Question Arrow vs Lineage - Xiaomi Mi MIX 4

Hello! I'm new to the custom rom scene so forgive me for stupid questions.
Just ordered a Mix 4 and I plan to flash a new rom. And I want a rom that's stable and allows me to use banking apps no problem since I heard some roms cant use banking apps for security reasons

PE

That's a complicated question which will only result in an exchange of opinions. I prefer Lineage, since my phones predecesor was practically running it from the first moment i've had it.
My recommendation is that you try out both, since the banking app issue you mentioned has only one reason... root-access. And this issue can be easily solved.

Project treble ROMs

So, am I correct in believing that almost all treble ROMs will boot on the H9, if so, there is an entire forum dedicated to project treble development on XDA, the H9 is listed as supported for at least AOSP 8.1.
Anyone think that other ROMs will work?
Link to forum: https://forum.xda-developers.com/project-treble/trebleenabled-device-development
I'm not sure if I want to risk bricking my device, it's too much effort to unbrick it etc...
Yes. I flashed LineageOS and AOSP, both are working fine. Due to us not having a properly working TWRP for Android 8.1 I couldn't install any Gapps manually meaning you can only use a bare custom rom without Gapps or Roms with pre-installed Gapps (like the AOSP Rom in your shared forum).
Have you tried the Pixel one?

[req REDMI NOTE 4X MIDO ROM STOCK OR CUSTOM]

HELLO im newbie. i have one old redmi note 4x mido, with snapdragon chip, 3 gb ram an 32gb rom.
im looking for a rom clear, fast light , basic.
i have installed twrp 3.2.1.0 and now i want to root it.
who can help me?
is possibble to have a rom like stock rom but can install it from twrp?
thank you very much.
please help me...
First, update your TWRP:
Download TWRP for mido
Download TWRP Open Recovery for mido
dl.twrp.me
Then you can think of a custom rom. If you want light and basic rom, you can look on LineageOS or Pixel Experience. First one is being releasing without Google Apps, you would need to flash a package (if you want to use Google apps of course ):
The Open GApps Project
OpenGApps.org offers information and pre-built packages of The Open GApps Project. The Open GApps Project is an open-source effort to script the automatic generation of up-to-date Google Apps packages. All Android versions and platforms supported.
opengapps.org
Pixel Experience is equipped with Google apps by default. Both ROMs are close to pure Android, not like MIUI. You could find some MIUI ports from other devices, but I wouldn't really recommend them. For such an old device like mido something close to stock Android is much better

How have you managed to make 100+ posts if you're a newbie?
Personally I can't tell much about those ROMs because I use different one. But they are well-recognized in the community, so they are rather safe way to go.
As for the camera, they probably have some camera pre-built. But you can achieve much better quality with some GCam mods. Even better than with the stock cam, if you know how to set it up.
Anyway, if you'll decide you don't like custom ROMs, you can always go back to stock using Mi Flash tool. But I doubt it, since customs allows you to enjoy Android 10 now (11 is on its way for mido too, but still early at the moment)

Question Good phone for custom ROMs?

Hey guys I am seriously considering buying the Note 10 (mojito) and I would like to know your opinions on custom ROMs for it. The Note 10 ticks all the boxes for me, but I worry that phones like the Note 10 PRO and PRO MAX will take most of the attention of Devs and therefore custom ROM development in mojito will not receive much attention. Do you think this is a valid worry?
I want my next phone to run deGoogled ROMs (like LOS), is mojito going to be a good choice for this?
Right now in my country its price is very good, while the PRO/MAX variants haven't arrived yet. It will be some time before they do, and even more before their price drops. So mojito is a very strong contender for me.
To clarify, I am not complaining there isn't a deGoogled custom ROM yet, only asking if you guys think it will get them.
I already use a custom ROM without Google, dotOS 5.0.1.
Installation of the Vanilla Version (without Google Services/Apps) via PE/AOSP or Lineage Recovery and ADB sideload.
Here are the instructions:
Install PixelExperience on mojito - PixelExperience Wiki
Install PixelExperience on mojito - PixelExperience Wiki
wiki.pixelexperience.org
Just take dotOS ROM from here (instead of Pixel Experience ROM).
Afterwards the APKs for microG:
Download - microG Project
Activate all checkboxes in microG settings, reboot and disable battery optimization for all components.
F-Droid and Aurora Store working, from there you can get the MozillaNLPbackend and NomatimNLPbackend and Deja Vu for location services without using Google.
There is no need to worry. It's will claim a lot of development. the most reason was to not see a lot and lazy at the beginning is on our Device (mojito/sunny) we don't have Recovery partition! which let our development slow but we have a good stuff of developers that's works hard and got us on the road as you see the roms are coming till now we got 6 roms and 3 recoveries and Orangefox soon.

