[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] d0nkey-sh0t:
Hello @All,

I plan to but a New phone (refurbished) to install custom ROM/OS but I can't finally make a choice between two options:

- install CalyxOS on a Pixel 4a,

- install /e/OS on a OnePlus Nord.

Obviously I've read number of articles, blogs, technical threads and official websites/FAQs of related devices and ROMs/OS, but I can't choose anyway.

Could you bring some advices about that, and maybe what choice you would make at that point, based on experience ?

Thanks in advance for your help and replies!

PS: I hope to post in the right section as I'm not sure this one is fully appropriate

even with the HHC my HTC Home would only show 4 icons - with 5 selected in HHC. so I installed a file I found online called HTChome6.cab - now I have 6 "tabs" and even with one of them "unselected" in HHC it still shows all 6.

what do I have to do to have the following "tabs":

home, contacts, weather, launcher, profiles

??

thanks.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] postwick:
btw, I checked the registry for Tabsetting and the value is 1,2,4,3,6 (which is what I want) but it still displays all six tabs.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] snormansell:
Tabs

In the settings of the HHC you can adjust the amount of tabs available- the profiles opne is the one that you have to activate.

[Xiaomi 13 Ultra] bloomfielderic:
This is more like a trick problem for you guys to figure out - Lei Jun himself said that the entire Xiaomi 13 lineup had hardware support for Wifi 7 and the new band will be enabled with a future firmware update.

On a quick look I found out at least for my 13 Ultra it uses Qualcomm's latest solution that SHOULD be capable of supporting Wifi 6E at least. It's just that there isn't a "flag" (prop) that dictates the wifi region at least for my device - I'm unable to locate such flag and looks like the 6Ghz band will only support 320mhz (?) instead of 160 which is for the 6E standard.

So - is WiFi 6E possible on Xiaomi 13 etc?
[Xiaomi 13 Ultra] SnN Day ;):
Same problem here with Mi 11 Ultra... I'm rooted and when I open VPN hotspot or other non-root app it shows that 6GHz band is not supported :(

First time installing crDroid to your Redmi Note 5 Pro/AI, or coming from another ROM:

** Make sure you're running the latest TWRP Recovery

1) Boot into Recovery

2) Format Data

3) Wipe Cache, System, Internal Memory & Data

4) Copy crDroid build or other additional zip files to your device

5) Flash ROM

6) Flash Gapps (optional)

7) Flash Magisk (optional)

8) Boot up

9) I flash MicroG after first system startup

INTENTION

I spent quite some time to be able to compile this build and solve some essential issues. I like Android 11 more then version 12 or 13, but developers are rather focused on the newest releases this is the reason I built the ROM. This is a hobby project which I'd like to share with you. It might have still a lot of bugs, but I'm not able to resolve them only by myself. I use this phone rather for multimedia purpose. It's not my daily device, so I could test this build partially. Also I don't use Google Applications, rather MicroG. Hopefully it'll be useful for you.

Thanks to:

- LineageOS

- CrDroid

When I use it in a simple way (multimedia purpose, internet exploring) I haven't noticed any bugs

How long does battery usage approximately when using ?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] oscarkim:
Nice. Only problem I've encountered is double tap to wake not working.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] gregory_cooky:
I don't use it everyday, so on Fly mode with Wi-fi turned on it's about 5 days.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] gregory_cooky:
I'm dealing with other device now. When I come back to Whyred I might try to solve it.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] gregory_cooky:
Hi @oscarkim,

Double tap to wake has been fixed in the newest build

In case you're using the previous one I'd recommend to clean flash the latest
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] oscarkim:
Flashed it earlier today, great so far, thanks for fixing that. Also is it just me or is the battery life better (maybe placebo lol)
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] oscarkim:
In the new build it's great so far. The old build also had great battery life.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] yamaizano:
Hello, sir! Thanks for the rom!

I have tried this rom, and found the issue that the sdcard is not detected, I have done a clean flash, changed the recovery and changed the sdcard format and even replaced the sdcard, but this problem is still not resolved. But in /dev/block/, I can see that mmcblk1pX has been detected, any advice?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] gregory_cooky:
I confirm this issue. However, I'm not sure if I'll be able to fix it soon.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] yamaizano:
Thank you for replying, just do it when you have time, sir!
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] gregory_cooky:
Thanks for your understanding. I've uploaded new build. SD Cards seem to be working. However, when you format SD Card it's newer done. I don't know how to solved that in the System. The workaround is to boot into Recovery and there format SD Card, then back to the System and it works fine, again. I did tests on 2GB SD Card. I hope it's fine for you.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] yamaizano:
I really appreciate it. I'm fine with the issue, but it's better to fix it in its entirety so that the rom can be enjoyed by everyone. Thanks again, sir! I'll be using that rom for daily.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] gregory_cooky:
I checked more and it seems that on a different phone with different kernel issue persists. It seems that this is related rather to the system.

