The installation instructions vary by device, but generally, you need a recent version of stock ROM firmware the stock firmware and Fastboot installed on your computer. Those running a previous alpha/beta build can just sideload the new build in recovery. New users, however, will have to perform a clean flash by wiping user data. 2018 is, unfortunately, turning out to be the year when once developer friendly smartphone manufacturers decided to lock users out of their own devices.
The ROM boasts a clean and minimal UI, along with feature improvements. You can expect better notch handling, a new and improved volume control system, and yes, over-the-air updates of course. The ROM is completely open source, so if you have the skill for it, you can fork the project and make your own custom ROM out of it. The Potato Open Sauce Project is brought to you by a team of Indian developers who have adopted the quintessential potato as their choice of name. Even the different versions of the ROM are titled ‘baked potato’, ‘dumaloo’ etc. The added functionalities of Havoc-OS include tons of mods for the Status bar, buttons, lights, gestures, and other various configurations. While at times, it lacks stability, I can surely say that it has the maximum customizability features.

Until the Xiaomi POCO F1, MIUI-powered Xiaomi phones did not come with an app drawer. The MIUI launcher has always been polarizing because of its iOS-like functioning of just having a home screen and skipping the app drawer. This meant that all app icons were shown on the home screen, and many users missed the flexibility of the app drawer, where apps could be arranged alphabetically. Of course, this problem could easily be solved by downloading a third-party launcher, and the likes of Nova Launcher, Lawnchair, and Rootless Pixel Launcher all come with app drawers.
Step 19 – Tap the “Install Zip” then locate the “DisableForceEncryption_Treble.zip” file you have it earlier. If you accidentally format or factory reset your Android device with internal memory only (no external SD card), then it is pretty tricky to restore the default settings. Rootmygalaxy.net will not be held responsible for any kind of damage occurred to your device while following this tutorial. However, everyone has its own choice and not everyone wants custom skin like MIUI on their Android devices. So, if in case, you’re one of the Poco M2 users and want to flash the stock ROM from a custom ROM due to some bugs or stability issues, then you can do it easily by following the guide below. Whereas, sometimes users can’t properly flash the third-party firmware due to multiple processes, and more.
For precaution, if you happen to encounter any bugs, you can directly connect with the developer himself. POCO F1 is powered by a processor of Snapdragon 845 along with RAM of 6/8 GB. It features a 6.18” display and owns a dual-camera setup of 12 and 5 MP.
