You must be on 010 ColorOs firmware to use this rom. If you are on a newer version of ColorOs and hvae problems with things like wifi you can flash the firmware from that version with the zip file in the optional extas post (post#3)
1. You must unlock your bootloader using magictricks.zip supplied by @uberlaggydarwin.

Screen off yes screen on no. I might do some screenshots at some stage but its just stock cm13, they all look the same. Its only a beta testing version, still a lot of real work to do on it before I worry about things like that.
Thank you! So this is the problem that I've had when I use the rom:
- Sometimes I cannot unlock the lock screen settings to reset the new screen lock.
- The Camera app sometimes will crash when I try to record.
- The battern drain is quite fast. (as you mentioned)
Other than these, I think the rom is really great.. :good:
Do we have to install old firmware to make wifi work?

Hey
Nice to see development taking place for our oppo f1. Thnx fr ur hard work
I just wanted to know if VOLTE working?
Thank you
Nice ROM , Thanks!
I found some problems :
-Camera
Crash when I switch from front camera to back camera and vice versa , crash too when I switch from photo mode to video mode and vice versa.
-Battery
Battery drains fast , and the charging time is becoming fast too
sorry for my bad english
Thanks so much you two for giving this's phone hope.
I was having the same problem with battery life. Maybe 2 hours from 100-0 then miniblu suggested. Turn off all the settings in display and lights that would drain power. Yesterday I got 12 hours out of it with lite usage . The battery expected life in setting isn't correct so don't trust the expected time (it drains to 80% in like 30 min then the rest can last another 12 hr on lite usage).
-little bugs I've noticed- camera app was a bit buggy first time I opened it up. (Reboot fixes it)
-when u leave to camera app what was left on the screen is your wallpaper for 2 seconds.
I can use this phone no problems everyday. I would recommend to anyone. Just make turn of any unessasary settings in screen off and it's prefect. I found nothing else wrong with this rom.
Thanks so much for this Minblu and uberlaggydarwin
This seems like the best place to ask:
Optus in Australia released a network locked version of the Oppo f1f with some startup/shutdown branding for a reduced cost. They also disabled the second SIM slot that this phone has in other countries.
My question is, could the ability to use the second SIM slot be activated by using a custom ROM such as this one, or is it more likely that Optus have crippled or possibly even removed the actual components from the handset?
Thanks, and thank you for the development effort you're putting in to this. I look forward to trying it out over the weekend.
Audio crackling sound
Thank you very much for the effort and time that you put in making this rom possible.
I have a question.. is anybody else experiencing audio problems when using headphones or earphones? There's like a crackling sound while I'm listening to music.
Yeah. Go into audiofx and turn down the bass or vitualizer until it doesn't make that noise anymore?

I've already tried it but it didn't work. There's still this annoying sound like static. I thought it was the phone so I reverted back to coloros but when I tried, the sound is back to normal so I'm guessing it must be a bug in the cm13 rom.

One last question please does VoLTE works with this rom?
Problems
-Camera crash and maybe not connected
-CPU always run full load (very bad problem)
-battery drain (because cpu full load always)
-more heat (because of cpu too )
-screen backlight always on when i turn off charging
-often Battery not +℅ when i turn on charging
-in choose manual network menu not show 4g signal for select
-cpu hotplug not support in cpu tuner apps
And everything is fine :good::good::good:
This rom better than project spectrum because can boot in to twrp recovery
I hope you will fix all problems
And port rom to cm14-14.1 soon
-----------------
Sorry for my bad English
It so awesome!!!
I've been waiting for this on my f1 , a cyanogenmod 13..thank you so much MiniBlu and of couse @uberlaggydarwin the great developer...i will install it in this weekend..thanks a lot again!!!!:good:

It's to do with the digital mixers distorting the sound as it boosts it. In system/etc/ there is a file called mixer_paths_mtp.xml, where you can edit volumes through the speakers and headphones. A quick fiddle around with RX values makes it slightly better, but it's still there.
This is an independent thread to collect and share all roms and mods for our Ulefone Metal device.

