Amazing Work on this ROM

...Buut for some reason the camera doesnt seem to work, like it thinks its in use but not really, and any other camera apps i tried doesnt work

if you need some sort of log i can send it idk

Apart from that its REALLY good to have people like you making Roms for such ignored/unknown cellphones, so thank you :)

Wooh! Looks like the Xiaomi 11T phone is getting more attention. I would like to try this ROM in a couple of weeks. Now testing the crDroid ROM. Thanks @ziadtamer11!
[Xiaomi 11T] PrfyVdlx:
Just to clarify, requirement says phone should be in HyperOS ROM before flashing this.

But there is the Clean flash (coming from a different ROM) which says I can just flash this PixelOS ROM over the crDroid ROM (or other ROMs for that matter).

Please help to clarify. Thank you!
[Xiaomi 11T] PrfyVdlx:
I managed to flash this ROM. Sorry I had to leave crDroid ROM testing abruptly.

I will complete device set up, use and test this Pixel OS ROM.
[Xiaomi 11T] ziadtamer11:
Dirty flash will boot up the pixelOS rom but expect many crashes, so clean flash is always better at this case
[Xiaomi 11T] PrfyVdlx:
Got it. Thank you!
[Xiaomi 11T] aftercursor:
Can u share some screenshots of this rom? Thanks in advance 😃
[Xiaomi 11T] PrfyVdlx:
I think we can ask the dev for that. Unfortunately for me, I went back right away to crDroid ROM, also by the same dev. I like the customization options of crDroid ROM better: Font face, grid size (density), etc.

I found that I am not able to change the font face of PixelOS ROM, and to me, that is very limiting.
[Xiaomi 11T] PrfyVdlx:
I flashed this ROM again, and now testing and discovering. Here are some screenshots, as you requested:

And for the battery, I charged to 100%, and set bedtime mode from 12.50 am to 6.50 am, but stayed up late, so I had to pause it 2 times. By the time I went to bed, battery change was 74%. In the morning, I checked and battery change is 67%. That is 7% drain overnight (around 6 hours). PixelOS ROM looks promising!

[Xiaomi 11T] aftercursor:
Thanks bro. I already installed this rom too 😃
[Xiaomi 11T] aftercursor:
Any way to change font style on this rom without root? I want to change font style to google sans font
[Xiaomi 11T] PrfyVdlx:
I didn't find. I have said it in one of my earlier posts. I also searched on Pixel phones, and not being able to change font is one of the major complains. I'm testing the battery performance primarily, and that maybe it.

Most probably I would go back either to crDroid ROM or Evolution ROM. These 2 have fonts for you to choose from, with Evolution ROM having the bedtime feature similar to PixelOS ROM.
[Xiaomi 11T] PrfyVdlx:
So I charged the phone to 100% and unplugged around 10.30 pm and left it idle. Earlier I set bedtime with black and white mode and all from 12.10 am to 6.40 am and went to sleep. Around 7.00 am, I checked the percentage, and it showed 86%. So roughly in idle mode and bedtime mode of about 8 hours, that is like 2% discharge per hour. That is just 1 night though, and it could just be on my phone. For all we know, this behavior is on my phone only. Let's hear from others, too.
[Xiaomi 11T] aftercursor:
My battery is too old, so I don't see different between hyperos. Btw my camera app is too dark. Do your camera dark too? And video call via WhatsApp for font camera is darker 😆
[Xiaomi 11T] PrfyVdlx:
Sorry bro. I don't use WA video call, so I wouldn't know about this one. And I will not be able to test also the camera. I have gone back to Evolution ROM. Aside from bedtime feature, there is the added scheduled Sleep time, where all signals are cut off, so really battery drain should be so minimal. I will prove that tonight. I have flashed all the ROMs for Xiaomi 11T, and this time, I will keep Evo ROM for a while.
[Xiaomi 11T] thanos49:
Hi, have you checked SafetyNet and Play Integrity support on this rom? What does it say?
[Xiaomi 11T] PrfyVdlx:
Sorry, no. I did not try. I would install Magisk last time when root is required to flash custom ROMs. Since root is not required anymore, and all that is need is just to unlock bootloader, I don't use Magisk anymore. Last time I tried to install Magisk, all of the government and baking apps don't work.

What I did is to just try out all the ROMs (Evolution, crDroid, LOS, PixelOS) without Magisk and all the gov and banking apps work. I did not need to flash Magisk.

I hope I answered your question.
[Xiaomi 11T] Grey0612:
Good day.

Anyone tried Los,Crdroid,evoX and PixelOs?

Which one is better for daily drive? And battery back up?

Sorry its my first rime using a dimensity chipset and im not familiar of Dimensity using Custom rom. Thank you.
[Xiaomi 11T] PrfyVdlx:
I have tried all ROMs. Please read the posts. There are just a couple of pages so it should not take you more than 30 minutes to go through all.
[Xiaomi 11T] Grey0612:
Okay thank you.
[Xiaomi 11T] Grey0612:
I read it,thanks, this rom is better at bedtime or idle mode, i think i will flash this rom, what rom are you using now?
[Xiaomi 11T] PrfyVdlx:
I should not talk about other ROMs, but since you ask, I will just give my observation.

I tested these ROMs: Evolution, crDroid, PixelOS and LOS.

1. LOS, I reported that when flashing the GApps, it throws 'no space' error during installation, then it will cause Pixel launcher to crash, and keyboard will not show up. I also mentioned that when I used GApps from crDroid (min, I think), then there is no issue. So the bigger GApps package that comes with LOS ROM is the culprit. I have reported that in the LOS ROM thread. I did not test any longer, so nothing to say more.

2. PixelOS, no issue flash, but you are not able to change the font face. I did not test for long, so I cannot say anything about battery performance.

3. crDroid, no issue flashing. Many font faces, but I find that the battery drain is around 12% overnight with bedtime mode on from 11.30 pm to 6.30 am. So far, I did not find any issue. Just the battery drain is higher in idle mode and while in use compared to Evolution ROM. Another tester seem to have configured deep sleep which improves battery drain, so I am waiting to test that also.

4. Evolution (Balut) ROM, no issue flashing. Just take note that this requires MIUI 14, while first 3 require HyperOS when flashing the ROMs. Note that NFC is no working in this ROM, but you will still find in battery usage that NFC shows. Clear all in only available in notifications, but not in app history. You have to scroll all the way to the left (first app). But so far, this is the better battery performance in idle mode and while in use. I am currently using this ROM.

And since I have my 2nd device now, I am testing LOS ROM.

I have just completed 5 days of testing crDroid ROM (again), and battery drain is still the issue I find in that ROM. So I go to test LOS ROM again.
[Xiaomi 11T] PrfyVdlx:
Thank you for asking. I hope I have answered your question. Let us know how your testing goes. As always, this is by device, as each device is unique. Hear from you soon.
[Xiaomi 11T] Grey0612:
Thank you very much, godbless you.im planning to swap my mi 11t to samsung s21 fe, but i researched that it has triple 8 snapdragon, i have a trauma in that chipset beacause my other device is mi 11 5g it has overheating issues. Thanks for your help, i will flash the Evo x rom and i will keep my mi11t...god bless
[Xiaomi 11T] moniokerzz:
currently, I'm on crdroid 10.5. can i use the process above and clean flash the pixelos to my device? or should i revert back from hyperos first before i flash this rom? as mentioned above. device must be in hyperos. just a bit confused with this one. thank you
[Xiaomi 11T] PrfyVdlx:
Actually, clean flash means for Evolution ROM, device must be in MIUI 14, and for crDroid, LOS and PixelOS ROMs, device must be in HyperOS (1.0.3/4).
[Xiaomi 11T] moniokerzz:
oooh thank you so much for you response! I'll give this a try.
[Xiaomi 11T] PrfyVdlx:
So, has anybody tried this ROM? How is the battery performance?
[Xiaomi 11T] M3chdragon:
Everything was nice with this rom besides one important part for me and that was/is google Wallet. Couldn't make it work, even after trying with magisk. So i ditched it and went to crDroid, where Wallet works, but battery drain problem xD.. Thinking about testing LOS.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DaedalusWren:
Looking for a way to unbrick my Tab 13. This tablet has been a glitchy one since it was purchased. Purchased three at the time and two are great, This one would turn the screen of at any time it wanted to, so when we got a new one I tried to fix this one. I flashed it with a new rom and then had verify issues. Fixed them and had a red NOT VERIFY in the corner of the screen. Tried to modify System directory file to get rid of this, only to find that Android 12 made a Super Partition that was Read Only. So I found a stopgap with a Magisk Mod. Things were good, but I was still looking for a way to modify the System file. Then I come across RO2RW, which apparently turns the Super partition to a regular one so you have full control of all files.

