Seems to be by purpose following Microsoft:

Devices that will fail include the following:
  • Devices that fail basic integrity
  • Devices with an unlocked bootloader

Cheers

Possible, but it's strange that after company login through intune, the enrollment check/process doesn't even start. I'd expect the check to at least start and then detect the unlocked bootloader...?

Hi,

I am not able to able stable LTE connection (lost after few minutes and never come back). LTE is only available after a reboot, just after unlocking the SIM but when unlocking the phone, LTE collapsed.

I am using a global version (RFAMIXM).
Done a flash first with the lastest China Firmware version but LTE did'nt work, neither bluetooth.
Done again (always clean install) with lastes global Firmware but not better regarding LTE.

Any idea ?. Did someone else try to use this room using a global version ?.
Hi. Got it !. My LTE issue was coming from this application https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=fr.freemobile.android.vvm.

I don't know why but with this one, no more LTE available. After deleting this app, black.


Just done a clean install with lastest version from Jan 19th. All is working fine.
Contrats to the team for this great job !

Great ROM, decent battery and very smooth. Thanks to the dev/s for keeping the Mi9 alive.

Does anyone know what value in the mixer path I have to edit to increase earpiece volume. I'm struggling to hear persons on calls.
Phone is rooted.
Maybe you have dirty earpiece, quite usual. Try to clean it with a tooth brush

Hi
Im on evolution_cepheus-userdebug 12
SQ3A.220705.003.A1 1657295258

I tried to download ota update from settings and it downloads and verifies but when it boots into evo x recovery installation gets aborted

Any idea how to sort and apply latest update without resetting?
Please check the instructions in the first post, you need to Format Data if you come from retrofit ROMs which is the case of EvolutionX A12.
Make sure that you read and understand all the instructions and don't hesitate to ask here if you have doubts.

Almost perfect ROM for me. Great battery, nice UI features, Android Auto works (problematic on many other ROMs) and everything works perfectly encrypted with newest TWRP. Thanks a lot.

Although one issue I already encountered on some other A12 ROMs: Random freezes. When not being used for a while, the phone sometimes gets stuck and doesn't respond to any input. The only thing that helps is a hard reboot by holding the power button. I haven't followed the ROM scene on Mi9 for a while, is this still a problem that we have to live with? Or did we already find the cause? I am curious if there's any workaround or fix nowadays.

Wireless payment doesn't work with the latest update - "phone is rooted or has unsafe software". I don't have root and it worked fine with the previous version.

Any idea...? Thanks

@binsky08 yeah, Seedvault was removed due to a persistent notification.

@ceprk1 this is happening in all ROMs because Google is going crazy, but it has been already fixed and the problem will be gone with next update which will happen in a couple hours probably.

    I have a Google Pixel and this custom rom for the Mi9 gave my old device a hell of a lifespan. Thank you to all the Devs! And it fits perfeclty awesome! All very similar to the official google's system!

    Is there a way to add custom fonts without root?
    this rom have many fonts - no nesesary add.custom 😁

    Thanks for the great rom. Could edge long swipe be added in a future update please? Thanks in advance.

    The ROM's sources are a work in progress right now due to the changes introduced by Google in QPR2, and it seems like everything is gonna need to be rebased which means a new start from scratch. It's gonna take a while. Features will be added progressively and some of them most likely will be abandoned, and some new others will come, but I can say nothing specific about your request because I have no idea. Let's see what the future will bring :)

    PLEASE DO NOT FLASH GAPPS, THEY ARE ALREADY INCLUDED

    First Time Install / Clean Flash
    1. Download the proper ROM ZIP for your device
    2. Reboot to recovery (
    these with decryption support are recommended)
    3. Install the
    latest firmware if not already installed
    4. Format Data if you come from retrofit, EROFS or A12 in any case, and any other situation if your Data is encrypted
    5. Wipe Data,Cache and Dalvik cache
    6. Flash the ROM
    7. Install Magisk if you want (v25.2 or newer are recommended)
    8. Install the
    ForcedEncryption disabler if you want to keep your Data unencrypted
    9. Reboot to System and #KeepEvolving


    Update / Dirty Flash from the system's updater app
    You can install OTA update from the system's updater app if your Data is encrypted, you only need the current EvolutionX recovery for Cepheus or a compatible recovery like the ones recommended above. If you acomplish these requirements, go to Settings/System/Updates, check for updates, download it if available and apply it, the system will do the rest rebooting in recovery, installing the update and rebooting the system.
    It's not recommended to update using the system's updater app if you disabled the forced encryption previously since the process described above doesn't include the encryption disabler so your device wouldn't boot the system after installing the update and you would be stuck in the recovery being forced to Format Data and re-install the ROM.​

    Update / Dirty Flash manually from the custom recovery
    1. Download the proper ROM ZIP for your device
    2. Reboot to recovery (these with decryption support are recommended)
    3. Wipe Cache and Dalvik Cache

    4.Flash the ROM
    5. Install the ForcedEncryption disabler if your data was non encrypted before
    6. Install Magisk if you want (v25.2 or newer are recommended)
    7. Reboot to System and #KeepEvolving