@zgfg
I haven't started a separate thread because it is an unofficial port based on cm13 + TeslaOs . I am looking for some guys to help me kill bugs . I am not a developer but used a guide for porting mtk roms by Sandeep.Sethi plus his personal help to get it to boot . I need help because i don't know how to fix some major bugs and i use my phone daily .I want to learn to port because I am interested in porting MM roms like aicp + rr + teslaOs but it seems tje recognized developers are focusing on NOUGAT and aosp + cyanogen. Apart from Sandeep and a couple of other mtk porters I have been met with silence when asking for help. I can't create a thread dedicated to the rom because it is a project which isn't ready for release but rather just something for the brave to try out and possibly fix major bugs . I tried porting a RRemix rom the wkend from lenovo note but bricked my phone . I am waiting for about 3 guys who own metal phones and want to learn to port to create a team with me so we can kill bugs and get help from the experienced guys but these guys are or all too busy or just not forth coming with any info on patches or they just don't want to share their hard work . I have found porters are friendlier and more open with advice . Hope that answers your questions .
I will try to do more this weekend .

Battery Drain
I almost gave up on this phone due to massive battery drain even in aeroplane mode with most apps killed. While CM13_Metal_BetaTest_1 with DarkSense kernel wasn't too bad, I decided to give the stock ROM 20161226 a try, but with many disabled or removed apps and services. I was able to disable normally only a few apps of interest:
Gmail
Google App
Maps
TalkBack
Others had to be deleted in TWRP. Mount 'system' and remove (or move):
/system/app/AdupsFota
/system/app/AdupsFotaReboot
/system/app/Email
/system/app/Google TTS
/system/app/LocationEM2
/system/app/Schedule power on & off
/system/app/Shly...//ALL of them!
/system/app/User Dictionary
/system/app/Voice Command
/system/app/VoiceUnlock
Screen Off Standby Power Drain Now:
Aeroplane mode, 12hr: 83-->82%
SIM 3G network, 12hr: 81-->79%
Note on the attached screenshot the rapid power drop from 100%. There is something wrong with software or hardware of the power gauge and it is best to start testing from below 90%. One or more of these apps is responsible for the massive power drain. It would be interesting to find out exactly which one.
I hope you will find my experiment useful. Please share your observations.

Eragon +( same as above )
Cm13 by Lucky76
Cm14 by Johnny
Aosp 7.1.1 by M.A.D
and tbh they all run okayish with a medium amount of tweaking and start throwing errors with heavy tweaking
i abandoned stock because it always seemed as if the phone just got worse as time went on .....i deleted the apps you mentioned and many more after doing a lot of forum searching
my phone gave me trouble after deleting locationEM2 and I had to restore at some point .
im running aosp 7.1.1 by M.A.D again and after a clean install and using these GAPPS as suggested I've been rather content with battery life , calls , home button, etc..
Sony Mobile is committed to supporting the open developer community, and one way to show this is by publishing parts of our code as well as selected tools developed by our internal developers.
For some of the Xperia™ devices, we provide Android™ Open Source Project (AOSP) device configurations on GitHub. This means that the software will be open for you as a developer to use and contribute to. This is a way for us to support the open Android community, and it is also a tool for us to facilitate and verify contributions to AOSP.
If you want to build AOSP for your unlocked Xperia device, you find all the resources you need in the sections below.

Does it also mean that the official firmware from Sony will be updated with this new kernel?
I am not a developer but built it following the guide using the sources since a few months back. Boots and runs. Even used it for a time. But couldn't get fingerprint sensor to work properly. When I used 8.0 branch it was working but very slow and roughly. (Nowhere near the sensitivity of the stock rom) now with 8.1 branch can't get it register fingerprints. Sensor works, starts enrollment and progresses, but at the last step it gives error. However seems like more sensitive and faster than before. Another problem is the battery drain when idle. When using the phone daily routine not that bad, slightly less screen on time compared to stock but the real problem idle battery drain. %15-20 in 6-7 hours. According to battery starts appears to be related to Google play services which is always a serious battery killer for custom roms for years. Other than these did not notice any serious problems. And all this without any changes or tweaks. Straight from the source. Good job Sony imo.
@maluus Don't know if this also applies to compiling roms, but Sony just (march 8) released a new version (v11) of the odm image, which solves fingerprint enrollment issues you seem to describe for the omnirom 8.1 build:
https://developer.sony.com/file/dow...es-for-aosp-oreo-android-8-1-kernel-4-4-loire
Yeah heard of it. I was using v10 oem image last time. When i get back to home I'll try with v11 and will see if fingerprint issue is solved. If it's ok i can use it as daily as it is. If battery drain problem is solved too it will be pretty much everything i expect.
Vendor v11 is out
https://developer.sony.com/develop/open-devices/latest-updates
battery drain is fixed and new kernel binary will be released today
FM-radio will work someday on kugo in custom roms?
Anyone tried a recent aosp build with v11 binaries yet? Does fingerprint works correctly and accurately? How is the battery life compared to the stock? What is screen on time?
Just installed an AOSP build from March 15th together with v11 binaries and Micro GApps. Fingerprint is working.
And the battery life? I'm home though. I'll be building soon ?

