What is the actual need of installing a custom ROM for a MI Note Pro device outside of China for a basic user. Does the original ROM provided by Xiaomi not stable one, I believe the Google services can be installed in the original ROM itself. Does the inbuilt ROM not support English within MIUI skin.
Appreciate the feedback
Regards,
Nibin
I have been using the original rom since last August and managed to install all Google services. So far very stable and have not experienced anything wrong. It does support English.
So I don't see any reason you must use a custom rom, but because android is an open platform and the fun part is to modify things to make it more "you" so people like to have options to install custom rom.
That's my 2 cents, and yes, I am Chinese and I do have other xiaomi devices so I don't mind the Chinese apps, xiaomi accounts, etc that pre-installed on the device. If I were a nonchinese user, I would probably just move those in a folder called "not used" and forget about them.
I use the Chinese rom and yes it does support English and works really well the only thing with modified rom you will get is probably improved GPS and thats about it

UK too, I had GPS problems like once but the reason for that was miui update. So instead of downgrading I installed a modded rom and it fixed it

Hi Mr. Kahun
I see you are an experienced user of Mi Note Pro
I have received my Mi Note Pro for few days.
I dont have root and I can not install TWRP on my phone due to the phone had been upgraded to 7.1.5 and 6.1.29 before I got this phone
I researched some forum that 6.1.7 can be rooted. I managed to install on 6.1.7 Chinese Dev Rom via Updater. But it does not root
Can you share me something that I can root my phone
Thank you

Hi,
I just got my Mi Pad 4 plus today.
Unfortunately there is no Google play store installed and there does not seem to be any way to change the language settings beyond Chinese, Indian and English so far.
I know it is a fairly new product, but is there already some kind of global/international rom?
PS: I saw an article somewhere that it should be able to display Netflix in 1080p. Will that change with an open Bootloader or the use of a global rom?
Best regards
Chris

Greetings,
As far as I'm concerned there is no official Global ROM for the Mi Pad 4 Plus.
But, you should ask on the Mi Pad 4 Plus Forum here, since Forum is only for Mi Pad 4.

Ty, I already flagged my Thread for moving, haven't seen the Thread for the Mi Pad 4 Plus.
Actually it will receive the global rom! I was looking for answers and read that the mi pad 4 and 4 plus share the same ROM. So in my opinion I will try to flash the global variant of the mi pad 4.
Global rom / flash / warranty

Have you got any sources, that it will receive the global rom?
I am kind of nervous flashing the mipad 4 global ROM. Since the Mi pad 4 Plus would be a gift, i don't want to lose its warranty claim.
while waiting for the official global ROM, you can just side load apps to have Google services run on your Mi pad 4 plus.
and side-loading google apps will not terminate your warranty, since it doesn't require you to unlock bootloader or root
im planning to buy one but have read it does not support hd in streaming services such as netflix.. is there any way that it could be fixed by installing a global rom or something? kinda disappointing tbh

Sure, I already did that since I need the Google Playstore. But I prefer my OS in other languages than English for my daily use..

The rom for the Mi Pad 4 Plus is the same as Mi Pad 4
Xiaomi.eu made a global rom
I'll try that as soon as they are willing to let me unlock my device. Not my first from Xiaomi but having to wait 30 days seems to be new...

Netflix does work. However you cannot install it from the playstore. But if you download the APK from Netflix all works fine

@Edwin184 but it does not support hd right?
@jupcan,
Don't know how I can check for sure. However I have a standard HD account and if I play in Ultra HD it seems to work fine.
Now I'm running the MIUI 10 Global Beta and sometimes its buggy with the power management for however reason and when I return to the homescreen from watching streams in Amazon prime, netflix and so on.. For sure these are not critical problems and its useable as a daily driver. ??
It's unlocked and rooted with magisk, there are no issues with the fingerprint or faceunlock. And I frosted some draining and anoying applications.
Thanks to the site I found the MIUI 10 rom, TWRP, magisk and the flash Guide. God bless you xiaomi.eu ??

How come?.. if you unlock your device its going to lose its warranty anyway.

If you don't mind, can you please share the resources you read/used to root your device? I just received mine and am looking forward to rooting it but I can't find any detailed guide for the 4 plus

Is Mi Pad 4 Plus use the same method like Mi Pad 4 to install TWRP, MIUI10 rom etc... ?

