    Frustrated With Miui V8? Try Miui V7!

    Thanks Stefan Xposed v87 "MIUI-edition-by-SolarWarez" works well with my 6.11.10 and xMiui solves the 'loosing Google on menu button long press default' problem. Only problem I still have is if you try and do a panoramic shot in the Miui camera app it force closes. so using cardboard camera

    Frustrated With Miui V8? Try Miui V7!

    Dark Note V8 works well for me. Its nice and clean (I just want dark not fancy) When you change the wallpaper its fine. 6.11.10 was the last dev rom before they moved to Nougat so I'm guessing its complete. Certainly better than 6.11.3. As I say the only problem I found is Google search not...

    I think swipe to the left is a little tricky here. The only problem I have is it keeps forgetting Google search for the search app. A small price to pay (though I don't remember the official version of 6.11.10 doing this. ) Sent from my MI 5 using Tapatalk

    Frustrated With Miui V8? Try Miui V7!

    I'm a Marshmallow man myself. It all started going wrong after Nougat. I'm on 6.11.10 and its a fine Rom. Fast and snappy, the last Marshmallow before the Nougat rubbish. The only feature I miss from Nougat is the long screenshot capture. I keep with Miui because I like the Dual App feature...

    Latest Weekly Rom Stable?

    Ois Mi5

    It is not neccessarily that it isn't calibrated, I think it is just not very good. See this video comparing it to S7Edge https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tIlvoivuwXY I am trying to see if there is a way to turn it off

    All at your own risk.... You can unlock with Global developer rom - It is worth installing MiFlash first as it has all the drivers. You need to install TWRP with Fastboot which comes with ADB. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317790 From an administrator command prompt go to...

    Connection To Pc With Usb

    I have just checked and MTP works when USB Debuging is enabled so its not that. I know that USB-C cables can be tricky. Is it the one that came with the phone? Worth trying another cable.