I don't want to mess with kernel more because now it works quite stable and this issue can be easily solved by formatting SD Card in the recovery.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] gregory_cooky:
Just uploaded latest build after some improvements. There's a delay with January Security Patch or it mightn't appear at all. Anyway it may be the last update for this project...

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] gianncap994:
There is a bug also present in the last official crdroid build (it also exists in redmi 5 plus "vince" last official crdroid build) where screen double tap to wake and close the screen is enabled by default and the toggle does nothing, if you enable the toggle touch no longer works in recovery mode too...

I wouldnt mind but it just so happens that my screen turns on randomly and press on random things or turn on airplane mode, also alot of idle battery drain because the digitizer stays activated while the display is off, any solutions? Thanks
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] gregory_cooky:
You're absolutely right. Double tap has been turned on kind of by force. Unzip attached init.target.rc file. In the file " write /sys/touchpanel/double_tap 1 " is deleted. Go to Recovery mount Vendor partition and past the file to the following path: /vendor/etc/init/hw. After that go back to the path and set permission 644 for newly copied (overwritten) file "init.target.rc". After that double tap won't work, at all. It seems to be an issue on kernel or calling double tap in device tree.

This should be the solution for you. I hope you understand what I wrote above. I do that for myself because I don't use DT2W, but someone asked me to turn it on, so I successfully did it.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] gianncap994:
Thanks! I will have a go when in my free time just in case i break anything!

Hello, I love this great Rom. Thanks.

It's not possible to connect the FM Radio app to my Bluetooth speaker?

I think it's a bug. Is there a solution?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] gregory_cooky:
Hi,

Thanks for your comment. This is quite interesting question. To launch FM Radio you need to connect a mini jack cable. Then a phone detects that headphones have been connected and the sound is being processed through the cable and it also works as an antenna for the radio. I think that such possibility should be implemented into the FM Radio application so there can be an option to switch to a phone's speaker or BT. Nevertheless, if there's other solution to solve it via sound policy I don't think I'm advanced enough to provide such.

Current solution for you might be a cable to the BT Speaker (if supported) or the Internet Radio :-))))
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] alecxtra:
I had the same issue but I got completely lost at " Go to recovery mount vendor partition", could you elaborate it a bit?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] gregory_cooky:
There you have a help article. You have to have appropriate Recovery (I use TWRP 3.6.2_9-0) and have connected your PC with the phone.

1. Unzip file

2. In Recovery mount Vendor partition (as you can read in the article)

3. Open Command line (from the path where you unzipped init.target.rc)

4.

adb push init.target.rc /vendor/etc/init/hw/

5.

adb shell

6.

chmod 644 /vendor/etc/init/hw/init.target.rc

7.

exit
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] Nanti1:
Thanks for your quick response.

I was afraid that it is the FM radio app that cannot connect via Bluetooth.

I know that the FM radio application is strongly linked to the System and that it is not possible to replace and include it in this Rom.

In fact, I also have another CrDroid rom (Android 10) installed on an old Motorola Moto E with another FM radio app that connects wonderfully with Bluetooth.

Conclusion, you can not have everything.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] Nanti1:
Hello again, I have noticed that you can turn on the device by setting an alarm for a specific time. But once it has turned on the missed alarm notification comes instead of ringing, so I set two alarms, one to turn on and a few minutes later another to wake me up. I wanted to record this.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] gregory_cooky:
Hi,

Thanks. Maybe during next security patch update I'll be able to fix this issue.

I solved it by using Google clock instead of default one.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] Nanti1:
Hello, I don't know if it's just my problem. "CrDroid Home has stopped working", enters bootloop. I have frozen CrDroid Home and temporarily installed Pear Launcher and everything is great.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] gregory_cooky:
Build with February Security Patch has been uploaded
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] gregory_cooky:
I haven't noticed anything like that even once. Could you please check if alarm issue is solved?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] Nanti1:
Hello, first of all thank you for the update and the work it entails. I summarize my experience:

- The scheduled alarm no longer turns on the device.

- The "CrDroid Home" launcher error continues to appear (I suspect this is exclusively my problem).

- The option to turn on the screen by double tapping on it no longer works.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] gregory_cooky:
Hiya,

Thanks for checking

- I've just uploaded a test build pls give it a try

- Launcher could be wrongly called (even though no issues on my phone)

- I turned it off cause it drained a lot of battery (honestly, I don't know how to call this feature properly or find the root cause why it can't be called common way)

I'm about to finish this project. I might revert updated blobs for Poweroff alarm as the last commit for this phone.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] Nanti1:
Ok, testing it. So far everything works correctly.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] gregory_cooky:
BONUS update: The build is still uploading. However, I think I fixed Double Tap to wake and improved (hopefully !!!) performance. LOS and crDroid finished support Android 11 and it was the longest supported Android System (according to crDroid Team - I'd compare it to Windows 7 :))) ). I don't expect any further updates for this project. I hope what was working will still work.

Dear Users Thank You for using builds made at this hobby project :)

BTW: When I look at this device I still like the design of this phone and I love its display quality. Still using it as my kind of a multimedia device...
