Law in my country allows it, but I dont have a option to record when I am in call.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Skyblueborb:
Try out BCR for the time being, i just looked into it, will see what i can do, but probably i wont release a whole new build just for that, but if you really need it, i can consider building it with the stuff i think might work and sending it to you. ofc when ill have the time for los 20 (currently working on 21 actually)
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] michaelSP2:
Yea i see BCR but i dont wanna root my device. I'd love to have this feature but that isn't necessary, just wanted to know why there isn't option to tap to record call in dialer.

No need to build it to just change this feature, I know how time and resource consuming it is. Thank you anyways.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] michaelSP2:
I actually decided to install magisk and try BCR as you suggested, but in magisk installation instructions here i dont know what is boot.img. Is it recovery image or something in rom file?
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Skyblueborb:
Some

Something in the ROM file, the easier way to install magisk is to sideload the zip/apk from recovery (adb sideload magisk.apk)
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] michaelSP2:
Yes, but in instructions above it says that it is no longer recommended.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Skyblueborb:
Because it can have issues on newer devices afaik, we aren't a new device so it's fine

I've been flashing it that way almost always and I have no issues at all
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Skyblueborb:
But if you insist on doing the recommended way, search for payload-dumper on GitHub, use that too to dump the boot.img from the payload.bin you can find and extract in the ROM zip
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] michaelSP2:
Aaa, ok i understand. I'll do it that way. Thank you.

I'm interested in using the rom, however, I need the banking apps to work. I'm currently using "Cherish OS 4.6" but the bank doesn't work and neither does the fingerprint. Is the rom stable? How are the bugs?
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Skyblueborb:
- banking apps all are different, banking app x can work on my ROM, banking app y won't work no matter what you try. Better give specific app names in order to check. Safetynet last I checked passed in my los, but google recently tweaked all their play integrity stuff, so you better look into rooting and using playintegrityfix. It's just a cat and mouse game with the modding community and Google, google fixes something, we try to find a workaround and it's like that in repeat

- fingerprint works wonderfully here

- stable for me, can't vouch for others

- only bugs I found are in some features I added in the latest update (the annoying notifs and I think incall vibrations got broken after qpr3 and I missed it)

And just in case you expect LineageOS to have all the features of CherishOS, it won't. It's a simple ROM that is pretty similar to AOSP with only some useful modifications and features.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Dravos:
Acabei de instalar! A impressão digital não está funcionando inicialmente, existe alguma configuração adicional para liberá-la?
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Skyblueborb:
have you replaced your display? it should ask in you setup to set a fingerprint

the settings for fp are under Settings>Security>Fingerprint
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Dravos:
I go there and the option to add finger appears. but it doesn't register.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Skyblueborb:
i cant suggest anything other than clean your hands, register the finger properly (from all sides) and thats it

if you replaced the display and its an amoled you may require the sensor to be calibrated
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Dravos:
Congratulations on the work! I've been using it for a few days and the rom is running very well, however, I haven't been able to get the fingerprint to come back. Do you think it makes a difference which version of the stock rom you were using before flashing? Another detail, I live in a hot country, and at times I noticed that the cell phone got a little hotter than normal, is there a kernel or something we can do? I read somewhere about a kernel to avoid battery drain but I don't remember where or which rom it was for.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Skyblueborb:
- shouldnt matter if its android 11, but generally use the latest one

- and i havent touched fingerprint for a long time, so yeah, if you replaced the screen that might be an issue as well

- there is another kernel but not specifically for reducing heat
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] innercity:
During installation the verification fails on GMS and Vanilla.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Skyblueborb:
Why don't you just click yes on the popup

I just provide a general recovt, if I wanted to avoid that, I'd need to provide a recovery like that signed with my keys

Hello! Which gapps ( Platform / Android / Variant ) should i use for minimal google impact?!
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Skyblueborb:
GMS is the simplest to install and use, it has the bare minium google apps
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] nov01:
Pico ?
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Skyblueborb:
Gms variant of this ROM
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] nov01:
Mate, i mean is it like pico .. or more apps are included?

I am asking because i dont use gallery, file manager, sms, maps, lens, assistant, or any apps which can be replaced by a FOSS app.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Skyblueborb:
Mate I said it has the bare minimum google apps above, only playstore and gms and some other stuff that is required

Влючение двойным этапом не работает после прошивки magisk.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] 179342486lis:
Как исправить?
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Skyblueborb:
It works, double tap to sleep works after installing magisk. I don't know what you did. I was using magisk always during testing and I used D2TS daily, so it's something with your setup
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] 179342486lis:
Да. Извиняюсь за свою некомпетентность. Перепрошил на чистую. Все заработало. Спасибо. Отличная прошивка.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] G.S.T:
Thanks a lot for keeping this device alive
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] ricanxd:
Funny how I bought this phone for $130 as an emergency back phone some years back, from AliExpress I believe. Pretty much used it as a media player until I gave it to my dad as an upgrade from his old Samsung. He bought a new phone, so I asked him to give me this one back to tinker with. I flashed the Pixel experience ROM and it was great, but they stopped support at Android 12. Tried spark OS ROM, but switched to this one and it's been great. Definitely gotten my money's worth out of this device lol.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] nov01:
Is there any way to add a new font (for example comfortaa) and set as default?
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] avinashmajhi222:
I also want the to change font, I still figuring out how to add custom fonts. I just found it on

settings > wallpaper and style > fonts.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] avinashmajhi222:
@Skyblueborb great stable rom brother, been using it since past 10 days. I just found some minor issues, hope you consider are,

1. brightness issue while calling, it raises the brightness to full shorty after call ends.

