[ROM][9.0][grus][unofficial] crDroid Android

[faust93]

So here's the thing: Magisk breaks face unlock. It works until I install it, it stops working after I install it and it works again after uninstall. The faceunlock zip file doesn't work for me.

Fingerprint works very well.

Battery drain over night is like Havoc: 12-14% (too much).

I don't use NFC and I didn't test BT calls. The rest seems ok. In fact there was something that always annoyed me and that its not present in crDroid: everytime I disabled one of the sim cards after mobile data use, i coudn't connect to my home network via wifi. I had to enable sim card again or enable and disable airplane mode. It happened to me in every ROM I tried, except this one.

It's great to use a non MIUI interface.

I would recommend you to try with different vendor blobs (try to install latest xiaomi.eu rom for example) and gapps (try BiTGapps which can be found here on xda, they've faceunlock included).
But even with OpenGapps (open_gapps-arm64-9.0-pico-20190704) + Magisk (v19.3) + FaceUnlock zip it works flawlessly, at least for me and some other users. So we have something different in your case.
As for night drain those numbers you have are quite HIGH. I have 3-4% over 8h so recommend you install BSS or GSam and check what eats your phone battery.

If is enable function "Smart Pixels" (It's a battery saving feature that turns off some of the screens pixels.) Fingerprint is not working - can't unlock.

Well, taking into account we have inscreen sensor (it depends on display backlight, smartpixel turns some display cells off) I guess that's an expected behavior

Flash QuickSwitch magisk module and set Lawnchair as a recents provider

It's working flawlessly now, thank you ?

The bugs that I noticed are: Screen does not turn off after screen timeout interval, NFC and BT in-call not working (as mentined in here https://t.me/GrusFamily (which you can join for help or questions)), and the fingerprint icon sometimes displays in the homescreen

Could you be more specific about NFC? Quite interesting because for me it works, at least I'm able to read my metro ticket with it.

BT incall working?

Yes it is!

 

[rzki03]

anyone coming from xiaomi.eu? is it safe to install this rom with xiaomi.eu as base?

 

[vecino]

@rzki03

yes it is ... ROM is using only firmware + vendor. I´am using xiaomi.eu dev and don´t have problem.

Maybe it is incompatible with some vendor version ?
I already test it to read my card balance and it also works perfectly

Yep, I also inclined to think those individual bug reports regarding features working for majority of the users are caused by incompatible vendor/firmware version.
Going to prepare vendor/firmware zip flashable along with the ROM.

SmartBar settings do not respect size of controls buttons and transparency.

It is a good idea to have vendor + firmware included in the ROM. :good:

If I go to settings - connected devices - connection preferences (bluetooth, NFC) -> ui is lagging / freezing for few seconds (5-10).

First of all, thanks for your roms! I'm using today's Xiaomi EU's FW/Vendor and everything seems ok.
I've just noticed a little idle drain consumption on Wi-Fi (and probably on 4G too) compared to the Havoc Gsi, with the same settings and the same Kowalski Kernel, but it could be also a bad battery calibration, I'll check it later with the new FW/Vendor.

As already said SmartBar doesn't have transparency working and most important Statusbar padding is bad, icons are way too spaced, most noticeable if you move clock on the right, with percentage battery and also day+number date.

On the volume panel, if I select the audio streams to be displayed at the same time when I press the button rocker, it displays always one stream, as if I haven't tweaked at all.

All of these bugs happened also with the older EU's FW/Vendor.


I hope you'll fix these bugs! Thank you.

Opengapps - face unlock (updated)

Who want to face unlock without flash http://xep.svr4.ru/mi9se/TWRP_Face-Unlock-9-Pie.zip so you need flash opengapps nano and higher. Because in pico is not included.

Package Comparison: https://github.com/opengapps/opengapps/wiki/Package-Comparison

Edit: This causes FC ... use PICO + http://xep.svr4.ru/mi9se/TWRP_Face-Unlock-9-Pie.zip

So, after a thousand tries all I had to do was install pico Gapps (I installed Nano) and the zip file... Thanks, Faust93. Faceunlock is working now (on top of latest stable eea) with Magisk intalled. I'm installing everything fresh (instead of recovering with Titanium) and see if I get better idle batery drain. It's the only problem left for me. Everything else (including UI) is working fine. I don't think I'm going back to MIUI.

Here faceunlock works with magisk. Actually I flashed it with Magisk.
BT incall also working out of the box

Here faceunlock works with magisk,too. :laugh:

 

[kagazushi]

For me this rom is far better than all others.
The only thing I would change? In game it's not full screen. There is a black line to mask the notch...

 

[jaager]

Do I have to use Open GApps or can I also use MindTheGapps?

 

[vecino]

You can use both - choose what you want.

 

[alpwell]

After flashing it throws in Fastboot
