Interpretation of the SELinux rules caused by the error of the third-party ROM caused Riru to not work normally, it is recommended to fix it
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] xiong1069:
When I use your ROM in China, it often appears that WiFi is unable to access the Internet or the network is limited. In fact, mobile phones can access the Internet through WiFi. But the trouble is that it often breaks itself, and there is no WiFi icon on the top. You have to click disconnect to connect it again. It's troublesome to repeat these steps often. I don't know if this ROM often Ping Google or other websites outside China to determine whether the network is connected or not. That's why websites inside China can't be linked to the Internet or have limited access to the Internet.Hope to solve this problem in the next ROM

April update up

Changelog

**Device Specific Changes:**

- Etude kernel: Op.11 No.4

* Linux 4.9.267

* some upstream fixes of cpufreq_stats

* fixed an issue where the frequency of big CPU cores is locked to a maximum of 1286MHz; the frequency of the big cluster is supposed to be restricted under 1286MHz if you battery is at or below 10%, as part of Qualcomm's thermal mitigation, but on previous versions, the frequency restriction was not removed after the phone is charged above 10%

* default to suspend to RAM instead of s2idle (suspend to idle) for around a 25% reduction of idle battery drain

* DO NOT use a third party kernel without proper support for Pixel thermal hal

- Adjusted thermal configs to delay CPU frequency drop and smoothen the thermal throttling curve

- Implemented dynamic thermal profile to work with Pixel thermal engine

* the option is accessible under Settings/Battery/Optimization profiles (in case you are wondering, they had no effect on PE11 before this change)

* thermal configs are dynamically loaded on a per-app basis

* only the gaming profile is available besides the default profile, because other use cases are covered well enough by the default profile

* the gaming profile maintains CPU frequency at even higher temperature compared the default profile

* surface temperatures are measured by an infrared thermometer with matching emissivity to ensure they stay below the allowed maximum values of continuously held electronic devices in IEC 60950-1 (2005) standard

* thermal profile is NOT a replacement for proper cooling. If you want better performance, you should cool your device. - Eliminated all SELinux neverallows and cleaned up unneeded or broken sepolicy

* the latest Riru installation should work now. Note that if you use any mods like this, you will not receive support from me

- Updated telephony blobs from pyxis 21.3.31 to fix random qtibus crashes in the background

- Went back to Secure Element 1.0 to work with the updated blobs

- Stopped enforcing s2idle from userspace init script so the kernel can suspend to RAM for better idle battery drain

- Cleaned some unused config overlays

**ROM update highlights:**

- April security update

- Fixed the issue of weather information not showing up in "At a glance" on the home screen of Pixel Launcher

- Improved Face Unlock. The issue of front camera being occupied should happen less frequently. Let me know if you still encounter it - Devices will only use dark boot animation from now on

- Translation updates

I prefer to avoid that as a lot config would get lost. Sorry :-(.

I've now tried to reset by deleting the hotspot config file in /data/misc/apexdata/com.android.wifi - WifiSoftApConfig.xml

But it did not help. System regenerated the file.

Any other files I can check, delete and regenerate to solve the problem? How to reset the com.android.tethering app?

UPDATE / FIX:

Go to developer settings

There is an option "use hardware acceleration while tethering". Turn it OFF.

Now, my hotspot works fine and the settings UI does no longer crash.

Good morning

I have been following, installing and using for years the roms developed here for our good MI8 which I always use, I have always been satisfied with the good functioning of the mobile phone.

Lately, especially with the latest update, I've noticed a drop in sensitivity in receiving the cellular network signal, probably caused by changes to the carrier's cells, but doing various experiments with different carriers and different cell phones, I've noticed that my MI8 is slightly sensitive and has no signal where other cell phones can make calls.

One question is: here in Italy under the Iliad network which system should you choose in the "preferred network type" menu?

Another question is where do I find the procedure to go back to installing the original xiaomi firmware for my MI8?

