There have been some changes in DesckClock recently, maybe this issue will be fixed. A lot of improvements in the kernel too.

Yes, I will update the ROM. There have not been really visible ground-breaking changes, so I delayed a bit, but a lot of improvements under the hood. Globally the rom should be even more stable and smooth...

About pre-installed apps I made a few changements though:

- OpenBoard (from F-Droid) replaces AOSP keyboard: basically the same, with more themes and a few nice options (swipe on space bar to move cursor, swipe to delete from backspace bar)

- I will remove DuckDuckGo, I'm not really convinced finally, and everyone can install it from F-Droid. I will put back Jelly, the lineage browser, but will preset DDG as search engine, and will add a few ones (Qwant, StartPage, Ecosia at least).

- I will add a nice new Notes app called Carnet, from F-Droid. Even if it's still in its infancy (version 0.20), it's very promising.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Minux31:
Glad to see you will continue, I'm still on your rom, better than all I've tested in term of stability and battery life :good:

I even tried to use a Los build without any gapps (I've built it for testing docker on my new desktop), but some apps need at least MicroG to work correctly (like Gcam for example), so I prefer your Los with MicroG

Great news that you will put Openboard in the rom and that you will leave stock lineage browser, I've tested it and it's good.

For notes, I'm using SimpleNote (unfortunatly not open source : https://simplenote.com/ ) for cloud saving and easy sharing notes, will take a look at Carnet, thanks for sharing new apps ;)

impatient to test the next build :D
[Xiaomi Mi 9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] kouzinger:
Great, great, great!

Thanks a lot for this ROM!

Knowing about its existence was my decisive factor to chose the MI9 despite not (yet??) having official los.

But still I was insecure whether an inofficial ROM based on los 17.1 would be stable enough for everyday use.

After 5 days now (and 1 week of waiting for Xiaomi to unlock beforehand) I'm totally happy with this phone and your ROM.

What I love in particular is that you include microg (I used to go with lineage.microg.org),

that you try to push even further away from google,

that you include Aurora Store + FDroid + their respective helper-apps

that you adopt features from other ROMs (I never did that before but it makes perfectly sense)

Actually I think I got more than i would've dared to expect :)

THANKS!

P.S.: For newly interested installers I'd like to point out that I had to flash TWRP AND vbmeta from https://xdaforums.com/Mi-9/development/recovery-unofficial-twrp-xiaomi-mi-9-t3905825 before I could get this ROM to start.

P.P.S.: In case somone's interested my most important software-additions: Magisk, edXposed, XprivacyLua, GCam, Nine (for complete Exchange-Support), Bromite, Xposed Edge pro (for efficient thumb-operation with totally removed navigation-bar for maximum screen estate), GMD Gesture Control (for 2-handed operation), Taskbar (from F-Droid; for efficient multitasking and an optimized start menu)
[Xiaomi Mi 9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] vince31fr:
You're welcome !
[Xiaomi Mi 9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] vince31fr:
Well, microG just requires a small patch to be applied, you can do it yourself then if you succeeded in building los ;)

Thanks for your suggestion of OpenBoard! I tried many other keyboards without being really convinced, this one is a nice one for keeping the simplicity of aosp keyboard with some useful additions...

simplenote seems more mature, but as far as I can see, is not open source ? I prefer trying to search open source alternatives... except for gps navigation, still did not find any open source app with trafic information... if someone has a better suggestion to replace Magic Earth, feel free to tell.

Edit: my mistake, simplenote is open source... I'll test it!

In a few days I think. But no ground-breaking additions... I'm not in the process of constantly including new features !
[Xiaomi Mi 9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] vince31fr:
Thanks for you comments! And don't hesitate if you have ideas to improve (either features from other roms, or apps)... I am very cautious for importing features from other roms, as I don't want to diverge too much from los mainly for stability and maintainability issues, but I am completely open-minded for new ideas. I imported the two things that I really missed, but maybe I could consider a few more additions.

But recall, and this message is for everyone, that the real tough work is made by [MENTION=5994357]Cozzmy13[/MENTION] which maintains and constantly improves the device tree tailored for los. He also made several contributions to the core of lineage, now officially included. He also kindly answered several times when I had problems, giving me some crucial information... So if you have a few bucks to spend for supporting free software, please consider making a donation to him!
[Xiaomi Mi 9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Minux31:
Well, if you quickly show me where the patch is, I'll try to build it ! Do you just cherry-pick or have you your own github to save modifications ?

I suppose you add MicroG packages too ?

After your message, I tried Carnet wich is good, but I realised that I already had a nextcloud account and I tried nexcloud notes on it, wich is good too, so goodbye to Simplenote ;)

Good to see that, I prefer stable rom than multi options non stable roms (who said Havoc ? :D )

Thanks for all your efforts :)
[Xiaomi Mi 9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] vince31fr:
I have adapted the patch for Pie found here: https://github.com/microg/android_packages_apps_GmsCore/tree/master/patches

in this commit: https://github.com/vincentvidal/and...mmit/9580d7afb2c09e5647691045e0d26a9f5b00f92f

Although originally forked from Havoc frameworks_base repo, the branch los-17 is sinced with lineage 17.

Actually many of my github repos are hidden, I'm working on a project around this rom that I can't unveil yet... probably in a near future.

Yes, the apk from F-Droid, as well as all other apps.

Well, this is probably better if you have a nextcloud somewhere... That's why I still prefer including an app like Carnet instead of SimpleNote: there is no need of an account. I would like this rom to be usable for everyone (even if lacking backup/sync/...) without the need for accounts/...

