[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] adithya2306:
Alright let me clarify this. Offline charging broken DOES NOT MEAN you can't revive a device that drained completely to 0%. The battery will always be charged from 0% no matter if its stuck in bootanimation or shows a battery meter. What I meant to say is you won't get a battery meter when device is powered off and charging, instead it will boot normally or stuck at bootanimation. In that case just long press power button and you'll be able to boot into the ROM, even if battery is at 0%. And on a side note, 0% in android doesn't actually mean the battery is completely dead, actually atleast 3% charge is left in it.
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] x3r0.13urn:
Thank God, thanks for the clarification. I was worried it would end up like brick if it can't be charged. That's a relief. Many thanks for the explanation.

Classic bug with device freezing, thought on how to take a log?

Adb logcat gives me device is offline. Usually happens when I use GPS and bluetooth at the same time.

Can you please make it possible to configure google now gesture ont the bottom of the screen ?

With the 3 buttons bar we can't reconfigure the actions of the buttons ?

I think it coul be great if we can change the color accent from green to whatever we want cause it's too flashy !

Thanks for your support and the great rom !
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] crazyrexz:
almost every a10 roms in this device, had bugs that holding back for daily driver. better go for lineageos for devs and then make other rom based on it like redmi note 4 alias mido. that device has good development scene
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] x3r0.13urn:
Relax dude, this is the same and expected for every single roms here in XDA. Hobbyist is paid by no one. We're lucky someone or a group built custom roms for us. As long as those bugs don't cause any bricks, it's acceptable.

Even the official rom could have bugs too you know, sometimes just little bugs, daily/weekly annoyances, sometimes could cause the device is rendered unusable, for instance see how official MIUI update on Mi A3 these days.

Cheers.

Format data only before flashing ROM, else features will be missing in anx camera (you can reflash anxcamera 184 in magisk manager to get them back though).
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] U263A:
That's too bad. :( I'm sorry and hope you find another way to resolve it.

In my case, even installing the first global firmware (V10.3.1.0 / MIUI10) and locking bootloader didn't solve my problem.

So I had to unlock my bootloader again.

When I install AOSP based ROMs, NFC works out of the box - no tinkering required.

(e.g. PA, LOS unofficial builds by tarkzim, crDroid ...)
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Zesam:
I tried also the first stock-build from 2019 with no luck. However, I did not lock the boot-loader. Very weird problem. :confused:

And yes all AOSP based ROMs handle nfc out of the box. Looks like we are bound to custom-roms in the future. :crying:

[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Zesam:
well, I can live with custom-rom but if you don't then you can flash the last miui-rom, lock the boot-loader and send back your phone and complain for nfc not working. :fingers-crossed:
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] zurik:
It seems that the CAF NFC Stack is the issue why NFC is not working after rollback to MIUI.
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Zesam:
And what to do?
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] zurik:
I don't know.

Btw, I flashed PA Quartz 4 a few days back, and rolled back to Miui, I was lucky that nfc was working. Maybe because on q4, the caf nfc stack was not merged.
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] MaximStormila:
Which recovery version did you use?
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] zurik:

[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Zesam:
When we roll back from custom-rom to miui we actually rollback from android 10 to 9. can be the reason?
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] MaximStormila:
Me too, but I used twrp v3.3.1-1. Which one did you use?

[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] mohand06:
Same NFC issue here, note8T, when rolling back to stock miui.

Thanks for the hint, I'll try it right away.

Hope only that when restoring backup of my actual miui configuration, the problem won't come back, lol.

Can I dirty flash over quartz 4? Sure you can, but I always recommend a clean flash to prevent running into weird issues that otherwise won't happen, such as random app crashes.

Will there be a Wave 2 for Quartz 5? There's still a good chance and it depends on the core team, but either way, ruby is in the works and you can expect official builds in roughly about a month! Cheers, and again, sorry for not being able to deliver an official Quartz 5 release.

EDIT 24.10.2020:

There won't be a quartz 5 wave 2 now, we'll directly go for Ruby 1 and yeah, official release.

---------- Post added at 03:55 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:52 AM ----------

Nothing major, I have been using it from release. Must note that this build is far smoother than Q4 build. For willow users NFC isn't working, but there is a fix on Redmi Note 8/8T Paranoid Android Support group for that. Also this build includes some Dev build additional features like quick settings customizations and network speed indicator.

---------- Post added at 03:58 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:55 AM ----------

With some of the compromises came great Dev build features like Quick settings customizations and network speed indicator build into the rom. For updates I'd rather say download the zip manually and dirty flash should work, although clean flash is always a win win.

Official is what source offer and nothing extra apart from that, dev build is usually a test build but since this one got released Adithya packed in a few features like network speed indicator and quick settings customizations by modification of the source.

An easy glossary question: what is the exact difference between "dirty" and "clean" flash? Is formatting /data involved?

If formatting /data is recommended, is there a way to transfer all the configuration (icons, widgets, as well as compatible system settings) when flashing an update?
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] devaponnadsm:
A Clean Flash removes all system data and puts new data. Al Clean Flash is always recommended as it is more reliable and it has less chance to cause bugs.

Formatting data is only needed if you are doing clean flash and device data is encrypted.

Backup Device Settings via Backup in Settings->System->Backup. Settings like WiFi Passwords, and other settings will be backed up. Only possible if you have flashed GApps.

You can use Migrate App (from play store or XDA Labs) to backup all Apps along with their data. All apps will be like before after Clean Flash, only some banking apps and incompatible apps may not backup due to security reasons.
