I had November pixelOs, then I updated and there was an error that applications were closing. After that, I tried to installed the test rom PixelOS_lisa_13.0-20230124, which you wrote about a few days ago, it is on google drive. The error with the applications has been corrected, but now I can not format data.

Interesting, I didn't have the issue because I wiped my data on the november version and then installed the new rom.

Hi folks,

First, thank you to the team who built this ROM. Having used Pixels and gotten used to that setup, it was nice to see that on my Xiaomi device.

After using the stock ROM for months, yesterday I installed LineageOS, then Xiaomi.eu, then changed to PixelOS in order to try out the camera setup. I followed the clean flash instructions, got the PixelOS recovery, and installed smoothly.

Now I have three issues:

1) I want to try ArrowOS, but the PixelOS recovery gives me an error that downgrading is not allowed, and all the ArrowOS images have timestamps earlier than the `PixelOS_lisa-13.0-20230123-0832.zip` image I flashed. How can I enable downgrading? Or would switching to a different recovery enable downgrading?

2) The device randomly reboots. Sometimes it reboots after 5 minutes, and sometimes after over an hour of use.

3) In indoor lighting, the screen brightness goes up and down almost constantly. So far it actually doesn't bother me, but if I can have more steady screen brightness, I would like that.

thanks for reading!

To switch to Arrowos you need to install eu first. Enable One shot auto-brightness under auto-brightness for screen brightness. Install atom x kernel in the topic for reboots

About 1: You can install an older version of PixelOS recovery to flash ArrowOS, probably.

About 2: There is a testing release available somewhere above that fixes the reboot issue, there is also going to be a new official release soon.

Given the "no downgrading" error, I was afraid the EU install script might brick the device. I will try it.

Thanks for the suggestion, but I don't want to deal with installing a different kernel at this point.

Nope, I tried installing PixelOS 12.1 yesterday, and it gave the same "downgrading not allowed" error.

Here's what I did:
  1. I successfully installed and booted EU.
  2. Then I booted OrangeFox recovery, and used `adb sideload orangefox.zip` to install it. I wanted to use it to install ArrowOS, but...
  3. the device only booted to fastboot, even when I `fastboot reboot recovery`.
  4. So, I did `fastboot flash` commands for PixelOS clean install, and
  5. still the device only booted to fastboot.
  6. So I used the EU clean install script, and
  7. I had EU booted and working correctly.
  8. Booted to fastboot with hardware buttons.
  9. Flashed boot.img and vendor_boot.img from PixelOS.
  10. fastboot reboot recovery
  11. in PixelOS recovery, adb sideload arrowos.zip
  12. DOWNGRADE NOT ALLOWED.
  13. adb sideload orangefox.zip, device starts sideload, seems to finish successfully
  14. devices reboots and hangs on first splash screen with MI in white box.
  15. after many attempts, hardware buttons get me back to fastboot.
  16. Download the PixelOS boot.img for v12, and fastboot flash that and the vendor_boot I already had.
  17. fastboot reboot recovery, hangs on first splash screen.
  18. hardware buttons back to fastboot screen
  19. give up and install EU again.
  20. device reboots to EU recovery, I choose "reboot to system"
  21. device turns off
  22. power button, here's EU recovery.
  23. "safe mode" boots successfully, I go through initial setup
  24. reboot from screen ("regular" way)
  25. system boots normally.
I don't understand what happened.

Maybe if I install an Android 12 version of EU, then I could install ArrowOS v12?

Why does PixelOS recovery stop me from downgrading? Even PixelOS 12 cannot be installed.

You cannot downgrade from Android 13 to Android 12.1. First you need to flash Android 12 fastboot rom.

Ok, thanks for the tip. I see that MIUI EU v13 (which might be Android 12 or 12.1) lists lisa as recovery install, not fastboot install. Before that, MIUI EU v12 (Android 11) does list lisa as fastboot install. So, is that my best option, or are there other fastboot ROMs for lisa?

The latest release (PixelOS_lisa-13.0-20230123-0832.zip) keeps randomly rebooting.

I first tried a clean install with full wipe and boot + vendor + fw flashing.

I then tried flashing different firmwares from https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/firmware/lisa/ :
- V14.0.4.0.TKOEUXM (A13)
- V13.0.8.0.SKOMIXM (A12)

I also tried flashing a diferent kernel:
- Yuki kernel Lisa [Mi 11 Lite 5G NE] - 5.4.210-Yuki-lisa-20221117-2048-3f93d296.zip

None of these approaches have solved the rebooting problem. Anyone having the same issue?

The next step will be flashing an older PixelOS version, as I didn't have this problem before.

    There's no way you don't have any magisk modules installed. I won't be able to help unless you're ready to come clean. I've mentioned this before and I'll say it again. If you're using any additional magisk modules then you must mention it.

    Code: 
    02-16 11:12:20.193  1782  3756 I ActivityTaskManager: START u0 {act=miui.intent.action.SYSTEM_PERMISSION_DECLARE pkg=com.miui.securitycenter (has extras)} from uid 10064
02-16 11:12:20.194  2551  2551 E [email protected]: requestCtaDialog fail cause:android.content.ActivityNotFoundException: No Activity found to handle Intent { act=miui.intent.action.SYSTEM_PERMISSION_DECLARE pkg=com.miui.securitycenter (has extras) }
    This isn't normal behavior, system files have been altered in some way or the other.

