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?

Hi, Guys Im A rom tester since 2 weeks I Installed Some Roms Like Lineage Os,Aosp,FireHound Rom But After Installation Phone Boot But Touch Did Not Working.....
As far as i know the touch screen doesn't infects by installing other ROM's, it's a kernel that does infects. I think it's a hardware issue. Try to flash the original Mi A1 from the original site : http://en.miui.com/download-333.html

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..

Hi, my girlfriend have this phone and i install the last pixel experience ROM, but now i want install the last official stock ROM (pie). Any tutorial for do this? Thanks
I'm currently on stock pie Jan patch, and I want to install a custom rom instead because I'm fed up with stock bugs. I'm looking forward to install pixys os, but I have a question. Are there any additional steps to install a custom rom? I don't want my phone to be bricked and lose my IMEI.
I have flashed LOS 16 without problems after Pie update.
You can flash the custom ROM without any big issues. Not sure about VoLTE though, if it is something you are concerned about.
Make a low level backup so you can recover in case something goes wrong

I was using Xtended Custom ROM (Oreo) with a rooted device and then i was just trying to unroot the phone and flashing Stock ROM but it didnt worked so i rolled back to Custom ROM and then my fingerprint sensors are not getting detected in any Oreo ROM.. please help!
If you really want to stay on an Oreo custom rom, you have to downgrade to stock nougat first. Easiest way to do that is use the latest nougat twrp flashable stock rom
https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5-plus/development/twrp-flashable-stock-builds-t3813351
Other option is to just go to a pie custom rom.
Edit - just remembered the is another thing you can flash that will just get back the fingerprint, but if you use NFC that won't be fixed. Maybe someone else has the link.
I got my fingerprint sensor back but lost VolTe now!

I got my fingerprint sensor back by flashing "potter-twrp-flashable-NPNS25.137-92-14-a" image but lost Volte support! I am currently using PixelExperience Custom ROM! Oreo based! I am gonna try shifting to a new custom ROM to see if i can get Volte working! If any suggestions please let me know!
If u had nougat and the u flashed PE 9.0 then volte will have issues. PE moved to oreo base long time back. Its better u flash stock oreo first and then move to any Pie Rom. There are some guides around to get volte back might wanna look around. Did you not make a backup of the stock image?

Did you boot into stock nougat before flashing the custom Oreo rom? If not, it is probably necessary. (When you had -a at the end of that filename, I assume you mean aroma? If so, then that one applies a fix to your persist which is needed going back to stock nougat, so that's all good.)
If you did, then it may just be a case of needing to go onto stock Oreo then a pie custom rom. Some things about the stock nougat just don't work properly after being on Oreo...

Ok, so you flashed some persist file? Was it my persist fix zip, or someone else's persist backup, in which case you're kinda screwed.

Try clearing cache within twrp. You shouldn't take any OTAs from the twrp flashable. If it was the OTA for Oreo, then might be easier to do a wipe, as I can't remember where the OTA gets saved.
I'm assuming that your device is trying to go to recovery all the time as it knows the OTA is there to be installed.
Worst case, total clean flash and install again.

Two basic rules:
- Make a backup. Every time before you flash anything. Every time.
- You only can apply and install OTA updates when on a signed and unmodified fastboot firmware.
Twrp flashable ROMs have a lot of advantages but they are not unmodified.
Agree with @NZedPred: Make a full wipe and install
a) a fastboot firmware if you need to take OTA updates, these are found here:
https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/potter/official/RETAIL/
b) a twrp flashable ROM if you won't take OTA updates, these are found here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5...flashable-stock-builds-coming-t3830482/page68
I have this same problem. I'm currently on stock Oreo and I'm not getting fingerprint option since I flashed PE 9.0. someone help.
