Hi! i am very new to the xiaomi community. i have just bought a pre-owned xiaomi mi 9.
it was shipped to me via POST mail, when i opened the phone it is a xiaomi mi 9 chinese version. :crying:
i want to flash a new rom on it, and currently i am torn between the three roms.
i just want to know your opinions on these three roms in all aspects (battery life, performance, gaming etc...)
1. miui eu
2. global rom
3. RevOS
***i have seen the miui eu vs RevOS (here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/Mi-9/help/revolution-os-vs-xiaomi-eu-one-recommend-t3934804) but i want to know how they are versus each other and the global rom.
how are the updates on these roms (miui eu, miui global, and revos) delivered? do i need to reflash every time? or i can just update just like a regular stock miui chinese rom? (a.k.a. by going to the settings and clicking the update button there and rebooting)
thank you. :angel::angel:
Xioami eu is the most supported rom concerning updates

how is miui eu compared to the global rom?
are there lags? or bugs? problems? can yu give me a short help please
Hello. xiaomi.eu rom is based on the beta or stable rom of china. she's stable for everyday use. it benefits from news before the global. the beta rom is translated into several languages and updated every Friday. I use it now and I prefer it overall, it is much smoother. on the other hand it is necessary the bootloader to unlock.

that is for when i am flashing the rom newly,
i am asking about when i update.
I was on global rom and battery was very bad, but beem a week on revos its very clean amd good battery.
I recommend RevOs.
I have the Global EU (NOT xiaomi.eu) and i have good battery life (over night max battery drain of 5%), its buttery smooth and no bugs. Its official by Xiaomi but i heard updates are not as frequent as the China Global. Also since Global EU is stock you can just flash that over without unlocking bootloader if i am correct. The XiaoMiTool V2 somewhere here in the forum could be helpful for you if you want to stay stock and dont want to unlock your bootloader.
Edit: Also the Global EU has Widevine L1 which you need for Netflix HD. Dont know if the pther ROMs have that.

i am looking at the miui eu because it has all the features that miui global have but better. so does rev os also have that?

I don't have any ads then. Seems the Global EU doesn't have all this Chinese preloaded apps. It has some xiaomi apps which can't be deleted, but otherwise I never had any problems. I was thinking of getting the xiaomi.eu so I can have notifications visible all the time and not just when they are incoming but that's all. I guess soon xiaomi will release an update for the global eu which will add this functionality back. Honestly this Rom is already so much superior than any other Phone I used and I think I can wait a couple of months for updates instead of having to deal with bugs and updates every two weeks with the xiaomi.eu
I own the Mi 11 with CN ROM and have been using it in North America. I'm thinking of flashing a different ROM to see if it will be a better experience. Has anyone in my situation flashed both the Global ROM and Xiaomi.eu ROM and can give an opinion on which is better overall? I'd be interested in things like speed, battery life, Play services compatability etc.
Thanks in advance!
It basically boils down to privacy vs latest updates.
Xiaomi will phone home as much as you let it, I think the EU rom is supposed to fix that but updates take a little longer.

If you want more features use the Chinese EU ROM. Speed, battery etc will be the same.

Global is different to the Xiaomi EU one but many wrongly call the EU one global.
Xiaomi EU is based on the Chinese ROM.
Global is for outside China and has less features than Chinese and Xiaomi EU ROM.

I knew that the Global ROM (developed by Xiaomi) is meant for phones outside of China. I also understood that the Xiaomi.eu ROM is created by developers and is different (but based on) the Chinese stock ROM that shipped with the phone. I think you confused me by saying the "Chinese EU ROM" instead of "Xiaomi.eu" ROM which is what I usually see people say.
What I don't like about the Chinese stock ROM for Chinese users is that it doesn't seem to fully support all Google services and the implementation of Android 11 isn't complete (for example I don't see the Nearby Share feature).
What features does the Global ROM (created by Xiaomi for international users) lack that the Chinese ROM has? I think that as long as the Global ROM supports Google services fully I would be happy with it. If not then I guess I would flash the Xiaomi.eu ROM but it would be annoying to have to apply all updates manually.

Can't actually remember most of them but there was a few. A lot of the AI options like app pre loading etc
Xiaomi also confirmed the global Miui 12.5 update will be a "lite" version of the Chinese Miui so software will be more basic.
When I had the Mi 10 the EU version worked better than the global one with Google and notifications in general. Might of sorted that with next month's release.

