Development ArrowOS 13 [android-13] for POCO X3 Pro (vayu/bhima) [OFFICIAL][+arrow-12.1]

Search This thread
Developer currently on break, but since he deleted basically every social account he had, I doubt he will come back. I will ride ArrowOS until something breaks and then switch to something else. For now, I really recommend this ROM, very stable, fast.
Yes ArrowOS was really good, but everything has to come to an end. I'm on Evolution X 7.6 ROM as of today. So far I am very satisfied. There are many ways to design the Poco.

If Kuber is bored and do not want to continue, understandable, someone else can do, there are many developers in the Arrow team that can take over the Poco rom project.

but why SHOULD they take over?
ArrowOS is not a comercialized brand. They've got no responsibilities.
ArrowOS was not developed for our device. it was simply Ported, because someone that owns the Device decided to do that.

Anyone can take ArrowOS source, merge upstream changes and build the ROM. We've got working kernel and most stuff works, the chance of breaking things is pretty small.

I still hope they didn't abandon the X3 Pro, although if someone changed ROMs and has something to recommend, I'd love to see some suggestions
definitely lineage os is your better option; many custom rom are based on them but it does not pass safety net, it does not has the google certificated device neither the unlimited google photos storage :/

My bad, didn't explain properly, i mean that another Arrow developer can continue the release of the rom monthly. According to the official arrow release page Kuber wasn't the only dude working on the Poco X3. Cross fingers, because i like a lot Arrow, is a minimal rom as i like.

Android 13 is objectively better, more streamlined, secure and gives you more control over your device. Just because you don't understand/use the new features doesn't mean the OS is ****. Also it's pretty sad you feel better just because you're using an older OS XDD
Enjoy your objectively streamlined & secure Android 13 more control experience, my guy. Doubt you use your phone for anything more than social media, and guzzling down on TikTok or whatever rots your brain these days. But you provided me with a good chuckle, I'll give you that :)

You also have LibreMobileOS, which I used for a while and will definitely get back to if I need to change ROMs.
Although synced with LOS trees it is it's own thing and based off of AOSP. You should definitely check it out. Builds are vanilla, they don't pass safetynet, you need an external fix for that. Currently they're running Android12 but the move to 13 will happen.

crdroid 9.2 , fast, reliable, safety net passes, google certification device passes, unlimited photo storage. good enough for me, i havent tested evolution x which is also highly recomended.

Still no news from the Arrow team? Other good roms do not have the vanilla version, i will miss Arrow if this is really abandoned. A statement from someone inside the development can be appreciated.

Kuber already left, and deleted all his accounts. Not blaming him obviously, it was a free thankless service he was providing.

I have already migrated to the Xiaomi.EU ROM. It's not terrible, and the camera really is better than AOSP (even with Gcam). Obviously not for everyone but I don't mind it. It was a nice change of pace.

I see, since i prefer vanilla i will go with LineageOS 20.0, atm is unofficial so i will wait a bit more. Unless someone else from the Arrow devs pick up this model.
