I love the whole goofle experience that is why i prefer custom roms over miui
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] kd276:
Indeed, MIUI is just pretty graphic, like a colorfull toy for kids, do not need this heavy and invasive interface filled with useless bloatware. Prefer perfomance over aestetics.

My 12 year Nexus 4 with 2017 Slimrom still working today, battery included, having a light os installed matter a lot to preserve the device for decades to come (changed it with a X3 Pro only because the 12 gig internal storage and 2 gb ddr2 were very limited for today standards). :D
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] popej:
I don't like gapps either. I'm currently on gapps version with many google apps disabled. My question is weather I get any problems when flashing vanilla version over gaps version.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] kd276:
Gapps version is pratically vanilla + gapps already merged by ArrowOS devs, vanilla make sense only if you want to install custom apps yourself and not the whole packages.

Gapps also have core only version with playstore and google framework, you can try this and then manually install more gapps based on what you need via playstore or via apk, but i never did this since i do not want playstore, so installing apps for me is only fleasible via apk (apkmirror is a good source).
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] K001droid:
I already have private custom vendor builds going since the moment I got the device but I don't plan to release it for official variant, I may release it as community edition later on.. for now Everything is on a bit of hold because of https://t.me/arrowoschat/269932
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] Raci Kumar Sinha:
What do you even fo with ur phone, is it just for calling, do you not play games or anything 😂, lol imagine using nexus 4 in 2021 😂😂😂
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] Ponder Stibbons:
Hello

Yesterday I have installed successfully ArrowOS 11 "Arrow-v11.0-vayu-OFFICIAL-20210709-VANILLA.zip" and it works like a charm. But, on the other hand, I have a problem with it.

At first I have removed the two packages below.

adb shell pm uninstall --user 0 com.simplemobiletools.calendar.pro
adb shell pm uninstall --user 0 com.simplemobiletools.gallery.pro

Then I have installed F-Droid app store. With F-Droid I am able to install other packages exept the two packages up. The error is:

Fehler beim Installieren von Simple Calendar Pro ...
Installation aufgrund eines unbekannten Fehlers fehlgeschlagen.

Error installing Simple Calendar Pro ...
Installation failed due to an unknown error.

How can I fix this error? Smartphone isn't rootet yet.

Thanks in advance

Ponder
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] k3lcior:
So why did you remove the simple calendar package, since now you are trying to install exactly same app?

Probably there are some app leftovers which are preventing you from installing now.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] Lu5ck:
It is important to note that this rom is not as stable and reliable as what you think, or as what they claim to focus on

Even if the system allow you to uninstall doesn't mean it won't break the system.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] Ponder Stibbons:
Unfortunately, I did not think carefully.

After a factory reset and after some time of research and trial and error, I find that the packages do not have the correct signature for F-Droid and thus I cannot update them. There is already an update for the com.simplemobiletools.calendar.pro package, which I cannot install.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] Ponder Stibbons:
Thanks, I will keep that in mind.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] Sachin805:
Gaming mode?
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] Ponder Stibbons:
After some time of researching and learning adb commands, I found out that it is not enough to fire a command a la "adb shell pm uninstall --user 0 com..." and then reinstall the app via the F-Droid Store. The app is still present in the directory "/system/app/SimpleGallery/SimpleGallery.apk". After deleting the directory and after restarting the smartphone I am able to install the app via F-Droid Store. Now everything fits! :)

Have a nice weekend

i cant fix widevine L3, magisk its hide and app, hide google play, works all apps bank/mcdonalds, SFN pass. i flashed again rom&magisk but nothing works for fix it
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] kd276:
Always use my phone, as a phone lol. To be specific, as a main mobile phone since i do not have a home phone and also as a second "pc". Also as a camera for video and photo. The price was very good for what it offer. :D

The only thing i dislike but i found this missing feature too late, is that i can't use a usb-c to hdmi cable to connect the device to my monitor and use the phone as a notebook.

About games, i'm not really able to play my preferred mmos in such a small screen and use fingers to move stuff, prefer my WASD + mouse. :D

Nexus 4 is still a small beast, but outdated, i use it as a backup for the Poco, hopefully even my new Poco will last for 10 years or more (yes, i'm not a person who change hardware so often). :)
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] Raci Kumar Sinha:
Then why did you bought this phone, if your priority was camera an daily stuff, there are lot of great options which are better than this like the izoo z3 5g, redmi note 10 pro max, poco x3 pro is a gaming phone, since it has sd 860 but very bad camera and display.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] kd276:
At beginning i pointed the Redmi 10 Lite, but later i bought the Poco because of the price, 180 eur shipping included, the lowest price i found in my country based on hardware/performance/cost compromise. Consider that i bought my first phone, N4 for 320 eur in 2012.

I read some reviews before buy this device, camera is ok, 10 times better than my N4, it is very detailed, i like everything about this device minus the fact that i can't connect it to my monitor. My fault to not check this feature before, but OTG via ethernet RJ45 work at least. :D
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] Raci Kumar Sinha:
Well i bought it for gaming, i have a gaming channel on YouTube, i previously had samsung galaxy m21, recording the game on that phone was a pain, but now i can record in max quality without any issues
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] 0b4:
Personally I want very smooth user interface thats why I chose this phone. Yes, for the SD860 and the 120Hz display and the UFS 3.1 storage. And I don't game on my phone. I don't get this PUBG hype. Everyone is playing PUBG on phones like as if it were mandatory. Not every phone user is a gamer who need flagship specs.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] Raci Kumar Sinha:
I don't play pubg btw i play call of duty mobile, but i agree to ur point 👍
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] Jaftdroid:
Wherever the version you use, there is a small mess with alarm ringtones. Hassium and Helium are the same ringtone. Both are Hassium since I like Helium from LoS builds. Platinum is duplicated.

I'm not sure if this is happening with phone/notification ringtones too.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] Vibhash Mishra:
I am having issues with the screen.. It starts flashing when the brightness of the screen changes
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] lunafag:
When outside it's trying to reduce contrast, perhaps to increase readability, even if automatic brightness is disabled. Easily verified by covering the sensor. Is there some option to disable this that I'm missing?
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] leocreu:
Great ROM, really smooth... Turbo charge is not working, though. It's taking several hours for a full charge. Anyone else has this issue?
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] k3lcior:
Working fine here.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] leocreu:
Weird... Maybe I should reinstall? Check:
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] 0b4:
Just measure charging time. This data with the watt value is not accurate.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] leocreu:
Alright bro. I will keep an eye on it!
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] ianseer:
yes, i think i have the same problem... turbo charge mostly not working
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] 0b4:
See post #631
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] leocreu:
devs should fix that soon enough, I flashed the rom yesterday but this seems to be the only bug found. Other than that I feel like the charging is not as fast as in MIUI but that must be my imagination. I will check the SOT and if it is alike MIUI SOT it will be my main ROM for vayu.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] 0b4:
Charging speed feels just as fast as in MIUI for me, but I haven't measured it. But its certain that the watt values it showing are far from accurate. SOT is quite decent for me. 7-9 hours.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] therealkurison:
maybe you set it on adaptive? settings > display > colors
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] leocreu:
I'm on 70% at 2 hours SOT, I think I did something wrong when I flashed the ROM...
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] lunafag:
It was set to natural. Happens with all 4 settings. Also tried disabling dark mode, styles, nothing changed. Works with flashlight too. Best visible on homescreen with the default wallpaper. I'll try with other ROMs tomorrow.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] Antonio7489:
I flashed latest Arrow OS and the os os using too much RAM 5.5G avabile to 1.6 even more than MIUI ￼￼
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] k3lcior:
The more RAM is used the better, you're welcome.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] ianseer:
I noticed when i plug while using it, it charged very slowly... but when I put it (screen off) it charged faster a lot. not fast as I expected but faster... but, I might be wrong. other than that, all nice.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] Antonio7489:
Not really my friend
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] k3lcior:
Yes really. And it's one of many reasons why people are mass ditching MIUI which is agressively killing apps in background to preserve RAM for no reason.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] aasoror:
An excellent ROM, kudos to the maintainer and everyone who contributed.

