I am on the latest official Lineage OS 18.1 from May 2022. Is there any continuation of LOS A11 that I can dirty flash on top of it without breaking everything? I am on the vanilla variant with no gapps or microG (degoogled). Rooted. Thanks.

I am on LOS18.1 how do I check what version of Firmware is installed already? Also, if I need to install Firmware 10.0.1 can I just sideload it without risking the current ROM? Thanks.

How do I install the newest firmware? I think that I installed Lineage 18.1 directly from Oxygen OS 9.11 I never went to Oxygen OS 10. Do I need to update the firmware? Do I need to install OOS 10 first? Thanks!

Thank you for your work OP! I am still on the last official Lineage 18.1 (from May 2022) and do not like Android 12 so would like to stay on A11 a bit longer. I am using de-googled 5T so my Lineage 18.1 is in the vanilla version (without gapps or microG installed). Just found your project and...

I set up custom settings in the app UI. Do I need to run a script at all? Just a restart of the phone was needed and AccA started to work after that.

That's great. Can I use a terminal on the PC for it?

Thanks for your replies. The feature I like in AccuBattery is calculating the capacity of the battery left/ deterioration of the battery. Does ACCA have a similar feature? I do not really want to keep two apps doing the same stuff to avoid conflicts. On the other hand, not sure how reliable...

How did you solve the problem?

I own bacon, onyx and dumpling too. Thank you for trying to keep onyx alive. How did you get around dying batteries after those years?

I am also on ArrowOS (12.1L) 2 months in, and there were no issues. I mean, fast charging works and never had excessive discharging. Tonight, the first time the phone went from >50% to 5% in a few hours. How to diagnose that? How to isolate the problem? At least I would like to know if that is a...

I am using AccuBattery on my devices. Is this AccA better in some way? Thanks. EDIT. Just found it in f-droid. That is the first confirmation of its superiority as the AccuBattery is from PlayStore (Aurora - my phone is degoogled). But upon installing it says that it needs root. I thought I am...

I can't believe there is no other way to watch Manchester City. Banking apps can be spoofed. There is a gcam that has 108MP but why would you need this many pixels anyway?

A poor camera sensor in 'sweet'? Did you try gcam? I know it is not the greatest camera in a smartphone but beats anything I saw in a $150 phone. What did you finally get second-hand? Thanks.

I know man. I hate those large buttons for quick settings. Are they made for the blind? I don't see a reason to change the quick settings layout so drastically. For example, instead of the usual 6 icons (on Android 11) seen after one swipe from the top, there are 4 now, and a total of 8 icons...

Did not try crdroid but I flashed ArrowOS 12L and can't tell any battery drain. Installed it 5 days ago and still have 20 odd per cents of battery left, waiting for the first full charge. I do not use any google apps/ services (gapps or else).

I would suggest a clean install, to begin with, and mind what the developer says about the firmware needed. I am on ArrowOS 12L and can't tell any battery drain. Installed it 5 days ago and still have 20 odd per cent of battery left, waiting for the first full charge but I do not use any google...

No experience with other custom ROMs but flashed ArrowOS 12L and had no issues that I could find.

Words of wisdom! Thanks for the write-up, mate. I enjoyed the read.

You were right. The hardware is great for the price I paid - £129 for a brand new 128GB ROM/ 6GB RAM device. Unlocking has gone smooth on the first try but it involves a huge privacy sacrifice. You need to give them a lot of data: your email, phone number, sim card number, operator, location, pc...

I flashed clean Arrow 12L (Arrow-v12.1-sweet-OFFICIAL-20220921-VANILLA.zip) on a brand new 'sweet' with MIUI 13. No restarts or other problems that I could find in 3 days since I flashed.

Where? The last A11 on their site is from February '22

I guess it is not maintained for 'sweet' anymore? Thanks.

Are you still using Pulkit LOS 19.1? Would you point me to gcam configuration that works? (I am digging the subject for weeks now and found too many versions around the Telegram group) Thanks.

Is the list still updated? There is Lineage OS 19.1 going on by Pulkit (but not the vanilla build, unfortunately).

It's not about performance but rather a compatibility.

Do you say that there is no point in doing backups as they will not work? What about official TWRP 3.6.2? https://twrp.me/xiaomi/xiaomiredminote10pro.html Will backup work then?

I removed the stock SMS app and installed QKSMS. I could receive SMS but could not send any!

