After a short time yuzaniya miui.
I waited for unlocking the bootloader, but the waiting process freewheeling 10-ku. And from that moment the thought of custom bikes did not let his hands rest. By note 4 I yuzalMiracledroid, Well and I began with him (and he stopped it).
Due to lack of information about the functionality of custom bikes, I decided to write a small review of the insertion thereof.Maybe someone handy.

Of the minuses:
None of those with the meow.
Screen with three fingers is inconvenient, due to shear during swipe.
After the call via bluetooth slips tune the call.

Of the benefits:
Work loose.
There are additional. Settings.
The battery in the normal use of the constant Khaiwan almost 2 days.
It runs all of the notifications to the camera, out of the box. (After the fashion set - itching)
Cordless headset, the head in the car, working without key problems. GPS catches no worse than a car.
Quality dialer on top. + Third-party call recording application.

Most importantly, for 2 weeks did not appear to alter the desire for something more.

Dear users who worried okirpichivaniya topic (and you have a lot), I beg a moment of attention. I am glad to present to your attention a few facts that should dispel the confusion, no way covered the transition theme with MIUI on any custom:

0. Firmware - this is not a modem, not a brick or a unicorn - a small group of files (BTFM, cmnlib, devcfg, dspso, hyp, keymaster, NON-HLOS ...), which contain instructions for the periphery of the smartphone (it's the BIOS for the computer firmware for boksmoda, bortovik chip in the car and etc.). In particular, NON-HLOS - a beloved modem and abl.elf - presumably , The same loader, the new version of which is protected antirollback. splash.img - Mi is the logo at startup, for example. If someone took the clasp under the logo sew any custom spleshskrinov.

1. In custom firmwareno Firmware (Not applicable to kastomov MIUI). Sew what you want. The lack of Firmware in the firmware means that left the old version (without Firmware phone is just a handful of peripheral components in a beautiful package, it will never be removed and filled with programmers at the production stage - Firmware remove by conventional methods is not possible).
2. Check the presence / absence of the firmware Firmware can be elementary - open any archive file. If you have a folderfirmware-update the root - mean sew together with the firmware and Firmware.
3. Absence of the loader file (we find out what it is)Firmware makes safe for updates. Or, to put their notoriously old bootloader version, which has no protection from ARB-rollback.
4. Because it will sew meets script\ META-INF \ com \ google \ android \ updater-script And can be opened with the help of Notepad ++ - it clearly shows that it is sewn. Removing some lines from the script, you can simply do not sew the same bootloader, even if he will be in the folder.

That's what Firmware

I hope that the above information will bring users from the darkness of the mind back into the light. :)

I suspect that all works well, the default profileData encrypted and password is input to say 000000
and the system android knows the password and automatically installs it.
Miui SETUP kind in that the data are not encrypted.
But if encryption is included in the runoff. Then use your password that you set to encrypt the partition, but every time you boot it should be introduced.
In any case, the files are encrypted. And when you try to access the FS is not from Android files will not be available. Most commonly used encryptionLUKS (Linux)

Review Lineage 15.1 8.1 official. Mnogabukav!
As sewed. The phone was unlocked, the encryption was disabled stood PE Official. I stitched the official MIUI 10 8.7.12 Global DeV with off site to incl. Loaded, on the way asked to keep the data of the account. I checked everything, looked cool, but still raw. Then overloaded to a temporary recovery, did all the wipes, but without Format Data. Overloaded again in a temporary recovery, los los, addonsu with their off site, Gapps Stock. I flashed, loaded. Fire! All this protected and official immediately became.
Oddities:
1. When you install TWRP custom miui flew off, had time to run to the computer and out of it to put Los. And because it is becoming a permanent twrp.
2. Root Inc. of Developer mode, and nothing more. Off developer mode - Off Route.
2a. This root can not see twrp official app and does not give him any rights in any way. So I ask twrp failed from the system.
3. To work GCAM, you need to register in line build.prop HAL3 enaled and so on.
4. Google play says that the device is not sertefitsirovano, although I GSF ID registered on the site. Although everything is working properly, and does not swear. Just sign in there pleymarkete in the settings.
5. Each time you restart the phone in the middle of the download requires a PIN. ENTER continues to boot. The same is true in the TWRP.
6. Multiple applications from the convenience store stops accepting, nipisano that my device is not supported ((yes, and features them, the solution is not found, and did not understand it.