All build guides are updated with the Security updates
https://developer.sony.com/develop/open-devices/guides/aosp-build-instructions/
Here is the list of all known bugs. If you find bugs you can always open a ticket in the bug tracker and we will check it ASAP.
https://github.com/sonyxperiadev/bug_tracker/issues
@jerpelea, do you know if there is a modem binary file for this phone that's compatible with T-Mobile VoLTE in the US? The XZ1C has a compatible file (amss_fsg_lilac_tmobile_us_ims_tar.mbn). The stock ROM doesn't, but I'm trying to get VoLTE working and this file would certainly help (if it exists).
Last night I built again. First thing I noticed is how well fingerprint reader works. It's like stock. Congrats to the devs for good job. Camera including video recording and Bluetooth works. But camera seems 1-2 mm smal from sides. Charging issue persists. As Harry pointed 3 amp chargers doesn't work. I tried 2 other chargers. 2.1 amp charger work normally. But 1 amp charger starts do disconnect and connect again after 43-44%. (I'll share the logs with devs) Another problem I noticed is that I can't root with magisk. Tried ver 16, 17 and 18. I can flash from twrp without error but when the device boot up neither Magisk manager is installed nor device is rooted. I did not try with supersu. Another thing to mention is that device boots up pretty slow. Boot crash still happens sporadically.
PS: Supersu works. Sometimes device lags heavily. I noticed especially on chrome and some banking apps.
PS 2: Sharing logs. (Includes 3 amp charging attempt and 2.1 amp charging)
little off, very very basic question, and I could not seem to find the answer.
I understand how to set up a build environment and build an image to the phone, but how about the developer.sony.com latest section binaries?
are they already built images? how will it be different if I build mine following the instructions?
Cheers,
You'll build rom first then you still need to flash that binaries too. They are not alternatives to your home build rom. They are part of the os which you won't be able to homebrew, for your device to work properly.
Dear Fellow Whyred Users,
I am opening this thread to discuss and get views from you in terms of a Stable & Least Buggy ROM (+ kernel) for Whyred 4GB/64GB device
It is more like an on-going discussion so that all can refer to and ask/share queries/comments/feedback and hence putting in this forum and not in Q&A.
Now to allow focussed discussion sharing some baseline requirements
1) By stable means - no random reboots, no crashes, should be good for daily use with Google Apps, GCam etc
2) Least Buggy - may be some small bugs here and there but should be known in advance (if see that these days for all Custom ROM bugs list is blank even when there are few known bugs reported & hence clearly known)
3) It's OK if the ROM is not having the latest security patches (ideally should be updated) but the key requirement is having balanced (battery backup & performance)
Now, yes Custom ROM offers lot of benefits and it is a boon to come out of MIUI trap as well as allows us to experiment and experience new features. But then it does break a few things here and there and also brings uncertainties.
So, for this thread, ok to even share experiences with MIUI (obviously modded one with all ads/****s removed) as well as the whole plethora of Custom ROM.
Request fellow users to share their experience with at least the following details:
ROM Name & Build Date:
Custom kernel Name & Build Date (if any):
Using Since:
Bugs if any:
Concerns if any:
Overall experience:
Reserved 1
Example for sharing your experience of ROM , pls quote this thread and edit !
PS: Mine is not a recommendation as not happy
ROM Name & Build Date: Xiaomi.eu Stable 10.3.4 (Android 9)
Custom kernel Name & Build Date (if any): Agni Kernel v8.7 Stable EAS
Using Since: May 2020
Bugs if any: None observed
Concerns if any: Lately phone seems very slow, performance below par. Reboot/clean cache helps for few days but again same problem
Overall experience: xiaomi.eu has been a good ROM for last 1.5 years, but with latest build seems to be an issue. Will try fresh format once, else change
Calling out fellow users to spare a few minutes and share their thoughts

