Development [ROM] [OFFICIAL] ArrowOS 11.0 [android-11.0][vayu/bhima]

NO, use mi flash tool in fastboot mode :
look at the bottom, there is an option to relock the bootloader after flashing the firmware.

Be very careful to choose the right firmware for your variant !

ok thx for your help

 

[juergen46]

NO, you can still unlock it ... but if you relock it one more time you must wait 1 month

or/

use another sim + another Mi account

**** this is a very long time :-(

Hi Guys, been using this ROM for more or less 18hrs now. It's been performing great and no issue so far.

My question is, is there a way to add auto hide function on the NAV BAR?

 

[juergen46]

NO, you can still unlock it ... but if you relock it one more time you must wait 1 month

or/

use another sim + another Mi account

My Poco is unlocked more than 8 month, so when i do this now for the second time Xiaomi will lock may Phone for 168 hour?

Thanks so much for your tips, but thank goodness I found another solution that is so simple that you may not believe it and especially the bootloader did not have to be locked.
I got myself an official Fastboot tgz firmware, unpacked it and simply flashed the persist.img file with TWRP, rebooted and lo and behold, all sensors work again and that without closing the bootloader.
Thanks for your help though, even though I didn't follow your tips you guys are still the best support when it comes down to it.

I wish everyone a nice Sunday, mine is now thank God also saved

Check your DRM keys now, i think you didn't get it !

It's all good. A few hours ago I switched back from Stock to ArrowOS.
As I said, it is not necessary to close the bootloader, I was very surprised by this statement. Sometimes you think so complicated, although the simplest way leads to the goal

Is this compatible for installation in Miui V12.5.7 Stock? Thanks.

I installed ArrowOS 11 (with gapps) on my Poco X3 Pro yesterday. I had some false starts and some figuring out to do, it wasn't a smooth process but that's my own fault for not following the guides properly. First time I was stuck on a boot screen and it would just no go anywhere (waited for an hour) but after that I installed TWRP again, wiped everything, installed ArrowOS etc. and everything worked. Don't know what I managed to screw up the first time.

This ROM seems very smooth and responsive, of course I've only had a short time to test everything out. Coming from MIUI latest, the interface seemed a bit barebones and less "fancy" than that, but I think that's the point and it's growing on me. Also it's of course massively less bloated which is just what I wanted. MIUI looked nice but it had so much going on, everything asking for consent to access my personal information, a lot of apps I didn't want or need that i couldn't remove and so on. ArrowOS is very clean and with a lot of customization options for stuff I need.

The camera quality seems somewhat poorer compared to before ,with a quick test. Not a big deal for me and I hear that Gcam can help a lot there, so that's something I need to take a look at later.

The touch controls were interesting, but one thing I was wondering with the gesture navigation that's on default. Is there a way to disable left side swipe? Many apps some sort of drawer that is visible by swiping from the left (the files app for example) and I don't seem to be able to get them to show with a swipe from left when the gesture control is on, without the dead zone setting. But with the dead zone setting, I still have a lot of accidental swipes back. Of course the drawer still shows up by pressing the top left "hamburger button" but that's a bit inconvenient IMO. If there was a way to disable swiping from left and only have it on for swiping from right and bottom, to me the gesture control would be a lot better.

Dear kubersharma,

many thanks for your great work. I am using this beautiful ROM since summer 2021 and so far I had no problems with it. All apps I use are from F-Droid store.

Since Arrow 11 Version from December 2021 I have a problem with "Simple Mobile Tools Calendar" app and "Simple Mobile Tools Gallery" app. Both apps are included in your ROM. I cannot update both apps anymore. The update procedure in F-Droid failed with "wrong signature" or something like that. When I install the app via adb command I get the follwing error message.



What can I do to fix the error?

Everyone have that issue, it's because he uses releases from google market and not f-droid, simply uninstall them as system apps, restart your phone then install them from F-Droid and it works fine! (This goes for duckduckgo, calendar and gallery apps they are all in SYS).
I don't know why the dev wants them in SYS to begin with? (1 thing doh, every OTA it will be overwritten back to sys so you need to do the same thing all over again which can be tedious, so make sure back up events in calender etc).

Wonderfull VANILLA rom, using it with Magisk and MinMicroG-NoGoolag, fast startup and no pesky background connections so far (using afwall+ donate version), i did debloat Arrow stats (sry) / Bookmark Provider, intent verification service & "google assistant", I also uninstalled Duckduckgo + Calender + Gallery as system apps and reinstalled them as normal apps so they could be uppgraded via F-Droid, the inbuilt camera can't be updated either but I will go custom GCam / Opencam so no issue there.

There is one issue/bug i encountered so far, when installing apps from F-Droid / APK manager / etc the app icons ends up on Home Screen, but when installing apps from Aurora Store the apps do not add themself to the Home Screen!

"Add app icons to Home Screen" in ArrowOS settings = enabled.

I've tested another launcher (Lawnchair) and that one adds the apps without any issue from Aurora Store to the home screen!

Has anyone else encountered this?

edit: tested nova(7) launcher and it has the same issue as arrowos launcher, weird that Lawnchair works, it hasnt been updated since 2019.
edit2: LOGS

@kubersharma Evening, i know you are probably busy with alot of projects and people wanting help, may i ask if u had the time to review the log for the apps not automaticly adding to homescreen from aurora store? Could you reproduce it?

Did anyone else experience this bug?

If you found a bug and want to report it, you should use the bug report page on gitlab and attack the log there. Dev do not read much this forum.

@kubersharma If there was a way to restrict buttons and gestures during games or boost ram, the gesture control and gameplay would be a lot better.

 

[mackeev]

a quick question for users of this ROM: is there Hand Wave option in Ambient Display (or anywhere)? Is it working?

Does anyone has issues where some AR application do not work properly and you only get a black screen as if the camera isn't working (even though permission to the camera is enabled?).

Example of application where I ran into that issue is ARLOOPA: AR Camera Scanner App

When I try to add an object into "reality", I can see the object, but the background (what the camera should see) is completely black.

I have also had the issue in a game which works fine on a stock ROM on a Samsung Tablet.

We use direct developer releases from their github source repos/releases not from Fdroid, (fyi, fdroid builds are differently signed with their keys and so are play store one's)

I tried to change my Bluetooth-MAC address on AOS11, when I changed it in data/vendor/mac_addr/bt.mac and restarted, it got me a randomized bluetooth MAC.

Now i tried

adb shell getprop | grep mac

as that was something someone told me to do, but I haven't got a success.

How can I change my BT MAC-Address?

[r0tati0n]

Is it possible to adjust the Nav Bar buttons on the 3 button bar?
I would like to have the back button on the right, instead of left.


NEEEEEVERMIND....
That setting in in Buttons, not in Gestures.
