My guess is that this version will live on until 13 is released.
We already have ArrowOS 13, but it's not official, it's Beta, but very stable and I dailydrive it. Check our Poco F3 ArrowOS TG Group mipa_lab

*All* ArrowOS 12.1 builds for *all* devices have been discontinued, in favour of ArrowOS 13.

"Discontinued" only means Arrow 12.1 is discontinued.

ArrowOS is focusing on Android 13.

Guys,

Am I the only one that foolishly flashed the vanilla build and on top of it flashed the gapps build? Were they ever separated?

I feel like a monkey that's been doing this nonsense for many years.

This is the most powerful rom for mi 11x if used with full tweak with FKM(franco kernel manager). No lags/stutters no heating, best for gaming! This rom's read/write speed is also osmmm specially while using gameguardian script applications! Love this rom and will use it till I use this device. Salute to arrow team from me for making a perfect rom!

It would make sense if you're flashing NikGapps Core after flashing ArrowOS Vanilla (NikGapps Core has less Google Spy/Crapware than Arrow GApps), but flashing ArrowOS GApps-Build over Vanilla-Build after every update.. that's strange indeed lol.

It doesn't do any harm if you flash GApps-Build right after Vanilla, without booting System(!), but it's strange.

I do have the stuttery audio issue when using wired headphones, I never use bluetooth.
I also have an issue with data that was introduced in the latest OTA (November 14) where my data only work for a brief period (like 5 seconds) then stop until I change to another APN and back to the real one, then they work for a bit and stop again.
Also when I turn on GPS my data stop working until I reboot and GPS never works

Yea something's severely messed up on your device lol.

When did these issues start and what FW are you using? Best to use the latest FW. At the time of writing it's v13.0.9 EU, you can also use v13.0.6 Global.

    Reboot in ArrowOS Recovery:

    fastboot reboot recovery

    Make format data (Factory reset -> Format data).

    Flash ROM (Apply update -> Apply from ADB):


    adb sideload name.zip

    Follow what show on device, should be ... Step 1/2 -> 2/2, then flashing ended, can reboot device in system. (In cmdline: If the process succeeds the output will stop at 47% and report `adb: failed to read command: Success`. In some cases it will report `adb: failed to read command: No error` which is also fine!")

    If you want install separate gapps on vanilla buildtype, after flash ROM:
