Willing to pitch in $10 for any developer(s) that can bring Pixel Experience ROM!!! - Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion

Who is with me? I am committing to donating as long as the ROM is a proper port/build and is stable and reliable enough to be a daily driver.
Let's see who else can commit to donate!
Can't stand MIUI!!!!

this is not how it works... devs on xda are no professionnals, they build roms on their spare time, after school or work hours.
The main problem is not to build any rom, but is to make sure it is usable and stable.
Patience is a vertue

Forgive me, but I don't understand why people are waiting for custom ROMs to show up when a GSI is working perfectly fine (in a better state than the current build of LOS)
OP, what is stopping you from using a GSI. You can continue to use the vendor image from your stock MIUI build while swapping out top-level GSIs

hmm for me i cannot use GSI roms. it says 'wrong pin' whenever i set pin/pattern.

$10 is actually nothing in comparison to the hard work that is required to build any ROM whatsoever, and that's why we must be grateful to have you building lOS for us for FREE!

i will pay $100

Guys I have tremendous respect for all devs, of any device. I've owned myself from LG G2, G3, G4, Samsung S2, HTC M7 all the way to Samsung Note 8. I appreciate it all the hard work they put in. The reason why I took the initiative to incentive the very few ones that are following/owning our devices right now is because of that very same reason, there is little attention to this device.
I know most of them do this because it's a hobby or a side thing or to get some exposure/experience, but I know money is not the greatest motivator to them at all.

I heard someone say there is still lots of bugs with LOS GSI on our device.
Can you confirm it is bug free on RN7 China version?

Still waiting for this

Pixie dust is out for treble.
Load it that way.
Edit:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/pr...evice-development/9-0-pixel-dust-pie-t3862484
Lots of other GSI images as well!
I am waiting three hundred hours to unlock bootloader, or I would give you more specific instructions.
Basically flash GSI image to your system partition, threads will include more information .

Hi OP, no offense, but offering $10 for personal rom request like this really cheapen out the dev's work. Porting a custom ROM isn't an easy work, and offering them this small amount of money is offensive.
Either wait until someone ported PE then donate to the dev, or join some lavender development group on telegram and throw some hundred bucks until someone's agreed to built you a rom.

why don't you want to use the pe already built for our device? this rom has been around for months yet you lot all appear to have never seen the thread.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-7/development/rom-pixel-experience-t3930709
official status means absolutely *nothing*. if it works, it works. official status doesn't automagically make it 100% stable either.

Was about to make the same observation, I have just installed this Rom on my note 7 and seems to be bug free so far and even with small differences works just as well as the excellent Pixel expierence by jhenrique09 on my note 5. Give it a go!!

eh my bad, just realised this thread was started a couple of weeks before the initial pe rom thread was started. doesn't really seem to get much updates though.

Yeah, I know we are idiots. All of our releases have been unstable, full of bugs and missing nearly every feature one could wish for. Please excuse us, but we really can't do any better. The fact that all ROMs that are not based off RUUs are CyanogenMod rip-offs should clearly tell you that we just can't get anything right at all.
Very MIUI like.. Looks pretty much like my new Desire... Great job seeing similar running on the Legend..

You guys don't pay attention to the experimental thread do you? Seriously, over 160 attempts at a nightly build and still nothing that performs up to par with ogo2's 2.3.3 Sense UI ROM. Sure his is lacking WiFi AP functionality, but I can live with that.
I love how you call everyone elses' ROM a rip-off of a CM ROM. Get a life guys, no one would attempt to use your builds unless said person was extremely lazy.

I know I'm wasting my time here and I really don't care anyway.
Still I think I have to clarify that I'm not talking about people using some "builds". I'm talking about the source code.
If you want to build a ROM for the Legend (and nearly every other device out there) you've got two choices: Push some files from official releases (RUUs) around and zip them, or compile from source.
As a matter of fact there's no project out there that releases working source code (for anything but Google's official devices) except for CyanogenMod.
Video encoding or decoding? msm* support? Backported code for ancient libcamera, libril and framework support for said ancient libraries? GPS backport or implementation? Kernel backports for Gingerbread? Yeah, good luck finding that somewhere else (no, I don't mean the CAF repositories where we are copying from and giving credit of course).

"Get a life"? Come on, don't be ridiculous.
MD5-sums can be quite revealing by the way. Or boot messages (like "Welcome to CyanogeMod" in MIUI). Some people were even charging for shady rip-offs – that's why the CM team ultimately decided to close down development and switch to "release when it's done".

Sorry, but you didn't understand the concept of a nightly build? There are no "attempts at a nightly build" and they are not even meant for users. Nightly builds are there to see if current code in the repositories still compiles. Nothing else.

Unfortunately not only for the Legend but for most other devices too.
Android was said to be open but in fact it's just proprietary crap again. No developer wants to spend months doing the work of forty CM devs, so they either join CM – or sometimes steal their work declaring it as their own – or use (or combine) binaries from official releases.
If you didn't care, you would be in other developers threads attacking their attempts at making something that just may work better than what you're pushing out.
Face the facts; People want more choices other than CM. I am willing to admit that CM 6.1 was a damn good ROM when it came out, but I can't for life of me figure out why you guys can't live up to the same expectations with CM7.
I have been testing the NewSense 1.0 RC's (HTC Salsa ROM) for some time, and I as I said; Without the lack of AP support, it works well and does not have the crash prone problems that I have seen with 7.0.3, and 7.1 RC1.

You can thanks for that to HTC, because i haven't written a single line of code in NewSense. Only some crappy hacks.
Really, our community is too small and we have a lack of devs, but that's not all. HTC provide to us just ****ty sources. It just sucks!
Btw: this rom here is based on cm7...
Edit: I commented on the wrong ROM. My bad.
I still think Blayo's rom's are the best for Legend!
Been using them for quite a while and I never have had any complain!

Their earlier releases certainly used CM sources with modified framework and apps. I don't know what they are doing now – but as they don't release their sources I can accuse them of using modified CM source code as much as I want without ever being able to prove it so I refrain from doing that.
If you are interested, the UltimateDroid soap opera is a good read by the way.

I'd be happy if they provided the real sources for the binaries they are releasing but as a matter of fact HTC continuously violates the GPL and we can't do anything about that.

Where exactly did I attack emiliano7's work? I'm actually very glad that someone is developing for the Legend and I never stated anything else.
You obviously on the other hand couldn't resist showing your arrogant attitude by addressing the CM team in this thread making false accusations. You can't take a discussion off-topic and then blame others for taking the same train.

Instead of making vague accusations you could have filed bug reports a long time ago. CM is a community project and nothing without its community.
It sometimes still makes me sad that for some people whining doesn't seem to be a problem but as soon as it comes to writing a good bug report they come up with various excuses.

Best ROM for daily usage?

hello,
i bought a mi5 with 32gb for my mum. at the moment she has a Motorola phone with quite to vanilla android.
i dont want to change the OS to miui for her. so i intended to flash mokee 71 (cm 14.1 based). but a read a lot about bad camera with cm roms and i am not sure if its a daily driver.
what rom would you recommend?
They are all the same... Maybe you should go for marshmallow roms... They are really more stable than n...
i bought the phone because i thought all sources are released and officiall CM would work great in any way. now i have read about problems everywhere. i am very unhappy with the device...
If you want nougat, i'd suggest AICP/RR. I've personally had issues with RR and Doze, for some reason the phone is active all the time and bleeds battery. I've seen it go down by 10% in 15 minutes. Although i think this problem is related to me only.
AICP is nice. And Only flash pico gapps. The others hog a lot of resources.
As for marshmallow, CM 13 is good, RR is also good albeit a few bugs, and hasn't been updated since 21st November.
as RR is based on CM i thought there will be more bugs than in pure CM?

try this "cm-13.0-20161211-NIGHTLY-gemini", it is working fine with my mi5.
There is a Snapshot of CM 13 https://download.cyanogenmod.org?device=gemini
i have tried mokee, which id basically a cm14 rom, and its running nice, except the picture quality of the camera.
I have been using XOSP ROM, somehow the screen on time is like 6-8hrs. It is crazy. It seems faster and smoother compared to Miui8 as well
At the moment:
AOSP based:
CHYPER OS --> good battery and youseful features
SLIM --> rock solid, almost plane
JDC AOSP ---> little feature, good battery and camera, good stability
CM based ( i m not a fan of cm roms but this one it's really good)
XENON HD: battery smooth, fast, cm features plus some more, really good battery and no drain.
i m using cache and data formatted to f2fs, for all roms.
CM 14.1 is great except camera quality. I would use that rom for daily use but now I switched to miui eu rom just because i will take full advantage of camera.
If they ever get camera quality even near to miui, I will switch back to CM.
Xosp Record battery life, no lags. Just check it

after a lot of reading i think all non-miui roms have the same bad camera quality as xiaomi has not released drivers/sources for the camera.
this is the first and last xiaomi device i have bought!

