Updating nijel8's Unofficial ROM LineageOS 14.1 (Helium) Basic questions - Xiaomi Mi Max Questions & Answers

I'm using nijel8's Unofficial LineageOS 14.1 and am really pleased with it. My previous rom was the weekly Xiaomi.EU rom for Xiaomi Mi Max Helium.
When I updated my Xiaomi.EU Rom, I would reboot into recovery and then:
1. Backup > system/data/boot
2. Install new ROM.zip
3. Wipe > Advanced Wipe > Dalvik /ART Cache and Cache
4. Reboot.
Is it the same process with LineageOS 14.1? There are FIRMWARE.zips and I installed one during my initial installation of the rom. Do I need to updated the firmware again, then install the rom, or do I just skip it and install the ROM.zip?
I didn't think it was appropriate to litter the main thread with this question, so I'm hoping I get an answer here.
Thanks in advance.

Yep, same procedure + gapps, firmware update is up to you. You can skip it if you don't have problems but in general is good to be on the same firmware as the MIUI base.

OK. I will flash the new firmware and the rom update. Cheers!
But gapps? Can't I just leave the updating of Google stuff to the play store?
EDIT: I did some more Googling and now understand why. All is good. I backed up, flashed the most recent firmware just to be safe. Worked fine. Then I flashed the updated ROM and the Gapps I installed before and rebooted. Smooth as silk.

Is screen cast / Miracast working for you on this ROM?

hi there.. how to install mokee?? is it just like the other custom rom installation?
wipe data/ factory
wipe cache
wipe dalvik
install zip
are those the steps? or do i need to format system as well?
already downloaded the file but im waiting for the confirmation of the steps..
You don't need to format system... just flash the boot.img and then install it like any other custom Rom... If you need to grant root access to all apps without them asking for it .. You can change the settings in superuser to do that
What version should i install first? Nightly or Release?

I went to the website bro. I saw 2 kinds of releases the nightyly and i think the other one is named RELEASE but i assumed it would be the official one they had an update in the nightly version this june 4 So i should just install the official release and OTA to the current nightyly build?
Mekoo seems great. Tried the first unofficial that came. It has improved greatly. Ext_sd is working perfectly.

How to get f2fs?

Newbie here.
How can I enable f2fs in arter's kernel? What would be the procedure? and how can I have both f2fs+supersu?
Is there any downside of it?
Thanks in advance.

I used f2fs on RR ROM a while back. It doesn't have any noticeable performance improvement over ext4. Plus you will have to incompatibilities with custom ROMs and kernels.
I used official RR Rom With blue spark kernel.

As I said before you won't notice any improvements but if you want to give it a try :good:

if I restore my oos 3.2.7 backup and then flash 3.2.6 firmware over it will my home button work? and will this firmware change anything of my backup rom?
Thanks again.

Flash 3.2.7 firmware if you restore a 3.2.7 backup.
Stock firmware is compatible only with it's corresponding stock ROM.
Custom ROMs are compatible mostly with firmware <=3.2.6 & 3.5.0 (varies with ROM).
Also, take a look at this if you have problems with unlocking your phone after restore.

[ycjeson][MIUI 8] LeEco Cool1 (C106)

Hi guys,
First of all, this work is not mine, is from @ycjeson, I found it here: MIUI 8 For LeEco Cool1.
I decided to start this thread, because any information about LeEco Cool1 is difficult to find and in the most part it is in Russian or Chinese...
Get to work!
Do not forget to make a DUMP of your primary system partitions (like IMEI). Trust me, do it!!!
1) Tutorial here;
2) Needed tools here.
Install TWRP Recovery from BB72TT
Tutorial and download links here!
Install MIUI 8 and make root
1) I recomend a full wipe (cache, dalvik, data, system);
2) Put MIUI 8 and Magisk v10.2 into internal SD Card;
3) Move Magisk v10.2 zip to '/cache' partition using file manager of TWRP;
4) Install MIUI 8 via TWRP;
5) Reboot system without wipe anything (first boot will be long);
6) Reboot to TWRP;
7) Flash Magisk v10.2 zip from '/cache' partition;
8) Reboot system (may be fast);
9) Install phh's root manager apk and Latest Magisk Manager apk.
Optional to remove encryption from '/data' partiton:
10) Wipe data and cache;
11) Reboot system (boot will be very long, be patience);
12) Put Magisk v10.2 into internal memory;
13) Fash Magisk v10.2 zip again;
14) Reboot system (may be fast);
15) Install phh's root manager apk and Latest Magisk Manager apk.
DOWNLOAD ROM
Magisk downloads and more informations here!
Well guys, if possible, say thanks to people who contribute to improving the LeEco Cool1 community:
BB72TT from "leeco.re" forum, for your precious TWRP recovery
partyheadgmailcom from "leeco.re" forum, for tutorials (DUMP and How to install TWRP Recovery)
@ycjeson for your precious MIUI 8
@topjohnwu for Magisk
@phhusson for Superuser
Other people I forgot to mention!
I hope it's useful! :highfive:
A big thanks for your idea of introducing the ROM here.
I own this device, it has a lot of potential from software development angle but unfortunately the lack of popularity for this device is one the main reasons why devs are not interested in developing custom ROMs
Also this device runs LE ECO EUI hence I hope Le eco will come up with some awesome updates (if not then hope someone takes the initiative for some custom ROMs specially a lineage OS ROM would be perfect)
Screen shot and bug report?

