    Edit: Resolved. Click for the solution in a post below. Hi and first of all thanks to the developers for all the continuing hard work! On my "Dior" trying to open Additional Settings inevitably ends with a force-close. It was already happening with the last week's version, 5.7.2. The problem...

    It was annoying me too. Here's a patch I've been using to get rid of it: diff -urN XiaomiServiceFramework.orig/smali/com/xiaomi/activate/ActivateService.smali XiaomiServiceFramework/smali/com/xiaomi/activate/ActivateService.smali ---...

    @graw2 @jpenzo Thank you for the faith you put in me :) but I don't consider myself more skilled than the developers here at all. The reason I could spot some things they didn't is that I'm new to this project, so I come with a fresh look. Does this problem also show up in the stock Xiaomi ROM...

    That's perfectly fine. I really respect the decision to keep everything as close to stock as possible and never actually thought you should remove the recovery check by default. I only posted this for people who know what they're doing so that they know they can disable it manually. I've just...

    Not really sure what you're trying to do, so pick your answer: :) No, TWRP has a much nicer interface.No, you can just run it when you need it (fastboot boot recovery.img).No, the stock recovery can be used to install updates as well (instructions).

    Some other changes I make, except the patches, which I posted about before. Hopefully useful for others too: Deletion list The quoted names follow the Edify format for easy inclusion in your updater-script but all of it can also be deleted manually:delete("/system/recovery-from-boot.p")...

    Note to Moderators: I tried to make the post shorter with the [SPOILER] tag but it doesn't seem to work. If there's another way to do it, please let me know and I'll re-edit my post (or please feel free to make any changes yourself). I wanted to share some patches I use, perhaps someone else...

    Just wanted to post a single follow-up, other than that I'll not be continuing this topic. First of all, I want to restate that I really appreciate all the hard work of Ingbrzy, Acid, and the whole Xiaomi.eu development team (I believe that iBotPeaches of APK Tool fame is also a member). Thank...

    I know it's your project, and the decision is yours to make. However I think the choice to bundle an arbitrary third-party application is a wrong one. Please reconsider it. Chrome might be a good browser for some people. Others though, such as myself, would not touch it even with a ten-foot...

    I mean MIUI 5 seems to have some features that did not make it into MIUI 6 so far. Eventually they'll all be ported, I think, but if you got used to them meanwhile you might want to stay with the previous version for this reason. I'm new to MIUI and didn't play a lot with it as a user...

    I was in the same situation recently (just got a Xiaomi device) but instead of asking others, I compared the contents of the two ROMs and now I have the answer for myself. These are just ZIP files, you can unpack them and look inside. You don't need any insider knowledge, just use "7-Zip" or...

    Asssisted GPS settings: MSA, MSB, SUPL switched off?

    Hello, I'm new here. I just got myself a MIUI device (Hongmi Note 4G). I think I'll end up flashing Xiaomi.eu ROM on it. I'm taking a closer look at your ROM and I generally like what I see very much. Thanks for all the hard work with the optimizations (and the translations)! I was just...