Ok. Thanks for the info
I have CN ROM and had to tweak it like crazy to get rid of the China stuff and to get notifications to work. Turned off the battery saver for every app I needed notifications and enabled every option.
Now with EU ROM I didn't have to do anything like that, and have the google feed on the left. Everything is perfect with EU - well recommended.
Excuse me for jump in...I want to by Mi 11 Pro. I want Google Play, Google pay, banking aps, Netflix to work. Shell I stay on Chinese Rom or put Xiaomi.eu Rom? I am from Europe. Thanks!

I have already tried the latest stable MIUI14 from xiaomi.eu and it seemed quite alright
But I had one problem - which was rather annoying
I couldn't get my banking app to install properly. And I believe that is because the bootloader is unlocked. But my device was original CN, which I then flashed to xiaomi.eu (and locking the bootloader after that, is not recommended!)
So my question here is - if I install the Global ROM instead (which is xiaomi official, in contrary to the xiaomi.eu ROM), will I be able to lock the bootloader after flashing?

The EU ROM doesn't need to lock bootloader.
The EU ROM looks have a issue relate Google Backup.
Does anyone have the same issue?
New - Google Drive backup bug? Backup gone after reboot [updated]
[updated description below because it seems like backups dissappear after reboot] Not sure if this is from ROM or the Google Drive app. After a day or two my Google backup of my phone dissappears. Even though done successfully before and also shown in Google Drive, it dissappears after a day...
xiaomi.eu
One good reason to move to EU rom: it fixed stuff where China Rom doesn't!
For example, in China/Global ROM miui14.0.12 the AOD display will always turn itself off if it lay on a dark room for around 10 minutes. And turning off Bluetooth from android top down menu will turn off 24 hours only and not forever.
In Miui EU, this they fixed it by making it on always. Same goes to Bluetooth turning off when pressed from top drop down menu.
And many other translation jitter you can notice in China Rom if you were to restart your phone. For instance, calendar will show 1 second of Chinese before becoming english.
Hey,
So after being impressed for almost a year with the mi 10 ultra, I got myself the 11 Ultra yesterday. Bought in the Netherlands.
Immediately there was an update to 12.5.3 and installed and transfered everything.
After reading here I really thought I was gonna get the same hassle (bugs) and the need to install the EU custom ROM.
But after about 24 hours of use I noticed.
0 bugs
0 annoyances
The phone doesn't really get hot. Except maybe when I play league of legends on 120fps and 2k screen.
No notification bugs, battery seems decent. Camera amazing..
Anyone else just having a great experience? I don't think I see the need to flash the custom ROM.
I know the list of featured if the custom ROM seems long but I haven't noticed anything different from my 10 ultra custom EU rom.
hi this is how much i understand worth taking global eee rom mi 11 ultra or maybe better take mi 11pro?
I would take the mi 11 ultra over any phone.. and the global rom is pretty good
Original 12.5.3 EEA has some problems:
date on the rear display is shown as mm/dd even if the locale setting is dd/mm.
The date is correct in all the other parts of the UI (ex the lock screen)
Bluetooth smart unlock works only with Mi Bands. Doesn't work even with Mi Watch Lite and Xiaomi Handset Basic that I own.
Of course it doesn't work with any no-Xiaomi-made bluetooth devices (quite annoying indeed)
The Google dialer (the Xiaomi dialer is no longer available) has no call recording function.
Can't hide folders from the Gallery using the .nomedia file.
I got the mi 11 ultra 3 days ago and I'm on 12.0.5 . No new updates found .. even if I change my region to India for example no luck !
I'm in Germany. Any suggestions?

