[Q] MIUI

Hello all,
Looking to put miui on my old m7 which the wife now has, she likes the skin that miui uses and I must say, it does look very nice even if a rip-off from ios.
There are two ported roms on the miui site, a v6 and a v7.
I didn't want to post questions about the other miui rom in the thread by JTJTJ as it seems unfair to him.
In folks opinions, which of the two ported roms has proved most reliable and most stable for them?
I am always a bit apprehensive regarding the apps pre-installed on miui roms. Does anyone know which miui apps, which chinese based apps can be safely removed without crashing the rom? The less the better for me.
Ps. I forgot, there is also the Firedance gpe based version on a german website to throw in the mix.
Thanks.

Mi5 ROM comparison

Hello,
I've been on xiaomi.eu's global 8.5 ROM for a while and I've been looking here for a new rom that is not MIUI, but there are so many of them.
So, I write this post to know which of them is better than the others, or at least know the differences between them: CM, Lineage OS, RR, Paranoid Android, Slim7, etc.
Are all this roms working ok on this phone? Do they have bugs?
Thanks

CM has been discontinued, but has been succeeded by LineageOS. This seems to be the most common ROM for this phone.
RR and Paranoid Android offer extra features that LineageOS does not, mostly related to customization. You can read the first forum post for each one to see what to expact.
Slim7 is designed to be the lightest ROM with the least amount of added features, optimized for speed and low memory usage.
No ROM is necessarily "better" than the other - it is all a matter of personal opinion and what you're looking for. I personally prefer Lineage because it's updated weekly, but you might opt for something with more features.
As to which ROMs work/have bugs: again, read the first (or second) forum post for the specific ROM, and it will state whether or not there are bugs to be expected. Since this phone has been out for a while, most ROMs have been tweaked to work well with the phone at this point, but it's always helpful to read through to see what to expect.

Is there any MIUI 9 based ROm for Mi5?

Hi all
I really like MIUI over AOSP, and i was a Masik user in my mi5. Is there any MIUI 9 based ROM for the Mi5? I only find AOSP based roms, that i really dont like
Thanks in advance mates!

Xiaomi.eu has been the go-to "custom" MIUI for me, a new version is released every time an official Chinese dev MIUI is put out, I suggest you try it.

Like maddoka said, go for the EU version of MIUI. Is the chineese rom in english without any bloatware. Pure MIUI. I use it myself and is the best rom in any circumstances.

Rom suggestion(newbie)

Hi folks,
I just bought Redmi K20 pro(indian variant)
I am going to unlock it's bootloader soon,already familiar with custom rom and stuff was using havoc on op3t before,I just want a custom rom with some features, should be stable and updated frequently (once per month is okay for me),Any suggestions are welcome

I've installed evolution x, works everything smooth and a lot of customisations. Give it a try.

None are completely stable yet and I don't think any are at the level before the move to Android 10.
I prefer my AOSP ROMs to come without GApps baked in, so my recommendation is Havoc. Seems the most stable to me, though still not at the level it was at when it was 2.x PIe based. Go for the @alex9yust developed version, currently the best and most actively developed.

Thank You Guys!

Which ROM/GSI is the most stable/works best ATM?

I'm pretty fed up with MIUI and it's limitations and I'm considering switching to a custom ROM but I'm having a hard time finding much information about how usable are the currently available releases. I've heard good things about Havoc and xiaomi.eu.
Which ones did you try and which ones are the most stable and have the most stuff working?

I am a redmi note 8 user and I personally choose xiaomi.eu over the other roms. It has more features than stock miui and it feels smoother. I don't like custom roms from xda because they are not updated regularly and have more bugs(at least for my device). You should try both although so that you choose.

I am using havocos. It is very stable. You can try that. Only screenrecorder is not working, everything else is working fine.

I use stock MIUI rom-excellent rom for my Redmi 8!:good:
