Just got my mi 11 ultra China Rom....installing google play store is easy etc.
But one weird thing....all my past google purchase is forgotten. Asking me to re purchase them all again. ????
Why?
Really? That's very weird.
I suppose you logged in using your Google account that had purchased everything, right ?
I suppose so...but it's not happening. LoL first time I encounter such issue.....
Maibe check the app google play store ( and google related ) permissions ( allow everything ) .
Also check if you have the other google related services installed ( framework , play services etc ) i know that google relies on several services in order to work ok.
Will try to post on Monday if i encounter any issues on my china variant.
Cheers !
Installed Google Service last night and pretty sure it's still asking me to repurchase before I hit the bed.....but this morning...vola !! everything back to norm, no longer ask me to repurchase.
Thanks
Do you intend to keep the Chinese firmware or flash to the global?
So far I don't have problems with China rom. Only one small thing with notification on the rear screen ( not showing all tough enabled ) but it works in other rims so must be something from my side..
Until I encounter serios issues, will not flash anything else
Did you run any debloat scripts or anything yet?
absolutely nothing yet, just uninstalled several Chinese apps from the xiaomi china store app .
Will see if i have any issues in the future and consider it
Have you already tested google pay?
Some people say it is working normal with the chinese version and other say it won't work.
I am a little bit confused because of that..

Is there anyway to disable the Chinese assistant stuff in miui launcher ?
I don't want to break anything yet or I might not be able to finish unlock and flash global rom
Tap and hold the home screen , settting, disable vault and search tap
Anyone tried using android auto? Didn't work for me

That worked quite well! There is no Chinese search engine or vault anymore!
Is it possible to put Google now on the miui launder where the Chinese vault used to be ?(swipe left from home screen)

May I know how to install Google playstore in Mi 11 Ultra?

Hi guys, just picked up a realme X2 pro. I noticed some devices have Google assistant and all that built in. I had my device sent from China but I had to add the play store and all that. I have a breeno Assistant built in instead. Also when I swipe down to search it's in Chinese still but the phone was set up on English. Some models have a app drawer and I do not. I can't even install a different launcher on the phone. Any tips or what I need to do?

I have the play store I can download launchers but can't change them to default. I can't change anything from default apps. Like Google messaging when I set to default it automatically goes back to the original one. Other users have said they have Google assistant built into the phone but I have something called breeno

Seen somewhere on the web that you can install the European rom over the Chinese one. Maby you could try that. Dont know how that works on realme phones since i have not gotten my hand on one yet. Ill be getting the European version that has everything installed by default.

I'd love to know where you heard this, as they don't even list the EU rom for download yet and people seemed to have issues doing the same with the X2.

I'm also looking to flash my Chinese phone with the EU Rom and haven't found anything yet. If there is someone here that has done this, do give a shout-out!
Hi All
Currently running the china rom until I can flash the eu one in 7 days. Was just wondering is there anyway to use Nova and gestures?
I've installed fluid navigation, granted over adb and it works perfect until the screen goes off. As soon as the screen goes off it seems to kill fng which then doesn't work again until a reinstall. It's really weird
Hello,
Heard that it has something to do with miui optimizations, try disabling that from the developer options and let us know how it goes.
Cheers !
Thanks, tried that but still no joy. Works fine until the screen goes off then it completely kills it. Must be something with stock gesture taking over but they don't work with Nova
Using the edge gestures app and this seems to work..
sorry to hear that, i also have the premium Nova launcher app and waiting to see whenever they will make this possible. i even bought sesame integrations for it .
saw a workaround on the mi.com forum but that guy was using xiaomi.eu
https://c.mi.com/thread-3660446-1-0.html
Not willing to flash xiaomi.eu only for this functionality, not to mention that they really improved the stock launcher in miui 12 and 12.5 sounds even more interesting .
Cheers !
Working well now with edge gestures, even from the bottom.
The nova Google now page doesn't work though for some reason. Ive still got 6 days to decide whether I'm flashing eu or not lol

how did you now get it working?
Edge gestures from play store works great. Doesn't even need adb permissions.
My Google feed page randomly started working too on nova :/
Only issue currently is now with Google news widget. I can press the buttons to scroll through headlines but can't open it by pressing :/ unless I open the app first then the widget works again for a short while lol

Same, I thought I would have to flash the eu rom and use nova launcher but I can't live without gestures but after a day I figured out how to turn on the app drawer and get rid of the vault and all that Chinese nonsense.
They're is a lot of crap I could uninstall from the cmd line but I'm getting great battery life already and I don't want to break it .
After Watching a YouTube video on miui 12 features I learned how to make miui launcher almost like nova
Still have 5 days to decide whether to install the eu rom but I heard you can't relock the bootloader ( or it bricks ) and this will break all your finance and banking apps which would be unacceptable...

