[ROM][OFFICIAL] LineageOS LOS 20 / 19 [santoni / Mi8937] - Xiaomi Redmi 4X Guides, News, & Discussion

Hello there,
just noticed, that Redmi 4s / santoni has returned to official LOS builds under a new label "Mi8937":
Info about Mi8937 variants | LineageOS Wiki
wiki.lineageos.org
Builds also cover Redmi 3s / land as well

How it works? version 20?

Anyone else have any experience with it?
I installed LineageOS 20 (from the same site) today on my 4X and the only real issue i have so far is that for whatever reason when i talk with my wired headphones i hear the headphones mic the whole time.
Could not find any setting for it :S

Best stable rom currently?

Hey guys i want to know if anyone can guide or suggest best working rom other then ofcourse mi rom . I have tried evolution rom and pixel experience rom. Evolution was working great, only issue is screen dead randomly. While pixel experience is strange , screen lag, front camera pop issues .
So if you guys happy with one rom, ticks all bars. Would be great.
I've planned to buy this phone, but I kinda disappointed about custom roms development. there is no stable PIE yet when ppl expecting android 10 already. This is not a "Top Seller" phone deserves ...
It's still only a mere few months since it launched. It'll take some time for more development to pop-up. AFAIK most of the devs are holding back until sources for android 10 are released completely.
Compared to devices like Poco F1 this one didn't get extra promotion especially on xda (like how the F1 got distributed to top devs just like the RN8Pro now for seeding development), also probably has lesser sales in comparison .. so it'll just take a bit more time and should soon speed up in light of the stable android 10 based updates.

My k20 pro is on way to me, and i think people should be more patient, its new device, to make a good stable rom you have to work for months on it. This device will definitely got support for many years.

Agree, but OP7 Pro and K20 Pro released at the same time, almost same devices and challenges like FOD, Pop-up camera and etc. Also OP7 Pro got official custom roms too rather than unofficial ones. kinda jealous ...
There's no stable alternative to the miui 10 rom. Even miui 11 is quite buggy.
I've tried all of the roms on here. They each have their quirks and bugs. After trying aosp gestures, miui 11 is leagues ahead too. That's another thing to consider.

The fan following & 'professional reviewers' following of One Plus is much larger than that of Redmi.
It's almost like they consider themselves the Apple of Android thus sometimes the mad, blind hype to get the latest one == larger dev interest.
Jealousy is totally normal, even I felt the same when there was so much interest in poco f1 & kernel development by several elite devs & also the time when I'd a SD821 Mi Note 2 but Pixel had a more highly thriving community but nevertheless good things like roms & kernels started coming out in about 9-10 months & still decent today..
If the hardware is strong, the device sources made available asap after official releases then we'll have development for quite a long time! :highfive:

All I hear in this forum is "mimimimimi"... What's wrong with this community? Be patient please!
The Mi 9T pro / K20 pro is a great device considering the price of $ 370.
+ 4000mAh battery
+ No notch
+ Amoled screen
+ Quick charge 27 W
- But I dislike miui in every single way
On the other hand, I think about oneplus 7 considering the price of $ 400:
+ Dual speakers
+ Amoled screen
+ Main camera with OIS
++ Oxygen OS (like vanilla android)
- 3700 mAh
- only in black color for this price
- screen with notch
In my opinion, I decided to wait a little longer while I follow the development of custom roms.

Redmi 9 source code.

Do anyone have any information about when the redmi 9 source coad release?
The source code aside, looks like the Redmi 9 is late to the party even for MIUI 12 global beta. Only China dev is available. Even the Redmi 9c already has a beta. The problem is Xiaomi has saturated the market this year in a reaction to Realme and it doesn't help when it comes to things like releasing source code so early like it used to be. This year the Redmi 9 series alone has at least 3 or 4 different devices! Recently they released the Poco M2 which is basically the same as the Redmi 9/Redmi 9 Prime or whatever they call it

As I knew that all of them has one name board ( Lancelot), Anyway the way of xiaomi recent years is being annoying .
Codenames are different. Redmi 9 (lancelot), 9a (angelica), 9c (dandelion). 9a and 9c use Helio G35 while 9 and M2 use G80. Maybe Xiaomi wanted to first release the Poco M2 (gram) before releasing the source code since their Poco brand is developer friendly with the device identical to the global 9 or 9 prime in India.
Redmi 9 ,redmi 9 prime,poco m2 all are same device but different name.
Why xiaomi do it?
To make sure the Indians think that Poco-labeled devices have nothing to do with China =]]

Is the prospect of official Android 11 on Raphael dead?

I remembered reading a while ago that Android 11 was being internally tested on the Mi9T Pro. A few MIUI update lists showed the Mi9T Pro should get Android 11 based MIUI12.
It's a strange one because, whilst the Mi9T Pro has had it's 'two major Android updates' in-line with Xiaomi protocol, it was on 9.0 only very briefly and the device is still very new. Has the device been dropped for 11 support or is it just delayed? Any information on it?
From a telegram thread I read that internal testing of A11 for Mi9 and Mi9t Pro has started.
So, we're quite hopeful to get A11. But, Miui12 with A11 seems very unpolished till now so maybe a delay is good nevertheless.

Introduction - PtitePomme

Hello,
My nickname is PtitePomme, 27yo Frenchman.
Happy owner of two OnePlus (5 and 7T Pro) at time of writing.
I am a gamer (Simracing, arcade racers, Valorant, Rocket League and too many other games).
Listening to Metal all day long.
I love to go on my local kart track.
Regarding my Android exeperience, I started with my late Sony Ericsson Xperia Pro (that keyboard was so damn good). I then switched to a Nokia Lumia 930 (was too good for people at that time). Then I acquired, in 2017 my OP5 which is currently running on ArrowOS 11, and used as my Work phone.
My OP7T Pro is running the official OOS 11, waiting for 12 and after EOL will consider switching it to Arrow OS 1x if it becomes supported by the Arrow Team (this ROM suits me well).
Welcome to XDA and glad to have you here with all your experience!
Cheers

Hi XDA

Hi everybody. Probably not many people are going to read this, but here I am.
I recently saw videos about improving performance and customization in my phone with a custom ROM, and that's why I'm here for. Got a Poco X3 NFC as a personal phone, with MIUI Global 12.5.7 and I am going to switch to crDroid 8.5 for everyday use. Wish me luck.
