No it's not included anymore since LineageOS 17 if I remember correctly. Yes, you're right, the weather functionality was a bit tricky to setup but the most interesting part, to me was the calendar functionality that blended perfectly with the Home screen and offered a lot of options

Small update over the 17/07/2021 update: (I've updated the changelog)

Added ANXCamera to my AFH Mirror, modded to work in A11 for Beryllium. It's Magisk Module and No Addon needed. Thanks and credits to althafvly.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] amn1987:
Even in ANXCamera the front facing cam is limited to 5MP resolution. There's a 48MPFix for R. That's of no use?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Retrial:
I don't know if it's included on the modded version since I don't use Magisk and ANXCamera. If not, try to apply the 48MPFix manually.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] amn1987:
I flashed the 48MPFix module and the resolution of the images captured by the front cam actually went down. From 5MP to 2.8MP!
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Retrial:
Well then it's seems it's not working in A11? I don't know. 🤷
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Retrial:
Hello guys,

Please for ppl who use DFE etc. Try this twrp recovery made by althafvly.

It should automatic mount the vendor now. Let me know if it's working fine.

I've added Kiwi Browser in Collection at Useful Apps. Kiwi Browser got Major update to the latest chromium and also prepare a project called Kiwi Browser Next. You can find more infos here.

P.S: I have tried Kiwi and it's really awesome with a lot useful features. Worth to mention that is the only Android Chromium Browser, which support extension and with that saying I recommend you to use uBlock Origin.

Directly Downloads:

Kiwi Browser (Playstore)

Kiwi Browser Next (Github)
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] amn1987:
Yandex is another Chromium based browser which has extensions support. Though last time I checked unlike earlier it seemed to be kinda hidden.

Anyway Kiwi is my favorite browser without a doubt. In fact the lack of Kiwi or anything comparable for iOS besides Tasker ultimately prevented me for springing for an iPad. The overwhelming majority of Android tablets, at least anything decent, don't get any custom ROM support so the iPad came into consideration. Sheer perf. alone can't make up for the irrational restrictions and limited software IMO.

Are you sure that you flashed the Global ROM provided in this thread at OP?

I recommend you to flash the latest Firmware (you will find it in OP) and make Clean Install of Stock ROM.

Thanks mate! I really enjoy to help when I can and when I see my Guides and Collection are useful to somebody.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Alvink98:
First time posting here , i've succesfully rooted my poco f1 since last december 2020 following the xda guide . But last night my device auto update to latest version without my permission for some reason and i've already selected do not auto-update . Now i check this morning i found out in magisk app & root checker my phone is not rooted , and i reboot to check the TWRP is completely gone . How do fix this problem and root my device without data lost ? Android version : Miui global 12.0.3.0 stable .
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Retrial:
Hello,

So this happened because as u said ur device updated to the latest version, and recovery and root overwritten. Why u wasn't on latest version anyway? xD

So now, you just need to unlock ur bootloader on ur device (if it's not already unlocked) and flash TWRP and Root again according my Guides at #2. Follow the the fastboot method for TWRP. You will find everything you need there.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Alvink98:
Ty for replying so quickly , so i just need to follow your guide to root again . 1) I still have magisk installed on my device , after flashing twrp how do i root using magisk ? 2) After all the steps , do i still get to keep all my data and root at the same time ?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Retrial:
If u currently have Magisk app installed in ur device open it and press uninstall just to be sure nothing overlap etc.

You will not lose any data, just flash the latest Official TWRP via fastboot and then from TWRP press install and flash the Magisk.apk or the Magisk.zip. (Better to flash the Magisk.apk)
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Alvink98:
I faced another problem which didn't happened during my 1st root attempt , now i download the latest twrp version and minimal fastboot tool and place the .img inside the same folder . But when i'm inside cmd it shows error no such file or directory , i copy the full .img name correctly .
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Retrial:
Try to boot instead of flash with command fastboot boot <name of recovery.img> and then inside twrp go and press install then install image then select the twrp.img from your internal storage and flash it in recovery partition.

