    Recents with latest xiaomi.eu ROM for mi 11 Pro ?

    Hi, Installed the very latest xiaomi.eu ROM for the mi 11 Pro. Seems to work great and has really nice battery life. But I have a problem : when I open the "Recents" page, I should normally be able to long press an app and to "Lock" it so it will stick even if I clear all recents. With this, if...

    MIUI 14 23.10.8

    Hi, I am using the previous version, but thread for that is locked. So I am posting here.... Using the Xiaomi.eu ROM on my mi 11 Pro. Is it possible that recents are screwed ? My problem is, if I long press an app in recents, I get a contextual menu that allows me to lock an app. So, even if...

    MIUI 14 23.9.18

    Hi there, Trying to install this on my mi 11 Pro (fantastic device ; pity the updates are dropped)... But after like 20 seconds, I get red messages saying that some partitions could not be mounted. Maybe I should upgrade from something specific ? Right now I am using a custom ROM called...

    Mi11 Global Bricked (Recovered with EDL) Can i flash again?

    Hi, Sure, go to Xiaomi Center. Explain the story. Let them take the phone. Wait ten days. And then pay 49€. And of course find a phone for those 10 days without a phone. Or make the thing online. And pay 25€. Maybe once done, if it is confirmed, flash your own ROM again with fastboot...

    MIUI 12.6 21.11.10/11/12

    Hi, Just asking : is there a way to use another launcher AND to use gestures ? In latest xiaomi it looks like selecting another Launcher makes the option to use Gestures navigation disappear :-( And I DO NOT LIKE the way MIUI Gestures are working. I did not have that on latest official...

    9.1.24/26

    Hi guys, Installed the latest Xiaomi.eu (9.1.24) on my mi Max 3 (Nitrogen). It installs and boots great. But I experience nothing but problems to sync my contacts (82 contacts synched, when I have about 250). I've checked my Google contacts : they are all there. But they simply will not sync...

    9.1.10

    Hi guys, Trying to install this on my Xiaomi mi Max 3 Nitrogen. So far it was running the latest "non ARB" Xiaomi.eu ROM : 8.8.9. I've wiped everything and then installed 9.1.10. It boots, but it seems I have no GPS... Do I have to flash a radio.img or something like that to get full...

    8.12.6 v2

    Hi, FIRST QUESTION : I currently am running Xiaomi.eu 8.8.9 on my mi Max 3 as I thought it was the last version that was free of Anti-RollBack protection. But I think I've heard that the newer version of Xiaomi.eu have removed that ARB protection. Can this be confirmed ? SECOND QUESTION ...

    Hi, Indeed MIUI 8.9.11 Global Beta seems to work quite good on the Pocophone (it is dedicated to that device). And I am also considering xiaomi.eu as the best alternative to MIUI... unless you want to go for a totally different route and install an AOSP or LAOS based ROM. But that's another...

    5 Downsides Of The Xiaomi Mi Mix 2?

    Hi, Sorry, but if I get your point, I must say that all what you're writing is not relevant fro me. And it is probably not for a lot of people. Some questions : - who has a waterproof smartphone AND swims regularly with it ? - who needs a front camera to make artisitic selfies (if that even...

    How To Return To Stock Miui? (mac User Here)

    Hi, I assume your bootloader is unlocked and that you have a custom recovery (TWRP) installed to your device. If so, things are really simple : - 1°) reboot your phone into recovery and hook it up to your computer ; - 2°) download the MIUI Stock file and transfer it to your phone ; - 3°)...

    About "/persist"...

    Hi, The mi Note 2 has AMOLED display and I experienced the same problems with OnePlus 3. The display get's all bluish when at about 25° view angle. And when looked with no angle, colours seem to be "washed out" : white is light grey and such things. Probably a defective device... but then...

    About "/persist"...

    Hi Cresfang, That is what I wanted to do too... But then : opening the mi5 was a breeze. With the "unibody" conception of the mi5s Plus, I thought I would be running into problems and so I let it go :-) Phone is already sold... so problem solved. But at least it explains why Xiaomi can sell...

    About "/persist"...

    Hi, Nope, it did not. Flashing a custom ROM improved things, but did not iron them out for good. Not a problem : phone went to ad site and was sold... with the problem mentioned of course ! I replaced it with a mi5s Plus 4/64 and that one is working flawlessly ! Maybe it's because it's...

    About "/persist"...

    Hi, So, as I said, I deleted everything in that partition called "persist". I then downloaded an official Xiaomi ROM and flashed it with the fastboot method. Device rebooted as it should and seems to work as it should also. Only thing that remains to be checked : will it now have a GPS that...

    About "/persist"...

    Hi there, So anyone can tell me : if I erase the content of that partition, will I be able to restore the content by flashing an official ROM with the "fastboot" method ? Regards.
