Excellent rom. No bugs. GPS works, camera works like in MIUI, including HDR.
Xpose works well. Does not have music apk. Not many bells&whistles, but very crisp and fast.
Too early for the battery, but looks OK.

What kind of launcher is in this ROM? Is it trebuchet? Can you/anybody post some screens of their UI? :) Thank you

Short review

First of all thanks to @aniket.lamba and Spike Lab Team for the wonderful ROM :highfive:

Here is the short review:
1. First things first, it is very stable... no issues at all.
2. All the sensors and basic stuffs are working as they should. Compass, GPS, accelerometer, etc, all fine.
3. It is quite smooth but I felt it could be little more smoother though. So to check, I installed Kernel Adiutor and found the default I/O is set to Deadline. Played around with all the available I/O options. Found the sweet spot with Noop. After changing it to Noop it feels very smooth. SIO is very near to it as well.
4. It seems to me a pure AOSP ROM, no bells and whistles... So people who are looking for tons of customizations may look elsewhere (you can use xposed though but I haven't used it yet so won't comment)... But for a person like me stability has a higher priority than customization, so I am all good here :D
5. NO HEATING ISSUES at all like in CM based ROMs. I never thought that I would add this point but the recent heating issues what I was faced in CM based ROMs was just too much (I used to feel my phone may explode anytime). The phone always stays cool with this ROM whether you play games, use apps or multitask.

** Downloaded and flashed the mini gapps from official Spike Lab website and you know what it is only 46.3MB in size :good: **

**Not attaching any SS as it is like any pure AOSP ROM. You may use CM themes though. **

Aniket, I have a query:
I have accidentally enabled 3 finger swipe to take screenshot. I want to disable it but couldn't find the setting for it. Could you please guide me...

Thanks :cool:

@aniket.lamba Bro, today I faced the No SIM issue once when I rebooted my Mi3. Just got curious and checked the metallium devices github and found that the commit which audahadi did (which actually solved the No SIM bug) is not present in the rooque's proprietary_vendor_xiaomi directory from which metallium devices's proprietary_vendor_xiaomi directory is forked.

So, I flashed the nosimfix zip and all is fine now. But it will be great if you pick that commit from audahadi's proprietary_vendor_xiaomi directory and apply in metallium devices :)

Thanks for all your efforts :good:
