For you to narrow the tracks down, I may add my experience: I always choose 2G/3G auto switch mode, turn pocket detection off, motion detection also off. When I had the issue, I believe that the was trying to switch to either one of these two bands. Later I changed it to 3G only, and ever since don't face such a problem. I don't remember if WiFi was on, but I have read comments on both sides - problem occurring when it is on, and vice versa.

Up until I got out and the mobile tried to change networks, I didn't suffer as well. So maybe you can try to check it out with these specs precisely. Or I can get a log when I'll be out, and send it to you if it happens. Problem, though, at least as of this moment, it'd not be with crDroid, although it seems to be a problem faced by users from different custom ROMs. It might not gonna be the best leg for you to check out.

At this point I have a question: I'll shift to crDroid but couldn't find the answer of: Can I use a GCam which uses raw_sensor, or with the ROM I can only use raw10? I hope that it's the former. I have downloaded the ROM and it's waiting for me to find this out. I can survive on without wide cam, yet being limited with raw10 is a big problem for me and.

Thank you for your report, I will look into it... && Yes, you can use any gcam... Raw sensor issue had been fixed...

I have constant wifi disconnect issues. Long story short, I believe it to be firmware or hardware. Had the same when I was on MUI. Does anyone know if I can try the latest firmware on this rom without issues ?

I can see that the latest Chinese firmwares are on Android 10. Will it work on this Rom ? Also I have a EU phone/firmware, can I safely flash Chinese firmware ? Or will I lose band support, even though my phone supports all EU bands.

Hi there... I have ginkgo and I dirty flashed newest version without updating firmware before... (WHY...!?) And now system can't boot and I think I lost all of my data, because when entering to TWRP it's not asking me about password to decrypt. Is that true...?

Same issue. I reverted back to the previous version and was able to get access back
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Nguyễn Thế Vinh:
Ok, for ginkgo here's what i did (using OrangeFox Recovery):

- Full clean (system, vendor, cache, davik), format data partition

- Download and flash lastest MIUI Android 10 beta 20.7.16: https://www.xda-developers.com/download-miui-12-closed-beta-xiaomi-redmi-devices/

- Boot to MIUI (Yayy new boot logo :))

- Boot to Recovery

- Format data partition again

- Wipe system, cache, davik (not vendor)

- Flash crDroid - Gapps - Magisk

Is this too much ?
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] mg712702:
As I already mentioned, you need to flash latest firmware
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] MrohanK:
So I, in the end, switched to crDroid in the end, and wish did it before. The ROM is sublime so far!

For the yesterday's update, there's a question: is there anyone else whose wide angle and front camera doesn't work? This isn't a ROM-specific problem. I had it before as well with different ROMs. Once I formatted the whole internal memory (not just internal memory from twrp but everything. There were strange empty folders with long and unambiguous-character-full names. I thought I hard bricked then, thankfully I didn't), and ever since those two don't work.

Why do I ask here, then? Well, in the description it says that for the camera, something with/about Adithya R is made (am I correct? If not, accept my apologies). Is it that whatever the patch provided doesn't work with others as well, or if it is again a personal issue. Asking for that only.

Well, I learned how to live without these two cameras. And given that this is a personal problem, something probably is broken with my camera (ports), I'd again say that this is simply sublime. Damn man, I didn't check one two things out yet, but given that with what I'll check there haven't been any complaints, I could, with peace of heart and mind, say that this is just amazing!

I try to freelance these days and make sure that once I'll get a job, a well share of my income will be "for your coffee or beer" :)

Hi - I've dirty flashed 6.8 on top of 6.7. The rom boots, but can't get past lock screen: after I input correct pattern, the screen becomes blank for a couple of seconds, and then I'm at lock screen again. I'm already with latest firmware.

Does anyone has a solution (other then data wipe)?

[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] LazyT:
What is "latest" for you, we have 11.0.10.0 / V11.0.9.0 / 11.0.4.0 for eu/mi/ru on willow? Tried all with format data and none of them boots behind crdroid logo.

Which vendor is included in rom and why is it included? If we have to flash latest frmware we could also flash vendor?

No offence, I just want to understand.
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] mg712702:
Clean flash, format data
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] mg712702:
Camera was Fixed last month, please clean flash again alone with rom,gapps & magisk... Don't flash any mod.. it's working perfectly...
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] mg712702:
I already said, clean flash
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] MrohanK:
I did precisely that. Wiped everything, then flashed ROM, gapps, and magisk. Then wipe and format again and all is good to go.

I'm no newbie. That's why I said probably something is broken with me, as wide angle and front camera weren't working before also - ever since I wiped internal storage.

