not changed anything at all (not on purpose anyway) and I've checked everywhere on the phone I can think of but I cannot find anything that could be causing the issue. I did receive two OTA's within the past couple of weeks but I really doubt those are the cause of this issue.

Anyone have ideas as to what it could be? I've attached some pictures to hopefully better help explain what I mean.

[Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers] HoshiYamazaki:
Hey, so I wanted to install MIUI 10 with Android 9 on my Xiaomi Mi6 6/64 and I was not able, instead I was forced to download ROM directly from Xiaomi servers (bagota.d.miui.com), also recovery image was not working under Orange Fox 9.0 so I used fastboot, and I got it.

But I'm little scared about that Pie update have bugs and so thus this is why it got rollbacked? I'm not sure, but maybe really it got rollbacked? But why there is no any information and I was forced to do my own research via google?

http://en.miui.com/download-326.html

Maybe it's working only in OTA but OTA updates were not working for me since I got Magisk and unblocked BT? I got "wait minute or two" error when on Android 8 I choosed "Install from selected package" but I don't got it working tho.

Guys I have deleted the latest 11/10/2019 builds because a lot of people reported that the fingerprint unlock speed isn't sound, and also they were facing serious problems regarding dead sensors, I'll try to push a new build as soon as possible. And also a good news, I'll be also pushing PixelExperience - 10 (Beta) builds soon ;)
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Guides, News, & Discussion] eagors93:
The ROM is seriously AMAZING and I'm considering to donate. Thank you for the great work.

However, one major issue I've had is that the fingerprint sensor doesn't always work. I've tried to adjust some settings of the lock screen, to no avail. It works most of the time, it's just that sometimes after not using the phone for a few minutes, the fingerprint sensor becomes unresponsive, as if the service is not active or something. I'm on the PLUS version.

Also, switching between Bluetooth audio devices seems problematic sometimes (I have a speaker that needs reconnecting manually sometimes, it was working flawlessly on MIUI global).

P.S. Does anyone know why if I boot into TWRP and enter the password to decrypt my storage to access it ONCE, it gets decrypted permanently (only the lock screen password works, but no prompt for password before booting ROM plus the files in the file manager of TWRP are 100% visible - therefore for sure not encrypted)?

P.S.2 Is clean flash required for all the future new updates? Meaning, I have to reconfigure the device from scratch after flashing every time?
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Guides, News, & Discussion] pranayadmn:

Alright man, I see! Even more impressive to find out that you're just 13 - good job!

Should I clean flash if I want to downgrade to 2019-09-26 build?

Edit: I found out the device gets permanent decrypted on its own. I wonder if it is because of the fingerprint issue... Will check on the previous build.

Edit 2: the device gets decrypted once I allow permissions to some apps that require Ease of Access options - in my case, assistive touch applications (I tested a few of them). Strange indeed. I tested these two apps among some others:
