For Oppo A5s Users - Android General

this phone is so so unlucky because of these:
1. there is no custom rom for this phone whatsoever
2.since this phone is treble enabled it can run gsi rom but the problem is it only runs aonly variant so u can't get android 12+ and even though there is an android 11 a only variant it will not work trust me i tried all of them, also the only acceptable experience is android 10 but u can't use google apps because they will slow down the system so bad
if only android 8.1 gsi rom worked really well it will be worth the effort but ur not gonna have a good experience with it because it has a bug that makes the device reboot suddenly everytime u do something
3. even if u were able to get a great experience with a certain gsi rom u'll still lack a lot of features like face unlock,fingerprint, bad brightness, no headphone jack support and no double tap to wake (there is a way to fix the brightness and the headphonejack but that's it)
In Conclusion, if u analyse the pros and the cons of rooting this device and trying to get rid of that stupid coloros 5.2 version, then u'll see that it's not worth the effort
Let's just hope someone will make a custom rom for this phone but it's like 99% unlikely since there is no source code for it
if u have a solution to any of these problems, please don't be shy and show us the way
and if u have any questions reply to this thread and i'll reply if i know the answer

Did you try the dotOS gsi rom? I was planning to install in my oppo a5s if it's worth it

Miui 8 on Mi 4C

Hi guys!
I installed yesterday Miui 8 alpha from here: http://en.miui.com/thread-295006-1-1.html
ATTENTION!
This will be locked your bootloader!
I tried the recovery image, but it didnt work. I flashed first stable miui 7 from eu.miui than got I drecly a system update to Miui 8.
Unfortunately it's still based on android 5.1.1.
Here are screenshots.
How is Battery life... SOT? Thank you!
I dont know. I didnt so much used. Now Im back to sMiui. But I think its not beter than sMiui.
I use xiaomi.eu version which doesn't lock bootloader. Everything works well...somewhat. Back camera got downgraded features (only 720p max?), front camera can still record 1080p. Battery life, SoT and RAM consumption are similar to 6.5.26. I enable the battery saver, though. Plus only some apps are allowed for full background processing. I'm sticking with it, next updates should be better.
I'm using MIUI8 for nearly 24 hours now and I'm quite satisfied. Have not recognized heavy bugs (not even small ones).
The battery life seems to be similar to MIUI7 builds and worse than CM13.1 from TeamSuperluminal, which I used over the past few months.
I've been using first version of MIUI 8 from the first day it came out, on xiaomi.eu and I haven't got any issue what so ever. I find it works well, no bugs on my type of use so far. The thing is I don't find a significant change over Miui7... Do you guys? Generally speaking. There are a few functions on sharing that are diferent but it isnt something you should worrie about to hurry up updating.
My suggestion for everyone is that if you are in Miui7 (whatever stable or dev version) dont feel you are loosing something without having version 8... it is almost an appearance thing only changes. I'm not dev so i dont actually know what changes in the inside code and stuff, just speaking over a consumer and tester view.
If there is some devs who can tell what important changes are made over I would appreciate.

what i feel is xiaomi added new theme to MIUI 7 and brand it as MIUI 8.
Nothing significant, everything same as MIUI 7.
totally agreed, i had some overheating and touch issues btw
I'll wait Miui8 on android MM for Mi4c before installing that...
Hi! Please help me out
I will receive my new Mi 4c with the Bootloader Unlocked from the re seller , Rooted and with Multi language ROM.
Do I have to unlock the bootloader with the official method (which means flashing Cina Dev ROM -to re lock the bootloader- and go on with the Xiaomi's code procedure..) or it is possible to get all things done by choosing an unofficial weekly miui.eu international ROM and install it normally from the Updater app as soon I get my device but also be able to update it every week via Updater without issues?
My problem with flashing is that I don't have my laptop and the one I have now runs win xp.
If your MI4C is rooted you can install Flashify. With Flashify you can flash TWRP. Then you can download any desired rom and install that from TWRP.
No need for a computer.... unless you brick your phone at some point.

