Google Play for Mi5 China 8.2 - Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers

I installed China Stable 8.2 but no GAPPS, how to install them ?

You need to install Google play services, play store, service framework, account manager, contact sync, calendar sync apks manually.

You won't get them worked on CN Stable or Dev rom.
No Google services will work.
You can install Xiaomi.eu rom which is based on CN Stable and CN Dev(weekly) but it supports Gapps.

If I unlock It I plan to install Global Stable ROM, I think it's the best choise, what do you think ?

I think Xiaomi.eu ROM is the best choice.

I wonder, why do you think so?

[Cuz Eu rom has much more features, better RAM management and battery performance.
Again they enabled Camera api 2. Though it's not a full control over the camera but you know, something is better than nothing. Specially with Open camera and ProShot we can capture RAW image.
Afterall it's a stock Rom but with some good modification.
GIVE IT A TRY.

It works for me on 8.0.12 china stable. Give them all permissions in security. I don't know on latest 8.2.2 though. Btw they provide an installer on mi app store, give it a try.

Using Google Installer you can install Google Services and Play store but that doesn't work well.

Can you give me a tutorial how to install it ?
Also is there Eu rom for Redmi 4 ?

Yes There's eu rom for redmi 4.
Tutorial is similar to flash a custom rom.
just one thing you need to remember that you can't wipe system before installing eu rom.
So.
Unlock your device
install TWRP
Boot into TWRP
Wipe your Internal Storage & Data or you can just do a factory reset from Wipe menu. ( It's a must for newer Xiaomi device as it's encrypted by Xiaomi.)
After wiping Internal Storage & Data reboot system.
Your phone will be started as new now.
Go through the setup wizard to finish boot.
Now download eu rom for your device.
After downloading boot into TWRP.
Make a Backup of your current ROM ( Optional but recommend.)
Wipe Data, Cache but DON'T WIPE SYSTEM.
Install Eu rom.
After Installing don't wipe cache.
Reboot system.
Done.

One thing you need to remember, If you're on China rom and you don't have Google apps on your rom, you won't get Google apps after flashing eu rom.
So for unlocking your device flash Global Dev rom first and unlock. ( Without dev rom you can't unlock your device.)
As Global Dev rom has full package of Gapps so there's nothing to worry about.
After flashing Eu rom you'll get the Gapps.

I think you misunderstand something. It doesn't matter which rom you use china, global or custom ones, xiaomi.eu will always have google services. They are built-in in xiaomi.eu. Btw, you won't get incremental ota in xiaomi.eu. You need to download full rom to upgrade.

Actually I tried.
I flash eu rom over my Global rom. After rebooting with eu rom all the gapps package was there. Then again I flash eu rom over RR. On RR I didn't flash Gapps. So after flashing eu rom I didn't find any gapps there. Then again I flash back RR, Install Gapps. Then again flash eu rom over it. This time I got the Gapps. As I flash Pico Gapps on RR so I only got Play Store on eu rom.
Remember, xiaomi.eu ask you not to wipe system. That's the reason. It's like an OTA update.
If you install eu rom like an ordinary ROM it will be in bootloop.
I might be wrong but literally I'm not

Would suggest the global stable ROM at this point. It's got great RAM management and is running really smooth and at times more stable wrt to LOS and AOSP ROMs. Plus even the battery life has been quite decent too

No sir!
Battery drain is a little bit faster in the Global Stable, thats why I suggest eu ROM, its almost debloatedand optimized at some point..

i know. i flashed the xiaomi.eu miui 8 rom aftereards and it's fine.
but i would prefer the chinese developer rom. the original developer rom allows to buy paid themes, while the xiaomi.eu rom only provides free themes in the theme store.
Impressions from the new Rom? Battery life?

If you have unlocked your bootloader, use directly MI flash in fastboot mode with fastboot rom.
I have flashed 5.11.26 via fastboot like on a guide on en.miui and it worked but the bootloader won't get unlocked. Can I flash Miui 8 and don't care about boot loader cause I don't want to put custom ROM or will I need to do unlocking even to flash Miui 8?

Nope, I didn't try. Before I've unlocked my bootloader via the form on miui.com, I couldn't get the official ROM to boot, as soon as I flashed gapps + supersu. So I flashed the xiaomi.eu ROM which contains all gapps in the ROM already. But yeah, I would prefer to use the original ROM, since paid themes are only available for the official version, plus it contains the Mi Store with all the pirated apps.

