It looks really nice. I think I'll be testing it soon. Thanks.

Is there anyone using this room ? How about stability and battery life ?

Hello,
I've tested the ROM for 3 days and it works fine. Battery life is really great, for me with a normal use I can have 2 days of battery life, including wifi and network use.
I like a lot all the customizations options, really nice.
I recomend this rom.

you need to downgrade to the latest nougat firmware or you will get in trouble with everything (roms, kernels, recoveries etc.).

I've now downgraded using the link below and have installed the NCKMIFI firmware. After numerous tries with Mi Unlocker and trying to get OrangeFox working, I finally got the ROM installed (with FBE disabled). For those with Mi Unlocker failing to unlock, try using Find Me through i.mi.com. I also had to flash the NCKMIFI firmware even though I used the All-in-One procedure for iusmac's OrangeFox recovery to correctly detect partitions. I didn't use the rilfix and sensorfix zips.
Downgrader: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/guide-rollback-downgrade-firmware-from-oreo-to-nougat.3938904/
Everything in this ROM is pretty fast! It feels like a new phone compared to stock firmware. So much free space too. Pretty unbelievable for such an old and low-spec phone (SD425/2GB RAM/16GB storage). Funny how I was happy to see 100% health of the phone's eMMC too! Whew.
I also installed Nikgapps core as per instructions though I wonder if Basic wouldn't slow this down too much -- but I installed most of the Basic's apps anyway except for Dialer through the Play Store.
===================================
But something seems wrong with Mobile Data. I'm using two sims but have also tried one sim.
1: Somehow, my primary sim's data is not working even though APN etc is set. My secondary sim works with mobile data though. Tried switching them around and using the primary sim alone to no avail. In dual-sim, the mobile data QS tile says that it is Not set to use data when this SIM's data connection is activated.
The primary sim was working in my stock ROM as SIM1 and is tested working in other phones. The primary SIM's network is Globe Telecom in the Philippines.
2: The Data Disabled indicator seems to be inconsistent.
Using the secondary sim's data (in dual-sim or single-sim), I get data but:
----- 2.1: when data is on and the indicator is on, the data disabled indicator (!) still shows up.
----- 2.2: when data is on and the indicator is off, the data disabled indicator (!) still shows up.
----- 2.3: when data is off and the indicator is off/on, the indicator(!) works correctly
3: The switch data card in QS seems confused? The points below are in dual-sim.
----- 3.1 When using SIM1 for data (seen in QS and in SIM settings), the switch QS tile says SIM2 is active.
----- 3.2 When using SIM2 for data (seen in QS and in SIM settings), the switch QS tile says SIM1 is active.
This is contrary to how switch data works with Android 12.1 (EvolutionX ROM) on my Mi A1 phone where it shows the current active data sim.
So that's my only problem now, mobile data being inconsistent with dual-sim. And somehow mobile data not working with the Globe Telecom (primary) sim even with switching them around. Luckily, this primary sim isn't being used so much for data as the secondary one has free data for messaging services so the 2nd one is being used a lot more anyway.
I hope these get solved as they are the only things I think that is wrong with this ROM

After trying to get things right, I got it. What I did was to downgrade from miui11 oreo to nougt, install given orangefox, format data, then flash crdroid, gapps and magisk.
After setting everything up, I can say that its awesome. This gives me a lot of customizations to play with, and most importantly, android12 update. Thanks a lot for helping me revive my old phone.

Is this custom rom safe for banking transaction? Thx

It is giving very poor battery life and has overheating issue.
This was not the case with android 11 nitrogen OS which gave superb battery life.
Is there any solution or explanation to what could have gone wrong?
Else everything is superb.
Thank you

Awesome ROM. Obviously this phone is lagging a lot, maybe due to RAM issues, but ROM has no issues. Who would have thought this phone getting Android 12? lol

Thank you, appreciate that! The laggs increase proportionally to quantity of apps on the background and how heavy they are. The main trick is to use alternative less heavy apps, and the most important to disable all non-sense/meaningless notifications to the apps.

