Great ROM, some problems. - Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers

Hello
I just installed a Pixel Experience on my redmi note 5, almost everything is working well but I have some issues:
1) I can't read mp3 files from my sd card
2) Play Music is not working even with the music I've bought
3) Don't have Google Camera" (this could be my error)
4) I have issues with an app, Ho.mobile", when videocalling the operator
I really like this ROM, it's great, this are just small issues i would like to sort out.
Thanks in advance

3) I'm not sure what are you calling "google camera".
By default, I was told PE rom comes with the same camera as "MIUI" (A2 device). To get a version of a "gcam", it's required to flash a zip file in TWRP.
There's some topic about that, I'm not sure which one is the correct one as there are a bit too many topics.
If you search the PE rom thread, some people sometimes talk about this "gcam".
I don't know any other answers.

It has the MIUI A2/V2 camera
A few others are saying the same info.

New Sub-Forum Q&A

Finally a Q&A sub-forum...
am using forfivo maxmem v2 on cm10 alpha3
Q: does this rom and kernel have latest adreno drivers or
i have to arrange it from somewhere???
Which ROM would you recommend?
Hello, I'm really bored with my unrooted SGW, tends to lag at critical moments - There was an emergency but I couldn't freaking call anyone due to the lag I was having! Imagine if it was really important. Plus, Subway Surf tends to lag a lot when I play it on my phone. I love that game. okay? :crying:
I've saw CM10's JB on Youtube. Which was ultra fast and perfect for my criteria. However due to being a college student, the camera is vital for assignments that I may be involved with which opposes the slightly bad camera function? Therefore, I was wondering whether is there any awesome mod out there which will reduce the lag but also without distorting the camera's function and enable smooth gaming. :laugh:
p.s. I just read this thread, I'm trying to delete my new thread that I posted earlier but I'm having trouble. :angel:

Hi i Am asking everyone really expert to answer the following question in the most possible simplest form. I have been following arco 68 development of cm9 and cm10 based rom. While at the beginning it was clear to me the problem of not having the camera working and the beatiful joint effort to make it work it is not clear to me why changing kernel form 2.6 to 3 set the problem back to square 1. If the phone is the same i am forced to think that the same lines of programming that make the camera work should make it work irrespectively of the kernel used. Any answer is gratefully appreciated
Bug Camera on CM10 build 6
I have upgrade to CM 10 build 6 by arco68..Great job.But there' some bug when camera and gallery.
When i take a photo with camera and look at the preview..i swipe to camera but i can't take photo again.I do exit camera app end enter everytime.There's a problem about swipe to camera-prewiew-camera.I know is a forcing file but this rom is very very fast and good..and i hope will camera work fine like about Cm9.
Thanx

IMO,, the camera is now ok in the latest cm10 .. but for gaming,, stick to GB,, you can flash GB-based rom,,, the camera is great,, coz its still from stock rom,, and the gaming is there too,,,
i suggest you try roms like black notes... last chapter by rio saptro,,,
also try the other roms here like that of sir klacenas
"sd card has been ejected improperly" message
Hi,
I've quite often lately the following issue:
My SD card shows that it has been ejected improperly and then reconnects everytime i wake my phone up from sleep.
I believe this will definately lead to data loss, i've already have some corrupted CWM backups (..MD5 missmatch error).
So, this would be due to:
A. Defected sd card
B. Loose contacts from sd card slot in my Galaxy W (i'm doomed..)
C. None of the above. A re-format on my sd card will fix it all.
What do you think ?
...anyone?

Nope, but i've found the cause..
It was the kernel.. XXLMI kernel with XXLM8 based Rom (bagux 1.4) isn't good. Once i revert to XXLM8 kernel all problems solved.

GAPPS Error
I flashed the ROM and GAPPS from the links provided in the description but as soon as every app gets installed and the system is initialized, I'm peppered with dialogue boxes saying "Unfortunately, -App- has stopped working." for every single app. It just isn't enabling me to do anything else or go to any settings. I've tried factory resetting and flashing over again but to no use. For what is this error occuring? Is it the GAPPS package? Or any other mistake? Please guide. It's really annoying and I'm unable to use my phone.
Thank You.

Application (or modification of ROM ?) For dual sim disconnection management

Hello,
First of all I draw my hat from all the developers who create ROMs, and this volunteer, so that our smartphones can benefit from a passage towards Android Nougat.
I use the ROM LineageOS/CM14.1 (update of 08/05/2017) which I am very happy with.
However, one thing I miss on this ROM : the ability to manage the disconnection of a sim, in the case of a dual sim smartphone? (for me for exemple Lenovo k5 A6020A40). This possibility exists on the STOCK ROM.
I have been searching for several days on the net if someone has found a solution. A priori no : no application on play store usable on Android Nougat.
Shreps (which I thank for the time it takes to respond to the newbies like me, and to improve the custom rom) answered me on a thread that it would be a "core" modification of the ROM Lineage .
For my part I would be interested in this modification, and ready to pay a donation of 30 € for the dev team who was found a solution (This is a small amount, but my means are limited ).
If other people are interested, and willing to also make a donation, it might eventually bring together enough money to thank the developers for the extra time they would spend on this change, If they have the time to do it of course.
I don't know if it's possible to constitute a "prize pool" which would thank a team for his work. I only saw the possibility of making a donation to a particular developer.
This dual sim management modification could possibly in addition benefit other Dual Sim Smartphones, and developer teams.
Thank you in advance for your answers.
Have a good day.
PS: sorry for this bad English : translation software

