Got out of fastboot, went into recovery to install the new update and rebooted. Now my screen won't stop flickering.
Was using an older version of the same ROM earlier, tablet randomly switched off and was stuck at Lineage OS boot logo so re-installed newer version of 14.1. It boots now but can't get rid of that flickering issue.
Thanks.

Good ROM but having problems with audio cutting out mid game...Hope developer can look into and fix..

Incorrect thread for comment above which was for 15.1 LOS.

Going to try 14.1 this evening.

Used to have RR 5.8.5 but had touchscreen issues. Hoping the latest 14.1 fixes this with the updated Synaptics drivers.

My MiPAD was running LOS 14.1 (Stock BLOB). I wanted to flash this LOS 14.1 (shield BLOB)
I took after November ROM (03.11.2018 ) from this thread.
Followed instructions for after November ROM's flashing
My tablet works perfect now !!!

Now coming to my question, i didn't flashed "BootBlobs-SHIELD-mocha.zip" it was mandatory for after November ROM's ????
if it was mandatory how my tablet is working now??
is "TosForPSCI-0.1.zip" is alternative for "BootBlobs-SHIELD-mocha.zip" ?

I remember the day when i flashed my MI-PAD for the first time, i flashed shield blob and tried to install stock ROM.
Telegram group helped me to recover my tablet from that soft brick state.

Any reply?

Root

If I install the rom and flash gapps and flash MAGISK and reboot to system and then make my sd card internal storage will magisk corrupt my sd card because in the XDA thread for magisk it says not to install it on a adoptable storage but I'm not doing that so is it posible

The latest version of LOS 14.1 is the best custom ROM I have used. All good. Thanks to the developer for persisting with this device and keeping it alive.

My experience of other ROM's:

RR 5.8.5 had intermittent touchscreen issues.
LOS 15.1 had intermittent audio issues. with unreliable in game audio.
RR 6.2.1 had no touch functions when installed though it uses the same source code as this ROM. No idea why.

To make it easy just rename the file recovery-03.11.2018.img to rec.img and save it to the adb/fastboot folder.

Put your mipad into fastboot mode and connect to PC.

Then open command prompt window in the adb directory and type :

fastboot devices

Hit enter and make sure your mipad device ID is showing. If not you haven't got the correct USB drivers you need to install them and repeat above till the device ID is shown.

Then type

fastboot flash recovery rec.img

Hit enter and all done.

    What is "tile for activating\deactivating battery charging"?
    - this is system icon(like performance profiles) which permits\prohibits the supply of current to the battery at the time when the charger is connected.

    Why do we need that tile?
    - if you play, watch a movie or perform another costly action, then activating this mode will save the battery from unnecessary wear because energy will go directly from the charger. But you need a fairly powerful charger, if the power of the charger is not enough, then partially the consumption will be compensated by the battery.

    What happens if you do not install TosForPSCI-0.1?
    - at best, only one CPU core will be active. At worst, the recovery will not be started (if it has not been updated too) and the system too.

    How to roll back on the firmware version, which came out before November?
    - download TosForPSCI-0.2 and recovery. You'll be able to flash older ROMs after installing them

    Why do I need to lower the PSCI version from 0.2 to 0.1?
    - Using version 0.1 fixes a problem with shutting down a device.