First, just see first if you can access to the recovery rebooting with Vol button pushed.
What's your rom version.
Hi! it's been a while since I made this post and I've changed the MI4C with a Mi4... thanks anyway! Best!

Choosing the right rom

Hey guys, i hope it's okay to write the question here.
So basically in a couple of days my 360h period ends and i can finally unlock the bootloader and root the phone.
My problem is, its been a while since i used something else as lineageos, and to make it even harder the note 6 pro has this notch (which seems to be a problem for some roms?)
So my question is quiet simple... which rom should i use for best performance and no notch issues?
should i stay with a MIUI rom and try to debloat the stuff like the "whatsapp cleaner"? (i never used Whatsapp for example), just install lineage os (and hope there is no notch issue) or should i go for a project treble rom, where my biggest issue is: what exactly is the huge difference between the usual roms and a project treble rom?
Each rom (official or not) has pros and cons, and each user has individual taste so....
I tried official and beta from MIUI, official and beta from xiaomi.eu, lineageOS 15, Pixel Experience, Havoc OS v2.1 and SuperiorOS
For now I'm using Bootleggers. I like it, but maybe you won't....

Can u plz suggest me best ROM for battery back up for my note 6 pro(tulip) thanks in advance
I tried AEX, crDroid and RR.
AEX is by far the worst. Display doesn't look good and device is slow.
RR has some issues, specially with the notch, battery and performance. Apps freeze a lot.
crDroid is the best. Great performance, great battery life and good notch compatibility.

according to me eu roms for note 6 pro have the best battery backup, they dont come with all the useless gapps like google play book etc so i suggest give eu roms a try. moreover remember customization and battery backup are inversely proportional.
hit thanks :good:

is CrDroid still the best custom rom for n6p? How about SOT, overall performance,... on CrDroid and other roms? Is it worth to switch from stock miui 10 to any of these custom roms? On miui i've 1-2 days of usage at 6-7h SOT....
At the moment, there are a couple choices in terms of roms. At this point there is not really a "perfect" or amazing rom available for this device just yet. I have been testing the "official" and "unofficial" roms and they are decent but they have a long way to go until I would consider using them on a day to day basis. A lot of them have bugs which is a given, considering how relatively new this device is. It would be great to see official support for roms such as Paranoid Android, Lineage OS and Resurrection Remix. But this will take time like everything. If we look at the recovery side of things, we are still trying to get an official recovery which will be essential. From what I have seen TWRP by ATG Droid is probably the 'closest' recovery we have to something the same stability and features seen from an "official" recovery. Take what I have said with a grain of salt, pretty much all of this is opinionated if you did not get the memo.

Custom ROM Choice

Hi , I'm a Galaxy A51 user with 6GB RAM and 128GB Storage. I've been facing alot of lag and freeze and slow animations with Android 11 and the downgrade to Android 10 is no longer possible.
So I'm looking for a stable Custom ROM (Camera , Fingerprints working etc ... ) .
Any suggestions ?
you have a powerhouse.....you should not be facing lag at all so that in itself is weird and yea it could be the os
Custom rom suggestions could be suggestive, why not visit the awesome threads by our devs on here and see which one you like.....thats what xda is about after all.
Your device especially is spoilt for choice with one ui ports and a dev is even planning on android 12 support.
Explore xda....
all in all you asked for suggestions and mine is always lineage os...and i can see your device is supported by the latest lineage 18.1 so unofficial builds are unnecessary but since your device is samsung i would HIGHLY suggest you go for a port (by port i mean those one ui 3.x roms that still give u that samsung look and feel) Lineage strips your samsung completely and i find that to be an injustice cause samsung one ui is quite beautiful and since your device has a port of one ui(unlike mine)....go for it dont go for lineage.
Am a hundred percent sure not all are buggy....and just flash one that catches your eye and give it a spin.

Question Stock or Custom Rom?