Well, I used the program, and all seemed well till I rebooted and reset the data on the Tab. Then it would only boot to a screen that said there was an error and i needed to wipe the data. No mater what I did, this screen was all I could access.

I found the updated rom again and flashed it, then I got the Red error on the boot screen, and the tab would reboot.

I have an Identical Tab that was rooted and working fine, so I read the whole rom and attempted to write it to the tab that was acting up.

Same errors. I then set the SP Flash to Format All + Download. Well there was an error writing the Preloader and now it is a lovely brick.

No USB access, No bootloader menu access, the only sign of life is a red led when I plug it in to charge.

I have taken it apart and tried using SP Flash to write to it with the battery removed, to no avail.

I have seen a few videos about grounding test pads to allow eprom write. but I don't know if it is the same with the Tab 13.

Any and all help with this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.
[General Questions and Answers] ttbofficial:
Hi everyone,

I recently got an IMO Q2 Plus to install a LineageOS GSI on. I chose one that the phone supports, unlocked the bootloader, did the necessary gsi flashing steps, etc

However, the phone wouldn’t boot as verity wasn’t disabled. Since this specific model of the IMO Q2 Plus is so unknown I couldnt find a vbmeta image.

I tried flashing a blank one but it would just be stuck on writing, like it would send the file via fastboot but not write it

Now I tried erasing the vbmeta partition and flashing the file again however it didn’t fix anything

Since i erased the vbmeta partition I accidentally rebooted the phone and now it won’t boot anymore

Is there any way to recover the phone or any better, to get the GSI to boot?

The phone has a Spreadtrum SC9832E if anyone needs to know
[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
AFAIK people before flashing a custom ROM typically copies device's vbmeta.img to PC, and write it back by command fastboot --disable-verity flash vbmeta vbmeta.img what in fact modifies vbmeta header to disable hashtree image verification. Disabling verity ensures that the modified ROM won’t be rejected during the verification process. Once verity is disabled, you can proceed with flashing the ROM.

Without having a copy of device's original vbmeta.img at your hands you have no chance. IMO.

FYI: If you flash an empty vbmeta.img, the device’s verified boot process may fail to verify the kernel and other partitions what mostly results in boot failure or a boot loop, as the system won’t trust the modified partitions.
[General Questions and Answers] ttbofficial:
Understood.

I don’t really care about the device as it was like 5€ but yeah thanks for telling me

Guide to unbrick your phone:

In case the described flashing process doesn't work and your phone becomes bricked (boot loop, stuck during boot or no reaction at all), here's what to do to unbrick your phone and reinstall MIUI:

If your phone still reacts on long pressing the power button, you can start this process. If there's no reaction at all, it might be stuck in BROM mode or battery is empty. If you think the battery might have run out of juice, charge it with a normal charger for at least 30-60 minutes (maybe check with an intermediary power meter if it's really drawing any energy). If it's stuck in BROM mode (happened to me twice), the only solution I found is to open the phone and disconnect & reconnect the battery.

