  • Nearly done! Migration cleanup is mostly done. There are a small number of issues left that we continue to work on, but all the heavy lifting is done.

AOSP-CAF 8.1 for Xiaomi A1
Code:
/*
 * Your warranty is now maybe void.
 *
 * We are 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 us for messing up your device, we will laugh at you.
 *
 */
What's AOSP?
AOSP is Android as Google publish without other modifications. More or less AOSP is the Nexus devices stock rom without gapps.
We added few non-AOSP features for a better user experience and we NOT going to add something other.
What's CodeAurora Forums?
Code Aurora Forum (CAF) is a consortium of companies with projects serving the mobile wireless industry. Software projects it concerns itself with are e.g. Android for MSM, Femto Linux Project, LLVM, MSM WLAN and Linux-MSM. Code Aurora is basically AOSP plus all Qualcomm specific enhancements and optimization.

Bugs
* WiFi hotspot (need to reboot after using it or wifi breaks)

FAQ
Why is the security patch older then the latest AOSP patch?
CAF focus on delivering the latest hardware patches and are usually about a month behind Google on security patches, on the other hand, Google is usually a month or more behind on them on caf patches (sometimes months). No point in complaining about it, if you want the latest security patch, go with an AOSP based rom (like PixelExperience), if you want latest qualcomm optimizations for our hardware as well as fixes, go with caf, its as simple as that.

I'm having an issue with X third party app/module/hack
Talk to the dev of that thing, not me. if the dev has a solution I need to implement that won't effect others, have him contact me

Can you add X feature like traffic meter?
No! this is pure aosp-caf. Only support for exfat and advanced power + button support was added, no stupid non stock UI tricks

Installation
Same as all other roms here:
1. Wipe data if coming from another custom rom
2. Install ROM
3. Flash TWRP
4. reboot into twrp
5. Flash GAPPS
6. Flash magisk
7. reboot

link for download?
Will be up when its done uploading
Selinux permissive? Some banking apps don't run if it's set as permissive. It'd be really helpful if it's enforcing
Non of the roms have selinux enforced yet, we are working on addressing the denials but for now just use magisk hide no? I think its should work, at least it works for me... otherwise can't help until we get selinux working right

Yeah, man but unfortunately there's some apps that are still detecting root even after using magisk hide.
