Device Details:
Redmi 2 Prime (2014818) - wt88047
Lag:
Whenever I swipe to the "Status" tab of Whatsapp, that's between the "Chats" and "Calls" tab, there is an annoying lag that makes the phone stutter in performance. It only happens while swiping to the "Status" tab and not when swiping away from it
I'm not sure how many of you have even noticed this lag, but let me explain. This happens only in MM Roms and lower android versions and even in the official Miui (latest Lollipop build). I'm running the latest build of Viper-OS now and I have tried almost every Nougat rom out there for the device I own and I haven't faced this lag in any of them. Also, my cousin owns a Redmi Note 4 and even in that, I could notice this lag and he wasn't aware of it until I pointed it out. So I'm guessing this is a Miui thing, but am not sure. I also tried the Flyme OS (latest based on MM) and it also has this lag
Question:
Has anyone faced this or at least noticed this lag? And if so, is there any solution or workaround for this issue/lag ?
Hello, I'm a fresh member of this forum and recently upgraded my Galaxy Samsung S4 (i9505) from stock to AOSP Oreo. After the upgrade everything worked more or less as expected, the ROM is stable enough for daily use.
Unfortunately the S-view is not working like expected, if I open the (original) Samsung s-view cover the screen lights up and if I close the cover the screen goes off, but there is no clock in the display as before. Also with an incoming phone call the screen doesn't show up, or I can pick up the call by wiping over the cover window.
I installed the files below:
Unofficial TWRP recovery.img
JDCTeam-8.1.0-20171209-BETA.zip
open_gapps-arm-8.1-nano-20180119-UNOFFICIAL.zip
Kernel-B--B-PWR-CORE-AOSP-O-v3.2.zip
SR5-SuperSU-v2.82-SR5-20171001224502.zip
Also, I tried the 'S View Lite' app from play store. After closing the cover the screen is shown for a few milliseconds,but no sulution there. I also repeated the installation a few times (thanks for the nice youtube video's) to be sure I made no mistakes.
Because I miss the S-view functionality like it worked before, I post this question on the Q&A (my question on jdcteam-android-source-project-oreo-t3685231 did not get much response). Maybe someone can help me to get it going, tell me if it's working on her/his dvice or tell me I have to live with it like it is ?
there is no lineageOS rom with the Sview.
the Sview is based only on TW rom, so nothing newer more than a 5.0.1 TW rom.
and all Sview apps don't work correctly.
If you want S View, go back to TouchWiz.
If it's ever going to work on AOSP ROMs, it only does to lock the screen instead.

Hi guys, I'm the owner of this device since december 2016. I was very happy when it first arrived, it was smooth, responsive, everything worked just fine and I was very happy with Xiaomi.
Later, Xiaomi just launched Redmi Note 4 and then my nightmare began. I was always searching for new MIUI features, and as such, I've installed as soon as possible a Custom MIUI China rom, like xiaomi.eu or MIUIBrasil.
Everything was just going well, but then I've noticed that Xiaomi released MIUI 8.5 on many devices with new features, and our device began to be a little "left behind" when it came to updates.
Later Xiaomi introduced MIUI 9, with the new features and so much more improvements, however, after MONTHS waiting, our phone just got a MIUI with and Android 6.0.1 on IT, they didn't even thought about updating to Android 7, on the excuse of hardware limitations (Oh yes, let's remind that apart from Camera, our phones are EQUAL to Redmi Note 4 in specs), anyway, I've already tried a few AOSP before, and now I thought that this was the time to give it a chance again...
However, with so many ROMs out there, I just thought, OK I'll try some before picking up one to be my daily. And then it began... OK, the first thing I missed from MIUI was the ability to record calls and block calls by choosing numbers from contact list (without having to type then manually), second, Network Type Dialog, which on MIUI I could see only three options (LTE, 3G and 2G) this saves battery and on my Country, my mobile company simply have a bug on their network, and if the network type 4G is selected when data is disabled, it will charge your phone anyway, everyday for using internet... (THAT's RIDICULOUS).
Another thing is the 3 finger screenshot, yes they're present I know, but on MIUI everytime you do this, the screen "freezes" and if its a list, it won't scroll, the same thing doesn't happen on AOSP, when you do Three Finger Screenshot on a list, it scrolls before taking Screenshot.
However, one may ask, Why you're not on MIUI then, if you like it so MUCH?
Ok, I'll answer this by explaining that, I CAN'T
Yes, you read it correctly, everytime I use a MIUI (I've tried many, MIUI Stable, MIUI China, Xiaomi.eu, MIUI 8.6, MIUI 8.3, even MIUI 8.2) and on ALL of them I have the same ISSUE i'm going to report now.
RANDOM REBOOTS after installing Magisk + Xposed combo.
When I got my hands on this phone, as I mentioned early, EVERYTHING worked like a charm, it never rebooted once, Xposed and Magisk were playing nice together, I could use modules from both Magisk and Xposed, and phone was amazing, but now, with newer versions of Xposed and Magisk, it doesn't work anymore.
OK, if I knew what combination I've used in the past, I could simply try them again, but the thing is that I don't, I don't remember which version of Xposed Framework I was using when everything was fine back 1 year and half from now, neither the Magisk version.
So I'm stuck with either using MIUI and having phone rebooting every now and then (it doesn't even REBOOT totally, it just doesn't turn on screen anymore and if you put screen against source of light you can barely see the BOOTLOGO animation Stuck, like if it were burned in on screen, it's weird) or with AOSP lacking many features I found useful on MIUI.
TL;DR I'm very displeased with this phone, with how XIAOMI forgot it and how frustrated I am because I can't use it properly, I can't customize it as MY OWN, and I just wanted to use it without rebooting.
Well that's all, just wanna share that and know if anyone else had the same feeling.
Best regards
1. You can use 3rd party app to record calls on aosp. With proper searching, you can get exactly what you want. For the blocking numbers from list, how often do someone need to block a number? It's a very minor feature.
2. Yes, there are more options to choose network, but choosing only 4/3/2G is still there.
3. About the three finger screenshot, yes aosp does it bad. But, you can use custom shortcut to take screenshots, even gestures like 2 fingers side swipe, which I use on Mdroid.
There's work around for almost everything, if you look properly. And if you like things simple, surely you'll miss out some things.
I feel bad, because I can no longer go back to a regular battery sized phone
I feel exactly the same
Xiaomi abandonned us
Luckily for me I gave my markw to my sister (she doesn't care about updates ) and got myself a mido ( redmi note 4)
But I miss my 4 prime it was the perfect size note 4 is too big. And battery life is slightly less with mido
I know how you feel about custom roms.
There is always a way to fix your problem with them but it demands time to find the solutions to bugs/ non-existent function ( custom rom is not for lazy person ?)
With miui you had almost everything in 1 package
( But miui also had so many problems)
I've been using Android KitKat (4.4.4) on my Note 3 but some apps that I really need stopped working. I updated the ROM to the official Lolipop (5.0) but I've been having lots of issues and I'm not in the least happy with it.
I am now considering installing a non-official ROM. However, I need a stable ROM that allows me to use my GPS and Bluetooth without bugs or problems. I need these two features for work. Battery drainage is also a concern. I mainly use my phone for making and receiving calls, checking emails, communicating through Whatsapp and navigation (GPS). I take photos occasionally, I hardly record any videos and never take selfies. I don't game and I don't watch videos on the phone.
Is there a ROM that fits my bill or should I just consider buying a new phone?

LineageOS 18 is good but not stable (bluetooth, gps lock issues, battery drains when phone off, mobile data issues) with N910F
ResurrectionRemix....black screen at first launch after flaching
testing Havoc 4......which just crashed two days after flashing...bootloop

louis.. you have the point exactly..... there seems to be no rom that makes the fone work relaiably, i dont care about features animation whatever, but fone bluetooth etc has to work reliably. "battery drains when fone off " so so so bad the rom cant be used like this. Ive bought 2 new 5g fones recently, the note 4 is way easier to use cause things like big led alert light. The latest missed message alert using aod on xiomi on many models only gives notification for 10 mins !! and 3rd party apps break on updates. please let me know and provide link if you find a note 4 snapdragon trite rom that makes the fone work reliably, and runs around android 9 so that modern apps like my soundbar setup will work.

louis, just so i understand, what exactly is the problem with getting a reliable stable rom, has something changed since android 9 aand 10 released, or did they never work properly? and is this a general rom problem, or is the 910f snapdragon difficult in some way? .. so if i load a custom rom onto my samsung ace 4 willi have the same problems, As said, for £150 can buy fab new 5g fone, but no permenant missed message alert led some no 3.5 jack , sd storage, infra red and of course removable battery. The most annoying is no PERMENANT missed message alert. Its difficult to find out if a particular fone have this or not from the helplines. (For others, the latest mi 11 lite 5g is max 10 mins aod, "permenant" does not exist on the settings menu. and 3rd party apps break on updates )
Actually, I am no expert so I don't what issues are there with new roms, but indeed they are not usable on a daily basis.