FAQ:
Before using the ROM:
Q. Can I have an ETA for the next build?
A. Yes, just look in the OP to see if your device is built on a nightly or weekly schedule.
Q. Does this ROM support custom kernels?
A. No. You can still use them, but discussion should go in the thread of the respective kernel. We don't offer support for bugs you might encounter while using them!
Q. Why doesn't this ROM support Xposed?
A. Xposed is a hack that is geared towards AOSP, custom ROM's modify the framework a lot, so Xposed can cause a ton of issues on custom ROM's. Now it might work for you, however it is not to be discussed in this thread, and you should refrain from posting bug reports.
Q. Alright, but I still want to flash Xposed, so which version do I need to install?
A. You will need to use the version arm64/arm/whatever for SDK 27.
Flashing the ROM:
Q. What do I need to know before flashing?
A. Check the install instructions in the first post...
Q. Can the builds be dirty flashed over each other?
A. Yes, however make a nandroid backup first as there is a chance of getting a bootloop or encountering bugs. Also bugs may only be reported on a clean flash.
Q. How do I dirty flash builds?
A. Wipe the System, Cache and ART/Dalvik cache. Flash the ROM, GApps (only needed if you wipe the system), your preferred root solution and reboot. Or just use the OTA app to preform that task for you.
Q. How do I flash kernel builds?
A1. If it's a .img file, boot into TWRP and go to the install page in TWRP, in the bottom right corner select "install image", select the desired kernel, then select "boot", then swipe to flash, then go back to the install screen and install your root method again, if you don't want to loose root and reboot.
A2. If it's a flashable ZIP, you can flash it together with a ROM update or separately. Go to the install page in TWRP, choose the kernel zip (or add it to the flash queue right after the ROM zip). Then add your root method to the queue if you don't want to loose root. Now swipe to flash, and then reboot.
Using the ROM:
Q. I installed a bad theme and now I'm getting a bootloop, how do I fix it?
A. In TWRP, flash the substratum rescue zip that's in the substratum folder on the internal storage.
Q. Do I need to provide a logcat if I'm reporting a bug?
A. If you want it to be fixed faster (or at all) then yes, you should definitely provide a logcat. (Note: Please just link the logcat from your GDrive, Dropbox, etc. and do not post the content here. Thanks.
Q. How do I get a logcat, what type should I get and more questions that can conveniently be answered by my pre-determined answer?
A1. Read this thoroughly. Also, here's a good app for getting logs: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tortel.syslog (Root needed).
The ROM should contain everything you need to enjoy Android. You don't need to install any Add-on's, simply download the latest ROM, GApps, flash it and go!
If you want the device to run the ROM "rooted", you can flash a root solution of your choice after the ROM Zipfile.
It is STRONGLY recommended to fully wipe your device before flashing and please avoid restoring system apps and system data with Titanium Backup as this can cause stability issues that are very hard to debug.
If you believe you know what you're doing - then fine, go ahead, but please don't complain if you experience any strange behavior.
- Backup your personal data (Important)
- Download the ROM and GApps and transfer them to your device.
- Boot to recovery (TWRP recommended).
- Wipe the System, Cache, Data and ART/Dalvik cache.
- Flash the ROM + Gapps Zipfile.
- Flash the root solution of your choice (optional).
- Reboot your device.
The ROM has GApps persistence in between dirty flashes, so you only have to flash them once!
The root solution should be flashed together with every update (= ROM Update)
Currently Supported Root Solutions:
Magisk stable
Magisk versions higher than 14.0 doesn't require flash on every dirty flash depending on the device, some devices need you to flash it every time, unless your maintainer says otherwise it should be fine
ROM: Download Here
GApps:
Unofficial OpenGApps

This is fantastic!
But no matter what I do I can't install even core gapps. I flash them via adb sideload, perform a factory reset and nothing.. I feel like I've tried everything. There's no problem with Magisk tho. Can you please include some gapps in the rom?

Amazing news! Official ROM and latest Android version!
Hopefully the permissive SELinux can be sorted out with enough logs, but still, very nice work so far.

Does anyone can help me about the recovery via fastboot installation? I mean is there need to change slot e.t.c... And after recoverie's flashing, how we reboot to recovery, via a simple fastboot command?Thanks.

Yeah, a12 not so fast at gapps bringup, we have limited chose to BitGapps, Nikgapps or FlameGapps, and Nikgapps with FlameGapps have some issues while flashing it on some devices (already reported to the dev), and only BitGapps works fine, but there are only Minimal package.
However i created a modified Nikgapps(stock) package - download

Generally speaking, IMHO doesn't matter how you got into recovery be it by command or power+vol+

And the slots? Is there any need to change them during flashing?

papafan said:

When you flash something over fastboot you are to manage slots. When you do by recovery it manages slots. So up to flashing the recovery you'll manage slots. Afterwards flashes are done by recovery. Since recovery changes slots when you flash rom or update. Both slots should have the same firmware level (e.g. android 11 firmware.) If you have incompatible firmware on other slot it may cause problems on next update or full flash. IMHO op should explain a bit more about slot management. The same process is known to cause unwanted problems before. You can check the lineageos 18.1 oss thread for it.

Hi,
Is it possible to safely install this ROM from android 10 stock EU version? (or, must I already be under A11 and in this case what should I do?)
I'm still stuck on A10 and the September 2020 security patch on my French version of the Mi A3
Sorry I'm a beginner

I think you must first update to a11. Do factory reset on your a10 first.

Problem is that I still do not have the possibility to do OTA to A11...
In France we are literally blocked on A10 and the September 2020 security patch...

Then you can flash it with mi flash.

I don't understand what to do in order not to lose my data, I would just like to update.
If I want to install the update without fear I have to make a backup. OK
To make a full backup I need TWRP. OK
To install TWRP to be able to make my backup and not lose any data I have to root my device with magisk. OK
If I root my device with magisk it makes me wipe all my data...

If I were you I wouldn't rely on twrp for backup. Because once you update to A11 you ll have problem with twrp hence restoring it. On the other hand even if you are able to restore it somehow, probably you would end up with a bootloop anyway. Because when android version changes, data partition backup of other versions won't be compatible with newer one. I suggest you to have per app backup within os.

New update is out!

New update is out!

everything working fine, new icons and animations for udfps are pretty good and now it recognizes really fast. one thing i noticed is that the screen flicks when unlocking with figngerprint but just a little bit, its not something that really bothers as before. updating was fine without even needing to make a backup. anyways ty for, basically, the best rom for mi a3, if it wasnt that, i think we all would have already changed it. keep up the good work!

I just did the installation and the rom is fantastic!
Leaving Miui..
Everything seems to work very well.
Congratulations to those involved!!
Sorry for my english, I'm from Brazil

Sorry my fault, I was confused with the other camera app which i installed and didn't notice I wasn't using the default camera app. Anyway thanks for your answer, everything works fine with the roms camera app.
And one more question (not very similar with the ROM, excuse me)
How can i disable the second sim (obviously with magisk i think) and can i schedule on-off?
Thanks in advance!
(P.S. so far the ROM looks awesome!!!!)

For other user information, the ROM support disabling sim card (i was looking on the wrong place)
To disable sim card go to:
Settings- network & internet - sims - select the sim card - and togle the switch on/off to use Sim card.
If anyone knows any way to schedule on/off Sim card please let me know.

لقد قمت بتنزيل أحدث إصدار ولسوء الحظ أنه سيء للغاية
Mod Edit: English Translation Below
I downloaded the latest version and unfortunately it's too bad

i got OTA update notification.
rom downloaded by updater,
rebooted to recovery, but "error" during update.
at last i freshly installed again.

La carga rapida no funciona solo se activa cuando conectas el teléfono luego se activa la carga lenta eso es molesto.

La carga rápida se pone lenta ..es el único detalle que habría que mejorar

Notes
• Build type: User
• Encryption not supported, Decrypted by default
• Selinux is Enforcing
• FMRadio Included
• Do not flash recovery.img available on the spark download website
Flashing Instructions:
Clean flash (Coming from a different ROM):
• Download ROM
• Download Custom Google Apps Package (Like Nikgapps core/basic or Mindthegapps) if the ROM is Vanilla variant (On GApps ROM variant Google Apps are included, don't flash a separate Custom Google Apps package)
• Reboot to Recovery.
• Wipe System, Data, Vendor, Cache, Dalvik/ART cache partitions
• Flash latest stable firmware v11.0.3.0 before flashing ROM
• Flash ROM zip
• Flash Custom Google Apps Package if the ROM is Vanilla variant
• Reboot to system
To get root access, Reboot to recovery after ROM setup and flash Magisk.zip
BOOTLOOP SITUATION: If you are coming from stock/custom MIUI or any ROM which had data ENCRYPTION, you will face bootloop and can not boot into the system. In such case you need to FORMAT data after flashing the ROM. Otherwise the ROM won't boot (Read detailed instructions from here)
Dirty flash (Updating to a newer build):
• Download the new update ROM zip
• Reboot to recovery
• Do not wipe anything
• Flash the new update ROM zip
• Flash the same Custom Google Apps Package again you flashed before (For vanilla users)
• Flash Magisk again if you are rooted before (For rooted users)
• Wipe Cache and Dalvik/ART cache
• Reboot to system
Important note regarding SparkOS 13.6 update
This is a huge rebase of the ROM's source code after the March update, So Clean flash is MANDATORY for all users. Some bugs from previous versions have been fixed in this version and some new features can be noticed. Some customizations have been temporarily removed (eg: Smart charging, QS row & column customisation etc) and will be added in future releases (Read official community post).
You should be aware of some known source bugs in this release before updating to 13.6. These bugs are not device specific and are present in all Spark official devices which will be fixed in the next update.
Known bugs are;
1. Launcher settings are crashing with light theme (works fine with dark theme). You can use a different Launcher but I think Pixel launcher Extended will not work anymore as spark is now completely based on lineage
2. Shortcut buttons glitches in recent panel.
3. Visual glitch on Quicksettings/Statusbar after a reboot (Restarting SystemUI fixes it for now)

No issues with viper4Android here.
Check if you've rooted properly?
Or maybe you are using a mod version of viper4Android.

Been using it for half a year and it's the best Android 13 rom I tried (not that there's many that are up to date)

I used the repackaged v4a from github. Clearly something went wrong here if it's working at your end. I'll try again later when I'm home as I'll need to install from scratch having reverted to A12. Guessing maybe I just needed to reboot again or something. Here's the version I used:
GitHub - programminghoch10/ViPER4AndroidRepackaged: A refined ViPER4Android installer.
A refined ViPER4Android installer. Contribute to programminghoch10/ViPER4AndroidRepackaged development by creating an account on GitHub.
github.com
I have to say the smooth responsiveness on these new A12/A13 ROM builds is surprising given how often A11 would lock up for me. Maybe my device just finally needed a reset idk.

OK. Mystery solved. Turns out that Viper4Android does indeed work - it just needed an extra reboot.
So I flash it > reboot > v4a App appears on next boot but doesn't work > reboot again > v4a works.
Weird but makes sense. Sorry for the confusion.

I couldn't receive this kind of google login authorization on this rom "is it you trying to sign in". Device wasn't appearing in google account double verification. No problem in a13 elixir.
Also sadly no option 2g connectivity.
Rom itself seems smooth. ATM moved back to A10

I have problem, the screen show on/ off at redmi boot logo

CPU cores seam to be locked to 1400 mhz

Hello İ installed latest Spark OS gapps build on my a205f i loved the rom but it has a bug phone screen freezes cant close the screen no reaction to calls,notifications,holding down the power button the only solution is to wait for the battery drain it happened 2 times what can i do i guees this build is laggy

This is possibly a long shot but any chance of modified files for higher quality audio on Bluetooth SBC (or AAC)? It used to be you could patch it in via Magisk but the module no longer works on newer android versions and if I'm correct the edits need to be made before a ROM is built. If you're able to, any chance of some experimental files for me to try out?
I think the values are in a2dp_sbc_encoder for SBC, a2dp_aac for AAC. A2DP_XXX_DEFAULT_BITRATE 000 where XXX is SBC or AAC and 000 is the bitrate in kbit/s.

