When using GSI on my Mi Pad 5 Pro, the screen often has a sharpening effect (white borders of text), which looks strange.

Here is the Magisk module to fix the issue (vendor.display.disable_dest_scaler), enjoy:

ahh, how u root, your mi.lad 5 pro with PE gsi?

I made a LSPosed module to fix the taskbar in PixelExperience. You can also hide the taskbar pill (optional).

...

I have made the module into a Magisk module (implemented using Resource Overlay). LSPosed is not required anymore. Enjoy : )

You can use the module to fix the taskbar height in PixelExperience. You can also use it to hide the taskbar pill in PE and other ROMs.

Is this the ROM youre using https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/gsi-unofficial-12-pixel-experience.4354695/? And then followed the steps posted on this forum?

Everytime i want to flash PE+ it says

Invalid sparse file format at header magic
Resizing 'system_b'
FAILED (remote: 'Not enough space to resize partition')

fastboot: error: Command failed

Any solution?

edit: Use the lite version

Maybe run vbmeta again and reboot to fastboot after this again and try to flash.

You can flash the normal version but first you try this command:

fastboot delete-logical-partition product
fastboot delete-logical-partition product_a
fastboot delete-logical-partition product_b

and run the fastboot flash command again

It works for me.

Do not enable "Use alternate audio policy" in Qualcomm features (just make sure, that would create that bug)
Misc features -> "Disable audio effects" and "Force-disable a2dp offload" and i would not enable the bluetooth workaround mediathek (works for me without that setting)

This works for me. Thank you!

There is a method to make a backup of the rom that i have at the moment installed? Fhanks.

Is the Widevine Level on GSI ROMs still L1?
Does HDR work as it should?

 

[BiG_FooT]

For me it's still detected as L1

I would try a full reset using the default recovery, then follow the normal instructions. The problem may be caused by swapping slots, and if you make sure that you start from as clean a system as possible.
Others with more expertise might have better advice.
Worst case scenario you would have to use the Miflash tool to go back.
