with OF - format data

If I try with OF to format data it gives me the following error:

mkfs.f2fs -t 0 -r 16384 /dev/block/mmcblk0p64 process endend with error: 255
unable to wipe Data.
unable to format to remove encryption

I've also tried to do "recovery fs" + change fs ext4-vfat-ext4 as I've seen in other discussions

with TWRP 3.5.0_9-0

format data goes well, and says to reboot once again to recovery (as I do)

Once rebooted, I wipe data/system/cache/dalvik

install the rom zip file, do the wipe cache/dalvik and try to reboot to the system and then I get stuck for long time in the boot linage animation, and after that it reboots back to twrp :(

when I go back to twrp, if I try to check the internal fs, it seems empty, as it was nothing installed :'((((

Hello all,

after been able to finish the install of the rom, now I'm stuck on a new problem.

I cannot access to the storage :-(

As you can see in the attachet image, I can see the sd-card and read/write on it. But I cannot do anything in the storage of the table.

Great!

- Also, should OP still read "LineageOS 18.0 (Beta)"?

- re. "Install TWRP 3.4.0 for clover", twrp-3.5.0_9-0-clover.img official is the latest, but it's worth noting that only Mokee 3.2.3.0-3-clover TWRP mounts / wipes / formats / repairs all partitions for me.

- "Optional: Flash Magisk v21.0 for root" --> perhaps "Magisk v21+"? - 22.0 is current version.

It may gms parts, but not sure about that.

It can be check in logcat during boot up the rom without GApps.

[Xiaomi Mi Pad 4 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] Matt0815:
First of all -thank u so much for this great ROM, it´s performing really smooth after a few days checking, if everything works as expected!

My flip cover didn´t work as well, although, I´ve been on latest firmware -since 18.1-20210315 I didn´t have problems any more...

The only thing, I didn´t get to work until now is Screen Cast:

- "Cast screen to device" keeps searching for devices without result

- Tapping on "Settings" shows the TV, connecting and accepting the request isn´t successfull -sometimes it keeps connecting without any effect, sometimes the connection is lost

For me, it´s not an important feature, I could use other devices as well -but in fact it´s the only feature in this ROM, which is not working for me (which doesn´t mean, it´s not working for others).

[Xiaomi Mi Pad 4 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] rori1977:
Right, this is exactly the point. You can easily be confused and might end up installing some wrong gapps package, spoiling the attempt to resurrect the device abandoned by Xiaomi.

That's why I would recommend to put the precise links.

Just to avoid any confusion.
[Xiaomi Mi Pad 4 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] pndwal:
Sometimes imprecise is better, and it's enough that the information is accurate, because frequent updates are not needed.

For example, OP here did specify precise versions for TWRP and Magisk only a week ago, and dev has just changed this to indicate that 'latest' versions should be used. (Some may have thought that the older versions were somehow required). Likewise, the instruction to 'Flash GApps (NikGApps is recommended) is a must' is no longer misleading. (Previously it stated that this was 'optional'.)

Devs here generally develop for their own needs and satisfaction, and make their ROMs / mods available to others as a courtesy. Really, we shouldn't expect them to hold our hand and walk us through the mod process.

Custom modders owe it to themselves to become familiar with sources for basic material, eg twrp.me, Magisk GitHub, OpenGapps and NikGApps, and lineageos.org sites, and to understand the basics before modding. (Eg. LOS version is always Android version + 7.)

I say let the devs concentrate on their development (and I have seen a number quit due to demanding users). After all, they're doing it for nix. PW
[Xiaomi Mi Pad 4 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] rori1977:
I do not disagree... the idea of the proposal was to lower the entry barrier for newbies. Spoonfeeding should not be the goal for sure.

I guess every developer needs to decide where to draw that line.

Personally I managed to install everything (with a bit of reading here and there), but drawing wrong conclusions could have occured easily to me ....even with 4 devices having used CyanogenMod (and now LOS) over the past years, I still consider myself to be a bloody beginner.

Thanks for pointing out the "+7 rule", I personally learned something new from you here. 👍

Don't feel pushed, only appreciation for the brilliant work (and good intentions) here :)
[Xiaomi Mi Pad 4 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] pndwal:
FWIW, this follows CyanogenMod convention, and has been true since KitKat, but not before that. Android / AOSP didn't increase versions by whole numbers with new major updates pre KitKat, but CM did.