Hi,
I installed this rom, until I see it I'm liking it, but the screen rotation doesn't work.
Any idea?
Thanks...

Hello everyone, just flashed this ROM on my Vince (coming from Elixir 3.3 - A13).
Since I use this phone to debug my apps, I need to connect Chrome DevTools to it.
What I've done so far:
- wiped everything
- installed Spark-13.3-Official-vince-20230105-gapps
- installed Magisk 25.2
- registered my Google account
- updated all apps (through Play Store)
- enabled Developer options, then USB debugging
Now, when I launch Chrome DevTools on PC, I can see the phone but the webpages list is empty; it also doesn't show any WebView instance (see the screenshot below).
Remote debug was working with Elixir 3.3 on the same phone and PC, so I suppose the difference is in some ROM setting... something to be changed here, but I'm out of ideas...
Does anyone have any suggestions about this?

First, make sure you have enabled auto rotate screen option. It is disabled by default.
If it's enabled send a screenshot from sensor test app (available in playstore). ROM doesn't have issues auto rotates screen.

View attachment 5804415
Remote debug was working with Elixir 3.3 on the same phone and PC, so I suppose the difference is in some ROM setting... something to be changed here, but I'm out of ideas...
Does anyone have any suggestions about this?

Can you send logcat?
I am not using this feature. I will test this later.

First, make sure you have enabled auto rotate screen option. It is disabled by default.
If it's enabled send a screenshot from sensor test app (available in playstore). ROM doesn't have issues auto rotates screen.

Seems like you messed up persist
So flash persist.img via recovery (in persist partition) and reboot into system. Do not wipe anything.

Dirty flash still not supported (tree changed), please make a clean flash

Thank you so much for keepng Lineage alive, its very much appreciated.

@leo_97 thank you for this new build! Installed it straight away and now the phone is running since then and also, I've flashed with battery at 67% and atm, after a quite hard usage to test out the new features, I'm on 13%. Basically, so far so good!
p2a42, twrp 3.7, rooted, unencrypted

Thank you @leo_97 !
I was frustrated that Lineageos 18.1 was no longer maintained when I saw this update!
It's amazing
To all users and developers who tested and created this ROM, is it time to switch on this version ?
Or is it better to wait ?
For example, automatic update is possible after install ?

You are welcome
If it's time to switch, I believe it's a matter of personal decision. Maybe you could wait the next build and then decide...
If with "automatic updates" you mean OTA updates, then the answer (as already pointed out by @utwer ) is no. But once the trees are stable enough, I hope every user will be able to just update to the newer versions flashing ROM ZIP through TWRP (just like it's done on LOS18.1)
BTW, IDK if you already saw it, but we are maintaining a monthly build of LOS18.1 which you can download from here. The source tree used there is far more tested (as it's older) than this one. Anyway, except by the encryption thing, you shouldn't have any problems using this LOS19.1 ROM as our amazing developers made an excellent job here.

Reg, Ive installed it and I may say it is quite good. Not tried to root it yet. Dont have direct problems with ROM and functionality, for me everything works. Camera, Location, GSM, Data, WiFi. With developer options I've turned off Animation scale on three options to OFF, and is good. Stable reliable.
MindTheGapps-12.1 works every app from Google, Phone, Contact, Gmail, maps...etc...
What I need root mostly is for Call recording (Skvalex) and Viper4Android.
Some words about twrp-3.7.0_9-0-kuntao.img,
With this I have only problems, so far I lost a few backups and I need to install it all over again a few times allready. Disappointed very. I can't rally on this when I make a nandroid ba.ckups.
Also lost backups for LOS18.1 and I am been very pis....ed off. Error 255 on System recovery, other Data, Boot, EFS, Vendor, etc.. recovery is good.
So I've installed OrageFox for Kuntao. Tried several backups to restore already and I may say I am very satisfied. Puh
What is on my mind, when I installed a Magisk 25.2, no matter of LOS 18.1 or 19.1 with very few modules, after 7-8 reboots I've got boot loops which is beyond repairable.. Try to remove modules in TWRP in file manager, uninstall whole magisk, no way, but what it is seems that DATA got corrupted some how, everytime.
There were also installed TWRP mentioned above.
Now I am with OrangeFox and I will try tomorrow to Root it and see is there any connection between Magisk and recovery software (OrangeFox or TWRP).
Reg

