how passed safetyNet? for me, says CTS and Basic Integrity Failed, ROM 05-24 and Magisk 23. :(

Edit: Works now, only enable Magisk Hide haha,

[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] matiaslaporte:
In case someone else suffers from this problem (a failed upgrade to a OSS vendor version, followed by a bootloop), I did the following steps to recover everything:

* Once in the bootloop, I went into recovery (OrangeFox) and did a backup of the data partition

* I copied that backup to my computer

* I copied everything from Internal Storage to my computer

* I reflashed stock MIUI (surya_eea_global_images_V12.0.8.0.QJGEUXM_20210205.0000.00_10.0_eea_cc0a2e386f)

* I flashed OrangeFox again

* I transferred ArrowOS to the phone (I had 2021-03-19 from a previous backup, but you can try with the one @Zleilndka5 kindly uploaded below)

* I installed that version and rebooted to recovery

* I formatted the data partition

* I transferred my OrangeFox backup back to the phone and restored only the data partition

* I copied all my Internal Storage files back to the phone

* I installed magisk

* I booted into system

* At first I had lost my status bar, notification bar and the navigation buttons, but after another reboot everything worked again.

So, basically, I did the same steps as originally needed to install ArrowOS, only with the backups of the /data/ partition and Internal Storage *before* nuking the phone (installing stock ROM), and the restore *after* formatting the data partition.

Although I had an initial error (missing bars and navigation, which made it a bit difficult to use the phone... but I could access apps by pressing the power button, going into settings, and then into "Apps", etc.), everything solved -luckily- with another reboot.

Those who are with the bootloop, then, try the previous steps... they worked for me, I was lucky I didn't lose my calm (too much), and I hope they work for you.

Thank you!

Hi guys, I am currently on the build "20210408-GAPPS" but want to switch to the latest OSS build. I cannot seem to find the firmware for my "Karna" device. When I tried flashing "12.0.8.0.RJGEUXM" firmware in twrp, it showed an error saying this is for Surya and my device is Karna. Where can I find Karna firmware?
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] metaxda:
Follow the instructions in the OP, that's the more correct thing to do.

The idea behind installing an Android 11 firmware (12.0.7 or 12.0.8 ) is to prepare your phone's firmware for the custom ROM's

The new ROMs are "OSS vendor" type, so the ROMs 'assume' that you have at least some type of Android 11 already as a 'base' on your phone.

When certain guides were written, only 12.0.7 firmwares were out, but since then 12.0.8 and 12.0.9 firmwares have come out.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] ManovSteele:
Sorry for the noob question but I'm struggling to work out my options. I installed the 15th May build OTA over one from April and as with others lost my data due to not backing up. Fixed it with new firmware and data wipe.

If I want to update to a newer version to fix the broken NFC, what are my options, as I gather OTA currently doesn't work with the current recoveries?

Can I just add it to my SD card and dirty flash?
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] DamnNear:
Does DSU work in this rom?

Can I install Android 12 Beta 1?

Am asking because once I download A12 beta 1 GSI and I get the restart prompt it doesn't boot to A12, instead it boots directly to ArrowOS like nothing happened.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] DamnNear:
Correct. Moving it to SD card works like a charm, or you can download ArrowOS Custom Recovery found in post #1, note that this recovery is very limited.

Edit 1: i'll install Arrow recovery and update OTA to latest (May 26, 2021) as of today.

___

Edit 2: tried to update from May 5th OSS to May 26 OSS using ArrowOS recovery result in a non bootable device, system returning me to Arrow recovery with a message saying that Arrow can't boot and i must format data (several boot attempts failed). So i basically lost everything now, great.

Moral of the story is don't use any recovery for OTA, just download zip and install manually. (LMAO i just relized that the update did go through after all i just had to format Data to use my device. Intresting)
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] InContext:
After waiting a little while, I've installed the OSS version tonight. I have the (everywhere else) Global version.

Installed the latest firmware EEA Global V12.08... Arrow Vanilla, Magisk v23, NanoDroid MicroG and Bromite. 19.26GB of 128GB used.

I'm using OrangeFox, so yes no decryption (have an SDcard so not worried), also had a little issue with ADB/sideloading, I sideloaded Magisk without a problem, but then tried to sideload MicroG and got an error.