The camera quality is quite on par with the Miui ROM on the unofficial Lineage 14.1 builds. It takes time for DEVs to fix bugs in custom ROMs before they can get it to become stable and then, can they actually improve things like camera quality. If you are not willing to wait, then you should always research on the phone and making sure the custom development on that phone is up to what you expect before buying it. The Mi 5 is a superb phone for its price, but trade offs have to be made too. Be glad that there are people who are actually working on making this phone even better. If you can't even appreciate and spare a thought about these Devs when you make such uncanny posts, then I doubt this community will be happy to have people like you over here either! They don't owe you anything for your "mistake" purchase.

thats not what i said. i appreciate the great work the devs do and did. the only thing i dont like is xiaomi's way of acting. xiaomi is always promising to release sources and so on but they dont do it in a proper way.
but i'm happy to hear the devs are on the best way to solve the camera problem.
I'm using the last official CM nightly and find it superb.
Stock camera is only average, but with Footej Camera from the Play store I'm happy with the results.
Just make sure not to install a full Google apps package since some of their apps don't play well with the CM ones. I use the nano package.

So speak out and call out bull**** like this. People who use their ROMs should be appreciative. I'm glad OP isn't one of those insensitive people!
I think the ROMs right now as we speak have suffered major updates, and all of a sudden I have doubts about choosing one instead of another, because if you guys check out the Development section, there's a lot of ROMs in there. We don't have any comparison or debate thread about one guy or so doing a review or brief about each and every ROM. So all threads and posts like this one (about daily usage and so) will only have a statement about current status of the ROMs. The devs aren't magicians, and there will always work to do. Bugs to fix, and features to be implemented. Just be patient.
Right now I'm in doubt of which ROM should I choose, and I hope you guys could tell the difference between each ROM (there's almost 10 different in xda). These are the ROMs available and I really want to know which ROM should I choose. I've currently Lineage OS 14.1 installed.

[ANNOUNCEMENT] New developing team for P8 Lite

Since people say on every rom released with OpenKirin source codes that there are same bugs on every rom, I joined forces with some of my friends and in result=> KirinMixTeam Development, name's not fully decided, so it may change, but that's not important.
The important thing is that we already started working on a new P8 Lite source code: https://github.com/KirinMixTeam/device_huawei_hi6210sft/tree/AOKP-7.1.2 ,there are much more bugs to fix, I'm sure ril will not work on first hand, at least hopefully wifi works.
Our team goal is to develop for as much as we can, and now that I've finnaly repaired my computer I have 2TB of free space to develop on.
Reminder: Do not take our team as a rival to OpenKirin or haky86, or any other developers, we do not want to do that, take this as some good news that P8 Lite will get even more developers to work on its platform and others!
Also, since for now we're just 3 members in the team, maybe one of you want to get in. PM me or @AymenDe7 for further information, but if you think you are not ready for this please do not fill our inbox worthless.
P.S. Do not overhype already, wait until at least a bootable rom to be sure that our source code works. Tommorow I'm already testing first build of AOKP 7.1.2, so we'll keep you updated!
Thank you.:good:
Wow so P8Lite isn't dead
Nice news !!
I just want to get a stable rom that consists no bugs, and as stable as huawei's stock firmware. I've tried all of the custom roms and there are lots of annoying bugs such as,
slow and laggy interface,
poor app performance
720p 60fps playback issue
headset issue,
low download speeds on my mobile network etc. etc.
I've now converted back to stock and unrooted firmware, I will be waiting and checking for a %100 stable custom rom. good to see you're determined to make a good rom, good luck and thank you.

Nor OpenKirin roms nor haky86's are slow, they get almost all of them 30K in antutu. Problem with 720p 60fps is related to codecs, but I don't know what causes the headset issue.

