[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 [Snapdragon] ROMs, Kernels, Re] tejasvi001:
Very bad update. Instagram, Mi store etc apps crashing immediately on opening. Ram management is slightly better but at the cost of stability. I do not recommend this update to anyone. I didn't do OTA. All these issues in clean flash. This update has lockscreen bug also which the previous version had fixed.

---------- Post added at 08:21 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:15 AM ----------

Ok google/microphone bug is fixed in this update but that's the only good thing about it. Everything else is bad.

---------- Post added at 08:34 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:21 AM ----------

Wifi and 4g speed in this new update is terrible. I'm getting 4-5 mbps download speed on my note 9 pro and mi max 2 but only 300-800 kbps max upto 1.4 mbps on this OS. Note that my note 3 on previous Colt Euphoria version gets significantly better download speeds ranging from 2.7 to 4.2 mbps. So, it's not my device's fault. i never had this issue before. Colt never had poor download speeds. Shifting back to the older version of Euphoria. This was the best custom rom for redmi note 3. Infact i made a video about it on YouTube also. But after this update,i just can't recommend it anymore.

I have colt 6.5 Euphoria old version running on my other redmi note 3 and it's an absolute pleasure excpept the ok google issue.. I don't recommend this update to anyone.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 [Snapdragon] ROMs, Kernels, Re] tejasvi001:
Final update: Shifted back to Colt OS Euphoria October build. All the problems have been solved. Apps no longer crash, rom is super stable, extremely fast charging,super fast wifi and 4g speed, ok google/microphone bug has returned, no lockscreen bug whatsoever.

Note that i tried verious recoveries like pitch black, official twrp,orange fox, i tried clean flashing as well as clean flashing with format data. The latest version of Colt has lot of bugs. Do not flash on your primary device. Keep running the old version. It's much better.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 [Snapdragon] ROMs, Kernels, Re] vr1988:
How is the battery life on October build? Can it be used as a daily driver?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 [Snapdragon] ROMs, Kernels, Re] tejasvi001:
Yes battery life on the October build is alrite. The latest gapps have issues. Try to use old gapps micro. I personally used Oct 15th micro gapps as the latest ones had google app crashing bug and it wouldn't let me log into the rom.

October build of Colt OS Euphoria is the best android 10 custom rom for redmi note 3. To avoid microphone related issues, keep ok google/hey google deactivated. Although microphone related issues have been fixed in the latest update but the apps are crashing. Choice is yours - stability or "ok google" detection ... Choose wisely.

Note that when you install October build, the rom will show you OTA update to the November build. DO NOT and i mean Do Not update to the November build no matter what. No OTA, No clean flash. The dev has fixed some of the bugs like poor ram management,ok google detection etc in November build but if the apps are crashing, there's absolutely no reason to update. Dev has used source code from Mi A2 lite - daisy_sprout but I'm sure dev will release a bug fix final update for Colt 6.5 before abandoning it in favor of android 11.

Regarding android 11, installing it on a 2gb ram variant no matter which rom it is not at all recommended. 3gb ram is the minimum requirement of Android 11. So, yes it will run on 3gb ram variants but whether it will run smoothly or not i can't say for sure. Google has published that any device with 2gb ram or less must and i mean must run on Android Go. It cannot run the full version of Android 11. Do not flash any Android 11 rom if you have a 2gb variant of RN3 like me.

I frankly do not recommend installing Android 11 on any Redmi Note 3 device even the 3 gb variant. The device is just too old to handle it. The adreno graphics drivers are outdated and the storage chipset is too old to be messing around with. I myself got my phone's battery replaced 2 days back. I'd rather recommend sticking with Colt OS 6.5 and using the device as it is rather than updating to 11 and hoping that you hadn't ??.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 [Snapdragon] ROMs, Kernels, Re] otyg:
Sorry for the delay, a new update will come out soon with the November security patch and also a fix the issues.

For gapps/google apps crashing, usually just re-flashing gapps in the recovery will fix that problem however some gapps do not carry over with OTA for some reason, I recommend just reflashing the gapps you used on the first install build since any updates from play store are based off those versions, so flashing newer versions can cause conflicts. (on clean flash you can use new/latest gapps).

I am aware of the lockscreen bug returning it wasn't caught until after release unfortunately, and I am working on a fix.

I will revert blobs to previous versions, and bring over the google assistance fix, I will do a separate beta build for anyone who wants to test the new blobs and features which I will post on TG Group.

The next update will be extremely stable again, sorry for the inconvenience !
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 [Snapdragon] ROMs, Kernels, Re] otyg:
New 6.5 Update is out with the November security patch,

This build should fix the lockscreen bug that was in the previous version and improve other features.

