One UI for Redmi 4x - Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers

Hey guys you probably know how one UI 2.0 of Samsung looks like, especially the quick settings panel. I have lineage 16.0 with magisk running fine on my phone. The clock in the quick settings panel is very small so I wanted to like get a bigger clock or like having clock battery and other details into the quick settings panel and since that part of one UI has most of the things I actually want I am referring to that ..is there any module or things that I can use to get that one UI or similar into my phone..?
Thanks in advance :good:

Not sure if there is any module available but you may want to try Descendant OS it mimics like One UI.

Hi
I found one day a port of One UI rom for Santoni, but IRL wasn't working.
look "Redmi 4X - Samsung Experience 9.5, Oreo 8.1" with Google to look at this. Web site is xiaomiui dot net

[Discussion] Stock Android and Next Version of Android

So, a few days ago Apple announced iOS 8 and previewed some of it features. This made me look back into Android, specifically Stock Android. And with Google I/O just around the corner, here are some things that I wish Google will improve on.
The Dark, Old, and Gloomy Holo UI
When it first came out, Holo UI was the thing. Everyone who was still on Gingerbread wanted it, they installed launchers and even modded framework and stuff. Skip forward 3 years, Holo UI is still here with a little change on the icon colours. Some may love it, but it's definitely getting boring. There are rumours that the next version will be 5.0 instead of 4.5. I hope that with the 1.0 jump, there will be a major UI overhaul.
The Not So Helpful Quick Tiles
Quick Tiles, when you look at it it really seems to help make things quicker. "Oh look, the WiFi icon. If I press this, it's gonna toggle the WiFi, right?" NOPE, clicking it will bring you to the Settings section while long pressing it will toggle it instead. I don't know how long it's been like this but I've only tasted stock since 4.2.2 and it's still like this on KitKat so... Someone in the UX Department needs to be scolded.
Not only it's rather misguiding, the toggles itself doesn't offer that much. There are no tiles for NFC, Sync, Auto Rotation and there's no way to add them either. Custom ROMs and manufacturers' skins however offer all these for years and even after a few 0.1 updates, Google doesn't seem to touch this. Which makes me wonder if most people prefer it Google's way. I definitely don't.
KitKat Transparency Not Being Used
When KitKat was announced, the transparent status bar and navigation bar really wowed me. I was hoping the colours would match accordingly to which app is opened. But apparently, apps need to be updated and coded to take advantage of this. Which is fine, there are a few apps that does this but what baffles me is Google isn't one of them. Other than Google Now Launcher, everything pretty much stayed the same. How can others be motivated to do this when even Google isn't doing it.
It Lacks Appeal to the Public Eyes
Have you seen what other skinned Android can do without installing other apps? Multi-Window, Dual Capture Camera, Slow Motion Video Capture, Floating Apps, Power Saving Mode, Video Calling, and many more. What can Stock Android do? Well, normal stuff every Android smartphone can do except those above I guess. Stock Android are designed for developers and tech enthusiasts so it should be normal to stay as de-bloated as possible but don't you want some of those goodies that other skins offer?
Your Thoughts?
Yes, there are apps that can do the stuff above and Xposed Framework can help, but we're talking about pure stock Android without roots and many other stuff. Which makes me wonder, being a Nexus user, how many of you guys stay pure stock?
With competition heating up such as iOS's possible split Window Mode and Windows 8.1's Cortana, not to mention other emerging OS such as Tizen, Ubuntu Touch, Sailfish and Firefox OS; Android need to step up it's game on the next version. What do you think will make Stock Android better?

Custom ROMS are way ahead of this.. Stock, naaaa.. Custom roms you get features satablility and sort of completeness. It defeats stock by a long margin.

Yeah, tried stock for a week, couldn't stand it :silly: With all those bugs, it makes you wonder if people at Google actually uses stock Android or never tried custom ROMs, lol.

Note 9 one ui icon frame missing...

Hello...
I have recently updated my device to android pie which gave me one ui from samsung also... i dont like the rounded frames of icons and prefer icons as developers provide.... anyhow i cant find a way to disable icon frames on my phone... i have tried all the menus in settings and searched everywhere... before one ui you can find the setting in display setting of your device but i cant find it anywhere now...
Is it related to android pie not supporting such thing or have samsung removed the feature ?
Please let me know

You can't remove icon frames in One UI. You can always download an icon set in the Samsung theme store.

ROM that is like Stock Android or better ROM

Hi,
Well I like the Official Miui rom but some functions I loved got removed by xiaomi so I finally want to break out.
I want to actually use the Notification Logs that came with Android 11 (don't know why xiaomi removed it) and I miss the option to set the priority of notifications. I used this one a lot because I had some notifications I wanted to see when I pull down the bar, but I don't need to see the icon all the time.
Also more customization would be nice...
So I'm asking you here, wich ROM comes the closest to a stock android experience or wich ROM is the 'best' one.
Thank you and have a nice day!

Without hesitation:
https://xiaomi.eu/community/
or
https://one.revtechs.me/en/index
there's Pixel Experience which are the same as Pixel phones, HentaiOS which are heavily tuned for great user experience, or Evox if you want more customization than barebone. LineageOS are similar to AOSP. There's so many ROMs to try, really.

Option to add shortcuts on the first/main/home screen and not on the second one to the right?

Hi guys,
I have a freshly rooted Xiaomi Redmi 4x with Havoc OS 4.16 installed, which is based on android 11 and Pixel 5.
Thus, this is a question about Pixel 5's UI even if the phone is not a pixel 5 ( it does appear as one in Google Play Store).
I noticed when I install an app, the automatically generated home screen shortcut is created not on the home screen but on the next one to the right. The more I think of it, the more I realize this might be in fact a good design idea, because the user might want to keep the main home screen clean and under his/her control. However, for the sake of it, is there a setting to tell the UI to create new shortcuts on the main screen instead? I looked in the settings but could not find it.
I do know I can move them, no issue in that.
Edit. This might be the wrong forum though, 'cos I just read Havoc OS uses Material Design 2 UI.
"Havoc-OS 4.x is based on AOSP, inspired by Google Pixel. Has a refined Material Design 2 UI crafted by @SKULSHADY".
I don't suppose Google Pixel 5 uses this UI.
If that's the case, I kindly ask a mod to DELETE this. Thanks!
