Question Any GSI ROM users?

[sanjibukai]

Hello everybody,
I just got this phone and before using it (and having some data) I wanted to try rooting and using a custom ROM..
One of the main reason I want to use a custom ROM is because of the stupid limitation of the Full Screen Gestures when using a third party launcher.

I tried many GSI ROMs and they are so slick!

I just have only two problem to solve:

• Having the Always On Display working
• Having all the camera modules/leness working (currently only one camera is working by default)

Those limitation seem to be on purpose (but I'm not sure)..
For the camera, I tried the MIUI Camera app port (AEONAX app) but it is not working (it is not listed for that device anyway).

So does anyone managed to have a GSI ROM (or really any slick custom ROM) with Always on Display and all the camera working?

Thank you.

Thanks...

AOSP ROMs? I thought it was the same...

I was using the ROMs from here https://github.com/phhusson/treble_...mage-(GSI)-list#maintained-older-android-gsis (link from this guide https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...inori-gsi-auto-installer-foco-m4-pro.4507267/ )
So it seems there is only one AOSP ROM in this list, so I'm going to try that now..

But really it's hard to believe that GSI ROMs do not have AoD while there are so many GSI ROMs (and hence so many users)... I still want to think I did something wrong.. But if really it's not gonna work for GSI ROMs, that's weird)

Well I just tried the AOSP ROM and it's exactly the same (it's also very "raw" - no onboarding, icons from 2010 XD, etc.)

The "Custom Rom's" out there performing poor.
For GSI first flash Stock MIUI A11 (like: fleur_global_images_V13.0.10.0.RKEMIXM. Depending on your Device.) Than flash GSI. Not all GSI working well.

For me working very well:
Project Elixier 3.6
Evolution X 7.6
Derpfest (latest build)

Most other have Problems with performance etc.

For get AOD u go to phh treble settings > misc features > under display section enable "force allow Always-On Display

now reboot

when aod not show go to > settings > display > lockscreen > look for something like "always show time and info"

for good working camera ports im searching to.

Derpfest (latest)
PROJECT ELIXIR 3.6 (3.5 is bootlooping)
EvolutionX 7.6

I have project elixir and it's working the best for my phone, AOD is working.

Also, probably there is no ROM that has working all three lenses, but you can flash miui camera that works almost like stock camera, eventually you can try open camera from Google play

On Project Elixier i have the problem that after several hours (idk exact) i dont receive any message from whatsapp. energie saving options, etc. i have disabled. also i locked whatsapp in recent's.

i cant find out what is the problem. can you confirm similar problems? or know what i can try to fix it?

Thanks for the suggestion!
I just started over with the mentioned stock ROM and indeed AoD worked (tried with PE, will try with LOS now).
Do you know what's the reason to start from A11?
Until now I was just using with the lates stock ROM..