Love making selfies with the main camera using the little screen. Selfies look amazing like a whole different league from front facing selfies.
Also regular pictures I love how the look. So colorful.
The phone feels snappy fast and I haven't noticed any bugs. I have the feeling it works better than the custom EU rom i had on my.mi 10 ultra.
The only thing maybe is that the battery drains a bit faster but maybe it will still learn to work better and I do play a lot of league of legends wild rift at 2k so I guess it's normal

If your bootloader is unlocked, you can load the fastboot EEA (European version). Just download the Xiaomi MiFlash tool. There are plenty of YouTube videos describing the process. There is also the Xiaomi.EU rom, which is the China rom, minus the Chinese bloat and Google services added in. That is a TWRP install and that is also link on their website.
I don't recommend to install the Xiaomi eu rom as it is not optimized for mi 11 ultra, apps load slower and since it is based on chinese rom it has chinese themes (if you like ur writings in chinese go for it), battery life is more or less the same, if you need to root I still suggest unlock your bootloader, if coming from standard global, unlocking your bootloader will allow you to update to the EEA firmware which is already based on the 12.5.3

It is optimized as it virtually the same rom as the China rom, minus the bloat and Google services added in. There are features not available in the EEA rom that are in the China rom or the EU rom, such as, video recording using the rear display on 21.6.9 or the ability to record your calls, which is also not available on the EEA rom. These features are not available on the global rom either. So if you are a vlogger/content creator, the Xiaomi.eu rom is probably your best option.

Hi there,
Unlock Bootloader and go to EEA 12.5.3 or higher. 12.0.XX is a pretty basic Android 11 ROM but many people like it. EEA visually looks better and so far no issues.
I had for a moment Android 12 Beta 1 installed but has returned to 12.5.3 because camera apps was missing.
Regards

Same here on both 10 and 11 Ultra, no Chinese. Also, how is it not optimised for the 11 ultra when it is based on the stock Chinese 11 Ultra ROM? App loading time can be many of many reasons including your own apps you install from your own selection.
I have used the stock Chinese and Global ROMs on both Ultra's and my preference is for the EU custom ROM, I just think it has the best of all four available ROMs included and even as I use the weekly beta version, there has never been any show stoppers and any minor issues, as it is a beta version, get fixed quick. If you use a stable non EU version, you would have to wait for a few weeks to get it fixed and even longer with Global and EEA as their updates are packaged up in much fewer updates.
But it's everyone's own choice, but this is mine.
Guys whatsapp was loading ****ty slow, as well as tapatalk, I had 3 apps installed as personal, chinese themes lead to chinese characters, yes rom had some nice feature,but nothing I can't live without, both rom can be debloated and I find xiaomi eu full of useless stuff as well.

What's useless in Eu ROM ?
Lot of xiaomi services for example, I never understand why custom roms come with so much stuff preinstalled, they should leave just basic services and leave the user the ability to install the app and services they want. If they want to keep services and stuff they could still make different versions of the same rom
Hi, I have a 11 ultra Chinese version, after waiting 7 days to unlock and all of bugging twrp installation, I finished to put stable xiaomi.eu Rom on it. But somehow I find that eu rom now have a lot of small bugs.
Don't know that should keep it or go to global rom?
Xiaomi EU is overstimated, it may be good for west people who wants a debloated and translated china rom with Google services,but Global Rom is much better and also is faster

I didn't try myself the China ROM but I read it is more performing than the Xiaomi EU as well as Global and EEA stock ROMs
When I got my Mi 11 Ultra I started the process to unlock it right away since it uses the Chinese rom. However, by the time it was ready to be unlocked I decided it wasn't worth the hassle. The Chinese rom with the Google playstore installed does everything I need it to do. I don't really see any reason to change to the global or eu rom so far.

The Global Indian (IN) ROM is smaller in size as compared to the Global (IM) ROM and they are pretty much identical.
The IN ROM though has the Red Dot notification light displayed in the Rear Display when there is any notification.

Edit:
So this option is available in the Global MI Rom but you may also have to enable another setting which might not be 'enabled' by default.
Notification Access > Rear Display > Allow Notification Access
A regular notification option is available but it is pretty limited. I think it is for Spotify integration (music control) and Answering the Phone.

Quite content with the Global MI ROM
By IN ROM you mean Indian? Because the standard Global is easily rootable
Chinese rom is the best one. 120Hz everywhere.
Latest patches latest updates but no Ok google and no android auto. (At least in old versions of software)
I didn’t like global rom because many apps including YouTube is not working at 120hz.
Obviously China ROM is more updated and more refined,

1. MiUi dialler & Contacts - Didn't like it. Prefer Google
2. MiUi power down screen - Didn't like it. Still prefer Global ROM screen.
3. Google Assistant didn't work from lockscreen. It has to be running in the background for it to work from lockscreen (fingerprint protected)
The CN ROM does have some extra neat animations (like Battery Charging animations) which I would look to have. But I can do without it.
In Global MI ROM, Google Assistant is a system app I guess. So it's in the background by default? It works well from lockscreen.
Red dot notification in rear display works on Global MI ROM but doesn't work on the CN ROM. The Xiaomi.eu's (CN) ROM.

