Overall smoothness and responsiveness - Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers

Hello folks,
I've noticed that after the 8.1 update the responsiveness of the A1 is trash! When swiping on lock screen, for example, it takes multiple times to finally swipe up. (If you know app that can record screen I'll gladly post the video here). The scrolling smoothness is very bad when I see Mi A2 Lite on there it's butter smooth. The speed also suffered allot. Anyone noticed that too?
Please post any other discoveries here!
Thanks

Okay here is the video! https://giphy.com/gifs/orTE4NSy3yNcriqkPD

I'm not having this problem. I'm on the August update and a short swipe unlocks the screen. So what you're experiencing is definitely not universal.
I have not noticed any changes in overall device responsiveness either.

Flash latest stock rom in Mi flash tool.
I recommend to do it in EDL mode.

Multitasking - best case scenario

Hi guys I was so confused on choosing between G4 and S6 and actually I was about to pick G4 for it overall great performance. Then few people told me that custom roms can give me even 7-8 hours SOT on s6 and i trust them because I had completely debloated note 2 that could run 5-6h sot every day. Now I'm using Z3 which I love despite the terrible (in comparison to Samsung and LG) camera. I wanted to change but I'm looking for good performance in all sectors - battery, camera and multitasking.
Now here's the deal. If anyone can run similar multitasking situation like the one on the video (13 apps switching simultaneously on my Z3, could do more but it's not the thing, at least 10 is what I'm really looking for, if more is possible that would be great too! ) and could post a video + information of changes (rom, mod etc.), I would be so much grateful.
Don't ask why I want, don't tell me it's useless, in my opinion it's the best android feature that works excellent, as you see on Z3 makes opening all apps extremely smooth without need to reopen anything (even throughout the whole day).
PS. Actually just make this just like battery thread, showing how good it can multitask. I think it might help other people who hate this device for poor multitasking.

We all already know how it multitasks.

Yeah maybe, but I couldn't find any good custom rom multitasking performance on YouTube, only stock (which performs very bad). Luckily I found nice video.
This guy runs xtrestolite rom. I'm a heavy user so that's why it was so important to me. I thought of switching to nexus device, but I use camera from time to time as well.

I am using this on my s6 edge. And my best multitasking scenario was 16 app at the same time(3 games, browser, carbon for twitter, youtube, spotify, etc)
I think there is room for improvement for the s6. but if you want maximum multitasking. wait for the moto x style. according reviews it has an excellent camera and is the closest as it get to aosp.
Turn all of your apps into bubbles.

But at least you're given an option to turn some apps into bubbles right?
I am running the arter97 note 5 custom rom version 4. With his kernal(same version). I'm on 5.1.1 base. Multitasking is the best I've seen on this device. I have approximately 10-12 apps open as we speak and am able to switch between them with no reopening of any kind. It is the "back to not3" rom in this forum. Best rom I've ever used on a smartphone and the best for multitasking I've used on the s6

The link in the OP takes you to the OTA download which can be flashed without a data wipe! Changelog isn't posted with details, but check https://developer.android.com/preview/release-notes later
Substratum won't work for me, but Magisk does pass safetynet.
Edit: Also, booting the newest TWRP, I had to adb sideload because it wouldn't take my pattern for decryption.
Edit 2: I rolled substratum back from version 999 to 998, and it now works.
I can't set the password, parten or anything. Help? I just got my pixel XL 2 coming from 1+ 5t.

Working great here with Magisk 16.7, SafetyNet PASS.

I had the OTA notification waiting when I woke up this morning.
Changes so far are subtle. The "rotate screen" icon has been redesigned to be uglier (personal opinion), not spotted anything else visible so far, but not spent long with it yet.
Only other thing I've noticed is that they removed the assistant button from the search widget in the dock. Was hoping for more.
I'm feeling a performance bump in this latest beta, compared to all the previous 3 beta versions.

My own and anecdotal experience from going from dp4 to dp5 is my battery is lasting a hell of a lot longer. I'm at 68% with an sot of 2hr20m. Normally I'd be at 50% at this stage.
It genuinely seems smoother with better battery. Really pleased so far.
Battery here seems to be the same. Is too early to make a statement of it, needs to reach end of day for a few days.
But performance is definitely better. They probably were using a less aggressive kernel or something that was taking performance in previous DPs.

Feels much quicker/smoother here too. Battery seems slightly better.
Still no way to move the clock back without root?

Holey Light (S10 LED Notifications)

Been playing today with this brand new apk still under development by the famous Developer Chainfire and it works!
Colors and other things like display frequencies are customizable, some limitations with AOD for now, well, try it. I like it.

This seems like a much better use of the LED than simply showing battery percentage. Already seems to work pretty good!

Must have app. It's great [emoji16]

Which Rom?

Just got a Mi 9T and trying to decide on which ROM to laod onto it? I have Pixel Experience+ on my Mi 8 Se which I like, after something similar.
I've noticed there's no official PE for this phone, likewise with LineageOS. Where these are "unofficial", what are the downsides to not having official support for a device? Are either likely to become official?
Evolution X 2.0 also looks quite interesting but I need to look into it a bit more.
So, what are others using? I'd like to get the near stock experience I got from PE+ along with the device being nice and snappy without hammering the battery more than it should.

Only downside is that if the person who make the port decide to stop doing it, move on to another device or if life become too busy.. the ROMs will not be updated, where Official ports you kind of have updates for sure.

Apparently still too short Unofficial versions often have much better support.

They do, but he asked the downside
The only one i can think is that if who compile/maintain move on the ROM become "abandonware".
but i agree, unofficial is better.
Running official havocos 2.9 at the moment, seems pretty good
