It's good to hear that restoring a backup doesn't seem to cause any side effects.

The sot that I usually get is pretty much always less than 4 hours, but if draining 90% of the battery is normal in les than 24hrs then I might be the one who's expecting too much out of this battery? IDK, every single comment I saw on pixel AOSP roms like this pointed out the great battery life, but for me is just decent...

One thing that I've noticed too is that the SOT counter doesnt really show the actual time screen has been on, as I checked it twice like one hour apart and the count was the same, so I'm not very trusty on that.

Does this work without any issues on Willow ?

Can I flash this rom with Xiaomitool v2 ?
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] electricaluser:
Totally fine, I'm using it on a Willow and I have no problems.
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Jatin Verma x821:
Decent is good. I don't expect much out of my battery, and never ever monitor it. If you just don't care about it, you'll magically start to get better battery backup.
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] LRulls:
Compared to approximately 3 roms, this is the one with the best battery performance, both offline and in intensive use. If you have a problem with your battery, I would recommend changing it.

I work with the phone having a delivery application always active in the background and the map gps, with approximately 80% of the active screen and I can use the phone for more than 7 hours, in the same way you can go back to the stock rom and compare software and battery performance and get your own feedback

Have the bugs reported before been ironed out in the latest release?
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] vlado68:
Hello. I have been using this rom on my ginkgo for several months. Never had an issue. I am on the latest update. I was charging from 20 to 100% in less than an hour. After latest update the phone is taking ages to charge from 17 - 100% it says 16 hours, I have never seen that.

Do any of you know what's happening? I did flash a kernel recommended in the oficial PixelOS telegram channel under the very latest update. Could this be the problem?

Thanks for any help.
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] LRulls:
With the ampere application, try other connections and with other chargers and cables and record the charges of each one, you will see if it is not something physical, but saying that you have made a change on your own in the kernel may be more than enough to think that this It is the problem that is affecting you.
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] vlado68:
Thanks for your answer. I found it was a faulty cable. Bought a new one and all is back to normal.

You were right in the first place.

Hi, everyone!

I'm loving this ROM so much but I'm having one weird issue, I looked at the whole thread and spend a good hour or two looking on other forums and found nothing about it, so here I am to ask if someone else have had or has this issue and if so, how they solved it.

In the Facebook app almost everything works right except for the marketplace section, there's no text showing (see attached images)

Anyone else have this issue?

I've already erased data and cache, reinstalled the app, changed region, language, dark mode on and off, and tried older versions of the app without success.

Not sure what's causing this but it is also present on other places like settings.
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] LRulls:
It may have to do with the way they installed the rom, because that problem doesn't happen to me
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Jatin Verma x821:
hmm i wonder what way can cause this, because imo way of installing rom shouldn't cause this problem. afterall it's just flashing a zip file, and I've seen many people having fb marketplace issue.
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] JJBitter:
I saw your comment and made a dirty flash just wiping dalvik and cache and the problem persisted, then I made a clean install and it keeps looking the same
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Redmit8:
Buenas noches la rom está bien en general solo hay un pequeño problema con facebook al tratar de entrar en marketplace no muestra la información de esta tienda que viene integrado en facebook queria saber quién más tiene ese problema es el rom de Ginko del redmi note 8 vs 13 de Android y el mod Game que no está en ella del resto súper bn.

That's not ROMs problem. The site you were using need to look into that, nothing you can do about that as a user.

[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] OvaisAlam:
thank you, I have used the latest TWRP version available for Redmi Note 8.

I have some questions and would appreciate if anyone can answer them. I am using thirteen version.

1) In the notifications, I can't see any option to change the state of the notification. For example, I can't change any notification from Silent to any other state (I was able to do that in Android 11)

2) How to remove the search box from the home screen.

3) In settings screen, the color is way too dull and I can't find an option to change it.
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Jatin Verma x821:
1. Just long press it and tap on settings icon. It'll take you to notification category for that app while also highlighting the current notification, just select that and from there you'll be able to select default or silent state of the notification.

