New phone update questions - Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers

I'm getting this phone tommorow and I'm wondering do I update to latest 10.2.3 firmware because I see people having problems with battery life and performance or do I stay on previous

if your phone comes with miui 9 and battery performance is your priority then dont go to miui 10 but if you want cosmetic changes, a bit smoother experience go for miui 10.
one more thing,my phone was much louder with miui 9 too.

If you update i suggest to use open beta as is more stable than stable

[Discussion] Best costum rom for k20/m9t

Hello Everybody,
The idea behind this thread is to share our experience with costum roms avialable for our device.
To keep it clean I suggest to put exact version of os we're on to avoid comments like "it works for me".
Hope that will help to clear current situation in dev stage.
My current costum-ish one is xiaomi.eu 11.0.3 Stable. As name suggest it's rock solid, miui on top so we can love or hate it, however as it's based on xiaomi software I do not experienced any bugs so far.
I am on stock ROM now MIUI 11 / Android 9. Looking for an opportunity to switch on Android 10 ROM, which have amoled black theme for most of apps in dark mode. Current ROM (stock) even don't have black theme for youtube. So any suggestions are considerable.

MIUIMIX Beta/Weekly.
1 - MIUI in my opinon is superior to AOSP and Lineage, better battery, fit to the hardware.
2 - Updated to the latest and greatest that Xiaomi want on the phone
3 - Very stable, even if the Beta
I don't want my ROMs to wear costumes.
I ran xiaomi.eu with android 10, paranoid alpha 2, evolution x3.3/3.4, pixel experience, all android 10. Best ones are evolution x and paranoid alpha, (pixel experience couldnt play audio on youtube? And videos were stuttering while playback). If you want to be on the safe side, just use xiaomi.eu with android 10, but if you want to try something out, try evo x
Paranoid Android Alpha 2 (Android Q) for me. Very stable, buttery smooth, kickass battery life. If customization is not your priority (but performance is), Paranoid Android takes the cake for me. Cheers.
try RR remix Pie it has minimal to zero bugs, dark mode, lots of customization combined with butterfly kernel v5 and you can use it as a daily driver. i've try miui eu and other custom roms but RR is very stable and it has a good battery back up.

Where can I get the rr ROM?
Hella Rom, pretty good battery life. No bugs, really snappy. Running the last release based in 12.05 Miui release. Tuned to my taste.

question , stable miui 12 vs xiaomi.eu vs miuimix battery life

So I just got the new miui update, however I'm noticing left screen on time compared to miui 11, so I was wondering if it was worth it to switch to xiqomi.eu or miuimix , and whether itll have any significant impact on battery
Is anyone using either of the two roms could post some screenshots of screen on time that would be great

Questions regarding xiaomi eu rom

If I switch from miui global to xiaomi eu using the twrp method, will it be possible to update my phone using the check for update option provided in settings, or will I have to flash a zip file using twrp every time an update comes out? Also, for those people who switched from global to eu because of the horrible battery life in global, did the change improve battery life?
Can't say about battery but probably won't be much of a difference...
I switched because of missing call recording feature on global
The updater in eu rom will just download the zip for twrp basically.
It is smoother than global. Also battery life has gone better for me.
surprised missing recorder called in the dialer after putting miui 12 , does it happen to others?
Battery life is fine I guess
Camera2 API was also enabled by default so Gcam should work great tho my unit seems to be defective
Stability wise it is based on China Stable Beta so BUGGY at times
You get more features not found in Global or other releases so that's nice
And as touch goes, if you got the lag/ghosting issues like I do then it won't fix it, sorry
:laugh:
for me battery life is better in global rom and i don't see any deference in performance

MIUI 12 strange battery drain

I have noticed that the MIUI 12 version 12.0.1 would have a strangely fast battery drain overall on my mi note 10 lite which I recently purchased. An update for the MIUI 12.02 just rolled in today and has appeared to be a bit kinder on the battery life. Anyone else having battery related issues with MIUI 12 on their mi note 10 lite ? I am really thinking about flashing back to MIUI 11 once my bootloader can be unlocked tomorrow.

I debloated my phone yesterday from all the annoying services of Google as well as Xiaomi ones and particularly the Joyose which is the telemetry and ad service and my battery life has sky rocketed! I will upload screwnshots of the usage shortly.

Allow me also mention that I am on miui 12.0.3 and have also restricted the applications that tend to autostart for no reason. Chrome in particular I uninstalled since it seemed to autostart for no reason frequently.
Same issue on miui 12.0.2
Bought this phone some days ago & battery is not performing as well as it should be considering the phone holds a memoth battery.

Indeed it is pretty strange but in my case de bloating my phone and disabling quite a few Google services helped me. My only issue is that the Other apps power consumption just does not make sense for me being more than 10% which would be the case for my old redmi note 7. Anyways it might be due to dirty flashing although I have factory reset my phone through TWRP the last time I flashed MIUI 12 12.0.3 (xiaomi.eu that is). I don't really want to go back to miui 11.0.5 which seems to be the best miui version battery wise due to some miui 12 features that I like but if no fixes are presented to this on future miui 12 updates I might just have to refrain to flashing miui 11...

Question Mi 11X Pro(Haydnin) Overheating in Xiaomi.eu ROM?

Hi, I flashed Xiaomi.eu on my Mi 11X Pro but due to some reason it overheats a lot can anyone who has flashed Eu in Mi 11X Pro tell me if same happens with them as well.
Are you using Stable or Dev build. I noticed that overheating issue were reduced in recently Dev builds.
I tried both builds stable and beta the device overheats in both.
@termination5646 what are the advantages of using EU ROM. Also, how did you disable NFC via adb? Thanks!!
Mostly more features and MIUI dialer and Messages. Battery life is same as the Global ROM. Ram management is a little bit better. To disable NFC use the App Inspector to get package name and then uninstall it via ADB (NFC service). The speakers sound quality is noticeably better and louder. Downside is that it takes a little bit more time to charge nothing huge around 10 minutes more. Also you cannot use Google Ambient Display while charging and Google Discover also has issues. Other than that everything is fine. Also it does heat up a little more than it does in the Global ROM again nothing huge just a little bit. Overall device is smoother than Global. Performance in benchmarks is also similar. Also there's a chance that some of these problems might not be there in the stable Xiaomi.eu build. I am on the weekly beta.

Hey bro,
I just bought this phone and I'm thinking of installing the EU rom. What's your impression so far of the EU rom? Is it worth installing over the default Indian version that comes with the phone? Do you receive OTA updates? If yes, then I'm guessing you receive EU updates. Do we have to remove the NFC services again when an update comes?
Is the EU rom worth the headache?
