Questions and Issues

Hello !
I have some question, hope that you can help me.
1. I want to install the Xposed module but i want to knw if it's stable on the Mi Mix ROM.
I'm asking that because i came from a Xperia Z Ultra and the Xposed module wasn't that stable...
2. I want to change of ROM, how can i perform a clean install and kepp my actual apps, is there a way ?
ANNEXE : I encounter some issue on my Xiaomi eu ROM, hope you can help me to find something
Here is my problem :
1 - The first one is my fingerprint sensors works 1/2 on the lockscreen, it's like that since the stable update of the 14 jun 2017. You need to know that the fingerprint sensor works well for unlocking app and else..
2 - The research function doesn't work at all, I have an error (cf : video). whatever the choices that i make the problem will still the same...
Can you please help me ??
Best Regards,
LordBli

Sorry, I wish I could help. I to want to root my device so that I can flash custom roms too, but I've all but given up on that. I don't know why you mean though, when it comes to your second question -
"The research function doesn't work at all, I have an error (cf : video). whatever the choices that i make the problem will still the same..."

Xposed works great on MIUI 8 (8.5) (Android 6)
If u want keep MIUI or change ROM to pure android :
Universal method >
1 - Titanium backup 'but need some permissions for MIUI to works and need confirm manually for each apps who will be restored (MIUI and AOSP/LOS)
MIUI specific >
2 - MIUI integrate a similar function in backup/restore item in settings under factory reset (work like a charm too and no action is required > MIUI only)
Both store backuped elements in internal storage then u can easily clone it on ur desktop !!!

First of all you have to unlock your bootloader then flash your recovery, here is a link that might help you : http://en.miui.com/thread-424221-1-1.html

Settings » Installed apps » All(tab) » Search » App permissions; give these permissions(if did not). Besides; some themes have ability to disable the 'Search' feature on notification panel. Just saying.

Without additional information, it's quite difficult to assist.
Firstly, you came from the Z Ultra. I too purchased the Mi Mix to replace my Z Ultra, with its stock firmware being stuck on MM and the aftermarket support not being brilliant the Mix was a suitable choice. However I had no issue with Xposed on my Z Ultra, perhaps your choice of Xposed modules was the problem???
If you haven't unlocked your bootloader, then you need to do that first. Bear in mind, once unlocked you will lose all android pay functionality.
Which Mix do you have...? Mine is the 6GB/256GB variant, and certain system modifications only work on the specific versions.
Have you flashed TWRP, if so which version?
In answer to your first problem - remove all fingerprints and re-add them. On some of the stock miui.com firmware releases, it doesn't migrate fingerprint information correctly.
In answer to your second problem - you *should* try running the current weekly release from xiaomi.eu:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/xi.../files/xiaomi.eu/MIUI-WEEKLY-RELEASES/7.7.20/
If you are running *stock* firmware, you *will* need to factory reset.
-----
With regards to your "research" problem, I assume you mean the global search from the phone (If this is not the case then let us know what you mean).
Again, I've not experienced issues searching the phone since changing to the xiaomi.eu (weekly) global firmware which is based on Android 7.0 however Xposed support is minimal.
If you want to change firmware, unless you change to the same build structure then you won't be able to keep your current data.
e.g. stock miui.com firmware to xiaomi.eu firmware.
In this situation, root and titanium backup is your friend.

Thanks for your answer, it is really helpful !

I don't run Xposed on my Mix (Haven't found a real reason to...), I have it running on my Redmi Pro using dirty hacks from a thread on miui.com that really hurts my eyes... http://en.miui.com/thread-78894-1-1.html

The only change I would personally use on a mi-globe firmware would be the three-way reboot menu, however that can be substituted with an application.
IMHO, I don't see any real reason to use "their" firmware as all they're doing is tweaking an already good release by an established team of developers

Ok so everything is great except for the fingerprint sensor, it doesn't work properly. I tried to delete all the fingerprint and then put them back but it still works 1/2 times...

Same for me but I wanted to test those tweak to see what it looks like

Any ideas for the fingerprint issue ?

Wallpaper randomly zooms in...

and I have to re select my wallpaper. Anyone else see this?

I experienced this issue back in MIUI8 when setting wallpaper via Nova Launcher. If I set it via Settings, it worked as expected. Eventually it stopped happening, I don't know if it has to do with Nova updates or with Xiaomi OTA updates. All I know is that it stopped happening around the time I got the MIUI9 update.

