So far it's been a great rom, good battery, most of the time it feels smooth.

I just found a few bugs:

1. DND doesn't work, once activated it still shows notifications.

2. Sometimes when in landscape mode, I can't find the quick settings, just the notifications.

3. Sometimes the video lags a lot, almost like it plays framr by frame, but a reboot fixes it.

4. Trying to open xiaomi parts fails, it crashes and gets back to Settings. Don't know why, it used to work a few days ago.

Anyway, thanks a lot for all the work put into this rom. Thanks!

Trcamera have some bugs: force close, freeze, black screen. Anyone with bugs?
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Technical:
ROM is working flawlessly without the gms battery consumption of the others bundled with Gapps. I'm using FlameGapps btw. I just noticed that when the charging battery indicator is used, when I disconnect the charger, the icons on status bar remains at the same position, using much more space than they should in normal conditions. It seems the status bar is not refreshing. And as the ROM does not have the UI restart, I can't restore the icons unless I reboot.

Otherwise, many thanks @DarkJoker360

beautyfull ROM , very light e cutomizable, long life to the battery . don't install gapps, they are the Big Brother and slow down the phone. All apps you need are available on the internet. It's time that all sites publish their apk on the own portal, not only on the GPstore. Apk or aab is the same as .exe is for the pc, the smartphone nowadays is a pc. I will want to install all i prefer. Why google must know what i will install ?. All the world must ban the gpstore.

I have two cards in my phone but no signal strength icon. There is a service I can call. Is this a bug or can I restore it somewhere?
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] forart.eu:
Well, not exactly: many Android apps needs Google services to work.

If you're "susceptible" to the privacy theme, you have to choose MicroG project path (or their LineageOS for microG builds) or switch to a privacy-oriented distro (like \e\ for example).
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Jarod5001:
I have installed the latest rom 2 days ago. It's nice, fast.

I am trying to get network monitor to the left since it disappeares when the right side of the status bar is full.

Another thing I faced is that after logging in with Google it used to restore installed apps but with crdroid it didn't so I had to reinstall everything by hand. Titanium backup didn't work 😢
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] rgallai:
Doesn't that rely on the kind of GApps you use? I've tried GApps versions in the past which didn't support the initial restoring procedure.
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Jarod5001:
May be, I followed the link in the first thread, and chose core. It's not a big deal but it would have been easier. But having titanium backups that I couldn't restore. It's just stuck, I looked what were the possible causes, but didn't find any good solution. I will try later.

Besides, I have found an issue :

* open chrome or any chrome based browser

* tap on menu

* tap "add to home screen"

* Go to the home screen and try to remove that link > crdroid home crashes, and I still can't get remove the link

Camera quality is very poor 😢. I've tried Google camera without improvement.
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] SaidJan:
Try this apk

on mine it worked nice. You should change some settings to increase the quality.
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Jarod5001:
Thanks. I've installed it but I don't know what settings should be changed, or should I use a config file.

Besides, I installed ANXCamera, applied the 48MP fix and I got a 2.1 Mp photo when using the 48MP 🤔. The portrait mode is not working (there is a fix for A11 but not A12).

I also installed trcamera, seems good but needs some tweaking. I tried others, half of them crashed before launching.

Yeah but at least to me I can only use the main back camera and the front one.

By the way, does the OTG functionallity work for all of you?

To me it allows to connect pendrives to the smartphone but if I plug a gamepad the phone doesn't power it.

Even if I use an external source to power the gamepad and only connect v+,v- and GND there is still no communication.

v8.5 has smart charging?
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] AA0_o:
It's working fine for me (CRDroid 8.5, ginkgo).

If the ROM's recommended firmware version has changed since CRDroid 8.3 then I haven't updated my device yet.

With the fastcharger the phone is pulling almost 2 amps, so I guess it has.
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] American_Jesus:
Smart charging isn't the same as fast charge, different things.

Understood.

I did not find any setting to configure when to start or stop charging.

But I noticed that near 89% the charging current is reduced from 2A to nearly 1.2A and keeps decreasing as the phone charges (idk if it's standard but it's a nice feature), but by your description it isn't smart charging.

After 8.5 update, miui camera is back. Using it for about 10 days. The image quality is a bit better and especially there is no more distortion compared to the built-in app. It seems xiaomi is making this on purpose. Another thing, the 48M mode gives a 2M mode 🙃.

Assuming that your fingerprint scanner isn't damage, you should try with clean install or if that doesn't work either try it with MIUI from xiaomi.eu.

Almost no ginkgo related changes in the changelog of crdroid/arrow updates.

Redmi Note 8's era has gone with Android 11. Too bad for us that Android 11 is no longer maintained.

Moving a device to the latest OS version with no maintenance is a bad idea.
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] x3r0.13urn:
These probably just a stub apps - see if their size is abnormal, like they're below 1 MiB.

As long as the device tree is stable, it's okay not to have device changelogs.

I believe official crdroid for RN8/T is still maintained by DarkJoker360.
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] AA0_o:
Most likely. If I select one of them Aurora Store will display "failed to fetch app details", which i assume means the app isn't installed.

Changing the topic, I'm having two minor bugs.

(1) Do any of you get your phone restarting when you select "Power off" option?

I often select "Power off" but the smartphone restarts instead, after booting I can select "Power off" again and it will power off.

Maybe this is caused by a compatibility issue with orangefox recovery (in wich case this isn't a system bug)?

(2) When the phone turns on automatically (because of the alarm clock), if I don't enter the SIM pin right away (leaving the phone turned on for a long time) then when I enter the pin later on, it is always asking the pin, I enter the pin and press "OK" but the screen keeps the same).

I have to restart the phone and enter the pins for it to work (I have two SIM cards).
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] x3r0.13urn:
1. Yes it happens to me as well. Because I very rarely powering off the phone, I kinda accept it as not a big deal. It's very unlikely caused by recovery, might be kernel side issue because it also happens with other roms with quicksilver kernel (almost all of them use that, most other kernel are also derivatives from that too)

2. Never have chance to try auto power on as well as the pin unlock.
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] x3r0.13urn:
The aosp dialer supports for auto record into either amr or aac if I recall correctly. Unless you have it replaced with google dialer (via flashing gapps with dialer overwriter), enabling call recorder is quite tricky if your region doesn't allow the law to easily do that

Hello, thank you so much for this ROM, my Samsung A70 broke so I was left with the Note 8T which is a work phone, I was about to give up on it because the default environment was a complete headache, glitches after glitches, constantly closing my apps randomly, the lack of splitscreen in MUIU, just terrible all around and upon rooting and setting up the phone with this ROM it is night and day difference, legitimately feels like I'm handling a phone with twice the hardware specifications, huge improvement. The only issue I've noticed so far which might not even be related to the ROM itself is that the spell checking on the default keyboard (AOSP) randomly stops working and then comes back without restarting, I'm not sure what triggers it so if anyone has a clue what it could be please help out. Once again thank you to everyone who developed this.