ColtOS-v6.5Euphoria-kenzo-20201109-Official.zip

Note:

if you dirty flash you might want to remove lockscreen before updating or delete /data/system/locksettings.db if you can't unlock after update. dirty flash should be ok, but clean flash is recommended.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 [Snapdragon] ROMs, Kernels, Re] tejasvi001:
Terrible update. System UI not responding error. Absolutely pathetic ram management. ROM takes a couple of seconds to show lock screen after the boot animation. Lag is noticeable. Apps no longer crashing. Google play store is a pain to use in this ROM. Rarely does it download and install apps properly. Apps like Gmail and Uber refuse to install/update. If you're using this ROM as your daily driver, this update is not at all recommended. Stay on October build. It's better in every aspect except OK google bug which is not too much of a deal. In all fairness, OK google bug doesn't hinder day to day functioning of the OS. Stay on October build.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 [Snapdragon] ROMs, Kernels, Re] amn1987:
Did you replace the battery from Xiaomi service center? Last one year one user had reported almost 10 hour SoT with genuine battery but some others have speculated that with almost 5 year old stocks the batteries might have aged quite a bit.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 [Snapdragon] ROMs, Kernels, Re] tejasvi001:
The service center around my house clearly stated that he has no spare parts for redmi note 3 or redmi note 4. The devices are just too old. I have a phone repair person nearby. I know that fellow for nearly a decade. He got me a genuine battery. I know that for sure as i saw the battery. Anyways, the last i got a battery backup of arround 6hr 10min. So my battery backup is ranging from 5hr 50 min to around 6 hr 10-15 min depending on my usage. Yes it's possible that the battery might have aged as you mentioned. But this is my 1st replacement battery. The old battery had started giving lot of issues. The performance was severely throttled down, battery usage data was inaccurate,the phone used to heat up like crazy. Battery used to give around 2hr 50-55 min backup(SOT) so i had to get it replaced. And I'm very happy with the performance of the device. Note that i have a 2gb variant and I'm using October colt build with October 15 security patch. Can't say much about the new builds as i encountered a wide array of bugs with both the November updates. Regarding 10 hr battery backup - that's either a hoax or the person has changed his kernel(perhaps using agni or any other for that case). MIUI 7, which was the most stable version for this device yielded me a battery backup of around 7hr 30 min (SOT) on my brand spanking new device. So i find 10 hr battery backup hard to digest. He's certainly done some modifications. Snapdragon 650 isn't as battery efficient as Snapdragon 625. 650 is a performance oriented processor. I could believe that 625 could give 10 hr SOT. But 650, no freakin way. Not to forget that 650 is based on 28nm manufacturing process and 625 is based on 14 nm. 14nm processor consumes less power comparatively.

Hi if you are up to testing I made a build with the old blobs (I have not tested it so it may not even boot or have other issues, use at own risk ...etc)

ColtOS-v6.5Euphoria-kenzo-20201108 Old Blobs Nov Update
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 [Snapdragon] ROMs, Kernels, Re] tejasvi001:
Thanks for the build bro but it's my primary device. It's not possible for me to test it. I'm sorry. It takes a couple of days to completely setup the device. Both the November updates had issues on my device and i had to revert back to October update. The reason i installed it was that my other note 3 with colt is with my father and i just can't update his device to an unreliable version. Hence, i was testing to ensure that the November builds don't have any bugs. Had it been my secondary device, i would have certainly tested it bro. Bro just for the record, whatever coding you did on the October update is just Perfect. Si Perfecto. If possible please compile a build with November or December security patch(when it's out) with Ok google bug fixed. Take your time. No rush. Regarding ram management etc, it's alrite on the october build. No need to change that also. Furthermore, a faulty battery also leads to overheating,thermal throttling and random reboots. So, poor ram management that i faced in October build could very well be thermal throttling. Since the new battery, I haven't faced any issues on the October build. If anyone is facing ram management issues on the October build with October 14th/15th gapps, i suggest get your battery replaced. The device is just too old and batteries don't last forever.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 [Snapdragon] ROMs, Kernels, Re] otyg:
No problem, actually the build I posted above should have the ok google bug fixed with November security patch with old blobs (from October), the only feature that might not be working is power off alarm though I am having some people test it.

Some users have tested that build and said it works great, I will decide soon if I will return to the old blobs or continue using the new blobs.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 [Snapdragon] ROMs, Kernels, Re] tejasvi001:
Is the ram management on that build alrite? Are some of the bugs of october update fixed? What exactly is power off alarm?? I said "it's my primary device" as you said it might not even boot. That's what got me worried. Do you think that i should try it or wait for the december official build?? 1 thing is for sure that my feedback certainly matters to you.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 [Snapdragon] ROMs, Kernels, Re] otyg:
After a few days of testing I can confirm the November builds with the new blobs add significant delay when launching apps which may be worse on 2G devices, I will push out a new update soon that will go back to the standard blobs but we will loose some minor features like the "power off alarm" but I think having a fast and stable device is worth it over the extra features.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 [Snapdragon] ROMs, Kernels, Re] tejasvi001:
Ofcourse i completely agree. I have no idea what power off alarm is. Just fix ok google issue and give the update and I'll be more than happy. I'm using October update in 2 of my phones and I don't feel that I'm missing out on features. Granted November builds may have a bit more features but at the cost of stability, it's not worth it. Bdw i was asking you whether i should try out the nov 8 old blobs test build or wait for december old blobs official update? On my 2gb device, i used to get the message "unfortunately system UI is not responding" and oftenatimes i had to force reboot the device as it would just hang with both the November updates.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 [Snapdragon] ROMs, Kernels, Re] otyg:
NEW Update for 6.5!, this will be the last update for this month...enjoy :)