Thanks for the feedback. I have been setting mine in settings all along and its' done this consistently from day 1, both on MIUI 8 and 9. I do use Nova...google suggests that its' more a problem with Nova users than not but i'm not willing to give up Nova

I still use Nova as well, no issues now. Just tested setting the wallpaper via Nova again and it doesn't zoom in like before. Are you using the Stable or Dev ROM? Now that I think of it, maybe it was fixed when I changed from Stable to Dev (which happened to coincide with the change from MIUI8 to MIUI9).

I'm on stable. I've been trying to avoid rooting/flashing and just trying to enjoy the phone out of the box(aside from the DPI drop). Not sure this alone is annoying me enough to root n' rom but if DEV fixed my fitbit notification issue as well I would likely do it in a flash

There is no need to root to install the dev rom, all you have to do is download it from Xiaomi's website and install it with the updater app. You will lose all your data though.

Of course, you get them weekly. That's what the Dev Rom is for, you always get updates first.

I've downloaded it and when I try to install via installer it says it's not allowed to upgrade to an unofficial Rom version and stops.

Did you download from MIUI's website? (here)
You have to chose either Global or China Rom according to your version. What does it say in Android Version on the About Phone section?

Yes I downloaded from there but didn't see a choice between global and China.
My android version is 7.1.1 nmf26f
When I click k the download link it just starts but it is the global Rom.

I meant to say MIUI version, not Android version, sorry.
The page opens on default on the global section, you can change it on the right of the header with the device name. If that's the one that doesn't work, you probably have the Chinese Stable version and in that case you must flash the China Dev ROM

I got it. I had cancelled just into installing and then when I started from scratch again it worked. Up and running on Dec now.
So far so good with the wallpaper zoom. Fingers crossed. The fitbit notifications still turn off every reboot. Boo
Now I'm battling the stupid install over. USB permissions so I can drop the dpi settings. Pita

UPdate: Wallpaper zoom issue still exists on Dev rom

Wallpaper zoom in issue still present in MIUI 9.0.3.0 Global Stable on my Mi Max 2.

I tried setting the wallpaper actually in Nova and for the last 2 hours it hasn't done the zoom thing. I'll update later when I'm convinced one way or the other this did it.

Android 9.0 - Global Beta

Looks like we have Pie now, no one talking about that it seems. But latest beta came with Android 9.0, I believe. With Dark Mode in Display settings, pretty good.

Also noticed the update. However, I'm quite hesitant at first due to earlier info's that states recruitment is suspended for pie update. How's the update btw? Is there any bugs that might affect a normal day to day usage? Planning to install this rom. Tnx in advance!

I tested it, it made my phone run slower and kill background apps. I see no real benefit in updating. The only new feature i noticed is the dark mode.

You extract the folder inside the .tgz file then use mi flash tool to flash it.
It didn't have any update, and it doesn't have any new function except for the dark mode.
I installed stock rom rom again because the phone was running slow and killing background apps too frequently.

Need tester
To test the beta rom, xiomi needs beta tester for redmi 6a. Search Google with "redmi 6a pie beta update". I can't paste the link here for restrictions

i wanted to try it and eventually rollback to Oreo : but i can't !
So be careful, cause there are some bugs that make it difficult to use as a daily driver.
For example, brightness is very very low and it's hard to see anything under the sun, hotspot security is useless (makes you hotspot opened)...
I try to flash many other Oreo global official roms without success using mi flash tool. Though it says ok, it's always the same rom that boot (android 9).
Tried to flash twrp , but every version i installed boots on an snowy strange screen (like old tv without canal).
So be careful if it's the only phone you have.

Maybe try using ADB directly instead of MiFlash? Download the command line tools ZIP from here, extract it in the same folder with all the .bat files and execute flash_all.bat while phone is in flashboot.

Question Owners of the Chinese version who have upgraded to the European.

Please, everyone who could upgrade your Chinese Mi 11 Ultra to global or European firmware, please describe the sequence of actions:
1) what version of phone you flashed - 8/12/256 or 12/512
2) what soft did you use to unlock bootloader
3) what version of new firmware you choosed - Global or EEA (European)
4) what mode of ref lashing did you use - "three dots" via upgrade menu (recovery) or fastboot
I think this thread will be beer useful for many of us
Thank you

there is none in the whole 52 pages topic on xiaomu.eu? Im also curious about your questions. I wanted to flash my phone in next two days after unlock bootloader.

I done it today, didnt check my version though before flashing. I updated with the OTA yesterday and flashed the latest stable 12.5. There is safetynet issue with that at the moment due to Xiaomi not certifying it but i fixed it with magisk.
Rom is much better

V12.5.2.0.RKACNXM is chinese ROM, not EU or global ROM but it's good think to know than even on CN, it's possible to have multi languages and Google apps support integrated.

Isn't safety net broken so Google pay and banking apps? Won't be fixed until Xiaomi does something right??
If true I'd rather stay on China ROM until that if resolved. I have no issues at all with my China ROM.

Good thread ! We need it for now.
So first version of global rom is not safe !
I was reading all that 54 pages and I noticed that you have to update your phone software via phone settings. After that it should be compatible with xiaomi Eu rom (flastboot flashing). Also don’t use that miflash...do it
Via standard command prompt method.
(The XiomiEU Rom is based on a Chinese rom but it have such a big change log is crazy ! Is polished so well that is better than global)
thats what I understood from all that pages....but again I would wait a little bit....

Hi Axel, got your pm there too. (MobileMadeSimple) I didn't do anything special. Made sure was on latest update. Unlocked bootloader. Skipped through setup etc. Went to fastboot, ran the bat as administrator.

can you also post an instruction which you used? on xioamu.eu people write different versions and I don't know if I can stick to the instructions from the first post

General Global 12.5.8 update

Hi Everyone,
Just the heads up, RKAMIXM 12.5.8 is available now. Woke up 2 hours ago with an available update by OTA.
Photos attached.

I wonder, will this version auto-upgrade to MIUI13 later this month?
Also - I assume it's storage-problems-free, like the ones plaguing the Android12 releases?
I'm honestly grinding my teeth over the A12 issues and finding workarounds, and I'll revert in a hearbeat if I knew that I won't have to start from scratch in a couple of weeks from now.

This one is stable global version, I don't think we will have A12 on global before Feb or march

If I'm not mistaken, a December 28th release date was confirmed already, for the Global MIUI13 A12-based ROM.

I haven't seen that anywhere, and I doubt it. Doesn't mean I would LOVE THIS to be true

You're right, I assumed Global, though I do remember seeing the Global being referred to. Fingers crossed as well!

Did anyone try this? I wasn't expecting an update before MIUI 13 release

I am on it now 24hours.
It is good, want the official file? I can redownload package and upload it

Thank, no I'm not in a rush. Thank you anyway. Have you seen some improvement?

Honestly, not much to be considered, the following changes noticed:
- Security patch 1st of Nov.
- Battery seems a bit better (not so sure but I ended up with slightly more juice than usual, maybe just first day with no cash, will see how I go today).
- Some bubbles are round now, which is more comfortable than square ones. but this morning my messages are square (i'll have to do a bit more research on this).
- some sound distortion (usually 1-3 seconds) when I change app (mobile legends with any other app and return to mobile legends) has gone.
- kind of smoother (or just my imagination ).
- there was a bug with sometimes unlocking device, now its gone. it is hard to describe as it actually affected nothing. but its gone now.
nothing more as far as I can see.

What version were you using?
And yeah, please do reupload, I think I'll switch. The A12 bugs are unbearable and I'm pretty confident that your version will update to MIUI13 when time comes.

Mine is just an OTA and not a fastboot version, so you have to go to 12.5.7 first then update.

V12.5.7.0.RKAMIXM - global ROM?
Hit me up with the OTA file when you have the time, here or via PM. I'll switch over.

No worries, I'll do it tonight or tomorrow, unless you get it OTA by then. I don't know why but I get updates 3-5 days than everyone else

I'm the exact opposite -
I jumped the shark with the A12 update because I get my OTAs aeons after everybody else.
Was the version I noted the one you had before getting the OTA? Would be pointless to flash the wrong ROM

12.5.7, just get it installed and I'll upload 12.5.8

Installed, and on first boot, the device auto-updated to 12.5.8.0 too
How do I download the package, in favor of others who want it?

It's released, don't worry about it.
Just for info, once package downloaded and while installing before restart, go to files - downloads - and you'll find a new folder called downloaded_roms and you'll find update package there. Copy it anywhere else out of this folder and you are good to go.