Tried quickly this ROM yesterday. In general all working, but didn't test much.
Few feedbacks:
-Scaler for brightness level is weird, very different from the original Lenovo roms. Anyway, not really important, but something that I noticed.
-Missing haptic feedback when using the fingerprint reader as a gesture button. Again, not critical, but I am really accustomed to it and thus I noticed immediately.
-Missing haptic feedback intensity regulation, or could not find it. It's there for general call/notification vibration, but if I remember correctly lineage could also change haptic.
Impressed that you could integrate also some lenovo features, even if of course not all of them
If you want me to test something more specific, please let me know. Ah, my model is the 4 GB/ 64 GB combination.
Cheers!

So for 18.1 we can just flash the newer versions via TWRP and do not have to reinstall the entire ROM?

So,
Resolved issue of bootloops:
after you install SU like Magisk, and wan to freeze apps by Titanium Backup or Neo-Backup, Apps which causes bootloops are ROM's Phone and Massages (In my case, for 16.1, 18.1, 19.1), I freeze Audio.apk who need to be shutdown for Viper4Android app who takes audio management and freezing is OK.
But Phone and Massages which are frozen cause bootloops, so you need to return from freeze state somehow in TWRP or OrangeFox with file management or revert backup. Revert backup is easier .
Camera; found issue when suddenly is out of work and cannot be connected to app. Also have problems with video cast Skype, Viber, Whatsapp, Telegram video is frozen. Hardly switch in Camera app from Camera mode to Video mode and vice-versa.
Clock & Info; missing dock icons and info, can't "capture" moment for reason when they disappear but after a while all is returned again.
P2oggle, left switch button work okey in form of 0.4 version.
Reg,
thanks on the development for this 19.1 ROM.

Hello,
I've been using this ROM as my daily driver and couldn't confirm this camera bug, could you please give a few extra details? I tested on Telegram app. Which version are you using? The Play Store's one or the one from Telegram's official website? Did you give the app "While using app" permission or "Ask every time" permission for camera? Are you sure the QS Tile "Camera access" is activated (available) when the mentioned bug occurs?
Regarding the Clock widget, yes, there's a small glitch and I'm not sure on how to fix it, if it doesn't load at all, a system reboot should fix it.
P2oggle v1.2 is 100% working as far as I can tell, so you guys can try it too if you want.

I'm not sure if it's possible to "fix" the brightness slider.
If with "haptic feedback" you mean the phone vibration, you can just adjust it to your liking in Settings > Lenovo parts > Vibration strength, it should affect fp reader too, dunno if it affects call vibration but IFAIK it should.

Yes on latest Telegram app from web site, tried with Google Meet, Whatsapp, Viber.., always breaking connection with API/drivers. Yes I gave all permissions to Camera. If I am not giving permissions for camera, I have always noticed to confirm what I am giving, so I am excluded from this solution. And clean storage and cashe from app regular but not prevail.
But, in a while after installed a new ROM without giving SU/Root I noticed this behavior, right after I wrote earlier post up. My bad .
Choppy startup of camera, can't easily transfer from video 2 camera and vice-versa, so I tell to my self to test intensively.
Regarding the Clock widget, yes, there's a small glitch and I'm not sure on how to fix it, if it doesn't load at all, a system reboot should fix it.

Big Thank you for this release. Will try it. - test

Great job, dude.
Previous versions had some buggy charging driver that left a wakelock running after each charging, and u had to restart phone each time or leave it to slowly drain battery by not going to sleep.
Somehow this problems seems to be gone in your build and that is awesome.
I've been using the build for about 2 weeks now and so far everything seems to be working fine.
