I have first time flashed crdroid with version 17 April 2023 (clean flash cause i used arrowos before) + nikgapps core (lastest one) and was all ok. I skip previously update and flashed yesterday newest one. I'm curious why i have bootloop after first update and reboot...
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] brackenhill_mob:
I had a similar issue with the last April build and fixed it by flashing clean_dynamic_groups.zip which I got from TheStrechh's forum on Telegram MOD EDIT: LINK REMOVED | READ THIS TO KNOW WHY
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] iakoboss7:
:O

that is very useful actually!

can u

fully

explain with details your setup and the issue u got?

also just flashing it everything was back to normal? no need to do anything else? all apps just worked as before?
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] brackenhill_mob:
The issue I had was that MindTheGapps didn't install Android Auto as it should have done. It is quite possible that other apps didn't install (Contacts Sync etc) but I didn't investigate as AA is my goto test as I use this all the time in my car.

I reinstalled 9.4 several times after a full /data wipe with the same result. I then did a fresh, full wipe flash with NikGapps which worked. Looking at the 2 gapps zip files, there are fundamental differences in the way each installs app apks, so I knew I had a problem when one worked (Nik) and one didn't (MTG which I've used for a long time so I know what to expect).

I'm running MIUI 12.5.8 as the base.

So I wiped /data and flashed clean_dynamic_groups.zip and rebooted to TWRP. Then I flashed CRD and did a system boot. When it finished booting and I reached the setup stage, I rebooted to TWRP and flashed MTG. When the phone rebooted, and I'd been through the setup stage, Android Auto was present. Result ;)

HTH
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] iakoboss7:
pretty much the same, except the bootloop, i somehow avoided that but got the google apps (and others, like Outlook) issue.

IMHO there is indeed smth wrong with the latest update as there are 2-3ppl with issues.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] temporarium:
Not to offend anyone, but to pipe in and thank @GtrCraft for releasing vanilla versions. I don't use gapps and this only reaffirms my resolve.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] Jangoux:
Does this rom work out of the box with google wallet / nfc payments ?

Also, i am currently running Arrow OS 12 and it freezes when playing videos, mostly windowed videos. Does this rom works well with such videos?
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] legedug01:
Just for elightenment.

I have flashed this rom from original updated rom, to v9.3 first, and never flash additional gapps.

After that i've updated to version 9.4 and version 9.5 via ota updated (downloaded from my smartphone directly)

Once there was a problem for reinstalling magisk, but upter that, the magisk has been installed automatically, after flasshing the rom.

I've never got serious problem after installing this rom.

As for information after switching to custom rom and after formatting the data there is a trick that I should reboot TWRP than flashed these custom rom.

Many thank's to these rom Dev for his effort.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] iakoboss7:
it seems that the keyword is "OTA update", it works better than flashing through TWRP.

@legedug01 what gapps did u use?
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] legedug01:
The rom itself contain gapps, so I did not flash additional gapps.

While flashing through OTA, it redirect to TWRP for rom and magisk.

Oh for the first time I used mindthegapps, after that just flashing the rom via ota
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] iakoboss7:
rom does not contain gapps.

yeah it might have been a gapps issue after all :/
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] legedug01:
The Developer said used MindTheGaps. I used it first time switching to this rom, after that flash via OTA (or may be dirty flashing).

Note from maindthegapps:

MindTheGapps​

Maintained by LineageOS contributor Alessandro Astone, AKA XDA senior member aleasto, MindTheGapps is yet another compact GApps distribution. This one is particularly known in the community for being the officially recommended GApps solution by the LineageOS team for its custom ROM.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] iakoboss7:
btw following the download links from https://wiki.lineageos.org/gapps

takes us here: https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=322935&sort_by=date&sort_dir=DESC

which has a newer version than https://sourceforge.net/projects/wsa-mtg/files/arm64/20230323/ or https://mindthegapps.com/download/

i guess the best to use would indeed be https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=322935&sort_by=date&sort_dir=DESC as it is from the owner of Mindthegapps and the latest.

@GtrCraft u might want to include this on the 1st post?
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] iakoboss7:

It was actually unexpected because it REALLY appeared only after the rom update (i did nothing else at the time).

