New Update: 19/04/2021

Changelog:

Changed the name of Elite ROM which previously was based on official MIUI, now it's based to China beta rom 21.4.1-MIUI 12.6 (Android 11 - Port).

Added link for PixelPlus UI, LeOS and Project Sakura ROMs.

Reordered the ROMs.

Changed the link of Delta and Sentiel Kernel to GitHub for the latest releases.

Marked Twisted, Illusion, Simple and Seshstation Kernel as outdated.

Fixed Open GApps link for Android 11 (Test builds)

Changed OrangeFox Recovery link to xda thread.

Updated Magisk links for ready .zips to Magisk 22.1 (Gradually I will stop making .zips since the .apk of Magisk can be flashed directly as it is, in latest Official TWRP and other recoveries based on that).

Simplified the Magisk Guide.

Added a link near BSG Camera for Video Stabilization Settings. (thanks to @R46N4R0K)

Added Encrypt Data.zip link (thanks to @gwolfu) at Disable Force Encryption (DFE) section and Added "& Encryption" in title. (btw I'am thinking to remove DFE bundle with Magisk, since the Magisk there is outdated)

Added a link to Privacy & Security section for Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) and link to AM I FloCed? by EFF to check if your Chrome browser has been turned into a guinea pig for Federated Learning of Cohorts or FLoC, Google’s latest targeted advertising experiment.

NOTE:⚠️

Just want to clarify some things about my personal awards (Trophy & Medal) to ROMs or Kernels to avoid drama because some questions/rumors started to flow over telegram channels etc.

Awards are just my personal opinion which almost all my criteria are filled up [Popularity, Open Source, Stability, Performance, Security, Up-to-date, Debloated, Bug less, Encrypted by default, SELinux Enforcing and Ready out of the Box (SafetyNet pass by default etc)].

The thread is all about Collection & Guides all in one place. I made this rating system to help noob users to choose a most stable ROM/Kernel with stable and continuously development and keep their devices healthy and updated according their taste without trying ROMs which appear and then disappear cause of inactivity or have some serious bugs and to avoid messing a lot with all these ROMs which available. "Experts" users can ignore these awards if they want and try whatever they think it's better.

I also said in the past, ROMs or Kernels without award (yet) doesn't mean are bad or something (with few exceptions), with respect to developers.

I am not biased on anything, if you have any suggestion on something about the Collection or Guides, found an outdated expired link not working etc. or anything else, let me know in comments.

Just amazing work. Everything in one place and in detail
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] akashrathi7978:
In Developer Mode: USB Debugging & OEM Unlocking is Enabled and device in "Mi Unlock status" is also added

Same Mi account logged in "Mi Unlock tool" and also manually installed USB Driver for Poco F1

After doing all steps, as you can see ADB Tool detects my Poco F1 in normal mode.

But in Fastboot mode, neither the ADB tool

nor Mi Unlock tool shows any connected device (Also I've noticed that in all tutorials Mi Unlock tool's UI was different than this one)

I have 2 cables one is Original (that came with charger) & the other one I bought from Mi website for my F1 is also same

I tried both cables & USB 2.0/3.1 ports as well but the result was the same.

I don't know what's wrong, this was my 1st attempt to flash custom ROMs but here I am stuck on the first step.

Please guide me further

Are you using AMD Ryzen system? Check my AMD Fastboot Fix Guide. If doesn't work, unfortunately you have to use Intel system to unlock and flash TWRP.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] akashrathi7978:
yeah, I'm having AMD Ryzen 5 5500U but there's an update I uninstalled other's 3rd party ADB fastboot tool from "Device Manager" and restarted my laptop and then used Google's ADB tool and extracted it, ran cmd on that path.

This time, on command "fastboot devices" output was

and on my Poco f1 instead of Fastboot animation it was showing "press any key to shut down" (I couldn't see whole coz a part of the text was hidden under notch) this time at least it recognized but something else wasn't correct so ill try ur other guides as well and post the result here soon

this was on USB 2.0 port

Do you mean you want to transfer call logs from your Huawei Mate SE to your OnePlus 6T? If yes, actually it's not that difficult. Mobile Phone Transfer can help us do that easily. With its help, call logs can be transferred between them from the computer via USB Cable or wifi connecting. Good luck to you.

[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] drumandbassfreak:
Hi, my note 9 pro jut arrived, and it turns out that MIUI dropped their dialer, calendar and message apps on european phones, I wanted them back so I want to install xiaomi.eu ROM, but I am aware that google has been a little [bleep] with bootloader unlocking, my questions are simple

Will safetynet Pass even if I don't install Magisk?

I've heard something about altering the /persist partition will make the device to lose any HD video playback capability, is there a way to back it up? dd'ing I guess?

