HI

How is the latest 12,1 build ? ( Sept 19 2022 ) Does it crash much ? I'm still on the June build and it crashes intermittently, like a couple of times a week (heavy usage)
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Ozzaru:
yes, still the same problem, they have never solved that problem, and I don't think they will solve it.
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] techville:
OK. Its been a long time since I used the Android 11 build - is that rock solid stable ? I saw that there's a recent security update (a few days ago)
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] kapetchou:
Yes the A11 is stable , no rebooting here , no problems what so ever
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] bahtsiz_bedevi:
Here's the problem with custom rom community. Whenever a new android release comes out, everyone is trying to jump into that wagon as soon as possible along with all the bugs.

I think we, users are to blame for that because we want to use the newest version. But when we realize the bugs, the public outcry begins :)

Without new kernel sources from xiaomi that compatible with the android release, the devs can't do much.

A stable Android 11 is better than a buggy Android 13 :)

I'm new here and this is the first custom rom I install, 12.1 vanilla build. No bugs whatsoever and battery is great. almost 11 hours [sot] with wifi. The camera is not as good as gcam but I'll try to do without that and maps, which are the only google apps I used. I wonder why some people are experiencing bugs.

does system still crashes after recent 10 October update ?

I am considering to switch from A11 to A12

Also how is battery performance ?

I used pixel experience A12 recently and battery drains very fast.

Edit: I tested it and it works fine.

Hey all, an unofficial ArrosOS 13 download has appeared on the download site for the ROM, is there a post or anything regarding that rom?
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Musashi_:
It's official made by the dev himself.

It's just that is beta and you should use it at your own risk.
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] LisandroSC:
Do you know if it could be dirty flashed over the last ArrowOS 12.1 build or a clean flash is a must? Which would be the flashing instructions?
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Musashi_:
It's always recommended to do a clean flash when going from a major version to another.

Could a dirty flash work? Sure.

Better be on the safe side.

Also make sure you are on the latest twrp.

Instructions are on the first post.

Installed versión 13 two days ago (dirty flash), it is very smooth. However, ram management is outrageous, my phone has only 3GB of ram. It is back to miui, everything reloads and more free ram.

To go back to version 12 a clean flash is needed?

I flashed this rom but I'm having screen burn in. I used to have it in reloaded too but now I'm again on reloadedOS and the screen burn isn't as bad as it was in arrow a13. If I stayed on anything for like 5 seconds, it was stuck on screen for some seconds. My brightness wasn't high and night mode didn't helped either. I wonder why this happens. Also, screen burn is not so intense in miui and reloadedOS. Can't say about other ROMs as I haven't used many of them.

Go settings- xiaomi parts- display color calibration and enable use KCAL then set values to 240-240-240. Then your problem needs to be solved. You can try 235 also.
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Jatin Verma x821:
Alright, will try that next time I'm in arrow. Btw I'm back on reloaded right now and the screen burn isn't as bad. It happens but takes a lot of time. I am even running boosted colors right now without night light and high brightness, waiting for screen burn to happen but it isn't happening for some reason. This is very strange because I thought the effect should be equal with every rom. Also in stock rom I rarely noticed screen burn. But I can understand for stock roms, they are always optimised for stability.

Is your phone defective? I haven't seen this before. I can imagine it's very annoying.
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Jatin Verma x821:
I don't think so. Right now it's working really well so far. One of my relative has the same phone and their device also has this issue. They are running the stock ROM and still the screen burn happens to them a lot while with my phone I rarely saw screen burn in stock ROM.
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Telli-:
No your screen is fine. It happens on tianma panels. This problem happens on redmi note 7 too.