I could still transfer everything over to the SDCard though (I enabled MTP in OFox to do that originally), so just put everything on there and installed MicroG and Bromite through Magisk, after rebooting.

I'm in the process of setting everything up, and going to bed, so won't know about calls/messaging/etc. and stuff until tomorrowish.

I have the latest vanilla arrowOS + omni nikGApps installed with twrp 3.4.0-15 from mauronofrio. I just tried to do OTA update and it failed. looking at the first page I found FAQ's question 2:

The current available recoveries are outdated and are no longer supported for OSS builds. To have a hassle free OTA experience use the above mentioned ArrowOS recovery

but when I try to install recovery.img I'm asked to choose which partition to flash this image. the options are:

boot

dtbo

recovery

persist

super

my doubts are:

which one should I choose?

can I do this recovery image flashing without losing any current data (apps, photos, authenticated banking apps) ?

does this recovery replaces mauronofrio's twrp?

if any of these doubts are already answered, please be patient linking me where to look at
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] Master One:
Not using any GAPPS but microG instead, so I can't tell you anything about this.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] blekr:
Neither morals nor stories, i have installed all OTA updates automatically through recovery, except when the developer decided to migrate to OSS Vendor. The installation problems or errors are not due to recovery. They are the fault of users who do not read the recommendations. The migration process has already been discussed for several pages. I don't understand why there are still users stupid to upgrade from a MIUI provider build to the new OSS provider build, simply wanting to update the recovery .zip, when this would mean data loss without having made a copy of security, and then they come here with their irony to complain or cry that they have lost their information
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] coxackie:
you should flash on recovery. It will overwrite twrp. nothing will happen to your data. The easiest way is to go to fastboot mode, and through command line from your PC (given that you have abd/fastboot utilities) type "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" (given that recovery.img is in the working directory).

all the above being said, I am *not* sure whether your gapps will be able to update, as I do not know whether their addon script will work if data is encrypted. The same is true if you have magisk flashed; its addon script will not succeed, and you will have to re-flash it manually.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] AcaSia0388:
Wait for the volte bug to be fixed soon....

Everything works fine. I haven't tested nfc.

Everyone, I have a question.

The default dial app for this arrow-rom is Google Dial.

Therefore, there is no automatic recording function.

So, can I install the default dial app (auto-recorded one) used by other ROMs??

Where can I install it? (Flashing or apk)
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] Immortal68:
If you activated USB debugging you can download the most recent version to pc and flash it in recovery even with encrypted internal memory through adb sideload (if it's supported by the recovery).

You'll need to reroot with magisk like that, but it works w/o pdiblems.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] peacemaker885:
The only way I got this to install is to revert to stock rom.

miflash to stock

unlock (since flashing to stock re-locked the phone)

install recovery

flash latest "R" firmware (if you want your wifi to work)

flash Arrow

format data (important or else will boot loop)

reboot to system

profit

Edit: I was coming from pre-OSS

Edit2: PE and EU Rom did not require me to flash back to stock. I interchanged these two without any issue whatsoever.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] DamnNear:
Wtf are talking about, who said I was on MIUI vendor, I was very clear in my post that I was on the first OSS version before updating to latest ArrowOS.

That recovery which was supposed to work with OTA ArrowOS from Open Source Vendor to Open Source Vendor didn't work as expected and instead booted to ArrowOS recovery with failed to boot message with one option only and that was to Factory Reset to use my phone again.

Go back to school and relearn how to read before you start calling people idiots.

[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] FiliBrushedRed:
Hey guys! Haven't updated since April... I'm glad I came to read all this... So if I understand correctly my options are

1. Update to the latest ArrowOS and clean flash with A11 Firmware

2. Stay on builds before the OSS thing (BTW I'd really appreciate if you could upload the GAPPS version again please @Zleilndka5 , the WeTransfer link expired)

Now... Once recoveries are able to decrypt, Will I be able to flash normally via ota or at least WITHOUT formatting data? Im working from home and need LOTS of 2 factor auth apps and i don't want to lose those

Hello I install a new version of arrow os and nfc does not work.

