ROM which doesn't need GAPPS ? - Xiaomi Mi 4i

Is there any custom rom currently on xda which works fine without flashing gapps ?
I just want to just try to not use any google services. And would like to see its impact on battery life and performance.
Also I am getting a bit paranoid about privacy lately

Any rom will work without gapps. But then you'll need gapps substitute and a signature spoofing supported rom. Flash crdroidv3.0 and enable spoofing from settings then use microG.

Hi,
Thanks for reply, does aospextended have signature spoofing support?. Cause i am using that now and it runs well on my device.
So steps will be
1. Wipe everything
2. Flash a signature spoofing supported rom
3. Boot into rom, turn on signature spoofing
4. Flash microg
ryt?

[GUIDE][PORT] How to install the Android Pie sGSI on your Xiaomi Mi A1

Code:
Disclaimer:
I am not responsible for anything that may happen to your phone as a result of installing this GSI and/or kernels. You do so at your own risk and take the responsibility upon yourself.
MOD EDIT: Remember to be prepared for an experimental or unstable ROM. If do you not know what you are doing or not experienced with flashing and recovering your data then it's not recommended.
REMEMBER TO BACKUP EVERYTHING AS THIS WILL REPARTITION YOUR USERDATA AND WILL WIPE YOUR INTERNAL STORAGE. ALSO, REMEMBER TO READ EVERYTHING AS ALL FIXES ARE POSTED BELOW. DON'T JUST FLASH THEN JOIN TELEGRAM TO ASK WHY THIS DOESN'T WORK FOR YOU.
READ THE IMPORTANT NOTES POSTED HERE​
TO REVERT TO NON-TREBLE/STOCK ROM, WATCH THIS VIDEO BY @GizmoFreak OR FOLLOW THIS POST
Here's everything I can provide to the normal user willing to try this out on their Mi A1.
PLEASE VISIT THIS NOTE TO SEE ALL THE REMAINING BUGS
OR JUST READ THEM HERE
SELinux is permissive
Hw key lights don't light up
Everything else works fine. Just need to update your Google Play services app and you can restore apps via Google Backup (if you didn't already do it with Titanium Backup). Yes, rooting with Magisk works and some modules work as well such as Blobmojis among others.
Here are the steps to install it in your Mi A1 if you're coming from stock ROM
Or watch a video made by @GizmoFreak
Enable Developer options in Settings app
Check Enable OEM Unlocking
Reboot to fastboot mode
Unlock your bootloader
Install TWRP-fastboot only through fastboot boot command (Extract the .img file from the zip)
Flash CosmicDan's TWRP Installer through your current TWRP. Credits to @CosmicDan for his TWRP and @mohancm for official TWRP sources.
Reboot to TWRP recovery
Go to WIPE then ADVANCED then click FORMAT data. This will remove Encryption on your device and allows you to set new passwords when installing the GSI. Note that this will format your internal storage.
Treblelize through TWRP Tissot Manager (Go to advanced, click Tissot Manager and choose the repartition userdata option. Select singleboot option then click repartition)
Flash latest Vendor.img as VENDOR IMAGE
Flash A/B system Pie PR2 img as SYSTEM IMAGE (Extract the .img file from the zip) (special thanks to @dgadelha for the sGSI)
Flash POST-sGSI 1 tissot zip.
Flash POST-sGSI 2 tissot zip.
Flash a treble-compatible kernel (Moun, ProjectK,Velocity)(credits to @mountaser halak, @khusika, @kdragon)
Reboot to system.
Once booted, install the latest Play services linked above either via the Files app or via adb. This will fix the Pixel Setup and Google Backup issues as well as allows you access to the Play Store without problems.
You can now flash Magisk 17.3. This is the version that works properly with treble. Credits to @topjohnwu for Magisk.
Install the Data transfer tool APK update as well.
Special thanks to @erfanoabdi for porting the Pie A/B GSI.
Some features may seem to be broken but can actually be fixed with a few tweaks
USB MTP FIX
To enable USB MTP, enable Developer options in the About phone section of the Settings app by tapping the Build Number 4 times. Then look for the File Transfer option in the Dev options.
ENABLE NAV BAR GESTURES
To enable Nav Bar, I installed this nav bar enabler by @Hugwalk via Magisk.
After rebooting, go to Settings > System > Gesture and enable Swipe Up on Home Button to enable the Nav Bar Gestures.
SUBSTRATUM
Substratum is now much better for Pie.
Install the latest APK from this telegram channel and now all themes with Pie support can be installed.. Just reboot after building the themes and go into managers to enable the overlays you built.

