Hi MrColdbird, I am trying to compile android myself, using your repositories. (BTW, amazing work!) Getting some error.
...
Am I perhaps missing something?
To answer myself: I had to add to .repo/manifests/snippets/lineage.xml this line:
Code:
<project path="packages/resources/devicesettings" name="android_packages_resources_devicesettings" remote="los" />
Also, there was no sound with Black-Seraph/kernel_xiaomi_nitrogen, so I used afr30010/android_kernel_xiaomi_nitrogen:ten-new. Then it finally worked.

Hi..

I am hoping someone can help me.

I have only just started trying stock Android roms and coming from Xiaomi.eu (MIUI 10 9.8.25) it feels a lot better (cleaner)

So far I am able to flash the latest Pixel Experience rom without any issues, but this rom is giving me an "Error 7" when I try to flash it in TWRP.

I have done a search and it seems it has something to do with ARB?

I have flashed the firmware linked to in the OP before trying to flash the latest rom but I keep on getting "Error 7"

Am I missing something?

That firmware does not work with recent iterations of this ROM, hence you need a more updated firmware:

I'm using firmware_9.12.26.zip hence i cannot make any statement about newer firmware versions, only that this one works and
your's, the older ones in general, don't.

I uploaded the file to my webserver, you can try to download, should work else let me know so i can try other means like dropbox to share the file with you.

Nevertheless i recommend to search on XDA where you find more info about firmware for this device, there are sources ;););)

Thanks, that firmware worked :good:

However, I find most of the custom roms a bit "laggy" compared to the Xiaomi.eu rom.

I gave most of the main Pie roms a try and I absolutely love to stock feel, but it's just not snappy enough.

If it happens that you are using an SD-Card in it's slot I recommend to remove it if it's not absolutely necessary for you.

I have no more lags and a few other glitches went away after i took it out for good.

It took me quite a while to find out but the difference is/was significant to say the least.

Same applies to touch delays etc.

Nooo, I am indeed using one yes. :(

Do you know why this happens? I mean, if the devs know about this it should surely be a simple fix or am I mistaken.

I very likely am as I know nothing about any of this :)

I might give it another go later..

Why it is i don't know because it has never been that important to me to dig deeper.

Further there once was a huge and in parts heated debate about lags etc. and most people obviously prefered to complain and demand
fixes while in fact it was easy to solve.

This device is not used by so many and even less of the owners root and customize their device which is why we should be very happy for what we got, even though there is close to zero further developmetn due to circumstances.

Usually i look early enough for a successor to be prepared should a device encounter a sudden death and i can tell that from the 2-3 comparable devices none has any developement worth to mention.

I want 18.5:9 max aspect ratio, all the tall narrow stuff does not serve the purpose for me. as phone i'm using several oneplus devices while this one is for my motorbike to provide music and navigation as well as radar warnings and i need 78mm mimimum width to be able to use the keyboard on highways, smaller is too narrow and too many typos occur.

As to your assumption, yes you are indeed mistake in the way that it is simple to fix. this kind of issues is often and most probably on firmware/kernel level and right now we don't even get android 10 in proper iterations because basic tools are missing.

I wish you that the device without SD-Card works better and fulfills the purpose that you exect from it. for me it does hence i'm happy with it as it is.

:highfive:

Thanks for all the info..

Sadly, taking out the SD card made no difference at all.

It's unfortunate because I really want to get away from miui and all it's restrictions..

Nevertheless there is a reason for your issues and in case that you are really interested i recommend to follow the following procedure as
linked:

The Tutorial has been made for another device but it's not device specific, except perhaps that nandroid backups are not so easy and reliable to switch back and forth between roms and versionsa anymore.

Key is that you install clean without any apps or tweaks or mods, no root and then test the specific behaviour you encounter now.

If you continue in small increments, the smaller the better but the longer it takes, you can narrow your issue down to a specific group of
either third party apps and/or settings.

Try to restore nothing, neither from TiBu nor from the cloud or any other device.

Thing is that my device works flawlessly except fm-radio and of course i wish that you can achieve the same functionality on yours.

good luck

Thank you so much for all your help and advice..

Just to be clear, you are running this latest build right?

"AOSiP-9.0-Pizza-nitrogen-20200125.zip" ??

Also, which gapps are you flashing?

Nano is fine I think or this will make no difference..?

So....

I boot to recovery... TWRP - (latest official)

Wipe Cache, Data and System.

Then flash each of these in this order without rebooting between zips.

firmware_9.12.26.zip

then..

AOSiP-9.0-Pizza-nitrogen-20200125.zip

then..

open_gapps-arm64-9.0-nano-20200418.zip

......

Reboot and let the phone boot up..


Do you root by flashing Magisk?

Do you root by flashing Magisk?
- yes, same build

- use orange fox recovery instead of latest official

- either factory reset or format data depending on whether you can backup key ingredients to a computer or external drive

- DON'T wipe system, long topic, just don't

- firmware has to be flashed only once until you need a newer version, hence if you did before, you don't have to again

- nano is great, using nano myself as well

- start without root and without restoring ANYTHING to be on the safe side, only like this you make sure that the effort is not in vain ( exclude possible culprits )

- once you're done or once you come to root apps or apps that have root features you can flash magisk at any time to root

- keep the device unlocked, no PIN no PATTERN, set to none in security

- don't apply any themes, keep it stock/default until you're done with your apps and settings

- check for issues frequently so that you can remember the steps since last working state

this way you will:

- either find out whether everything naked default works or has the flaws you encountered before

- or find out when the issues start and seek the culprit by eliminatiing anything done since last working state and repeat
. any setup and/or installation out of that group until the issues start again, that time with only one or two steps from last working state.

after that you can decide how important the culprit is for you and risk to terminate setup in one go. chance is tiny that a second culprit will cause the same issue. this is per issue, if you have several issues you have to keep an eye on all of them.

good luck

Thank you for the detailed layout of instructions, I really appreciate it.

I will try this later and report back :)
