Hey everyone!
My grandparents use a Mi A2 as their daily driver and since software support from Xiaomi stopped I wanted to ask
which custom rom is best suited for what I'm looking for. I'm looking for a rom with inbuilt gapps, updater in settings
and (optional but prefered) preinstalled camera app that's not the snapdragon camera.
thank you in advance

Hello, I am currently running the global stable miui 8.1.4.0 on my mi5 and have gotten tired with Xiaomi not being able to make a good, stable rom for the mi5 so I have decided that I will flash a custom rom. Last time I rooted my phone was back when everybody used clockworkmod recovery so some things have changed.
1. My first question is which is the most stable rom for mi5. I don't care about android version or features I just want everything to work as well as possible.
2. Secondly, if I flash a custom rom will I pass safteynet if I have magisk installed?
3. What twrp should I use? I have heard about one called coffee which seems to be popular. or should I use some other?
4. How is the camera quality in custom ROMs compared to the stock rom(I will install the google camera when flashing the rom)
Thanks in advance!
Hi all,
First up, I have been running 3rd party ROMs on my old Sony Z2 for years (TWRP with Cyanogen then LineageOS).
So i'm semi-experienced with running other ROMs.
I have a Mi 9 global currently running the latest stable official Global MIUI.
The bloat and calling-home by the Xiaomi stock apps is ridiculous, so want off ASAP.
Ideally I'm after a very lightweight, stripped down version of Android with OpenGApps Pico (or equiv).
All hardware working would be a bonus (losing IR and NFC isnt a deal-breaker. Need BT working though).
So what would you guys recommend I run?
Thanks in advance
xiaomi.eu
I bought my mi 9 before 1 week and yesterday I unlocked the bootloader and installed Xiaomi eu , I'm very happy with it and i got 9h of Screen Time on.
I'm in same position as the OP. Waiting 6 more days before I can unlock and also keeping a close eye on the stability of Pixel Experience rom. Currently using it on a Samsung S7 so that will be my first choice.
Xiaomi.eu or Revolution OS are both great Miui roms.
Pixel Experience isn't stable enough for you I guess. But in future it will.
hello friends I have a problem when I unlock my 9 install the twrp that says on the page xiaomi.eu and I liked the rom and wanting to update to 9.6.13 try to enter the twrp and I can not appear the black screen and restart to the rom that I currently have from xiaomi.eu 9.6.5 someone can help me.

I replied to your other post.
Revolution OS > xiaomi.eu (if you don't like constant Softwareupdates - in case you debloat one of those & install magisk mods).
I don't say xiaomi.eu is bad, but I'd prefere to not update my smartphone unnecessarily ("never thouch a running system").

Try Globe Rom, it can be customized by you. You'll like it ?
Do xiaomi.eu and revolution os have widevine l1?
Hi, guys.
I would like to change my Mi 9t pro from MIUI 11 to any custom ROM, because I'm looking for a ROM that gives me a better SOT and performance than stock MIUI 11.
What's the best stable ROM that I can find?
Ps: How can I keep the MIUI stock camera app in any custom ROM, or if it's included in some ROM (with no bugs, if it's possible), Wich ROM would you recommend me?
Thank you all.

I've been using EvoX for quite some time, have been enjoying it. It covers all the concerns that you've mentioned.

-MIUI will give you the best SOT. It has more aggressive battery optimizations.
-I can vouch for EvoX. There have been regular updates, it has the most user-friendly features, but the developer has taken a leave yesterday so the development in the next month or so maybe a little slow. Other option is Lineage.. It also has similar development.
-No rom will be as stable as MIUI. Fingerprint will be slightly slower on the roms.
-There will be minor bugs.
-For the MIUI camera, you can flash ANX Camera.
Hope i helped!
Asoip and extended ui rom are very smooth roms which i could recommend and are regularly updated. Also in Asoip rom it has the option of FP unlock with the screen off which is only in this rom i believe.
Unofficial Havoc 3.2 is the best AOSP 10 ROM I've used so far.
Install ANX Cam for stock camera experience on custom ROMs
TOP AOSP (popular): EvoX, derpfest, aosip.
TOP MIUI (popular): EU-LS, masik, miroom.

For best SOT , Miui is great.
There is a Flashable zip for stock camera in the Official Channel on Telegram.
And yes, some roms has fast fingerprint speed but some are slow as written in the comment above.
I like miui for its features, and its obviously most stable.
If you want customization with MIUI then use MIUIPro or MiGlobal Roms they have same performance with more features and customizations.

I love Evolution X Rom too but on my Redmi K20Pro, there is a Video playback issue where you play a video and it freezes for a couple of seconds frequently. Did you happen to experience this?
Hey there hello
So I've been playing around with custom roms for a 1.5 year. I think I have enough experience and now I'm starting to get interested in mods and ports
Idk much about that and I just want to start asking how do I install the Xiaomi stock camera app in my Redmi Note 10 Pro with a custom ROM installed on it.
Also if anyone can explain me what does been "ported" mean thanks

May a ROM developer can help you.
But it's really difficult to get MIUI cam working in non MIUI Roms.....

Ported/Porting/Ports means a specific software that only works on selected devices and giving it support to work for other devices.
In the case of your question, Xiaomi Cam, or MIUI Cam, is the default camera application for Xiaomi devices tunes by Xiaomi themselves and only works for Xiaomi devices, with specific features for each devices.
ANX Camera is the port of MIUI Camera that works for Custom ROM and some non-miui based OS. ANX is a Magisk Module too meaning you'll have to root your phone to install systemlessly. Link to the download:
ANXCamera by AEonAX
Download latest ANXCamera, A Miui Camera Port for Xiaomi's Devices, Install via Magisk or TWRP

I recommend you to use v204 even though it's an alpha release to get the closest camera quality similar to stock. If that doesn't work, try the stable release which are 190R or 185R.
Hey guys,
i bought last week my Mi 11 Ultra and waiting till the countdown is over for unlocking the bootloader.
I still dont know which ROM i should use and thats why i want to ask you which one you prefer.
For me privacy is important and thats why i use till now lineage on my phone and also changed a few settings in lineage so it doesnt call any google stuff (for example wifi captive portal)
And i DONT need any google services - MicroG does all i need.
Of course i would prefer a ROM which use the full power of the Mi 11 Ultra camera but as far as i know just the unoffical Pixel Experience ROM has an port of the MIUI Cam.
But the xiaomi.eu ROM + Pixel ROM get both delivered with Google Services thats why i dont want to use them.
And i am not sure if i can trust the original chinese ROM.
So for the moment i prefer lineage or crDroid but both dont support the back display and for good photos i have to install Gcam Port cause those Roms doesnt have a port of the originally MIUI ROM.
But i am sure some of you guys also care about your privacy so please let me know which ROM are you using
Thank you
I had the same dillema and eventually stayed with debloated china rom. It's google services are somehow limited heavily (it's different than global) and i can limit them more on firewall/dns.
Everything works for me, which is different than when using microg.
For example i never managed to get banking apps to run without issue on migrog - which is quite important for me.
xiaomi.eu includes gapps, so it's a NO for me. It's easier to remove gapps from china than from EU.