So, did you get back to dev?
I have succeeded in flashing Miui 8 over an old version of Miui 7 then I installed gapps with an en.miui tuto but now I have problems installing superSu to fully root the phone and use Titanium to restore everything I had.
Any advice.?
Note if you try to unlock bootloader: it worked for me only after getting Miui 8.
don't bother with china rom, too much bloatware, location probably not working, chinsese functions not disabled. Use the xiaomi.eu rom, it's much better, it's the china dev rom but transformed into a global rom.

Don't tell what you don't know...
"probably"...
Word that indicates how reliable it's all you're saying.
Location works, "your" bloatwares deactivated with the simple native root of rom.
Use it before denigrate.
ho it seem that you have no clue about the differences (except languages and gapps) between chinese, global and xiaomi.eu rom,. have fun with the rom

I prefer the original chinese rom, it's less bugged, has the chinese mi store and the full theme store (i have mi credits and also use paid themes). but i'm on xiaomi.eu since miui8 came out. i'm just too lazy nowadays to bother with my devices for more than 1 hour, and this tinkering can take hours and hours. if xiaomi will not release an SD820 or SD821 device with 2K screen and at least 6" i will be out soon, but i will miss miui so damn much
They say it will be 5.5 inches I would also prefer 5.7-5.8 inches at least

Can TWRP be installed on any Mi5 with any ROM?

Im on ROM Global Beta 6.11.10, so can I installed the TWRP 3.0.2.1 on it with no problems?
official TWRP - where to - web site
always go with the latest realease
(if not stated otherwise by author/maintainer) and use the one made for your phone (if available).
Remember the rules of the miui (and of the fora): read&patience ... then try or test ... and sometimes go back
So for the official TWRP you can go visit their website and have a look there (otherwise roam this forum -and other ones- for valid alternate versions).
Go to the source: the TWRP website > choose your device
and also read the info (important!) > here the FAQ page

If your BootLoader is unlocked, it should be possible.
But unlocking BL needs MIUI China Developer or the MIUI Global Developer.
And i think you don't have one of those if i read it correct.

But it seems easy unlock the bootloader, I know that the request will not be answered immediatly, but it Will be the time to the developers make a stable version ofi the CM 14.1. I only fear to try to install the TWRP and Brick the device, so my question is that if any Mi5 with the unlocked bootloader can haver the TWRP flashed without risks

In fact, yes.
But no one can give you a garantee that it will work.
But there are lots of people now with TWRP on Mi5 (including me) and no problems, if you follow the instructions closely.
But you will need MIUI Chinese Developer version OR MIUI Global Developer version.
And you need first the BL unlocked.
You can after that also first install CM13, which is pretty stable, and later switch to CM14.1 when it is stable.
Sorry to ask, but by Global developer version you mean the Beta version? Im on ROM MIUI 8 6.11.10 Global Beta.. so its fine to flash the TWRP?..One more thing, here on XDA I saw on the GUIDE that te more updated version was TWRP 3.0.2.0, but to Mi5 currently is the 3.0.2.3 correct? And the only way to update the TWRP is to flash it again?

You need the developer versions to activate the Root option, then you can go on with TWRP installation.
MIUI versions:

I had indeed Global beta pre-installed on my phone. And after a little explore i found out that is the same rom as Global dev. So yes, i did unlock my Mi 5 with Global beta and then flashed twrp and CM 13.
At least i understand that it is the same from MIUI forum.
And anyway it worked.

How I feel about CM 13? Great rom. Everything worked fine and smoother than MIUI in my opinion. Now I've moved to CM 14.1 and there are few little bugs but overall i recommend also that as daily rom.

Anyone install GAPPS through TWRP?

My Mi Mix is on its way. I really enjoy the Google dialer and other stock apps compared to most vendor apps and have been successful on many devices simply flashing the Aroma version of Gapps ( I have to experiment with what to install and what to leave out) over a stock ROM through TWRP. Has anyone tried this on the CN or EU roms? If not I'll give it a shot when I get my phone and see what errors if any are induced.

