how to use miracast with bluetooth speakers working???
i tried connect TV with speakers but audio just go on TV
 
Is it possible to fully revert to MIUI? Locked bootloader, with no signs of custom rom-ing and all. Asking in case I massively **** something up, somehow. The warranty for my tablet has not ended yet.

1. Is SElinux enforced?
2. Is it encrypted?
3. What is the security patch version currently?
4. Is it easy to move between OS-es? In case I change my mind.
5. Is island's work profile working fine?
6. Pre-installed apps?
7. Will the techies from Xiaomi find out that I have a history of changing roms during warranty? For example Knox for Sammy .
8. Known major bugs?
9. Do you regret going from MIUI to ArrowOS?
10. Is face unlock working?

Saw that arrow 12.1 has a thermal profile tool, but didn't find this feature on the 13,0 version. It's present?

Hey. I cannot answer all your questions but a few. 3. I'm unsure. Look yourself in the settings. 4. Depends on what easy means for you. Reverting to MIUI is very easy. Just use the Mi Flash Tool in Fastboot Mode and it's done. 5. This is a GApps Variant. If there are apps you don't want, Root your device and use the debloater. 7. As long as you are on MIUI and your Bootloader is locked after you've returned to MIUI with Mi Flash Tool (use 3th option: Clean all and lock), they won't know and you've kinda regained your warranty. If you get an Hardware issue while your Bootloader is unlocked, Xiaomi won't do anything for you because your warranty isn't active anymore. 8. Many people including me have a bug which let's the screen freeze and sound dsapperaring every few seconds which is really annoying. If you want to play games, don't use this ROM. Except for that, in Settings the screen bugs sometimes. Furthermore, the battery life is okay but MIUI charges faster and has a better battery life. That are the only issues I've experienced. For studying, this ROM isn't not bad at all. 9. I did, that's why I'm now back on MIUI 14 Global which in my oppinion is better. 10. Yes, but it can be easily tricked with a picture. Hope this helps you.

No more updates for this ROM?
Until now the developer didn't say that but could be because there aren't any updates since 3 months. I guess there won't be any new updates for this ROM and that's why I'm back on MIUI. I'm going to try out the new AwakenOS and if you want I can tell you about the experience.

Yeah at least arrow itself doesn't seem dead, but sadly out maintainer @K001droid has 0 activity on git, for any project, for 2 month now. Maybe he is just on a long vacation or time off. Still a bit worrisome.

2. Encrypted, well mine is, I made no attempt not to
3. Android security update 05.01.23
9. No! I don't regret using any rom other than MIUI!! Can't stand MIUI but like the devices...

Actually, I don't know. I never really use this feature and I didn't know you can change from where the sound comes while Screen Casting. I mostly use my Laptop with Windows via HDMI where the sound output can be easily changed.

not detecting my wifi 5ghz.
Yes. All Custom ROMs for this device don't seem to use 5G but they'll list the Network as 2.4 anyway.

Edit: Sorry for this wrong information. At least on Awaken OS and in unofficial ROMs for this device 5Ghz isn't used. I don't know about ArrowOS because I've changed the ROM immediately because of too many bugs etc. Screen Freezing and much more issues. I don't recommend this ROM. But I don't feel that the Network is slower when using 2.4 instead of 5Ghz. This can variate from every network, country and things like that.

when i check the sound output it comes to BT speaker but it's playing on TV
after i changed to this tablet it won't change anything
p/s: i tried MIUI and it goes on BT speaker as well

    Vanilla builds don't boot since the update to 13.1 as @scattman_ and some other people reported.
    This can be fixed by adding permissions:
    `com.android.hotwordenrollment.okgoogle` and `com.android.hotwordenrollment.xgoogle` require `KEYPHRASE_ENROLLMENT_APPLICATION` and `INTERACT_ACROSS_USERS`.

    @K001droid If you could confirm this is really the cause, could you please update the official build? Thank you for maintaining the ROM!
    Releasing new build with fixes for vanilla build and android intelligence crash.

    For android intelligence you should disable sms permission

    Great
    Thanks for the suggestion but I have fixed it, I think the problem is that I was extracting the boot from slot a being arrow in slot b, or vice versa. No idea, but extracting the boot with that method and patching with Magisk still works.
    Great. Anyways I always Sideload Magisk. Seems a bit easier for me.

    Just to let people know, Vanilla is still broke, stuck at the arrow logo again. Is there any way to reach out to the maintainer? 3 out of the last 4 builds have been broke now and he dosnt seem to check on here.

    Hello, guys. I have been super busy so I may not be posting anything on XDA and hardly anything over my TG channels. OTAs will keep releasing/builds will be up on the website.
    ALSO:
    I do not own the Xiaomi Keyboard, it seems the latest changes broke it for some users which should be fixed in the latest release.

    A lot of people are asking me if this is a good tablet for art or not. I am a simple man and have very basic tablet needs. I do not own a pen (too expensive) nor can I draw something good. Please, can someone with a pen or knowledge of apps which works best for artists give their short insights so I can refer people here?

    Planning to buy a Mi pen to support it
    if anyone is donating, please mention "nabu" or "mipad5" in the payment description
    Gonna save for it, those donations will help

    edit: Mi pen is now supported from 14/oct builds :D
