Hi again. To whomever may find this interesting, I just wanted to report my experience with my Redmi Note 7 running this rom.
First the issues:
I fixed the dark status bar with the terminal command suggested above, but it isnt a fix, it's more like a patch. As they very well said, I cant enter the dark mode menu in settings wtihout undoing the fix, so a more permanent fix would be appreciated.
Then even formatting data while installing the rom did not fix the data encryption. It seems that as soon as I install the new rom, internal storage gets encrypted again. I am installing everything through the sd card though, so no biggie.
Now the GREAT results:
Everything is working as it should. It is smooth as heck, wifi gps and mobile signal working well. havent tested bluetooth as I dont really use it.
Now the greatest result is SOT. I'm getting a 11.5hs SOT. That's HUGE.
Aside from installing the rom, I did the following:
-Debloated it with Xiaomi fastboot tools. Practically uninstalled EVERYTHING I didnt use.
-Searched for some wakelocks with better battery stats. I did install magisk, as root was super useful for this maximizing. Gmail and chrome were my main culprits, and fixed them by normally setting them to "battery saver" on the battery menu.
-then installed Ex kernel manager. I tweaked the big core settings so that they remain as low as possible. Lowered the cpu boost to the minimum. And changed the little cores to conservative. Also double the internal readahaed value, and also changed the GPU governor to simple_ondemand, but I dont know if that matters.
Everything is working flawlessly now, and I am very grateful for all your work. Thanks again
