AnonD-908380, 02 Mar 2020WhatsApp notifications don't make a sound sometimes when I ... moreFor anyone facing this issue, I have done some tests and came to the following conclusion:

You have to enable "light up screen for notifications" and "autostart". MIUI Battery saver doesn't cause this issue and can stay on the default setting.

        WhatsApp notifications don't make a sound sometimes when I lock my phone. Does anyone have the same issue and is this a specific MIUI problem or WhatsApp problem?

        I'm pretty sure enabling "wake display for notifications" will solve it but not sure.

              Wi-Fi connectivity becoming a serious problem...difficulty signing in to FB wifi, also declining speeds on public wifi. It helps sometimes when I wipe cache or reboot phone, but these are unacceptable long-term solutions...

              Anyobe else have these problems? Suggested solutions? I am on global carrier in Brazil...Note 8 64/4 tks

                    Derpfest has buggy brightness (too dark on lowest). The latest build doesn't have Gapps and therefore lacks the security updates through playstore feature, which is the only use for Android 10 to be honest.

                    Syberia Project lacks Playstore security updates.

                    Havoc OS Unofficial had the same issue with Playstore security updates I think.

                    Evolution X drains the battery. You get like 3000mAh performance...

                    And every one of them has a crappy camera because Xiaomi is still on Android 9 officially...

                          I have tried every Android 10 ROM for this and went back to MIUI 11 with Android 9. I'm surprised that MIUI is actually better than all the custom ROM's...Now we have to wait for Android 10 by Xiaomi themselves.

                                      Considering to buy Redmi 8 because
                                      - good memory 64/8gb
                                      - good battery 5000mah
                                      - fast charging
                                      - 13mp f/1.8 camera
                                      - pie os
                                      It will serve me well as i am not a gamer.

                                      Today i compared it with redmi note 8 which is 8000 rupees expensive. What i will gain is lower battery 4000mah but better camera 48mp and better chipset.

                                      Now i am confused between these two which one to go for. If i get better reliablity by paying 8000 rupees i will go for note otherwise redmi 8 is good for me.

                                      What do you suggest?
