Hi guys.I have the Mix since Dec last year and it's definitely one of the best phones I've used recently.
I. Currently using theatest Epic ROM but my issues I have ...Apps fc'ing randomly and also random reboots...Have been happening constantly even with other ROMs.I usually do a full wipe when flashing.What can be causing this problems.
Thanks in advance
I found in the past when I used unofficial miui roms for other devices [for which unofficial is the only choice] that fc and random reboots usually came down to an argument between hand installed [flashed or app style install] google apps and the core of miui. This was especially common when I flashed gapps through twrp, even into a clean flash of the rom. I have used miui roms on many other devices, stopped at the note 3 when it would behave for a week or so but over time pick up fc's and reboots that would drive me crazy after a bit. No google apps and no fc's /reboots on the note 3 at the time. Have you tried the stable Chinese rom [unaltered]?
If all else fails it could be a ram /internal storage issue.
I havent tried any official roms but I see that there is a official global rom now available.
I will give it a go and hope the fc's and reboots stop.
Thanks:good:

Not much really, you would have to go back on its warranty if any. Others may have more help though. Try and find ways to test the on board ram / storage and see if there are any issues, I am not knowledgeable enough in that area to guide you though.
Thanks though
I've been using my Doogee X5 Pro (not Max) since its release, it came with stock android 5.1, there was only problem with the alarm clock (when you changed the phone's default volume down, the alarm's volume got damped every time but never up), so after a while I was trying out random rom across the web, almost every single one of them had some issues from 5.1 to 7.1 like calls were noisy, battery life wasn't correctly shown and camera flash doesn't work, can't connect to PC, wifi problems etc. In the meanwhile doogee released an Official stock rom 6.0 and so for like a year and a half I had that on my phone but for a few months I am getting really aggressive popup ads on the phone, disabled com.android.snap and deleted/disabled every chinese app that might cause this, so far it works until I have to restard the phone for some reason? then I have to do it all over again.
Trying and testing every single avaiable ROm for just one phone would take tremendous ammount of time.
So I am curious, Is there any ROM that worth the effort to be bothered with and provide a final solution? At least until another cheap and powerful micarle phone arrives from china (back in 2015 it was a wonder IMO) in about 1-2 years.

In the meanwhile I get to know about Android Go, I am still looking info about it, but this might actually would be the best if the Phone supports it.
Official, clean, takes up less space, etc. I am not sure about a couple of things in this topic.

Just thought I would let you know I've found what seems to be a Stable malware free Rom for my Doogee X5 Max pro(at last).I've been testing it today after your post.
It's the .rom made by or for Xiaomi phones.MUI 8
I've not got enough posts on the forum yet to post the links
Installed with TWRP installed and Superuser rooted.
It took between 5 and 10 mins to load on first boot after flashing so be patient after TWRP install.After that pretty normal reboot times etc.
I did a Factory reset before installing the .rom
Then after the first boot I did another Factory Reset just to make sure it was installed super clean.
Some apps played up and it stated that it pre-installed,"Gapps" but it didn't.After research I found and installed this one and it works,
The Installer.apk didn't work but loading the MM-gapps-fixed-signed.zip loaded via TWRP works.
It's a very nice rom and looks like a,"Keeper" but time will tell.Scanned with Eset and no problems.
If you use TWRP to make a Nanroid backup before you try it you can easily go back to your present .rom if you don;t like it.It will take time to set it up right as a few things are different to find but nothing too bad.
I don't like stock file managers so quickly installed my fave,"total Commander" which I keep copies of on the SD card and my Laptop along with other apps/apks to save download times.
I don't know if I'm allowed to post links via Private message so it you want them PM me and we'll try
Just thought I would update.Although the Xiaomi phones.MUI 8 rom seems stable and half decent out-of-the-box there are some niggles when I used some of my Fave apps.Total commander file manager is slowed down.I couldn't change the Wallpaper unless I uninstaleld,"Holo Launcher" my fave launcher.
I decided to go back to my previous post Stock/modded rom.
[However.I've installed and been testing
How To Install Lineage OS 15 For Doogee X5 Max Pro (Development)
put it into a search engine as I can't post links.
The 14.1 Lineage is running Fantastic.Totally clean so far and no problem with any of my apps.
If it keeps up like this this is how a DooGee X5 Max Pro should be :good:
Note:Yet again on first boot it took over 10 mins to come online so be patient but then acts normal.
Also I like to use a Different Keyboard so for any Lineage 14.1 users it's hidden away a bit on how to change.
Install your fave keyboard then
Settings
Languagea & Input
Virtual Keyboard
+ sign Manage Keyboards.May require a reboot after selection.

It will be worth it I think.I've been setting it up how I like it and not one crash or problem I can 't sort so far.I didn't even have to install Gapps.I just used my WiFi to install Google stuff and gmail/google drive.
The DooGee isn't my main phone now as I got fed up of the Malware/Adware rubbish but it's now going to make a fine backup phone :good:
PS
I keep TWRP Nandroid backups on my Laptop so I can easily re-install quick once setup .Also the TWRP backup time is less than 200 seconds compared with over 300 for the other roms so it's a super slim rom

Installaed TWRP 3.2.2.0 and LineageOS 14.1 with ARM Gapps (pico). From this site-- getdroidtips dot com/lineage-os-14-1-on-doogee-x5-pro/ -- there is a link which leads to 4 different LineageOS 14.1, sadly the oldest one installs without any problem. With the 3 latest one I get the STATUS CODE 7 error in TWRP, googled the problem, edited the updater-script.txt with notepad++ for the latest one and tried again after that I get the error that the "updater-script" missing from the path or something like this. Didn't have time to check the others. (Before all I installed XenonHD for Doogee X5 Pro without any problem but I want LineageOS). Also on the installed LineageOS the networking doesn't seem to work well. Will open a new thread about the whole problem.

Have sent you a PM
Hi guys,
I'm a bit concerned about my mi8. Since several weeks now the phone is getting so slow to boot, even into recovery mode !
For exemple, today before starting to see the havoc logo spinning I count more than 20 spins. Months ago it took only 5 or 6, 2 weeks ago : more than 8... Etc.
When phone is started first apps tha usualy open really fast (Viper4fx, gsam battery monitor, magisk notifications) are so slow to open. Some other apps same thing the moment I open them.
What do you think about that ? At first I thought my battery is dead. It charges as fast as usual. Discharging is like before I'd way. Not worst for sure So I hope Its nor that.
I'm using battery charge limit (the app, nor from havoc sertings) to stop at 81% and charge it always when the minimum reaches 40%. So for battery life I think I'm doing things well.
I'm still on pie. Please, see the attached picture to look at my version.
I'm wondering what could cause this big issue.
I'm used my make lot of backups with twrp 3.3.1-1. Sometimes 2 per days, sometimes none in 2 or 3 days and so from the day I unlocked the phone and installed my first and only rom : havoc. Sure I installed several updates but no other ROM and I stopped updating it cause it worked really as I expect it should. So...
Also, making twrp backups are Soooo slow. Generaly it tooks depending of the size, between 90 sec and 140. Now it takes more than 6 min !!
So before doing a last backup and do anything I wanted to ask what you all think about that before doing a clean install update/upgrade.
Do you think it worth the try ?
I tried to clear caches (both) in twrp. Nothing :/
I'm afraid I killed my phone memory or battery. Don't really know.
Last thing, maybe an important one but don't know why it would... I installed notify & fitness and sleep as Android for my mi band 4 and I noticed my phone getting slow during this period. About N&F it was on 12.27.2019.
The firmware was updated way after that issue... And of course I cleaned all app caches manualy, not using some weird app to do the job.
Sorry me for this long SOS, and please forgive my bad english. I'm starting to being crazy. OK, the phone works but oooh boy, Its slow.
Cheers
Your rom software is out of date. if you truly want the best experience on a daily basis. There is no doubt in my mind that Xiaomi.EU is still the absolute best experience overall.
It is light years better than the Global stock Rom, all of the bloat has been removed and it has some of the Pixel AOSP features integrated into the Rom. but yes it's still miui. For me that is a good thing because I am a fan. It sounds like you have never tried Xiaomi.EU so give it a shot. I guarantee, that if you keep it installed for a few days, you will not want anything else unless you are just bored. Wait until the new update comes out, it should be late today or tomorrow. by the way, you will average about 7.5 -8.5 hours SOT.
On the other hand, if you are content with Havoc, then migrate to the latest, Its pretty great but the battery SOT time is bad right at 4 hours. This can be improved by changing the kernel. I tested the LawRun_x5.0-60hz kernel and it improves SOT to 5.5 hours, and the OS gennnerally runs better. Other Roms are also good, but lack the abundance of features that Havoc has. A comparable heavily feature rich rom is CRDroid.
If you want to stay on your current rom, then clean your caches, and at least upgrade the kernel. That alone may be enough to improve your recent performance. i dont think you phone is going bad. You likely just have some corruption, or too many processes running in the background.
@tsongming Hi and cheers for replying.
To start, I forget to mention that I'm using a global version.
That being said, I did clean all caches including from all my apps. Manualy of course.
I did use Xiaomi MIUI for very long time. Since I got my first Redmi Note 4. As you well said, I did switch to custom ROMs for what you said.
Regarding SOT... And the reason why I didn't update anything on my Mi8 its because with this version of havoc and this kernel. Gsam bat monitor tells me now : 9h41 (5h58 Max) and before my issue it was 11h !
So, to answer you : before asking here I also trying to update the Rev kernel but lot of things didn't work anymore. Like unlock the phone with my fingers and I think its pretty much normal as Havoc as evolved so kernel did the same and is not compatible with older version I think. At least, mine...
Honestly I tried lot of things to make my havoc super speed, smooth with a great battery and I was happy with that
I do hope I answered to all your questions.
I don't know what to do cause I'm not 100% sure that starting from clean MIUI or custom rom will fix it. What if not ? I'll "forced" to reinstall "everything" (I'm aware of backup apps but dont wanna use them) even if I saved all important stuffs
And if I badly revert to the last MIUI (I never reinstalled MIUI after a custom ROM. I know there is good tuto, but...) I could break it and I'll loose everything. For now it works, slowly OK ^^' but I rather that than taking a risk and found what is the cause of my problem.