I'm already looking into a fix for Camera. I'll post it once it's available.
What if I want to come back from Android Phone to another Custom ROM? Do I have to "un-treble" the device?

I like the quickstep launcher more because of the swipe down for the notifications gesture etc. Pixel launcher doesn't provide that right?

The zip rom file works great!
Congrats for your efforts dev!
Now if we have an app for the slider to work(like open camera) it would be great
The rom seems very good.....and fluid
Also there is a poco miui cam port for aosp based roms.Already there is mi8 magisk zip.....I dont know if it is easy to work on mi mix 3
Are there any changes from the most recent system image vs. this new Zip?

Thanks for this amazing ROM. It's the first ROM i've used that the fingerprint sensor works flawlessly with only one finged registered. Best ROM i've used so far.

Sorry for request, pico gapps are also good to go ?

Thank you. Will give it a try now.
First attempts without gapps I was unable to boot, always Havoc Logo and back to twrp. Clean flash with your method and with my method.
Both fail (for me), raphael eea.
Then flashed in a row with gapps, booted up fine.
Flashed like always :
AOSP based Rom-Flash with OpenGapps;
1. USB-Debugging, OEM-Unlock and Powermenü in Developer Options.
2. Boot in Recovery and connect Phone with PC.
Safe datas; Systemthings like Sounds etc.., Pictures, Photos, Screenshots etc.
let the connection to PC till after Format Data.
3. Format Data and reboot to Recovery
4. Copy Rom, Gapps and if needed, Vendor-Firmware Paket to the Phone.
5. Disconnect the Phone from PC and wipe cache and dalvik but don't boot.
(6. If needed flash Vendor-Firmware Paket)
7. Flash Rom and Gapps in a row (add more zips) and reboot to OS.
8. Setup System. Set USB-Debugging, OEM-Unlock and Powermenü in Developer Options.
Let rest the Phone for 15 Minutes.
9. Reboot in Recovery, copy Magisk , and the backuped files to phone.
and make a backup z.B. boot.img
10. Flash Magisk and reboot to OS.
With this I wrote ( I'm a little bit older so it is safe) I always go good.
Just installed, seems good, FOD speed and accuracy as miui, awesome!
Thanks a LOT DEV..... @alex9yust

The problem is of the latest versions of the immesity kernel (in some roms the dtw stops working). I flashed the last supermad kernel and dtw works perfect (If you flash supermad kernel, you need to flash magisk again).

[UNOFFICIAL][11] LineageOS 18.1 w/ microG patch for Pixel 4a (sunfish) (20210610)

