Does anybody have a Maruti Suzuki Car with Wireless Android Auto and POCO F1 with custom ROM ?

My phone has an issue where when I connect my phone through AA wireless, it connects for a few seconds and then it disconnects. When I look at the WiFi list , when its connected for few seconds, the car's wifi is connected and then it disconnects followed by AA wireless. No matter what I do, this always happens. Android Auto works perfectly through wired connection.

Things I tried :

Different ROMs : PixelOS, crdroid, LineageOS, MIUI stock ROM.

Factory Reset (Car stereo and Phone)

Cleaned cache and data

Gave all the permissions

Installed Firmware again.

Tried also without additional apps(Google One backup) installed after reset.

It is just my POCO F1 which causes this issue. I have tested Xperia Z1 Compact (LineageOS), Oneplus 5(Stock), MI A3 (Stock), Oneplus Nord 2 (Stock) and POCO X3 (PixelOS) in that same Infotainment and they all work flawlessly. The only thing left for me to test is another POCO F1 with my car's stereo.

One Thing to note : Out of all ROMs I tried, PixelOS was the smoothest.

Does anybody have Maruti Suzuki Car with AA wireless and POCO F1, if yes, does it work ?

Or Can somebody help me with this ? What else I can do to solve this problem. This is the only reason which is forcing me to buy another phone ...
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] HannibalLecter:
for me reloaded OS is the smoothest. although I love Ricedroid the most because of its great features and customisation. love the big bold geo something lockscreen font. and the sounds collection is also awesome.

the only reason I am using reloaded OS 22 feb 2023 build is because work profile works on that. after march I guess, to avoid os constantly pinging google servers for updates, they made changes to host file which is marked risky by Symantec because they created localhost for saving battery.

Host file values to block google updates causing error in SEP mobile security app · Issue #4670 · PixelExperience/android-issues

Derpfest is really good too, has some nice lockscreen fonts. But for me I think lineage and crdroid are the best.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] HannibalLecter:
cr droid is not smooth as far as I have tested.

baikal OS has dolby but its not as loud as oxygen OS port(which I have stopped using as we discussed a couple of pages back :P )

derpfest I can try. but work profile syamtec host file risky issue might be there since every rom developer has picked up that localhost redirection in hosts file after march. only PE guy has fixed (attached GitHub issue link above)

I only like that one particular font on ricedroid.(I use the ricedroid on one plus 6 also and on the AOD it looks mind blowing big bold geomtatic something is the name) will post screenshot tomorrow :D

can you help me with the host file screenshot of derpfest?

[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] ARJ007S:
Yes, I did that too. I changed bitrate, codec etc. But still same. I don't think Bluetooth is the problem because AA wireless connect through Wifi I guess and it stops working only after WiFi disconnects. I can hear music playing for few seconds but with stutter and then it disconnects.

I have collected logs when I was on Crdroid through it's log tools. Will that help in identifying the issue ?

Also music playback without Android Auto is fine without any issue.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] first_damned:
I presume the logs would point out what's happening, best to point it out to the developer of the rom

Hi guys, I hope this is the best place to ask such a question: my F1, currently on Pixel Experience 12 will go soon to a well earned pension; I plan to stuff two backup sim cards in it and use it just to check text messages from time to time. I'm looking for a ROM with the best possible energy savings options. I remember from my Motorola MotoG with LineageOS 14 that there was a battery saving switch, which - on one hand - was slowing the device a lot, but at the same time was giving him like 10 or more days before the device starts asking for a charger. What ROM available for Poco F1 could give me something similar (I mean, energy saving options, not 10 days of battery life ;))? Is LineageOS 19/20 an option is this regard?

BTW, I need Google Services too.

Do you have any informations on LawRun kernel? The thread just appeared but the information is a bit unclear. Maybe even check their Telegram? I don't use the latter.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Retrial:
As far as I know, this kernel have very bad reputation in telegram groups and is consider "unsafe" since many people damaged their devices as they reported. I wouldn't recommend using it.