1. Download the official MIUI Fastboot ROM that you want to reinstall (12.0 or 12.5; if you want to retry installing a custom ROM with the process described in the first post, use 12.0).

2. Use this guide to flash your bricked phone with the original ROM: https://xdaforums.com/t/how-to-guid...hing-with-sp-flash-tool-in-brom-mode.4628035/

For me, step 2 worked best with choosing these files/options:

- Download-Agent: DA_6765_6785_6768_6873_6885_6853.bin

- no Authentication File

- Mode 'Format all + Download'

Warning: In some posts, I've also read that the 'Format all + Download' mode might erase everything incl. IMEI, leaving your phone totally unusable/beyond repair. I've used the mode several times and it worked (had to use it to remove the instant bootloader unlock, if I remember correctly), but I'd suggest you first try with the 'Download Only' mode.
[Redmi 9A Guides, News, & Discussion] Vivalis:
And here's what doesn't work (all my ROM flashing and bootloader unlocking attempts with no success):

- You can't flash LineageOS 20 (Android 13) on a phone with MIUI 12.0 (Android 10). It will leave the phone bricked. As described in step 9 of the guide, you have to flash MIUI 12.5 with Android 11 + the Vendor R before flashing LineageOS.

- Using the instant bootloader unlocking tool as described in steps 5 and 6 of the guide only works with MIUI 12.0. You can't flash/upgrade your phone to MIUI 12.5 and then unlock the bootloader with this tool. It will leave your phone bricked.

- Funny enough, unlocking the bootloader with the official MI Unlock Tool also works with MIUI 12.0 only. I tried to to it after flashing with a MIUI 12.5 Fastboot ROM (using the procedure in post 2 of this thread), and it left my phone in a boot loop.

- OrangeFox recovery doesn't work. It returned assert errors when flashing Vendor R and LineageOS (step 9 in guide).

- Flashing a custom recovery with the SP Flash tool (as described in post 2 of this thread) while installing the original MIUI ROM (in SP Flash, select custom recovery.img - OrangeFox or TWRP - on line for recovery partition) doesn't work. Will result in a bricked device.
[Redmi 9A Guides, News, & Discussion] Vivalis:
My big question:

I like my unbloated and responsive Redmi 9A with LineageOS 20 and Android 13. However, there's a BIG annoyance: Multitasking/memory management is so bad that everytime I switch apps, the app activated totally reloads as if it was shut down and restarted. Do you guys know...

- why the OS works this way?

- if this is a problem of the custom ROM (LineageOS) or of Android 13?

- if this is configurable (e.g. in dev options)?

- whether other custom ROMs have this problem, too?
[Redmi 9A Guides, News, & Discussion] aparateq:
I have MIUI 12 (Android 10) with an unlocked bootloader and root. According to your instructions, I should now install TWRP, then Wipe Dalvik, Cache, Data, and flash MIUI 12.5. Here is my question: is the MIUI 12.5 provided here - https://xdaforums.com/t/rom-13-unof...redmi-9a-9c-10a-blossom.4609367/post-89552432 suitable? I understand that after this I should flash Vendor R and only then LineageOS (in zip form) and GApps, and after all this, perform a data format.

Can LineageOS 20 (Android 13) be rooted? I need root so that the DroidPPPwn application (for PS4 modification) can find the ethernet adapter.
[Redmi 9A Guides, News, & Discussion] Vivalis:
Yes, you need Vendor R if you have unlocked the bootloader with the unofficial, instant unlocker as described in my post. AFAIK, you don't need Vendor R if you you've unlocked the official way with the MI Unlocking Tool.

As I've described, you need MIUI 12.5/Android 11 on the phone prior to flashing LineageOS 20/Android 13. So yes, the sequence matters! Wipe Dalvik/Cache/Data -> install MIUI 12.5 -> install Vendor R -> install LineageOS -> install GApps -> format Data.

I don't know if LineageOS 20 can be rooted. You should ask this question in the LineageOS thread.
