MIUI Version: 20161121
Notes from developer: (some)
Please double clear data before the first flash into MIUI8! This would break default theme - you can download new theme! Based on the Polish version of MIUI production! No family bucket millet, millet ad! The ROM has cracked official BL lock!
Starting from the development ROM version 6.1.14, the official phone BootLoader has encryption that would have BootLoader lock. But, this ROM doesnot contain BL lock
All ROM I have done are not locked, if your device BL is not locked, you can flash this ROM
For unlock, jump to other threads
If you opened my MI - Cloud Services - Find phone, please change before flash, or boot will prompt the device is locked!

Forget about that thread (with respect to OP) look on eu Miui site. It provides latest software, rooted, with all languages you can dream of and even OTA since recently. Every thing is explained on it except if you only wanted xposed.
Do you think Mi 9 will get some love from developers?
Xiaomi released the kernel source code on day one, it would be lovely to see the SD855 running some vanilla AOSP ROMs.
By the way, if anyone is interested, you can join the english Telegram group MOD EDIT: LINK REMOVED
I am sure once the phone is out and in use, we will see several good custom ROMS not long after.
I'll build AEX for Mi 9.
I ordered at Amazon.it and shipping is really fast compared to China shops, but I hope my unlocking wait time become 72h or less...

Yeah I think so. I was gonna get the Mi mix 3 but thought custom ROMs would find the slider tricky.
This one should be easier to port for?