Here is a note from f1 telegram group about it.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Alias X:
Didn't know hardware damage was even a concern. Well, thanks for the warning.

Any other recent shift in the kernel meta or is NGK still the MVP?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Retrial:
For custom kernels NGK and SC are still the best options in my opinion.

I personally use the stock kernel of crDroid nowdays since I don't need something special 😛

Hi guys,

The charger that came with my poco f1 died few days ago. I bought a new one but doesn't seem to fast charging.

Can you suggest me a good third party charger for F1? I also read, it support QC4+ according to Qualcomm device list: https://www.qualcomm.com/content/da...ocuments/Accessory_List_QCOM_Quick_Charge.pdf
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Alias X:
Any Anker or UGreen charger that supports the same wattage+ampage and charging standard as the original should honestly do. I think the original is 18W max with three different modes? Shouldn't be too expensive.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Retrial:
Yeap, I am looking one anker + cable now but seems kinda expensive for 18w charger. Well you get what you pay xD I guess I will go with that.

I am just confused because I see Qualcomm certified F1 as QC4+ but Xiaomi says QC3 and included QC3 charger. Some people say 27w max charger QC4+ will be fine and others to not go above 18w.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Alias X:
A good 35W charger should support any and all of it if you want to spend the cash. But I don't think it does more than 18W.

Thank you, what is your top recommendation currently for the ROM that delivers an experience closest to google pixel? With great performance and battery life?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Retrial:
Tbh, more or less most ROMs are similar in performance/battery.

If you want to feel like very Pixel then PixelOS or Pixel Experience - if you are ok sometimes to stay behind on updates.

If you want overall a good ROM with nice customizations and continuous active development then crDroid+GApps or AwakenOS. Both are good. I personally use crDroid nowdays.

[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Retrial:
All the awarded ROMs at OP should be fine. Choose what you like more.

I personally recommend you crDroid+GApps or AwakenOS but other ROMs are also good. You can also use BSG GCam which really stable.

Hello @Retrial I have an issue with my Poco F1..(just happen 2 days ago until now..).it's occasionally reboot itself after opening games like genshin impact and honkai star rail...for the first sign,i got play time of the genshin like 20 minutes and the phone reboot automatically...while with honkai star rail even worse (reboot before entered login page).and I got another reboot after I left the screen off (fyi I use zank remote atm to controlled the TV) and when I opened the lock screen it got reboot again...
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Retrial:
Hi,

What ROM/Kernel u use?

It may be battery issue or heating due of the high temps of summer.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] lizarazilla:
Miui 12...I don't use any of custom content yesterday after the problem showed up but last night I changing ROM into crdroid just like what you recommend at this thread...😁 but still the problem still there after I try to reinstalled honkai star rail,reboot while the login page showed up....
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Retrial:
If you changed ROM and still the issue persists then it shouldn't be a ROM issue.

This only happens with the specific game?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] lizarazilla:
I don't think so...I tried another game like asphalt 8 (just installed it on crdroid)and not for long after some percentages of additional file download,the phone gets reboot again....

Also I played "Honkai impact" which is as heavy as genshin or honkai star rail anyway but the game just doing fine for the task....very frustrating anyway...😮‍💨

This is also should be an easy task,am i right?...
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Retrial:
How old is your battery? Have you ever changed it? Is it really hot in your place? It may be heating issue or battery.

Amazing thread, @Retrial !! Thanks a lot!!

I just got my hands on a poco f1, and I'm looking for an up-to-date, clean, and stable rom for everyday use as a primary device. What would your current recommendation be?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Retrial:
Hi thanks,

CrDroid+GApps or AwakenOS (Gapps included).