2. controlling volume through the nofitication center automatically throws to lock screen ( happens when playing youtube videos on chrome )

great job brother. i wasnt expecting it to be this stable.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Skyblueborb:
There's no such feature in LineageOS. You need to use magisk modules or the like.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] popej:
I see reports, that Pixel spoofing can lead to problems:

(Temp. fix:root reqd.) High CPU usage and battery drain due to Google Play Services.

Google Play Services is causing high CPU usage and massive battery drain( >25%/h) continuously. Battery temps. cross 40°C in no time. The issue persisted upon rebooting the device. Had to finally freeze it. In FKM, I/O section shows constant...

xdaforums.com

Should we expect the same?
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Skyblueborb:
1. I haven't experienced this when I was using los 20

2. What notification center? Mind sharing a screen recording of it?

If you'd want these issues to be resolved I need to know how to replicate them, so please include as many details as possible (logs are appreciated), for ex. Which dialer are you using? Any other mods (magisk? magisk modules?). Just so I know what issue I am possibly dealing with
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Skyblueborb:
People in my tg group ain't screaming that it's bugging out, I use MicroG so I dunno what gms does. Had a few testers, none reported any major battery drain increases. I just added it for my own convenience (since I use gphotos myself, previously I used the lsposed module). I might kill the spoofing for other parts (play integrity or whatever, that doesn't work anymore) and only keep it for gphotos for the next release
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] avinashmajhi222:
1. When proximity sensor automatically turns off the display when we take it near to ear while in call then it fails to retain the previous brightness after it ends.

2. It was here in the notification panel (control centre ) screenshot added. Although not always but sometimes.

I am using pure stock lineage by you with some gapps flashed. I think i flashed gapps on the top of gms version.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Skyblueborb:
1. do you have auto brightness enabled? can you check if it happens with it disabled as well?

2. this i might look into, does it only happen in chrome youtube? and from what you've said, it locks the device? did i get that correctly?

and that gms thingy, not recommended, gms build on los 20 has mind the gapps (the recommended official los gapps package), so if you plan on using that, just use gms
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] avinashmajhi222:
1. When I turn on automatic brightness it works okay it retains. But when I turn it off it unables to retain the last brightness.

2. Yes, it only happens when I control volume while I play youtube on google chrome. Not frequently happens though but sometimes it does throw me to lock screen.

yes I am using gms it is stable, I am assuming why hasn't los made it an official build yet.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Skyblueborb:
1. No idea then

2. I'll investigate it maybe later

The reason why it isn't official is mostly because of the source modifications I did
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] nov01:
like what (module) ?
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Skyblueborb:

something like this
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] nov01:
Magisk doesn`t like those zips
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Skyblueborb:
Which version of magisk and which zip did you download
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] nov01:
Magisk iss 26.4 .. and in the OMF folder (https://github.com/khirendra03/Font-modules/tree/main/Modules) i downloaded some fonts, tried to install it trough magisk and it gives me the error from my last post. Also i can`t do anything with this OMF module.

Why do I have a system notification to update to Android 14????
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Skyblueborb:
probably because of the spoofing I did (wanted gphotos spoof and Safetynet fixed) but now that Safetynet is deprecated next update I'll only spoof gphotos. For now ignore that notification
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Hobbi1:
Too bad, I thought it was early Christmas 😝
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] albata:
Thanks @Skyblueborb !

I would like to build by myself. The kernel repository hasn't lineage 20 branch. You use the 18.1 branch?
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Skyblueborb:
the kernel i use on los 20 is closed source (NoName), as is my up to date device tree for los 20 (the one public on my profile has been last updated 7 months ago lmao). now you might ask the reason why? kanging. the community of this phone behind the scene has always been ****, people stealing each others work without credit and a ton of other dramas. most people on a13 have privated their trees and im in an github organization with a few other good and trusted devs, we share a bunch of work and we all use the same default kernel (NoName). that's the state of this community currently, not very fond of private work, but it is what it is.

and well other open source kernels are pretty much the one i have linked (i actually used it in the first builds of los 18 and some of the first of los 20 iirc but you might need to add some flags for broken clang support in boardconfig or use a custom toolchain like proton-clang)

oh and also a note on building, i do a bit of source modification, some of the stuff in dt would need to be reverted if you dont use my repos (one thing that immediately comes to my mind is the framework dimming, it will error with some cpp errors about onShow/HideOverlay)

if you want some help in all this you can message me on telegram (thats where i usually am the most active, xda has always been a second thought for me)
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] albata:
As I have to compile for my phone (other model), I wanted to take the opportunity to do so for this model too. But it's not my phone, I wouldn't have the energy to contribute (and certainly wouldn't have the skills).