It's about kernel I think not rom. It's called screen ghosting and happens when you stay on fixed things on screen with full brightness. Maybe they are configured kernel before on that roms. For me that was happening on stock rom and never faced after kcal settings. Hope solves your problem.
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] io00:
I'm also interested in a solution for this. It's especially problematic when I use the phone for navigation at night. A part from that, the rom is very good: it's smooth and the battery managment is good. I've only had sporadic app crashes but they might very well have been due to the apps themselves
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] seqswitch:
Yeah I'm very happy with it otherwise but it's annoying to have to manually turn up the brightness every time I open it in the evening.
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] bahtsiz_bedevi:
I have the same problem. In a dark room, the lowest brightness level is extremely low. All AOSP roms I tried have this problem.
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] seqswitch:
I haven't come across it before, coming from official Lineage and HavocOS (on redmi note 5) before that.

I noticed that there was a mention of the auto brightness in the changelog a while ago and I wonder if that's the cause, perhaps the tweak was a bit too aggressive.
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] bahtsiz_bedevi:
I meant all android 13 AOSP roms on Ginkgo
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Jatin Verma x821:
Yes, I have the similar problem on reloaded, though I barely use auto brightness.
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Jatin Verma x821:
A bug I found in this rom and how to reproduce it:

Enable gesture navigation.

Open default launchers settings and in app drawer section of settings toggle search bar on or off (depends on whether you have already disabled or enabled it) once. Swipe up to go homescreen.

The Launcher should crash now, and your swipe gesture to go home and open recent apps should stop working.

To fix, simply open settings from qs panel, and enable 3 button navigation.

Happening with me 100% accuracy.
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Jatin Verma x821:
Apart from the low brightness bug, I have found this rom to be really good in every other area. The smoothness is at its best. Seriously, some might say caf roms are better for smoothness, but in my experience, this rom is smoother than both reloaded and paranoid Android. The rom is too smooth. I can't even explain it. If you try some other roms and then come back to it then you'll understand what I'm talking about. And no bugs. UI is very consistent, looks clean and beautiful. Totally in love with this rom.

So I had my 10 day run on arrowOS a13, and now I am going to change rom. I found this ROM to be very smooth. That's the best thing about this rom: smoothness. This ROM has double tap to sleep, which I like, but no expand qs on swiping from right or left, though I found that I barely need it. MIUI cam is included and slow-mo works which is nice. Only one bug: Chrome and brave both get zigzag lines while switching tabs, and that really annoys me. I tried using bromite and iceraven, but I just want to go back to chrome. So much data on chrome, that I can't make easy switch for now. So I will try some other rom now.

If you are someone looking for complete stability (keep in mind the one bug I mentioned above), and a smooth rom for our device, then arrowOS is the pick for you.

Now I fear that I won't find a rom as smooth as this :p
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] dexter1123:
finally installed Arrow13 (replaced PE13). ROM is smooth, (few features are missing in arrow and few in PE) but below are not working:

1. Parallel space only works with default arrow launcher. Parallel apps doesn't show up in Nova Launcher.

2. App lock doesn't seems to work at all. Not sure what I am missing.

Please fix...thank you for gr8 ROM.

All the issues I was experiencing were because no clean install. I gave A13 another try and it's working fine. Maybe there is a small difference in ram management, but might be because I only have 3gb of ram.

Does it support method of using SD card like a expander of Internal Storage?
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Telli-:
It asks but i didn't try and don't know if it's working. It is not recommended either.
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] NotowanyWieslaw:
Why it is not recommended? I need this this so much because 32GB internal memory capacity on my REDMI NOTE 8T is not enough for me and I want to use my Fast SD card to increase internal memory capacity by using my SD card.

If it is asking, then I will try this ROM and see if it is working, becuase right now I am using APPS2SD PRO with ROOT privileges (MAGISK APLHA) but it is not working great - if I move/link DATA FOLDER (which is the biggest file of every app) to SD CARD, then the app will not start and you can wait a MILION years to start the app. So I need something like it was in earlier versions of LINEAGE Os that you were able to Use SD CARD like increaser of your internal memory capacity.

Also, I have second question. If this ARROW OS - have a SPLIT SCREEN function built in this OS and if this function is wokring properly?