Can it be restored?

I will not touch anything until I have any consistent answer, but the google thing really pisses me off (anyway I have to wait the seven days before applying for unlock)

Thanks in advance
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] Bismuth83:
I'm using the Note 9 Pro global version. If you unlock the bootloader then SafetyNet will fail but locking the bootloader fixes this issue on stock miui. You won't be having SafetyNet related problems with xiaomi.EU even if you root it with magisk.

I bricked my 9T pro when I mistakenly flashed it with 9T rom :(

Now the phone is recognized in device manager as QUALCOMM HS-USB QDLOADER 9008, It won't let me go into Fastboot mode to flash with Mitool.

screen is black all the time, no vibration while pressing power button.

Is there any solution for this, guys? I really need a phone to do my job and I'm kinda in a pickle right now :crying:
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] JimzFreebies:
Download proper drivers of qualcomm from below link (all instructions are given)

https://xiaomifirmware.com/downloads/qualcomm-hs-usb-qdloader-9008/

Then use xiaomi tool v2

https://www.xiaomitool.com/V2/

It will detect your device
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] FreakyFan:
Thank you for the reply! I already had installed that drivers and the problem is, that Mitool V2 says No devices in fastbood mode found. I can't put my phone in fastboot mode :crying:
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] Skynet75:
EDL mode

Put your phone in EDL mode and then flash the official ROM with mi flash tool (search on google how to put Mi 9T pro in EDL mode) do it with your own risk as it involves removal of back glass panel and shorting of 2 pins on the motherboard.

[General Questions and Answers] tsaxda:
Is it safe to clear the dalvik cache, & what exactly is cleared when I clear it? I know it can be cleared with the stock recovery, because I just helped a friend factory reset their phone who has the same phone as me (both unrooted Galaxy On5 with stock ROM) & I saw an option in the list in recovery.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Only cached data gets cleared, more specifically, cached data used by your system apps and services. This cached data will automatically be rebuilt when you reboot the device, you may or may not see a message saying "optimizing apps" while the device is rebuilding dalvik/ART cache during the boot process.
[General Questions and Answers] tsaxda:
What I mean is do I lose anything important like settings/data within apps etc;. & is there any risk of my phone not booting properly? I have backed up what data I could. I've seen posts on quora, asking about different problems they had after clearing dalvik, including one who seemed to think their phone had died, but they all seem to involve rooted phones, because the solution given is always to flash another ROM/reboot to TWRP recovery. I was tempted to do it because I'm running out of space, & somebody online said there dalvik folder was 300MB.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
No, you won't lose anything, as I said, it is only a type of temporary data, data that is used in the background while the device is running, temporary in a similar kind of way as RAM data with the exception that RAM data doesn't necessarily persist from one reboot to the other whereas cached data does persist after reboot, unless wiped, in which case, that cached data will automatically be rebuilt exactly as it Is needed when each app loads at startup on the next reboot after the wipe.

As long as you aren't wiping the system partition or the data partition, you won't lose anything. Wiping cache is nothing to sweat over, it is a very common and necessary process when making changes to your device.

Failing to wipe when making changes to the system are what causes problems, wiping is necessary to avoid having bugs and issues caused by cached data from before the changes conflicting with the changes that you made. Wiping cache then rebooting allows the device to build the cached data the way it needs to incorporate the new changes that you made.
[General Questions and Answers] tsaxda:
I called samsung to ask whether they recommended clearing it & she very sternly said "we are not clearing dalvik". It made me wonder whether she simply didn't know what dalvik is, because she asked how to spell it as though she was looking it up, or if there was some other reason.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
The option to wipe dalvik cache is not an option in stock recovery or any other stock or non-root, non-custom option. It is typically only an option if you have a custom recovery such as TWRP.

Only a developer or someone that is familiar with root and custom android software would be familiar with wiping dalvik cache. A standard employee of a manufacturer or customer support agent would not be familiar with wiping dalvik cache.

[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] Soapy!:
Currently, I'm running MSM Xtended. Unfortunately, I'm unable to root my device. I have tried following the instructions in the MSM thread on how to obtain root, but the command isn't recognized in fastboot. I assume it's because I flashed the latest version of the global rom before flashing MSM. I'm guessing the latest global version upgraded my BL to a version that doesn't support "fastboot boot". Is there another way to go about this without having to wipe my phone and flashing a different global version? Any help is appreciated!
[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] bynarie:
Dont mean to treat you noobish here, but is the bootloader unlocked? I have never heard of fastboot "boot" not being available.. Are you in the bootloader when trying to run this? Does fastboot devices show anything. I'm still newish to the whole fastbootd thing (fastboot reboot fastboot) but when I am running fastboot boot I do it from the bootloader, not fastbootd.
[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] Soapy!:
Apologies for the late response, so I'm a dummy that likes to skim. I figured it out after work. Fastbootd does not support "fastboot boot", but regular fastboot does.