Can I ask 2 questions real quick?
1. Why based off Chinese stable if you remove all Chinese aspects?, Wouldn't Global be easier for you guys?
2. Does your ROM feature lockdown mode which disables all biometrics?, It's in Android 9.0 but missing from MIUI I believe
XIAOMIEU/miGlobe/ROS cleanup actions
BOOT SCRIPT
What it does:
* choose 7 categories of app removal
* disable 36 apps as per post 6 (preferred method, ppl can reenable)
* uninstall super sticky apps (i'd still prefer disabling by renaming, but didn't work)
* remove usage access for google (this is the only part not working - because of custom ROM, they say)
* recover hostname modified by xiaomi (privacy) (hardcoded, but could read it from settings in future)
* remove weird XiaomiEU app icons
* disable wifi diagnostics
* disable dumping of network
Download: file attached
Installation:
- run in su terminal or add to any startup script
ADAWAY LIST
What it does:
* adds as many Xiaomi servers to adblocker as possible
Download: file attached
Installation:
- open Adaway menu on the left and choose 'Your lists'
- click menu button on the top right and choose 'Import all lists'
- choose your file, and apply
What actions are needed after MIUI ROM is installed and what is already improved:
[automated] to disable:
Code:
Browser, Cloud Print, CloudServiceSysbase, com.mui.translation.xmcloud, com.xiaomi.micloudsdk.SdkApplication, Digital Wellbeing, Email, Google, Feedback, File Manager, Google Backup Transport, Google Calendar Sync, Google Contacts Sync, Google One Init Setup, Google Partner Set Up, Joyose, Mi Account, Mi Cloud, Mi Cloud backup, Mi Credit, Mi Video, Mi Wallpaper Carousel, MiCloudSync, Music, NextPay, Xiaomi service framework
[automated] to delete (can't disable):
Code:
FindDevice, Miuidaemon, MiuiHome, Xiaomi service framework
Disabling MiuiHome helps a lot as this launcher causes gfx problems (empty black screen) even when it's not selected as home provider.
Another tasks post flash weekly update:
- [automated] root magisk 19 (with one click in L.R.Team TWRP)
- [enhanced] reenable hosts in Adaway including attached custom Xiaomi blacklist
- [automated] remove /system/media/theme/miui_mod_icons
- [not working yet] redisable app permissions, 'Usage Access' and 'Modify system settings' (the later ensures first two are not enabled later - the aggressive Xiaomi/Google apps ignore user choices and help each other to restore permissions user doesn't like)
- redisable Device Admin, Trust admin (find my device, smart lock)
- [automated] LOG_PATH_FLAG=0 in cnss_diag.conf and /data/vendor/wlan_logs/ transformed to file - this is usually kept after ROM upgrade, this is where WiFi spying and tcpdumpin' takes place
- [automated] xiaomi pushes "Mi9" hostname, that's not privacy sensitive, need to setprop net.hostname [YOURNAME] on each boot (e.g. 3C script)
original bash
Oh i hate MIUI so much, but have to live with it until alt ROMs will come, fully supporting fingerprint, bluetooth, camera.
This MIUI (EU) is so aggressive overwriting all apps and dialogs in the system, and it's overall ugly and unnecessarily complex (except pro-looking charging animation, 24h wallpaper, and AOD). It blocks starting apps by default, it blocks app notifications by default. Battery ops are a joke, and all memory cleaner triggers kill virtually everything running. Zero respect for high prio notif apps running. It's so modified that tons of xposed modules won't have impact. It even annoys with data connection dialogs, download operations.. they stick their nose everywhere. I don't trust this company at all, so i've taken stronger measures and zero byte to Xiaomi policy.
In first round of making this phone less retail and more pro is
- revoke all authorizations (get the hell out Xiaomi)
- stop feeding device ids (oh they even have choice for it, but i need more complex and trustful blocking via Xposed) to xiaomi apps
- delete xiaomi account, now that won't stop findDevice and other cloud nonsense from running (contradiction to Xiaomi statement findDevice not supported on unlocked bootloaders)
- disable xiaomi packages via titanium/3c:
Code:
BugReport.apk
CloudBackup.apk
CloudService.apk
CloudServiceSysbase.apk
GoogleBackupTransport.apk
Joyose.apk
MiGalleryLockscreen.apk
MiVideo.apk (useless app without DLNA)
Music.apk (useless app without DLNA)
NextPay.apk
ThemeManager.apk
but hey, it's not always possible, some apps can't be disabled, this aggression can be stopped by not deleting but renaming the files in /system/[priv-]app e.g.:
Code:
FindDevice.apk.disabled
MiuiDaemon.apk.disabled (can be disabled but will still show up, what)
MiuiHome.apk.disabled
- firewall block any remaining xiaomi apps to stop Baba/Baidu etc connections
Rinse and repeat til you see no data transferred in the network monitor.
Some UI fixes already done:
- AOD doesn't show any notifs -> use "MIUI AOD Notification icon" xposed module, however, it will show too much (not configurable)
- Notch is ugly like hell, can't smart-crop it like OnePlus(R) -> use Notch Remover app (i'd like some system solution rather, due to performance reasons)
- AI button can be fully configured, forget MIUI choices and install xposed Edge
- Device health, the new feature, is hidden, just trigger it via activities, then create the app icon via its UI for convenience
- several vanilla dialogs are accessible via Settings search or activities like appops, notifications
- navigation [bar] enhanced by xposed Edge
I applaud:
- existing offline cron-able backup (although it won't save 90% of system settings which is so needed on this ROM)
- complex data usage configuration
- not hiding call recording, no need for xposed tweaks
- good battery info (wide icon, great animations and LED confirmation), oh yeah, Qi people do need this for practical reasons
- all recent micro tweaks like click on clock on quick settings opens clock
-notif. light, samsung style - great , double tap wake, raise2wake (producing too many smp2p-sleepstate wakelocks) - also great
I (or hopefully a ROM author) would like to fix this:
- remove their Security (which i think includes all memory and battery handling), PermissionManager nonsense
- remove status bar alarm icon, just go already! (fix via xposed and 3c didn't work! it's on the left)
- reduce status bar height to align with notch (xposed plugin didn't work)
- show batt% when notifs are expanded (batt% is literally nowhere to be shown, not in Battery details either, unless you turn on % status bar icon which is annoying, want to see % only when expand quick settings just like on other phones - that is user friendly)
- this UI overwrite app icons, omg..why.. of course i don't use their lausy home app (which doesn't even bring Pie swipe-to-apps action), but twisted icons will show up in all system dialogs
- Pie navigation [bar] is only good in vanilla pie, Samsung OnePlus and Xiaomi managed to destroy it by customizations, would love AOSP style in full screen mode (navbar-less), Xiaomi additionally created "original" swipe-from-right Back action, which interferes with GBoard swipes
- how to enable either Oreo or original Pie recents? used to tweak it via xposed Edge on note9,6t
- the MAC is not randomized, are you kidding me + device name you set won't matter when you make connections, they push Mi9-Mobile name, i don't like both for privacy reasons
- weather widget (where is it), linking weather cities to clock cities
- AOD only on notification with a preview (OnePlus style)
- voice navigation in Camera, this will require a different app
- remove all stupid confirmations with timeouts with several seconds
- "this UI overwrite app icons" -> fixed by using Global dev version
i tried the Global Dev ROM http://en.miui.com/download-361.html and i was shocked that it's the same firmware except those ****ty icons! not much missing, very very little things only.. few more processes (like facebook snitchware), the firewall blocked them proactively.. no byte sent. will be cleansed quickly. i saw Night mode and 48mpix mode in camera briefly but it depends on kernel somehow. weird. so weird brand.

Getting massive smp2p-sleepstate wakelocks - even with double tap and raise to wake disabled. Any idea what else could be causing this?