ColtOS-v6.5Euphoria-kenzo-20201114-Official.zip

Note: Hey Google should work in this build, Power Off alarm is working but the device has to be unplugged (not charging) for it to start the device on alarm activation, this is a limitation of kenzo blobs.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 [Snapdragon] ROMs, Kernels, Re] tejasvi001:
Nice update bro. Not a single bug. Today's Gapps is also good. Opengapps micro.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 [Snapdragon] ROMs, Kernels, Re] onionchibi:
Gapp - pico pack not work.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 [Snapdragon] ROMs, Kernels, Re] onoffitalia:
hello thanks for your work! What happen if flashing this rom on a Kate? Band 20 will work?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 [Snapdragon] ROMs, Kernels, Re] tejasvi001:
No idea about Gapps Pico. I use Micro Gapps in all my phones. Regarding Kate, try and see for yourself. It's a possibility that it might work as the rom is completely stable now.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 [Snapdragon] ROMs, Kernels, Re] @BoW@:
I changed yesterday from derpfest Pie to Colt 6.5 , I followed the instructions to the letter and the pico gapps (opegapps) work perfectly. The rom works very well, but unfortunately there is one little thing that I did not expect to lose but that is very useful.

It is no longer possible to assign to a button to open the power menu, I used it to avoid the wear and tear of the power button.

Is there a way, even manual, to add this function again? Currently the list of assignable functions is missing.

Thanks.

I do an update to my post, after two days of use, the rom has several lag and the apps start slowly and sometimes suddenly close. My kenzo is the variant with 2gb of ram and with all the apps installed they remain unused just over 5oo mb, while the usage profile is balanced.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 [Snapdragon] ROMs, Kernels, Re] Jangoux:
Installed colt os for the first time and I've been liking the features. However I am getting massive lags and apps getting stuck that sometimes even need a reboot to unhang the phone. What could be causing this?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 [Snapdragon] ROMs, Kernels, Re] otyg:
Make sure you are on the 11.14 build, when you first install a rom android can do some optimizations in the background which can take a few hours to several days depending on the device use, sometimes these optimizations can cause some lag but eventually go away, you can trigger the optimization manually if you like but I wont go into that too much.

here is a nice guide on how to run the command.

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 [Snapdragon] ROMs, Kernels, Re] vikrend:
I'm on 11.14 build. Made optimization through command. Still getting lags in apps.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 [Snapdragon] ROMs, Kernels, Re] vikrend:
It feels like it lags when app reads from internal storage.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 [Snapdragon] ROMs, Kernels, Re] sudadeze:
maybe you setup your sd card as shared internal storage? instead of portable storage
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 [Snapdragon] ROMs, Kernels, Re] vikrend:
No it was happening on read from storage to memory. So what was happening is when there is no memory, data from memory was compressed (and therefore cpu being used heavily atm) and pushed to zswap. And at that moment it lagged hard. So what I did is I turned zswap off and set lmk to aggressive kill but w/o killing foreground application. So far no lags encountered.

Hi,

I've two issue with the rom :

- sometime, i'm connected on 4g but the data is not fonctionnal (it's okay After reboot)

- when i active Gps, he can't find position and satellite (solution : reboot phone and After 5 to 30 min he find my position but After 1 day with Gps desctivated, i've the same problem).

- i've little ramdom freeze (5 to 20 seconds) when i use Google Chrome (the app reset don't solve problem)

Have you solutions ?

Have you plans for New update ? This rom is very stable.

Just a quick update, I have gotten ColtOS 7.3 to compile and boot on kenzo currently it is in testing, I plan to have a release out soon, I left the official colt team since I couldn't make the deadlines when it first came out (kenzo had tons of problems with android 11, and I was busy), however currently everything is stable but the rom will be 'unofficial' for the time being, so this mean no OTA, (I can implement this myself though if people request it).

Stay tuned.

Please see first post for install instructions, since this is a new Android OS a clean install will be required, also please don't use backup tools to restore data from a older Android OS, it will cause bugs with Android 11 due to the new Scoped Storage system, before reporting bugs especially with apps, please make sure the app is updated and comfirmed to support A11+, this is the initial build so may have some bugs but is fully functional, I will have a list of know bugs and issues soon, so far the list is small and almost everything is working fine.