One minor thing, did anyone notice the apps (bottom row) on the home screen resets at each reboot (stock launcher)? I initially thought it might be related to enabling "app suggestions" (on the home screen and app drawer) but confirmed it happens even when both options are disabled.

Anything I might have missed?

TIA
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] Moe_KH:
Generally, the more RAM your phone has, the larger the digital countertop you have to work on and the faster your apps will run.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] popej:
OK, so I'm replying to myself ;)

This is what I have done:

* Reboot to TWRP and format data.

* Install ArrowOS Vanilla - it fails because of missing path/partition "system_root".

* Boot ArrowOS recovery from fastboot and install Vanilla.

* Install opengapps pico - it fails in ArrowOS recovery.

* Reboot to recovery (TWRP) from ArrowOS recovery - it booted to system.

* Reboot to TWRP and do factory reset.

* Flash opengapps pico.

* Reboot to system, install Magisk, patch boot.img.

* Reboot to TWRP flash patched boot.img.

* Reboot to system and configure.

Now I have Vanilla with minimum gapps. Initial setup for Google crashes. No other problems noticed yet, Google Play is certified, DRM Info shows Widevine L1.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] Raci Kumar Sinha:
Bro u had to format the data after you install the rom and then reboot to recovery and then format data and then reboot system
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] popej:
Format twice?

Anyway, I followed advice from here: https://xdaforums.com/t/guide-unloc...11-0-rom-and-root-xiaomi-poco-x3-pro.4267623/
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] k3lcior:
From the exact link you posted:

10. Your device should automatically boot into custom recovery. At this point, the microSD will become accessible from recovery or the PC, but the device's internal storage will not be which makes using a microSD card much more imperative for this process since the recovery is in early access development.

a. Go to Wipe –> Format Data, type "yes" to perform data wipe; Back out to the main menu.

b. Go to Install –> Navigate to the TWRP folder on the microSD (via "external_sd").

Select "

Arrow-v11.0-vayu-OFFICIAL-20210424-GAPPS.zip

" and flash the ROM, but do not change any of the checkboxes that show up before doing so.

Format data (not wipe) before rebooting into the new ROM.

NOTE: At most it takes around 1 minute to boot back up.

So, did you follow? Guess not.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] popej:
Right, not exactly followed, because had to switch recoveries in the middle of the process and it didn't go seamlessly. Anyway, the result is OK.

BTW, where were you, when I asked for help, before I started experiments on my own? LOL
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] WalrusAtWar:
Just a quick question, does full phone encryption work on this ROM?
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] kd276:
Hello, today i charge my device, i stopped at 92% because i didn't notice it in time, and in the battery statistic it shows that a full charge cycle have been completed.

This is odd, what's the limit of this device to not go into a full charged cycle? 89%? 90%? Anyone tried a safe %?

Regarding this, is possible for ArrowOs devs to add a build-in option in the next release under battery menù where i can set a customize % that stop automatically the charging ?

Thanks.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] k3lcior:
https://xdaforums.com/t/4267263/post-85119331
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] kd276:
Thanks, then have you idea the range to do a full cycle? 92% is not safe, tested just now, to 80% is safe but i'm wondering if i can go a bit further, like 89% or 90%.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] k3lcior:
It's related to power_supply module so yeah
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] kd276:
Ok thanks, regarding the full cycle issue, just finished some tests and the maximum value is 89%, hit 90% and the device consider the charge a full cycle even if you charge the phone by 1% (example from 89% to 90%).

Is very difficult to stop the charging at 89% without at least a sound notification. >_>
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] pl1992aw:
If you have root with Magisk, there are ways to control the charging.

Read here: https://xdaforums.com/t/4282275/#post-85076733
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] kd276:
I know this app but the user above K3lcior told me that i should not mess with smart or scheduled charging, this is the reason why devs remove this feature.

