[ROM][BETA][10.x] LineageOS 17.1 [clover / MiPad4/ MiPad4 Plus]

[mikefnz]

What do I need to do, if coming from Paranoid android and so much custom changes , just flash mi firmware and then flash this rom?

I just did a clean install.
All good.

You probably has the correct security vendor patch.
I did flash a xiaomi Fw update from attached link before upgrading to this rom.

Maybe that is the reason for the different dates in security vendor patch?

Mine is the WiFi only version, do I still need to flash a firmware?

How to just update the vendor (and modem?!), when i'm on LineageOS already?

 

[bahuy2003]

All things work well for me! My device goes very smoothly. Thank you very much for good rom!

I have been using Havoc-OS v2.8 for a while and thinking to switch to the latest LineageOS since I had really good experience with it in the pass.
It didn't let me down this time either. I flashed this ROM + Gapp Micro. The initial start-up/setup process was surprising quick and smooth.
I've been only using it for less than 24 hours and I'm already impressed with this ROM.
Everything is a lot smoother and snappier than Havoc-OS, gesture mode is really easy to use the responsive
Video play back was great, flawless Bluetooth connection.
My only very minor problem is the Trebuchet Launcher which you can set the grid size...and tap to sleep did not work, tap to wake works though
I will give 9.8/10 to this ROM so far

Lineage 2 revolution hangs almost immediately after you start attacking mobs. It hangs every time. Device reboot, start game, game hangs, reboot, start game, hangs, again, again and again.

Hi all,
I'm on HAVOC PIE (clover). Do i need to format data to install this rom ?

Hi all,
I'm on HAVOC PIE (clover). Do i need to format data to install this rom ?

Read all on page1.
I tried without wiping data and failed obviously at first.
So just follow the instructions and all will be good.

I'm using Los 17 for two days and i find it perfect. Everything works to perfection, it is also smooth and fast. I hope that very soon will be possible to use third-party launcher with Android 10 gestures. Thanks to developer for your work!

Lineage 17.0 ROM Testing (Personal Build)

Hello all,

My Kindle Fire HDX (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fire_HDX) has grown quite old (2013), so I started looking for a replacement a few months ago. After some research, I came across the Xiaomi Mi Pad 4 which has very nice technical specifications. I decided to give it a try and ordered a "test" device (8" wifi-only) about 3 weeks ago. It was delivered yesterday.

We should all thank @rcstar6696 and the rest of the contributors at https://github.com/xiaomi-sdm660 as the work they have done for this device is EXCELLENT. I was easily able to check out the sources and run my own test build of this ROM.

This afternoon, I flashed my personal userdebug build signed with public keys which has selinux disabled.

My process went like this:

1. The device came with MIUI 10.3.1 installed and was already bootloader unlocked
2. Downloaded the TWRP.img linked in this post (twrp_clover-3.3.1.img) as well as the BETA Gapps for Android 10.
3. Downloaded the last MIUI v10 build from Xiaomi.Eu (Built 2019-08-30ish):
   https://sourceforge.net/projects/xi...i.eu_multi_MIPAD4_9.8.29_v10-8.1.zip/download
4. Entered fastboot and `fastboot boot twrp_clover-3.3.1.img` to enter TWRP (didn't flash recovery yet)
5. Placed the newest MIUI on the internal storage and flashed the update. I did this to make sure my bootloader and firmwares were as new as they could be. From here on out, I don't expect Xiaomi to provide any further updates for this device.
6. Rebooted the device afterward to make sure everything booted
7. Entered fastboot again and `fastboot boot twrp_clover-3.3.1.img` to enter TWRP (still didn't flash recovery yet)
8. Made a backup of everything and moved it to my local HD (important to have these: mostly for the persist backup)
9. Rebooted back to bootloader and flashed recovery this time: `fastboot flash recovery twrp_clover-3.3.1.img` and `fastboot reboot` while holding the Volume Up button to enter recovery.
10. In TWRP, I placed my build of Lineage 17.0 and the BETA Gapps.zip on the internal storage and flashed them.
11. I then wiped the device and rebooted

In general, Lineage 17.0 runs extremely well on the Mi Pad 4. Clearly there are a few failures below, but most have nothing to do with the ROM (GApps or SELinux disabled issues). Here is an itemized breakdown of my testing:

[NOTES]

personal build: public keys
selinux: disabled
BETA Gapps used: Android 10 "full" size 10/6

Launcher issues:
- Pixel Launcher Crashed -- probably beta GApps

Camera issues:
- There are 2 camera apps in my build: com.android.camera and com.android.camera2

com.android.camera application:
- Recorded Front Camera "Short Video" then app crashed when toggling to Rear Cam (Wasn't able to duplicate)
- No audio recorded from Front Camera "Short Video" for my first try (Wasn't able to duplicate)
- Front Camera video is very squashed after my first video recorded
- Setting Video to 720p manually every time before recording video fixes format aspect ratio.
(If you see close zoom of face it will record incorrectly)

com.android.camera2 application:
- Things worked a bit better but didn't spend as much time changing settings

screen recorder:
- Hung / crashed the device

youtube 4k viewing:
- Limited to 1080p view (which seems oddly correct vs. 2160p limit on stock)

I will perform more rebuilds enabling SELinux and custom signing keys as well as experimenting with the fingerprint info that is current in the clover repo (it's for Wayne device) and post my results.

Hello Hash, your and ggow's contributions to LineageOS for Fire HDX will not be forgotten. If it wasn't for the stupid micro-USB charging port, I would still have been using it today. Welcome to the clover-field.

Thx for the review
We have 2 camera because i added miui camera and snap camera from lineage. So i think two camera apps are not an issue.

About your camera issues. This is a modded miui cam to work on 10 so i was already excepting not everything will be fine.

Screenrecoder is known and work in progess by lineage guys

About youtube. I will take a look never noticed it

Selinux is not disabeld its just set to permissive which is normal at this stage i guess only a handfull device are useing enforcing in 10 yet.

About fingerprint we use wayne fingerprint because clover is not certified android device. So we have to use other one. But due the restrictions google introduced not even this seems possible atm. Noe fingeprint must match security patch. So we need to use diffrent fingerprint in future. Question is which one

Yep, me too, but I think these things are to be expected, it's still beta ?

Not directly a problem for android Q its Caf problem in kernel. The used kernel is based on Q tag and the wifi driver seems not working properly yet. I assume it will be fixed by caf in future releases. We already invastigate that.

Official Netflix won't show up in Play Store until SafetyNet shows "PASS" on all 4 tests, IIRC.

Awesome ROM, many thanks.

I have a question anyway, maybe @rcstar6696 can answer this.
My MiPad does not support multiple USB-OTG connections at the same time, e.g. charging and streaming music via USB while connected with an USB-OTG Hub.
Do you know if this is a hardware or kernel/software related issue?
My Galaxy S9 is supporting multiple USB connections with a USB-OTG Hub.

Many thanks
