Can't you just disable bluetooth and check if the wakelocks go away? I always have it off when not in use

With silvercore kernel, Magisk + LSPosed + Greenify aggressive doze my phone uses around 1% charge per hour, slightly more than it was in LOS 18. I have generally very low screentimes (2-3h per charge, no games). My phone is a glorified email reader / alarm clock which very rarely is used to navigate or play some music over BT.

Does anyone else have a problem with the microSD card? When I play offline content via tidal, playback stops after an indefinite period of time and tidal can no longer access the microSD card. Google Maps can no longer access the micro SD card either. However, the card does not show as ejected and I can still access it through the file manager. I've also tried another micro SD card, but with the same result.

FYI: OTA update from 2022-07-02 to 2022-07-09 went fine on my device. All looking good so far

Note: I recently decided to go for a fresh install , after all those confusions with play services, location bug and several dirty-flash experiments with different Gapps versions. I restarted fresh with 2022-07-02 and mindthegapps, using los recovery (i.e. following exactly the official installation instructions). So far I am very happy with this combination.

[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] sponk0:
Thanks for your feedback and sharing your experience. I'm no expert on this topic, I was referring to "obvious" access to location services, including the notification banner. I don't have these any more, unless I really use gps.

The privacy dashboard in the settings menu also only shows "location" access by 3 different apps I intentionally started myself for the last 24h (navigation apps, fitness tracker). Phone services is not listed there for me
[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Abdel1993:
Please look good bro.

Go to Apps > Show System Apps > Phone Services and click on Permissions. You will see that the location permission cannot be changed and the location was recently requested.

I verified this literally minutes ago by LineageOS July 9 clean the flash with MindTheGapps.

This is a bug in LineageOS and I don't know when they plan to fix it.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] sponk0:
Yes, you are correct, the permission is set as you described, and it has been used recently.

Whether this is a bug or intended behavior I can't judge. To me the "bug" was that the annoying popup came every few minutes. I personally have no problem with a system app using system functions. Sorry if my post was misleading.

[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] xdasmile:
Thank you very much for your reply! Seeing the other posts, I thought it would be wiser, in my situation, to wait a little.

So here I’m back again, trying to get a clear picture of how to proceed.

Initial situation: TWRP, LOS 18.1, installed freshly, so I suppose with FBE, and with Mind.

Desired outcome: LOS 19. Without reinstalling and reconfiguring everything if possible. 😊

So far I see there are at least three areas where there are options.

a) Recovery: LOS vs. TWRP. From what I’ve seen, the newest TWRP supports Android 12’s file encryption, so I can go with TWRP. Last time I checked, TWRP offered better options for backing up. So is it OK if I stick to TWRP?

b) Updating procedure: there is the “official” procedure through adb (https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/beryllium/upgrade) but there is also the option of flashing a zip-file in TWRP. Is there any disadvantage of using the zip-option?

c) Gapps. I’ve seen many posts on NikGapps and MindTheGapps, and I’m not really sure which option to use. Should I stick to MindTheGapps since I’ve used it for LOS 18 and I’d like to dirty flash?

Considering all this, this would be the procedure I’d like to test :

1) in the existing system, backup everything that I can several times (online, SD card, etc.)

2) download latest nightly zip of LineageOS 19.1, MindTheGapps and TWRP — put everything on the SD card (if there is no SD card, it also works with adb, and maybe also with the internal memory but I'm not sure) [Apparently no need to update firmware which hasn't changed since 18.1]

3) reboot to recovery

4) update (flash) TWRP

5) reboot to recovery

6) backup of everything except system and vendor

7) install (dirty flash) LineageOS and MindTheGapps at once and in this order

8) clear dalvik and cache, just in case

9) reboot

10) wait a bit for the system to come up

Do you think it could work? I’m also posting it here so if it works, other people can reuse it. Once I’m a bit more confident I’ll give it a try and post the results.

Thanks a lot for your help and to the amazing developers who are making this possible (which is not only brilliant for our economies, since we don’t have to buy new phones, but also for the environment)!
[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] TioCareca:
a) i never used lineage recovery, always used twrp, seems more powerful for playing with phone.

b) adb is good when twrp is not available or with problems imo, anyway some prefer using adb to avoid any issues the recovery may cause.

c) always stick to same gapps when dirty flashing, except when advised or testing (should be the only change when changing gapps)

1) backup backup backup, you doing good...

2) you can use sd, otg or adb, avoid internal when not sure if your testing will work.

3) reboot and backup now ( you can backup again in step 6 because it can be twrp incomparability between versions)

4-9) all good with this steps

10) waiting game but attention to bootloops

Good luck 🤞
[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] xdasmile:
Thank you very much!

So I did the first step, updating TWRP (I used twrp-beryllium-v3.6.2-A12-V3.img). After rebooting, TWRP can’t decrypt my files (I suppose it’s logical because this version of TWRP is made for the A12 file encryption ?). I can still access the recovery, but since I haven’t decrypted the data, I suppose the backup will be pretty useless.

Also I don’t know if I can dirty flash the other files now, without the user being decrypted?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] TioCareca:

I've just come from 18.1 on the S5 DUOS and am really impressed with how good 19.1 works on the F1, which I clean installed last week (02/07).

Unfortunately, I figured I could just boot TWRP and install the latest (09/07). This failed making the system partition unbootable so I restored my TWRP backup, this resulted in the launcher crashing on the lock screen and clearing cache didn't fix it.

Are there any hard-and-fast rules that are particular when updating the F1?

I didn’t have problems updating within the same version of lineage on the S5 even with magisk but obviously this is a different beast.

Thanks.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] xdasmile:
It worked! I’m so so so happy! Thanks a million!!!

For "posterity", here’s what I did in the end:

in the existing system, backup everything that I can several times (online, SD card, etc.)

download latest nightly zip of LineageOS 19.1 (for me it was lineage-19.1-20220709-nightly-beryllium-signed.zip), MindTheGapps (for me it was MindTheGapps-12.1.0-arm64-20220605_112439.zip) and TWRP (for me it was twrp-beryllium-v3.6.2-A12-V3.img) — put everything on the SD card (if there is no SD card, it also works with adb, and maybe also with the internal memory but I'm not sure) [Apparently no need to update firmware which hasn't changed since 18.1] — usually, the latest files can be found here https://xdaforums.com/t/poco-f1-ultimate-collection-guides.4192715/

reboot to recovery

backup everything in TWRP except system and vendor

update (flash) TWRP

reboot to recovery — the new TWRP will not be able to decrypt the data, so press cancel when asked for your PIN, you can flash the zip files anyway

if you can, backup again [in my case it didn’t work since it wouldn’t decrypt]

install (dirty flash) LineageOS and MindTheGapps at once and in this order

clear dalvik and cache, just in case

reboot

wait a bit for the system to come up. Check if everything works fine. In my case, there were small bugs that disappeared after a second reboot.

if you want, you can now reboot to recovery, this time TWRP can decrypt your data and you can backup the functioning new system (I wasn’t able to backup SystemExt or Recovery, TWRP didn’t move forward and when I canceled, it showed an error related to CreateTarFork, but when I unchecked SystemExt and Recovery, everything went well)

Have a nice day, and thanks again to all of you and the great developers!

For some time now I have problems with my chrome bookmarks on my POCO. The bookmarks widget becomes unresponsive. And I cannot access my bookmarks at all. This happens after closing chrome and opening again. Forcibly quitting Chrome helps only once, after that only restarting the phone helps. This problem occurs only on the POCO. Syncing between other devices, PC, Chromebook, iPad, works without problems. I tried all Chrome and Google related solutions, deleting cache, data, dis- and enabling synchronisation on all my devices. I clean installed Lineageos and tried with a different Google account. Problem still exists. My whole workflow depends on my Chrome bookmarks, which makes my POCO unusable for now. Any tips or solutions?

Hey, I read a lot of different stuff about NikGapps, OpenGapps and MindtheGapps in this thread now and I think the most important information is: "Either do a clean flash and use whatever you want or just upgrade the one you have".

My problem is: I want to "only upgrade" to 19.1 while keeping data (is this a "dirty flash"?), but I can't remember which of those I installed last time. Is there any way to find this out?

I just tried to upgrade from LOS 18.1 using the latest nightly. After a few unsuccessful tries, my phone now shows this upon boot:

Here's what I did from the beginning (iirc):

First attempt:

wiped /system, /data, and /cache

installed the latest LOS nightly

installed the latest MindTheGapps for ARM64 (MindTheGapps-12.1.0-arm64-20220605_112439.zip)

This first attempt actually booted into Android fine but Google Play Services kept crashing. I read about this earlier in the thread so

as a second attempt, I tried the same process as described above but this time with an earlier version of MindTheGapps from April 16 (MindTheGapps-12.1.0-arm64-20220416_174313.zip).

This attempt booted to a black screen. When pressing the power button once, I could hear the screen locking sound. I could hold down the power button and Android's power menu showed up and I was able to press restart.

As my third attempt, I went back into recovery and did the same process again with the same older MindTheGapps version. Now, my phone just shows this upon the first boot after install:

Every boot after that just kicks me into TWRP automatically.

On my third attempt, I tried the same process again as described above but this time with the latest NikkGapps (NikGapps-core-arm64-12.1-20220709-signed.zip). Same issue with the "Factory data reset" screen and booting into TWRP..

Then, I tried to restore a TWRP backup of LOS 18.1 that I created before all of this and it failed as well.

I also tried wiping /system, /data, and /cache and then just installing the LOS zip (so the same process as above but without Gapps) and get the same problem.

I don't know what I can do now. I would greatly appreciate any help!

It's weird because the install seemed to have worked on my first try.

I installed Lineage Recovery, and installed LOS and the older MindTheGapps. Now it seems to have worked. Thanks for the help! It's a bit annoying that I can't use TWRP...