I just installed it working perfectly but I didn't find G apps . can I flash arm 64 g apps package from the g apps open source website??

So, you can't flash gapps in MiUi based ROMs, because gapps is just for AOSP ROMs. Search in Google about Google apps for MiUi.
What are the bug reports?
Please report the detailed bug report of the ROM.

Some update in lineageos qcom repo....
Thanks a lot for working on this. I tried the following versions, but they all bootloop (bootsplash, lockscreen visible for a few seconds, then reboots):
lineage-18.0-20201017-UNOFFICIAL-clover_rev0.zip
lineage-18.0-20201018-UNOFFICIAL-clover.zip
lineage-18.0-20201019-UNOFFICIAL-clover.zip
This is with a WiFI-only miPad 4, latest TWRP, complete wipe of everything first.

@sabar_op, @sb56637, @amityg
Please keep in mind that there are many reports of bootloops etc using TWRP with Android 11.
TWRP officially supports all devices running Android up to 10, except devices LAUNCHED with 10 or later (having dynamic/logical partitions). There are no versions officially supporting devices running Android 11 to date:
TWRP 3.4.0 does not yet bring support for dynamic/logical partitions, which is required to support devices that launch with Android 10. It does, however, fix support for legacy devices that upgraded to Android 10, but retain the old partition scheme.

https://www.xda-developers.com/twrp...s-support-legacy-devices-upgraded-android-10/
Latest TWRP 3.4.0 arrived in June 2020 w/ support for devices upgraded to Android 10 (only). There's been no further versions. See here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ap...v1-universal-systemless-t3432382/post83725859
The solution for most using custom Android 11 based ROMs has been to KEEP STOCK Recovery and use ADB fastboot boot TWRP (NOT flash) command from PC when needing custom recovery functions to flash ROMs etc. This seems to work for most despite having no TWRP fully supporting Android 11.
Nb. To achieve root with MagiskSU, this method is probably even more critical as users are reporting bootloops with TWRP custom recovery (flashed) and Android 11 when flashing Magisk pretty much accross the board.
Nb2. Achieving root with MagiskSU can alternatively be done without custom recovery by flashing Magisk Manager patched boot.img (extracted from ROM) using ADB fastboot flash image command from PC. This may be a less fraught method.
I'm still on LOS 17.1, but the above outlines the approach I intend to take / try soon.
Hope it helps, PW

Yeah, but apparently LOS 18.0 beta doesn't.
I tried LOS 18.0 (beta) without gapps first and it would bootloop after reaching the home-screen. Flashing gapps would solve the issue (for me) but I don't use gapps so ... I went back to LOS 17.1.
I also experienced the issue with the sdcard not being properly detected.

Nah bro, eu.multi 12.5 is flashed first followed by corvus. The problem as it turned out is that both the files/variants, downloaded from corvus telegram channel, are either incomplete or corrupt.
Where can I get xiaomi.eu 12.5 , I'd like to try this rom.
which twrp build is stable for flashing this ROM?
I am gonna ask a very noob question here.
Which folder should I download from in this link https://osdn.net/projects/corvusos/storage?
I do not see any folder named "juice" or "poco m3" or "citrus" here.
{Mod edit: Quoted post has been deleted}
Nah bro not in the blame game business. Downloaded alpha centauri and paradox from pling. Non installed. Tried to extract both zip files got error after about 600 mb extraction. Downloaded paradox from mirror. Extracted zip file successfully. Installed like a charm.m
All is well that ends well.
Is this Safetynet PASS without Magisk?
Going to try this rom hope will give feedback soon.
I need a guide. I would like to contribute in your project. Can you help me with building the rom from sources in an windows machine?
May I suggest including this feature below in order to avoid much work for the power button.
I installed this ROM above and tried also the other one but failed to do so. I came up to keep the POCO M3_21.3.17 as used for porting.
