Hi, folks. I have a redmi note 8t.
I would like to know if installing a custom rom from miui (EU, MIglobe...) keeps the NFC for payments . I have heard that you can't, that you have to do root and install a magistk module...I hope you can help me with this doubt, since I have unlocked the bootloader...thank you very much!
I have MiUiMix on Android 9 with preinstalled root. I just downloaded magisk manager app and enabled magisk hide. Payments in Poland works.
Lineage 17.1 with Magisk & MagiskHidePropsConf.
Google Pay works fine (france).
Edit: Also, Widevine still L1 so Netflix in HD, Banks app, Pokemon Go works, etc..

If I got you right, you're asking if unlocking bootloader doesn't allow using NFC. If I'm not mistaken, I could use NFC when I unlocked the phone, but I'm not exactly sure.
If you ask after installing a custom ROM NFC works, for that yes, you definitely need to install magisk. Don't be scared though, it's an easy process. Just flash a ROM, then finalize it (ie. start the mobile and setup the ROM). Once you're done with it, go back to twrp and flash magisk. Then install magisk manager (apk).
When in magisk manager both parts are green (that both are installed and working right), rename magisk manager (change it to something other than manager), let it download magisk manager again, and turn on magisk hide. Restart the phone, and in the menu you'll find from which apps manager should hide itself. Choose the banking apps and you're all ready to go.
I use the same mobile, and these are the steps I took. It's simple, straightforward and intuitive. Don't worry, you'll have NFC once you follow these simple steps.
Thank you so much for your answer... I'm sorry I didn't answer sooner, but I couldn't because of my job...
Now I have the EU stable (miui11) waiting for me to update to 12 .... recommend me another rom based on miui ? .... thanks again and a greeting!

First, you're most welcome!
Second, I didn't use any miui based ROM. Of those I tried, I fancied them in decreasing order as follows:
crDroid
LineageOS
Pixel Experience / Paranoid Android
In general, I can't say I'm dissatisfied with any. It's just minor stuff that put one over another, and all have been good in general. I use crDroid now simply because it allows more customizations - albeit I can't use front and aux cams. It's a singular issue though, as I don't read this from other users.
So I'd say try any, if you want. Because I use it now, I'd recommend crDroid but you'll find fans of all, and others that I didn't mention. It comes down to trial and error in the end.
NFC works with all four that I mentioned. In the beginning, when I first rooted and installed a custom ROM, my banking app warned me that I use a rooted phone and whatever, yet it's simple to fix. Don't worry about making NFC work, it really is easy. Step by step,
Install magisk from twrp
Install magisk manager
Rename magisk manager app
Open the app and let it install magisk again
Restart
Enable magisk hide
Restart
Then install your banking app and from magisk manager, add the banking app to hidden apps
And that's it. It seems a long process but takes five minutes.
Thank you very much for your comment my friend .....I have it in mind to install these roms ....greetings!
I'm not responsible for any damage to your device of any sort.
By flashing this you take responsibility of anything that happens.
Process at your own risk!
This firmware was developed for the p905. It doesn't apply to the p905v at this time because it's bootloader locked and a custom recovery isn't possible.
If you want to check firmware - please make backup. Better to store all partitions, at least efs and may be modem.
Instructions
1. Install custom recovery
2. Download the zip(s) - firmware and Google Apps additional package (optional)
3. Backup all partitions (it least efs) and store somewhere - it need to do - because you can loose imei
4. Full wipe all
5. Flash firmware and gapps
6. Uncheck Update Lineage Recovery alongside the OS option during start wizard
Work

Thanks to LineageOS team
Nice
Will there be also a P900 build?
Thank you Valera 1978!
PS. I have "Serial console enabled Performance is impacted. To disable, check bootloader" message.
Today I saw that BT is not working at all
BT is already crashed in the last 17 Version from 2020/12 several times. Maybe a common issue?
A build for the P900 would be great! Many thanks to the developers for keeping this get tablet alive and better than ever!
Valera1978, gratitude for keeping our Tablet alive. How is the S-Pen working in this ROM?
Well, I think to try tomorrow to install it! Good work like always Dev
What would I necessarily have to do to Port this to p900
I tried this for a little time. For me it is laggy too much. It's better at the moment Lineage 17.1 even if I need to find the version with palm rejection working because in the last (for me) not work.
I tried this rev. but I immediatly rolled back to 17.1
So buggy and slow. I hope in next updates