Fascinating, but I personally hadn't thought of it nor have I read of anyone doing this. The EU Beta weekly comes with GAPPs and has almost no bloatware. I leave SuperSu, the EU RC2 TWRP and Xposed in my system folder and just update via TWRP and root before rebooting via TWRP.
Once this is done updating takes about 4 minutes
Enjoy the Mix, it's an awesome smartphone

Moving from Lineage Os Back To Miui

Hi there, when I got my Mi5, six months ago, I've used Miui for a week, but soon as I can I switched to Lineage OS, because I was used to Google Stock I had on my previous smartphones (Nexus, OPO).
Now I would like to try the new miui (probably xiaomi.eu or miuipro), and my question is: I need to take some precaution or I just go in TWRP, wipe all I need to wipe, flash the miui 9 rom, magisk (I need root) and reboot the phone? Is that all?
Same if I would came back to LOS? Wipe data/system/dalvik/cache flash LOS, Gapps, eventually magisk and I'm done?
Or something more is needed when moving from MIUI to LOS and viceversa?
Thanks, I've tried miui 9 on a Mi 5x and now I'm really interested in try that again on my Mi5
@maicasajusta flashing LOS or unofficial Miui versions is pretty straightforward!
In case you need to go back to LOS, sometimes it's required you flash a dev firmware...
so in case you get the Error 7 message, here's the link

that's exactly what I wanted to hear, thanks! yeah, I'm aware of error 7, I got it in one of the update of LOS and solved just as you said
Keep back this thread just so ask: what if I want to move back to MIUI GLOBAL (Stable/Beta), from LOS, and viceversa? I've read that there's some risk to relock the bootloader, is that true? I would love to try the new notification shade.
Thanks.
u neeed to wipe internal for installing los 15 from miui official
for miui9 can be flashed via miflash tool
also i'd suggest try masik miui/ miui x over the above two. Updated a little less regularly but far more stable and polished compared to the others

Official ROM? Yes. EU? No. So just flash EU if you want to try MIUI and still be able to switch ROMs easily.

Best rom for Redmi 4X?

I just bought a Redmi 4X and it's running MIUI.
For those who has the phone for more time already and experience. Which rom is the best for Redmi 4X in terms of performance/free ram and batery life?
MIUI? Lineage? Ressurection Remix? Other?
Use MIUI Pro/Xiaomi.EU For Best Battery Backup and Much Personalized Option in addition to MIUI.
For stock Experience, You should go for RR Official or Many Users Reports ViperOS have got them the best Battery Backup and Performance is also Good. Try Dot.OS too
I have tried some custom roms, but somehow I always end coming back to miui. For custom roms I really like mokee and the last unofficial AEX with f2fs support (I think official RR should be almost the same but right now I don't want to flash again). The problem with mokee is xposed and safety net. And AEX it feels so smooth, but after some days I noticed a drop in performance, speaking about games like asphalt Xtreme, but if you don't play games then you should be fine. Right now I'm with miui global dev 7.12.21 debloated and clarity 1.8 kernel, and I'm getting really nice battery backup without any loss in performance.
Oh and for miui, I think the best it's miui eu. But I recommend to install the 7.12.21 build. The most recent versions have bugs with notifications and camera2api. Multi pro should be good too, because if I'm not mistaken it's based on global dev, so it's already debloated and has the new notification shade.

Multi pro should be good too, because if I'm not mistaken it's based on global dev, so it's already debloated and has the new notification shade.

I'm new to the Redmi 4X XDA thread here, any you tell me what's going on with this Encryption bug in TWRP ?
I've just unlocked bootloader using Mi Unlock tool and wanted to install TWRP and root to backup and then Flash RR Rom .
Do i also have to face this encryption bug as well as everyone is talking about in twrp threads ? (I've not enabled any type of encryption in MIUI. Settings are same as factory new MIUI version and use simple PIN as screen lock)
Which TWRP version should i use to have completely bug free experience ?

Use MIUI Pro/Xiaomi.EU For Best Battery Backup and Much Personalized Option in addition to MIUI.
For stock Experience, You should go for RR Official or Many Users Reports ViperOS have got them the best Battery Backup and Performance is also Good. Try Dot.OS too

MIUI encrypted out of the box.
I'm on TWRP 3.1.1-0
All you have to do in order to decrypt:
Boot into TWRP recovery
Wipe
Wipe data
Format data (it will ask you to type "yes")
**You'll lose every single data in your device, so you better make a backup of your wanted files**
Make sure to disable dm verify before you boot into system (even if you just flash new ROM and GApps):
Boot into TWRP recovery
Advance
Tools
Disable dm
Cheers