The current version of Havoc already uses the Revolution kernel, and its part of the current problem so use something else. The Law kernel that I mentioned is extremely good. but so are the others latest release such as Mipa and Twisted. and no fingerprint issues with these kernels.
As a longtime user you do know that anytime you switch the kernel that you should remove all passkeys, screenlocks, face unlock etc.? This could explain the slowness, you have encryption issues.
Android 10 is much improved over pie, except for the battery 11 hours SOT is unheard of on Android 10. Except for 1 guy claiming 11 hours on the ION rom. I tried the rom and it is good. but I am only getting 7 hours Sot, and the Rom is like Lineage, just the basics. No fingerprint issues.
You truly need a full clean install, including formatting storage. just backup your files first.
Xiaomi Miui? Did you mean Xiaomi.EU? if not Xiaomi.EU , then you really should try it, you wouldn't know from a past experience. This is Miui 11 on Android 10 and its flawless.
thx again @tsongming
Yep, I note all what you said to me. But to be honest last year anytime I switched from kernels to kernels I never had to reset screenlock etc. Last year cause as I said once I found the kernel which suits me I stuck with it.
So I can state its note related to that cause I didn't change it since month trust me, just tried the last kernel one or week ago to be sure if it was the cause or not. Just installed and uninstalled apps since.
look at this screenshot you'll see what I meant about SOT which was better month ago. :/ Maybe I didn't explain well...
I'm not against trying any roms including xiaomi.eu perhaps (I do have links for this I think but any link is appreciated just in case. I just download the lastest stable 11 from xiaomi.eu if its what you have in mind) but I want to be sure if it'll fix what I'm facing. You know ?
I'm afraid that doing a clean install with any rom won't fix my beautiful Mi8 ^^

You posted a question asking for help, but then you dont want to try anything because you tried things before. Yes, its true that Magisk is sometimes persistent, but it depends on the release. it is safer to remove the passkeys.
But if you really think about it, what would cause the phone to cool down, ignore the battery stats especially from Gsam it's often very wrong, I use it too, for years and in your case you are getting good SOT because you have a zero % for the phone. It's almost like a Sim card isn't installed? Every rom will provide extremely fantastic SOT when a sim card isn't being used. If you have an active sim card then something is wrong with the monitoring because Gsam is showing 0%, it should show something even if you havent made a phone call for days.
Do whatever you want it's your phone:
I still think that you have encryption or corruption issues and its bad enough for your to make a post about it. FYI : The battery dying doesnt slow down the phone. Yes, some stock roms, notably Apple intentionally by choice changed the kernel core settings automatically on aging batteries. Hence the huge controversy a couple of years ago, that isn't happening to you.
A dying battery doesn't slow down the phone, evn cold solder joints do not slow down the phone, they keep a phone from booting to system and to recovery. The only thing left is corruption or thermals, which on this phone good luck editing thermals because they are mostly encrypted. The remaining possibility is corruption, post your log files and lets see what's actually going on.
Again, what would slow down your phone even in recovery?
It's always thermals, or corruption. Slow to start up, even in recovery.: We can rule out thermals unless your battery temp or cores temps are extremely high. This leaves corruption. if its slow while booted into the system, then you may have apps or processes crashing and you are not aware of it. If that is true, then eventually the phone may stop booting up altogether. If its thermals causing overheating you should truly resolve this issue immediately before actual heat damage occurs. Did you ever flash display refresh rate mods? If so your DTBO partition could be the issue....corruption.
Use this program to provide an app list : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.onyxbits.listmyapps ( Weed out any unknown programs that you may not realise are installed. Post the list along with complete logs. Once you see these crashes, that I am sure the logs will show: Do as I suggested earlier: wipe and "format" your phone. Then later use best practices and remove passwords before changing kernels
Cheers. I'll try what you suggest.
I might have some questions in the future regarding format and some other things.
Never flashes display refresh rate and never noticed any overheat issue on my phone.
Sure, I'll do something like you said as soon as possible.
PS : you said "before remove passwords". You mean in the parameters of the phone like schema/diagram, pin, etc ?
Cheers

You could remove password under data/system/locksettings.bin But it's better to just go the settings//security/ *.* < remove whatever you have setup : prints and face unlock first before, pattern or pin.
Another good practice for Android 10, should you go there is :
Extract the boot image from the rom
Place it inside the downloads folder.
When ready to flash root, patch to the boot image first, ( this links the existing system binary credentials into the boot image)
Boot to recovery flash boot to boot
Then flash magisk > then boot to system and you will have no issues whatsoever with root.
Afterwards, if you decide to flash different kernel, Magisk is more likely to stay stay persistent.
I hope everything is good from this point forward take care.
@tsongming Thanks for reminding me the locksettings.bin thing because I used it once on my old phone and I forgot that.
Never installed 10 yet. But I take carefuly your advice.
Hello!
Did you fix it? Because it's happening to my Mi 8 too. It's exactly the same issue, the phone takes a long time to boot up, to open apps and even to boot into TWRP
I have that issues on my mi8
I had this problem with me before and I solved it by flashing the last official ROM, Now the problem happened to me again and I do not know what is the reason behind it @tsongming

I recently had some issues with my phone as well. I was able to get my phone back to normal functioning by flashing the latest stable fastboot rom using the flashall.bat method. (dipper_global_images_V11.0.3.0.QEAMIXM_20200118.0000.00_10.0_global)
I kept everything stock for a few days even recovery, to ensure once that everything was back to normal.
Next I flashed the latest OrangeFox beta recovery, and I highly recommend the latest beta build over any other version of Recovery, it will decrypt when official Twrp will not. It is now more up to date than the LR Team version, and all of the bugs have been solved by DarthJabba. In fact, he even added a script to work around poorly designed startup scripts, which are suprisening not consistent between the wide range of custom roms for the Mi8.
Today, I am still using Orange Fox, ( OrangeFox-R10.1_002-Beta-dipper) and the latest stable Magisk. I no longer have freezing, unexpected shutdowns, slow starts, or poor battery life. My issue was without a doubt corruption, and bugs with the mid february version of Xiaomi.EU. The last 2 releases have been solid.
Since this weekend I face the same problem. Every action seems to bit slower than before. And I don't know what I did that resulted in this problem. The last thing I remember I installed was the new Miui12 live backgrounds. But I deleted them again.
I'm on stock since some weeks.
But I don't want to install everything from the beginning again.
Do you know how to solve the problem without wiping everything?
Edit: As I think about it, it seems as if the caching of the apps doesn't work as good as before and the killing of apps is too aggressiv.
But what did affect it?
Edit: I found the solution for my problem.
With Android Battery Historian was able to find the process that made the trouble.
It was the Miui wallpaper carousel app. After deleting it the problems were gone.

it's a hardware issue and it's going to keep coming back, i spent the last two months trying to resolve it but i gave up.
it seems that UFS chip malfunctions on a lot of F1 and mi8 phones.

Sorry for repling only now guys...
Thx to all who proposed to solve my issue, I will tell you what I did to fix my mi 8.
I did a crystal clean flash :
- downloaded & installed last miui image using miflash
- used "clean all" at the bottom right (be careful to not choose something else like "lock boot loader ")
- then you'll need to flash recovery (twrp), then format data by typing yes. Then copy from where you want your custom rom, flash it flash magisk and boot.
I did this several months from now and my phone is like just new!
No issue at all since.
I guess installing lot of different kernels like I did before must have broken something and hopefully this could help if you dont have more serious issues.
Ps: battery is more than ok and there is no hardware problem.
Thx again to Dexer125 for his help!

I can confirm this.
I have been unrooted on stock for a few months now and have had no problems since then.
Hello, I have the slow issue (Androbench app with poor performances) after several dates when I have rooted my phone: Mi8 Chinese version with stock global ROM.
After unroot the phone, several days after, the phone works fine with Androbench app with good performances.
I need root my phone to use Magisk hide for Google Pay in order to avoid the Google block for contactless payment.
Can anybody help me about the understanding of this behaviour?
I do not know the reason why the phone is slow after root and why the phone works fine after several days after rooting.
Thanks in advance. Regards

Hi,
Mine has hardware issue (rooted).
Didn't try to unroot it if there is a difference like you describe.
Can't help you with magisk hide. I don't use it.
I have this issue with my mi 8 guys, just happened yesterday
So flashing the latest official rom via miflash is the way to fix it?

Hello, yes in my case. Sometimes, with wipe all, internal storage included, the problem it solved.
Recently I have the issue again without root: only with custom rom flashed. Several times the issue was reproduced out of my habitual site during vacances.
Thanks
For 3 or 4 months the phone worked great. Could play hours any kind of game with no issues. Then all of a sudden the phone begun to reboot randomly 3, 4 or 5 times straight for no reason. Would even reboot while in my pocket. Another frecuent issue is apps crashing. All the apps and extensions frequently crash (facebook, instagrame, Chrome, Gboard, Mi apps) might be those I am using as well as the ones I am not. Another issue is that it won't install updates, the system downloads them but fails to install, I had to use fastboot option.
I tried wiping the phone to factory, installing EU ROM, Global ROM, Changing to MIUI 12. When wiping the phone I even tried installing apps manually to see if there was a particular one messing with the phone.
NOTHING WORKS!!!
Do not know what else to do... I am about to throw the phone a buy a new one... planning to move out of Xioami...:crying:
ANY IDEAS???

Have you tried formatting (completely different to wiping) data partition before you've flashed any of these roms.
A few things 1st though, just to confirm anyways
Is your bootloader unlocked? Also you have stated you have tried eu rom, is this the xiaomi.eu custom rom you are referring to and if so what type of custom recovery do you have.
Based on my experience with my previous phones, frequent random reboot would only mean:
1) Your battery is bad
2) Flash storage is bad
3) Chip gone bad (CPU, IC, probably anything)
No amount of reset, flash would fix this issue. You need to bring the phone to the service center. Usually they'll change the whole motherboard or battery depending on the issue.
You can try to flash any AOSP rom and see if still having those issues.

I used Mi Unlock to unlock the bootloader, and yes the roms I used were official ones. I tried downloading the OTA and the Recovery files but can't install those. The Phone starts installing and at 7 or 8% is stops and reboots. So in order to install the different roms I downloaded Mi flash and used the fastboot files. Installing the roms through Mi flash from my computer into the phone does get me to the end of the installation.
How would the formatting work?

Use custom recovery like TWRP or orangefox. Backup your data to any external drive, then boot into recovery and use format data option. Also, as someone stated above, try aosp roms as well.

Hey everyone,
I just saw this news that the Android 11 open beta is out. Here's the link https://piunikaweb.com/2020/12/30/x...roid-11-public-beta-update-for-these-devices/
I'm currently downloading it now and I'll probably get a chance to flash it tomorrow. The file is 3.53 GB
Is it Global Rom?
I trust this site.wanna see some what features android 11 brings to mi 10t
will it work on mi 10t pro? and is it Global firmware?
edit:
i was able to confirm it in telegram, it's MIUI 12.5 Android 11 but for china rom only.

Damn, so it won't work on global phones? I was going to flash it tonight to see

I found a lot of info online about flashing global ROMS on xiaomi Chinese model phones, but I found nothing about going from global model phones to Chinese ROM...

no worries, you can flash it, but on MI 10T PRO is main camera broken.
Any updates on miui 12.5 can we flash it on our global versions?

I'm still backing stuff up... It's taking forever, I've spent the last half an hour trying to get Titanium Backup to work, it kept on crashing and not opening. I've got it up and running now and just backing up apps. I've also gone into TWRP and backed up all the smaller partitions. There's a video here of a guy talking through the set up and installation (in some other language...)
-------------
edit - update
Installed and it's running fine. It thinks its the Redmi K30S Ultra, and a few things are in Chinese, it looks like I'll be doing some debloating, but otherwise it seems all good. Camera seems to be working fine
My phone is a Mi 10t Global (not pro)
Little offtopic - anyone actually tried to restore smaller partitions in TWRP after backing up? I've heard from some people that it doesn't work on mi 10t, and if you actually do break something you can't fix it?

I installed from TWRP recovery, it installs fine. I'm not sure about stock recovery, I'm guessing it would work. Someone mentioned above that the camera wasn't working correctly on the Mi 10t Pro with this build too
To be honest, this rom is a bit of a nightmare... There's so much crap, bloatware, and Chinese rubbish installed in it. I've spent the last day trying to clean it up and remove stuff.
Other than that it runs nice and fast and snappy. I'm just worried about how much data is being sent back to China to be honest.
I've found that xiaomi.eu have already released a miui 12.5 rom based off this build and they've apparently cleaned up a lot of the crap and it has google play store and services preinstalled. The thread is here https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/20-12-28-29.59085/
I'm downloading it now, I have a feeling it'll be much less of a headache. I'll update once I try it out

Just finishing setting it up now. I had trouble initially installing it as it wouldn't boot (probably because I tried to avoid formatting data...) and the stock recovery that it flashed was in Chinese and TWRP wouldn't let me see the internal storage or flash anything... It was a bit of a soft brick and took ages to get out of...
It's up and running now and was a bit tricky to get it flashed. I had to do a few steps to get it running.
Flash the TWRP for our device then boot to it.
Format data and write 'yes' (this wipes everything, so back up first)
Reboot to recovery
*Then the problem was that I couldn't access the internal storage, so what I had to do was go to backup -> backup boot partition -> reboot into recovery, then I could access the internal storage and see the TWRP folder on internal storage and then copy files across...
Copy across the xiaomi.eu 20.12.29 rom and magisk 20.2
Flash ROM
I'm currently letting Google install backed up stuff before I go back and install Magisk.
So far the ROM looks nice, has google apps installed and none of the bloatware crap. I'd definitely recommend this ROM over the Chinese beta