Does it have gapps? I want a degoogled phone but can't find any ROM that is privacy oriented. Is it still supported or A12 version has been released? Thanks.

Why would you need more than 12MPix?

I know! I am looking for a degoogled ROM and cannot find any. I am a privacy fan and 'sweet' seems to be not the best device for that.

It has to be unofficial then. The latest official is twrp-3.6.2_11-0-sweet https://eu.dl.twrp.me/sweet/

That was an instant reply. Thanks. I hoped you would give more details. I guess that you used TWRP 3.6.2 (official or unofficial?) Also, do you use Gcam? Which version works best with ArrowOS 12L? Cheers.

What recovery?

It is easy and possible for my OnePlus and Xiaomi sweet devices. TWRP Install (Requires TWRP 2.8.4 or higher already installed): Download the latest TWRP image file (.img) from the download link and boot TWRP. Go to install and find and select the Images... button. Browse to the image that you...

This source says 'no'. If you unlock the bootloader, your phone's warranty will be void.

I think I managed to start the process. Thanks!

Did you get it unlocked at the end? I am in the middle of double porting my old mobile number to the new sim. I hope that they will not be fussy about the different phone number used (same sim) in initiating the process and the actual unlocking after 7 days.

Thanks for your response and for digging this old thread out for me. Highly appreciated. On Linux the fastboot work great, ~/adb-fastboot/platform-tools$ fastboot oem device-info (bootloader) Verity mode: true (bootloader) Device unlocked: false (bootloader) Device critical unlocked: false...

Windows only and Intel-based PC only 👀 Source: https://new.c.mi.com/global/post/101245 Call me crazy but I am a 100% Linux guy on AMD hardware with no Virtual Machines! It's gonna take longer than I expected :coffee: The Linux tools seem to be outdated and not supporting 'sweet' Redmi Note 10...

I am going through this. Thanks. Quick one: Could anybody spoil it for me? Can I do it on Linux or their software is windows only?

Thanks for sharing your experiences. The SIM bit is that I do not get. I heard that you can't request/complete the unlocking on wifi and you have to use your SIM data. They gather this data and I do not like it. I read that you need a MI account registered on your phone number and not email...

LOL Just received this phone as I impulse bought it when on flash sale, here in England. To custom ROMs, I came from the OnePlus angle (One, X and 5T) where all was easily allowed, accepted and with no warranty loss. Been de-googling my phones for a few years now. My bad as I did not research...

Hi all. I just purchased the Redmi Note 10 Pro with the sole intent to flash custom ROM. I am glad that the device has Official support from the ArrowOS team. I am still researching as the Xiaomi phones are new to me. Also, is ArrowsOS privacy oriented (like graphene, lineage) and a good start...

How do you install from GitHub? I am with Llo=yds too. Thanks.

I ordered Pixel 3A yesterday, based on the hype of the great camera and a good screen. Then I found that SO MANY users broke the screens just by a small 1 feet drop. And yes, they had expensive screen protectors, cases and still, the screen shattered. As could be expected, Google is making the...

I am in the same boat. Looking for Pixel 3a as they suppose to have a good camera and a smaller size. It's going to replace Oneplus X which still works fine but there is no Lineage support anymore and /e/OS has some software issues and no updates. Did you get it or choose something else in the...

Is Google Pixel 3a a good material for LineageOS phone? Is the camera somehow comparable? Will she lose the specific pixel camera features like night sight photo mode? I am planning to get it for the wife. We are using LineageOS for many years now. We are avoiding google as much as possible and...

Hi all. Is this still an alive project? What is the security patch on it? I have an Onyx with /e/ OS (Android 7) but some stuff does not work and the security patch is from June 2021. Thanks for the advice.

Thanks, man. I missed the point about the additional app (SD Maid). Do I need to keep this SD Maid and freeze Magisk every time I log in to the bank? I try to keep the apps down to the bare minimum. It went ok this time. I am not a big fan of using bank apps on mobile but I needed to cash in the...

Hi. I am trying to get LLoyds Bank App working but cannot understand the steps you gave. I ve got magisk, enabled zygisk, added Lloyds app to deny list. HIDE MAGISK - do you mean MAGISK SETTINGS->HIDE THA MAGISK APP (BY CHANGING NAME)? FREEZE APP - how do I do that? Freeze the magisk or banking...