I believe something was corrupted or "unhooked" while updating the rom back them and by updating the app it fixed itself!

[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] Pumpino:
I would like to switch from the bloated GApps I'm currently using. I believe the process to follow would be wiping the system partition and then flash crDroid and the new GApps, without wiping data. Is this correct?

The issue I have is that in both TWRP and OrangeFox, there's no option to wipe the system partition. If I go into the Mount menu and select the system partition, it doesn't appear in the Advanced Wipe menu. On my Mi 9T Pro, the system partition is listed in the Advanced Wipe menu.

EDIT: The solution to remove NikGApps is to flash the ZIP you initially flashed, after renaming it to UnInstall.zip. Very clever. https://nikgapps.com/misc/2023/03/0...aming-the-zip-to-uninstallzip-and-flashing-it

Hello to all, I have a problem

1st time

Flashed last fw (V14.0.1.0.SJGMIXM_20230215.0000.00_12.0_globa) from fastboot

first start wiht miui 14

flashed last twrp recovery + Cr last version + Mindgapps last+ magisk26

factory reset + format data (from recovery) and finally flashed disable encrypt

First boot I'm unable to setup wifi (after entering the wifi key nothing happens)

I go ahead with mobile data but when entering the google account, I can't enter the google account because the email entry screen keeps restarting (loop check update and check information)

2nd time

The same as above but with nikigapps

Wifi ok but same result with google account, loop check update and check information.......

Try also by sideload, nothing changed

Do you have any suggestions?
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] iakoboss7:
please let us know how this go, if u had any issues with removing and installing other version, apps not behaving etc etc.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] iakoboss7:
make sure u are indeed using latest versions of everything:

xiaomi rom: https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/miui/surya/

twrp: https://sourceforge.net/projects/surya-twrp/files/stable/

nikgapps: https://sourceforge.net/projects/nikgapps/files/Releases/NikGapps-T/

mindgapps: https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=322935&sort_by=date&sort_dir=DESC

magisk: https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk (use stable)

also do not install Magisk initially. do it after u have set up your phone.

so imho:

1. xiami flash tool and flash the latest version for your REGION, let phone boot, check for any updates, install if available.

2. adb sideload twrp

3. install only rom + gapps (wipe and format data after installation)

4. boot, set up phone restore backup etc.

5. install magisk.

@GtrCraft I love the new update with Miui Camera and all the optimizations, I just have a request, can you please replace the MIUI camera with Leica Camera in your next update of this ROM? I think Leica Camera is a much refined version of MIUI stock camera app and a majority likes it over the stock app.

I was using it before the latest update but since you've added MIUI camera in the latest update, It doesn't work anymore, whenever I install the magisk module of it, my app drawer starts appearing a Fisheye titled camera app that doesn't open.

I would like to hear your thoughts on this please.

Thankyou
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] Truzzman2:
All done but same result with Mindgapps, no wifi, no way to access to google play (loop).....

With nikgapss same flow (first miui 14 with xiaomi utlity, phone set up, adb for twrp ) ok wifi but always the problem with google accout setup........

Now I'm tryng another rom.....

You can copy the Miuicamera.apk from the unzipped Magisk-Module to /system/priv-app/MiuuCamera. This works fine 👍

Before this delete Data of Miuicamera.

After replacing you have to reboot your phone

I do have a question though, this will only replace the app with the Leica version but what about all the libraries that are in the module zip file? Will not including those affect the picture processing somehow?
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] Pumpino:
I ended up doing it on two devices, so I can report on not only Surya, but on my Mi 9T Pro, too. :)

Both were running crDroid with NikGApps Omni. It was taking a ridiculous amount of time in OrangeFox to backup and restore all of its components whenever I flash a crDroid update, so I wanted to switch to NikGApps Core.

It worked as expected. I renamed the Omni ZIP to UnInstall.zip and flashed it. I then flashed the Core ZIP and rebooted. I noticed that some of the AOSP components were missing (perhaps the calculator or calendar, etc), which would have been because Omni had removed them and replaced them with Google apps, so I returned to recovery and flashed crDroid. This resolved it.