Amenities:
1. Everything is super smooth.
2. Excellent scaling and layout firmware. The PE was all fine in LOS Unofficial large, or small, and here is the myakotka.
3. Do not fall off mobile Internet.
4. Scanner works, and everything else too.
5. The audio path of the Bluetooth Settings Mode Developer. Aptx HD available.
6. Autonomy usual.

Generally. I stay on it. There's a man up asking about Google services. If rolled forward gapps stock or full everything works fine. You can then delete the extra google applications using sdmaid example.
I think it's worth zamarochitsya once and make all the rules. And do not touch as much as possible. So it goes. If you remember that, I will add.

Popolzovalsya RR and AOSP Extended stubby and their pros and cons:
RR:
disadvantages
1. Periodically, drop the application in error, such as Nova Launcher
2. In the older version 06.17 WiFi on their own do not want to connect to the saved access points, sometimes even after sleep.
3. If the panel clamp icon WiFi, falls broken window with a list of networks, AEX does not.
Advantages:
1. Changing the topic, depending on the time of day - dark or light (Incorporated option).
2. After rebooting flies Privat24 print, removing and putting the checkbox in the Magic Hide, you can recover.
3. Compared with the AOSP EXT less eats batteries.
4. Since she was the first, after it seemed that the AOSP worse fulfills the touch screen, do not always work pressing (possibly subjective, but it was not a problem)
AOSP EXT:
Disadvantages:
1. Absolutely for me useless finger scanner, because after the restart only helps re fingertips.
Advantages:
1. WiFi keeps better, sees more and keeps the connection with poor quality, and the internet works.
2. Magic passes both tests. (I am not interested).
Kernel staff, no torsion, nabalovalsya on XRN3P, since homeopathic their actions and, moreover, do not support them extFAT, do not see in them.
When sitting on the RR, it included encryption and fingerprint does not fly at all! Then formatnuv date, removed encryption and got trouble with reboots.
Pros and cons of non-obvious, meaning to jump on the firmware is not found. Both a bit annoying with their problems. Problems with calling a flashlight to retain the book. Power is not found in both firmwares.

A small review of firmware Android 9 P DP3 with Google Pixel XL

I decided to leave a little review of this sensational port. In fact, everything is placed easily, quickly and without any problems, except for the fact that you already have an unlocked bootloader installed TWRP and download all the necessary files from the link below. I did these instructions:Project Treble (Post staryigutsul # 75152033).
Vendoruse of the latest firmware Mokee, you can download it on of.sayte:https://download.mokeedev.com/?device=whyred
RecoveryI used it:
Attached filetwrp.img(34.5 MB)

Let's start with the fact that I use this phone with firmware for more than 3 days.
First problemappeared immediately after the system startup, observed small micro friezes and especially did not pay attention to it, but I do vybesilo and I decided to issue the following manner.
Attached Image

For faster animation, you can change it from 1.0x to 0.5x in the developer's settings. Taste the case of each of us.

The second problemIt was with the camera, because our front camera still does not work properly in HDR + mode GCam in any version. He demolished the one that provides the author of the statement and put your MGC_5.1.018_Urikill_vXXII.apk. The setting is disabled by default on HDR + Front Camera for better times. I do not see much of a problem, but on the core needs a stable job.
The third problemcan arise only from the owners of the phone with the model fingerprint "Goodix", in my case it is "FPC", and it works great. For the rest, it fully working and pretty nimble firmware, not counting the small bugs such as:
1.On the desktop and in the settings by pressing the fingerprint scanner is pressed a certain small portion of the screen.
2.Sometimes it is not clear how to download files with the same applicationsavagemessiahzine.comand Google Chrome. Sometimes immediately, and sometimes standing in line, maybe it's just me.
3.Laga rewind the official client YouTube.
4.Not working awakening double tapom and lifting devices.
And all, in principle, did not find anything critical to yourself. In applications behave as adequately and in games, too, on the battery as well as the drain, did not see the difference. If something did not notice and did not write, tweak unnecessarily write to the phone. Bit screenshots.

