Yep, can confirm, now dark mode has the black background back

Can someone confirm me whether the dpi issue Is fixed or not?

Dont want to sound rude, but is there a point for one plus updating the 3.5.x builds?Rather than updating MM i think they should work on Android N .

This is a community build, not final or the like. They can't have two teams working on a ROM?

Had a quick look at the survey and spotted this... please tell me they are not thinking about adding more crap into their OS?
Have you installed Clean Master? *
If so, which feature do you use the most?
Clean Junk
App Lock, protect your privacy
Battery saver, hibernate apps
Antivirus
Phone Boost
Notification Management
Uninstall, backup and move your apps
I don't use it
I really do not like where this is going.

Honestly? I don't think so. Waste of money.
If they're working on a MM build, i suppose it will take veeeery long time before we can see something based on Android 7.

I know but... Only if you don't mind pictures quality....

given the direction OOS is heading (w/ the community builds) I'd prefer to stay on CM, just hoping OP drops the OOS camera blobs like Carl Pei said they would so we can have equal quality photography on custom ROMs soon
sad since OOS 3.2.4 is pretty amazing as is.

They already have two teams working on ROMs. One for OOS and the other for H2OS. This is probably done by the H2OS team. If you don't like it, don't use it and stick with 3.2.4 since this is just a community build.

At some point though they will deprecate 3.2.x and 3.5.x will take over with all of the (possible) value added software we love like cleaner master!.
Very thankful we have a fantastic dev community here who will strip out whatever crap OP put in.

There's no indication that they'll do that. But...you always have the option to install another ROM instead. OR as you said, strip **** out you don't want. But take into account that they're a Chinese company, with a vast majority of their user base probably is in China, so they want to cater that user base. I don't mind the visual aspects of 3.5, but you're right that more bloat is bad.

PSA if anyone hasn't already tried, installing a Substratum theme causes the phone to get stuck at 1+ logo upon reboot

Nothing will do it, first you need a working TWRP, secondly you need a dev that would do active support. Forget about it, Moto G6 (ALI) has no developers interest in this phone model.

The G6 has been out since just May, what are you talking about? Most people in the Moto G series had G5S+'s where there's a **** load of development for and decided that the G6 wasn't enough of an upgrade for them to make the change, but there will always be a potential for new Devs to come to a device. I'll take this over to Android Forums for all I care and crowd source over there, there's always been a desire from up and coming Devs to work on low end phones over there, I bet anything someone will be willing to Dev on a donate device, especially a mid range.

Treble GSI's are the future for our phone. i already had RR booting and working with the official GSI available on the project treble forums. TWRP works, it just needs some kinks worked out before the broad public uses (have to wipe data to put files on internal memory, and some people have had success with forceencrypt/dm verity disabling)

Just for sake of discussion, doesn't Treble offer less feature implementation when it comes to actual device hardware to software "connectivity" [for lack of a better word] in other words little hardware side things that could be tweaked by the user with CyanogenMod builds per say?

im not exactly sure what you mean by that but i assume any hardware issues (i've really only noticed some bugginess with bluetooth audio) can be fixed with a custom system image based on an official GSI.

Yeah, right...I meant like more system side like deeply modified frameworks and stuff and things that have been modded in the system like tweaks to things like active or "live display" or whatever. Other things like how notification LED functions and tweaks to the make camera actions snappier...I know there's more...I guess a better way to describe it is things that Xposed would do, but built into a ROM. Treble isn't enabling those things is it? Since it's just a software update that's entirely parallel to a phones hardware?

Thanks, that is what I want to hear ?

Good to know some of you were able to boot GSI's already. I maintain RR for another Moto device. Once I get the bootloader unlocked, I'll work towards getting us up and running with RR

Just got a Mi Mix 2 in 2019 [Dev Talks] XASP Project

Well, call me crazy but i just traded My Pixel 2 XL against a Mix 2 some Hours ago...
I really like the Design and the overall feel of this Xiaomi Device. While i'm very happy with the Hardware are there the typical MIUI Issues around. Late Android Version Updates (Oreo Actually while i have used Q on My Pixel). So it's clear for Me to use AOSP / GSI on My Mix to stay up-to date with the latest Android Enhancements. The OS of My Choice is Havoc which is just well made in all Conditions. I was working on My Custom Patch (ROM Module) for Magisk aiming on the Pixel Devices but i will now support Xiaomi Devices running AOSP. I think with the right optimizations will this Device be even better (Camera, Audio, Features). I'm looking forward to upload a first Version of My Patch for the Mix 2/S which will be around this Week...
Hope the Community is read for a new Dev! :angel:

Well thank you for the work. My opinion is that you did a mistake giving the XL for the mix 2. Is a beautiful device but the updates come with "slow motion". I wish you the best and we are waiting for the new staff.

