I read this right before I went to bed at 11pm last night. My battery was on 39%.

I've just woken up and the time is 08:45 and my battery is 36%
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] gerwiniwin:
is it just me that gboard is crashing everytime I try to edit the anything except the theme? tho it still runs normally.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] Yoohis:
Hmmm no thats odd, have you tried clearing dalvik and sys cache?
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] gerwiniwin:
yeah i did. maybe it happened as i first flash the vanilla, then decided to dirty flash the gpass version. i'll just clean flash it again then. thanks for the reply.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] Yoohis:
Ah yeah thats probably the reason lol
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] RalphMalph:
Yeah

Thats never a clever idea.

Must be working great after a clean install

Im getting play store force closed after the latest 1.16.20 update, anyone also encounter this?
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] RalphMalph:
Everything working here

Which version are you using? Vanilla or gapps?
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] Gabsome:
Hmm weird, Im using vanilla with nikgapps
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] RalphMalph:
Ah.. I had the same with vanilla and nikgapps..after days of struggling i decided to change to gapps version instead of vanilla.

I dont know the solution. Sorry.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] Gabsome:
Well i just thought of switching version too but i tried reflashing nikgapps and seems it does the trick. No more fc as of now. Thank you for the effort :)
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] RalphMalph:
Great to hear

I tried that also at that time, but didnt work for me. Many FC's on google apps
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] Gabsome:
Been using this rom for just 5 days, and so far after the latest update, this was my first fc on google apps, still testing the rom though

I'm experiencing problem with taking photos

I'm on the latest ArrowOS. Neither GCam nor GCam go works. This issue didn't occur till recently.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] RalphMalph:
No proble here.

Did you clean cache and data for the camera apps?

What version of ArrowOS are you using? I am on gapps-version
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] Yoda007:
Every time i update (via the updater) the phone forgets that i had data enabled on SIM 2. So after reboot data is disabled, and if i enable it it will enable it for SIM 1. Burned a couple tens of MB on a wrong SIM that way :D.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] Arzuto:
can i just flash the rom like normally? (wipe data,dalvic,cache, without wiping internal ) from aosp based rom?

or i should go back to miui first and then install?
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] henryvli:
I'm also on the gapps version. I cleaned the cache and data for the camera app. Seems like only gcam has the problem, no other camera apps has the same issue.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] Revontheus:
Are you using the latest firmware? Kindly read the main post. Flash the latest firmware for your device. (12.0.7).

Revert to stock boot image and DTBO and flash Stormbreaker.

Yes, but flash the latest firmware + Vendor first before flashing the ROM. Also, formatting /data comes AFTER you have flashed firmware, vendor and ROM.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] RalphMalph:
Why dont you switch the sim-cards?
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] RalphMalph:
The gcam that is included in the rom is giving error? Or anothet gcam.

I just tested the Camera Go (included in the rom) and i installed MGC... Both work
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] henryvli:
Found solution! Turns out something wrong with internal SD card. I format it and reset it as internal - problem solved!
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] Arzuto:
what do you mean by yes? so i can just flash arrowos and not flash miui first? i'm on resurrection remix now
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] fdsbox:
I had also. With version 0.06 and 0.07 frozen screen and reboots.

Try 0.05 version. This is stable.

Hey peeps I'm using this ROM and having issues with notifications on WiFi being delayed up to 10-20 minutes or showing up only when I unlock the screen.

This is what I did to troubleshoot but the issue is still present.

Settings > Battery > Battery Manager > Off

Settings > Apps & Notifications > Special App Access > Adaptive Notifications > None

Settings > Apps & Notifications > Special App Access > Battery Optimization > Don't Optimize (For my important apps)

Settings > Display > Lock Screen > Wake Screen For Notifications > Toggle On

Any help would be appreciated.

Running this with MicroG and so far it does seem to work.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] Dixo213:
Just installed the latest and greatest and so far, all is good. I did decide throw the setup to copy my 127 apps from my P4xl. This is not working as expected. it installed 1 app, then get stucked. i reboot, then it installs 2 apps then get stucked. then i reboot... and so one...i think i will cancel this and reinstall apps as i need them but just wanted to report. I will try clearing cache for the playstore app to see if this helps!TX again for this great ROM

[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] jjcdennis:
I've read so much stuff in this thread and others that I'm less than clear about the process of installing. I will unlock on Sunday or Monday when my hours are up. The phone is on Miui 1.2.0.7. Under encrypt phone in settings it says phone is "encrypted (I don't understand the issues with encrypting). I want to install Arrow OS with Gapps, but just want to double check. I have downloaded the rom w/gapps and Orange Fox. So do I still follow the developers installation process as detailed on page 1?