Introduction
This is my personal build of LineageOS 18.1 for Pixel 4a with the microG patches applied. If you do not want / need to use microG, it may be a better idea to use the official build available here: https://download.lineageos.org/sunfish. This build is exactly the same as the official build except for the microG patch.
For discussion about the official build, please use the other thread instead: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/rom-official-sunfish-lineageos-18-1.4255751/
Installation
Before installation, make sure your phone is updated to Android 11 firmware on both of the slots.
Whether you are installing the ROM for the first time or updating the ROM, please make sure you reboot to recovery again after `adb sideload`-ing the ROM before installing add-ons such as Magisk and GAPPS.
1. Download `boot-XXXX.img` (this contains the recovery needed for initial flashing)
2. Download `lineage-18.1-XXXX-UNOFFICIAL-petercxy-sunfish.zip`
3. Reboot your phone to fastboot mode
4. Run `fastboot flash boot boot-XXXX.img` from your PC
5. Reboot your phone into recovery mode (`fastboot reboot`, then press volume up immediately)
6. Erase data
7. Select Apply Update -> Apply Update from ADB
8. Run `adb sideload lineage-18.1-XXXX-UNOFFICIAL-petercxy-sunfish.zip` and wait for installation to finish
9. If you do not need to install any add-ons (e.g. Magisk or GAPPS), then just reboot into system
10. Otherwise, if you do need to install add-ons, reboot into recovery again (this puts your phone into the recovery of the newly-installed system), then install the add-ons using sideload. If you want to use GAPPS, they must be installed here before you boot into system for the first time (this doesn't apply to microG).
11. Enjoy
Updating
1. Download the newly released zip and reboot your phone into recovery
2. Select Apply Update -> Apply Update from ADB
3. Run `adb sideload lineage-18.1-XXXX-UNOFFICIAL-petercxy-sunfish.zip` and wait for installation to finish
4. If you did not have any add-ons installed before update (e.g. Magisk or GAPPS), then just reboot into system
5. Otherwise, if you did, you need to reboot into recovery again at this point before rebooting to system and re-flash every single one of the add-ons you had before. If you do not re-flash them before rebooting to the new system, the boot will fail and your phone will switch back to the old system automatically.
6. Reboot and enjoy.
Note: You don't need to update official firmware manually while LineageOS is installed by flashing latest official factory images. This LineageOS build now ships with latest official firmware updates which are tested to work with the ROM. Please avoid flashing the firmware manually while LineageOS is installed to avoid unnecessary issues.
Known Issues
- Use Magisk v21.4 or later if you want Magisk
- Some applications require microG to be installed in system partition to function, in which case you can consider using the Magisk microG module
- The eSIM manager only works with either GAPPS or microG installed. Without them, you can use eSIM, but you will not be able to add / remove / rename / disable your eSIM. The eSIM manager will also crash once or twice on first boot without GAPPS or microG, but after that it won't crash anymore (the system automatically disables it until you install microG or GMS)
- Disabling / Enabling eSIM may hang even with GAPPS or microG. However, rebooting normally fixes the issue and makes your action effective.
- I provide no guarantee for SafetyNet status or compatibility with any app that requires SafetyNet. Google has been tightening its SafetyNet verification and there is really not much we can do about it, and frankly most apps that require SafetyNet should not have done so in the first place. If you need SafetyNet, you are on your own.
Downloads
Note: This build has compatibility issues with MindTheGapps (just like the recent LineageOS weekly builds). It will be fixed in newer official weekly builds, but since this build is for microG users, I am not going to upload a new microG-patched build just to work around a GAPPS compatibility issue.
20210610: June 05 security update; sorry for the delay, LineageOS had some issues while merging this month's ASB.
This update also fixed some long-standing bugs, such as the initial crash dialog of the eSIM manager (when GAPPS or microG is not installed), and the extraneous battery percentage option in settings -> battery. Read the LineageOS changelog for the full update.

20210107:
1) Synchronized LineageOS updates and AOSP Jan 5 security patch
2) The ROM now ships with latest official firmware, so you won't need to worry about updating firmware separately (you still need latest official firmware when installing the ROM for the first time though)

Thanks: DirtyUnicorn sunfish contributors, SuperiorOS sunfish contributors, LineageOS coral contributors and the LineagOS community.
After some trial and error I got it up and running. After booting the ROM I returned to recovery, factory reset then side loaded Razorloves micro gapps.
Thanks for the build
Nice! Appreciate the work you've done on the trees!
@PeterCxy what vendor do you use? Can I clone it? Or should I extract myself?
Gave this a shot, everything seemed to loadup fine. Wasn't able to get call screen to show up tho, I flashed razorloves gapps, anything to do to get that to work?

I pushed the vendor blobs I extracted on my GitHub at https://github.com/PeterCxy/android_vendor_google_sunfish, but you can also extract it yourself as I have also pushed my full sunfish-proprietary-files{,-vendor}.txt
This is amazing, thanks @PeterCxy
Where the instructions state to be on A11 on both slots does that mean I can do a flash-all with the latest A11 factory image? Currently on LOS 17

Unfortunately I have zero clue about this, and I don't live somewhere Call Screening is supported in the first place. This would probably need to be figured out by someone other than me :/

Yes you can, but that flash-all script only flashes it on one slot, so to guarantee you have A11 on both slots you'd still need to manually switch the slot and execute that script a second time. The reason why you need A11 on both slots is that the recovery installs the new ROM to the inactive slot, so if the inactive slot is not also on A11, the ROM will probably not boot properly.

You could just sideload the ota after booting the factory image as well.[/QUOTE]
10 hours so far and everything is smooth, great ROM, but I've noticed the battery consumption is less on SuperiorOS, need couple of days to confirm.