AOD, double tap to wake, pocket lock, handwave gesture, out-of-pocket gesture..some of those.. i just tested disabling this wakelock and it didn't help battery life. but i have a parasitic magisk/xposed drain now so maybe i don't spot the difference right now.
Achieved good battery life in the end. No bad wakelocks at all. I have a temporary AOD set, d.tap to wake, so this is not causing it. Now i will turn on Pocket lock back. I guess just like it was written in the other thread, the wakelocks are caused by the doze gestures ("Phh" menu in Settings).
Vaste majority of glitches above are fixed in the AOSP ROM. Definitely far better than any Xiaomi ROM tested. Next time i wouldn't waste any time with Xiaomi software IF the classic root unfriendly functionality works (fp, bt-car, cam..). That will be precondition for a buy in future, and 2 week unlock period will be considered hard too. If OnePlus will put QC/QI to model 8, that'll be the next phone.
Root-friendly brands:
1/ OnePlus (all easy, ROM is ok to keep, all functions kept) - WINNER
2/ LG (pretty easy, lil bit functionality can be lost, but they keep back fingerprint & community don't care about their new models -> dead brand)
3/ Xiaomi sort of (difficult unlock, terrible software, very difficult flashing, all functions kept)
4/ Samsung sort of (problems with some functionality, more and more obstacles for developers, Knox, bad battery....tired of it)
Gutripping list - what to do after installation/upgrade of MIUI
moved to first post
Why don't you just buy another phone? It's easier...
What's worse for one.... Isn't for another.
I have got pretty good SOT 6 hours on wifi around 5 on mobile network.
I like Miui...and all the Chinese oehhhh they are spying tin foil head stuff come on...
XiaomiEU app icons can be removed here: non-destructively rename /system/media/theme/miui_mod_icons (thanksgod)
Magisk compatible: 19.0+ (not booting with any earlier version)
QuickStep compatible: no
Still can't find link to Running services, they really care to hide it. This activity Settings\com.android.settings.RunningServices gets overwritten by app info which counts size on disk but at least give backdoor to original app properties.

my SOT is easily above 10hours sadly i can't find a modern phone, with rootability, wireless charging, fingerprint not in the back. forget SD card, notches and tons of other requirements.. so this is a list:
https://www.gsmarena.com/results.php3?nRamMin=6000&chkWCharging=selected&idFingerprint=5
discount unrootable huawei, nokia and i'm literally stuck with just S10 and Mi9. it's so bad situation. S10 struggles with root yet as Samsung created yet another tricks. Soon rooting will be a hate speech and we'll be arrested
Thank you for looking into all this and writing it up here.
I was tempted to give MIUI a go temporarily since everything else is early stages right now, but I think I'll wait for the GSIs instead. And hey, "just buy another phone or willingly give up your privacy to megacorps and the government" is pretty great if you'd like to live in a dystopia at some point

@doggydog2 grow up.... Playing a game who has the largest....?? I was just saying with it the phone and software isn't that bad.
Buy a Pixel or OP
@xephyris
Ghehehe man man man..... Like you have privacy in 2019...wake up...
So giving all your **** to Google is no problem for you...?
Are you using miui.eu from (xiaomi.eu) or global rom EU version?
The op sounds like he came here to promote Oneplus for some reason.
(duplicit)
@xephyris thanks, GSI is strong already except the fingerprint not excellent. i'm watching git changes, literally reading the code, and can't wait for more fixes.. for an AOSP - not bad status already with fp,bluetooth,camera,aptx working. Let's talk about other device AOSPs with features missing.. GSI is generic but when devs actually own the device, the progress is far batter (FlokoRom being the best, now new TWRPs progressing).
@*justintime* don't understand what you blab about, i was just saying what is the situation. as you're long member, you should have remembered the golden times where all this stuff was easy and you could choose any mobile. and no "nonsense to fix in next generation" existed like notches or back fingerprints. also i'm giving little to Google, have zero ads, cleaned fingerprints of my internet activity, device data is cloaked etc to the extent i actually don't need to clean up Xiaomi processes. i do have privacy in 2019.. that's something i'm not even describing here as it's generic, here i fight the specific xiaomi bloat. when i sniff my network connections or trace personal data usage, i am satisfied. it's very clean.
@rasmali ..and not promoting, as i spend too much time to fix this Xiaomi, it's pretty hard from unlock process, TWRP problems, Gapps problems, battery issues, camera issues to the MIUI. Also tested all ROMs, kernels, recoveries so i'm sharing/getting the knowledge to make sure we all later profit. maybe i'll script the cleanup process from post #6. true the OnePlus is cool, i did just single flashing/restoring process there for me and one for another person, and it's perfectly working from A to Z.. it's shocking easy compared to Mi9. just lacking QC+Qi:/
Keep posting updates, as you im trying to find a solution for the Running services.