You know an app that can only notify with a sound when the battery reaches a customized theresold? Tried in various websites with no luck.

This is the final official build which requires pre-installed manufacturer/OEM vendor and ODM partitions. OTA updates from this build will be blocked as a safeguard

After a while, when most who have transitioned to this update, I will release the official build with custom vendor and ODM partitions (compiled from source)

If you want to be the early adopters, you can flash the "community" variant from the website.

@kubersharma Transitioning from current build to OSS vendor will require a clean flash?
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] Raci Kumar Sinha:
I just updated via OTA updater, it works.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] kd276:
Thanks fo the update. Update succesfully via OTA/TWRP.

So from the next update the custom vendor will be included in the rom, i understand it right?

The firmware is unrelated and should be updated separately? Actually i have 12.5.1.0 (RJUEUXM), the last one.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] pl1992aw:
AccuBattery
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] kd276:
Oh, this is quite good, good find, will try it. Thanks mate.

Two questions:

- Btw, you know why my device sometimes have notification with a delay? Expecially sms and the alarms, dialer and incoming calls works properly.

Maybe i should disable battery optimization since it freeze some apps in background? Or i need to give access to the messenger and clock unlimited data? This happens only with these two apps.

- There is also a way to reduce the display time of silenced notifications? I can disable them entirely but i prefer to reduce the timer.

For example when i use an app like root explorer a message that i'm using root permissions appear in a white window box at the bottom, and it go away only after 30 seconds, very annoying.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] pl1992aw:
Maybe you can try alter some settings in the battery section.

Turn off Battery Saver

Turn off Battery Manager

Thermal Profiles change to according profiles if exist

Turn off Do not disturb mode

Personally did not miss the alarm clock in GApps version, which uses Google clock and messenger for SMS.

That whitish window at the bottom is caused by Magisk if you are using Magisk.

Go into Magisk, press the shield icon at the bottom, choose the app you don't want to show and turn off the notification of it.

Not sure what setting to alter to reduce the timer. Personally disable it.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] kd276:
I did all this, i'm testing now, but about thermal profiles they are all settled in default mode, dunno what's the correct profile for every file.

I think that the issue can be caused by battery manager since is clearly say that is limit apps not often used.

Yes, i can disable it via magisk, it have two options, "toast" and "disable", guess is the only way.

ps: Didn't notice before but magisk app appear to be not installed (N/D), need to install it too or don't matter?

Anyway, thank you for all the info, very usefull.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] popej:
OTA actually is a full ROM, it overwrites boot.img effectively removing Magisk. You have to root your phone again.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] kd276:
Are you sure? Anyway reinstalled and check with root checker and it said my device is rooted as expected like before.

Seems an option that only devs can add, regarding the display time of silenced notifications.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] popej:
Just have noticed, that latest version of ROM has almost no CPU scaling. Minimal frequency for little CPU is about 1700MHz, for big is 1400Mhz. I have returned to version 20210709 and there is OK, little CPU goes down to 576MHz, big to 710/825Mhz.

I can't find any reason for these settings, looks like a bug, which will drain battery.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] kd276:
Seems the case, but i don't know if it was bugged before or now since the frequencies are within the correct range.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] 0b4:
Same here. I don't know how it will affect battery life but I think it won't be useful for battery life.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] Jaftdroid:
Any way to disable battery estimations on QS and show percentage only when you drop them down? AKA hidden.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] popej:
Minimum CPU frequency can't be corrected with kernel manager, since table of available frequencies is truncated and lower values are missing. Weird, previous version had table with frequencies as low as 300MHz for little CPU, while using limit 576Mhz.

@Jaftdroid: Latest ROM doesn't show estimation, only % of battery.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] 0b4:
That's weird. I already noticing slightly worse barry life. In 10 minutes of light usage battery already dropped by 3 percent. Let's hope dev are watching the thread and can say something about it.