2. It's not possible with the stock launcher. You can use a custom launcher.

3. Only color related options are:

a. In display settings, that allows you to select boosted or natural.

b. KCAL in mi extras.
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] EthanWaber21:
Hello. I fround a few bugs it's not major bugs, but sometimes it's annoying :D

1. It's Settings icon in Pixel launcher doesn't changes is you change the system color. In nother launchers it works good.

For example: My system color is red and in all apps Settings icon shows as purple, but in opened apps it shows correct red color of Settings icon.

2. Wallpaper and styles doesn't showing actual installed wallpaper atm and here some bug with lastest wallpapers

I've tried to make another reinstall but it's probably not about bad flash ROM

But it's really cool ROM with great perfomance. Thanks for doing it for us.

Great rom. The only problem I am facing is that the NFC is turning itself off at most reboots and always have to go to the setting before paying.
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] kneider13:
edit: Solved, I needed to see the APN settings in a mobile that works with mobile data, since the ones that the ROM brings by default are wrong.

Format data (don't wipe it, format it). You're going to lose everything on the internal storage by doing so.
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] TheUnknownThing:
Just sharing my thoughts on this ROM (PixelOS) -- a mini-review. :)

This has to be the most stable and performant ROM for "ginkgo" by FAR!

I've tested countless ROMs for our beloved RN8 and out of all of them, this is the fastest and most stable by a longshot.

MIUI Camera is responsive, calls work well, wear OS + phone integration is stable, Android Auto works, and the list goes on.

I have tested this with many background processes running simultaneously (e.g. Life360, KDEConnect, Termux, YT Music, etc) and the phone won't skip a beat!

Not to put shade on other ROMs, but if you are after stability and performance, you can't go wrong with this one.

Cheers to all ROM developers out there as your hard work is very appreciated. This is the power of Android! :cool:

The A14. I've done everything right, first by flashing the firmware through adb sideload, and then, the rom through adb sideload, but after that, an error message shows, i think there is a corrupted file in the rom. I'm gonna flash again so that i can post the exact error message that shows
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Punker71:
On the Pixelos website, on our device page, find the “instructions” section. There, open the link to TVRP. Download it and install it. Then just flash the ROM. If the internal memory is not available, put the ROM on the external memory. Format data.

Hello, I have a Redmi Note 8T phone with MIUI 12.5. The phone has 32GB of internal storage and it's always running out of space, even if I have few apps installed and it's really annoying because it's impossible to use it normally.

I remember that few years ago I used to have external microSD cards which allowed me to format them and use them as if it was part of the internal storage. I know that a while ago they stopped allowing to use them that way because they said that it would slow down the apps and stuff like that. But I'm wondering if this ROM allows to do that. I don't know if that's even possible or that option is just gone at all and not compatible with any ROM for this model or other MIUI phones or if there is the chance that tweaking things within the ROMs they allow to do that.

If somebody is using this ROM or knows about any option (or an alternative way to be able to use the microSD card to store the apps and data. I alreayd have it set up to store pictures and videos, but I think that is not even working because things are still stored on the Gallery app. But I would like, if possible, to also install other apps in there.

Thank you!

I had the same problem! You have to reinstall the rom and when the google setup asks you if you want to restore your backup, you untick the option that says 'settings' or just to be safe, untick all options. After that it worked for me! Hope this helps.

- Flash OrangeFox Recovery

- Do an factory reset wipe (the one that you need to type yes and press enter)

- Reboot into bootloader/fastboot mode

- Flash FbeV2 TWRP that is on first post

- Reboot into TWRP

- Do an factory reset wipe again (the one that makes you to type yes, press enter)

- Flash the ROM

- Reboot

It works for any FbeV2 ROM when coming from another ROM

I hope this do help you

Alternate way in case it doesn't work

- After flashing ROM, flash OrangeFox recovery and do factory reset wipe

- Reboot