@mGforCe
I was recommended to use PixelExperience which was the first and only custom ROM I have flashed so far since unlocking the bootloader (I only acquired the phone last month). I went with the Pie version of the ROM,
PixelExperience_whyred-9.0-20191211-2037-OFFICIAL
Stock kernel (the one that came with the ROM), no random reboots, no problems, no issues whatsoever.
I might one day or some day flash Omni / Paranoid since I'm a big fan of both and have used them over the years. Maybe you could try those?
@mGforCe
ROM Name & Build Date: Xiaomi.Eu Beta 20.3.26 (Android 9)
Custom Kernel Name & Build Date: Using Stock Kernel (perf 4.4.153-perf+)
Using Since: March 2020 (Since Date of Release)
Bugs: None
Concerns if Any: Well u cannont Run WCC2 Game if its downloaded from another website (other than play store)
Overall Exp.: I've been using Eu ROM Since january 2020 and i haven't seen that much stable ROM till now. Even the MIUI 12 Beta builds are not that stable (They have high RAM Usage). I will strongly recommend this ROM For the best MIUI 11 Exp.
Peace
@mGforCe
ROM Name & Build Date: MIUI 10 [xiaomi.eu Beta 9.9.3] (Android 9)
Custom Kernel Name & Build Date: Stock Kernel (perf 4.4.153-perf+)
Using Since: September 2019 (Since Date of Release)
Bugs: Completely Stable
Concerns if Any: None so far, in nearly 1 year time.
Overall Exp: This has always been my go to ROM, when I want the perfect balance between performance and battery backup (seen last 8 hours of SoT and 40 hours of standby on it)
-- 1 -- One of the biggest reason why I never switched to MIUI 11, was because it was basically MIUI 10 with some extra tidbits that I could live without. The extra animations and updates just made the whole thing slower and consumed more RAM. For me, MIUI 10 last beta does the job perfectly. Good battery life and spare RAM (1.4-1.5 / 3.0 GB).
MIUI 12 has some major animation issues and spare RAM drops to 0.9-1.1 / 3.0 GB; would not advice anyone to update to that version. Waiting for RevOS [MIUI 12 Android 10 port] to get a bit more stable, might switch to that; as they seemed to have a good RAM management.
-- 2 -- I tried out Havoc, Pixel, Lineage and Corvus. Out of all the 4 ROMs; I'd say Corvus is pretty good. Havoc is nice and refined, but in terms of features, Corvus is the better one. But, what stops me from switch to custom roms is the battery life and slight heating issues. It might be due to kernels, but compared to MIUI 10's 5-6% battery consuption, custom roms eat up around 14-15%. Plus, during idle load, MIUI 10 drops down to as low as 32 C while lowest I seen on Corvus was around 35-36 C. They might have gotten better. Might need to test them out again before I can give a final say on it.
-- 3 -- After using MIUI, you get used to few sweet features it offers. Few of them were the volume panel, per app network settings, the app auto start control toggle and lastly the recent app menu. Paranoid Android did a wonderful job of bringing the first 2 feature to custom stock roms; sadly the other two features still remain unavailble. Hopefully someone will be able to create those.

Thanks @Renz1er for the detailed feedback, very helpful.
Few questions if you may answer:
1) Did you try any subsequent build of Xiaomi.eu MIUI 10 betas and still found this best? Or you never tried any further MIUI 10 or MIUI 11 because of info about extra RAM consumption?
Reason for asking because fellow user @Sidgup1998 suggested Xiaomi.Eu Beta 20.3.26 (MIUI 11) and so checking.
2) Further, you mention RevOS and so checking if you tried any other MIUI Mods like MiRoom etc?
I also googled and found one Official RevOS - tried anytime? ROS-MIUI_RedmiNote5_20.2.26_v11-9.zip
The problem (probably biggest) I've faced with Corvus Os is the mobile data connection. Sometimes if u disconnect and then reconnect, it won't connect until u restart/ Change network type 4g/3g/2g (I used this method).
Otherwise Best Aosp Rom is Corvus as it has my favourite One Plus Navbar Option

I tried out almost every single beta build and stable build for MIUI 10, and this one particular seems to hit the sweet spot. In terms of features offered from MIUI, performance and stability.
For MIUI 11, I just tried few earlier beta builds and some one of the stable builds. They were stable, but like I said, the ram usage and a bit more system animations kept me away.
For MIUI 12, I tried the very first beta build and the last beta build, both had bugs and issues.
-- 2 --Tried Xiaomi.EU Android 10 Port, Masik X Android 10 Port and RevOS Anroid 10 Port. All 3 of them are more of less very similar, just RevOS has bit more free space because it removes a few of MIUI system apps and a bit more free RAM compared to official Android 9 MIUI 12.
But the main issues with these ports are higher temperature, battery backup being a bit worse and the camera libs might not be whyred's so might see a bit degradation in quality.

