[UNOFFICIAL] [ROM] Spark-OS - Stable- for Mi A3 (Laurel Sprout)

[manojkrishkumar]

I'm on latest build and flashed as instructed. But after switching off my mobile I'm unable to boot again . It shows the data is corrupted and format to continue. Please look into this. Otherwise the rom is perfect

The rom is fixed now. You can download the latest version, which has spark-os' own recovery. The issue is most android recovery and rom sources have built-in recoveries that don't decrypt data. Now you have no problems

smart charging working??

Oh! Welcome! i've replied you on TG

 

[manojkrishkumar]

thanks for the great rom. i couldn't wait for the new release. Unfortunately I read too late that root is not yet supported, which is a pity because the backups don't work there. In any case, I've already got the hang of it, magisk and root are working, I'm just not allowed to reboot. we'll do that as soon as (hopefully) a version with root support comes out

Thanks for the feedback, Most things are fixed now. You can download the latest version. Sometimes, FOD may switch to HBM, but if you calibrate it properly, the bug's frequency will be less

Not yet. It's a survivor.

Yes I see the new build, however somebody, I don't remember him, told me a few days before, that mi a3 is dropped.

This is my personal build- Unofficially, and can be dropped anytime. Even, official builds can be dropped sooner than we think, unpredictable. When I leave the development in future, I will notify the users in Telegram and this thread will be pulled down. But, not now. I read your texts in Spark-OS chat on April 30 when the rom's lead dev informed about 'downloads ' migration to sourceforge. I didn't apply for maintainership, that's what I've mentioned on first few lines of this post that and I have no plans to make A3 official.

You see, ask every dev how much time is required to edit, maintain trees, build roms, test, release and make after-release support. It consumes time more than you think that we could barely manage our social life. I am a custom rom user since Cyanogen-mod days (2013 maybe), I see Most People without even reading posts and chats in group spam dev's pm or group chat and dev's may be forced to ban those accounts. Even people can be managed, what about the bots? Its truly annoying not only for them, but for others too. That's why no TG support only xda, safer place.

This is a great rom. The only thing which making it hard to use is the fod brightness issue. Please please fix it. I really wanna use this as my daily driver...

Thanks to the developer, for your hard works <3

hello
this is very beautiful Rom
thank you for making this
but unfortunately it has a problem with finger print and log in !
it takes so minay time to recognise your finger and most of the times you cannot log in with this( when the screen is off ) ! so you have to use youa face unlock
and another problem is with charging speed
stock rom supports 18 Watt cherger ! but in this rom it takes longer time to fully charge

I've built and tested around 9 builds in the past week, with fixes in the dt. Even changed dt as some qcom hals are messing up, but no luck. That's when I forked Frameworks_base from spark and reverted some commits. The thing is, there are some conflicts that cannot be worked upon. Even if I make changes for one build, when I sync the source locally, I may break some features that would cause so many problems. So, I left it. As of now, there is no fix for that brightness bug. You have to calibrate with faster fingerprint scans, so that you may avoid high flickering temporarily.

Usually it charges fine here. I got around 2750mah max speed on one of my friend's charger. I dont know whats wrong on your device. If that's the case, I will look into the kernel in next build

i had this problem
so decided to wipe and install again
chrging speed now is well maximum i got 2900 mah
and i found sth about fingerprint : whenever i change animation or udfps icon sernsor works different than other setting
some times good and some times not working
i think its a bug releated to this udfps setting

 

[Shawmik]

I rooted it with magisk v25. Then I am using two root apps and none of them are working properly.

1. AdAway : everything seems normal in app but I am seeing ads in everywhere. It's not working.
2. AFWall+ : also everything seems normal in app but it's also not working, the app I deny internet permissions through afwall+, still can use internet.

Why this happening and how to solve this? (It's happening only in this rom)

1. Maybe Adaway servers are outdated and this is not even related to device tree or rom source, use adguard DNS instead.
2. Check the latest version. 12.4

every animations have different color code that affects accuracy of the fingerprint. Laurel has First generation sensor that is raw and difficult to calibrate, only xiaomi knows how to really do that. FOD is fixed now in latest 12.4.

Note: Full HBM may happen sometimes as mentioned in the previous replies, calibrate your fingerprint accordingly.

AOD isn't fixed in 12.4. The brightness issue is still there in 1.4. If I unlock the phone with fingerprint, the brightness gets full and cannot be lowered unless I lock and then unlock again without using fingerprint.

Check telegram channel. Explained in a video

Is it just me? or whatsapp has a bug where the beep does not sound while waiting for the other person to answer a (video) call and the app freezes for a couple of seconds when hanging up. Maybe it's a bug due to migrating my apps from the older version rom using the migrate app?