Amazing man, this is awesome. I was not aware that there was a deGoogled ROM for it already, nor that dotOS existed and was so slick. I will definitely take a look at this.
Does it pass SafetyNet?
Would you happen to know who the developer/maintainer for that unofficial ROM is? I looked around and couldn't find a page for it here on XDA.
Nevermind, saw here that there isn't an XDA page for some ROM for the the time being. Since I have never flashed a custom ROM on any phone, I will wait for one to see what are people's experiences with it.

Sweet, this is comforting. I am really looking forward to deGoogling my phone, but am a little hesitant since I have zero experience flashing ROMs hahaha. Was going to go for a phone with Official LOS support but models available to me are the same price as the Note 10, but nowhere near as good.

On unrooted dotOS with just microG: no.
However, 2 out of 3 banking apps work.
After testing dotOS (vanilla) with microG for a couple of days and with a lot of apps, I'd say it's not usable as a daily driver yet.
There are problems with most apps that use maps, like Uber or Wolt or DHL parcel service.
They generate error messages that google services are not properly installed and quit or malfunction.
However, microG and the corresponding locations services install perfectly and don't show any errors.
I didn't have such problems with other ROMs on other phones (but always using microG), e.g. crDroid or ArrowOS or LineageOS.
Thanks for the feedback. Is that the only issue with the ROM?
I am really sold on DotOS, it is very close to stock and has very beautiful customizations. My problem with the one that is available so far is that it doesnt look very transparent (at least to me). No source code available, no page here. And I dont know how serious the Dev is about maintaining it, nor how credible he is as well.
Not really trying to test every ROM, just find one that is stable, deGoogled and maintained.
I think you're a couple of months too early with your questions, the phone is pretty new and the ROMS and recoveries in a very early state.
hahaha yes, I am afraid so.
My phone's battery is starting to act up, so I will have to make a purchase soon. May take a leap of faith on this phone and see how much attention it gets from the dev community
Thanks for your feedback!

Question Custom roms non-aosp advice?

Hello guys; It's been a while since I wanted to go from the usual miui (fantastic eh) to brush up on modding. I was looking for a Rom that was not based on aosp (because aesthetically I find it really horrible), and that was without google services. What do you suggest?

Mh, I don't know ... they all know me about android 10 with those icons.
I was looking for something more complete, similar to miui but more 'reserved' (without the eyes of google or xiaomi on), and for heaven's sake I'm not saying that these roms aren't, but they don't inspire me at all; They don't have that extra that convinces me to install them

Leos is completly degoogled....

LineageOS or any other custom rom on the Lenovo TAB M8 (fhd) (2nd gen)?

The default rom is stuck at android 10, slow and filled with trackers and stuff.
Are there any other custom roms which are android 11+, open source and are degoggled like LineageOS? Please no prethemed roms as i don't like them i just want to upgrade my tablet and remove spyware.
I second this. I'd LOVE to be able to use this tablet again... it's so god awfully slow these days.
same here, cannot find any custom rom, shame it's a good tablet but painfully slow I wish we could have a pure android rom.
Hmm, looks like GSI's work very well on this tablet, just use A/B GSI's and you are good to go.
Almost all roms on this page work. I use the pixelexperience android 13 rom as that is the most pure usable android rom i could find.

I have tried PixelExperience 10, 11, 13, SparkOS, Google's gsi 13, ProjectElixir 3.8 and they all work fine.
I guess most AOSP roms work, and I use project elixir as my daily driver.

Ah that's nice. Just picked up a 8 today and just started looking into rooting and alternative ROMs so it's great to have a starting point...
