How to enable Onscreen Navigation on LineageOS 14.1 - Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers

I just flashed the latest LineageOS 14.1 ROM, along with SuperSU and opengapps (pico) as per the instructions on the LineageOS thread. When I go into Settings->Buttons, I cannot see the option "Enable on-screen nav bar". Has something changed? This has worked for me in the past.

Is the "Enable on-screen nav bar" option dependent on anything?
E.g.
Is it dependent on a specific firmware?
Is it dependent on the phone being rooted?
Is it dependent on having MIUI Chinese Dev ROM installed prior to installing LineageOS?
For the life of me, I can't work out why the option is not available.
I am trying to get it working the Mi 5 64GB edition for what it's worth. It's for a friend. I had the latest MIUI Global Dev ROM 7.2.16 installed prior to installing LineageOS 14.1 20170221. So, it should have had the latest firmware.
On my Mi 5 32GB edition, the option appeared after I installed SuperSU. It was even there after I uninstalled SuperSU. But with my friend's 64GB edition, i can't see to get it to appear regardless if I install SuperSU or not.
Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

Even I'm facing the same problem, someone please help.
Please Help

Cannot use Android Pay

Is android pay working for anyone else?
When I try to add a credit card, it says
Android Pay can't be used on this device
This may be because your device is rooted, has an unlocked bootloader, or is running a custom ROM. As a result, Google can't confirm that your device meets Android Pay's security standards.
I just got phone today and haven't done anything to the device as far as the FW or root.
It's on MIUI Global 8.0 Stable 8.0.8.0.0
Thanks for any help provided.
Happy Holidays.
You have a vendor rom.
Theres no global rom for the mix, only China Stable, Dev and an unofficial eu.
It looks like it's MAHCNDI which I think I can get an update for here. But I understand what you mean by the vendor rom.

Does anyone else have any problems w/ android pay on the normal EU ROM?
Under the default wallet in settings, it shows Mi Wallet or Use HCE Wallet.
and Tap & Pay, the payment default is Android Pay but no other options.
Anyone else have any issues?
I'm using EU rom (6.12.8) now. When I tried to use Android Pay, the app said that it cannot be activated on this device because it seems to be "rooted, bootloader unlocked and/or using custom ROM".
Changing default wallet in settings doesn't make any differences.

What do you mean by a Vendor ROM? It literally says MIUI global, there isn't any Chinese bloatware, and it automatically has the play store installed.
I am using China Stable and Android Pay is reporting the same message.
Same on miui global 8.2
The only way is to install custom ROM with Magisk hide and Xiaomi Fix

99% function but 1% not. Stock is best but if you're bored, back up with TWRP and try GSI
descendant rom works great... No issues on my side... all the gestures that comes with the rom made me forget about Moto actions..not to long i Installed "Dolby" it made me forget about going back to stock... Battery wise is almost like stock, the first day flashing the rom was ok, after a week of using it's pretty good...

Unofficial TWRP works for Gapps. Official TWRP doesn't. It's been broken for 6 months
Currently on Moto g6 stock Android 9.0. Is it not possible to flash after rooting on pie ? Also is the ROM daily driver material ? Does VOLTE work also ?

Most GSI requires Oreo base. Since u have PIE, you're limited to phh AOSP v108, Octopus latest, AEX official, Descendant 1.5 or 2.1 made by the Real John Galt avail. on Telegram for G6 (2.0 needs Oreo). VOLTE generally doesn't work on GSI--just 4G. If u need VOLTE, stay on stock Oreo or PIE. RR7 disallows SD card (int/ext) access but works on PIE base

HueyT. Have tried just about every possible way of installing RR on Moto G6. The last attempt was to completely wipe phone(format, and all directories deleted.). Flashed AOSP 9 PHH treble. It booted properly. Completed "basic setup" then after brought to home screen, powered down. Rebooted into FastBoot. Dirty flashed RR 9 from official download site, and it never passes boot screen. Have left the device for over 30 minutes. Any help would be appreciated!

