Question - Blackshark 2 stock android on Mi 9 ? - Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers

Hi all,
As the name says - Xiaomi BlackShark 2 is SD855 device which has been recently released. It sports stock android pie in order to help further improve performance of the device.
Has anyone tried to flash its rom to Mi 9?
Please just thoughts and/or experiences - no need to debate if Mi 9 needs this or not.
I would love to try myself but I still dont have the device.
Thanks!

Furthermore to this - checked the Black Shark 2 section at XDA. All screenshots indicate AOSP based rom, and specifically its Global version does not contain any junk inside...

This is very interesting and theoretically it should be quite viable since same SOC and probably same fingerprint sensor. But not same camera so maybe camera might have issues.
But otherwise seems like a nice idea

[SOLVED] NO NFC on Redmi K20 PRO

Hello XDA Developers,
Any help needed, pleeaase.!
Probably I'm doing something wrong, or there is serious problem with my phone - no NFC. Not sure if it is ROM related or related to the phone itself.
Any help, troubleshooting, workarounds, mods will be really appreciated.
FYI: I Did not change the ROM, was the original with the phone, see details bellow:
Phone Tester says following:
No NFC support
This is what Phone Tester says about the ROM:
Model: Redmi K20 PRO
Device: raphaelin
OS Release: 9 - Pie
OS Build: PKQ1.181121.001
Firmware: V10.3.1.0.PFKINXM
Bought on AlieExpress, Seller: mi global store
(don't mix up with another seller XIAOMI mi store)
Update:
At the end and thanks to XDA Developerz I changed the ROM with TWRP and xiaomi.eu version. It fixed the issue. Now I have good ROM with TWRP recovery!
I'm not sure what that company did but here's what shows up for me.

Also if you go to Phone Settings -> About the phone I have this:
Model number Redmi K20 Pro
Model Name M1903F11A
Kernel version: 4.14.83-perf-gf578f07

raphaelin is the device name of the Indian version of the K20 Pro. This hasn't been released yet, so there shouldn't be any official ROM's with that device name. This suggests that it isn't an official ROM. Did you buy it with a pre-installed global ROM?

Yes, I did. However what I found from 954wrecker is that he is is using Firmware V10.3.11.0 mine is 10.3.1.0
not sure if this where the problem is. Is there any hardware bus scanner available as an apk?
I'm bit new to xda-developers, s but with experience as Linux sysadmin as well as some development.

I know nothing about hardware bus scanners, however it would be recommended to install another ROM from a legitimate source. Your phone will most likely be unlocked already. The xiaomi.eu developer ROM 9.6.27 has had a few people say that it's stable. I'm still waiting to be able to unlock the bootloader, so haven't tried it myself yet.
Thanks guys, you almost convince me that it is a ROM issue. My phone is unlocked, which is obviously very good news.
Now, the question where to get the FULL ROM, and not the updates. I'm on V10.3.1.0, some people have 10.3.11.0 here.

This thread lists the official and xiaomi.eu ROMs
https://forum.xda-developers.com/k20-pro/how-to/redmi-k20-pro-firmware-10-3-8-0-9-6-13-t3939647
I'm guessing you want a global ROM, so it's the xiaomi.eu ROMs, these are listed under EU. Looking on the forums there seems to be an audio issue with the latest stable release.
Please flash xiaomi.eu firmware k20 pro supports NFC and it works well.
Sent from my Redmi K20 Pro using Tapatalk
Mine support it , yours too , just factory reset it
Thanks to everyone. At the end I flashed xiaomi.eu 10.3.12 and it fixed the issue.
I have the same issue.
Received my k20 pro yesterday and spent hours and hours to configure it properly (tons of apps and settings)
But no NFC...
Rom MIUI GLOBAL 10.3.1. 1
is there a way to update firmware without erasing everything??
Thank you

Good question! Not sure, better to ask not in this thread, but in separate thread will be much faster response. Are you planning to install TWRP? Because if you plan to do so, ask how you can try to do this with TWRP.
I can confirm that xiaomi.eu 10.3.12 fixed my issue with NFC and also I can tell that 10.3.9 chinese rom does not have issue with NFC either (why Chinese ROM you may ask? - because it is full image ROM, and initially I made mistake with TWRP did not decrypt the filesystem, I did not know the password at the that time which was my PIN, so I flashed it twice) Avoiding my mistake you can go directly to xiaomi.eu 10.3.12 with TWRP.
I have found that Redmi k20 pro has hardware related touch problems. Please check and confirm that.

Yes touch issues only activates when you use more than two fingers at a time.
Eg - while playing games or when playing pubg

I'm interested also in Pixel Experience, we can try the GSI but it haven't received any updates since the last month. And for gcam, you can try any Mi 9T version, the camera modules are exactly the same

"Mi Services" out of box installed? Do i really have plain Android One?

Hi Guys,
just got my new A2 and i am a bit confused. It has a Mi Services App running for opt in and some other Mi App installed which i cannot uninstall. Do i have the right Android Version? I did an OTA update but that hasn't changed the fact
If i don't want those apps, which Android 9 ROM can you recommend?
Thanks in advance!

Mi services are an opt in component. They are used by mi to collect some user experience info so as to improve upon the product.
The other mi app is the mi community app which is like any other forum found in companies like one plus etc. That too can be uninstalled... Other then that, this is pure android.
Trust me, stay on stock as long as you are getting updates.... there's no reason to switch to custom roms so soon

I haven't touched the world of custom rom for mi a2.
That's why, i can't give you any advice regarding them.

I'm currently running HAVOC-OS-v3.0 TEN on my Xiaomi MI A2 and really like it. I'd definitely recommend if you're looking to flash a custom ROM.

what about bugs? Everyone is saying differnet things
I heard android 9 havoc has almost no bugs, thats why i was thinking 9
you can disable those apps with adb commands keeping the stock rom (cant remember exactly how but it's definetly possible)
the apps are providing the feedback function (so you can report bugs if you find any) and support for the camera app - which is the miui camera instead of the stock android. (you can always install another camera app and use that instead)

Any custom rom ?

I don't think there will be any support because of your Mediatek processor
Or not

No "Stock Android 10" for Redmi 9 ?
Hi!
I was looking around to find a ROM to install on my Redmi 9. As stock as possible.
From what I red in this thread, it seems that it's currently impossible ?
Am I right ?

Don't expect ROMs anytime soon without source code. Your best bet is a GSI but that's another story for MTK devices and Android 10 complicating matters further with dynamic partitions since the device was launched with Q. I'm interested in seeing someone successful boot a GSI on this device.

Question What's the best version of stock MIUI in terms of battery life and stability

Hello guys
I would like to know just in case I went back to MIUI which version I should flash , I was happy with 13.0.10 overall, but there were two annoying problems the 10 seconds warning every time an app need accessibility permission and the MIUI battery optimization which interrupted the apps and cannot be disabled in version 13
right now I am thinking to back to either MIUI 12.5.1.0 or 12.0.x what you guys suggest ? also if there is any kernel that can improve stock MIUI please let me know
Thanks in advance

For me, latest 13.0.16 EEA has been the best so far. But people have been saying latest Indonesian version is the best for them. Try it out, also for custom kernels, I don't recommend changing as that would ruin deep sleep and fast charging.

I think any custom should be compatible with yours. Most incompatibility comes from 64mp one. Maybe some devs forgot to disable/remove NFC functionality for sweetin, in that case just don't touch that module.
Xiaomi.EU should be compatible as well
