    Upgrading From Eu Miui7 To Global Miui8

    The biggest reason why i changed back to global, was the GPS which was so bad. And i know EU ROM has different GPS code, which obviously was not good. Today, after 3.5 hours standby, battery at 98%

    Upgrading From Eu Miui7 To Global Miui8

    I am neutral. I had a very good first EU ROM, but the reseller had installed spyware on it, so i upgraded to another, newer MiUI7 EU, which was not good at all (and very frustrating if you count on the GPS to track your bike/run route but after coming home you see the route recording is complete...

    No. I tried the last EU MIUI7 which was hot garbage.

    Upgrading From Eu Miui7 To Global Miui8

    If you are very happy (like you said), with your current ROM, why would you upgrade? Trust me, if you are happy, don't upgrade. I was very happy with my first EU ROM, but the reseller had installed spyware in ROOT. So i couldn't remove it unless i installed another ROM or rooted the device...

    Upgrading From Eu Miui7 To Global Miui8

    Overal feeling is the same. Not a fan of dropdown tray, so i changed it back to the "old way". Already some things work which didn't work in EU7, like owner message on lockscreen. Also Miitomo app works (without having to root/hide) which did not work in EU ROM. Antutu benchmark is noticably...

    Upgrading From Eu Miui7 To Global Miui8

    Obviously they don't always since i'm not happy with it. I've had a EU ROM before which was good (but had spyware installed in root by the reseller which is why i went for a new EU ROM), but the latest MIUI7 Rom is bad for my phone. GPS is all over the place, battery is very bad. EDIT: OK, i...

    Yes, this is very nice for you, but not contributing to the topic.

    Upgrading From Eu Miui7 To Global Miui8

    Yes, obviously, i'm sure it is the EU ROM :/ I even made a topic about installing the EU ROM back then. GPS is horrible, battery is bad.

    Upgrading From Eu Miui7 To Global Miui8

    Since i installed the latest/last EU Miui7 ROM (non-rooted version) and it is basically the worst ROM i've ever had installed on any phone (worse performance, HORRIBLE GPS, bad battery life...) on top of the fact that a bunch of apps i care for will not run on the "non official" ROM and i only...

    Benchmarks are benchmarks. I do not take them as gospel but they do form a reference, especially with all other factors equal.

    Thanks, that's a bit disappointing since the first MiUI7 EU ROM i had installed, scored 56.000.

    Do you have more free RAM on MiUI8 compared to MiUI7? And what is your Antutu score?

    I don't know the exact way to flash on mi5, but i once had the same error using MiFlash... but then i could specify another .bat file (which was present in the specified folder) and at the bottom of MiFlash, you could click that option.

    Can someone tell me how the performance is for Hermes Redmi Note 2 (prime)? Is it better than MiUI7? In 7.3.2.0 i only have +/-400MB of free RAM even if i clear everything. In an older version of MIUI7 i had 800MB free RAM with more apps installed. Maybe someone can run antutu for reference? In...
