[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Radu15:
Hello! I've found the best custom rom + kernel for my needs and I wanted to share with you guys. :)

In my opinion the smoothest, good battery backup (8-9 hours sot) and performance combo is Pixel Experience + and Predator kernel. To make all of your apps work properly enable force fulllscreen mode for any of them . Now let me share with you guys some battery tweaks:

1. Install Naptime and make sure that these options are enable:

2. Restrict any app in the background that you don't need to work in the background, like these apps:

3. Disable unused default apps like these:

and disable Google Assistant if you don't use it ( if you disabled Google app you will not found Search, Assistant and voice in the settings ): Settings - Google - Account services - Search, assistant and voice - Google Assistant - Assistant - General - Disable Google Assistant. Also disable location/ Find My Device, automatically data sync for apps.

4. Disable automatically backup for Google Photos.

Here are some apps which I use it and it will make your life easier:

- Youtube and Youtube Music without ads ( no need to root ): https://vancedapp.com/

- Magisk, needs to be flashed in custom recovery: http://www.mediafire.com/file/vzf3re143yb68uc/Magisk-v21.1.zip/file

- Google Camera. You will need to install "Remove Google Camera" module in Magisk first if you have it already installed in your rom, the link for this module is this one: http://www.mediafire.com/file/bhm6dhrrnqiar2d/RemoveGCam.zip/file

Google Camera ( if you don't have it already installed as default camera, you can install it as any apk file, no need to root ) , this is the download link for it: http://www.mediafire.com/file/eogevstxhlq0yvv/MGC+7.4.201+Parrot043+V1.1.apk/file

- L1 Security patch that will make Netflix stream more than SD: https://www.mediafire.com/file/85mrfht25lzjfjx/DRM_L1_Patch.zip/file

( needs to be installed in Magisk )

- I also changed the default launcher because it's not that customizable, and I found this launcher to be more customizable and well optimized:
