Is the Global Rom Suspended Forever?

Is the global rom suspended forever? and its better change to China Rom or use xiaomi.eu Rom or still waiting?

hä?

I am currently running the china stable rom (7.2.13.0) and don't really have a lot to complain. Yes, you have a few chinese apps here and there you cannot completely remove but so far it's not bothering me that much.
I am also planning to move to either the official global rom or to the eu rom as soon as I read mostly good things about it. Capacitive button issues, high battery drain, finger print scanner issues, random FCs, etc. are all things I do not encounter right now on the china stable. But once these issues are ironed out on the other roms I will think about a switch once more.

Would a system app remover tool work ?

Me having the same impression as you having. However, I tried China Stable/Dev, Xiaomi.eu and finally using Global buggy suspended ROM! Most crapy situation ever!

I got my phone loaded with the suspended version.
However recently I received an OTA that updated it to MIUI Global 7.3.5.0.
Doesn't seem to be dead to me

Lag City

Hi all
Used to be a big fan of custom romming all of my phones. But ever since android pay ive been on stock rom. So now I'm a bit out of touch with everything.
Just got LOS on my MI5 and I've noticed that there is a LOT of lag. Does anyone else notice this? In the past AOSP based roms are so much smoother than standard MIUI roms, right now the opposite has been true.
Anyone else experiencing this? So far I'm running latest LOS nightly, standard kernel. Only thing I've added is magisk to use android pay.

I have had the same experience. Even some of the ROMs start out fast then slow down to a halt over time. The fastest/stable ROM I've used is PureNexus + Xceed Kernel, and it supports Android pay, Magisk, Systemless Root, SafetyNet bypass and Substratum and has a nice Pixel like interface (just install Google Pixel Launcher as a system app).
However, keep an eye out: Xiaomi just dropped new kernel source a few days ago and it might solve a lot of the performance issues we've been having. They finally (sort of) sorted it out performance issues on MIUI too in the last (stable) update.
edit: Forgot to mention that the lagging seems to be a result of aggressive frequency handling due to poor resource allocation resulting in "overheating" (it never really gets hot, because as soon as it gets noticeably warm there are aggressive throttles).

install kernel auditor and look your cpu frequences, i m using los since 2 months and the rom is very smooth, just like miui

los seems to get laggy after few days of use. I find aosp to be much more smoother and slim 7

I totally agree with you! I use the MIUI based on Android 6 + Xposed(XMIUI modul)

Which stable update are you talking about? I mean tbh on the latest stable that I Had (from a few days ago) it was mostly fine. But certain apps in certain situation just seem to bog down which is really annoying given the amazing hardware the mi5 has.
Never had any heat issues in MIUI which makes me think LOS isn't really that great.

go to kernel adiutor, go to virtual memory and increase the z-ram

Also just tried purenexus. standard kernel....all of my problems are now solved

that would've been a good shout. But i've switched to purenexus. Everything appears to be fixed.

test slim and xceed kernel based on new surce! is better

Random restarts and heating issues with Redmi 4x

I have a peculiar problem with my Redmi 4x
My Phone restarts randomly multiple times and heats up in a weak network area. The top area of the phone, where the ear piece is usually becomes hot.
This happens when I am a basement, forest area, lifts etc. As long as I am in my home network things are perfect, phone goes crazy when it's in roaming.
This problem I've been facing in all the custom roms ( treble/non treble, AOSP, Luis RR, LOS, AOSP, Carbon, Nitrogen etc) , however I noticed after installing stock MIUI with locked boot loader, the problem disappears.
I have also tried different kernels and radio firmware combinations, but it hasn't help. I have even changed the network modes many times from 4G to 3G to 2G and vice versa.
Is there any other way to resolve the problem, I have searched every where and now I am back with MIUI 9.
I would like to install custom rom again.
Thanks

I also have the same problem
---------- Post added at 09:18 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:12 AM ----------
how to get rid of that problem

While when low network range area I have also faced this issue but it's just barely warm but not heating and using mobile data on custom ROM heating is little more.
I think it needs to be fixed from custom ROM development end.
While when In MIUI(9/10 Global beta)there's no heating issue in low or no network but when using data device does get warm doesn't heat up.
SOT is roughly around 4 to 5 hours.
I think it constantly searching for network and hence the heating in low network area.
Just check what different type of network available in your surroundings area and change it accordingly.

I have tried installing stock MIUI 9 Gobal/Developer with unlocked boot loader, but the phone still restarts randomly. Same thing happens with the custom roms. Like I said earlier, once the boot loader is locked, things are perfectly fine.
That means I am stuck with stock MIUI 9 for ever Missing all the amazing custom roms.
Is there any relationship between 'locked/unlocked boot loader' and random restarts??????
Another observation:
In airplane mode, phone doesn't restart or heats up
In safe mode phone restarts multiple times and heats up
Clean flashed custom roms, with no apps, phone still restarts
It's strange that I have been using various custom rom on my old Moto G , and it works like charm, better than stock rom. It doesn't heat up or restarts.
I may be wrong, but I believe people who have not faced similar problems with their Redmi 4x, have not left their network area.
I know all the developer are working really hard to make Redmi 4x awesome. :good:
Thanks

Finally I found a rom that doesnt restarts or heats up randomly
After trying out most of the popular roms, which were restarting randomly many times due to week network signal.
Finally with a heavy heart ( I don't like MIUI) I installed MIUI 10 by Xiomi.eu rom 8.8.30 beta, to my surprise it worked flawlessly. I used TWRP 3.2.3.0 and then magisk 17.1 with no issues.
Battery is really good, with zero drain during night hours when not in use, Volte works, all google play store apps works ( google camera, Google phone etc all works) and the best part NO MORE RANDOM RESTARTS AND HEATING.
Finger sensor works really good, UI is very smooth,
I have installed the ruthless pixel laucher and adaway, they work fine.
Few things I didnt like about the rom
Notification panel is ugly.
Substratum theme doesn't work
Ear piece volume is low
Miui theme engine doesn't work, every time I try to install, it returns an error
Led notification are working, but red, green, blue doesn't work ( though it shows options but doesn't work)
Xposed framework installs, but the gravity module doesn't work.
not many customization options ( may be some xposed module may work, I haven't tried)
I believe the above information may help those who hate MIUI, but are looking for a stable rooted rom without compromising on stability.
Cheers !!:good:

Thank you very much for updating with all details, much appreciated.
Not sure why your device giving multiple issue and running good on Xiaomi Eu ROM but anyways if anyone gets issue like this then one may try this particular ROM.
Try using "light manager" app to change between notification color or "Tasker" (there's tutorial how to use Tasker to change notification LED colors)
If your device doesn't hardware doesn't support then it's not going to work.
In my Redmi 4X colors work.(model number MAI 132 can be found on back side of box)
Early manufactured Redmi 4X are equipped with multi colored led notification light but later ones are only white.
MIUI third party themes should work I don't remember exactly though if you are looking for some customization with MIUI.
There are very few Xposed/magisk framework module available to customize with on MIUI.
Thank for sharing.cheers!

Welcome!!
My phone supports all the led colours, it was working with all the roms; excluding Luis RR- its doesn't glow at all.
Any ways, I have used this Xiomi.eu rom for the past 4 days and not a single restart or a weak network, it's hard to believe.
Can you please suggest a way to change the notification shade. I am aware that there are few apps on Google play store that can do, but aren't great.
Thanks you

Glad to know how good this ROM working on your device.
Currently there's no MIUI 10 themes in Mi/zhuti theme store.
Just few weeks ago they changed how themes are applicable depending upon the MIUI version and for results as of now I am writing this there's no theme available to change the notification shade yet, hope they are working to make it happen as soon as possible.
You'll see message when applying theme about theme isn't compatible but icons are pretty much usable and they can be set in theme customization and some other other part of themes also customizable.
You'll have to check it manually if it'll work or not.
Until then MIUI users have to wait for MIUI 10 Themes.
They have also started mentioning theme version (MIUI4/5/6/7/8 OR 9) to avoid compatibility issue but all previous version themes works just fine with older or newer MIUI.
Currently there's issue with applying older themes on MIUI 10 ( particularly changing notification shade).
Since several weeks I was on DOT OS 2.4 and just recently moved to Havoc 2.0 Pie so I can't say anything about last week's or this week's MIUI update if they have come up with MIUI 10 themes which will allow to change notification shade.
If I get any information about it I'll update it.

Do you find any other solution. i want to use Havoc ROM, due to network issue its not stable! if anyone find the solution kindly tell me

Android 10 based MIUI 11.0.1.0 is available for Redmi 8 EEA. Is it bug free?

So the update was available for a while if you're on Global and it just released for EEA devices. I honestly thought that they'll skip it and only release the 11.0.2.0 version on EEA.
If what I'm reading is correct, it was released a while ago for China and apparently some of the Global users got it too, it it supposedly more polished and it has a few bugs patched.
Can someone who downloaded the Android 10 based MIUI 11.0.1.0 and used it for a while on their Redmi 8 report how stable and polished it is? Did you encounter any bugs? Is it safe to update now or should I wait for a patch or two?
Update:
I installed it and it seems to work fine, no bugs so far and the only "issue" I found was that the Search in Settings takes a bit more time.

This is my review
Miui 11.2.0 android 10 for redmi 8 Nigeria
Android 10 update on Redmi 8 Global Edition Nigeria : Review
Today I received the much awaited android 10 update on The Xiaomi Redmi 8 series and having awaited this update eagerly I was curious to explore the new fixes and features this update was to have .
Overview: the update named miui 11.2.0 global had a whopping 1.9gb as size on notification.
It took me approximately 13minutes to download it on MTN Nigeria 4g and installation was very smooth via the bootloader .
Restarting took a bit longer than normal for a first start bearing down almost to 1minute 23 seconds than the usual 50 seconds boot time I had due to first time start.
Unfortunately and much to my disappointment and anguish. This update came still based on Miui 11. I know, I know I am disappointed myself, I wanted miui 12 so bad.
Transition on miui 11 was normal and my entire set up was untouched , however I did notice that I had the gesture bar beneath the screen which I promptly disabled. This i hope is a sign we would get miui 12 soon.
There was no lag when I went through the phone also I did notice that a couple of xiaomi's native apps had been updated notably the browser.
The miui launcher for those using the default launcher on Android 9 now has the app drawer ability enabling have apps in a drawer than on default home mode, although I had this feature since installed a direct apk immediately I bought the phone..
Bugs:
Then to the bugs. The android 10 release is basically stable with probably bugs I haven't yet noticed but two bugs were immediately very obvious to me.
Battery drain: unlike in android 9 , my battery dropped drastically more in minutes than I ever experienced in this device dropping from 99 to 97 in 2 minutes on use than the usual 5, it did stabilize as the device settled and being used to custom ROMs I did expect it. I would update about the battery life as we progress.
Google assistant: by default I enabled Google assistant by long pressing my power button for .5 secs since I used gestures but it didn't work, I noticed the assistant apps was gone and downloaded from playstore but it still hasn't worked. I do love the assistant and hope the next update fixes the issue.
Verdict:
In a nutshell, if your a tester freak like me, downloading the latest update won't be a bad idea but don't just expect miui 12 as you will be disappointed.
You can delay the download till you have miui 12 avaliable which I believe won't be long enough, best guess October .
Funny side : was it me or did I think my device was a bit lighter after the update, I mean I picked up device and it felt like some weight was taken off, maybe it's my imagination.
Tell me what you think about your update in the comment section below and follow me back

I noticed a few bugs in addition that you wrote.
Icon bug: If you turn off MIUI opitmalization, then some icons in the homescreen will be bigger than the others. In Android 9, I never noticed this issue. You can easily fix it by turning back MIUI optimalization, and force stopping the System UI and the System launcher(they 'ill restart if you go back to the home screen, don't worry)
Spotify bug: Since the update If I turn on Equalizer in the settings of the spotify app, then the music will sounds like an errape
And the google assistant is working fine for me
The deitals of my Redmi 8: 64gb storage, 4GB ram
Chipset: Qualcomm SDM439 Snapdragon 439 (12 nm)
CPU: Octa-core (4x1.95 GHz Cortex-A53 & 4x1.45 GHz Cortex A53)
GPU: Adreno 505
I wrote the last 3 rows because I don't know if there is a Mediatek/Mali version of this phone
Europan rom (Locked bootloader)

Yeah, I also noticed a few bugs that bothered me enough to downgrade back to Android 9 for now, and while I was at it I installed MIUIMIX to hopefully get a bit more battery and a bit less spyware

I am always doing local backup, transfer on my PC, then changing ROM and once ready return backup back to phone and restore.

im only getting 2 bars on mobile reception with in my home with the new version
XiaomiEU v13.0.10.0 stable​so i went back to EEA and now im getting 4 bars and better download speeds on 5g​

The keyboard sometime minimizes/closes itself after clicking on an input window. (only when using gestures for navigation) I haven't noticed this issue with the 13.0.9, but I can't guarantee that it wasn't a problem back then.

Having Network problem.

Coming from xiaomi.eu 12.5.20 - battery life is a lot worse.

Do not disturb (DND) mode doesn't work properly. I continue receiving WhatsApp sound notifications. It's really disappointing.

Hi alleshi,
As far as I researched correctly, v12.5.4.0 was the last fastboot version.
Happy Easter!

Plenty of bugs. Reception is a bit worse, battery life more so. Keyboard doesn't pop up every now and then or decides to minimize while typing, automatic time is completely broken - shows up 07.may.2090. Now time and date are set manually otherwise it doesn't work at all. And i have to do this after every reboot. After the update all the apps have lost their permissions so they have to be granted again. So far i see no major improvements in camera. The rear display is completely forgotten. All in all i have the feeling of a minor A11 udate instead of a A12 experience. It's not a bad phone, but Xiaomi clearly don't have mature enough UI to be in the flagship game. I don't think i'm buying any other Xiaomi phone.

Its so sad to see, all this problems with this awesome phone... Im happy im still on 12.5.20, my idea was to what for a stable, stable version on A12, but ehmm, it don't seems to come.
Atleast my version is rock solid... But after this phone, no more xiaomi phones for me in some years.

It is an awesome phone, i am hoping for aosp rom sooner than later.

Hi 11 Ultra followers,
has anyone already testet the new xiaomi.eu 13.0.12.0 (release date 2022-05-13)?
Is it better than the previous 13 versions?
Still issues or finally "golden"?
Thanks and best regards!

With all the deepest respect, but why is this still called "stable" version???
For me the 12.5.20 is rock stable. Yes im still there, i follow to see when to upgrade, but it seems to take long time, if ever.

so I can not find anything runs everything smoothly
