How is the battery life on los 15.1??

Its good

Resurrection Remix 5.8.5 is very stable & as far as I'm concern, also bug-free.
To get better battery life, root it Magisk then install Greenify and Root Master (choose Battery mode).
Currently I'm using Pixel Launcher 3 instead of Trebuchet launcher from RR.
Status: Finish full charge on 7am, bring to work, connect to office Wi-Fi, back home at 6pm (also connect to Wifi), battery is still 48-51% remaining.

Does Resurrection need to wipe internal storage coming from Miui 9 Xiaomi.eu or I can flash it with simple system/data wipe? 120 GB of data is a bit annoying to be moved somewhere else.

Does it need storage wipe or only system/data wipe to be flashed?

Based on my experience moving from MIUI 8 Global Stable to Paranoid 7.2.1, it's not necessary to wipe the internal storage. Just make sure you have the right version of TWRP installed and flashed the most compatible fw version with the ROM you want to flash. As for RR, I use the capricornCNFirmware-7.11.16. Google it for the download link. Happy flashing...

A thing that I really want to know is: I'm moving to an AOSP ROM because Miui 9 system block some apps to properly working, so I want try on another ROM and I want root it,
1) can I go with SuperSU zip as usual or there are better alternatives?
And a very interesting thing I want know is
2) how does camera work? Is it good?
3) if I want apply camera mod to enable 1080p 60 FPS recording, does it work? Never tried?

If you currently use MIUI 9, make sure you unlock the bootloader first to be able to change the bootloader to TWRP. Only after successful install of TWRP you can begin flashing the custom ROM of your choice.
1) As for rooting, I use Magisk (install the zip via TWRP). Magisk comes with handy apps for you to download many interesting add-on module, such as Viper4 music equalizer, Google Product Sans font, Greenify, etc.
2) You can install gcam or even a ported Mi A1 camera apk. Browse through this XDA Xiaomi Mi5 forum. Plenty of information here
3) Sorry. Never tried this. Maybe anybody else can help?

It have that option sometimes its not functioning

60fps can be forced in some 3rd party camera apps(Google camera mods for instance) via modifying a system file, but the effect is actually the opposite. 30fps videos get about 22fps and 60fps gets 24fps. As far as i know it's IMPOSSIBLE to really record 1080p 60fps with Mi5. Probably some hardware limitation, otherwise it would be enabled by default, there have been many official updates since release.

Oh no it is possible to record in 1080p at 60 FPS infact OnePlus 3 with same hardware of Mi 5 already support this function since 2016 (shame on Xiaomi which still doesn't give us this possibility). But fortunately we have great independent developers who try to get us all features to our phone, infact on a forum some good devs were able to bring us recording in 1080p at 60 FPS. Check the Mi 5 mod section to find it and be able to use it.

Tried it, doesn't really work, I thought I made it work too. Read what I said... As far as I've read on all forums, nobody made it work, so it must be impossible. I can really love with it though.

You can install Google Camera on every ROM by yourself, so you don't have to judge ROMs by this feature
Dirty Unicorns is incredibly stable, it is what I would recommend.
I would recommend OMNI 8.1 as the performance is top notch for this ROM that will help you in gaming. As far as customization is concerned, this gives good amount of customization but not like resurrection remix.
And at last , use Skull shaddy GCam which is readily available without any further fix or setting.

Use OpenGapp ARM64 pico version, as this will give you minimum system apps such as google play store and google. After booting to the system you may install required useful apps such as gmail, youtube, maps etc from playstore. These apps can be easily uninstalled as they are installed as apk files from play store.

I did never find any issue regarding dialer or anything in any ROM.
Make sure, always clean install any ROM.

Magisk is not specific to a ROM or even device. Current/latest Magisk version marked "stable" is the usual recommendation. Unless you're asking what version number is known working on this particular ROM (question wasn't specific enough to know exactly what you intended).
Use the link given in the previous reply.
Since Sultanxda has now unfortunately changed his smartphone and stopped developing his excellent ROM for the OnePlus, I will have to look for a new ROM. :crying:
With LineAge OS from sultan I never had a problem in the past, absolutely stable, super battery life and never an error, although I always installed all updates without ever reinstalling (only dirty flash).
Now I am looking for a ROM that runs as stable and problem-free as possible and is ideal for daily use.
Updating should also be possible without any problems and no new installations should be necessary, because clean flash takes so much time.
Customization of the ROM is not so important, I don't have to be able to adjust every color of every symbol
I would be very pleased about suggestions!

Go to phone setting search for 'home' tap on home apps > Phone app > select any app either phone(the one which comes preinstalled) or the google dialer(phone app by google).

Hi gFknQ,
As you probably know I am following your posts a little and saw your switch to GZR Gapps which made me curious.
Although I find the package on the internet, I can not find a description of it.
Why your switch to GZR Gapps and do you know any references on the internet about it?
Which GZR Gapps are you using btw, the zero or the nano package?
Zero seems the same as pico for OpenGapps but is much smaller in size.