Thank you
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] PleikuVN:
I just used this rom, it really makes me satisfied. Just wondering when the ROM experience does not see the system cleaning function like the "clean up" function on MIUI, there is also the function to delete all recently used application tabs to reduce ram consumption, I have to swipe to delete each one one. I just used this rom for the first time, hope you can help me
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] DarthJabba9:
Swipe (right) all the way to the start of the applications, and you should see the button to delete all of them at once.

those miui features are useless and only slow down device, ram cleanup is done automatically, and cache cleaning is never a good option, because it will be created again by apps
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] GiaSen:
in italy you might have issues because 3G antennas are getting shut down everywhere, so you will need a good 4G (I have very bad 4G, I'm in italy as well) or do 2G calls

btw you just need a profile with GSM, LTE and WCDMA (3G, should not work on most operators),

if you want to reinstall MIUI, you can google the procedure, or follow this

- download the rom you want (recovery) https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/miui/dipper/

- flash it in recovery

- format data

- done

I tried a second handsfree with integrated antenna, but same problem... I lose a lot of sensitivity to the GSM signal and the smartphone becomes unusable!!!

I think it must be something at the calibration level for the new antenna to work...

Does anyone have an idea how I can do this????
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] scresan1:
I discovered the mystery and solved it!!!! the new speakerphone/antenna is missing a small clip that electrically connects the metal frame of the smartphone to the speakerphone/antenna, it is very small and thanks to a lens I was able to see it, now everything works perfectly. I attach photos with details that may be useful to someone.

Hello guys!

I've been using Pixel Experience for a long time and I went to install the latest version (13), until now I was using 12.

As I had already installed version 12 with the official recovery, I did the same procedure for the new version. I noticed that in CMD the command "ADB devices" appeared "unauthorized".

I went to "Factory Reset", did all the "wipes", but when I went to "apply update" using "adb sideload" the error "assert failed" "error in /sideload/package.zip (status 1)" appeared. Thinking it could be a file download error, I did it again but the new file still has the same error.

In CMD, ADB and Recovery are detectable, but as a test I tried to install the TWRP recovery and I also receive an error (FAILED (Write to device failed (Unknown error)).

I also tried to install the TWRP and Pixel Experience recovery but I receive an error with the "fastboot flash" command.

I'm panicking here because this is my everyday phone.

I even had to create a temporary account here on the forums because I no longer have access to my email to recover my password.

If anyone can help me I would really appreciate it.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Soldier_1944_temp:
Hey guys!

I already solved the problem. As incredible as it may seem, it was the PC's USB port!

I was using the ports at the bottom and the ADB and FASTBOOT commands didn't work. Just use the top ports and everything was perfect!

Below is the print of the board, for those who want details, this is a Gigabyte Z-690 Gaming-X.

Thank you all!

Thanks for this amazing ROM, it really makes my phone smoother than ever. But I got some UI related problems: 1, the swipe to back gesture sometimes won't work, I must tap back arrow to return; 2, when switching gesture indicator on or off (Settings -> system -> gestures -> system navigation -> gear button -> gesture indicator), or turn screen auto-rotate on or off, my phone will reboot immediately.

After upgrade to the latest 2023/09 PE+ build, I experience hot reboots that were not there before. They occur reproducibly if I share a group of pictures to a chat app repeatedly... on the roundabout 5-15 th share attempt, the share overlay UI where you can choose to which app to share them to, the UI only has white background with grey circles (where normally app text and icon is expected to show up). If I go back, everything normal. If I click one of the grey circles, boom, the screen goes black, comes back to the share UI for a second and then the "G" logo boot screen appears (hot reboot occurs).

After reboot, another problem came up: my mobile data connection is hanging non-established (exclamation mark on icon , reception is given where I am). Attempting to go to SIM card settings below settings/internet freezes the settings UI.

I now shut down manually. Booted. And will see if it happpens again with those unexpected hot reboots on the share UI.

The crashes were not there before the update.