If I want to go back to previous version, can I flash it without any data loss? Can I dirty flash? What should I or have to wipe after install?
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] popej:
I dirty flashed previous version without problems, I'm using TWRP by Nebrassy. I only whipped dalvik and cache after flashing.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] Lu5ck:
Fortunately, I didn't do the OTA. I already know from experience on last OTA that arrowOS is really bad when come to it. Evidently, now is kernel bug. At this moment, I wouldn't recommend arrowOS as reliable daily driver, unless you intent to not OTA forever. :D

when u flash a rom, it will look through its addon script folder and perform these script

the magisk script is in such folder and will automatically reinstall magisk after the rom is flashed
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] pl1992aw:
The app Magisk app is installed.

Ultima shows latest stable update by the author on internet. Turn on internet and open Magisk app, so Ultima will show something. (N/D) is probably abbreviation of No Data.

Installata is installed.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] kd276:
Thanks.

Guess i have to revert to the previous version since this one appears to be bugged. Will do via TWRP and wipe cache+dalvik classic method.

I see, then is better to flash via twrp, anyone tried flashing the last version via twrp and not ota and see if it solve the scaling issue? Just wondering if is a permanent bug or OTA bug. Anyway i rollback too.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] 0b4:
OTA update is booting into twrp to install the update also, so there is no difference between the two methods.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] kd276:
I see, then is a bug on the rom itself no matter the method, well, no problem.

Maybe the fact i have delay on notifications can be also related to this since i didn't have this ussue before, now that i think about it.

Confirm, the scaling with the previous version working properly.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] 0b4:
I can confirm too. Dirty flashing back the previous version in TWRP and wipeing cache and dalvik, everything works fine. Scaling issue is gone too.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] Jaftdroid:
Hello,

Updated to the last version and still seeing battery estimates when I drop down QS (eg: 1d & 7h).
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] kd276:
This work as intended, but there is no way to change this when you swipe down the quick settings, there is not an option.

Last version of this rom is bugged, see above, it drain your battery since scaling governor do not work properly, you should downgrade to the previous one till the devs fix it.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] Jaftdroid:
Thanks for warning me man. I'll do it. I'm anyways thinking to go back to the stock MIUI (or xiaomi.eu's MIUI) just for a while.

Thanks again.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] kd276:
MIUI is too heavy and fancy for me, will never come back from Android stock, prefer simplicity and performance, but xiaomi.eu build is indeed a good compromise if you like MIUI and is more customizable.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] kd276:
edit

After several test, the issue of not receiving notifications while the screen is off is that the system appear to freeze the stock apps. It go into a hybernation/doze mode that completely kill the apps notifications. Notifications of sms arrive istantly if the screen is not off.

The laughtable thing is that the app messages have the battery optimization/doze greyed out, i can't change it because there are no options to do so.

Wondering if the zipped magisk module to disable the doze at every boot i found here in the Oneplus forum can be of some help, but i read it can case boot loop. >_>
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] punpun1:
Hello,

I am running latest official ArrowOS (2021-07-23) and encountered a very specific problem regarding games that have LAN server hosting.

For example in Minecraft, I can join LAN worlds hosted on other devices just fine. However if I open the world myself, I can't join from other devices, because it is not visible.

This worked on MIUI just fine, and I can confirm it is not an issue regarding my network, because I can host on other devices.

I know this is not a significant problem and it doesn't impact all (if any) ArrowOS users, but I would be grateful if you could take a look.

Here's the logcat (I specifically ran Minecraft and entered a world, which should have started LAN hosting):

logcat_07-24-2021_14-41-38.txt

drive.google.com

EDIT:

I am also running Magisk with no modules, but I don't think it would impact outbound network connections.

EDIT 2:

I have switched back to previous official because of CPU scaling issue, but this LAN connection issue is still present.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] dantevn:
installing the latest update (through system notification) unrooted my phone. What the ****?
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] pl1992aw:
This is normal behavior.

Update will flash a new boot image into the system, so patch it again.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] popej:
There is no Magisk script in /system/addon.d/. Probably it is not supported, when installing Magisk by patching boot.img.
