Hello

I have one question Do I have to update the Gapps package manually from time to time or is it not necessary ?

I use MindTheGapps

Thanks

Dirty flash (or OTA flash) no need to flash gapps again.
Hello

Thank you for your reply, I meant it more so if it is not a good idea to update the Gapps packages once in a while through security risks and new features.

For example, MindTheGapps releases a new version of their Gapps every now and then in which security risks will probably be fixed and new features added.

My understanding is that if I don't update my Gapps packages then my default apps for calling sms and so on will be outdated and possibly unsafe.

Hi guys. Tell me, will there be a kernel with support for wifi network adapters for Nethunter? Is there an instruction for building such a kernel?

9.5 works very good for me. Battery draining (tested with Gsam Pro) is very small compared to Lavender and Max 2 Oxygen.

It does say "clan flash mandatory"? I tried it via OTA, when it was suggested as an install with no warning whatsoever.

I then tried the OTA and it rebooted directly into recovery, with the error "init_user0_failed". A subsequent dirty flash didn't help either and I had to reinstall the previous version. Luckily this worked.

But if it requires a clean flash, then it shouldn't be offered as an OTA.

Hey all, we got a new update (check telegram).

It says "clean flash mandatory"

Anyone tried dirty flash?
I am on the update before that!
Probably because of this changelog entry:
"Reverted to MIUI 14.0.1 blobs".

Don't you just love it when the maintainer flips back and forth between incompatible sources 😶

You're right - it shouldn't be offered as an OTA update. I've always said that custom ROM devs should add "WIPE" or something similar in the ROM filename, so that users that don't read the changelog aren't left with a brick. Being stuck with an unbootable phone with official firmware isn't acceptable to users, so why should it be acceptable to custom ROM users? I know it's necessary, but just give people a warning.

That is not possible, just read the changelog before downloading. There is button for it in the updater
