Hi,

I have trouble charging on official 18.1 11th Oct build (didn't try previous version).

Some chargers, for example USB port on PC, don't work when connected but if I turn off phone and connect charger, it starts charging and will keep charging even if I turn on until I try to disconnect and reconnect the charger.

Steps:
- connect phone to laptop usb - not charging
- disconnect phone and turn off
- connect phone to usb whilst phone is off - charging
- turn on phone - charging
- disconnect phone
- connect phone again - not charging

Which kernel do you have? Stock?
Have you flashed the mod indicated a few links above?
Which magisk modules do you have installed?
Which firmware are you on?
Have you tried with different cable? (not charger, only cable)

charging works just fine here, so must be something on your side.

@gardiol

Thanks for the reply.

- Stock kernel
- No Magisk installed
- No other modifications
- Newest Android 11 EU V12.5.2.0.RJGEUXM
- Will try a few different cables if I find any around the house.

Happens not just with laptop but was easiest to replicate. Cable worked fine before, works fine in Recovery and Fastboot also (incl. data transfer).

** WARNING LONG POST **

I spent some time to review the patch posted here

There are two replaced executables:
- charger
- init

The charger binary is replaced for the offline charging animation, i believe. But i didn't diffed with official charger bin as author do not disclose which MIUI it comes from. So it might be original or it might be modified i don't know.

The init replacement is more critical, probably related to the safetynet fix, but i would be personally concerned to run such binary on my phone unless full source to it is released by author.

All the main props files have been modified and a few things come to my attention.

The build is still abused as "official lineageOS build" by buildkite and such, which it is not at this point, so this would be a concern, even if more an ethical one, since people could report issues as "official" build while it's not an official build anymore.

Also, quite a few graphical props are changed / enabled when they have been not enabled on purpose on official build for stability concerns. So YMMV, but you could get crashes.

All build fingerprints have been changed with respect to official, which is probably related to the safetynet fix. This might lead to problems when Google will change things again, and users of this mod will probably have troubles using magisk or any other safetynet fix unless clean flash again. This patch does also change your crypto keys and make your data lost. But this has been advertised by the author, so you know.

There are a lot of modified init rc files, going trough them all is difficult here, but a few things come to my attention.
In a few files security permissions have been relaxed. Some additional permissions have been granted to camera, audio and other subsystems, the reason for this should be explained.
Also quite some /sys and /dev nodes permissions have been changed to make them less secure.

Systemwide stats collection and tuning have been altered in various places, again i see no direct reason for this.

It is my overall impression that the author took some init file from a different device and/or BSP and kind of copied it on the official ones. Not clear to what purpose.

There are massive changes to the mount schema and procedures, probably linked to the removal of "scoped storage", which is there for a reason so YMMV to accepting this change, specially if it is so widespread in the system.

There are lots of small tuning to CPU and governor, there is messing up with the nice levels and file descriptors, something which should not taken lightly and probably would need deep testing on some benchmark to prove that they actually work beside the placebo effect.

Moving on.

The media profiles, audio codecs and settings, have been modified with at least a couple of changes that are known for having caused issues with various apps in the past.

This is more or less the most of it. I have spent way too much time on this analysis at this point, but i did it as this might impact directly the support i give to the community on official LineageOS 18.1 for surya if anybody flashes it and then report issues.

I can see some improvements which would be good for official build too like some cleanup of probably useless init stuff (leftovers from davinci or generic sm6150) and such.

Unfortunately, providing one mega-patch like this with no underlying github repository to track changes and meaningful commit history to justify each one of them make this entire work useless, which is a pity. I strongly suggest the author to read up how to contribute to the android development community so that the good in his work can actually be of benefit for everybody, as he benefitted from the work of many like we all have.

I have also seen various lines that are actually authorship by somebody else, i suggest the author to spend some time identifying them and, after creating a repository for the patch, repo-pick those patches with the correct metadata. This is a time consuming activity, but a necessary one, as you all can understand, so that a real community can function. Just to be clear: it's the duty of who publish stuff to ensure it does not infringe others authorship's, not the other way around.