Hi! I flashed the new version and this is perfect, not slow like the other!
I would want use Duo app but from the other side not hear me. If I do a simple video with camera app I can hear my voice. What problem can be???
Thanks a lot
Edit: I found this problem in lineage 17.1 too. Maybe there is some settings that I don't know?!
Edit2: If u want call via skype, duo or other things just use earphones... what a bug lol!
Tanks a lot Valera1978 for the New Update...
No possibility with p900?
New build's great, much smoother than 17.1 and no crashes or other issues so far
Edit: Found out that the lag is somehow caused by me changing the wallpaper. Not sure why since the wallpaper is not live and is only 1920x1200 so it shouldn't cause lag.
Also, system UI keeps stopping when trying to enter settings from the notification shade
Too bad can't download it (neither of them). There seems to be some kind of cooldown or something on Drive. Can anyone confirm?
Edit: Got it installed. Seems to be super smooth. Thank you very much for your work OP. You are da real MVP, this tabled is old but you keep this alive!
its not better compare to 17.1 . change colorful wallpapers in few programs/home unable to change. some graphics issue. video still same as 17.1 camera can not take video .but can take pictures. Thanks Valera1978 for the new upgrade
Updated April security patch. runs smooth, but still everything same camera only can use for photo and few apk graphic could not see. but over all it stable and nice thanks again Valera1978
updated May security patch. unfortunately can not boot. keep goes to recovery mode .do any one can help me what to do to boot as regular system.did any one face same problem
Hi, i want to know your opinion about best roms with android 12 for redmi note 8 pro. Clean rom with google apps.
I had POSP rom testing it's seems good but i missed few importand options like 3 fingers to ss.
I tried Pixel Experience rom ass well but that was terrifying, phone cannot take a screenshot, no face id option or even fingerprint scanner.
Spark-Os i think is best os i used, but dont have face id unlocking option.

You can flash to PE 12 directly from miui 12.5,
FYI, I installed the updated PE 12 and the devs have fixed major bugs but still i found
1. Netflix widevine issue(plays video in SDquality), No issues in prime video
2. Bluetooth range issues after 2 days
( i did ADB sideload, it worked perfectly, remember to wipe and format as mentioned in flashing instrcutions)
their recent update fixed screenshot issues, Unlimited google photos backup (check the changelog for more info)
Personally I wouldnt suggest you to go for Pixel A12 now, cuz the devs mentioned they are using MIUI 12.5 kernel and it has battery drain issue. Wait for the PE A12 plus which i hope might be better and much stable. I heard they scheduled PE plus A12 next month, not sure though!

You shouldn’t wipe anything when flashing the kernel. If the stock kernel works fine, I don’t see why mine shouldn’t
Everything is working perfectly, thanks for the guide. I installed the PixelExperience GSI but for some reason Fingerprint sensor is not working. The process is stuck on "Touch the sensor" and the sensor is not lighting up. Yes, I set the color of fingerprint sensor to White (and even tried all other colors).
I even have the following options checked
- Enable Extra Sensor
- Enable workaround for broken fingerprint sensor
- Enable workaround for white-ish screen
Any help will be appreciated, thanks.

I don't know what could be the issue, maybe try to google or try disabling and enabling the fingerprint lock again.
I have tried few GSI Roms. Here is my summary:
Android 13
- AOSP, Android 13, No image with GAPPs pre-installed and cannot seem to install it. Tried NikGAPPs, and LiteGAPPs, both didn't work
- Google GSI, Android 13, same issue
- Pixel Experience, Android 13, GAPPs pre-installed but Fingerprint sensor won't get detected.
Android 12
- AOSP, Android 12, GAPPs pre-installed, Fingerprint sensor detected (changing color to white). Will stick to it unless there is an issue detected.

I got the image from AOSP under the official Android 12/12L section. You can find release here. The exact image I got is the system-squeak-arm64-ab-vndklite-gapps-secure.img.xz one since the standard gapps one came with an app called "superuser" which I couldn't seem to uninstall (I tried the scripts to remove supersu). This caused my banking apps to not run. That is why I installed the "secure" one and then installed Magisk and added my banking apps to the defylist.

