New Pocophone user here with a couple of questions. - Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers

After a couple of time, I managed to unlock the bootloader (Xiaomi pls) and start rocking my new phone.
I flashed Pixel Experience but camera doesn't work properly . I tried also MIUI camera port but it doesn't save the taken photos until I restart the app. Is there a working camera app? I don't care much about IA or beauty enhancements, I'm ugly af anyways lol.
Also, there's a way to hide the notch and use it as a normal phone? Like clock and system indicators in the right and a whole screen for notifications. I picked Poco besides of the notch, but in fact I hate that new trend among manufacturers. For me notch is a mistake and I want to get rid of it.
Besides that, Pocophone is an amazing budget mobile. Performance is outstanding and I never had a heating issue (like Moto G4 Plus, my former phone).
Thanks in advance.

I can recommend flashing NitrogenOS and sideloading gcam + magisk module if lagging (not sure if needed, dont have a poco)
You can hide the notch there and gcam works well from what i know

You need to flash the camera fix zip in Pixel experience then it works smoothly/

Update your vendor+firmware first before flashing PE
0 problems with GCam on PE
You can hide the notch in developer settings

Thanks, the PE thread don't say anything about flashing vendor nor firmware, but I flashed what @Mooatreides posted here and now the cam works like a charm.
The notch issue is the other thing. I managed to locate the option to hide it, but the UI still shows the status bar as there's a notch covering it. I want the clock and system stuff in the right, and notification icons in the left, just like old Androids. I google'd it without any success.
But thanks for everything, at least cam is working, notch is just a cosmetic thing.

My honest review about the Stock Oreo Update (Open for Debate)

Hello my fellow LG G6 users,
after I got my LG G6 I unlocked the bootloader and installed Fulmics ROM without hesitation. I don't really care about my warranty when I on the other hand have the ability to enjoy the newest LG UX, Magisk with Viper4Android and the iOS Emojis, or the better battery life. Using a AOSP ROM really never came to my mind since it's known for it's bugs, bad picture quality, battery life and so on. So I used Fulmics 4.2, Melina Kernel and Magisk.
With the announcement of Oreo I really got excited for it, but after @xpirt (btw thanks for your work, beginning with the G3) announced that he likely won't continue Fulmics ROM on the G6 this excitement was quickly demolished. I really rely on some of the tweaks of the ROM. But since I really wanted to see the improvements of Oreo so I flashed the Firmware a few days ago.
Starting with the Firmware for the H870. First of all it's hard to even get the newest (20B) since this is the version with the camera improvements and rebranding of the G6. But after installing it I quickly realized that there are many issues with the Oreo build and many missing features you may know from Nougat and the Fulmics ROM.
1. Original icons are not working with the Stock Google Apps. There will always be this white frame around most of the icons, which is not as good looking as before
2. When you're using bluetooth headphones you will get a persistent notification that you can switch your media output between the G6 speakers and your bluetooth output. A so called "feature". I really don't know how to get rid of it, since you cannot silence it. LINK
3. Battery life is the worse I've ever seen, even worse than AOSP Roms. I'm not even a heavy user but I only get around 3hrs Screen On time which is unacceptable for a last year 2017 flagship.
4. Always on Icons like the battery percentage and the battery symbol itself are not removable and they will always be there LINK
5. Neat features like customization of the QS tiles and volume up/down for skipping tracks on your music app are gone
6. Bluetooth connectivity is in general worse, headphones are randomly disconnecting. LINK
7. SD Card issues with the unofficial 20B build on the westwood24 Firmware 20A thread. SD Cards over 32GB seem to be corrupted for the system
8. Some notifications are not getting displayed like the notification badge on the app icons
These are only some of things that really bother me on pure Stock Oreo. Even with Magisk and Substratum installed which are able to do some of the things, Fulmics Tweaks is easily capable of, with many difficulties.
This thread should not blame LG (Maybe a bit with there so called "features") but may warn some of the users on a very customized and good Fulmics Version when they think about switching to the stock Oreo Firmware, since I personally going to switch back to Fulmics.
Feel free to comment possible solutions for the problems (s.o.) or your own experience with Stock Oreo.
I experience none of the problems with stock oreo.
Its way better than fulmics.

Just edited some links into the thread supporting my points. Which problems exactly don't you have with stock Oreo ?
I don't want miss the new 1password function. This is new in Oreo. Security and so on are better with Oreo. No, I don't want go back to fulmics. Fulmics are very nice, but I need the Oreo features.