I'm feeling bad, but the need to optimize this Device to the optimum is now even bigger. The Pixel Devices are almost perfectly balanced and all i had to do was optimizing some Values and adding Ports like the Audio System from the XZ3 and native Android Features like known from My past Work (Meh). The Mix 2 offers at least soon a Pie Vendor which allows us to use coming Android Versions with more ease. That will help a lot to unleash more of the potential of the SD835 and wow, UFS2.1, Dual Wifi, awesome NFC, Bluetooth 5!? The Pixel 2 XL used BT4 which limited some Features i just wanted to include before (SD845/855 Flagship Features). Actually is Wifi and BT broken on My Mix 2 but i will figure out how everything works and i'm sure the will be some nice findings for other Xiaomi Devices with actual Specs too. Dirac Sound or the Audio Routing overall on the Mix 2 is also interesting and actually pretty loud and clear (Not bad against the Pixel 2 XL with real Stereo Speakers). It makes just a lot of fun to see whats possible with some Edits

Nice to hear , mix 2 has a very nice design and spec. But the camera is awfull.
I also am on Havoc os, I have tried also pixel rom, syberia, but for now stilling with havoc.

I was looking out for at least a Mix 2S with dual Cam to tune up the AR/VR Stuff too with Xperia XZ3 Configs (They are really good made and support many Formats/Resolutions), but now am i seeing that HAL3 was disabled by default and that most of the Camera Features aren't set. I have almost 30 Config Lines for Cameras in the pipeline to unleash stuff like Zero Shutter Lag on HDR, more native Camera Features and Configs like for Noise Reductions, Progressing and so on. Think once the Software is well configured will the Camera be pretty good (The Sensor isn't that bad on the Back). I was also playing around with Camera Libs and Permissions which can together with the right Camera Mod allow Pixel Configs and HDR+. Can't wait to see the first Progress. I'm still fighting with Bootloops and Issues but once i cleaned that out will i try some Things. Think this Weekend will be a good One for everyone with a Unlocked Mix 2 :angel:
Which could be interesting would be to include Device Specific Options in the Patch. That would allow me to include also Media Profiles for the Camera like with higher Bitrates, enhanced Audio Recording in Videos and so on. I'm pretty sure that at least 4K Video will look a lot sharper after editing some stuff on the Media Profiles (Looks very blurred actually on Havoc). My Brain is overcooking with Ideas, i need to go back to work!
Thanks btw for this kind Words Guys, i think the Xiaomi Community is a nice place to share stuff

Ok, i figured out what caused missing audio, bootloops and missing BT, Wifi and Cellular. I think it will not be possible to add the sony enhancements but i will try to load most of the libs by default. The Audio Output needs some more optimization but is ok for now. Priv App Permissions are set to log since enforcing breaks the System (Bootloop) on Havoc, and Video Playback is buggy (Streaming and some Codecs) besides a to big DPI which can be fixed over the System Settings Display/Display Size. I will upload a frist Version for testing and share the Link here
Edit: It will be available here: https://sites.google.com/view/miustone/RELEASES
(FFUHD-XIAOMI.zip)

So i was playing around with MIUI too and got some pretty nice results like a super fluid UI, better Audio Quality and i got VoLTE, VoWifi (HD Calls) and Video Calling working (Requires Google Duo and will be not handled over the Mobile Data Plans if supported from the Carrier). But i got also many bootloops and issues with My Changes. Possible that this is caused by the Oreo 8.0.0 Base. Some Features required at least Android 8.1 to work so am i not sure if it's worth the struggle actually. I can just hope that we get Android 9 soon and it will be pretty interesting then to make a Patch for MIUI. I will for now focus on AOSP GSI ROMs to have a unified Xiaomi Base OS to work with.
Would be pretty interesting btw. to use a Generic MIUI Image (There are some around based on latest MIUI and Pie). Sadly wasn't i able to boot one up so far...