Also, while +7 rule applies to version whole number, LOS subversion digits don't necessarily follow the AOSP subversion. Bit more here:

[Xiaomi Mi Pad 4 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] Vlad9ck:
Does anyone else have issues with writing to SD card? For me it looks like when any app is intensively writing something to SD (e.g. copying a large file or downloading a torrent), it takes all CPU power: UI lags a lot, video drops frames, sound glitches, sometimes System UI throws ANR, even wifi connection drops after some time. Once copying is done, everything backs to normal: very fast and responsive.

There's no such issue on my previous rom - LOS 17, so I'm pretty sure that hardware is fine and it's just a software bug.

[Xiaomi Mi Pad 4 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] sabar_op:

[Xiaomi Mi Pad 4 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] Vlad9ck:
It looks like the issue is connected with kernel's governor and/or I/O scheduler: in this ROM default governor is performance, which never drops CPU clock, probably not the best choice.

I flashed HALCYON EAS kernel from here: it uses schedutil governor by default and it allowed me to watch YouTube with no glitches while copying something to SD card in background, which is not possible with ROM's default kernel.

Hi there.

I have Xiaomi mi pad 4 plus (clover) - LTE - 10.1''.

I was at Miui 10.1 original. My tablet was encrypted.

After i unlocked my bootloader, i followed this steps, and all went good, without problem.

I will post the steps, because it can help someone.

I flashed lineage-18.1-20210315-UNOFFICIAL-clover.zip.

What's the difference to lineage-18.1-20210321-UNOFFICIAL-karin_windy.zip ?

STEPS:

1. fastboot boot img (Mokee TWRP 3.3.1);

2. Backup all partitions to internal storage and after copy to PC;

3. Flashed Mokee TWRP 3.3.1 (decrypt support) -> From TWRP install image after 'fastboot boot img'.

4. Reboot to recovery;

5. Format data;

6. Wipe data + system + Dalvik + cache;

7. Reboot to recovery;

8. Copy ROM folder to internal storage;

9. Install ROM (LOS 18.1) + NikGapps (basic) + Magisk v22;

10. Wipe Dalvik + cache;

11. Reboot to system;

Until now, everything seems perfect. Tested:

-Wifi;

-Bluetooth;

-Screen mirroing;

-Finger sensor;

-(...)

Best regards and thank you sabar_op.

PS: I forgett to tell that i have NO problem with google store and i installed NikGapps (basic).

:) I am experienced about flashing, but i found your thread at the weekend. Maybe if is ok to you, its better to make a warning at your first post. Someone less experienced can think all the recoveries and roms are for the same device...

One more time thank you for your excelent work.
[Xiaomi Mi Pad 4 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] andyyy1:
I did the same way except two steps. I used the latest TWRP 3.5.1_9 and skipped step 8.

After completing the LOS wizard I installed Magisk Manager App activated Magisk Hide, added the module Universal SafetyNet Fix and selected the Google Playstore in the Magisk hide list manually. The Google Play Services were selected by default (in my case). After that I registered my Google account in the playstore, but my device was not certified. Then I did few other things on the pad and then I went back to the playstore and suddenly it states device certified. Wow :) Hopefully it stays like that.

A big thankyou to sabar_op, pndwmal and all the xda supporters. Great job.

Hi there.

andyyy1: What FW did you have before? Did you had your pad encrypted ? Is it encrypted now ?

I assume if you used TWRP official last version, you had to format the DATA partition to make it desencrypted and now you are on a desencrypted pad.

Is it possible to encrypt the phone again ? does this ROM support encryption... if not, only for academic curiosity, is it possible, and what are the steps ?

Thank you again sabar_op and pndwal.
[Xiaomi Mi Pad 4 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] andyyy1:
The official china stock rom was installed (V10.3.1.0.ODJCNXM). Correct I did format the DATA partition (wipe did not work) since it was encrypted.

Note sure if LOS supported encryption, but I don't thnik so. But I don't need encryption anyway. I use the pad just at home to tinker around and at the couch. :)
[Xiaomi Mi Pad 4 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] Crescendo Xenomorph:
if the base is the same as used in PE, then encryption isn't working....

it can encrypt but unable to decrypt....

but maybe @sabar_op can make it work since ArrowOS 11 for clover can do encryption so it's possible... maybe cherry picking from it's sources?