Remove any fingerprint, PIN or password in MIUI

Unlock the bootloader

Transfer ROM to internal storage

Install any suitable recovery

Flash ROM zip file

Do a data wipe in recovery (format data)

Reboot to system, wait and enjoy

No Magisk

I'm looking to make this as simple as possible and work my way slowly up to speed. Been a while.

Help is greatly appreciated.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] Revontheus:
Reboot to Recovery -> Flash the ROM (no need to flash FW + Vendor if you're coming from latest MIUI) -> Format /data -> Reboot to Recovery -> Flash GAPPS & Magisk -> Reboot to System.

You need to flash Magisk in order for you to have access to Magisk Hide.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] jjcdennis:
This is different than whats on page 1. Is it just that the developer hasn't updated the install instructions/ Magisk?
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] Revontheus:
Yes. Most of the issues that arise here come from improper flashing of the ROM and the other pertinent parts.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] jjcdennis:
OK, thanks for your help. Anthing else I should be aware of?
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] Revontheus:
If you ever plan on using a custom kernel (for performance or better battery), ensure that you backup boot.img and DTBO on OFOX. I recommend Stormbreaker Kernel for battery life or the F1xy kernel found here on XDA for performance. Simply flash it after flashing Magisk.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] jjcdennis:
Great, thank you very much.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] iakoboss7:
From what i see here: https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/vendor/surya/

Vendor is actually very old.

Is that indeed the latest? Or we have other source?

Can i make my own vendor files (from latest releases) possibly? And how?
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] Revontheus:
That's not the latest version. The latest version can be found in the same website you posted. It is now called the recovery ROM and comes with the latest FW (12.0.7) and vendor. Get the appropriate one for your device here.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] iakoboss7:
as i understand the process remains the same, right?

1) wipe system, dalvik, cache.

2) flash "recovery rom", rom, gapps, magisk.

3) profit?

any extra steps?

How to install Poco x3 ROM

Clean Flash 1. Flash recovery (latest Ofox 11.0 Beta - "Download" ). This is very important. 2. Reboot to recovery. 3. Dont wipe or format anything.. 4. Flash any custom roms you want. e.g. PE+. etc. Wait until complete. 5. Format data -> Yes. 6. Reboot to System. 7. Complete initial setup. 8...

These are the proper steps. Reboot to Recovery Flash recovery ROM-> Flash the ROM -> Format /data -> Reboot to Recovery -> Flash GAPPS & Magisk -> Reboot to System.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] nemo19:
How do you know that no extracted vendor zips are provided anymore? I couldn't find any information regarding this. And is it necessary to update vendor? I thought it is contained in ArrowOS by now.

Is it really possible when upgrading from one ArrowOS version to another to flash the Recovery ROM (which is a full MIUI ROM afaik) in between without losing/breaking /data? What are the proper steps for an OS update + firmware and vendor upgrade? Do I have to remove pin/pattern or backup and restore anything or is it just:

Boot to recovery

Flash Recovery ROM <- overwrites system, firmware, vendor

Reboot to recovery? Is this required/recommended?

Flash ArrowOS OTA zip <- overwrites system (and vendor? Is it contained in the OS?)

(Optionally) flash kernel and magisk

Wipe cache and dalvik

Reboot to system

Thanks for any input on this.

Can anyone instruct on how have GPay working with this ROM? (best if is possible to do it without root the device)
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] Revontheus:
The latest ArrowOS uses blobs from the latest release of MIUI. Further, the OP specifically states to use the latest firmware. Hence, there is merit to using the latest firmware.

The recovery ROM contains both the firmware and the vendor. Should ArrowOS contain the vendor image, it will overwrite any vendor image and no harm is done.

Also, bear in mind the person asking for instructions was pondering a clean flash. Hence, I gave him the aforementioned instructions.

If you are already on ArrowOS, simply flash the latest firmware + latest nightly. Magisk and the others are optional if you use root.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] janhammer504:
Mission Impossible in all custom ROMs !

