[ROM][9.0][grus][unofficial] HavocOS v2.7

[faust93]

HavocOS v2.7 22/07/2019
During my spare time doing some experiments with custom ROM building for MI9SE, so decided to share may be it'll be useful for those who like AOSP expirience instead of "polished" MIUI.
Compared to "general GSI" images it feels much better and almost everything works at first glance, but need to test more of course..

BUGS:
There are some for sure, waiting to be discovered..

TODO
Fix SELinux policy. Keep it as "permissive" as for now.

Installation & Requirements

Reqs:
1. Unlocked BL and TWRP installed
2. Running MIUI global or PE (yep, it's all about Treble so we're going to use vendor's blob and firmware)

Installation
1. Boot into twrp, format data, swipe to factory reset, reboot back into twrp
2. flash Havoc-OS-v2.7-20190722-grus-Unofficial.zip
3. Flash gapps & magisk (if needed)
4. Reboot and pray || enjoy !
5. In case of bootloop (for me everything works without this step): flash vbmeta.img with fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img (check GSI topics to obtain vbmeta file)

FaceUnlock module which works for me. Flash it using TWRP:

Optionally you can flash latest ANXCamera for MIUI camera experience.

I have a few questions:

1) format data - do you really mean format data? Do I have to wipe internal storage completely or do you mean "wipe data, cache, dalvik cache"?

2) which ROMs work as base ROM? is Xiaomi.eu beta possible? Or only official global rom?

3) coming from MIUI - will encryption be a problem at any point during installation? I would like to try your rom but I don't really want to risk loosing my internal storage due to encryption problems...

1. Yes, Format the entire data, if you're come from anything besides this ROM itself.

3. Yup, for example; even if flashing back the Global Stable from Xiaomi.eu's ROM, you can't keep your encrypted data too. So, that's why you should format the data

Definitely going to try this as I'm using the GSI and it's working great.
Hope the ANX camera works in this one.

Can i use miui dev to flash this rom?
Btw, can you add dc dimming in this rom?

 

[okitavera]

- Wlan, Mobile Data, NFC : works.
- Camera (normal, wide, front) : works pretty well (I'm using MGC_6.2.030_MI9SE_V4_plus2 right now).
- Fingerprint : works as expected like the GSI's version (not as fast as miui and don't expect for an FOD while screen off or in ambient display).
- Double tap to wake : perfect (yes it is).


Bugs that I know :
- Statusbar is untouchable. (I have to back to the launcher since it has swipe down gesture if I want to saw notification/qs)
- MTP is recognized but I can't open it on my system (Arch Linux x86_64, Thunar FM from xfce4 desktop)
- No Smart Lock or Face Unlock option yet


Status :
- Havoc v2.7 w/ the built-in kernel.
- OpenGapps arm64 9.0 nano (build 20190704)
- Magisk 19.3 stable

How can you boot into this rom?I always boot into fastboot

I just follows the instruction (flash global rom because I'm on miui dev, then format data, install the rom, gapps, and magisk)

Only way to pull down the status bar is from the notch, or changing the "display cutout" to tall display cutout in the developer options.
MTP is working fine in macOS.

Thx for the report!
Trying to figure out wtf is wrong with notifications pulldown menu, currently it can be pulled from the notch area or landscape mode only.
Btw MTP works OK on MacOS as for me.

 

[elpaablo]

Please add face unlock. I'm so used to it that I don't use fingerprint anymore.

Great to see that the wide angle is working! Looking forward to the development of this! ?

 

[joonhkt]

Ah, great ! A full AOSP release, I was waiting for it.

Thanks a lot !

I guess it's impossible export/import message, images, contact, etc. without the google account?

 

[lymantou]

I have been waiting this for a long time , great job!:laugh::laugh::laugh:

 

[ebautista]

After flashing okita kernel, issues like lagging and top bar swipe are fixed. For me i guess

OMG it works indeed!
Seems I've messed up something while playing with touchscreen fresh firmware and drivers..
Flashing can be considered as a temporary fix at the moment.
Going to use upstream okita in the next build.
