Check your wakelocks and other apps, because the idle and deep sleep should be fine.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Sir_Bommel:
It's not while ideling. It's while taking a phone call or watching twitch. I had LOS on my phone before and there I did not have souch a high battery drain.

I am going to use this rom for a little longer probably I can give you some more feedback.

And thx for your great work and fast response!
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] listwon:
How can I check my wakelocks? I installed greenify and did an underclock in kernel adiutor but battery life still isn't particularly great :/

Best rom

Hello from Potugal,

After a few months with this rom , finally I can say, zero issues!

Many thanks,
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] jjpprrrr:
It is an issue in Google's CarrierSettings. There will be a new build coming soon with reverted CarrierSettings and the good old CarrierConfig.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] ElRocha:
Thanks, but I find it weird, since it only happened today and not when i updated. Do you have an eta on the new build? I can also test some test builds if you want.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] jjpprrrr:
Apps like BetterBatteryStats or Franco Kernel Manager can monitor wakelocks.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] listwon:
And do you think I should change the kernel? I've heard opinions that it really can improve battery life.

Is it ok that CPU-Z shows all cores working at maximum even when idle?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] ElRocha:
I managed to solve the mobile data issue by creating a new apn with my carrier's settings. Somehow that even made the stock apn work again.

Hello, I'm wondering if some can tell me if is good this Rom GAMING? Thank you

I noticed that with the last build phone started to occasionally reboot. Does anyone encounter this?

Thanks!
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Sir_Bommel:
Had this 2 times but didn't care about it. Once it crashed while using.

Edit:Typo

Update

05/24/2020

**Device Specific Changes:**

- Upstreamed kernel to Linux 4.9.224

- Brought back CarrierConfig

- Fixed aux camera (telephoto)

* now gcam with properly implemented aux support can use telephoto camera (tested on PitbulL gcam)

- Merged display HAL from CAF LA.UM.8.3.r1-07200-sdm845.0

* bumped vendor.display.config to 1.9

* increased max_frame_buffer_acquired_buffers to 3

* for the buttery smooth experience

- If you use the latest OrangeFox recovery and see errors flashing incremental package, please

* run "rm /system" in OrangeFox's terminal (or connect to a computer and run it in adb shell)

* then install the incremental package

* you will NOT lose any data. This is simply deleting a symlink for SAR support.

- Known issue: some carriers may not have APN auto selected

Random reboots should be fixed in this build, since default kernel has been changed.

Hi,

I got one question. I got 2 SIM Cards in my Phone. Is there a way to deactivate one without taking it out of the Phone? Didn't find a way.

Thx for your help.

Still the same APN issue on the new build....
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] ElRocha:
I managed to solve it by creating a new apn profile with the carrier settings and the stock one started working. Idk how, though.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] fatnemesis:
No, there doesn't seem to be a way. This is why I'm still on Android 9 PE. This is the issue with all 10 roms, see i.e. https://www.reddit.com/r/LineageOS/comments/gc4exa/cant_disable_sim_in_los_171/
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] jjpprrrr:
It would be great if you can get in touch with me on telegram and let me know about your carrier and the APN specs that you have issue with. XDA is simply not efficient to discuss back and forth.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] maximushugus:
The last build works really well for me at the moment.

Android Auto is fixed.

I didn't experience reboot or battery drain for the moment.

For the APN, first it didn't work, but after switching APN and going back to the first, it works
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] joaopalmeira09:
Please see attached the APN settings for my carrier NOS Portugal
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] joaopalmeira09:
Put some elbow grease on this matter, erased everything, formatted the phone and re-installed the whole shabang and now no more issues... 4g data working and everything ok! ?

- If you use the latest OrangeFox recovery and see errors flashing incremental package, please

* run "rm /system" in OrangeFox's terminal (or connect to a computer and run it in adb shell)

* you will NOT lose any data. This is simply deleting a symlink for SAR support.

**PE side changes**

- Minor improvements

can someone help me, i don't wantto mess the phone, i'm still on Pixel experience with android 9 (flashed it like a year ago), can i flash full pixel exprience android 10 and thats all or i need to change to miui or something like that?

thanks!!!!
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] jjpprrrr:
I would suggest you to update your custom recovery first, because the old one may not fully support android 10. Then, backup all your stuff on the phone, wipe system/data/cache/dalvik cache, and install the ROM. You do not need to flash MIUI, because firmware and vendor are both included in the current PE build.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] joaopalmeira09:
Ohh, come on... After having the ROM flashed clean as a whistle everything was working fine, now mobile data gone again... ???

Update: after 2 reboots all working now ?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Dranoel18:
So glad the tele cam works now!! What camera app do you guys think goes best with this rom?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] joaopalmeira09:
So everything was working great, got a random reboot and mobile data stopped working...
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] pjhhjp1:
I am using it very well, always thank you. Please contact us. I am using Dual SIM, but I am writing a phone call and message as my first SIM. Data is being used for the second time, but if you check the data during a call, the data will not be returned after the call. I'd like to check if it's only me.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] jjpprrrr:
Can you contact me through telegram instead? You do not have any contact info attached to your XDA account.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] maximushugus:
With the latest ROM the APN issue is still present for me but can be solved easely : if I creat an other APN profil, I can swith to the new one, and after switching back to the old good one provided by my carrier, it works.