1. Safetynet check the bootloader status and will automatically fail if magisk is not installed (Magisk Hide ON must be applied for this) !

2. Furthermore, now you have to install the safetynet-fix module to make your banking apps working !

3. Finally, you must hide Magisk Manager.apk with a random name too (Magisk Settings)
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] ganesh varma:
To everyone, please STOP this misconception about having the need to flash magisk in order to pass safety net. Do read the OP I've clearly mentioned there's no need of a magisk or modules for safety net. Device is certified and passes safety net out of the box without need of any modifications.

By improper usage of magisk and mods you're further complicating and breaking things when they're completely unnecessary which end up causing unrelated issues which you end up calling them rom source bugs ¯\(◉‿◉)/¯

P.S : I'm not against magisk, but when you do prefer using modifications do ask yourself on your needs and if you're able to rectify the issues it might generate. Isolate yourself from magisk or any form of modifications to recheck and confirm the issue before making a bug report.

Please, can you explain how use NFC to pay?

I've tried the ROM (with and without install Magisk). In both cases GPay installs fine, then no issues to add bank cards but when I try to pay in a store, the dataphone refuses to operate. No issues with MIUI.

Thanks

is the safetynet keystore patch already included ???
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] janhammer504:
i think the nfc package used here is a standard one like many other roms around. the package must be nxp/nq compliant !

if you can decompile nfc.apk check if you have this in AndroidManifest.xml

com.nxp.nfc.nq

. The true package that must be used is NqNfcNci not the standard one NfcNci

. the symlinked (proprietary) library must be :

libsn100nfc_nci_jni.so ... and not the standard one libnfc_nci_jni.so

No custom rom uses these files except xiaomi.eu !
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] ganesh varma:
They have been merged recently, but regardless of that i had the changes incorporated into the device tree since beginning to make sure of passing safety net, so there's never a time it failed since release.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] ganesh varma:
I have the non-nfc variant so its impossible for me to test this. Capture and provide with logs while doing the payment or where it refuses via NFC.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] Revontheus:
At this point, you would just have to weigh your needs. If GPay is more important you could always go back to using MIUI.

I have upgraded from 20201227 to 20210122 build (gapps build) and I am having roaming issues with WiFi.

I have multiple access points in my house and the phone is stuck on APs with a very low signal level, although APs with much better signal are nearby. It looks like the roaming behavior was changed, which is not so cool for people with multiple APs. Anyone else observing this?

Oh, and 5 GHz WiFi never connects for me in current build. Very strange.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] ralfhein:
Interesting, I only have a default.prop file but no build.prop file in /system_root when mounted via OrangeFox.

Edit:

Found my mistake now. When mounting system in OrangeFox, it is mounted under /system_root/ (and in there is also a default.prop file). But this is of course not the right file, the one to edit is /system_root/system/build.prop - this makes sense, I only confused "mount system" in OrangeFox to mean "mount /system" while it of course means "mount the whole android system".

So, steps to do this (on non-rooted phone) are:

1. Mount "system" in OrangeFox

2. adb pull /system_root/system/build.prop

3. Edit build.prop and set desired values

4. adb push build.prop /system_root/system/

5. Reboot & enjoy the new volume steps

I guess there must be some way to automate this via Script for every update, we will see. Thanks @miuirred for your help in figuring this out!

Resolved - I figured out how to use Powershell o_O

I'm confused as to how to get the recovery installed for this rom.

It was recommended in a couple forums to use the following recovery version for Arrowos : OrangeFox-R11-Unofficial-Beta-surya-10-01.zip.

I downloaded it, but its a zip file. I extracted the recovery.img from it and flashed it with fastboot. It seemed to flash OK, but then I wasn't able to fastboot boot, as it did not recognize recovery.img, or anything else I typed in the fastboot boot command. I found a command somewhere, fastboot reboot, and this rebooted the phone, but vol+ and power booted into the MIUI recovery. I think that means that the recovery was overwritten.

I'm confused here. How do I flash and boot OrangeFox-R11-Unofficial-Beta-surya-10-01.zip?

Thanks
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] jjcdennis:
Resolved ... flashed as is.

I asked this question on the Orange Fox thread, but it might be more appropriate here, as I am going to flash Arrow momentarily. These two options are checked on the flash screen as options in Orange Fox.

Unmount system before installing a zip, Unmount vendor before installing a zip

Should these be checked prior to flashing, or left unchecked?