The process is simple.....But there are a few requirements that you need to do before hand.
1. Unlock your Bootloader
2. Patch your Boot.img using Magisk
3. Install Twrp. If compatible with your device. In my case I used "Geiti94" Twrp he provided (TWRP_A30_A305F_V3_ASH1.tar) this worked for me even though I've got a A305GN and was flashed using Odin.
4. Download GSI rom of your choice just make sure you download the right version for your phone otherwise you'll face endless bootloops. *****You can use "Treble Info.apk" ***** to find out what your phone system supports as there are 4 types
5. Boot into Twrp, Tap on Wipe then Advanced Wipe then select "Dalvik/Art Cache" System" Data" leave everything else as it is. Then swipe to Wipe.
6. Then go back to Twrps main screen and tap on Install and navigate to where you put the GSI file by Selecting Storage then Install Image this will show only GSI image files. Then select your GSI file then select which Partition to flash to.....Which is SYSTEM.... DONE.

My system is a Arm64 compatible with a SystemAB GSI

I haven't experienced any sort of errors/bugs yet. Everything I use on a daily basis works, but if there are any errors/bugs they have yet to show themselves.
You have to understand that there are going to be errors/bugs in any custom firmware you flash to your phone, that's just the way it is nothing's 100% besides Stock.

Yes, it is already rooted. I did it with the last one published in AOSP, published 4 days ago I think, download the version with gapps, you ride it with TWRP (it's in img) and that's it

I'm not the OP but when I tried Lineage Phh-Treble, there was an option about diameter of round corners in "Phh Treble Settings"->"Misc settings" and I set that to 20 and then the problem was fixed.

I have found that not all the Android 10 gsi I've used have this feature, Pixel Experience Q 28102019 being one of them.
so I've flashed this zip via TWRP to regain this ability. I know it doesn't work on all of them but its worth a try for those of you out there willing to give it a go.
I have successfully flashed the aosp 10 gsi (latest one) seems to be working really good.
The transitions seems to be little bit lagging with the stock launcher, and using other launcher totally removes the way task changer works. Which launcher are you guys using?
Can you make us tuturial please:fingers-crossed:

Question on options for custom Android 9 or 10 ROM

Hello!
Any custom Android 9 or 10 ROM which has all of these features (and works well overall)?
1. Working GCam OR full stock camera (any of the two is fine);
2. Working camera button;
3. Night light.
Also, am I correct that the Oreo AOSP Extended has both of these options?
Thanks in advance.

As I mentioned in my other post full stock cam and Gcam GO is available in:
Linagege OS: https://forum.xda-developers.com/xp...rom-lineageos-17-1-unofficial-coming-t4047763
Havoc OS: https://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-xz1-compact/development/rom-havoc-os-v3-6-t4113345
The shutter button works in Lineage OS, but is broken in Havoc. But you can use the double tap to open camera gesture.
Also Gcam Go is a lite version of Gcam with only portrait mode (not yet working) and HDR+ available. Hopefully more features will be ported by developers.
Night light is available in both ROMs. Others I have not tried.
Hopefully this helps.
Thanks a lot. That's very useful.
Hi again. I noticed one can install LOS17 starting from the latest (and probably last) firmware. I assume this entails losing DRM keys. Are they worth saving anymore?

As far as I know there is no photo comparison album comparing camera quality going from a DRM restored firmware and non DRM restored firmware so I don't know how much of a difference it makes.
But the ROM developers do recommend backing up DRM as it is might come in useful in the future or if you want to go back to stock. Based on what I have seen in the Lineage OS thread it is unknown why the camera works without DRM.
I would recommend backing it up since once it is lost it is lost, and restoring it to the official firmware before flashing a custom ROM guarantees that you have the best possible camera quality.
As addition info:
As far as I know there is no way to re-lock the bootloader which might make it harder to sell it so if you are planning on selling I would not recommend unlocking the bootloader.
Otherwise, happy flashing!
Wise advice about the drm. Thanks again.

I made the switch to LOS 17. It took me some 5 hours to downgrade to Oreo, save DRM, switch back to Pie and then install a fully-working LOS (the first two installs generated some issues with both cameras - the stock Sony did not focus or take photos at all, while the stock LOS was not saving pics - and with the SD); but it then finally worked (procedures followed were the same every time, go figure).
Also, I lost my attest keys in the process of downgrading to Oreo (although I did remove all persist and *.ta files before flashing); and the camera was black after this downgrade - but then the procedure worked eventually and the camera came back fully featured in Pie, somehow. Again, go figure.
All in all, I am happy for the switch and the LOS 17 is absolutely great. Will definitely buy modpunk a beer.
Now, if only there was an equally good procedure and ROM for my other phone, the xz2c, which Sony ruined with the upgrade to Q .
Thanks once again for the encouragement.

Hey, what is the native camera app you have on those? Is it good? I've got a global rom on my cc9 meitu edition but the native camera app on the global sucks big time, it is not nearly as good as they native camera app that came installed on the original Chinese stock rom.

Native camera is AOSP version. I do not use it. I am using gcam 6.2 because this is the newest version which works in a11 without buffer fix. When buffer fix will be fixed for a11 I will use better.
The native camera from MIUI is able to install. You can found both los 18.1 and camera on telegram.

