Searching for some days now, and ranting each time I have to use my phone. While I really love the phone itself, I can't get along with it's software.
The .eu ROM is no option. I read it is pretty difficult to make a ROM for it, but does anyone know if there is something in the making? I'd appreciate any kind of information regarding this.
AFAIK there are only Xiaomi EU and MIUImix
Why is there no sign of a custom rom?
Has someone an idea why there is no sign of a custom ROM? I mean the phone is for a longer time on the market, we have a working TWRP and its the top of MI 11 lineup... I would like too see custom ROMs because the original is full of annoying bugs.

Hello guys, I have a brand new mi9tpro with global rom and even though it works great, i cant stand all the google and mi bloatware so i wanted to flash another rom (miui or non miui)
The question is, do i lose something if a flash a custom rom? Let's say for example some quality on the camera or stuff like that.
I come from samsung where non samsung roms had to use generic drivers and thus the camera quality was horrible in comparison, and I dont want the same happening with this phone now, so i'd only flash a non miui based rom if the quality and functionalities remain exactly the same.
Thanks in advance!

My Mi 9T Pro is now under the latest beta from xiaomi.eu. Although it may be similar to stock ROM, I have frozen 69 apps (what you refer as google and bloatware).
I have tried a few smaller custom ROMs and most gave me bootloops probably because I did not install gapps. Why would I want to leave a nicely working xiaomi.eu beta ROM for something else which requires gapps and has more bugs ?
Miui.eu miui custom rom: No downsides.
AOSP based custom rom: Less battery life, instability, worse navigation gestures, most likely bootloops if you do something wrong.
Currently I'd stick to miui.eu until our device stops getting official updates. And even a year or so after that. I am a big fan of AOSP software, but it's just not as good for our device.
This all depends on personal preference and philosophy.
Some people prefer to follow the engineering prime directive: "if it ain't broke, don't fix it".
You do say the device is working great, so...
The other school follows the concept of: "if it ain't broke, tweak it until it is".
and you do say you can't stand it, so maybe you belong to the second group.
Then clearly a custom rom is the only alternative you have.
Some ROMs are pretty stable and contrary to the opinion of the previous comment, users report equal or better battery life.
The only 3 real complaints I have heard about are a. the fingerprint sensor performance (and even then reports vary widely), b. lack of OTA and problems with dirty flashing, and c. no android auto support.
Camera is same or better with ANX or Gcam.
True, the fact there were 4, now 3, different firmwares and SKUs greatly hurt and slowed down development and testing for this device, and also the timing with the release of Android10,
but some official releases exist and custom ROMs are slowly getting there.
If you really can't stand google, I recommend you to check out LineageOS or SyberiaOS with MicroG.
It will take fiddling, reading online and troubleshooting, but other than time it costs you nothing.
Worst case, you can always go back to Miui.
In another thread an XDA Recognized Developer has a PC program that makes it simple to disable MIUI and Google bloatware. You might want to try that before resorting to flashing a custom ROM.
Despite what people here say I've tried MIUI.EU on previous Xiaomi phones and always found even the supposedly stable builds to be buggy.
REV OS is a much more stable MIUI based ROM. Unlike MIUI.EU the devs for REV OS extensively test every build for bugs before releasing them to users.
I loved REV OS on my MI 9 but have stuck to stock MIUI on my MI 9T Pro so far. I did do some debloating using the program I mentioned.

If you are new to Xiaomi you should read up on the bootloader unlock process which seems to drive many people crazy.
>Disadvantages of flashing custom rom?
Flashing drivers manually is a major pain in the ass for me. These days OTA from custom ROMs are seemless and automatic. Otherwise it used to be another major problem with it. Another problem might be you might brick your phone. Another major problem is that none of the custom ROMs for this device are perfect and bug free. I am only sticking with MIUI for this specific reason.

I've installed REV Os and it seems a good rom like miui.eu or mi globe or mmx.
No bug with miui stock or custom.
Are you ok to build a rom section in this forum with REV Os?

I agree, Revos is a very good stable MIUI ROM. Never found an issue with it, and there default kernel is good (on Pocophone F1).