No problem, I'll use your builds.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] sclad:
I tried installing it and now my phone seems to be on but the screen is all black. What I did was exactly this:

1. From phone I updated it to Android 11.

2. From computer, flashed LOS recovery using both fastboot flash boot_a boot.img and fastboot flash boot_b boot.img

3. Rebooted phone to recovery, and inside it clicked Apply update > Sideload from ADB

4. From the computer I tried sideloading it with adb sideload lineage-20.0-20231028-UNOFFICIAL-laurel_sprout-gms.zip

the result was:

Total xfer: 1.00x

5. From recovery I reboot into system (without formatting which I forgot).

And from that point the screen is black and holding power button or volume up/down + power seems to restart it (I can hear Windows sounds of the device connecting/disconnecting), but I can't connect to it neither from ADB nor fastboot on my computer, nor can I do anything from the phone itself. Is there anything I can try?
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] maxim531010:
Does the phone enter EDL mode?
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] sclad:
I didn't know about EDL mode, but isn't there anything else I could try before? I'm not so keen on opening it, but will do so as a last resort. It seems easy enough but the back cover is already cracked.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] maxim531010:

[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] maxim531010:

If the bootloader is unlocked, just press both volume buttons on the turned off phone and connect to the computer.

[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Skyblueborb:
oh boi, i just read it, asked another laurel dev about it and it actually is xiaomis fault (for shipping anti-rollback OTA). if you were on android 10 (which i assume you were), the OTA flash android 11 into one slot, then you flash los 20 into the slot with android 10, and boom goes the anti-rollback. as the previous guy here said, your phone is in EDL mode currently (if you hear the plugging sound in windows, means it usually is in EDL). now you dont have to open up the back. if you need help, message me (preferably on telegram, way faster communication there imo), helped a few people unbrick their phones, you just need the right files (and i discourage following guides online/youtube, they mayyy work, but they may also be sketchy and provide false info).
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] sclad:
Yes, makes sense. I didn't expect it would turn into this long of a discussion, I really appreciate your help nonetheless.

That's right, I was on Android 10 and just earlier updated into 11. I'll accept your help offer.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] kmika:
hey guys, I have an A3 device and considering to flash it with a custom rom. I just read the end of this topic and now I am not sure if I can flash this rom as my device is on Android 11. Can someone clarify this for me?
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Skyblueborb:
if you are on android 11 (and flashed at leastt 2 android 11 updates via OTA) you will be fine, the issue above is because he was on android 10, then ota updated to android 11, so the situation looked like this: Slot A - Android 11, Slot B - Android 10. Now when he wanted to flash lineage, he flashed it onto the android 10 slot and boom, bricked by xiaomis rollback protection. if you want to be safe you can flash stock rom in both slots using fastboot before installing any custom roms

Many thanks for the great ROM which keeps the trusty Mi A3 up to date. May be a minor bug or a setting issue.: When using a WiFi scanning app it does show dB and latency, but not the bandwidth.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] sclad:
With the help of Skyblueborb the phone works again, so just an update that might help someone in the same boat I was.

With the phone in EDL mode, download MiFlash 2020.3.14.0 (especifically that version), install the drivers using it (I did with the phone disconnected) and then try flashing the service rom with correct prog_firehose file. After the process is done, the phone is ready for use.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Skyblueborb:
which app?
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Mi-Lutz:

[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] arleyantes:
Thank you so much for helping me revive this old phone! I'm liking it much better than the original system. It's much more stable, no comparison.

If you could please help me, I'm having an issue with battery life. In the past, when I went to sleep, I'd wake up and the battery would be almost the same. Now it drains itself over night. I had the habit of keeping it under my pillow, now it overheats over night and I don't do it anymore. During the day, the battery is drained at a much faster rate too. If this information helps, I noticed that when I lock the screen, it keeps itself on, showing the time and the fingerprint spot, it never goes entirely black.

Thank you again for the ROM, and the support you give your community! I don't speak English as a native speaker, but I can follow directions to identify the root issue with battery life, and possibly solve it.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] binini:
Hello everyone.

I broke my display and replaced it with a lcd display.

The lcd displays works fine as long as I'm using it. But If I leave it for 30 secs (I chronometer it) without touching it, it start behave strange. I activate show taps and pointer location, and it appears as it is locking the first 3 touches. When I turn the screen off and on again, the display starts working normally.

I search around and found this thread https://xdaforums.com/t/screen-unresponsive-for-a-minute-after-unlocking.4397719/ where it says that the kernel must be recompiled to use lcd instead of amoled.

Does anyone have experience with changing amoled to lcd and if this a known issue? I'm using the custom rom from this thread, what file should I change in order to set the kernel to use lcd instead of amoled?

Thank you.
