[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 [Snapdragon] ROMs, Kernels, Re] tejasvi001:
Thanks for the prompt reply. That's how a good developer should be. I never targetted you unlike some of the comments here on XDA. I know you'll release a bug fix update. If possible,do fix apps crashing issue as well. Apps like Instagram,Mi Store crash on launch. According to me, this is the best custom rom for redmi note 3 even better than Nitrogen OS 8.1 oreo which was the most stable custom rom for RN3 but had battery drain issue in its final releases. What i suggest is take your time buddy. Release a final update for Colt 6.5 even if it takes a month. No pressure. Meanwhile, if possible , please takedown the latest build from the server. I'm back to using October build and it's the most stable custom rom for RN3 except ofcourse the microphone bug. My workaround for this is to disable ok google detection. By disabling ok google, i never face microphone issues anymore or else I'd have to restart my device in order to Shazam some songs or so as the microphone would just stop working. People on the other side can't sometimes hear me on the call. Disabling ok google in October build fixes all these issues. Good luck.

I always clean flash buddy. The issues that I've mentioned are present in clean flash only. My other redmi note 3 running Euphoria is showing OTA update but i never and i mean never do OTA updates in custom roms. Anyways, waiting for the final colt 6.5 Euphoria version with all the bug fixes.

I use micro gapps with my custom roms. The latest gapps have issues. When you're setting up your device, you see unfortunately google app has crashed error. And when clicking done, it just doesn't let me boot into the device. I have tried various versions of gapps in the past 2 days. Ranging from the latest to October 15th. The October 15th gapps is the best one as for now. It lets me log into the rom and has no weird "unfortunately google app has crashed bug". Open Gapps has always been a hit and miss but we don't have any other option. So i make it a point that i keep the old , fully functional and reliable gapps files in my memory card as you never know when gapps might start having issues like now. They've not been updated since 6th because they're having such issue. Gapps is either updated daily or once in 2 days. If it's taking longer, it's probably a bad update and the team is working on a fix. That's what I've learnt in my many years of flashing custom roms on this device since RR 7.1 nougat.

And one more thing, don't even bother about the latest security patches bro. It doesn't matter. Just give a final 6.5 update with all the bug fixes and just forget it. Move on to 11 as you mentioned earlier. Although i won't flash 11 based custom rom on my device as it's a 2gb variant, many with the 3 gb variant will. My point being security patches don't matter. A final bug-free update is what we need. Take a month. No pressure. Test the update thoroughly and then release it. Had it not been for devs like you, our device would have been stuck at android 6.0 marshmallow. Hats off to you folks who give their time,effort and expertise to provide the latest OS to our old ageing device.
