Google Now Launcher does not work on the Xiaomi Redmi Note 4? - Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers

Hello all, I've been trying for the longest time to install Google Now launcher on the Redmi Note 4 with MIUI8, but Ican't get it to work. All my previous Xiaomi devices have been able to use Google Now Launcher as the default launcher following this guide.
www.androidheadlines.com/2015/02/android-install-google-now-launcher-xiaomi-miui-6.html
However, when I follow the guide above, Google now launcher will be the default at first boot, but when I hit home, it always goes back into the system launcher.
Anyone else experience this?

Had the same problem with MIUI 8.0.5.0 Chinese stable ROM.
After I installed the xiaomi.eu ROM version which is based on the Chinese developer ROM I could use Google Now launcher without any problems. Even Now on Tap works like desired.

Redmi 3 (NOT Note or Pro) without MIUI?

Hi everyone,
plane and simple:
Is there a way to use the Redmi 3 without Miui? Its not a bad OS, its just to bloated.
I would much prevere the stock andorid, ir something very lightweight.
I already checked out with Cyanogen Mod, but they said, they are NOT supporting the Redmi 3.
So can I run a stock Android on the Redmi 3 without having issues? Or can you advise some other roms?
TY.

there are cm 12.1 and even cm 13 roms for redmi 3 why dont you search it on redmi 3 thread.
Apparently CM13 development just resumed yesterday and it seems to be pretty good for now.
I don't mind miui, it's an attractive rom, especialy 8. But I do mind all the Chinese clatter that come with it. If there is a debloated version for 3S I'd give it a go
Just install the global ROM if that's your problem. CyanogenMod is decent but needs some work to be a daily driver. That and the many bugs that still exist for it.

The "stock kernel"-labelled CM12.1 on XDA works great as my daily driver

Disable Google Apps in MIUI 9 and MIUI 9.5

Hi,
My friend has two Mi phonesRedmi Note4 and Mi Max2.
And recently I updated both; RedmiNote 4 to MIUI 9 and Mi Max2 to MIUI 9.5.
To disable Google Apps like Chrome,Play Music, Play Movies & TV, etc in both I gone through the link.
The steps explained the link is for MIUI 8.0. That's why Google Apps couldn't be disabled.
Please let me know how todisable Google Apps in MIUI 9 and MIUI 9.5?

Pixel 2 Launcher + miui 10?

Hey, I recently switched to MIUI 10 and I want to install the pixel 2 launcher but all the APKs show the "There was a problem parsing this package" error, if I try and install them. Is there any APK that works with MIUI 10?
Thanks in advance.
My bootloader is unlocked and I'm rooted with Magisk.
Hey, I don't know exactly can be installed pixel launcher in miui rom. 1year ago i could not. best experince about it is installing custom rom 8,9 android version like nitrogen , they are based pixel launcher experince but are not as good as miui performance and battery usage.
how do you get miui version 10 rom?
latest update miui is 9.6.2.0 stable version.
there are some ported miui 10 from cooker but as i know kenzo Goodix fingerprint now working
I've tried most of the custom ROMs already and I've been using the pixel 2 launcher with those ROMs but I went back to miui 10 to try it out. Also, I'm not using stable ROM, there's a developer ROM available from the MIUI forum, I think it is MIUI 10 v8.9.20.
it seems pixel launcher is not working on miui roms. it is ported for other based roms without miui environment.
what is your fingerprint model?
goodix or fpc?
does your fingerprint work in miui 10 ?