As you can read in the thread - yes.
Interestingly enough...I just got the 4 Plus from an Chinese eBay seller. Great! I started it up. I booted right to the lock screen (no password/lock on it), a quick swipe and it opened up and was running. Hmmmmm.... And it's running MIUI 10.1.1.0 (ODJCNFI). It looks like the box was opened up as there's no security tape at all on it, and then updated and put on a shelf until I bought it.
Looks like tonight I get to see if https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-pad-4-plus/how-to/guide-mi-pad-4-plus-lineageos-15-1-t3893264 will work for me =D
I am interested in getting a Mi 11 Ultra, just wanted to know if this would still be a good choice now in Feb 2022. Seems like I can only get my hands on a CN version with Global Rom loaded. I will be using it in Canada. The 5G bands don't really matter to me, as long as the LTE is working I'm ok. However, I have concerns that not all features may work, such as google pay, which i use very frequently. Can anyone confirm whether or not the CN version vs the global version is the same, and whether these features will work for me in Canada?

I'm in the US using the Mi11 ultra with the Xiaomi EU ROM on the ATT network that I flashed over the Global ROM. I use Google Pay and all the apps I have used on non import phones. The Global ROM was less usable for me, for instance I couldn't sync my galaxy watch with the phone. I believe I got Google Pay working with the Global ROM but I had far more failed transactions. In short I have found this phone to deliver what I want with the eu.rom.
i am using the global rom on t-mobile in boston. after rooting everything works fine including google pay
great, i've also read that the EU rom is more usable than the global one. I may jump on it and root it as well as use the EU one.
I'm running China version with EU weekly Rom on t-mobile rooted. Everything is flawless

Global rom is better for daily use than xiaomi.eu rom
If u want to use gpay or some banking app that check phone's unlock status, just root it with magisk and use safetynet fix module

u should read it https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/is-installing-xiaomi-eu-rom-on-global-model-worth-it.4272425/
I have a Mi 11 Ultra CN version unlocked and flashed to .EU ROM. It has worked great, and supports NFC payments and Netflix Widevine L1. I am not rooted, but I have heard plenty of times that you can root just fine and use a root hider (safetynet fix) from the payments apps to retain NFC payment capability.
I Just got mine a week ago and switched to ATT but am una le to activate the sim card and am getting no service. Anything special I need to do? Thanks for the help.
Working great with Bell as well as Fido. Have used Google pay in past , was working fine (only used bcoz applied for replacement card, not a gpay fan). Using EU ROM. I got it from pdaplaza when it released so i got CN version.
Even today in my opinion its good for buying as i like its rearview screen. Using from more than 1 year and Satisfied with its performance.
Hi, does anyone know how to make V4A function properly on Xiaomi 12 Pro? I am on xiaomieu and rooted already. No matter how I tried it still doesn't work as it should.
I think you should flash Audio Compatibility patches too. Magisk modules available for that

Hello, how did you manage to root?
I'm also interested in that. Twrp Without it, there is no solution
right now i have redmi 9 lava (3/32) and seeing the new redmi 9 lancelot official rom i wonder if it will work on my phone without problems. Has anyone tried it?
I have the 4Gb RAM version and LOS 20 works fine although its using up to 2.8Gb RAM. Personally I wouldn't run Android 13 aka LOS 20 on a 3Gb RAM phone. I actually wish I got the 6Gb RAM version.

I currently have the pixel experience rom installed and it definitely runs much better than stock. You didn't encounter any problem with the installation, did you? Also if you have any problem I would like to hear it. Thank you very much my friend for the reply!
In addition, updates are done normally?
Yes there is weekly OTA updates. Also yes LOS 20 runs much better than stock, faster and uses less ram, on stock miui 13 Android 12 I couldn't even run two apps at the same time such as Outlook and Chrome. As for installation you need MIUI 13 Android 12, the latest stock rom, otherwise LOS 20 won't work, I believe it will bootloop. I just followed the instructions on LOS website, didn't have any problem.
Also I used the default LOS recovery instead of TWRP as TWRP isn't updated anymore and I wasn't sure if it will work. You need to unlock bootloader using Xiaomi app or a script from here Xda if you don't want to wait several days for the Xiaomi app unlock as there is a waiting timer, idk why Xiaomi did this.
you have me completely covered. I have done this process many times and know what to do, thanks for the advice anyway. You sure have the "lava" version right? Because you mentioned above that you wanted to buy the version with the 6gb ram which is only available in the Lancelot version and I would like to be sure

ok thank you again.
With a little research I had done, I believed that the LOS rom was not exactly designed for my phone but for another version (there are roms that say it's for the lava version and roms that say it's for the Lancelot version). I'll try to install it soon and hopefully I won't have any problems. Thank you very much

In cpuz under model it says Lineage_lancelot.
okay okay anyway thank you very much for your help
