Few more bugs:

On occasion, upon selecting restart in the power menu, the phone just powers off instead.

Bluetooth devices are forgotten after restart : they disappear from the list and need to be re-paired every time. In addition, the icons for devices only show up if they feel like it (Bluetooth headphone battery should show when connected)

Wi-Fi speed has taken a hit. Testing on other phones and devices and comparing with rosy on miui eu, the speed is down dramatically causing buffering and other issues.(Have 100mbps down internet and testing on rosy gives me 5mpbs)

Interestingly enough, my rosy only charges when connected with a data usb cable. Power only usb cables do not charge the device even if the device shows that it is charging.

Again, thanks for the great rom. Hope to see OTA updates soon :good:

I will gladly provide logs but I'm not sure how to get them. Do you mean for me to generate a bug report from dev settings? Or you want a logcat?

I've been trying to get the rom work for a couple hours now. It never passes the initial boot phase and is stuck in a bootloop. I've flashed the latest firmware and the given twrp , tried quartz 1 as well still ends up in a bootloop . Tried flashing the lineage OS(unofficial) and that worked. Tried changing the recovery to orange fox and repeated the entire process above, and still bootloop.

Are you making sure you factory reset, Are you installing from Android 8 or did you flash the firmware from Xiaomi?

Btw, can anyone tell me where to find the option to disable quickpull down of status bar? I seem to have enabled it when it asked while i was setting up the newly flashed rom. But can't find that option in the settings at all.

Yes, I did factory reset as well. I was already coming from Android 8 miui, but still i did flash the firmware as a precautionary measure.
I was able to bypass the bootloop today while switching ROMs. I don't know what caused it in the first place, but it seems to be working now. :good::highfive:

Settings > system > Advanced > Reset options > Feature preferences > quick settings pull down

Enjoy!