Introducing Xposed plugin "MIUI Anesthetist".
It will help disable the above ultra-sticky services which cannot be disabled (and we're not talking about normal system dialogs, we're disabing with root tools already).
However the author doesn't realise the spy company Xiaomi made 2 of them even more ultra-sticky: Miuidaemon, Xiaomi service framework.
The Xiaomi invented the way to load those even when disabled. As you can see in "Running services"* the processes are active.
*I'm kidding - you won't see it there as Xiaomi disabled this transparency tool, you need another root tool to check running processes.
So you still need to rename them in /system/[priv-]app folder.
Plus the FindDevice "disabled" with help of this plugin will make many error popups by another part of the system which tries to trigger it at all cost.
so it looked good first, as disabling would ultimately bring the convenience of setting and forgetting even during ROM updates.
That's not the case, so there's still maintenance needed as in the post 6.

cant wait, 3 more days to unlock bootloader
Can we have a list of all LTE and 5G band on the EU rom? I understand that some bands get unlocked with EU rom?
No, no bands get unlocked, the modem is not changed by the system firmware, it's a different part of the ROM I'm afraid. I would love to have band 20 opened but it looks like an hardware aerial issue or lack of it in this phone or the firmware in the modem itself.
The radio specs list of the phone remains the same as listed
Does Google exposure notifications work on eu rom?
Yes, see attached
Hi, where do I check when my bootloader gets unlocked?
On the miunlock tool. But make sure your account is fully 100% bonded to your account or the countdown won't start.
ASUS has officially released Android 13. Maybe it's good for the owners to share the experience.
This is what I read from the ASUS' support website:
ZenFone 8/8Z (ZS590KS) Android 13 software Image：WW-33.0210.0210.210 for WW/EU/RU/IN/TW SKUs
Version WW-33.0210.0210.210 3.2 GB 2023/01/13
Improved Item:
#Updated from previous Android 13 version:
1. Updated Android security patch to 2023-01-05
#Updated from Android 12:

2. Upgraded system to Android 13
3. Revamped Mobile Manager, Contacts, Phone, Emergency Dialer, File Manager, Calculator, Clock, Gallery, Weather, Sound recorder, Settings, Data Transfer, Local backup, and so on.
4. Adjusted Quick Settings panel, notification tray, and volume panel to Android 13 design
5. Added the notification permission feature. You can adjust the permission of each apps in the Apps & notifications Settings.
6. System clipboard added "Auto delete" and editor features
7. Added the QR code scanner option for the lock screen shortcut feature, and the Control from locked device feature in the Security & lock screen setting
8. According to Digital Wellbeing setting, system color scheme can be set to automatically switched by the bedtime option
9. Adjusted the Vibration & haptic strength setting, Display and font size setting, and the width/length of navigation white bar when choosing gesture navigation
10. Changed to the Blocked numbers setting in Phone to stock behavior. You will not receive calls or texts from blocked numbers.
11. Removed the Call duration setting
12. Replaced original Style settings to new Wallpaper & style settings - Remove shape option, support Themed icons, and the system color is reset to blue.
13. Added link quick share feature in ASUS Launcher
14. Added Asus customization preferences setting. Allows applying the collection of commonly used customization settings with one click.
15. Removed the ‘Calm’ and ‘Elegant’ options in the Power button menu style setting.
16. Adjusted the design of the dialpad and contacts details page in the Phone app to display information more clearly.
17. Some 3rd party apps are not compatible with Android 13 yet
18. Upgrade system modes to the latest version, including "High performance", "Dynamic", "Durable" and "Ultra durable." Game Genie is also upgraded to the latest version, to allow quick switching of system modes in games.
Im on beta at Version WW-33.0210.0210.180 and if they don't broke anythink i can recommend upgrade to A13. It works much better
Good to hear. Just want do double-check, the upgrade won't erase anything, right? I understand it's always recommended to perform a backup first.
The upgrade won't erase anything, don't worry
Yea, A13 work perflecty
Confirmed working on the EU variant.
Of this update, what I like most is the possibility to shrink the enormous quick tiles to smaller icons. But the first time you boot Android 13 it's hard to tell the difference from the previous version.
I also updated to this firmware. It's great. Much smoother and less bugs (so far). Also, the small quick setting tiles are back!
Does it have the edge tool / sidebar which we see in Zenfone 9?

No, it REC button shows the same as on A12.
No need to activate it differently.
Thanks. I had to downgrade because it doesn't show for me. I tried googling it, but Google has kinda sucked for about two years now. Are there any troubleshooting guides for this?

Update information
1.Updated Android security patch to 2023-05-01
