Sorry to ask for this, I know I should install and test for myself the rom,
But I just would like to know how is the battery life on this rom?
What about the power button? Does it work properly? Because I had this issue on android 4.3 based rom's.
And the camera? Clear images and sharper?
Thanks in advance!
Best Regards from Brazil
By the way, in my opinion android 4.2.2 is the most stable atm

Build that we currently have ported by Demetris is 4.2.2 and for me it is the best custom rom out there.Camera and battery are great even with stock app and stock kernel.Alwayse switching between MIUI and LiquidSmooth.Flash it and test is for couple of days yourself and see if you are satisfied.

what bugs does it have?

Test it or read the last few posts of the rom thread.
Not that hard, is it?

it's also not hard for the devs to just put them in the OP but they all seem scared to admit there are bugs on this forum

It's even easier for YOU to test it yourself. Backup your current setup and flash it. Most of the mentioned bugs aren't even for everybody and it is actually quite hard for the devs to make a full list of bugs which occur for every single user.
If you don't agree with that it's your fault. The devs are doing an awesome job here and they do it because they want to.

In my honest opinion, bugs should be on the OP if they are known bugs. It's a matter of structure and information. But that's just me
From what I understood, carbon is a "fork" from Liquid and I think it's a compilation from source and not a port, right? If so, is it possible to compile Liquid from source as well ?
This question is for someone who knows or a developer

They stated that Carbon rom doesnt have anything to do with liquid team.Also if you look at title on older liquid builds by demetris you will see it says "Official" so i think it is possible to compile from source.Asked demetris long time ago about liquid future for our phone but still no answer.

No, they stated the following:
CarbonRom is an aftermarket firmware based on the Android Open Source Project. The team is composed of former members of Team Liquid who have forked the code in an attempt to bring greater speed, better coding, and full authorship to code. We are in no way affiliated with Liquid0624. The rom was forked at Liquid beta 3.2.1 and has since undergone major code changes and modifications.

They "forked" the code, although it was changed a LOT, a fork is a fork
Anyway, I'm gonna have a look later on see if Liquid can be compiled for our p880.
Thanks dimi :good:

No,THANK you man Someone sayed that all 4.2 builds are much better then 4.3 roms builds and i agree on that.
Far as I understood the source is published.
Will see what I can do during the weekend
https://github.com/LiquidSmooth/android
And yeah, I agree, I'm pretty happy with CM10. 1.3. Although I do miss the privacy features from 4.3.
Mods can lock and delete this since demerits answered our prayers and ported new version.

Hey, well we can get some pre-alpha 4.4 AOSP builds maybe, but these will definitely have bugs, i do believe adam has built a 4.4. omni rom but i don't know much about bugs/boot status etc.
We are still waiting for cyanogenmod to merge sources, however they have stated that they are in no rush to start dishing out 4.4 roms as they have only just sunken their teeth into 4.3 Roms, we will get them eventually, however any builds within the next few days will have little customization or lots of bugs, patience is all we have till then
I hope this answered your question, also, this needs to be in the Q&A section next time bro
Good evening.

Please understand that all the great things you've been hearing about android 4.4 wont apply to us for quite some time, what i mean by this is all the efficiency/ performance improvements will be somewhat mitigated buy bugs and firmware incompatibilities, these things take time for devs to work through, 4.3 still isnt mature enough on this device to call it stable.
I just don't want people to get overly excited by a 4.4 port, its improvements will come gradually.

4.4 sure is on its way for our device, BUT:
Google is removing more and more support for our device, as it already is pretty old. So we need to re-add everything.
Even if it's booting, we still need a lot of work in order to get the most important stuff working (like SurfaceFinger, Audio, and ofc also data/RIL)
So regarding 4.4, all I can say is: Have patience

Yes they are functionally stable to a user, but to call a rom stable (at least by Cyanogenmods standards) requires more than that.

Doesn't use dirty patch code to fix issues in source, usually done to get a release out quicker, between release candidates to stable this code is refined.

Sometimes it's still necessary to do. This is the case with our EGL libs for example. The best would be getting an update from LG, but this is very unlikely to happen. I got 4.3 BSP partially working, updated all graphics-related libs to 4.3 from grouper, but it broke a few things. Porting the full BSP might not be even possible.
Regarding Omni 4.4, I gradually found probably all needed patches for it, will see when I get to computer.