SafetyNet pass all but when try to pay nothing happens.

What u guys think, , add and remove my card from googlepay and ing and still not work.

Do I need to lock the bootloder? I dont have root !!!

Newest changelog says "Fixed issues related to NFC.". I've just tested it after updating to 2021-05-26 build and it works fine (it didn't work on the 05-15 version I was coming from).

Also thanks to everyone earlier who clarified my options for upgrading from a post-OSS build, it was very easy.

- Downloaded newest version to SD card

- Rebooted to Recovery

- Flashed ROM and Magisk

- Cleared Caches

- Worked fine

I'm on 26.05. version did "update" from 03.05. with all the steps.

I have a problem with my USB stick I used since 6 Months for backup from handy to USB, with this version I can not use the stick under USB there is no changing from loading to mtp or file transfer. I guess it's an error on the Rom or is OSS the bad one?

EDIT: Working with 27.05. rom! (had to use sideload to "update")

I am using this ROM well.

The bank app works well and works well with wifi, data, and sige alarms.

However, the receiving number error is still inconvenient bug.

Delete All + No interfaces in recent items. This is a flaw.

Staying on low-speed charging.

High speed support is not available.

Why not high speed after OSS??

ota does not automatically update.

After my booting, twrp does not continue on the first side and stops.

nfc?? why?

Hi, has anyone noticed the bug with proximity sensor? Even if you pull phone off your face, it still fails to turn on screen almost everytime. Also raise of wake ambient display is not working all the time mostly. I clean flashed the rom, on the 26th may build
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] MESA:
Hi all. I need some advice here.

Currently I installed ArrowOS from 26.05.2021 and then flashed a decrypt zip, then optimus drunk kernel and finally magisk. Everything is working, storage is not encrypted. Now if I want to update to the latest update from 27.05.2021 for example I am left with the impression that I cannot install the OTA without flashing the OTA recovery (I don't want to do it, because I want to keep my TWRP).

So my plan is:

1. Download the latest 27.05.2021 to SD Card

2. Dirty flash the zip without doing any wipes - will this step encrypt the internal storage? If yes is there a way to OTA update without format data and wipe out everything (I don't want to setup the phone on every flash - that loses the purposes of OTA update for me.

3. Flash Optimus drunk kernel again because rom flashing will overwrite the kernel I guess?
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] blekr:
The problem with the proximity sensor is related to the firmware. (discussed in previous pages), I opened a thread mentioning said problem and the solution.

I already tried global firmware 12.0.9 A10 and same problem.

At least in global version, the latest firmware where it works properly is 12.0.7 A10.

The newest firmware is EU version 12.0.8 A11. You are in that version?, if so then unfortunately we continue with that problem. Currently all A11 versions are betas, hopefully when a stable version comes out (maybe 12.5) this problem will be fixed. But I have a feeling that Xiaomi deliberately maintains this problem.

This is the main reason that has prevented me from migrating to OSS Vendor.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] Manikinator:
Hello, I managed to install the first OSS arrowOS. Now, it's offering to update, but how do you update on the new firmware? Orangefox / TWRP are showing encrypted files, and the basic Arrow recovery is showing "error" after booting.

I'm at this version of fw, 12.0.7_A11. This is supposed to have this bug too? And why do you think xiaomi will keep this bug?

This bug is so annoying that i think of switching the rom 5 times a day. Also why do developers have to switch to oss version and a11 fw?

Btw, this fw was given by developers of rom to flash with rom, can i flash some other fw with latest arrow? So that proximity works fine

Short update to my last post. Google Pay works out of the box with magisk on payment terminals. I was able to try it out in the supermarket today.

[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] blekr:
Yes. Version 12.0.7 A11 has that problem.

And why do I think Xiaomi wants to keep that problem? Maybe to force you to switch devices.

Please try version 12.0.8 A11, and tell me. Someone commented that they have no problems but I became obsessed with that problem that I am not so sure that is true since curiously many do not notice

Install the app "multitool sensors" (it may be another app, this is the one I use) and test by placing your hand and removing your hand repeatedly. Usually the first few times will work fine , but later you will notice how the sensor remains stuck (if the fault is there).