AOSP seems to be rock stable on the Mi Mix 2. GSIs are also working well with the right Kernel/Vendor.
I'm back on Miui actually since it's even with Android 8 Base really cool at all. And i found some nice hidden Miui Stuff which i will use in the future. I just started making a Miui Patch now tested on the EU ROM and it's a lot of fun...
I'm still thinking about to make a Google like OS out of it with almost no Miui Apps at all. I will see...

Yes, very much.
In my case, never had any FC aps or bootloops, even updating with dirty flash there is no problem.
Really recommend havoc, above all I have tested.

Anyone interested on testing My Patch Module for Miui with Magisk 18/19? I'm doing some finetuning right now but i think i can upload it soon. Is there a Central Place for Miui Devices btw., like the Sony Cross Device Forum here on XDA? I would prefer to share a Thread on such a Place instead of posting it to the Magisk Modules Forum since it's more like a ROM than a Module...

Yeah i'm thinking the same after playing with MIUI a bit. And Android 8.0 is so hardly outdated
I was working on GSI Support with My Patch before and think that could be the best way to unify all Xiaomi Users on a good working and actual Base (Instead of just making a Patch for EU MIUI Users). Would You be interested on supporting Me with providing My Patch for the Mi 8 the Mi Mix 2 and maybe others too?

I switched to make a AROMA Installer for Modules including mine but I think the Volume Key Tool will also do the Job. I have open sourced my System Patch on GitHub as Magisk Module to use the benefits of Systemless install and made again something unique out of it. I'm rethinking about the way I will do the Patch and my plans are actually:
-Finding a catchy Name for a Xiaomi AOSP Patch (XOSP would be nice but there was a project with that name)
-Readd everything for AOSP (System Content and Props) and add back Volume Key Selector instead of AROMA
-Pushing it to GitHub and make Release Zips which I will push to my Google 1 upgraded Drive Account
There are many steps between all that but I can do that in One Day. Think I can share everything this Sunday Evening (18-19Uhr) with You, that we can open up 2 Threads for our Devices. I'm actually setting up my PC with a fresh Windows install again and will be up till the morning to install everything including GitHub Desktop, Editors and all that. Updates and Driver's first! lol

https://github.com/Miustone/XASP
Edit: So far so good. Almost 3am and i got the module tp 60% working. Just have to figuring out why the Mobile Connections like wifi and cellular are broken again. Also fixed some Issues from the last Patch like missing Apps in the Store (Build Characteristics are set back to rom defaults instead of "tablet" (Removed the entry from the prop).
I actually use Havoc OS Official as Base for testing so other AOSP/GSI or at least Havoc ROMs on other Devices will work too...

[ROM] [Work in Progress] [Mantis] LineageOS 14.1 for Fire TV Stick 4K

Hi community!
There is a WIP (Work in Progress) ROM being mainly developed by @Rortiz2 and @diegocr: https://github.com/LOSMantis
Current ROM Status:
- Not Stable
Not Working:
- Sound
- OMX
- Maybe more...
Developers out there that would like to join development are welcome!...
Notice: This is a WIP ROM. It needs to be compile from the source (build steps could be adapted from the Nexus Player https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/fugu/build) if someone wants to try it out. Ready to flash builds would maybe be available when the ROM is more stable. Please do not ask for ETA, it is being developed in the spare time of the developers!

Yes, but full of bloatware, with some blocking mechanisms or black listed apps, no Google Play Store...
We are not allowed to change the home app easily, to use the standard Android settings without Amazon home app, not install already purchased apps on the Google Play Store and so on...

With root you can disable remove the "bloatware", although personally i dont think there is much i dont use. The fireOS TV is fairly smooth and easy to navigate. The android TV version is worse (IMO, I have a NVidea). You can disable the NIMH app, although i have yet to find any app it is blocking. The play store for androidTV is horrible. LauncherX is fairly easy to install. As with tank and sloan, i would expect issues with roms.

