Here is one more ROM for Mi PAD. This one I consider as stable daily driver.

What working:

• audio
• sensors (autorotation)
• wifi
• 3D graphics
• hardware accelerated video playback
• camera
• SD card and USB mounting
• gapps

Known problems:

• not enough space to install gapps in /system
• microphone doesnt work
• you have to merge 2 system partitions in one to install 2017-02-25 and newer builds

I think I mis-explained. I can access SD card from file manager, but, I cannot set it as Internal Storage - adoptable storage feature of MM roms.

OK ... found a solution to gapps installation.
1) Install the rom
2) Boot
3) Reboot to recovery
4) Backup the ROM in SD Card (internal will be erased)
5) Wipe - advanced - select all except SD card & OTG
6) Reboot to recovery
7) Restore the backup from SD card
8) Reboot to recovery (again)
9) Install gapps (I use pico)
10) Reboot.

I used this ROM and almost everything is OK except HW decoding in MX Player / VLC.
There're some lags when I watch movie with MX / VLC.

Otherwise, very good ROM, thx.

Here's an easier and quicker way to install gapps:
-> Repartition /system
-> Install the ROM
-> From the TWRP main menu, select Wipe -> Select Advanced -> Select the system partition and click on Repair or change file system
-> Click on resize
-> After the process is done, flash gapps.

This would mean no waiting for twrp to backup and restore the entire partition. Fair warning though, I have tested this on one of my other devices, not the Mi Pad. Though I am pretty sure it'll work, it'll help if someone tried it and reported so that it can be added to the OP.

As is said before. saver and god of mipad(MOCHA) @highwaystar_ru.

 

[MiliWanili]

Is this really good for daily use?

 

[Navin9]

@highwaystar_ru can't we install gapps pico version without merging the memory.

 

[hell1134]

@highwaystar_ru can't we install gapps pico version without merging the memory.

Nope. Partition is too small and free space after installing ROM is about 73mb. Pico gapps requires about 140 mb.

(Guide) How to merge system1 & system2. And how to flash CM13.

1. Download the bin file from : here
2. Place it in /sbin folder in root using any root file explorer, set permissions 755 (check image in attachments)
3. Download Repartition zip from : here
4. Reboot into recovery.
5. Flash Repartition zip (downloaded in step 3). After flashing this recovery will reboot automatically.
6. Now Wipe everything except internal and external storage. (Create backup of your current ROM just in case, if you want.)
7. Flash latest Lineage OS 13 zip.
8. Go to Wipe > Advance > Select 'System' > Repair and Resize Filesystem > Resize file system.
9. Go back and flash gapps zip + superuser zip.
10. Reboot now