I suggest the author (i mean the real person behind his many accounts) to understand how the open source android development community works so that the good in his work can be actually benefit the community. There is good in his doing, it's only the ways that make it difficult to be actually used.

    Anyone had the same behaviour?

    No. Lineage 20 is super stable and perfectly reliable for me.

    But: If you have just started playing with LineageOS it might be wise to wait for a few days. The Poco X3 NFC has been officially promoted to LineageOS 21 recently (Android 14) so builds should be available in the next few days.

    Then you could start with a clean flash of LOS 21. Oh, and make sure your firmware is up to date.
    2
    Do you know when Los 21 will be released for Poco X3 NFC?
    Thanks a lot
    If it is your main device I'd prefer to flash newest LOS 20 (15 days ago) and stay on it for 1 or 2 months at least, till when LOS 21 seems to be stable for all and then update. Last week 21 release for instance had to be reverted cause of bug.
    1
    It seems that crDroid is currently the only option if we want Android 14.
    Finally I bought a Poco F5 for 260€ last week. It has much more comunity working on it. Today I'll be able to unlock bootloader and I'll try with Paranoid. I'll still keep on using my x3 as a second phone.
    1
    I was on microg version unlike yours with gapps, but had similar issue (got boot loop after upgrading).
    I wiped the data off, and re-flashed, but that didn't solve the issue either.
    Since I could not flash lineage anymore, I ended up with flashing different ROM (for my case, E / OS).
    I was so pissed that I lost my data and wasted my time for several hours, but at least now I got my device finally working (though I'm back on android 13 with E / OS).
    I was impatient too, anyway I'm back on Lineage 20 (A13), and will wait a few weeks (months) at least..
    Poco X3 is my main mobile, so I can't experiment so much with it..

    I gave the LOS 21 a lot of chances, wiped all partitions,... but unfortunatelly nothing more - just boot loops.
    Maybe it is because my fw is European, and admins of Poco X3's LOS are from different part of World...
    1
    I upgraded to LOS21, following the guide, so wipe and so on.
    It works perfectly, no more freezes!

    The only small bug comparing LOS21 vs LOS 20, not only on Poco X3 NFc but I saw this in another device as well:

    LOS21 : If you deselect "Use vibration & haptics" when you unlock the phone by fingerprint, it still vibrates.
    LOS20 : If you deselect "Use vibration & haptics" when you unlock the phone by fingerprint, it doesn't vibrate anymore.


    ***EDIT
    Workaround
    I solved forcing with adb shell
    cmd appops set com.android.systemui VIBRATE ignore

    LineageOS 19.1 Official and currently built by LineageOS official infrastructure.


    17.1 has never been official (and it's upstream dead since 31st December 2021),
    18.1 is official, discontinued builds,
    19.1 is official, discontinued builds,
    20.0 is official and built weekly.

    /*
    * Your warranty is now void.
    *
    * I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
    * thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
    * do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM
    * before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
    * you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.
    */

    What's working:
    • Everything

    Known issues:
    • Honestly at this time, nothing?
    • Some people report SystemUI freezes, in this case setting minimum refresh rate to 60Hz and peak refresh rate to 90Hz sohuld solve the issue.

    Camera Notes
    ANX camera is not recomended and will most probably NOT work.
    To get a fully working camera try one of the gcams here.
    Do not forget to copy&load the associated xml file!

    Official LOS uses oss camera service, so xml written for other custom roms might not work.
    The gcams at the above link have modified xmls for LOS.


    Download:

    There is also a MIcroG build if you don't like Google Apps!
    If you care for official microg builds, check here they will be ready when they will be ready, those builds are not done by me nor supported by me, do not ask me about it.

