[OFFICIAL] LineageOS 18.1 for Xiaomi Mi 6 (sagit)
- Thread starter NeoArian
- Start date
welcome, there is a bug in lineage-19.1-20230112-nightly-sagit-signed.
Second sim card is not showing up. You need to eject sim cards and insert them again and then its working. This is each time you restart your phone. My two sim cards have the same operator ( maybe that is problem ). In lineage 18.1 everything was ok.

Did you do an update from 18.1 or a full wipe? I had the same problem and it fixed itself after doing a full wipe and reinstall...
Yes I did dirty flash from 18.1 to 19.1. I dont want to do a full wipe, will try not to restart my phone too often
Did you have any problems with twrp recovery? Now I cant decrypt data in recovery. I have no password but twrp is asking for password. This problem is only in twrp. Updated twrp to 3.7.0 but still the same.
Yeah, I understand. It's really a pain to have to reinstall every time...Yes I did dirty flash from 18.1 to 19.1. I dont want to do a full wipe, will try not to restart my phone too often

I have the same problem with TWRP... There are a couple of solutions online but I'm too lazy to try them.
I will stay on LOS19.1 for a while until I get tired of it and decide to reinstall from scratch. At the moment I'm not that motivated to upgrade as everything works great on 19.1.
I also dont want to make it worse. My plan is to install lineage 20 from scratch but not now. Maybe closer to end of this year
thanks for your reply.Hello!
I'm having problems with a clean install of LOS 20.0 + NikGApps Core + Magisk 25.2. When the smartphone goes into deep sleep, I stop receiving notifications and when I open any applications it closes after 1 second. What happen?
Thanks!

Maybe for now its better to use 19.1 and wait few months until this LOS 20 will be patched?
Hello,
I have a Xiaomi Mi6, and i want to install LineageOS onto it. I have played around and used CyanogenMod in past, so i have no big worry about installing the os, but i have questions about this. Reading on page one, i see its 18.1, but when i click the download link, i see that v20.x is there.
Is the newest confirmed version for the Xiaomi Mi6 the 18.1, or has it been updated to be able to run the v20.x?
Basically, i just dont want to download and play around with a version that does not work on my phone. I want to get rid of the xiaomi OS, cos of the bloatware that i cant remove, and i know the phone is old, but there are no options for me to buy a new one, and i like my mi6 alot for the size in hand, something phone makers are finally moving back towards (S22) but at a stupid high price. My Mi6 has a new battery and feel just like a new phone to me, apart from the OS.
So in short, which version of LineageOS am i looking to install on my Mi6 for the most painfree (bugfree) experience?

I have 19.1 and it's rock solid. This phone has been my daily driver since I bought it in 2017 and I have installed every LOS version available. I would say 19.1 has been the most stable of all. Every works for me, even dual sim. Obviosly with time it will come outdated as no more updates are being pushed, but by then LOS20 will be as good as LOS19.1 is now for me I hope.
Thank you for the reply.
Now i just need to work out how to install it, i havnt done this stuff since i had an LG G3.
I find the instructions confusing also, haha.
The plan is to factory reset the phone, and then before in time at least, i would hook up to a pc, and then load the OS onto the phone, and then with bootloader run it. But all videos i watch seem to make it like i download on phone and then install that way?
I normally do it from the phone but the first time you'll need a PC with Windows or Linux to push the recovery once you have unlock the phone. I don't remember exactly but it was very straightforward. I am no linux guru (just a regular windows user that happens to like linux more
) and it's very easy to install the tools you need directly from the command line, at least in Ubuntu. But there are lots of tutorials online and the instructions on LineageOS are ok. Just do it, it is not that complicated and there not that many things that can convert your phone into a paperweight 
What do you mean by unlock?

Search this site and there are lots of info. This is quite OT and the MODs witll come after us so lets just leave it at this OK?
Come back when you have more specific questions about this particular ROM.Hello! In LOS 19.1 I can't find the wake screen for notifications settings. I want to disable this option but it doesn't appear.
hi，There is a bug after Xiaomi 6 updates lineageos20. When the screen expires and stops automatically, it will automatically light up and keep repeating. But when I turn off the screen with the power button, this bright screen problem will not occur. Please correct this problem, thank you

The same thing happens in LOS 20. The screen wakes up with notifications and I don't know how to turn it off

Just be happy that we have LOS 20. This phone is from 2017. Its great that someone is still making new custom firmware. Test and let us know how is the battery drain?
Firmware is ok for bank apps1I went back to 18.1 because when using latest TWRP 3.7 theres a problem with internal storage in lineage 19.1 and 20. I cant access internal memory when in TWRP. Each time when I restart my phone and go to recovery it shows 0 mb. I try to format data and it works but not for long. When I go to system and restart to recovery its again the same 0 mb. Probably we need to wait for new version TWRP. Everything is ok on 18.1.
ps. after some thinking decided to use latest lineageos 20. I installed nikgapps, magisk before restarting to OS hoping that some time in future new TWRP will fix this 0 mb.

They latest build should be working pretty good, but swiping up on lockscreen (when not using fingerprint sensor) needs to be done slowly (the system thinks that it's an accidental swipe up, i didn't figure that out yet).
You can find automated release messages about future builds here: https://t.me/releases_by_arian5Earlier today, this happened in the Releases by Arian Telegram group. If this ends up materializing as an official LineageOS 20 image when the time comes, I'm going to be really grateful, @NeoArian. Thanks for not forgetting this device.
I show off Phone Information screenshots of my 5 year-old Mi 6 phone to geeky friends, and they are always truly amazed.

#sagit4I'm posting a total success with my upgrade to 18.1:
- Previous version was last 17.1 image
- I had problems flashing lineage recovery so I flashed latest TWRP (it ended up being an issue with the cable, though)
Once booted into TWRP:
- Flashed latest firmware just in case, but I'm pretty sure I was up to date
- Dirty flashed LineageOS 18.1 20210603
- I flashed MindTheGapps
- I flashed @NeoArian's Miui camera from late in the 17.1 thread.
Everything worked flawlessly, Miui camera included!
I only had to reverse the back button again in the preferences.
I had a weird charging issue since January (it would only charge if I plugged the cable in and then rebooted), which is now gone too.
11/10, this is awesome!4Hey guys, regarding the issue I reported on last summer:
I SOLVED it! By flashing the latest stock ROM. I tried the latest Xiaomi.EU weekly and stable ROMs as well as the latest official global ROM, so I'm not sure which one fixed it or if they all do. (I was flashing them for other purposes and only thought of checking if this problem had been solved somewhere along the process.)
I did notice that after flashing the latest global ROM my baseband version changed into a higher number. It seems the Chinese ROM—which my phone originally shipped with and on which the Xiaomi.EU ROMs are based—comes with a lower baseband version (AT20-0305_1024_3754711 according to a screenshot I took). I'm now on baseband version AT20-0307_2204_3754711. I'm not sure if it was the baseband version though, I seem to remember the date-time-issue already being solved after only flashing the Xiaomi.EU ROM.
Anyway, the problem was clearly with the firmware, and reflashing all partitions solved it. I found this out a few months ago but didn't get around to write this up. Hope it can still help someone!
@NeoArian @anderson997 @jordiet
Edit: forgot to say, afterwards I flashed LineageOS again and the problem didn't return