Official LineageOS is also good but you need to root and install module to make safetynet pass.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Kadavro:
Thanks for the suggestions. As for root, it's ok, because I always like to have access to use some applications, and mainly to remove ads.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Retrial:
Then you can also use Official LineageOS but keep in mind it doesn't have many customizations you may find useful compared to other ROMs 😋
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Kadavro:
Anyway, I'm more likely to try one of these two (CrDroid or AwakenOS) + Magisk. ;)
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Kadavro:
Sorry to take up your time, last questions: are these three options equivalent in battery consumption? And which ROM do you use?

Thanks again! 🤝
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Retrial:
y all of these should have the same battery consumption.

I personally use crDroid but AwakenOS is also good. crDroid is based on Los, while AwakenOS on AOSP.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Kadavro:
I have a problem. I'm still stuck with the original rom, because after unlocking the bootloader (this step worked), I'm not able to install the recovery (twrp-beryllium-v3.7.0-A12-V2). It turns out that when I run the command fastboot boot twrp-beryllium-v3.7.0-A12-V2.img the device is automatically encrypted and the first twrp screen asks for a password (which I obviously don't know). And therefore I am without access to the internal storage and I can not install the recovery. And when I restart the system, I can't even use it anymore, because now the device is really encrypted and the only solution is to format it, but when I redo the whole procedure everything happens exactly as I described. So what should I do?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Retrial:
Wipe everything (dalvik art, cache, system, system_ext, data, internal storage, vendor)+format data, connect your device to pc, transfer recovery+rom+gapps, flash recovery on recovery slot, restart to recovery then install custom rom.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Kadavro:
Excuse my ignorance (because it seems that I am missing something), but when you tell me to wipe everything, I understand that it is through twrp, but as I said, twrp is practically unusable because as the device is somehow encrypted in the first boot, twrp can't mount any partitions and therefore, it doesn't even format them.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Retrial:
try to use official recovery to wipe + format: https://dl.twrp.me/beryllium/
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Kadavro:
That one worked. Thank you again! 🍻
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Retrial:
You should flash TWRP by REIGNZ afterwards. Only that recovery works with Encrypted ROMs.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Kadavro:
After installing everything (crDroid + NikGapps-retrial) + Magisk, the device seems to be working properly (I still have a lot to test). But when I open the Magisk app I get this message: "Your device needs to re-flash Magisk to work properly. Reinstall Magisk in app, recovery mode can't get proper device information." And according to my experience with Magisk on other devices, this message is normal on first use, but the problem is that now after I re-flash within the app, the phone goes into bootloop on the next reboot. Any known solution for this case?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Retrial:
I don't use Magisk on Poco F1 so I am not aware of the issue. Other people using Magisk fine.

You flash magisk after the first boot or while you flashing ROM?

1. Flash ROM+Gapps let the ROM boot.

2. Reboot to TWRP, flash latest Magisk (links at OP) and reboot to system. It should work.

If you get a bootloop try dirty flash the ROM+Gapps again according to the dirty installation guide.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Kadavro:
No, I installed the ROM + Gapps, rebooted to recovery and installed Magisk, and then rebooted to system for the first time (same as your guide).

Anyway I found out that the bootloop problem was not caused by the magisk itself, but because the reinstall within the Magisk app uses recovery. And it happens that when I do the command to restart to recovery mode (from within the system and at any time) the device enters bootloop (which is not normal).

As for Magisk, it seems that it is installed, but in Ramdisk the status is NO (searching about it, I saw that some Xiaomi have this problem, but not all and I don't know if the Poco F1 is affected).
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Kadavro:
Just to update my case (may be useful for someone else): I installed the recovery from the rom itself (crDroid in this case), and reinstalled Magisk. Now everything is working as it should. Including Ramdisk status for yes.

And no more bootloop when rebooting to recovery.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] ARJ007S:
When TWRP asks for password. You can type the same password as your Android Screen Lock password. Or, you can simply click on cancel and you will be in TWRP menu but the data will be encrypted, then you can try to format and wipe the phone. After, this TWRP will boot normally until you flash the ROM and put screen lock on your phone.