https://www.reddit.com/r/Xiaomi/comments/duh08i
Recently purchased a mi 11 ultra, and I immediately noticed a few problems with it. Namely, the notifications seemed to be simply not working for some apps. Chinese apps like Wechat still work fine, but "western" apps such as discord and reddit simply do not show any notification at all. I tried some simple troubleshooting, and I enabled autostart, checked all the notifications in the settings, and even disabled miui battery saving options, but to no avail, still discord and reddit was silent. I'm trying my best to avoid a factory reset, so I would appreciate any help I can get. For reference, I am currently using miui 12.5.4, and a chinese rom of the system.
Hi I had a similar problem, notably with Acalendar, my favourite calendar app. Furnishing the app with every permission, autostart and as much battery as it likes did not help.
In Acalendar, there is a notification test option. This did not work and I got an error message that the notification was blocked, but Acalendar did not know why which didn't help much.
In Acalendar, there's and option in setiings/notifications called Sticky Date. I read this was a fix for some Huwaei phones, turned it on and now notificatons work.
I'm not sure I understand why this works, but hope it helps a little.
Cheers
Steve
ps I'm on 12.5.4 China Stable too

Thank you for your reply. Unfortunately I don't see an option for "sticky dates" for apps such as discord or reddit. On the topic of using chinese rom, do you have a solution for changing the app search bar to change search engines? it seems to only have tou tiao, baidu search and sogou as options by default, and I would be delighted to know if there's a way to change it.
Hi yes I realise the advice was for Acalendar only - sorry it didn't help more. I've updated to EU weekly now, so can't check any Chinese ROM features.
Cheers
Steve

hello all
Someone was able to resolve the issue with standby notifications? (
It's because of battery optimization, just turn it off for the app that has the problem. If you don't see that setting, try the app 'Hidden Settings for MIUI' from the play store. Make sure the app is allowed to run in background as well.
After upgraded to 12.0.2. I found my Google service didn't work as normal. I decided to reinstall one by one apk again ( Google play service, framework, account, contact, calendar, play store). After that Google service seem to be fine but only one day. Got error for Google play service missing and play store can't sign in. So, I turn off miui optimization and reinstall Google service again after that Google seem to be fine. But the main problem for me is after 12.0.2 push notifications doesn't work anymore ex line app ( call, message ). If leave mobile for 2-3 minutes , I won't get notifications anymore until enter to the app again. ( Already set battery optimization-off, run in back ground, notifications- important). Any suggestions are welcome.
The only suggestion i have is to downgrade to android 10 again (12.0.2.0 was an upgrade to android 11).

I just got the notification for the 12.5 update are your gapps still working? Mine worked for a while after deleting and reinstalled google play services. Downloading and installing again could fix your line issues.

Is there a problem if I install Indonesian ROM with NFC on Globlal model without NFC?
Will the phone get hard pricked or something?
P.S I change ROMs using miflashtool.

The phone will not die, but you will have problems with the software, such as not recognizing the camera after taking a picture, the flashlight does not work, you can not change the Hz of the screen ...
This happened with Xiaomi.eu a long time ago, since they use the base ROM for spesn (the NFC variant) and had not made the necessary modifications to work in spes (the non-NFC variant).
I did it. And nothing bad will happen. What NeoSDAP says about the camera is bullsh*t, the camera works fine.
Look out the thread I created about the process and the result:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/is-it-safe-to-flash-indonesian-rom-over-a-global-rom.4534777/
Don't install the version with Android 12, I tried it some time ago it's messed up: weird default configurations and options missed. I saw there's an update for it, that probably fixed that but still, do it under your own risk.
I'm still using the lastest Indonesian ROM with Android 11. Except for the fact that apps like Netflix can't be downloaded from the Play Store because of the lack of Play Protect certification, everything else works like a charm. For apps you can't download from the Play Store like Netflix, you can download them from sites like APKPure and they work, so it's not really a problem either.
Good luck.

It also has the Mi Calendar app instead of Google's and the Mi Browser (besides Chrome). It also has the "App Vault" option for the left screen (-1 says the Launcher), not only Google Discover like the Global ROM. And the best thing about it for me it's that it's an official ROM. It's not a custom ROM that who knows what the hell was modified in it. I've using it for months and everything works fine.

NFC is hardware dependent. If your phone doesn't have the required hardware, NFC won't work. This is similar to FM radio.
I wouldn't suggest flashing ROM for another region on your phone, especially if your bootloader is locked. If you unlock your bootloader, it will give you a lot of flexibility and ability to troubleshoot problems.