Dear Noobs,

Before asking the meaning of:

Please remember the Wiki is your friend and will not harm your health... So... Please

DO

read it.

Simply click HERE and read.

Cheers.

thanks to make it clear...:)

sinced i'm not heavy good on english:D, i can't explain at the moments
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] zocster:
It is

actually being made clear here, we are trying to get this on sticky, any other ideas you have please post on that thread. Not many noobs know how to go to wiki to look figured a sticky would help with FAQ
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Kevlar-Source:
Gosh!

Noobs are not like recently married girls who claim not to know how to dust the house o use the vacuum cleaner...

Is there anything to know about how to read the wiki?

Well, if you believe that a sticky can help, go for it... Didn't mean to bother anyone... Just to be helpfull...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ai6908:
Good efforts, but do remember, we were all noobs once! I hope people start reading instead of typing!:D
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ALoGeNo:
Well, im n00b xD

When the wiki say that:

¤ Requires the installation of an original carrier ROM before installation in order to avoid system freeze and spontaneous Hard Resets

I think, how is that?, i must extract OS.nb from the RUU_Hermes_CINGULAR_WWE_3.62.502.3_6275_1.54.07.00_108_UOOS_SVN05_Ship.exe by example, and flash it? (thats it?)

Thanks
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ai6908:
Pretty much. You need to extract OS and ExtROM, and recompile them to nbh. Do not reflash radio all the time! Its dangerous!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ErMeglio:
Can someone explain the last point better?

I mean, is it really required? Why?

I'm simply having a working phone and never had to mess with the original rom...I've always flashed many Schap's roms without any SPONTANEOUS HARD reset ???:confused: Why should they happen?

[p.s.] I just wanna learn...this story is sooo strange to me:(
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] zocster:
I can't recall Schaps ROM being big storage and compressed? :confused: you only need to do these steps when you are flashing a big storage and/or compressed roms.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ALoGeNo:
Thank you very much ai6908, but later xD my radio is downgraded ;)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ErMeglio:
Hhm...I thought they have big storage even if I never checked/used...ok, actually I never used to know what it means!

I've just checked the wiki and found only a sentence saying it's a "merged" storage+extrom space...

Anyway, just to be sure, I'll flash a non-ANYTHING:D:D:D

Wish I didn't appear sooo noob, but these are the facts...:o
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] zocster:
You can find it in settings/system/memory ... if it is big storage will have over 70 mb on the left side being ROM
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ErMeglio:
Mmh, I'm almost sure I didn't have so much storage!

Anyway,

I've just noticed the ROM I wanted and actually flashed is the one in your signature :p

Seems great, cool and complete enough but...

I'm getting strange glitches in the main screen...it needs ages to reload the screen image there...

This happens also if I open the start menu and close it! Its image stays there for 3-5 seconds :eek:

I've tried many settings of sys cache, glitch cache, filter cache etc (mainly around the advised ones) but I had no luck of getting it faster:(

I think I'll look for other substitute of Schap's....even if it's surely a hard seek!

Sorry for the OT, and thanks for the help zocster!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] veyka:
This might be because of HTC home, try CRC's, look in my FAQ, and in the sticky!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] zocster:
hmm try flashing a shipped rom first, i don't experience this, this rom is damn fast as it is without tweaking.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] abusalza:
the compressed rom has started from me or dvha on pdaviet, so i think for an old build just normal rom;)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] erwinpiero:
Hello, it's so clear to me then, all those definitions, i'm sorry, i had seen ROM named "Naked" in CRC's post, what then it does means?

Thank You :D
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] zocster:
naked is clean ROM, but it will still have extended ROM :D at least that's what I think it is.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] erwinpiero:
Ow if it is so, then it would be Non-RBS then, didn't know wether it's compressed or not.

Okay, like usually thank you Mas :)

[Samsung Galaxy S20 FE Questions & Answers] gerhardo:
European versions of Exynos 4G Samsung Galaxy S20 (both FE SM-G780F and the standard SM-G980F)

Does these phones support Dual GPS with L5/E5+ signals?

Is the GPS quality good, both accuracy reported by the phone reports and compared to other GPSes?

The following post points to an app that will show if L5 is available:

https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s20/help/send-screenshot-gpstest-t4074421

The regular S20 has a much more attractive price now, but I like the flat screen and plastic in the FE. The European S20 FE 5G has SD865 with slightly better battery and performance but it is not worth over $100 extra for me.