Good news, best wishes!! ✌
I learn how to upstream kernels, not helpful for you, but eh maybe i will question some things in the future.
Thank you so much for your support!
For your interest, but not interesting, I'm already compiling AOKP 7.1.2 for Nexus 6P. After that will get back to P8 Lite.
wait wait best ROMs kkk
Guys dont take me wrong if any of you are willing to try ROM building but cant do it due to various reasons like Computing power or HDD space or slow Internet speeds etc.., . Here is the best alternative even a small mobile is enough to build the ROM.

@XTutorials
I wish you luck but in my opinion you (and we as community) should focus on fixing bugs in OpenKrirn's source rather than making a new ROM from scratch
Actually on their nougat we just need video recording, 60fps videos (here emui 4.1 kernel and blobs can fix this I think), GPS and deepsleep to have a fully functional ROM (I don't count dual SIM).
HWC is unfortunately a different story...
That's the best option, we don't want other roms, we want fixes for current ones, like thst cpu fix... Maybe GPS, deepsleep, wifi fix etc

How it is said, better do it slowly than doing it fast and bad.
I know you really want asap a fully-stable ROM, and we put a lot of effort in doing that. Expect a booting ROM in 1-2 weeks from now.
Thank you for understanding!

Pls don't get me wrong I know it's hard to develop on this phone (and we don't pay you for it) but you will probably also have problems with your project (maybe even the same as OpenKirin and XePeleato when there was no OpenKirin yet). What's the reason of doing the same job again?

Well, I'm working for the first time source codes ( working seriously, not just edit BoardConfig and other .mk's) and I need some practicing and learning, so first ROM will come out harder, if you let me practice and learn then I will fix bugs and build roms faster.
Thank you.

LOS 15.1

I don't mean to be that guy, but i was wondering if anyone was going to bring plain old lineage 15.1 to the Mix. I see all these new oreo roms, with both aosp and los bases, and while they are intriguing, I'd prefer to stick with the tried and true, the most well supported, and thus the most stable custom rom for android.
Ah... I haven't any right to be impatient. I appreciate the work thus far. Just a wish.
I moved away from Lineage since AICP is basically LOS + their extras, and frankly I was building it for myself to begin with. I assumed the AICP/LOS maintainers would already have put out Oreo builds by now. I always found AICP and RR (although it's mostly AOSP-based) to be every bit as stable as LOS, and any bugs they had would almost always be inherited from it. The only app that isn't working in AICP/RR that I'm aware of is the default Music app. There aren't any apps crashing or random reboots or anything else that you'd normally associate with beta ROMs (aside from the TWRP issues that some have reported).
It doesn't look like RR is going to have an official maintainer for the Mix so I might have that one for the foreseeable future. The AICP guy said that they will be bring Oreo builds soon. If/when they do I suppose I could swap AICP out for LOS, but juggling 3 ROMs is a bit much. Even if I built it, it'd almost certainly have the same TWRP issues with decryption/mounting data that my last AICP/RR builds had. Hopefully Hen Ry will migrate to Oreo ASAP.

I´ll build it for you tomorrow. stay tuned!!!
Didn't necessarily expect the outpouring, but it is appreciated. Ive heard alot about aicp, and its rock solid composition. In theory id like to switch, but i perhaps have an irrational attachment to LOS. Been running custom roms for 7 years now and I'm not long for much experimenting, though i should probably do a bit more.
Ha, no pressure at all, but it would be cool to see LOS 15.1 in official or unofficial capacity. Gavin especially, you've put in alot of work, so dont take it too seriously. Just voicing a thought. Thanks guys.

Thanks bro!
I don't have time to test tonight, but I'll let you know how things turn out tomorrow. Perhaps someone else can chime in before that too.
Also, you may want to consider opening an unofficial thread for 15.1 in the development section if all is well. I can't be the only holdout for LOS 15.
Once again, thank you
Haha... Ha...
Tried it, works like a charm.
HOWEVER, the twrp issue, encryption, 0mb data even though the settings in 15.1 state that the rom is not encrypted, that's been plaguing all oreo roms reared its ugly head. Typing this on my trusty oneplus one because i utterly botched my mix. Whew. I know better. Still, it hurts.
Until the twrp and encryption issues are figured out, i think this'll be a major stumbling block. Even so,thank you for your work.
Man am i dumb...