IN ROM latest fastboot ROM is v12.0.2.0 and then OTA update to v12.5.2.0.
I didn't know if I would lose root so I thought Global MI ROM is better. Lot more fastboot ROM releases and perhaps some added features looking at the version number and size of the MI fastboot Rom.

Xiaomi.eu all day. Faster updates, more tweaks and features over both stock CN and global. I immediately went Xiaomi.eu and haven't looked back.
please read what happened to me and i dont know how to solve it -
mi 11 pro .
a week ago i upgreade my "eu rom stable" and suddenly today im facing a strange problems:
"the facebook,telegram,whatsapp-are not opening"
im getting a phone calls and sms , but when im clicking on those apps , they just dont open .
i tried to uninstall them and to install them from the begininig , but nothing .
i didnt touch any settings on the phone , its just surprised me and i dont know what to do .
i entered my twrp recovery and im in the twrp i saw unusuall red raws with mention to these 3 apps , i dont know what is the meaning and i cant photo it
when you have so a lot of problems with the phone the best is FORMAT DATA and make a fresh Install
On one hand it looks like EEA has finally catched up with most of the missing features from Xiaomi.eu/China(see PS) and you're also getting Android 13, easy OTAs, ability to lock the bootloader and a whole bunch of optimization and new features from MIUI 14. And a bigger support community since it's the official ROM after all. And access to even more BETAs since Xiaomi.eu doesn't do betas on this device
On the other hand, all of this will come to xiaomi.eu when the stable's out anyway. And it will probably be even better than stock. And there still might be a few missing Chinese features that will never be added to EEA/Global.
It's really mixed for me tbh. What do you guys think ? What are you going to do ?
PS: I know there's no China ROM for 11T Pro, but Xiaomi.eu actually ports Chinese features even without the Chinese ROM.

Better time to stay on the Xiaomi EU rom and keep the advantages that do not exist on the stock (call recorder, Full themes, etc.).
On a stock beta version you can have bugs, sometimes not too serious or sometimes you will have to downgrade.
When it comes to stock ROM support, you will only get answers if you want to buy a new phone.
I had the 11 t pro but disappointed with the autonomy and I replaced it with a 12 pro which initially had less autonomy than the 11 t pro with A12 but A13 corrected this problem.

I'm getting around 6h SOT on my device...which I also think it's kinda mediocre. What about you ?
What if A13 fixes battery on 11T Pro as well.
AS for tech support, I guess the stock has a bigger community where I can find the issues easier. But the xiaomi.eu community is much nerdier, so it depends lol

My SOT is never the same, what I see is that since A13 I charge my phone less often and I've gone from 24 hours to 30/36 hours.
Many report the improvement in autonomy with A13.

On Xiaomi Eu rom you have to be precise and make a logcat for bugs.
Yes, but I'm getting older and contrary to most of this community, I don't like tinkering with my device that much anymore. I see that MIUI 14 introduces most of the features that I loved from xiaomi.eu and I'd love the comfort of OTAs, safety and no headaches due to having an unlocked bootloader and just generally, the ease of use of a stock device with no sort of tinkering whatsoever. And just easier back-ups. Also, I'd like having beta access to Xiaomi since xiaomi.eu has none for my device
Now, I'm wondering if flashing using the official xiaomi tool will just lock bootloader and fix/restore everything to stock.

Xiaomi eu has the play store certified without root and with the unlocked bootloader and updates via OTA.

Betas will still be based on the Global.
Betas are test roms to finalize the global stable.

Wait, isn't the beta based on EEA ? I look at the roms and beta was available only for EEA

Global or EEA same base except that the EEA includes restrictions following the European directives.

Hi, I had quite a nooby question, I have an Indian variant of 11T Pro which is running on its latest Indian variant of MIUI, can I relock my bootloader during flashing of EEA variant of MIUI or will that brick my device? Not sure if this the correct thread, I'm sorry if it isn't, didn't know where to ask this question. Thanks

On this device (VILI) you can re-lock the bootloader with any stock fastboot rom with Miflash.
