OrangeFox 14.1 for Xiaomi Poco F6 (peridot)

📦Build Variants

crypto (TG Mirror)

- Safest and simplest option for most users

- Keeps /data encrypted (default Android behavior)

- Must format /data when flashing a different ROM

auto-dfe (TG Mirror)

- Automatically disables forced encryption upon detecting ROM payload

- Can switch ROMs with a /data wipe only (no need format)

- Internal Storage remains intact

- Please read support group notes for more information: #switch-to-dfe #what-is-dfe

⚖️Main differences to prior channel builds

- Decryption working on AOSP and HyperOS (read here)

- Unneccessary anti-rollback protection removed
Recovery security patch date was left too high (2127) so would unneccesarily trigger anti-rollback protection when installing current dated ROMs of 202X, which would force format /data

- auto-dfe variant built for non-encrypted users (mentioned above)

- See device tree for all other changes