The havoc 2.9 gsi is very stable, I used it for a long time ;)

Problems with Google Camera after latest Upgrade

First: thanks for sharing your upgrades.

It's great, to have SELINUX eforced now.

Adding Carnet was a good pick in my opinion.

I don't miss DuckDuckGo.

BUT: Google Camera now crashes as soon as...

... I tap on "Video"

... I (try to) enter the settings screen

... I try to switch between the three cameras (Tele/Main/Wide)

All of this used to work very well before the Upgrade.

I also cannot get it back by setting SELINUX to permissive (was just an idea). Neither does a different version or config appear to help (tried for about an hour). It really appears to be a ROM-'issue'. I'm

aware that Google Camera is hardly 'supportable' and that I use whichever version with no guarantees unless I get myself one of their Pixel-Phones.

But still... it's such a great thing to have this app working as it IMO compensates the only disadvantage of replacing stock ROM.

Anyone here with the same problems? Anyone even with helpful advice?

Thanks in advance!
[Xiaomi Mi 9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] vince31fr:
Hi, I'm aware of that problem. It's not only in GCam: a priori, all camera apps fail. There's not only a problem with sepolicy, but also with some underlying librairies. I'm working on that and hope to fix it soon.

Turning sepolicy to enforced is always challenging and need to be fine-tuned, so don't hesitate to report more problems, if any. Please note also that the device tree and kernel are still under heavy development, los 17 not officially released yet, ... it may still be unstable for some time!
[Xiaomi Mi 9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] vince31fr:

Weird problem though-- In this version, Youtube Vanced just plays a black screen instead of video and the official Youtube app plays at like 5FPS most of the time. I'll try a clean flash if you think it's worth it, just wanted to check.

[Xiaomi Mi 9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] vince31fr:
In-app purchases can only be available by installing a patched version of Play Store : see https://gitlab.com/Nanolx/microg-phonesky-iap-support. FakeStore (which simulates the presence of the official Play Store) should also be removed. I did not test this in my rom, but would be interested by some feedback if someone makes it work.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] GBorges01:
hello, i use your rom from the beginning. what i do is install the nanodroid microg with script right after installing magisk. the play store works normally, including paid apps.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] vince31fr:
Ok, but finally a vanilla lineage rom would be enough for you, if you use nanodroid ? I think it replaces all microg related stuff I preinstalled ?
[Xiaomi Mi 9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] GBorges01:
I use this rom because it is the most stable and reliable for me. Nanodroid patcher doesn't work with me, and I really don't know if installing nanodroid microg replaces your microg, using the nanodroid script I limit the changes I want, so it seems not.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] vince31fr:
Ok. Yes I think nanodroid replaces my microg installation, but that's fine if it suits your needs. You could also perhaps do the same with Cosmin's lineage (I use his DT, so it is certainly as stable). It should be possible to remove preinstalled Google stuff and do the same with nanodroid. Although it's not sure that nanodroid way of signature spoofing works...

Migration towards a Stock LineagsOS ROM

I really would be appreciated if this rom migrate's towards a Stock LineagsOS ROM. Up to now it includes to much things one can easily install lateron. Or are there compelling reasons to now proceed migrating towards a stock LineageOS ROM?
[Xiaomi Mi 9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] vince31fr:
You have other options closer to lineage stock:

The goal of my rom and reason of existence is to provide an easy-to-start google-free experience, providing most of the basic functionalities everyone needs from a smartphone. In such a goal, I made a number of choices, integrated some recommendations (eg OpenBoard to replace AOSP keyboard), and I am open to new suggestions.

Moreover, in the next release, I'll replace MicroG core app by my own fork, in order to help new users: GCM notifications will be allowed by default, and there will be NLP location default settings (GeoNominatim geocoder, and DejaVu NLP backend - one of the most privacy-respectful one).

However, it is easy to remove preinstalled apps through twrp, they are all located in /system/priv-app...

True, it's just sad that everyone keep begging xiaomi for Android 10 update, seriously.

They should have appreciated on what xiaomi offers with this phone at this kind of price like good display, build quality and superior cameras! You are getting what you payed for.

I mean... if they, or you, really love Android 10 flavouring their A3, just grab a big selection of Android 10 custom ROM from our community, its way simpler than keep doing that. I know they may have bugs but they like Android 10 because of these... Dark mode, gesture navigation, privacy control, etc.

Now if they, or you decide to keep on begging xiaomi for Android 10 update, by all means go ahead! But this won't speed up their (xiaomi dev) development. Simple common sense, isn't it?
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Guides, News, & Discussion] zenkhas:
I strongly disagree with you, how does Xiaomi have enough resources to build MIUI 11? In fact Xiaomi has also released MIUI11 based Android 10 updates, if they have enough resources for them then they definitely work on Android One phones too.

Another thing: The reason Android One phones are supposed to get updates faster is manufacturers don't need to modify the OS much as compared to their own flavour (MIUI).

If they don't have enough resources they should not produce a Android One phone at first place. The MI A3 community is not being impatient, the update is quite late already, clearly there is no benefit of this phone having Android One program.

---------- Post added at 04:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:33 PM ----------

No brother, users are NOT getting what they paid for. Faster updates was one of the main selling point of this Phone, clearly Xiaomi has no interest in their Android One devices, their priority has always been phones with MIUI. And yes, NOT everyone has enough technical knowledge to flash custom roms.
