[SakthivelNadar]

For all those who want to install a stable miui 8. here it is . this rom is from an chinese website, at the start it had a lot of bloatware so i had modified the rom and removed all of the bloatware and tried to englishize it. this rom boots up without any problem and does not consume a lot of ram, so feel free to install this rom ! .

i have not not calculated it, but its decent. my phone's battery is bloated so the SOT might differ.

No the whatsapp video call is not working for now but i'm trying to fix it but I'm consistently failing in it .

Expected so...cos cyanogen based all 6.0 MM roms has broken hwc ...which was fixed in recent versions of lineage os N roms...if only u can make a miui build on lineage 15.1..it will work

 

[SakthivelNadar]

do you mean lineage 14.1 ?

do you mean lineage 14.1 ?, because lineage 15.1 is not developed currently for our galaxy s3:crying:
So if anyone can help me building miui 9 for our device which is based on lineage 14.1 could be helpful and i have made an test build of miui 9 based on marshmallow but unfortunately the launcher force closes and because of that the whole ui becomes unresponsive:crying:. so if anyone is there to help me out to build miui 9 for our beloved device would be grateful.

hwc has nothing to do with WhatsApp calling. WhatsApp calling has been fixed on both CM13 and LOS14/14.1

Launcher crashes all the time, i can go into settings, but there is no "google services" to chose from.
Been rebooting, wiping cache, dalvik, etc, tried a lot of different stuff. I selected Swedish language, could that **** stuff up?

Edit: i was not 100% charged, but would that really make a difference?

maybe, did you performed a full wipe before installing the rom ?
because if you dirty flash the rom it could get unstable and you have to install the google apps manually using the google installer app present in the rom, procedures are given in the op
