Having problems with MIUI X1 Elite ROM :(

Hey!,
So Ive been trying to update to this ROM for some time now (coming from miui elite 9.7) but whenever I try I always seem to have bootloop problems. The first time the rom successfully installed and was working perfectly for about a day until I tried to reboot it and it didn't boot back up (stuck at the white huawei screen). So I booted into recovery and flashed the rom again...didn't even boot this time.
Recently, I flashed PaulMillbank's (think that's it??) version of the X1 elite rom w/ market including his custom kernel and it worked for about 2 days until it froze...went into reboot...but didn't boot back up...again \(>_<)/
I'm on the .32 kernel and yes I followed all the correct steps Thanks if anyone could help me, really liked that rom.
Sent from my u8800 using XDA

After replacing my display touch are not responsive.

My screen is entirely broken.. so i replace display at market and then almost all custom rom boot very well but after screen lock touch are note working.. we have to reboot device and first time touch working but after screen lock it's not responsive..
Resurrection Remix treble with moun kernel & stock rom working fine..
Any other rom are not working after screen lock.
Please any one help for this problem??

I have this exact same problem. I tried with LiquidRemix and didn't check any other ROMs. Thought it was some kind of hardware problem but after reading your comment i guess it wasn't, as you said its working in RR. Thanks for finding that out. Now i am going to try each and every ROM available to check which one works and which one don't. I also think this must be a kernel problem as there are no hardware issues. Can you flash moun kernel in different ROMs to check whether it works or not?

Cosmicdan's Twrp is not working for me. Only mohancm's twrp 3.2.1-2 is working but after locking and relocking the screen in TWRP.
Just flashed RR non treble and the touch is not working after the screen lock
How did you flash RR treble if the cosmicdan's twrp is not working. Was your device already partitioned for treble or is there any workaround?

Yes Cosmicdan's Twrp not working but if you install stock ROM and then install Cosmicdan's Twrp then it will work for sure..

Hmm i'll try that in a bit (making backups 1st). Can you please guide me how you got MIUI 10 working as I am not able to do so. Should i flash stock nougat ROM 1st and then flash MIUI 10? I tried following the steps stated in the forum but i am always getting bootloops.
Sorry for bugging you with my nooby questions :silly:

Don't need to flash stock ROM I'm on Resurrection Remix treble ROM and for flashing I followed steps stated in forum.. it's work for me no bootloops.
First fastboot flash userdata userdata.img and then boot into Twrp and flash ROM zip that's all.

Userdata.img is not necessary, just install the rom and format data(must) then reboot

Thnx for the help guys but after spending hours flashing different ROMs, TWRPs and kernels, I finally found the solution for the touch screen bug.
eXtreme kernel is the only kernel that was able to fix the screen completely. Its working in all of the custom ROMs (tried on LOS15.1 & 16, RR, LR Oreo and pie, etc.)
The stock versions of francokernel, void kernel are able to fix the touch screen but it breaks WiFi so they are not a complete fix.
And btw stock versions of Franco,extreme,void kernels work on the stock ROM.

my touch doesnt work on pin screen and in twrp **help** after flash from stock oreo to this rom exl. format data /system and cache..
must i calibrate this or?? when i pres 1 touch meen 9 homebuttons too
is my touch broken or its a bug??

Were you able to solve this problem? Can you put the link to download the kernel?

Is installing custom roms after pie still broken?

Hi! I finally got the pie update but I'm not convinced by it... I would like to install a custom rom but I've heard that installing a custom rom bricks your phone
Is there any workaround?

I updated to Pie and after that have flashed all major ROMs for Tissot without any issue.

Can't flash AOSP roms after MIUI 12 Android 11 roms.

I've been using for a couple of months a M12 A11 Rom from a Greek forum. Last time I tried (2 months ago), I couldn't get my phone to boot when I flashed an AOSP rom like Lineage. I tried 2 different roms with the same results. What can I do to fix that? I used Orange Recovery R11.0.

Download firmware Miui 11 for fastboot flash via Miflash tool

Has anyone managed to get any custom ROM to work on a SM-A405FN/DS ?

Hello !
Has anyone actually managed to get any custom ROM to work on a Samsung Galaxy A40 SM-A405FN/DS ?
Mine is currently running the current latest stock ROM (SM-A405FN_2_20211030045838_jg43vcqbiw_fac) downloaded with Frija and I managed to install TWRP from here : https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/recovery-a40-teamwinrecoveryproject-3-6-x-unofficial.4364575/
However, ANY custom ROM that I try to install :
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/a11-r-arm64-a40-lineageos-18-1-unofficial-by-kevios12.4335409/
https://sourceforge.net/projects/eurekaroms/files/Samsung/A40/R/lineage/
GSI
maybe others that I forgot
will either bootloop or end up with a black screen.
Looking at the following threads, I'm starting to wonder if the SM-A405FN/DS is custom-ROM-compatible at all ?
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/help-my-a405fn-wont-boot-any-custom-rom.4337041/
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/samsung-a40-black-screen.4354421/
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/galaxy-a40-infinite-loop-impossible-to-turn-on.4337343/

Im running CrDroid 7.13 without any issues with root and gapps. Many custom roms bootloop because of your newer firmware with Bit/SW REV.
Security Patch Lvl. being 4 and those custom rom were built on the older firmware with probably patch level 3. I had installed DotOS fan edition fully working like a year ago, then I tried some new custom roms, which somehow broke my system so the system couldnt start up even after reflashing original boot image, so I reflashed to the newest firmware which was working, then I tried flashing older one and it wouldnt boot, it just shows black screen with error bit/sw 3 boot 4. So you have to flah roms, whose are built on the newer bit level to boot up, the best is CrDroid and now the newest ALT-F4 version 0.0.3 from this forum: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/rom-oneui-3-1-a40-alt-f4-v0-0-1-updated-2021-12-18.4373813/
I tried it myself and it is the best for this phone, it is fully debloated and pre-rooted stock rom. I also tried CrDroid 8x, everything works for me, but it fells slow and the ram is almost maxed out. I also recommend upgrading to this TWRP: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/recovery-official-twrp-for-galaxy-a40-a405fn.4025587/
The unofficial twrps had some bugs for me. I hope this helps and happy flashing!

THANK YOU for your comprehensive reply !! I'll give ALT-F4 a try as soon as I can !

Good luck!

Well, luck has not been enough: after updating TWRP to the official version, I tried yesterday to install ALT-F4 0.0.3 but got the exact same result: black screen, need to reflash the stock ROM to make it boot (even to recovery !!) again.
Would you have any other idea ?
EDIT:
I actually tried crDroid in the past, to no avail either.