Rortiz2 said:
Can you and other people (that did this aswell) stop creating threads like this?
We're working on mantis yes but this takes its time...
For now all is working except OMX and Audio so it's not worth to release anything.
We will create the ROM thread when it's enough usable.
Just wait...

Hi Rortiz2,
Why are you so mad about this thread? We did not ask for a working ROM or any release dates and we appreciate all your time and dedication to the project...
As I wrote in the subject, this is a WIP (Work in Progress) ROM... Have seen so many threads like this in other forums here on XDA where the ROM only boots but nothing works...
I have created this thread to allow other devs to join the project (if nobody talks about it, than nobody knows that a project already exists and can not help).
But if you would like to do this project alone, just tell me an I will delete this thread...
Best regards,
Michael

...

I got really excited when I saw this thread. I cannot wait for stock Android for the Firestick 4K. I will 100% donate to the dev's who get this working!!

It's ok, leave the thread here. If somebody wants to help there's no problem.

+1 for a test build, I've got a bricked 4k that boots both the hacked bootloader and TWRP, but whatever image I install has no display...
So I would like to try anything else even if stuff is broken on it (just to see if I can get a display).

It's at developer's discretion to discuss or release test builds here and considering that this particular rom still has some major bugs (call them deal breakers if you want), then i personally agree with the devs not releasing it yet.
Also, i didn't tested personally, but probably a custom rom like this may also break some features available on stock rom.
This being said, i'm sure that it will be released as soon as the guys behind it will consider it stable enough.
P. S. BTW, thread title is misleading and probably aldo violates XDA rules.

I totally understand and respect that. I did bring up having some kind of developer/user test build done just in case that could help further along getting said bugs fixed by getting catlogs that might help narrow down what is causing the issues. But if the devs feel that doing that would only slow things down (or even not help at all) then I respect that decision.

That's the nature of things when it comes to Lineage OS ROMs (and AOSP in general). Sometimes devs are able to get the ROMs to have nearly all the functionality of the device working... and sometimes not. But I generally prefer Lineage myself due to the overall experience being faster since LOS tends to not have all the bloat that stock ROMs sometimes have - especially Amazon devices which feel so bloated down with garbage I will never use.

Hi Pretoriano80,
As I already replied to one of the devs, I never asked for a release date or ROM for flashing. The title also is marked as WIP (Work in Progress), that means that the ROM is in development and not ready for use...
I have seen that you already made a great job with the custom kernel. Thanks! Would you also like to help this project as it seems it also can use your kernel? Kernel dev with ROM devs would be the best team!
Thanks again to all devs that work hard for releasing new stuff for the Amazon devices...

How's the progress so far?

Looks like nothing much: https://github.com/LOSMantis/android_vendor_amazon_mantis
Too bad !!

dead project ?

I made a test build (with many warnings). Also I used the kernel from @Pretoriano80.
You can download it here: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=324510
Please note that I couldn't test this out yet, so be careful of what you do. (Will try it out for myself soon)

Please note that I couldn't test this out yet, so be careful of what you do. (Will try it out for myself soon)

it's not worth to test since it's a dead project, it would be more usefull to begin a new project developing LineageOS 16 rom , At least we will be able to use the new Android/Google TV UI.

LineageOS 16 won't ever be able to happen for the Mantis version because it doesn't support treble, the most it could do is LOS 14.1 since it's a legacy device.

You could use a gps.conf from https://app.box.com/s/w57s1v1n3hie7l5lk28i for your location and replace /system/etc/gps.conf.
Or you try GPS Server Optimizer app for a faster 3D fix.
For both methods you need root rights.

After reading a bit, it sounds good! Though I wonder if it has more customizations than LineageOS, as I know LineageOS is basically cyanogenmod but I have noticed there none of those cool features cyanogenmod had in the newer versions of LineageOS.

I had never read about it before, but it looks like it could be interesting

/e/ isn't for customizations, they're more concerned about security/moving away from Google. I've used it before & the customization features are minimal, nothing more than Lineage.
That being said, it's a great ROM but I'll probably stick with @html6405 build of Lineage instead.

Thx for your answeres,
I'm curious how the rest thinks about it.

