MULTI 6.9.8/9

Guess not , but it's the desperate neediness that rankles .

I hear you. I'm happy with anything that is stable, pure Android ie no bloatware and makes use of the hardware to the maximum. I don't think there is any rom out there that really prolongs battery life which is what I think all of us want. 3000mah isn't great. Handsets should have 5000mah batteries minimum. I would purchase xiaomi handset in a heartbeat if they released handset with decent processor, gpu, nfc, external sd card and replaceable battery. LG v20 is my hot favourite for specs and what I need but too bloody expensive... When it's released for sale.

Some issues with the marshmallow permissions too.Have been trying to grant Firefox device storage permission..and the "allow" button doesn't respond.

Hello!

So, I made a factory reset and installed the rom again. Now the permissions are working fine.

UMI and ELEPHONE upgrade to Android Nougat.....
XIAOMI developer still sleeping on android Lollipop for redmi note 2...

Can identify with you but seems you'll be disappointed with other brands also.
Had chances to use few Htc, Samsung, huawei, some low known Chinese brands.
Just few models had android baseline upgrades, even that doesn't do Htc and Samsung if it isn't high priced and high status model. For Chinese low known brands, they use android upgrade as misleading marketing, giving you baseline upgrades just few months after of revealing device to market(if even then) and when problems and bugs arise from it because of lousy optimization and implementation they go silent and start ignoring customers.
You said yourself, they shorten there product life cycle so that you be forced to buy new model.
Only way to be sure you'll get few levels of baseline upgrade is to buy popular expensive high end models of popular brands(htc, lg, samsung), brands which markets them in collaboration with cyangenmod or xda community as Oneplus brand or manufacturers models officially backed up from Google.
Rest of market is left to be suported unofficially from xda.

Xiaomi isn't perfect manufacturer but they are somewhere in middle.
They do occasionally baseline upgrade but they are more focused on developing better miui eco system.

Battery drains fastly with redmi 3 pro. Before was better

I've noticed high data usage of the phone. Afther some investigation I've found that the 'analytics app' is responsible for this. Anyone else got the same problem? (Still using 6.9.1 but maybe it's fixed in this rom?)

It seems like that bootloader has been locked. Go to faatboot mode and check with miunlock. It should unlock the phone and will work normally.

Hey, I have a another problem, MiUnlock didn't recognize my phone and when I tried to flash a official rom with MiFlash the soft tell me an error "critical partition flashing is not allowed"...
Thank you for your answer

Samsung s5 (a high end smartphone) is not receiving Nougat, and received MM only this year, and they keep complaining about a low/mid-range phone. Not forgetting that Samsung sells 6-times more phones than Xiaomi..

Closing the off topic.

Open the updater app, tap on the three-dots-menu and select "reboot to recovery". If it doesn't work this way neither, flash twrp again.

Flashed the latest Helium ROM, no problems at all everything works well, thank you!

Question-since this is an EU ROM, does this MIUI version 8 have support for European LTE bands and if so which ones are they?

Thank you for this great work! The only thing I had to do was to wipe the internal memory as it came encrypted and I spent hours looking for a way to decrypt it with TWRP, no luck.

Just a question: if I disablee root with the app SuperSU what happens? My phone seems to work as well. Should i flash supersu again before flashing the weekly or what?

Do you need root for some apps? If not, you can unroot. Root is not necessary to use Xiaomi.eu ROMs.

I don't need root for any app. So every week all i have to do is the dalvik and cache wipe and just flash the new room via TWRP? And what's the difference if i do it via updater?

Yes, no need of flashing SuperSU. I don't know which wipes the updater app includes. If you want my advice, flash from twrp, wiping dalvik+cache after flashing the update.

Imho there aren't in detailes explained which 4g/lte are supported.
For encrypted data, formating partition is only option.

Updater app method is the same as twrp recovery method because updater app installations will be redirected to twrp recovery, so twrp does the job in both cases.
Furthermore not necessary to wipe anything just for installing common weekly updates. All required wipes done automatically due to the install script.

Hi,

Kenzo users,

do you face the Compass calibration that takes much more time?
Small movement also not that easy calibration like before?