Then reboot to recovery and flash Magisk.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Alvink98:
I tried both method still the same error appeared . fastboot boot <name of recovery>.img & fastboot flash recovery <name of recovery>.img . Even tried to run normally & run as administrator . Downloaded few of the latest twrp img file tried it still doesn't work .
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Retrial:
Download official twrp reboot to fastboot on your device, on cmd write fastboot devices and make sure your device it's recognized, then write fastboot boot (the path where twrp-3.5.2_9-0-beryllium.img is). I don't know what else :/

⚠️ Sorry guys, I just notice the AMD Ryzen Fastboot Fix I had made, had syntax error. I've already uploaded the correct one and should work properly. You can find it in my collection, direct download here.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] katoda_ltd:
I was following custom recovery installation guide yesterday while moving my Poco F1 from MIUI 12 to Pixel Experience) (BTW, the entire thread deserves a really huige prize). Point 9 says "Reboot to Recovery by typing in adb: reboot recovery". In my case it did not work, as the phone was still in fastboot mode after flashing recovery (point 8) and did not answer to adb command. fastboot reboot recovery did not work either, finally I succeed by using fastboot boot <recovery image name>.img. Something to double check?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Retrial:
Hello,

Sorry it's adb reboot recovery I will remove " : ". Thanks for mention it. However you could reboot manually to recovery by pressing Power Button + Volume Up (+). :p
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] katoda_ltd:
I forgot to mention, adb reboot recovery did not work either, but I'm unable now to tell you what the error message was. I'm not rom-flashing savvy person (I'm not doing it everyday, rather using adb to give additional privileges to e.g. GSam Battery Monitor or to uninstall some apps following guides published here), but is it possible that phone in fastboot mode responds to commands issued via adb?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Retrial:
Hmm I tried and you are right adb reboot recovery and fastboot reboot recovery does not work.

I will take a look when I have time, for now I will remove this and let the note to manually reboot to recovery.

Thanks.

EDIT: I have changed some steps in INSTALL CUSTOM RECOVERY GUIDE. It should be easier to understand now and guarantee process.

I wanted to know whether there is much of a difference between minmal ADB and the normal one from main SDK platform site or Szkai's github.

As I've tried to detect and run some codes from both modes using Szaki's one and it could detect my device. So curious as to whether I could stick to Szaki's for all situations or not. Casual user, so want to get the only software that would help me do my thing and be done until any big issues occur(hope not).
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Retrial:
Minimal ADB and Fastboot has everything ready out of the box and it's also avaible in portable mode.

The one from main SDK platform need some preparation before you use it.

I didn't knew Szkai's program had cmd command etc, though it was just debloater. I've never used it but if it's working fine for you, you can keep this.

I mostly use MIUI after trying few custom roms once in a while.

Very common issues I face in custom roms are lower network strength and lower earpiece volume on calls.

Any ROMs that you think offers best call volume and network strength?

Which ROMs have u tried? Check the ROMs which have award in the collection. If you have issues report it to the dev of the ROM.

1. Is a move from PE 10 to PE 11 or say PE 12 always a clean flash? From reading so far I think the answer is mostly a Yes.

2. What app can be used to restore app and settings during the transition for users without root and magisk. Or is it recommended to root, use titanium backup and then unroot
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] amn1987:
Switching to a different Android version always necessitates a clean flash.

I don't know of any app which can restore apps and there data without root. Maybe Google Backup? Personally I always root and Swift Backup works exceedingly well. I was previously using Migrate. Haven't had success with TiBu in this regard in years.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] amarprat87:
Google backup brings apps, but no settings. It's not an issue but i was wondering if there are efficient ways out there which i need to learn.

Since you have used migrate and Swift backup, how do they compare. What made you switch to Swift backup. Maybe I'll root, restore and then unroot before configuring banking apps.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] SPLESHER:
You might have turned off option for it or something, I always use Google Backup and it always restores my settings from previous ROM
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] katoda_ltd:
I was switching ROMs recently and Google Backup brought back several already configured apps, but not everything. AFAIK it depends if the app developer made it compatible with Google Backup system, which is not always the case.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] amn1987:
Migrate unlike Swift Backup wasn't compatible with A11 for quite a while which made me check out the latter. There would be occasional issues with Migrate but Swift Backup has been very reliable.

Can you help me with wacom tablet support. Which ROM or kernel support wacom one ctl- series tablet?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] SPLESHER:
Hey, I don't use any wacom tablet, but I'm pretty sure that almost (if not every) kernel/ROM supports USB OTG mode,

Also be sure to use needed accessories to connect it, from what I read on Google you need to have USB-C hub with Type-C to HDMI and USB-A.

From my experience with USB OTG all I can say that it supports Xbox 360 Wired Controller