Hello,
I just tried the application. Does not work for me. Black screen after startup. My Lenovo k5 does not offer me to enter the pin code of sim cards.
I would have tried. So strongly that Androïd moves on its side, so that the developers of XDA or Lineage can make us a change in SIM management.
I have no doubt that they will succeed, when I see all that they can achieve.
Have a good day.
Hi all, I also tried the Play Store apps, and it seems there is a kernel concern too. I tried this app : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=pt.joaormf.mtkcontrol.free&hl=fr

Hi,
I have already tried this application. But does not work at all with the Custom Lineage rom. And with the stock rom (5.1 rom) it is unnecessary in my case because it manages perfectly the individual disconnection of the sim.
I saw on the Lineage forums that many of us are asking for this function to return to the Nougat ROM (And Lineage ROM of course).
Let's wait and see if a solution is found.
Have a good day.

I totally agree, but I tried anyway and it seems to work.
It proves that there is something in the drivers or kernel to manage this.

OK,
Thank you for your reply. I do not know if this comes from drivers or kernel (not enough computer knowledge to judge).
Hopefully someone finds a solution. I promised to send 30 euros of donation. I would do it when the solution is found.

default OS marshmallow based on CyanogenMod

Hello guys , recently i purchased Nextbit Robin, after seeing its interface i was little bit surprised because it came with CyanogenMod (6.0) preinstalled not Stock marshmallow ... I'm facing wierd issues like data consumption issues .... Instant Messaging apps are using very high data & in data consumption tab Android OS is consuming very high
I don't want to use this rom because of above mentioned issues , and battery backup is not good ...
Plz can anyone help me in installing stock MM/N??
Hi there, well i'll assume that you bought a used Nextbit Robin, in that case you have two options.
1-. you can get it back to stock following this post on Razer official page:
https://insider.razerzone.com/index.php?threads/robin-factory-images-and-usb-driver.21487/
2-. you can install whatever other rom you want to try ie: paranoid, lineage, omni or carbonRom. just to mention some of them
in case you bought it like new you should speak with your seller
As @pay_omar said you likely bought used so I too would highly recommend you to install the stock firmware asap and stop using the old CM you never know what the earlier owner or the seller have done with that custom ROM.

Is this a global rom ??
The Rom that is on the razer thread is official and works for every Robin on the world.

You need to be carefull read everything in the post and make shure you have a backup before you make any change to your device.
also you'll need to install adb drivers so take this ones that works everywhere on windows

LG G8 LineageOS

I've been a huge fan of the LineageOS roms in the past & have a couple of questions that maybe people can chime in on:
How come no ROMS, that I know of, are available for this phone?
What can I do to get my phone to something bare bones, like what LineageOS provides.
I've gone ahead and done the debloating without root, but the list that's available, only covers so many apps & my Sprint phone comes with so many junk apps.
Is there a difference deleting apps when rooted and when not?
Any input is greatly appreciated.

If the list is incomplete, just find the rest of the package names yourself and uninstall them.... Not too hard, I think. You have to bootloader unlock, and then you can install gsis like lineage or others. When rooted, you can do exactly what you can do without root, except you can easily do it without a computer (although you can use package disabler pro without root). You can also permanently uninstall system apps, so they stay uninstalled after a factory reset. Generally there's not really a point in that, and I barely ever do it.

If the list is incomplete, just find the rest of the package names yourself and uninstall them.... Not too hard, I think. You have to bootloader unlock, and then you can install gsis like lineage or others. When rooted, you can do exactly what you can do without root, except you can easily do it without a computer (although you can use package disabler pro without root).

Thanks for the prompt reply. I think I'm going to pay for package disabler pro. I would really love lineage on here but I don't see a dedicated version for this device and don't really want to spend all the time & effort to unlock the bl.

At some point, I might try to build lineage or someone else might, but right now there's nothing that a device specific rom really gives over these gsis. Of course you would have to unlock bl to flash lineage as well.

Thanks, but too little too late for my dodo self. I went to the apps page for the LG version and I saw the option to purchase direct through them. But didn't pay attention that it was the Samsung version. No where on their site is there a link for the LG version & I want to avoid buying through the Play Store.

It's fairly easy to get an apk for it... Anyway those devs have taken it off the play store in the past, so people were forced to buy it again. I don't think you should be too morally concerned in this case.