Hello,
As some of you already notice I'm working on AOSPA 7.1.x for Nexus 5. When this project becomes stable AOSPA Team will consider about supporting it officially with me as maintainer of course.
So, I will share with you, my progress so far.
To-do List:
Fix audio effects problem
Rework device repo [need to cleanup]
Fix camera not saving photos
Device specific features:
Switch from mpdecision to autosmp (better battery life)
cpu-boost optimizations
implement task's adj rbtree (LMK improvement)
disabled cpu retention (hh bugfix)
vsync workaround (hh bugfix)
This looks very promising!

It's caf based like LineageOS. But no, you can't install franco kernel. only the ones who supports caf roms.
YES, YES! It looks really tempting. Right now, a CAF base is much better for the Nexus 5 than an Aosp one. It's very nice to see something new based on CAF. Hope you will continue this project. Thanks and good luck.

I've been testing this for Marco during the past 2 weeks and everything works great. You guys have a reason to be excited and I know you won't be disappointed once it is released, which should be soon. I want to thank Marco for letting me be a part of his team and I praise all the hard work he has put into the ROM so it runs perfectly on our device.
I also want to test it, has someone have the latest build link? PM me, thanks

Hey! I read in the Dark ROM CAF threads that a CAF ROM won't work if the screen is replaced by a non-OEM screen. Since PA is based off CAF now, I suppose it will be true for PA too? Can anyone confirm and is yes, is there a workaround or something?

Yes. The fact is true.
Do we need to flash CAF recovery before installing this caf based rom ?
Thanks for all the hard work you guys, this rom has been one of the bests in the history of custom roms and this is a great comeback.
Is it going to be released this week? once again thanks, can't even wait!

Greetings Forums Members,
I thought I'd make a post here and get your opinions about what ROM to use. - I'm currently running Resurrection Remix from here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi...esurrection-remix-04-09-2017-t3587049/page420
So far everything seems to be running really well on this ROM, but before this Rom I was running Stock Rom with Marshmallow, then updated to nougat MIUI 9 or something like that and I really hated it... So I wiped, re-flashed the original Marshmallow Rom using Mi Tool. I then decided to install TWRP and Root my device and keep it on stock MM. It was really good and treated me well for the longest time. Eventually, I got bored of it and decided to try out some custom Roms.
I wanted to ask you all which Rom is currently the best Rom to use for the Mi Mix, would really appreciate some advice here. I'm mainly looking for something with good Battery Life and Fast/Smooth Rom.
- Thanks

AICP, It is the best and I think that besides Epic rom and Lineage that it is the only good one that is still maintained.

Thank you very much for your prompt and detailed response.
I'm currently using Resurrection Remix (ROM) - What are your thoughts on that? I personally find it to be really good because of the many feature it has included in the (ROM) - For example; you can really customize the (ROM) however you see fit. I find that to be the most appealing thing about the (ROM).
I'll be sure to give some of the other (ROMS) a try before settling on this one. I have yet to transfer all my dad over anyways since I've only been testing it so far. I'd like to make sure that there aren't many flaws before I settle.

Speaker switching in phone call and proximity sensor both work better in AICP, probably not a deal breaker, weekly updates and soon Oreo which there are a couple already.

I'll be sure to give it a try and see how it is. I decided to settle with RR now but I should definitely try out other (ROMS) before completely settling with RR since its the first custom (ROM) I've tried. I must say though that RR is very stable and has no flaws. Battery life is also very good.

RR hasn't been updated in months and likely won't be. AICP is the closest in terms of functionality (lots of config options etc) and is still updated weekly. Also, Oreo ROMs are starting to land (finally) so you might want to try those. I just built AICP for Oreo yesterday and I'm running it now. No major issues so far.

I've tried several ROMs that you've all recommended except for Viper. So far in my opinion I'd have to say RR has been the best in terms of speed, reliability and battery life. However, I'd like to give Viper a try as well just to see how it is in comparison to RR.
What version is it currently and what are your thoughts on Viper ROM ?