I think VoLTE was available as an option in one of the ROM I tested but I don't remember exactly. Currently AOSP 12 doesn't support it. Hotspot worked on every ROM just fine.

I've installed MicroG. But it seems AOSP doen't allaw support system spoofs signature. Play services (GmsCore) is installed but without the spoofed signature it can't do much I guess...
I have been using AOSP Android 12 for the past week or so. Most of the things just plain works but somethings don't. Here is the list of things that are not working so you can decide if the hassle of installing GSI is worth it or not.
- Proximity Sensor is worse than it was in OneUI. Yes, it is a virtual sensor but on OneUI, it worked better. Now, it is worse. More often than not, it turns on the screen during the call. It would have been better if it simply didn't work.
- The viewport of default camera App in the AOSP displays picture in 4:3 but the camera hardware is giving out 16:9, so the viewport was squeezed. After installing GCam everything is good.
- Fingerprint Sensor simply doesn't work in-app like those in banking apps. It works on the lock screen but nowhere else.
- USB Audio Devices don't work. I have a USB-C to A OTG where I used to insert my headphones. On OneUI they used to work but here they don't. Storage devices work.
- 120 Hz felt smoother on OneUI.
Hello everyone
I managed to install LineageOS with working GApps and camera using this guide, so a big thanks to everyone who worked on flashing this phone
If anyone wants to install it, you need to:
Chose a bgN package (I installed this one : https://sourceforge.net/projects/an...UNOFFICIAL-arm64_bgN-vndklite.img.xz/download). It includes the GApps. You won't be able to install GApps after installing a vanilla (bvS / bvN) package. For some reasons, the /system partition is too small.
For unlocking camera and install magisk, just flash this kernel : https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/kernel-12-13-a528b-n-mesas-custom-kernel-r4.4490653/
I also installed magiskhide prop conf module, but I'm not sure it changed anything and the camera fix was probably already in the MCK. You can find it here anyway : https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...safetynet-prop-edits-and-more-v6-1-2.3789228/
Sorry for the ignorance, but I recently saw that the Lineage OS ROM for the Pixel 6 Pro has been officially released and I have some doubts.
I haven't installed ROMs for years (since the CYANOGEN MOD for the s7 edge) and then it was worth making the change.
But now, with the configuration that sells Stock ROMS for our mobile, would it be worth making the change? I remember that before when you installed the cyanogen, it lost camera quality, will it continue to happen? Another question I have is with the issue of payment via NFC, will there be any inconvenience at the same time as installing the bank's app and downloading the cards?
Thanks a lot for the answers!
I have lineage installed with safetynet-fix
I like it cause you can take an ota and not have plug the phone into PC, reroot etc. Camera is the same with google camera
It's a stable rom.

It's not officially supported but I've had it working on LineageOS (and 99% of custom ROMs) with the following (obviously you also have to hide Google Wallet in magiskhide or whatever your NFC payment is): https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...tion-x-7-6-1-02-22-2023.4546503/post-88225237
If you just want to flash LOS and not have root, you won't be able to use Google Pay or most apps that check safety net (banking apps, streaming apps, etc...)

Honestly, I wouldn't until after the P6P is no longer supported by Google. You may - not will - lose some Pixel-only features by installing a custom ROM, and of course losing Google Pay unless you root and install the Safetynet fix mod.

This and also trwp is still not available to make backups of the entire os. I am stuck on stock (which tbh im fine with since I have root and everything works fine). Wait till they officially discontinue the os for the phone.
I'm on stock A14 DP2 rooted. Some minor bugs, but nothing serous. One thing I very much miss from my previous phone is double tap to wake. Stock Google only allows single tap to wake, which is a deal breaker for me as there are too many unintentional wakeups that way.
I recently installed LOS 20 on my son's Oneplus 6, and double tap to wake is indeed present there. My question is, does that work for a P6/P6 Pro or would I be stuck with single tap or nothing?

That's a ROM function so you should have double tap capability if you install LineageOS.
Is there a difference between customization with lineage and stock? I've installed lineage on this phone before and i didn't see any customization options like cyanogenmod did on older devices. I noticed ricedroid and crdroid have customization settings for many things. So does lineage not have any customization or am I missing something here?
There is some customization, but it's low key compared to Cyanogenmod. Most customizations can be done with apps.