Hello Members.
Im new in this Forum. My Name is Danny From Germany and i got a Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro in new for only 199$. After 2 Weeks of using, i really dont like the Xiaomi Stock Rom. It is full of bloatware and crappy ad´s. I followed some instructions and deactivated some of the Ads, but i still get some of them.
I already unlocked the bootloader 1 week ago, because i wanna install a Custom Rom and get rid of that data stealing nonsense crap of Xiaomi. But now im at a point, where i dont wanna make a mistake. My last time flashing is like 10 years ago on my Xperia Play.
I followed the Unlock instruction of this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...11-0-rom-and-root-xiaomi-poco-x3-pro.4267623/
I stopped at 2. Because i have seen, there is now Android 12, that orangefox doesnt work for OTA Updates and i dont get the part how to downgrade from MIUI Global 12.5.4.0 Stable. Or is there maybe a way that i can flash now directly without downgrading?
Could someone pls help me with the decision which custom rom is the right one for me and help me with downgrade it? I read the instruction theme complete, but the last comments were written a long time ago.
The most important things for me are battery life with a good performance and the decision which Apps i want. I would love to have the Playstore and Google Maps, but not the other google apps.
My Poco X3 pro is running AICP 16.1 (Custom ROM) and its working fine with Orangefox (R11.1_0 Stable). and OTAs (every friday) ... as i understand it, there is not spoken of Android 12 but of MUI12, what makes a difference
Thx for the answer. Do i Need to Downgrade MIUI or can i Just flash the Rom? How about Banking? This Phone is gonna be my Daily.

Banking apps working fine with magisk hide.
POCO x3 pro is great with custom roms.
Am using spark os and it's working fine for me.
The only thing you may miss is the xiaomi cmera app, but there is alot of alternatives.
Ich hoffe, dass ich dir geholfen habe.
I was in the same situation as you, it's my first Xiaomi, I advise you to flash a pixel experience rom, you'll feel like you've got a new phone, I flashed pixelextended

Banking apps work fine without Magisk or Magisk Hide. Root is not needed unless you want it for something else.
CrDroid 7/8 are working very well too.
Stable and banking apps are working (inkl. german DKB TAN2GO) !
MIUI CAM is included
Absolutely Custom ROM.
I use OrangeFox recovery on android 12, and no problem here for OTA or storage in recovery mode.
I'm using Latest CrDroid 8.1, just follow the instructions there, and you're good.
Magisk 24 is now working on Android 12 if I'm not mistaken, or you can use the Alpha one.
So far this is the best one for daily use, gaming, and other stuff for me.
Cheers

1- right now no custom recovery can decrypt internal storage, so no OTA update works (only manual via adb sideload in custom recovery)
2- you don't need to downgrade del 12.5.4.0 (that was the latest stable update when op publish his work)
3-twrp (3.6.0_11) is now a stable recovery for vayu.
4- arrow os 12 work great with out root (well, at least my banking apps), but if you need root, there is magisk hide or zygisk...
5- you can flash Vanilla version of custom roms +open gapps pico to have "google playstore" and then install only what you need.
6- battery life is always up to you and your use... there is no magical kernel to give out 87 hours of screen on time...

You can use dfe to keep dencrypt or move files to sdcard\usbotg to flash. If you have a compuer you can also use adb sideload. AOSP recovery should be able to install OTA update. Just flash the .img file in twrp\ofox to recovery partition.
Thanks i will try it tomorrow and give a Feedback.
How warm does your devices get? Mine gets very warm when charging it and even when im using it, it goes Up to 38,5 degrees. Is that normal??

Fast charge will heat up the phone.
Your room temperature will also need to be considered.
Wifi, LTE and video playing/moving gif will heat up the phone as well.
Follow this guide to update ROMs:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/4288121/post-85137963
Note that the dirty flash update of ROM in the tutorial only works with Android 11.
All custom recoveries cannot decrypt Android 12 at the moment, so you cannot see internal storage with custom recoveries on any encrypted Android 12 yet.

Sup people, I've made it a tradition to create a Thread where i keep all my research an benchmarking together in one place. I've done so for the Sony Xperia XZ2, HTC 10, Sony Z2, and Z. The first Android device i used was the Sony Xperia X10i...

If you use it while charging it might even go a little higher.