I don't think the devs of REV OS want their ROM on XDA. Many devs soured on XDA and stopped maintaining ROM threads here.
At this point most of the ROMs on XDA are either unofficial or are threads that aren't created, maintained or supported by the Devs actually responsible for the ROMs.
And part of the user agreement for most ROMs that maintain their own website is that you are forbidden from creating any external links for those ROMs.
Hey, so first of all sorry for making a long post and I might repeat things for which there may be threads so sorry in advance regarding that, so moving on ,I just bought k20 Pro, while miui is awesome , I'm thinking of switching rom, but can't do it rn as I'll be traveling soon and don't want to risk bricking my phone, I'll do it asap after I return (in 1 week) so my questions are:
1) How to unlock bootloader?
2) How to flash recovery ? And which one , I've always used TWRP on earlier device, but some ppl I see here say Orangefox.
3)I know how to flash a ROM, but what is the vendor everyone keeps telling to flash and should that be flashed everytime installing new rom?
4) Do you lose support for hd in prime and Netflix after flashing rom? If yes how to bring it back (if possible ).
5) ROM recommendation! I've used Lineage os on my previous device, so close it would be good, recommend something which is stable and fast , I don't use much customisation, and should be close to stock Android, as less bugs as possible.
6) Anything I need to know about the device? Something which will help me in future.
Note:i I've upgraded to Miui 12 so please try base answers on that version. I have Indian version of phone.
Thank you to the folks reading this and answering!!

Here's a guide to unlocking the bootloader. This is from the official MIUI global forums.
https://c.mi.com/thread-2262302-1-0.html
Stick with TWRP. Get it from here
https://forum.xda-developers.com/k2...icial-twrp-xiaomi-redmi-t3944363/post79823568 get the latest version. Orange Fox is a good choice of you stick with MIUI or a MIUI based custom ROM. Otherwise TWRP is the better option. Flashing instructions are there. You shouldn't need to flash the vbmeta patcher.
Check out my guide here, read the thread as some of your questions are answered there including a basic overview of vendor and firmware.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/k20-pro/how-to/simple-guide-flipkart-owners-t4151007/post83329343
If you are used to LOS, then you may as well stick with that. It's as stable as any ROM for this phone.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/k20-pro/development/rom-lineageos-17-0-t3976469/post80406191
If you stick with Indian firmware and vendor, you should keep widevine L1.
If you get in a mess, follow this guide from the official MIUI forums to restore the phone with a fastboot ROM.

You will need to view this page in desktop mode, if viewing on a mobile.

Hello everyone I would like to ask a few questions and know your opinion on the different stock versions of the redmi note 10 pro which one would advise me. which would be the most stable with the fewest bugs. I ask you this because I am afraid to reinstall twrp having already bricked my phone once. I had to go through unbrick.ru it's expensive for a simple unlocking I want to say
Indonesian version with long temporary update and stable, but now i stick with miui Pulse.
As long as you thoroughly follow a up-to-date, precise guide on how to flash TWRP and then flash a new ROM, you should be good. Just don't do something tricky with your phone if you have a doubt and that you don't know. Stock MIUI ROMs are, in my opinion, not as good as Xiaomi.eu ROMs or AOSP based ROMs. You'll have to debloat everything, there'll be ads in system apps and less features (depends on the region). Really, you should try flashing TWRP and use Xiaomi.eu. Moreover, a "brick" can in most cases be solved because, if a ROM flash doesn't work as it should, or even something else, you still have your TWRP to fix your phone.
(of course, don't do it if you know you're not attentive enough and that you won't be following guides steps minutely)

MIUI 12.5.1 is great in my point of view and very easy to operate.
Hi all
I think after the bad MIUI 13 update , it is clear that we will not be able to use the full potential of the hardware without any bugs .
So I hope that we will be able to flash a custom Rom soon .
For me ColorOS will be very good
Please share your opinion .
I share your frustration with MIUI and am also patiently waiting for anything.
I have tried a few GSI roms without successfully booting, now I'm on xiaomi.eu rom and the frustration is making me think about switching to my old phone with PixelExperience on it. The experience is way smoother.
I would be happy with AOSP though since it's a nice starting point for any ROM development/porting. I wonder if someone is already working on it.
amen to that. anything but this chinese bull****. hope something good comes out soon

xiaomi.eu miui13.0.4 is the best for MI 11t pro. u dont even need twrp just unlocked bootloader. the bat file will flash itself. its based on global but its way ahead. less rom usage, no ads, less storage usage , custom dialer and boot mode, can use themes from outside and a lot more. i m using it now on my 11t pro. u wont find anything better i bet.

Really are you sure?
Hi guys,
actually, I´m trying to bring my Mi9 back to life with a new battery. Since now, I´m on xiaomi.eu 12.5.6.
In order to keep my Mi9 updated, I tried to figure out, which Custom ROM I´d go for. Criteria are every day use (stability, battery lifetime, smoothness, security updates). Conclusion after reading the threads is that most official 11.0 ROMs do very well (for example crDroid, Havoc, …). Since twrp still doesn´t support encryption, I´d go for 11.0.
Another point is a good cam out of the box (using all lenses and features and compareable to stock quality). Or do I need to install gcam to reach this goal?
Thx in advance for suggestions, I know the question for „best ROM“ is pretty much too simple, but I´d like to get a starting point…
how did you get xiaomi.eu 12.5.6? I saw only chinese