I have workarounds for some of these problems. I am on unrooted, stock oreo.
1. Custom launcher with an icon pack. Easy solution.
2. You COULD try disabling the bluetooth app with LG Package disabler, which silences the notification. However, things start to break. I figure, since you're rooted, you could do something with Tasker. Just an idea.
3. Debloat. Or, use LG Package disabler. My battery is nowhere near as bad - an average of 4-5hrs SoT, and this seems to work just fine.
4. It's not really a remedy or anything, but I use the app "Glimpse Notifications" instead of AoD, which turns on the screen briefly and shows the notification. It uses very little battery.
5. Never found those useful, and I don't use the stock music app. Aren't QS tiles still customizable?
6. I just don't use bluetooth headphones. We still have a headphone jack, don't you remember?
7. Never encountered this issue because I have a 16gb sd card.
8. Works on Nova just fine. Maybe check the stock launcher's notification permissions.
As much as I dislike this phone, I've just gotta make do with what I have until my contract is up.
Same here. Honestly, I'm not have these issues either.
The only thing that bothers me after the update is the slight but noticeable performance hit, mainly the lag when starting apps that aren't already running in the background.
But I haven't done a factory reset (out of laziness) which might take care of the problem.

I get 5 hrs SOT with 20b. Don't know why one would get three, but the Rom or Oreo are not the reason apparently.
I like the stock ROM, even though I've been using custom on several phones before this one, since it has VOLTE and T-mobile wifi calling. Don't see any lag I have not been able to get rid of.
I agree it's a bummer that the devs have mostly walked out on the G6.

Things that i wish comes to Poco F1 custom ROM's

Hey all,
Here's some of the things that i wish comes to custom developing roms from miui -
1.Full screen gestures - honestly, i didn't thing i would get hooked to this after using it just for 3days (root limit!) and now i miss it more everyday (i always first swipe right to left only to realize i have to reach down to back button.)
Used & tried all sorts of apps like T- swipe gestures & Xda's own -Navigation gesture app, none of them can satisfy that animation & control.
2. Both wifi & hotspot on simultaneously
Seriously, this is one of the first things that shocked me, coming from a Yu Yureka, this thing literally surprised me, imagine having a repeater/receiver/broadcast at the same time(now i know it's not a big deal for some of u, but in some areas where there is a weak network and u need that wifi speed on both ur laptop & mobile, this thing is a blessing.)
3.otp copy right on notification
Small thing, but crucial for fast work
4.lock screen's quick animation
Ok this is one those things that miui did in order to look fast in unlocking (which it is!) but on casual custom ROM, all default animations make it look slow, & changing speed of such from develpment causes other animations (such as music visualisation!) to seem like they are lagging or catching up.
5.sim card minute control
dual sim exists for one good one ok ( or one personal & business) and some one doesn't have any network & simply becomes a dead weight for the battery (checking for network every 5secs!) this thing also makes what we as a control freaks more aligned to our quest to total control of phone? (atleast last is true for me, it annoys the hell out for me.)
So, u guys must be thinking, why not switch to debloated miui & use other developments ?
First because there is no 9.0 pie in it( new phones needs latest and greatest for me!)
Second, i hate miui UI and after been using stock-ish rom for past five years(in yureka!) u can't blame me for those clean animations & material design.
These are some of the things i hope i share is common with u all, as if this agrees with u, just show it to ur near & dearest developers & hope they agree too.?
I'm Tanmay Dwivedi, and i'm happy to be a part of the poco f1's family!
P.S add more features & things which u think should be in custom roms!
IR face unlock is all that's stopped me flashing a custom ROM. I'm hooked

