I am completely right. Your screenshot says unofficial.

I posted a link here to an unofficial ArrowOS 13 version that was built 4 months ago:

I have seen the same happen with Apex Legacy on LOS -- usually, pressing the home button again ends up displaying the home screen... after some mild frustration. :unsure:

that's correct. Do you know a solution? It's not a big thing since everything else works very stable and fast. It happens more often when you from the view of recent apps hit the home button. May be tasker could help. If press home go to homescreen. So that would actually generate two orders. I will give it a try and report if successful. On the flipside, I know Tasker and also Xposed Edge Pro can't recognize those softbuttons anymore. It started somewhere with A12 and higher. Never found a solution for it.

Hello.

May I ask why on the official site: https://arrowos.net/

Cannot download the ROM itself ?

For example, for the Surya model, the latest GAPPS build can only be downloaded from the US server ?

For example, the Europe server is not available so the built-in updater on the phone also does not work and reports network problems.

Thank you in advance for the answer.

If you want to be safe you shouldn't be updating through the updater anyway. It has been known to fail and make the phone unbootable in which case you need to download a working zip file through external means since the phone won't boot. In short download through the browser, boot into recovery and then install. I'm not sure about the server not working but just use the US server and download through your browser and install like I described above.

Hello.

Development of Arrow OS for Surya is interrupted ?

On the official website, the last available version 12.1 says: Poco X3 Nfc [DISCONTINUED]

Thank you.

Hello.

and is it safe to use unofficial ROMs ? For example, can't a developer add some form of malicious code to an unofficial ROM ?

Thank you.

There is always such a risk. But Carlos is a famous developer (official mainainer for LineageOS) and I don't think he does anything like that. He uses the official ArrowOS repo and his own device tree for surya, which he reworked from LineageOS sources.

Thank you very much for your very quick reply.
I will try to install this ROM.
I just hope that this ROM will have longer term support when it is not an official ROM...

TheStrechh has been supporting this for a long time. First fbev1 and now fbev2. His device tree is also public, so you can trace everything he does.

I'm learning to build roms from him. And I will boast that I can build ArrowOS for surya myself. Using the official ArrowOS repo and device treee by TheStrechh.

It's really worth a try. ArrowOS is the best ROM for our phone. Light and smooth running. Without any unnecessary modifications.

I have a phone on ArrowOS 11, may I know how to upgrade while keeping all the apps currently installed and chats (WhatsApp, Telegram, etc...)?

Make a backup with something like Migrate, do a clean flash and restore your backup

forum.xda-developers.com

[APP][ROOT][5.0+][1st Nov 2020] Migrate - custom ROM migration tool

Jumping from one custom ROM to another can be a challenging task. So I decided to make an app to simplify the process. Introducing Migrate! Migrate-GPE (v4.0) is on Google Play It was temporarily suspended. Read more here...
forum.xda-developers.com forum.xda-developers.com

Personally, I wouldn't install this ROM right now if making a clean flash. Looks like it's discontinued and I would rather go with Lineage or crDroid.

I've felt a bit tired of waiting and preferred to change. I'm on SPARK OS Android 13 based roms since 2 weeks. Fast, smooth, no lag, stable and fully working as a daily driver :cowboy:

    Zzenyoo,

    Thank you very much for showing me how to enable the Clear All Button At the Bottom of the Recents screen for ArrowOS 12 - Arrow-v12.0-surya-OFFICIAL-20220123-GAPPS.zip

    I feel really stupid & highly embarrassed that I was not able to figure this out for myself. The answer was right in my face & I did not see it. I am truly humbled. Thank you again for your patience & your reply.

    I included procedures & screenshots below to help anyone else that may want to turn on or off the Clear All Button At the Bottom of the Recents screen for ArrowOS 12.

    Procedure
    1. Long press any blank space on the Lawnchair Launcher screen
    2. Select Home Settings from the menu
    3. Select Recents from the Settings menu
    4. Select Clear All Button at Bottom button
    5. Verify by selecting recents buttons at very bottom of screen. Clear all will now show at the bottom of the screen instead of the extreme left of the recents screen.
    Screenshots

    Everything is working fine so far. The only issue is that the fingerprint scanner acts as some sort of "enter" key. Does anyone know how to make it ignore accidental touches?

    Click to collapse

    I managed to fix the annoying fingerprint issue (the one reported above by me, and by other users on the first few pages of this thread). The fingerprint sensor was acting like an "enter key" whenever I touched it, which was quite annyoing).

    It was fixed after completely restarting the whole process, by reflashing the latest MIUI rom (12.5.3 Global) and then repeating all the steps to install ArrowOS. Here's a list of steps, if you're having the same issue or any other issues that might pop up for just some users:

    1 - Use MiFlash20210226 to flash the ROM downloaded from xiaomifirmwareupdater website:

    "MIUI V12.5.3.0.RJGMIXM Stable Official Update for POCO X3 NFC Global (surya)"

    The archive name is: surya_global_images_V12.5.3.0.RJGMIXM_20211013.0000.00_11.0_global_9eca9fae68.tgz
    Size: 5.2 GB (it's the fastboot type, not the recovery type).

    Note 1: if you don't know how to do this, look for "[GUIDE]⚙ USE XIAOMI FLASH TOOL" here on XDA, by user @NOSS8

    Note 2: It's normal to receive an error at the end when using the "clean all" option, right when the smartphone automatically reboots while flashing. As long as it's taking a while to flash all the necessary data, it should be fine.

    2 - Don't know if this is necessary, but I booted into the MIUI 12.5.3 system, skipped most configs, then I let it finish the initial configuration. Made sure it's the last update avaliable through OTA.

    3 - Reboot into fastboot (hold power +volume down).

    4 - I used the "Minimal ADB and Fastboot" tool in order to use the fastboot command to flash the latest TWRP compatible with Android 12 by @brigudav
    Currently, the file is called: twrp-3.5.2_10-12-surya-a12.img and you can find it here on XDA.

    Note: Boot into TWRP right away after flashing it, don't let your smartphone boot into the MIUI or it'll be overwritten.

    5 - While in TWRP, go to WIPE > Advanced wipe > Select "Dalvik / ART cache" + "Cache" + "Data" and confirm the action.
    Press the home button to return to TWRP main menu.

    6 - While in TWRP, use "install" to flash the zip archive of the latest firmware package for MIUI V12.5.3.0 (Global).
    Currently, it's: fw_surya_miui_SURYAGlobal_V12.5.3.0.RJGMIXM_624ada8a33_11.0.zip also available through the xiaomifirmwareupdater website.
    Press the home button to return to TWRP main menu.

    Note: you can use your PC to send these zips into your smartphone's "Download" folder while in TWRP.

    7 - Also while in TWRP, use "install" to flash the zip archive of the latest official ArrowOS (Gapps version) with android 12.

    Note: Don't forget to go into WIPE > "format data", and typing "yes" to confirm, after flashing the ArrowOS Zip archive.

    8 - Reboot system and you're done.