    I don't think so, but idk. If so, you could try Magisk hide on Photos. If you need magic eraser badly, you could try things like downgrading/ reinstalling Photos app. First you'd have to uninstall it with root uninstaller, I use App2sd, and reboot. Then source the apk yoursel(apk mirror etc). Out of curiosity I tried to get ME to work myself today and followed this tutorial. Magisk eraser was avaible as a feature, but it wasn't removing any selected areas, it did nothing.

    Got magic eraser feature yesterday without doing anything, turns out it was a server rollout and did not depend on the app version. It got rolled out in cycles, a few users got it earlier than others.

    Thanks. I used the command but MIUI camera still won't open.

    I enabled USB debugging in dev options, allowed PC access, and used the command. It didn't give any error, so I suppose the command was sent successfully?

    It won't open at all, or it won't open sometimes? If it's not opening at all, that must be something else. Did you flash any camers modules or tried to update the camera app? The resolotion suggested by whyredFire completly solved the problem for me.

    Do you mean flash the rom and firmware a second time might help? I flashed the rom and fw using adb sideload to begin with, and before that, I did factory reset in recovery.
    I've tried factory reset in the system settings. Didn't help.

*
* 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.

    Could you send a more detailed installation tutorial please?
    Click to expand...
    Click to collapse
    After struggIing a little bit I've finally done it. I didn't have any knowledge about any of it before doing this. So I'm not an expert but here is a more detailed guide:

    - Assuming you unlocked your bootloader. If you didn't, first you need to unlock it: Bootloader Unlocking Guide

    - Download the Latest Android Platform Tools and after exctracting it, move it to the main "C:" folder.

    - Download Recovery (boot.img) and move it to the same "Platform Tools" folder that we copied to the "C:"

    - Download ROM and don't exctract it or rename it. Also move it to the same folder.

    - Download Latest Firmware and also move this to the same folder that we copied to the "C:"

    - Download Mi Flash Tool. After downloading it, open the program and select the driver tab and install it.

    - Activate the Developer Options in your phone by Settings > About Phone > Tap on MIUI Number 7 times.

    - Search "Developer Options" in the settings and open it. There is an "Usb Debugging" option, enable it.

    - Connect your phone to the PC. And choose the File Transfer Mode from your phone's notifications.

    - Turn off your phone. After that press the Volume Down + Power Button together a few seconds until you see it enter into the Fastboot mode.

    - Open the Platform Tools folder that we moved in to the "C:" and type "cmd" into the Windows Explorer's folder direction bar and press Enter.

    - Type "adb shell" in to the command prompt that opened. (If it didn't recognise the command, type ".\adb shell" and use ".\" before any command I give after this.)

    - Type "fastboot devices". You should see your device. If you couldn't, then check the drivers or install the drivers again from Mi Flash Tool. If you still can't see your device and also can't see it in the Device Manager(Windows) then you probably using a diffrent USB-C cable. Try using the original one. If it still didn't solve the problem, try a diffrent PC or an USB Output.

    - Type "fastboot flash boot boot.img". You should see it installing. Wait before it finishes.

    - Type "fastboot reboot recovery". You should see your phone entering into the recovery mode. If it didn't, press Power Button few seconds until it shot down. Then press Volume Up + Power Button few seconds until you see it entering into the recovery mode.

    - By using Volume Up and Down and Power Buttons you can navigate the recovery menu from your phone. So select "Wipe Data/Factory Reset" and confirm.

    - After that go back to the Main Menu and select "Apply update".

    - Open the command prompt from your PC again if you closed it and type "adb sideload
    PixelOS_lisa-12.1-20220622-1650.zip" (the ROM file should be named this. If your file's name is diffrent, type that instead.)

    - It should start installing. If this didn't, then you probably missed some steps from this guide. So please check that if you have the latest Platrfom Tools(adb) and that you download it from the official site. Also don't open it from the PowerShell Window, open it from the "cmd" like I said and make sure that it's in the main "C:" disc. Also try closing and opening again your PC and your phone before proceeding the second time.If it didn't start after all this and said cannot read the file, then you should try this: Large Adress Aware Program .

    - Only do this next 2 steps if there is new firmware update or you are flashing this rom from any other rom. If you are just updating your ROM and there is no new firmware update, ignore this next 2 steps.

    - After installing sideload reboot to recovery again. Then go into the "Apply Update" again from your phone.

    - Open the command prompt from your PC again type "adb sideload fw_lisa_miui_LISAGlobal_V13.0.4.0.SKOMIXM_0508eaacfa_12.0.zip" (the firmware file should be named this. If your file's name is diffrent, type that instead.)

    - After installing, navigate trough recovery menu again and select the "Reboot System".

    - It's Done!!!

    It's not modded in any sort, the sources used by PE or most other roms are open source and anyone can fork them and modify them according to their requirements, that's exactly what I did. This is not a GSI/ ported rom, it has been properly compiled from the sources.