Well, anyway. That's the way to go, yet my device has a problem. Let this stay here for those that don't know how to do it.

Suggested that should install Android 10 firmware.

Does that mean I have to install Chinese version, since Global doesnt exist. (I have a European note 8). Does that mean I would lose support for various bands (such as band 20, which is working for me atm)

https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/archive/firmware/ginkgo/
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] svbarbosa:
I am almost sure you will not loose your bands.

There is an app you may use to check bands supported by your device: Network Signal Guru

install the firmware and check with this app. If band 20 is not there just flash global firmware back.

Let us know how it goes.

EDIT: XDA is not displaying the screenshots I posted. Hopefully they will appear later today.
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] MrohanK:
I checked. Strangely there's no .ANXCamera folder (I didn't just get in files, I checked over TWRP first), yet it ain't the problem: I checked with Camera2API. It doesn't see the aux cams as well. As a result, I can confirm that it is my device that is faulty somehow, and it has absolutely nothing to do with crDroid, it was this way long before that.

Thank you for the recommendation, and for the great ROM. I actually loved it already. It really is great!
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] poster74:
Yeah, you are right. I still have all my Bands.

I was hoping that the newer firmware will solve the phones random Wifi Disconnect isssue. Its still the same. I am thinking its probably a hardware issue.

. Also for an update to CrAndroud 6.8 a full, clean install is required - does this mean wiping everything and installed everything from start again?
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Hatakekakashino1:
Regarding gapps, I have to install the gapps for the android 10 right?
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] testink001:
Thanks! Flashed previous cdDroid and I have everything back! Big thanks for maintaining this ROM.
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] svbarbosa:
To really eliminate the possibility of a hardware problem you should first use Mi Flash Tool to flash the latest fastboot stock MIUI rom.

This is a lot of work. You must first backup everything. For apps/data backup you may use Migrate (free) or Swift Backup (paid, my favorite).

Then you flash MIUI, being careful with the flash option, so you do not relock bootloader.

Let it boot and check wifi. Hopefully it will be working.

After that you must reinstall a recovery, Orange Fox is my favorite.

Finally, a clean install of crDroid and then restore your backup.
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] nani666:
This ROM has Wildvine L1 ❓
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] poster74:
Hi thanks for the info.

The reason I think its hardware/firmware is because I had used MIUI. I had to wait 1 week for the bootloader to be unlocked. In that time I had used MIUI and even then wifi would disconnect often.

I just updated the firmware today, lets see how stable/unstable wifi is after a few days. First impressions is that it does still disconnect.

Coming back to crAndroid, why is it that the update needs to clean flash (i.e. wipe everything and install as if you were installing the rom for the first time). Most rom updates, you can 'dirty flash' on top of the previous months version.

That aside, I have to say, this rom is very good

Hi,

It seems that each update of this rom requires a complete wipe/format and reinstall (including losing all your data) ?

Is that for the foreseeable future or just a temporary thing ? Any workarounds?

Loving the ROM on an EU Redmi Note 8t (willow)! Was using v6.5 and updated to v6.8 the other day. Had to do a full wipe, install latest Android 9 firmware, flash the ROM, GApps and Magisk and then do format data to get everything to work correctly. Strangely, I was having some problems with a few apps crashing on startup which went away when I formatted my SD card as portable storage rather than internal storage. I'm getting great battery life, wifi is great, NFC working etc. and I'm passing the safetynet so no problems using GPay in stores. Thanks very much.

Glad to see updates for this ROM, it's quickly become my favorite. Just a quick report for this version. HDR doesn't work at all with the rear camera. I've tested with the default Lineage-esque camera as well as Parrot's GCam Mod (7.0.009). It's perfectly fine with the front-facing camera, but it just results in pink static when I take photos with it on using the rear. My setup is the ROM flashed with TWRP, no root. Am I doing something wrong or is this a bug?

Same issue, same setup, so I think it's a bug. Let's wait patiently and see, since you can take photos when you turn off HDR completely.

---------- Post added at 05:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:03 PM ----------

Question: the "stock" camera doesn't switch to front and Wide cams, it is just not responsive. It doesn't crash, yet doesn't do anything also. Macro works fine, and sees the so called depth sensor when I click to 2x cam.

I tried checking what might be the issue with trcam, and changed the values from 2 to 3, 4, and 5. Neither wide angle worked with that (and other) gcams, nor the front camera.

It's likely that a file is either corrupt or missing, yet I don't know. Any ideas about a fix?

I clean installed, wformatted data after installation, and there's no hidden anxcamera folder. I'm lost :D
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] reyolin:
