Has anyone had problems using headphones via USB-C? In my case, when I connect them, the phone crashes and I have to force restart, sometimes just makes a restart of the UI but nothing works. After rebooting I can use them normally.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Clem29:
I tried this, with two different adaptors (i lost the original one).

I used a genuine adaptor that came with a google pixel 2, and a cheap oone i bought from china (this one has both a port for charging and an audio jack). Neither of them caused the phone to crash.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] mijiko200:
I have been testing and it only crashes when plugging in headphones during a call, the headphones are the Google Pixel USB-C earbuds.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] dietrix1612:
Yep, I have the same issue when receiving a call
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] razenxd:
Since the update the GPAY was broken, so today I decided to re-root.

I had already Magisk app 25.2 intalled and hidden, So I Cleared most google apps cache and flashed Magisk.zip.

On first boot I had no root, restarted to recovery flashed .zip again booted again and I had root.

All my modules before update were still there and active including SafetyNetFix.

Tried to add a new card to google pay and I got a message that my device is rooted and that I can't add a Card.

Wallet Gives no message that device is incompatible until I try to make a payment, it gets declined and tells me that device is incompatible.

I cleared again cache of google apps and rebooted.

Magisk said that I lost root.

Since then I have flashed more than 10 times the Magisk.zip but on boot I have no Root.

I also tried to uninstall my previous magisk app install a fresh downloaded one and change the update channel.

Neither got me to Rooted status.

Any idea why this is happening?

On First release I was able to root just by installing app and flashing the .zip.

Thanks
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] :
Try extracting boot.img from the rom.zip, patch it in Magisk Manager app, then flash the patched boot in fastboot:

fastboot flash boot /path/to/magisk_patched.img

Rooting your phone is still possible — and fun — these days. Here's how to do it on your Android device.

For banking/payment apps to work, you may need to add them to Magisk DenyList (under magisk settings > Configure DenyList), leave Enforce DenyList turned OFF, Zygisk turned ON, and install Shamiko in Magisk Modules.

Hi everyone..

4G+ does not work, although everything is fine on other phones :(
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Catfriend1:
I have 4g+ available (DT Carrier)
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] VladKo08:
I mean that LTE carrier frequency aggregation (LTE-A) does not work for me. My operator uses frequencies 1800+2600, on the Redmi note 9 Pro through the netmonster app it shows 1800+2600, but on the Mi 8 only one of them is used, either 2600 or 1800. Maybe this can be fixed somehow?

Unfortunately with this last build i'm having a lot of issues so if it's the last update i just wipe everything and rollback to the last PE12+

Hello. I see too. In any case, one build lasts an average of 1 hour and 40 minutes, which means you have to wait 3-4 days (estimate around next weekend could be a dipper) before it's your turn. in the past, the server ran multiple builds at once, now only one.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Clem29:
Hi, I've just built it from sources (following the PE build guide) and i flashed on my phone.

I've no experience nor i know what i'm actually doing. it boots and works, but i don't know if @GiaSen does some specific things or whatever. if you want to (and if it's allowed) i can upload it.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] GiaSen:
it is allowed, but please advertise that's an UNOFFICIAL build

btw I don't do any modification, everything is open source as you downloaded
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Clem29:
Can i post a link right here on this thread?

I built it for myself, and i don't want to get in any trouble whatsoever (now i can see how frustrating it may be to build a rom, i spent more than a day, and i had to redownload sources a couple of times due to unstable network, and i couldn't use my computer meanwhile)

P.S. i got various warnings about "unused variables", is that common?
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] GiaSen:
yeah that's common, anyway you can publish without any issue lol, only "legal" requirement is to add link to kernel source if you did any modification to PE one
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Clem29:
Here you are, this is a zip with rom, recovery and Sha256 for the rom.

P.s. i can't build this weekly/nightly/monthly because the linux vm + all the source code eat up about 300gb of space on my ssd. (In order to build this one i had to move all my personal data/music/videos to external hdds/sd card etc. and uninstall every game/program i had. so this is not sustainable for me in a daily workflow).

EDIT: added "p.s." and updated link

Prepare your Safetynet level as "pass / pass" in the Yasnac App. Then clear google play services cache and data via android settings. Force stop. Reboot. If play store tells "certified" , reinstall Google Wallet from scratch. That did solve it for me. (Magisk user)

Where can i download latest PE Recovery? Thanks
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Catfriend1:
Hi,

I've got the problem that sometimes the phone goes to the mi logo bootscreen by itself in the middle of using it , then time passes, no google logo appears, vibrates and the same again and again. I can only boot again successfully holding the keys to enter fastboot and then holding power to reboot.

Any idea why that happens? If hardware would have been then cause, I expected it would never boot again but it does with the given manual intervention. I am experiencing this behaviour on PE since early last year. So nothing which came with the update.

Thanks.

[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] GiaSen:
no idea, but I have many reports that device can't boot or behaves in a strange way

in all ROMs (stock included)
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] nazirite.ninjah:
It may be hardware but you might be ok. I had a similar problem. I was on the final PE12 version for a while without issue and then my phone started to behave strangely. Specifically if would randomly turn off, take time to reboot, and when on the power off options would regularly flicker across the screen. I though I maybe had a faulty power button (dirt build up or something) or it might be the battery, which was replaced about 2 years ago. Before going down the hardware route I reflashed MIUI Global using the official MiFlash tool but leaving the bootloader unlocked (my Mi8 originates from China), then flashed the latest PE recovery and PE13. This was about a month ago and its been absolutely fine since. It seemed to me easier to do this first than start trying to diagnose a hardware fault.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] GiaSen:
oh nice never heard of such workaround, I will tell who will encounter the same problem
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] nazirite.ninjah:
No probs. The response was supposed to be to @Catfriend1 but I don't post often so not sure how it works!! Thanks again for keeping the ROM going. I must be getting close to 5 years with this phone now and it's still a rock solid daily driver :)
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Staschme:
I just came back to PE from Evolution X since there is hardly anyone developing Roms for the Dipper any longer, and i needed a refresher in the flashing steps.

I had problems in fastboot, i could check fastbook devices without fail but flashing the recovery in fastboot was a no go !

Just for kicks I updated the twrp recovery which supported A13 and I flashed the PE recovery image using twrp which worked fine .

I then formatted my device as prescribed and put the latest PE Plus rom on my OTG USB and flashed without complications , booted to system after wiping caches and I was back in business.

I no longer use my Dipper , i just keep it around for emergencies and practice flashing whenever something new comes along.

Thanks to the Devs who keep it alive for us old guys who remember the old days of constant flashing and tweaking our systems !
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] GiaSen:

Does anyone else experience big loading times on messenging/social apps?

Reddit/FB/Messenger all of them out of nowhere takes a long time to load, this started on the previous version and nothing changed when i did the last update.

For example, notification comes for a new message on messenger, tapping on it opens the actual conversation and then it takes anywhere from 5 to 30 seconds to load the new message.

Clearing Cache of the app wont help at all.

I'm trying to avoid reflashing since its my daily driver phone and It will take hours to set everything up again.

Any ideas on what the issue is?