And indeed it's a good camera, even though I am comparing now with the exact same phone stock version camera app that my brother has and is much better, I don't know why.
But the Gcam will do for now, so thanks.
I have a question: is it possible to adjust the shutter time? It's taking like 3 seconds to shoot the photo when I shoot it. Know what I mean?
Many gcam version are prepared. This one is without configuration file. When we will have working buffer fix , we will have much better and newer gcams.

I hear you. Is there any newer version of gcam available as of now? For our phone?
EDIT: I just realized Gcam takes pics only with 12mp max. Since my phone has 48mp, how do I fix this?
Also, the colors on photos in Gcam are washed, no vivid color even though I set the saturation to maximum on settings.
Also, is it possible, via TWRP, to uninstall the native camera app and install the APK from com.mlab.cam that came stock on my phones stock firmware?
We have some or many but for A10. I have written, we do not have working version of buffer fix for a11.
You can find a lot of XML config files for many gcam on telegram. Each separate prepared for different situations .
The camera in customs is an app and possible to uninstall normal way, is't it?
No need to uninstall, you can install in twrp what you want.

Mate, thank you very much! I finally managed to get it working properly. On the telegram group someone gave the directions to install the buffer fix and now I was able to download the latest Gcam, and it's working like a charm (except for the slow-motion video, which isn't available on the latest version).
Big thanks from the heart, mate. Have a good one.
Do you use android 10 with buffer fix for a10, or use a11 with bf for a11 or use a11 with bf for a10 ?
Using A11 with BF for A11.
I've installed 3 different gcams. These are amazing apps, I'm greatly surprised by the quality of the photos now. Even night photos are amazing.
Nice.
I discovered, enabled AFWall+ xposed module kills BF work in a11.

Got it.
I'm no longer tweaking anything, at least for now, I've been getting really nice photos, lol
Thanks for your help all the way through

Question Has anyone tried Omni rom on this device?

There's no dedicated thread for it here on xda forums. Apparently it's on omnirom's website and regularly maintained as well.
Those who have tried it please post how it compares to other roms. Thanks.

I just install omnirom right now... twice, with format data, factory reset... the same bootloop, stuck into mi logo...
I didn't find anywhere some installation instructions, I installed it after miui rom.
Omni is booting for me. works fine.

mind giving me a brief review?
is very very fast for a A12 ROM. faster than other A12 ROMs.
a few things are missing. There is no face unlock and the sound adjustment under Sounds.
I used it for face unlock: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/11-universalauth-face-unlock-for-all-roms.4419343/

What's about battery backup and stability?
Full gestures without lagging?
Extended gestures like long swipe to kill app in foreground...present?
Thanks in advance

I can't say anything yet. I only flashed OMNI yesterday evening and today the faulty update came.

yes

no
I wrote to the maintainer. Firmware 12.5 is fine. face unlock will not come as it was removed from AOSP.
I'll get a test build later. I don't know if it's already 12.1/L.
@morpheus620 hey can you please check which device's fingerprint this rom uses if you get a chance? thanks.
like which fingerprint?
the one in the power button. Which one else?

For what you need to know?
You mean fingerprint in build.prop?

yes. Most roms use fingerprint from pixel devices to pass safetynet so I was wondering if it's the same in this case as well
I'm running omnirom right now, the latest Android 13 MicroG version:
omni-13-202305201702-sweet-MICROG
The instructions don't specify which MIUI kernel to use. I'm currently using 14.0.2.0 (android 13). I also tried 13.0.16.0 (android 12), and briefly 12.5.9.0 (android 11) -- all with separate clean installs. They all seemed to work.
It is bare-bones, without many included apps, which is fine. It has a phone dialer, messaging, and contacts app. They look like they have been somewhat updated vs. the really old AOSP versions. It boots up right away after installing, without any setup.
The MicroG safetynet test always fails with "integrity check failed" -- whether magisk is installed or not. It doesn't have an issue with the CTS profile, though.
I've tried the safetynet-fix modules, v2.4.0 and v2.3.1, both the original and MOD versions, but they didn't help. I've also tried HidePropsConf, but it also didn't help (I think that's mainly for CTS profile issues, anyway, which this doesn't have).
My banking app is still working despite that, but it's too bad it won't pass. On /e/ OS I can get it to pass, using safetynet-fix v2.4.0 (original) and HidePropsConf.
Wireguard VPN works, but "Always-on VPN" and "Block connections without VPN" don't work properly. This is also the case for some versions of LineageOS and for /e/ OS. So you have to leave those settings off.
All of the cameras/lenses are available to Camera2 API and working in Open Camera. They are also available in /e/ OS. Many of the new LineageOS builds only have Camera2 API access to the main front and back cameras, so they're not suitable for me.
It does allow for partial and extended screenshots, but there's no swipe gesture to do screenshots.
It is fast charging with my phone's bq2597x charger.
It is using the JARVIS kernel, dated May 20. The rom has weekly updates, but I'm not sure if it's a new kernel version, or if it just gets rebuilt as part of the update.
I ran /e/ OS for awhile before this. It is also good, but it's Android 12, and not as up to date.