change settings menu of 7.1+

going from the "spread" out optins of v7 (v20) to the clown colors of the compressed (menu in menu) v7.1 and onwards, that clown show color theme is horrific.
any way to change it back to the way 7.0 settings menu looked?
its like having the app on the screen instead of finding it amongst other apps in a folder. I hate folders
I also dont like the color theme. is there a monotone theme?
any way to change badges for certain apps on the v30? clock , notes and camera badges are horrible. I prefer very simplistic and clean designs.
I have to say I just don't understand your question. Are you asking about V20, as opposed to V30? And if so about Nougat 7.1, wanting to make it look like Nougat 7.0?
If so, have you considered posting in the V20 forum?
Afraid I don't remember Nougat anymore. Most V30 users are on Pie, while some have chosen to stay on (or roll back to) Oreo. Myself included. But Nougat, that's 3 years ago.
apologies. let me explain again. I have a v20 and v30
the v20 is on v7.0
I love the layout of the settings menu. I like that they have a setting for each thing separately (mostly), unlike the v30 7.1 which has many settings together and you have to go a few menus deep to change things. basically clicking more to get to the setting.
as well, the v20 has a monotone design which is clean. the v30 has a multi colored theme and each settings has different colors. it looks cartoonish and not aesthetic.
so on these 2 fronts it doesnt look good imo.
you can change icon/badges with a theme pack, but what about changing the way the menu looks?
is there a v7 rom for a v30 ? id be happy to use any version as long as I didnt have that multi colored look and clicking so much just to get to a setting.
reminds me of windows 10. everything is swept under a rug and in the settins you cant even find anything because you have to click so much just to find it.
heres an image showing side by side what I had on the right and the new settings menu looks horrible. grouping settings together is like sweeping things under a rug or the "Matryoshka doll" effect
https://imgur.com/a/ObTu6uW
I see, I understand now what you're saying, including that you were comparing V20 v7.0 to V30 v7.1.
Afraid I have no suggestions though. Hopefully somebody does. Personally I never thought of that as an issue.
Are you intent on staying on Nougat? There are many more ROMs and Mods if you're willing to go to Oreo or Pie. And I'm not aware of anything on V30 that worked better on Nougat than Oreo, at least not anything significant.

Instead of trying to go further back into the past (even earlier Nougat), you should update to at least last stock Oreo (8.0) firmware. So many new features and fixes were given during that era over flawed Nougat. Camera features, etc. You couldn't pay me money to go back to Nougat.. The only reason people use Nougat is temporarily when Frankenstein flashing (converting) to another North American variant. Then quickly ditching that for last Oreo or Pie.
I'm not a big fan of the V30 stock Pie (9.0) firmware myself, but others like it. But everyone agrees that last Oreo was stable, feature filled magic. If you are rooted, on last Oreo you even get DTS 3D Surround Stereo feature (in the firmware but hidden, has to be activated with root).

that green nasty dialer color is absolutely disgusting. when you call someone and the screen turns green. its horrible. it ruins my eyes. I cant stand it. it drives me absolutely crazy, instead of white, now I have this hideous annoying green. I thought android was about use customizing and here it is working completely against me
I dont want oreo or anything besides 7.0
I had issues since updating
ill take the primitive old design then anything from 7.1. its a crap gui. absokutely stupid and way way more intrusive. everything is hidden menu under menu.
im actually considering getting a dumb phone just for calls and text and a simple garbage phone for anything else. ive stopped surfing on a phone as i cant block ads and cant find a proper browser that blocks ads AND stays on desktop agent mode as default for all sites. its crap. screw opera. no more. adblock browser is crap brave is crap. they either do one or the other
but agaun, that ugly asz android 7.1 and up has a horrible gui. and who the hellk thought to turn a screen fully green to make calls is good?

Question Hide Notch option

Hey All !
I'd like to know if anybody knows if there's an option not to hide the notch in the system, i can't find that in the settings, even in Notifications & Control Center/Status Bar.
That's kinda annoying because i have a black bar on some full screen apps.
(Btw i'm running MIUI 12.5.7 China Stable)
Kind regards,
P.N

If the issue is with the notch, you want to take a look at developer options, but if the issue is with full screen apps is in the settings from the app to allow or not displaying them in this mode.
Thanks for your reply !
I already looked for these 2 settings,it doesn't remove that black bar on my status bar. I didnnt have that on my mi 9t, that's why it bothers me

Mm, I guess it solves if you hide the notch but moving the status bar, maybe an update? I remember some versions didn't include some features. In the meantime, you should read that https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/non-root-ota-hide-notch-fit-status-bar-with-notch.3838642/

Thank you very much for showing me this thread, I will wait to flash the xiaomi.eu rom then try it if the problem persists. If it's still there i'm definitely going to try this method !