RR7 has broken SD card (int/ext) access so can't download anything or any apps or take any photos. Thus, get Oreo vendors and flash RR6.1 and be done with it

There are several GSI's flashable off of PIE vendors: pHH AOSP v111, Descendant AOSP v2.1 (John Galt has customized it to G6 on our Telegram group with Gapps built-in, but GSI vanilla version listed here will work also), AEX official 6.1, Octopus 11/18, PixelExperience 8/2018 version, LOS16, DotOS and Syberia by Nfound on Android File Host) are those that I can cofirm work on PIE vendors.
The other GSI's are best installed on top of stock Oreo vendors.
Most GSIs, VOLTE does NOT work (just 4G data) and PLAY Store is NOT certified (except John Galt's version as it's customized for our G6). Most Play Store needs Device ID apk to get GSF value to manually register your phone before Play store will work.

Mi9 noob - Unlocked, now which ROM to use?

Hi all,
First up, I have been running 3rd party ROMs on my old Sony Z2 for years (TWRP with Cyanogen then LineageOS).
So i'm semi-experienced with running other ROMs.
I have a Mi 9 global currently running the latest stable official Global MIUI.
The bloat and calling-home by the Xiaomi stock apps is ridiculous, so want off ASAP.
Ideally I'm after a very lightweight, stripped down version of Android with OpenGApps Pico (or equiv).
All hardware working would be a bonus (losing IR and NFC isnt a deal-breaker. Need BT working though).
So what would you guys recommend I run?
Thanks in advance
xiaomi.eu
I bought my mi 9 before 1 week and yesterday I unlocked the bootloader and installed Xiaomi eu , I'm very happy with it and i got 9h of Screen Time on.
I'm in same position as the OP. Waiting 6 more days before I can unlock and also keeping a close eye on the stability of Pixel Experience rom. Currently using it on a Samsung S7 so that will be my first choice.
Xiaomi.eu or Revolution OS are both great Miui roms.
Pixel Experience isn't stable enough for you I guess. But in future it will.
hello friends I have a problem when I unlock my 9 install the twrp that says on the page xiaomi.eu and I liked the rom and wanting to update to 9.6.13 try to enter the twrp and I can not appear the black screen and restart to the rom that I currently have from xiaomi.eu 9.6.5 someone can help me.

I replied to your other post.
Revolution OS > xiaomi.eu (if you don't like constant Softwareupdates - in case you debloat one of those & install magisk mods).
I don't say xiaomi.eu is bad, but I'd prefere to not update my smartphone unnecessarily ("never thouch a running system").

Steps to flash Havoc 2.9 by snek? Do you NEED to unlock bootloader beforehand?

Title. I flashed another rom on another phone a while ago and unlocking it was relatively easy, but I read here that you need to *request* unlocking for the mi max 2 via your Mi Account. Is all that necessary to install havoc? another question I have is how similar is it to miui? Can you use the Themes app? or is it just gone then? I just don't know if I should go through aaaaaaaall the process just to jump to Android 9. I just wanna play a game that requires Android 9+, and the device currently shows as incompatible cause miui 11 is 7.1.1 based.

Yes you need to request unlock permission from Xiaomi to unlock bootloader and you would have to use your Mi Account. Havoc os is Aosp based rom so there isn't Themes app but you can use substratum for theming. And there are 2 other files you need to flash along with rom - quick charge fix and in call volume fix. If you are doing it just for a game, i don't recommend. Also the unlocking permission will take a couple of days. Plus the audio in pie roms is crackling in some roms so you will have to use Viper or Dolby and tune the settings for better audio.

Question Lift to wake

Hello.
New Note 11 user here, unlocked, rooted and CRDroid 9 installed.
I can't find the 'lift to wake' function that was available on the miui rom, it is listed if you search in settings, but neither of the entries lead anywhere it can be enabled.
Does it not function on CRDroid or am I just missing something?

Not available on CrDroid. Only on Pixel Experience
@NeoSDAP Thanks for the info. Thought I was missing something but obviously not.