I can share my APN if it helps, I'm from France with SFR as a carrier
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] jjpprrrr:
Does the correct APN get selected after reboot?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] maximushugus:
When I reboot, the correct one is selected but doesn't work (no data) I have to manualy select the new random one I created (or the second one provided by my carrier) to switch back to the good one, and then data works.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] jjpprrrr:
It sounds like the same issue as the one on Vodafone PT. According to the tester on Vodafone PT, at least the 0528 version solved it upon a clean flash. I'm not sure if a clean flash would work for you as well. I also have a new test build waiting for him to test, so feel free to contact me through telegram if you'd like to try it as well.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] maximushugus:
It's not a problem for me as I know how to fix it and I reboot my phone only for updating the ROM ;) I just posted it here for other people that could have the problem
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] joaopalmeira09:
The carrier is NOS PT not Vodafone. And issue came up again after a random reboot. I've tried to add a new APN profile but system doesn't allow me to. I'm now using april's stable version since issue came up. I really love this ROM but if the APN issue isn't solved on next build i'll have to change ROM, sorry...
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] jjpprrrr:
No. I was talking about another user who contacted me through telegram, and tested many test builds. if you'd like to talk to me through telegram, I have a test build that will very likely solve your problem. We have tracked down to a source change in PE after May, and that may have caused the APN issues for many carriers.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] mztq:
Hi guys, another issue i'd like to mention is weird Bluetooth behavior. Sometimes it refuses to make calls from my car being connected: everything goes fine until other party picks the phone. Car audio says "something went wrong with connection to phone". Or when I connect to my Bluetooth speaker, the volume is much lower than it has to be, or even it is silent (but playback goes on). Phone reboot fixes everything.

I believe this started in May, a few builds ago, hard to say exactly, sorry.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] mztq:
And one more thing I've noticed: looks like there is a setting in android telling that the phone has a "notch", like latest iphones. When there are a lot of notifications, their icons do not take the whole bar at the top, but about one third of it. Can it be tuned please?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] hakurin:
Smooth and stable rom. It seems something wrong with the flash guide. Wipe system & data & cache & dalvik cache

I downloaded OTA from the phone settings (OTA approx. 100 mb) and then tried installing from the menu, but it did not allow the installation - error, then I installed OTA through Orange Fox recovery (100mb OTA) and was successfully installed. Is it possible to install OTA from phone settings, or what is my mistake that I cannot install from settings?

P.S.: firmware 9.11.7

Thanks
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] N1xen:
Is it possible to use the latest firmware 20.1.16? will this affect performance?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] jjpprrrr:
No, it should not. Firmware installation does not affect any of the partition (system/data/cache/dalvik cache/vendor) you normally wipe, and my users have been following these instructions for months without issue.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] jjpprrrr:
I have not tested it yet, and I do not know. Xiaomi does not open source their firmware, and we have no idea what changes they've made. Please use the recommended firmware version.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] jjpprrrr:
It is recovery related. We are waiting for a fix from TWRP/OrangeFox

I used twrp to flash into this ROM. I downloaded and installed it immediately after receiving the update, but twrp does not seem to accept this update.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] jjpprrrr:
You either need to update TWRP or just use OrangeFox. I personally recommend OrangeFox over TWRP because it usually gives me less problem.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] laojiefang:
But I use the latest twrp
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] ACARAGIA:
Best is Orange Fox

Is it possible to encrypt PE? And after encryption i can update phone?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] jjpprrrr:
OrangeFox will flash "disable forced encryption" by default. You can turn it off in settings. After that, you probably need to format data and re-install the ROM.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] jjpprrrr:
No there's no notch defined in the device source code. The current layout is the default android 10 behavior.

Thanks for this ROM. I've been using it for a while and no issues except APN. After every reboot I have a message in APNs "Access Point Name settings are not available for this user" and then I have to reinsert SIM card. Has anyone such a issue?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] aurocha:
In think this has already been dealt with, and that error is gone, so, surely it'll be fixed in the next build. [MENTION=9585779]jjpprrrr[/MENTION] shared a build I'm using for PE+ with everything working. If he doesn't mind, I can share it with you.

Mind you that it's PE Plus.

Undoubtedly this is the best rom for our Mi Mix 2s. Feels like an official rom, well optimized and good battery life. There is just 2 things missing for me. The ability to show battery percentage at status bar and the ability to disable sim 1 or 2. I hope this will be added to future updates

i'm having issues installing update. after installing the rom neither orangefox nor twrp ask for my pattern to decrypt the storage.. i'm not sure what i'm doing wrong but since it happens with both recoverys i'm guessing i can ask here!

can someone help me? thanks!
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] jjpprrrr:
Are you able to see files correctly in recovery? If yes, that means your partition is not encrypted, and any recovery should not ask you for password or pattern. If not, and what you see is a bunch of random characters as file names, then either your recovery is too old to support android 10 encryption (not likely since you've mentioned trying both twrp and orangefox), or something is screwed on your partition. If updating your recovery does not solve the issue, I would suggest backing up all your stuff if you can, and format data partition, then install the ROM again.

expecting a new feature in Pixel Experience ROM for MI Mix 2S Polaris

I've tried the latest version of Pixel Experience ROM for the device Xiaomi Polaris (MI mix 2s), and it tastes really good.

However, the function "Multi-boxing" (Multi-account, for example, two or more accounts) has been applied more and more universally nowadays. For instance, two WhatsApp's (one original, one cloned), two WeChat's and so on.

So, may I propose that the author possibly adds / actualizes this function by integrating the source codes into the ROM (as a native function in the ROM, not that be actualized by a third-party App).

So could we expect this being available in the next or future versions?

If only this could be true, this ROM can be called an extreme perfection.

i know there are no feature request for pixel experience, but is there for plus? and i dont know if this is the place to do it, but i cant find a place on the official PE website.

if so, request is to have option to disable the post-screenshot popup (containing the long screenshot and other options). i never use those options and i take a lot of screenshots. they are very annoying and make the taps irregular too. what i mean is when i tap/drag the screen to get rid of the popup, it doesnt register the drag correctly and sometimes causes me to misclick things.
