This means that there will no longer be any weekly beta ROM updates for those phones. There will be at some stage stable ROMs.

from MI9: 6 to 24mbps.....
from my thinkpad: 260 to 280mbps..
I thought I was crazy/stupid or something until searched throught this thread and found posts by THODORISMAR and iDuzzy. They also have WIFI problems, so I'm not alone .. at least
Maybe new version will solve our problems.
Keep refreshing https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=324213

in your phone are you using the browser downloader???
try to use ADM if its still 6-24mbps only
and maybe the stable one even eventually stop =( finally was able to install it and now this ='( , well might as well go for the stable already. Thanks for taking the time to answer
How is weekly build on xiaomi mi 11? Is it stable enough for every day use? Is battery better than stable version? Thanks

Hey, I've been thinking, why don't you mi 9 users make a guide like this: (https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads...d-for-mi-10-umi-use-lp-plus-extra-tips.59306/ )? The bottom half is probably the same procedure, so you could probably trim it to reduce bloat, but the upper half, with a few changes, I think would help people new to flashing.
(Oh btw, heyy, you Greek too @geoanto555??)

Does anyone know how to turn on auto fill for Android Apps? It works fine on Chrome but doesn't show up for any app.

Hello, sorry if my question is wrong here ... I'm on mi mix 3 and I have a problem, I was on version 20.5.21 and everything went great, yesterday I updated to version 20.9.4 and I have big battery drain ... when I downgrade to version 20.5.21, my phone does not boot but goes back to TWRP. Now I am back to version 20.9.4 via backup, what do I have to do to be able to successfully downgrade to version 20.5.21?

The weekly is absolutely stable for daily use. I don't know whether the battery life is better than the stable version. The China version should have the best battery life because there is no GMS.

Allow your phone time to do a few charges, and also check your settings. Monitor what it is that is draining the battery, and see if you can adjust for that.
You need to give your system enough time to adjust, and acquire statistics.
[Added later: proper backup with an app requires rooting; otherwise the phone's and Google's backup are probably the best that can be done to back up apps and their data. A NANDroid backup with TWRP/Orangefox backs everything up. Titanium can restore individual apps and data from a NANDroid backup.]
I've looked at Swift Backup following the recommendation in a post here, though haven't (yet?) tried it. I've checked lots of reviews, and xda-developers. I'll post what I found out (I don't think backup is off-topic for a forum to do with beta-testing, apologies if I'm wasting bandwidth). There is also a useful FAQ on the SB Web site. The Play Store page or the SB FAQ (I forget) gives the reasons for requiring Google account login.

I made some lengthy notes for my purposes (I need a good backup); I'll post them here, without editing. A lot of this is pasted from discussions, particularly if in "quotes".
Earlier free versions only backed up one-by-one; from v3.5 batch backup is possible in free version. Must sign in with a Google account, but can then be used offline.
Note: possibly backups not stored in the cloud are restricted to the device being backed up, can't restore to another. Swift Backup is associated with a particular Google account. [Note for xiaomi.eu posting: I later found info on restoring to a different device, see further down]
Android is becoming more restrictive. In particular, all partitions except /data are mounted read-only when running Android, so system apps can't be deleted while running; a custom recovery can be used.
adb backup is no longer supported by Google, and is likely not to work properly.
Removable SD cards and OTG storage is not supported for several purposes; use the built-in "sdcard" and copy files.
Swift Backup folder locations are fixed, both locally and in the cloud, and can't be changed.
For external storage of backups, copy the 'SwiftBackup' folder. Restart the app to detect the copied-back backup. Android/data/org.swiftapps.swiftbackup/SwiftBackup
Multiple backups aren't supported (one extra "archived" backup can be stored).
A Swift Backup user ID is used to make the encryption key; user passwords are not supported. As an alternative, upload backup files to a personal cloud server (PC/NAS device) using the available cloud options in the app like, for example, WebDAV.
"some apps may have additional security or keystore based protection which make it easy to detect a factory reset or a change in device. There is no way to fix this. Regardless, most apps restore fine with Swift Backup."

"is it possible to back up app data on one phone and sync it on an another?" ... "you can copy 'SwiftBackup' from your device or you can sync your app backup to cloud on device 1 and then use it on device 2 by switching the cloud backup tag in the 'Cloud sync' tab.

Farewell to titanium backup. Looking for alternative.
Hi. Just had and upgrade from OnePlus 6t to OnePlus 7 pro. I was thinking, that it's gonna to be easy walk in the park using my old friend Titanium backup. Ow how I was wrong. I used "migrate system data" checkbox checked Every third user app...

Did you take a look at logcat for details of the crash? I had similar issues; I needed to change permissions/ownership on a single directory (/sdcard?). I had to do this once, and then all subsequent restores have been working fine. it's quite easy to do with "adb logcat" and then just try to start the app.
The best thing I did was not to try to restore everything on the new phone, but just selectively restore apps that I missed from the old phone over time. apps like signal/whatapp need specialized restore processes anyway due to encryption, and the storage of data outside of the app data location.

Titanium Backup often does not restore the APK properly, but I have had great success in restoring app data and I can always download and install the app from APKMonk, APKMirror F-Droid or my backup APK. Without GAPPS, the Titanium Backup PRO key will not work and the free app is too limiting, though using a licence file should work.

The problem of apps with split APK's makes it harder to make your own backup APK, and if you can't find the full APK on a mirror, you can be in trouble. I have found a good solution using SAI (which doesn't back up app data; https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.aefyr.sai&hl=en&gl=US ).
I backup the app with TiB (which, as you say, does a good job still with the app data). And I backup the APKs with SAI. Between the two, I can rollback/restore/etcetera.

With Bluetooth, the sound is better if AptX or a later codec (HD, LL, Adaptive) is used; both phone and headphones must support it. All recent phones with Snapdragon processors have hardware capable of AptX, but the less expensive ones, like Xiaomi Redmi, don't have software support. I have installed a Magisk AptX module to add AptX. But for best sound I've recently bought, cheaply, a 2nd-hand LG G5 with B&O HiFi DAC (and AptX HD support with Bluetooth), with wired headphones, for use when not on the go (or if I care to carry an extra device).

Great research!
Titanium Pro is used as a supplementary backup for me, when needed. My main backup is TWRP, which, in effect, is a dump of system, all apps, their data, and icons and widgets. Therefore it is an 'all or nothing' backup.
It may not suite everybody, but suits me perfectly - especially for the weekly ROMs.
I added a comment to my original post to say that a NANDroid backup like you describe can be read by Titanium, and individual apps and/or their data can be extracted. (If you use Orangefox instead of TWRP, you have to put the NANDroid backup in the location that TWRP uses, maybe /TWRP/Backups, I don't remember.) But extracting backed-up SMS messages from a NANDroid backup is complicated - I've done it.Great research!

I use Migrate backup. You can restore apps individually via recovery eg TWRP/Orangefox.[Added later: proper backup with an app requires rooting; otherwise the phone's and Google's backup are probably the best that can be done to back up apps and their data.

are you playing "POU" ?
If you have a question, feel free to ask with some details, so that we have a chance to answer correctly
Yes ! This problem has existed for a long time, and I don’t know if it affects system security ？
For non rooted users, I think helium still works (though if adb fails,it may fail to), but I think it doesn't support split apks. Also as somebody else said, check migrate too.[Added later: proper backup with an app requires rooting; otherwise the phone's and Google's backup are probably the best that can be done to back up apps and their data.