Thanks for the detailed revert. Clearly noted cons of going with MIUI 11 and MIUI 12
Now, coming back to MIUI 10, what I gather is that xiaomi.eu beta 9.9.3 is essentially last best of MIUI 10 and then the next weekly beta takes to
MIUI 11
Basis same, I tried searching a bit and came across two further ROMs : Mi-Room and Revolution OS
They both having beta builds, my guess based on same last MIUI 10 weekly beta, the release time is closeby to xiaomi.eu (beta 9.9.3)
xiaomi.eu_multi_HMNote5Pro_9.9.3_v10-9.zip 2019-09-05
Mi-Room RedmiNote5_MIUI_9.9.3_MiRoom_9.0.zip 2019-09-06
ROS-MIUI_RedmiNote5_9.9.21_v10-9.zip 2019-09-11
So, was wondering if worth trying anyone of them?
Also nowhere I see any comparison of Mi-Room vs Xiaomi.eu vs RevolutionOS. Do you have any insights here?
I will suggest Pixel experience plus ROM
Build : June 13
Have been using it from last two days and it's pretty stable
I'm getting 7+ hours of SOT
Play Store is certified so no need to install magisk
Video recording is not working with included Mi Camera but you can resolve it by installing Google Camera
I'm Using Google camera 7.3
Omfg guys ... Can you find more unsupported and buggy ROMs??? ?
Did someone try official LOS 17.1 ???
Almost bug free some minors bugs but ROM is rock solid and you'll get weekly OTA.
Some pixlesh*t buggy ROM is not what my grany can use as sound is crapy as hell and others bugs (WIFI, 4g, volte, etc). I tried many of them except MIUI crapware, adware,etc ROMS.
And I always come back to LOS ROMs official or unofficial.
But on the end, decision is up to you.
Good luck and stay safe.
I've tried LOS, the main concern is the constant Signal Drops which ultimately lead to poor signal reception.
I am having these issues in the latest build ( 29/6)
That's why I always come back to MiUi

Khmm, in almost every of yours posts on XDA forum you have always some weird problems and no one else have and can't be reproduce.... Last quote is from MIUI ROM thread.:laugh:
You are clearly doing something wrong. What firmware do you have? Did you clean install ROM ( advanced wipe -> system, data, cache, dalvik, internal storage)?
Is your persist partition OK?
How is your changing fingerprint going? :laugh: (under LOS 17.1 thread is your answer):good:
You can PM me and I'll try to help you to narrow down your problem. As I said official LOS 17.1 is the most stable ROM at the moment.
Note to all:
Try to avoiding gapps cr*pware. Use FLOSS stores like f-droid and if you still can't live without google spyware apps use Aurora Store (aka google store but its open source) from XDA lab apps store.
And I'm sorry for this off topic post :angel:.
Good luck and stay safe.
@drnightshadow my Eu problem was solved as the new feature implemented by Miui 12 was unknown (they by default changed the imei, simcard response to blank response) and many people were facing the problem
This was a common problem but people didn't knew how to describe

Nice work brother, as I see you are new in ROM developing.
Let me give you some advice:
- Use CM12.1 as a base ROM because 4.4.4 is getting discontinued (you can use mine, it has bugs but can use as a daily)
- Install Greenify, this'll save a lot of battery
- Install open-sourced apps as an alternatives for closed-source apps.
For example: Youtube's alternative is NewPipe/SkyTube Legacy
F-Droid is an alternative for Google Play
Also, I'm planning to make a custom kernel for the J1. Can you be a tester if I can ask you?
i want to delete that reply

Way to go @Mihot7Forever ! ...
Here's something i'd like to share with anyone interested in running almost any J100H CM12.1 ROM on J110H j1pop3g... It's a workaround to make the ROM run on J110H, but for sure you'll find many bugs and lags.. It's a workaround for experimental purposes not for reliability or daily usage.
Get the J100H CM12.1 ROM you wish to run on J110H (like for instance version 2 up here ^^^ ), then add the contents of the zip file attached to the ROM and replace the ones inside... and use the attached boot image file when needed...
Special thanks to @smiley9000 and @notnoelchannel for their efforts, I just collected their work and zipped it in a file!