ViperOS is dead. Hasn't been updated in months and likely never will be. Rumours of an Oreo update hang on an article/video in Brazilian (where the team lead is/was based) showing it running on some device.
If you want to stick with Nougat for now, go AICP (more configuration options) or Lineage (closer to stock AOSP). Nougat ROMs are the only ones with custom kernels as yet too.
None of the Oreo ROMs are without issue for now, although they are minor for the most part. Another 1-2 should be along soon to add to Pixel Experience/Cardinal/RR/AICP.
I'm using @gavin19 's unofficial RR Oreo ROM. Love it. There are some minor issues but they shouldn't deprive you from trying it out. I strongly recommend it

Ya I need to try Crdroid, as I am on AICP and i havent really had any issues with that rom it works great and I can customize it like I want.
I am very excited i saw that ViperOs has figured out the Oreo 8.1 and has released a few roms, im hopeful someone will find a way to get that working for the Mi Mix!!!!
I think the best rom ever made for xiaomi mi mix is the Xiaomi.eu MIUI8 Stable v8.5.4.0
Reasons:
~ Unlike all custom roms, the miui uses the whole screen and has real rounded corners and not software made ones which makes the screen look better!
~ The MIUI 8 for MI MIX includes a gesture to hide the navigation bar and have a full screen in any app that you want, you can easly control it when ever you want, best rom for full screen exprience when ever you want! also when you do swipe to hide the nav bar the apps use the whole screen and there are no black bars! none of the custom roms have that!
~ version 8.5.4.0 has no bugs in it and has the best battery life you will ever see on the MIX
~ all Xiaomi.eu Pros and features!
~ Proximity sensor works perfectly and loud in this miui version, you cant find any custom rom that has that working perfectly these days
~ Camera is very good on the official MIUI version!
~ all the MIUI pros and features
~ NO HEAT of the phone, something that happens in a lot of custom roms I used
~ Please note that you can use MIUI9 from Xiaomi.eu if you want, but you will lose the stablity and swipe to hide the nav bar amd the phone heats a lot (but you get android 7, and all the new features) not recomended on the MIX
I have used tons of custom roms on my phone: LineageOS, RR, AICP, AOSP. AIOSP, DIRTY UNICORNS, PIXEL EXPERIENCE. none of the are as stable as that rom and I always go back to that rom.
Have a great day!

Yeah, Viper is most definitely a good Rom to use. I've used it on many other devices before and it has always performed rather well. It's a grea Rom overall and the customization is what really caught my attention. So I vote Yes, viper is indeed a good Rom to use on the Mi Mix and just about every other phone that supports it. AiCP is also a very good Rom on the Mi Mix.

I don't know man... I've never found the battery life to be good on stock ROM. I completely understand what you're saying though. However, if I'm being perfectly honest here, I wouldn't go back to using stock. Don't get me wrong it's very well-built and smooth but the battery life has always been horrible for me not sure why...

~ The MIUI 8 for MI MIX includes a gesture to hide the navigation bar and have a full screen in any app that you want, you can easly control it when ever you want, best rom for full screen exprience when ever you want! also when you do swipe to hide the nav bar the apps use the whole screen and there are no black bars! none of the custom roms have that!
~ version 8.5.4.0 has no bugs in it and has the best battery life you will ever see on the MIX
~ all Xiaomi.eu Pros and features!
~ Proximity sensor works perfectly and loud in this miui version, you cant find any custom rom that has that working perfectly these days
~ Camera is very good on the official MIUI version!
~ all the MIUI pros and features
~ NO HEAT of the phone, something that happens in a lot of custom roms I used
~ Please note that you can use MIUI9 from Xiaomi.eu if you want, but you will lose the stablity and swipe to hide the nav bar amd the phone heats a lot (but you get android 7, and all the new features) not recomended on the MIX
I have used tons of custom roms on my phone: LineageOS, RR, AICP, AOSP. AIOSP, DIRTY UNICORNS, PIXEL EXPERIENCE. none of the are as stable as that rom and I always go back to that rom.
Have a great day!

Hi Bro want to find out more from you based on your experience
I have updated to latest weely rom 9.6 - 8.5.3 but my Line ap still cannot open.
I want to go bac to stable rom as you said. What do you suggest and how to do it? I am afraid I will lose the history in whatsapp and other chat apps if clean install.