Instructions for switching to custom firmware after miui.


Important - in the custom firmware is not firmware, so it does not change your bootloader version (the ARB) and modem (bricks will not).
1. Switching to custom is carried out without restoring data, so if you need to save something and then restore it, useВ® Titanium Backup , Mybackupor any other program.
Photos, and music can be just on the PC. If you want to come back, then backup to TWRP.
Before backup in TWRP, we delete any lock!
2. Download the necessary firmware, gaps (arm64, according to the version of android, which are needed). You can throw on a memory card, USB flash drive, or PC (then transfer to the phone).
3. Go to the TWRP, make the wipes are complete (system, data, internal memory, caches oboe), after rebooting into rekaveri, do format data (to decrypt the data, is encrypted by default), reboot again. If you are going to install the firmware on the basis of Los - the format of the date is not doing.
four . After all the actions we have a crystal clear phone and
you can install firmware, gaps, etc.
five . The first firmware is installed, we find our firmware, install, add zip (if necessary), add zip (root patches, again if necessary), install (svayp).
We are waiting for 5 - 10 minutes, after the end of the download into the system, the boot animation should go, again we wait about the same, and if everything is done correctly, enjoy the work of custom firmware.

P.S. The following addition to install firmware-based Los.

Supplement for installing firmware based on Los.

Due to the new requirements of Google and Komad LineageOS firmware will be installed in only on the encrypted partition data!
In the transition from miui simply format the data, is encrypted by default, all other items are optional.
What should I do if the data is already decoded - put any firmware miui (zagruzhatsya it is not required), or encrypt data in your firmware - Security / Encryption and credentials / encrypted data.
P.S. If encryption is enabled you can require a password when logging in TWRP and system, do not worry this is normal.
True not for all firmware, usually collectors indicate requirements for encryption, firmware on android 9 generally do not work on encrypted data.

Explain to me please, why decrypt data, if now miui same los placed only on the encrypted partition, but an ordinary aosp piercings do not care for encryption? And if you then want to walk rom miui-aosp-los, every time formatting data, and drive backups from your phone to the PC and back (and if it is not at hand) in my opinion is a bit too much.

If you are a regular user - it is absolutely not necessary. if you are an enthusiast and want to access the files in the section (to change, modify, copy, etc.), then the encrypted partition you do not.

Can be an example? So far, no problems, it was not because of the encryption.

Maybe then you should add this to the instruction that would have fewer problems then encrypted (that this paragraph is not mandatory, but carries some limitations ....)?

The below is just added. All my life I have always struggled with encryption, then everyone chooses what he preferred.
Well done .

Until the carrier has won a mistake that almost every second of flashes which is very annoying. When this does not work the mobile Internet, such as incall2 I had to solve this problem, but not decided. Patch stitched on the synchronization of contacts with accompaniment google did not help, no contact. When connected to a computer can not be switched to flash mode (Workaround, I have not tried it yet), the SIM card is not working. These problems still interfere with the use will be looking for a solution to solve. He played with Ar stickers in the chamber a bit, in general, the chamber of the norm works, it will be necessary to test. By the way, I recommend to reduce the interface scale so that the Togls in the curtain do not climb out the edges. The imprint of my norm works (I do not know what manufacturer I have). You need to get used to gestures, are not implemented as in MIUI. Somewhere it was described that there is a setup of color reproduction profiles, until I found. These are the first impressions if you can't win the bugs I will return to LOS or MASIK. All manipulations spent in TWRP from Mr. Root. If after installation hangs on the logo, try rebooting again in the TWRP and delete encryption using the built-in command and install everything againinstructions.

By the way about of. LOS 15.1. Used throughout the day with nano gappsami. Very nimble firmware, no mistakes. The battery holds up well. True keep in mind that the default 2api it off and get an error when you install Google Camera.