I did notice on both phones that after one of the initial restarts, two of the navigation keys were missing and the quick settings wouldn't display. This was resolved with a restart. I was convinced I'd be looking at having to wipe, but it was just a glitch and everything is working perfectly.

Hi,

I've set up a clean install of crdroid, with no gapps and have flashed magisk with it. I've experienced an issue where even though I've given permission for location access, no app can seem to get the location. Not Osmand, not the browser, nothing other than apparently the camera app because it is the only app listed under recent location access list.

Do you pass all the microG self-tests? Did you enable the location modules?
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] BittyBob:
Hello, Thanks a lot for your quick reply. I tried to install the Magisk module as you suggested, but rooting causes some other problems (some applications detect it even if my setting pass the Safetynet or rootbeer test). So I wanted to come back to a solution to install MicroG without rooting as it was before the last crdroid upgrade (altough with some quirks : the selftest passed and some applications worked fine and other did not detect de Google Play service).

And I finally found a solution : https://xdaforums.com/t/mod-flashable-microg-unofficial-installer.3432360/

This installer installs MicroG components. The "full" version contains the real Google Play Store app, but it crashed on my system. The "OSS version contains only open source components and it works fine (after allowing signature spoofing to Fakestore). Now all my installed apps work, except one banking app which detect that the app is not installed with Google Play Store (if anyone has an idea to circumvent this... ;) )

Dirty flash (or OTA flash) no need to flash gapps again.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] wCk32d7:
Hello

Thank you for your reply, I meant it more so if it is not a good idea to update the Gapps packages once in a while through security risks and new features.

For example, MindTheGapps releases a new version of their Gapps every now and then in which security risks will probably be fixed and new features added.

My understanding is that if I don't update my Gapps packages then my default apps for calling sms and so on will be outdated and possibly unsafe.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] legedug01:
Actually once we install gapps, and new ROM has been released and installed, we never flashed gapps again because gapps has been updated via play store.

That's why gapps always updated as updated in the play store.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] m0han:
Not 'every now and then'. Except A13, the other packages haven't had a 'new version' for a long time.

[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] _arafel_:
It does say "clan flash mandatory"? I tried it via OTA, when it was suggested as an install with no warning whatsoever.

I then tried the OTA and it rebooted directly into recovery, with the error "init_user0_failed". A subsequent dirty flash didn't help either and I had to reinstall the previous version. Luckily this worked.

But if it requires a clean flash, then it shouldn't be offered as an OTA.

You're right - it shouldn't be offered as an OTA update. I've always said that custom ROM devs should add "WIPE" or something similar in the ROM filename, so that users that don't read the changelog aren't left with a brick. Being stuck with an unbootable phone with official firmware isn't acceptable to users, so why should it be acceptable to custom ROM users? I know it's necessary, but just give people a warning.

For that I need to go to the menu and then click on it. Not something exactly obvious to do, especially if you are using a "stable" series (i.e. no nightlies or dev builds) and don't expect this kind of breaking change.

I can understand that the infrastructure currently doesn't contemplate this case, so although theoretically it could be changed (everything can be changed, it's code after all), I understand that it's probably not practical unless there's a complete rewrite for some other reason.

However, there are some things that might be easier to do. Please don't take this as a criticism, but just as suggestions so you don't unnecessarily annoy unsuspecting users if/when something like this happens again:

You are already adding some information fields in the update screen (maintainer, type of build, etc.) Perhaps it would be possible to add an "important message" field that, when present in an update, would be shown in bold red letters. Even just checking if the first line of the changelog starts with IMPORTANT would do it.

Consider bumping the version. IIRC the previous "breaking" change was from 9.2 to 9.3. If I see that it's a new version, I'm more likely to check the changelog and/or expect big or breaking changes. Even if changing the minor is not possible because you need to stay in sync with the rest of the builds, perhaps adding a revision like 9.5.1 or even 9.5-1 would be enough to make people check the changelog.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] GtrCraft:
All these things are out of my reach, I am just a device maintainer. And it's common knowledge that custom rom do need more clean flashes than stock roms etc. I always read the changelog before updating anything. And I can't fix users.