Backup & restore? Whatsapp chats and media files can be backed up to your Google drive and there are other options available for backup as well.
Same thing can be done for messages if you use the Google messenger app for texting and if not, you can still backup your messages and contacts very easily by using this 3rd party app to do so... Which uses Google drive. Also this app backs up call logs, contacts and SMS messages. App name: SMS BACKUP & RESTORE.

As far as apps and settings go you can always just use your Google account to backup all apps/files/data if you have the option turned on in settings of course.
General SD files like media files (pics, vids, etc.) can be backed up manually using your computer and internal storage or by uploading them to the cloud... which is for free.
How to revert back to stock? There are many guides available right here on the forums, if you just take a closer look you'll see exactly what I'm talking about.
The phone been released for 2 months now and yet not even an official TWRP recovery. not a single custom rom too.
i've been looking at Mi 8 forums and it has much better support. at least they have pixel experience rom
do you think it's still early for custom roms to be released or this device really has poor support?
Give it some time. Mi 8 and Mix 3 also took a while before the first ROM came.

i am sorry i didn't mean to be rude. i am just asking cause i've been waiting so long for a pixel rom and i was kinda concerned. the mi 9 would shine with it.
It took almost 7 months for custom roms to be usable on OnePlus 6
Just chill
I think sm8150 source code just got released not even a week ago, now developers get their first real look and can start working on builds. Really tho, unless the phone you are looking at already has strong developer support don't assume one without it will get it.
Just use GSIs meanwhile? They work very well...

I think that depends on your individual set up. I use TMobile and have 2 sims, 1 for work and one for personal, granted I've only tried floko but I can't use them both with LTE selected, only manage to get edge working. When switching to LTE, I get constant disconnects every few seconds. Sms only seems to work properly with GSM as well. Might be a TMobile US issue, dual SIM issue or dual SIM on same network. Not real sure.
The Mi9 is out for months. Normal whene coming custom roms this comes in the first month. I think we will not see any custom rom now but Miui is also good with custom launcher. I missing nothing.
The device doesn't have "really poor support", the interest and capable people are and will be there. The problem is just the drop of sources. This was to be expected when you have one of the first devices with a new SD SoC. Threads like this really add to the increasing stupidness on XDA.
Sources are out for weeks.

You clearly have no idea what you're talking about. Xiaomi kernel source code has been out indeed.. but go look at CAF

Thanks for clarifying this for all of us "not so much into all technical details" people. I can understand your frustration, but I think for most people eagerly waiting for something else then MIUI, (who are not willing or knowing where to start with GSI Roms) its good to have one of these threads out there (maybe even pinned on top).
As you are stating it's only a matter of time, and that is good to know for all of us. It would also be great to have some DEVs that are planning on building for the MI 9 in such a thread to even built more confidence.
Just a word from another Dutchmen. Have a good weekend y'all! And try (just as I am about to) not to check XDA MI 9 forum every 6 hours every day. Just wait some weeks. Things are probably about to become very Pixely soon.
I've already dumped an obscene amount of time into this device, we have only had caf source for a couple days. It's a brand new soc no one is building working roms for it yet on any device. System as root has caused a lot of issues as well. Up to this point my work has been focused on the kernel and recovery and now I have lineage building with the new hals and the kernel updated to use them and ramoops working so I can actually debug init. It's not as easy as we make it look I'm already a couple hundred hours in and I work for free

Yeah it's good enough for now for my purposes but needs improvement. The big question is how do we make it compatible across different dtbos

Can't you include a dtbo in the rom zip?
Can i ask you if i can use your kernel in my TWRP?

You can use my kernel of course, pstore works with it so it's actually possible to debug init with some effort pressing both volume buttons and ai button sends a soft reset to recovery signal which is the only way to keep the ramoops info in memory. The problem is if you flash a dtbo then the boot.img may be incompatible. Recovery boot and dtbo all have to be matching unless there's a way to make recovery work off the existing kernel in /boot
I cant understand the Problem here. Just Look at phhusson the god of devs for GSIs. The Day He posted on xda that his New Main device is the mi9 was the Day my next device was also the mi9 (just arrived today). His aosp gsi is working on mi9 for weeks with just some realy small Bugs and i think it wont last long until He has fixed all Bugs. And from that Day on we will have every custom Rom thats available as a gsi with their next Update.

I dont like gsi. For flashing need a PC. Gsi is for me not a custom rom. I need a custom rom what i can flash with twrp, without pc.