I'll flash the Xiaomi.eu tuesday, i'll tell you more about that issue with that rom
Hey Guys !
So I flashed the xiaomi.eu ROM and there is the same issue, i tried SubwayChamp's method without success because i can't install the apk found in the guide
I don't know what to do, it's really dumb to have such a bar with the mix 4 screen...
Crazy isnt it, buy a phone with an under display camera and still get screen missing, i think the only phone i had that worked perfect was the Oneplus 7 pro.
Probably you can try by "moving" the screen (or simulating to do that) by reducing the screen tall.
If this method is still available in the current android version, you can try it https://nerdschalk.com/change-screen-resolution-adb-android/
For example, the resolution in MM4 is 2400x1080 if my source is not wrong, so you can do by trial-and-error 2370x1080, if not then 2350x1080 till get a comfortable view.
In MIUI-12.5 there is no option of moving screen smaller by reducing screen tall. They removed this option. This is causing problem, some notification icons get hidden under the front cam notch. Irritable thing.
Once you have Magisk installed, use this module
Tried with Xiaomi.eu, works perfectly
Without Root, any solution?
@Uometydev Nice, it's better than nothing, it would be perfect to find something that doesn't require ROOT.​

Hello guys, I am considering to buy Mi Mix 4 and it is really difficult to find info on this other than youtube reviews all saying same stuff.
My question is, if I use the stock ROM and no root, will I get this black bar or notch sometimes? I thought the camera was always hidden?
Second question is, how invisible is the camera really? On some video reviews, when the screen is off or on a white background, I can see the circle for the camera, but someone said it is just the cutout on the screen protector. So the screen protector has a hole for camera? Anyone tried removing the screen protector? Is the cutout or the camera completely invisible then?

Hey !
I had that black bar when i received the device on an official ROM, it may be fixed later tho (or have been fixed on official).
As i'm using xiaomi.eu Rom atm i can't tell but i still got that issue on some apps with EU rom, to me, that's the only drawback the phone has atm.
The camera is really hard to see, you can see it when you're screen brightness is low mostly on dark grey colors. When you're using it with full or 75% brightness it is slightly visible on dark colors (except black where it invisible because of the OLED) but it is really good and million times better than a hole punch.
Imo it is not an issue : I never bought a phone with a notch because i can't stand this and believe me, the UPC on the MIX 4 is amazing.

Have you tried on miui 13. I have tried many time but no success

I'm looking for a custom rom for the Redmi Note 4x that has the following features:

Hi there! I'm looking for a custom rom that has the following:
- Android 11 or less (Android 12 is very heavy ) - ( I was using LOS 19.1 by zeelog with A12 and the truth is that the phone suffered a lot with certain apps. Android 12 is definitely not for this phone).
- A good "one handed mode" like original miui rom.
- Stable and smooth and without many bugs. That the features of this phone work without problems. (fingerprint, led notifications, etc)
- Something customizable
- Some built-in tool like closing applications with security (fingerprint, password)
I was looking through the CR "resurrection remix" had some of these features but nowhere did I find if it had "one handed mode".
ArrowOs is another CR that generates me doubt, but I do not know if it is very stable and if it has some features that I need especially the "one handed mode".
I discarded MIUI custom roms because the last one I had (original) was being too slow, I do not want to imagine a more updated CR.

You're absolutely right, Android 12 is too much that mido can handle. Pick A11 or A10.
My all-time favourite custom rom is crDroid - very long time in the market, good opinion. Smooth, stable and customizable. Unfortuanetly I don't think you will find any rom with MIUI-like one-handed mode. There was an Xposed module mimicking this behaviour (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=cn.zhougy0717.xposed.niwatori&hl=en_US&gl=US) but it's long gone I think

Hello!
Exactly that custom rom I was trying to install now, it feels smooth but I miss the fact that it even has a one-handed mode. Thanks for the recommendation!

Yes, but it's obsolete and Im not sure on which Android version it was working fine... But there are some nice alternatives to one-handed mode which doesn't require root. Have you tried something like this perhaps?
Quick Cursor: One-Handed mode - Apps on Google Play
Makes it easier to use large smartphones with one hand by using a cursor.

Yes, but it's obsolete and Im not sure on which Android version it was working fine... But there are some nice alternatives to one-handed mode which doesn't require root. Have you tried something like this perhaps?
Quick Cursor: One-Handed mode - Apps on Google Play
Makes it easier to use large smartphones with one hand by using a cursor.

amazing recommendation! thanks you
I installed the first app, also the xposed module to make it work and it worked only when I opened the app, then when I exited the app it didn't work anymore, I don't know what I've been doing wrong (I'm a newbie) or if the app really doesn't work well for android 11.
But the second application can replace although it is not the same obviously, but to get out of the way serves.

Nice, I'm glad you like it. Sometimes it's even better than one handed mode since you can reach everything while still keeping big screen. I use something similar but root-based, although I'm on MIUI and still have one handed mode