Re: twrp issue, what version are you using ? Same problem with RR oreo? Is proximity working on this rom?
Sorry, didn't test long enough to find out. Chickened out at the first sign of trouble. I really cant have my phone down for too long.
As for the twrp, its an older version, smarty twrp based on 3.0.2.? I believe it is the only other version of twrp beyond raines that doesn't have the touch screen issues if not matched perfectly with the rom. It flashed oreo, but it wouldn't mount any partitions after flashing oreo. Had to format everything. Should've anticipated that, but id been drinking.
Oh well.
From whay ive seen, i have no reason and had no expectation of proximity working here,as this is the base for other roms with non-working proximity. Those that have downtime to spare can confirm.

The MultiROM and raupe builds are both newer and have working touch. I've been using this one for ~6 months (unencrypted) and never had any issue with the Oreo ROMS (PE/RR/AICP and Cardinal).
The proximity mention was because they stated that they had fixed the issue.

Cheers man..next time dont drink and flash roms lol..kidding aside..well i asked about proximity since the dev mentioned that he found the solution to the proximity issue on other oreo roms....
What good is it if everyone creates a ROM and they all have the same sources?
I have already created a LOS build, but no proxi and partition is
"Encrypted".

Well if built from same sources possible no difference at all..anyway, may i know if what twrp you are using? Thanks hen ry and eagerly waiting for your official oreo los based rom.
I know im not a pro dev , im starting to it but hey...we all have started from zero so..ill try my best to keep Mi Mix updated (the proximity sensor fix is not mine , the user that fixed it don't want to share with me so sorry for that) , as I don't know which sources are the best I just use the ones that the other devs used .

The average user doesn't care or know about sources. Sure, PE/Cardinal and AICP/RR could be twins, but more choice is better than less.
The whole reason that myself and albertoduqe started building Oreo ROMs is because no one else was doing it. Sure, some of them might be very similar, but to the end users most ROMs are 95% identical anyway. All it takes is for one ROM to have some minor config option or theme or whatever and that's enough to make someone choose it over the next one that's 99% the same under the hood. Also, if one or two of us move on to another device, like papps did, then there will still be one or two around to keep putting builds out.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't almost all ROMs out there based on either LOS or AOSP anyway?

Just LoL. No other words.
Don't drink and flash, truer words never been spoken.
On the TWRP, I was aware when i was forced to reformat, but i didn't want to go down that rabbit hole again,not in that condition. Now that its down and im sane again, i suppose i could really mess with it. Ive reached the acceptance phase of loss.
Ill try those newer versions of twrp when i have some time, its a bridge ive needed ti cross, now more than ever.

100% Agree to your point Gavin. Being a flashaholic user, the more ROM to try the merrier.!!! Its regardless of the sources. To devs who are devoting their time trying to build a new ROM i salute you all. You all know who you are. We are all glad that you keep the flame burning for Mi Mix! Keep it up Devs.....
The major issue I ran into when flashing the build posted here is that I cannot flash magisk. An issue with mounting the vendor partion arises in that part of the workflow, ending in Error 1.
Beyond that, the temporary solution to the 0mb issue is to reformat your data to f2fs in recovery, specifically the one Gavin posted here. I no longer have any issues after first boot. A little more on my experience here. But this confirms it working on two oreo roms for me now, and I expect the rest will run too.
In my expanded testing, I couldn't get proximity to work..., but everything else ran fine for the most part. Ill have to wait until the vendor partition mounting works to continue on as root is a requirement for me, and magisk is the best supported at this time.

Flasholic problems

hi there, i got mi 9T pro with EEA, i used to have a oneplus phone, i wanted to have a stable and fun time with the phone, i flashed lot of roms but at the end of the day i flashed other rom and keep going on this cicle, currently i dont know for real what to do sense idk if i can trust custom roms for daily driver has basic stuff might become broken , i am currently using xiaomi.eu stable, but i miss the lack of smothness and customization tho, i love the device but software side not so much, what can i do? really would like a opnion, what rom should i use for flash and forget?, what if the dev abandons the rom what can i do then?

You have an ORD as much of us here. The only cure (if there's such thing) is using an apple phone. Many already did that, but after some time they bought again an Android. What I do, I use only Los currently Los 17.1. No major bugs, a good daily driver. I can't use anything than aosp for much time, in this case miui ROMs. At the time the devs abandon this device you probably already bought alot of other devices, so don't bother about ROMs support for this device. Check for help here instead.