Considering call screen doesn't work on other Lineage pixel ROMs, this wouldn"t be any different.
Thank you very much @PeterCxy
I flash-all latest december 11 images and --set-active= slot to other partition and re flashed again. Following the instructions I now have LOS18 with micro-g running. Awesome! I would be interested in any builds with micro-g patches even when/if sunfish goes official LOS
Biometric/fingerprint unlock is not available in any apps like Bitwarden, wirex etc. Has this feature been removed in A11?
I have a working fingerprint and pattern unlock working on the phone, just no options in any usual apps

Do you have Play Services on it? I assume they use the Biometric API for that feature. And I assume that requires Play Services. Or a locked bootloader, some Trust Zone thing... basically it probably isn't designed to work on a ROM that doesn't have some integrity check or secure thingy access.

I don't use play services, but biometric unlock like autofill I think doesn't rely on play services, its part of AOSP? Both my Tab S5e and previous pixel 4a builds were LOS17 with no google services or microg installed and I have Biometric support in all usual apps

hmmm it's also not available in my Keepass2Android. I'll look into this later -- I don't think fingerprint support is part of Play Services.

It might be an issue with the LineageOS source tree when I last synchronized. I checked some of my other devices with LOS built on the same date and they all don't have the fingerprint option available in apps.

I came from this build, https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/lineage-18-android-11-for-pixel-4a-sunfish.4199889/
And there it worked fine
I first installed with MicroG, then went with Gapps, and neither work

[GUIDE] [Universal] How to put together your own CalyxOS with microG

Honestly I was so aggravated at the amount of attention this ROM was getting,
that I just had to make this guide to show how easy it is to get CalyxOS features with the help of LineageOS
Note: This won't be too noob-friendly, so do your research before following this. If your phone catches fire, nothing I can do!
Also I'll be referring to LineageOS for microG as LMM throughout the guide
Safetynet also currently seems to be broken
Pre-requisites before using this guide:​ - A phone ready for custom ROM'ing (unlocked bootloader, custom recovery installed yada yada)
- A user willing to sacrifice 90% Google apps (microG still has it's limitations you know)
- PC with everything ready (just to make the process smooth)
- TWRP backup of your previous ROM (just in case something goes wrong)
Let's begin!
Stage 1: Check and download​1) Check if your phone has official support for LineageOS for microG
2) If it's there; congratulations! Your life has been made 50% easier.
If it isn't, well, you'll have to check if you have official/unofficial ROM support for the standard LineageOS.
If that isn't there, you'll have to go with any other deODEX'd ROM (which means your results may vary compared to the one here)
3) Download the respective ROM zips, Magisk (for root) and Aurora Store.
If you're not downloading LMM, download NanoDroid Patcher (signature spoofing), NanoDroid microG (the microG package)
[Fun fact: If you're using the latest version of Magisk (which you should), rename the APK to "install.zip" to be able to flash it in recovery]
4) Copy the downloaded media to your SD Card (Internal Storage works too)
​Stage 2 Option 1: If you have LMM support​1) Boot to TWRP or your TWRP fork of choice
2) Go to Wipe; Advanced Wipe; Tick System, Data, Cache, Dalvik and swipe # This will format your ROM + your app data
3) Go back; Install; Search for the Lineage zip.
4) Flash it.
5) Then flash Magisk and reboot.
Stage 2 Option 2: If you don't have LMM support​1) Boot to TWRP or your TWRP fork of choice
2) Go to Wipe; Advanced Wipe; Tick System, Data, Cache, Dalvik and swipe # This will format your ROM + your app data
3) Flash LineageOS / your ROM
4) Reboot your system
5) Do the initial setup
-> Check if you have Signature Spoofing support by installing this
-> If there's no Signature Spoofing support:
-> Boot to TWRP
-> Flash NanoDroid Patcher to patch your system
-> Flash NanoDroid microG and Magisk
-> Reboot your system
-> If there is Signature Spoofing support:
-> Boot to TWRP
-> Only flash NanoDroid microG and Magisk
-> Reboot your system
Stage 3: Post-Installation​<If you had to patch signature spoofing; check if it works now in the Signature Spoof checker>
1) Open microG settings app. Press Self-Check
2) Make sure no checkboxes are unticked. If they are, tick them
3) Go back; Add an account, do Device Registration and enable Cloud Messaging.
Also configure the location backends if you need location
4) microG setup should be done!
5) Now install Aurora Store, and configure it. (should be simple enough)
6) Grab yourself a good VPN and a nice wallpaper
[-] That's it!

Mrwhosetheboss for pissing me off enough to make this guide
Of course, if I miss anything, do let me know!
Have a solid day
Thank you so much for this\, I was looking to see if we can add some customizations like doubletouch to sleep and adding / customizing some customizing some quick settings tiles