    There is also, for help and support, the:
    Instructions:
    • Make sure to flash at the firmware 14.0.5.0 (anything newer will work) from XiaomiFirmwareUpdater firmware page
    • Download this build and Magisk (optionally) and gapps (optionally).
    • Put the zip on your MicroSD (suggested) or connect via USB to PC.
    • Boot to recovery (latest TWRP only is suggested! OrangeFox has issues).
    • Wipe Dalvik, Cache and format data. This IS NOT OPTIONAL!
    • Reboot recovery after wipe and format.
    • Flash this ROM zip...
    • ... flash gapps zip ...
    • ... If you want Magisk, flash zip ...
    • Reboot and enjoy!
    If you have any issues flashing, like persistent GApps or booting issues, try to cleanup the phone with the following procedure:
    • Download a full MIUI rom recovery package from XiaomiFirmwareUpdater MIUI page
    • ... (make sure you download the full rom package for RECOVERY, it is about 2.4Gb!) ...
    • From recovery, flash the zip file. This will cleanup all the partitions.
    • Now flash again this ROM.
    This problem is related to the fact that TWRP and OrangeFox both don't support dynamic partitions properly yet.

    Tested with Magisk 25.2, newer version should work, but you MUST follow the SafetyNet fix guide in the next post if you want Play Store certification.

    Suggested GAPPS for LineageOS: Mind The Gaps (here, make sure to download the ones for your android version 10, 11 or 12).

    Passing SafetyNet and Google Play Certification

    SafetyNet and Play Store certification

    (guide updated 24 aug 2022, for Magisk 25.2)

    LineageOS, by charter, does not alter any safety ptotection set by Google. In our case, having an unlocked bootloader, safetynet will always fail by Google decision. Now, passing safety net is required for banking apps and even some games. Also, it is required for "play store certification", which will prevent you from even searching for some apps (like Netflix).
    Blame Google for all this.

    --ALL STEPS ARE MANDATORY, NONE CAN BE SKIPPED UNLESS EXPLICITY OPTIONAL--

    Install Magisk

    Download latest stable magisk apk from Magisk website (https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk). Rename it as .zip and flash it from recovery. Some recoveries, like TWRP, will flash the apk directly, others will require the rename.
    Boot LOS and install the apk file.

    Hide Magisk apps and Enable Zygisk & blocklist

    Open Magisk App, go to settings and hide the magisk app. Give it a name you will remember.
    After magisk app has been hidden, go back to settings and enable Zygisk (beta).
    Now apply the blocklist and select all the apps you like NOT to detect Magisk. This must include Google Play Services and Google Play Store.

    Install SafetyNet fix module

    kDrag0n developed a fix that can be flashed via Magisk. You must download the module (https://github.com/kdrag0n/safetynet-fix/releases), select at least version 2.2.1, and install it from inside Magisk app.

    Setup Fingerprint

    Download latest Props module for Magisk (https://xdaforums.com/t/module-magi...t-prop-edits-and-more-v6-1-2.3789228/page-274) and install it within Magisk. Reboot your phone.
    Now, after reboot, open a terminal (use "adb shell" from pc, or install termux from play store) and type:
    su (grant root access!)
    props (a text based menu will popup)
    Now select "1" (edit fingerprint), type "f" (pick fingerprint) select "22" (poco) then select any one poco x3 model. Which one really doesn't matter, but make sure to choose the right Android version.
    Confirm and reboot phone.

    Clear caches for Google stuff

    Now, open settings - apps and clear data&cache for Google Play Store and Google Play Services.
    One last reboot!

    Don't want root?

    If you dont want root... Just disable it from within Magisk!

    OPTIONAL Additional stuff

    Magisk from 24.1 removed the built-in modules repository. If you like it back, you can install Fox's Magisk Module Manager app (https://github.com/Fox2Code/FoxMagiskModuleManager).

    I have some news. I am working on Lineage-18.1 and so far i am having some good progress.
    I managed to boot it, it's still unstable and a lot work is required, but it's steady.

    It is OSS based, so this will be official no doubt this time.
    18
    Official build is again underway and will be ready in a few days.
    Everything has been approved this time we are just waiting for hudson & wiki merge to be approved.

    I think there is good hope that the first official build will be next week.