Thank you for your hard work to create great ROMs.
I am more looking forward to get Android 10/11 than /e/

Yes, I want /e/ as I'm moving away from Google.
I've setup a little netbook as a local Nextcloud server already, so having /e/ on all of my devices would be great!

Ok,
I will wait until next year, if we have more interested persons than 4 (like now ),
you will get it.

Hopefully people are interested then! I can't hardly wait to try out /e/
Google needs a huge reckoning, and the more users running non-Googled OSes... the better!

e would be great but is ubuntu touch possible ?

Yes - I would be interested to try. I looked at /e/ and it did look promising.

I began with ubuntu touch a year ago, but I didn't proceed because of so many incompatibilities. (but it should be possible)

Anyone think it is a good idea of making Android 11 based /e/-foundation rom for those needed?

This would also be possible, but I don't know when they will start to publish /e/ on android 11 based and for this, I first have to bring LOS18.1 stable.

/e/ would be great! Heard about it recently and it sounded like something i would appreciate. The less google the better...
I also want to seize the opportunity to ask if there are any plans for making roms for note 5100/5110/5120. From what i understand it is basically the same device as Note 10.1, but smaller (it's Note 8.0). Amazing little thing! But alas, stuck at LOS14. Which works great, btw, spinning fast and glitch-free, but the further android development seems dead.
Lots of sad users on the forum, including me.. (i do own a N8000 too tho..)
If you could find time for porting some of your work from N8000 to N5100, that would be realy awesome of you! Especially since it probably wouldn't take all that much time since what i understand the devices are practically identical.
You would make plenty of people happy and i would of course donate directly!

A bit offtopic but still: the SOC is indeed the same as in most Exynos devices from that time and which is the least problem as the issues have been solved for those other devices, but then there is a lot of differences in the hardware. From touchscreen, display, multiple sensors, one of the cameras and the charger those are all different, probably more parts as I only quickly looked over the hardware details, and this is where quite some work is hidden.
Aside from that, releasing a ROM without having at least one device for testing locally is not really feasible. It's not automatically that if it builds it also boots and/or works, that would be too easy.

Sorry about OT. This felt least wrong thread to write this in... You dev html6405?
I know things work like you wrote, and it's not as easy i made it sound. Sorry for that, i know It is always a lot of work.

I'm sure that it would be 100% possible, but I don't own this device,
like Don Carnage wrote it wouldnt make much sense just to build anything without the ability of testing it.
If i think about, I know that at least I would have to overwork the existing sensor hal, maybe audio (if its also different), some driver's and much more.
I already thought about this some month ago and tried to buy a used device, but they are very rare at our location.
If someone would donate a device, I would try it, only then it would make any sense.
But yes, this is OT here, but you can write me a PM if you want to know more.

Well I would be glad to test for you! I can't donate my device, as I don't have multiple of these though... but I can possibly send you logs.
You can post it as an "untested" ROM on the /e/ forums BTW. Maybe others there would test for you. I'm actually testing an "untested" /e/ ROM for one of my other devices. So far that ROM looks pretty f**king awesome! I get better battery life on it, and there's an even deeper control of privacy over LOS.
I don't know, but maybe you could order one from eBay? I just did a search for "n8013" and found a few listings like this one for example... https://www.ebay.com/itm/Samsung-Ga...sh=item3ff2ab2fee:g:~wwAAOSwiSpgCKcN&LH_BIN=1
As time goes on, I have come to hate and despise Google. They've been doing evil things (Project Veritas has plenty of evidence of this) and Android is becoming more and more locked down/proprietary with a "look, but don't touch" attitude. Even Samsung has just recently started barring third party replacement parts too, joining Apple in this greedy "planned obsolescence" mantra! These older devices without all that crap IMHO are just getting better lol. Yes, they might be slower; but at least we still keep useful legacy features and we can tinker with our devices a bit!
I'm wanting to rip out as much Google as I can from my life and have ownership of my data. I've already taken some steps towards that goal, as I have obtained an old netbook that I've repurposed as a local server.

This was ment for n51XX devices, but anyway, maybe it would be good to start build /e/ based on android 9, because it runs very smooth and on android 11 I still have much more work todo.
