[ROM] Revolution OS - Xiaomi Mi 8 Guides, News, & Discussion

Has anyone tried this ROM? It's miui based and from what I've read on Mi 9 thread, the battery life is very good and has less bloat.

Here's the thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/Mi-9/how-to/rom-revolution-os-t3926187

is there a OLED friendly option to have a black instead of a white menu ?

I haven't tried it either.
I have tried the following
Official Global Stable : Good but the ads are annoying and its missing alot of features compared to beta and custom rom versions of Miui
Official Global EU beta : Awesome, highly recommended
Chinese and Russian versions : I have not tried.
Mi-Globe : A custom Miui rom based on Global Eu beta, the Miglobe page allows you to build your rom with apps/features built in or removed depending on your selection, which include regional GPS setup, and its released on the same day as the Official EU weekly beta. Does allow 3rd party import of themes, and has excellent battery life. Get it here
Miui Pro : Outstanding as well. But usually updates run behind the weekly EU global and Mi-Globe.
Edit: I recently installed this Mi8 and I must say that it is truly one of the best Miui Rom's that I have tried yet. It includes some very nice older features such as the options of a wide breadth of animations and worldwide theme store, It also has many additional custom battery saving features, such as smart networking ( the list of these features is too lengthy to comment on at the moment. But let me just say that my SOT is very close to 10 hours according to GSAM battery manager. I have used Miui Pro on my other devices for a while, and the rom has always been great. I just found out that the Mi 8 version of Miui Pro requires that you join their site via a subscription and the process is kind of ridiculous. for how long it takes to get accepted. With that being said you can also download a slightly older version of their rom via a link originating from 4PDA rom I am currently using this version and I cannot say enough how much I like it.
Revolution OS : Recently tried, and it's awesome its very similar to Mi-Globe Get the recent version here
Mi-Room: I have not tried yet. But, I have heard great things about this one, I believe it is maybe similar to Miui Pro?
Get it here
I too would be very interested in hearing some feedback from people who have tried other version of Miui.
What was your experience?

Yes, I have definitely heard a lot of great things about Miui MS and I will definitely check it out within the next couple of days.
Currently I am on the last release of Miui Pro and I am thoroughly impressed, the version for the Mi8 is much much better than the version that I tried on my old Leeco.
Thank you

Which is better, global stable or global developer rom?

I have Note 3 PRO Snapdragon version with locked bootloader and I'm wondering which is better global stable or global developer rom? I already tried both, but I didn't saw a lot of difference (exept few bugs on developer rom). What do you think, which is better choice? Thank you!

Global stable is always preferred rom but i have experienced few auto rotation issues with latest stable rom so you can try chinese dev rom and see if it performs well
I must say i have had hard time installing google apps on chinese dev/stable roms
Everyone i got this error
"There's an error communicating with google servers" whenever i tried to log into my google account

Xiaomi.eu Global is the best

I'm on Global Dev since weeks and have no problems! Runs really smooth, good Battery Backup and official Updates every one or two weeks....
Google Apps are preinstalled and its MultiLang...

Global Dev is Good with Touch Assist aswell

I already red that Chinese roms are better than globals, but I need working Google Play store without any tricks to do that.
jujusito, is this rom compatible with locked bootloader and without twp?
Thank you for your opinions!

Redmi 3 Pro: most purer-stable Rom out there?

Hi
Whats up?
Bought the Redmi Note 3 Pro Qualcomm Snapdragon 650 Hexa Core 3GB/32GB version.
After read a lot and especially the ROMs suitable for Redmi 3 Pro thread
I read that the MIUI's rom is onerous the phone with so much bloatware apps(cleanmaster, antivrus, Micloud and so more).
So, what is the most stable rooted rom w/o bugs at the area? (Read that the CM13 still have some annoying bugs)
I'm totally noob at the beginning after buying a new device
Saw the MIUI 8 V6.7.7 -BUT- still prefer more "puerer" rom and ofcoarse - with the least Lags as possible.
Prefer a rom that comes rooted comes with twrp + gapps installed that keeps the great battery life of the RN3 PRO.
Looking for: Clean+fast-NO LAG+comes with recovery(twrp preferred) and Play store.
What would be the most suitable for my needs?
Is there a "tut's" for how to?
Thanks very much for your help

I think twrp and gapps need to be installed seperately for every rom.
For twrp there are several guides but first step is always "unlock your bootloader". You have to either use unofficial unlock method or request permission from xiaomi.
The CM roms i tested were stable but for me there was the bug that the battery is stuck at 50%. Another bug that a lot of users face is a not working fingerprint sensor.
you can check here for a overview and possible fixes http://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-3/how-to/fingerprint-battery-issues-custom-roms-t3429464

I am on Krexus. I suggest you the same. No major bugs.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/red...rom-krexus2013266093caf-6-0-1-mmb29m-t3402304

Hi,
What about MIUI? Maybe the most stable-without bloatware out there?
I want something that close to clean android but still have some few hacks.
Thanks!!!

Miui 7 xiaomi.eu stable 7.3.2. Xiaomi.eu dev 6.5.5 is stable enough too, less stable and good rom is best MIUI 8 rom xiaomi.eu dev 6.7.21, that version od miui 8 is best actually. Of course you should unlock bootloader firstly.

Smiui is great for me awesome battery !!!

@ Pawel978
I'm not sure I understood you.
The best roms for you opinion are:
1) Miui 7 xiaomi.eu stable 7.3.2
2) Xiaomi.eu dev 6.5.5
What do you meant to say in this sentence?
"less stable and good rom is best MIUI 8 rom xiaomi.eu dev 6.7.21"
It not stable but still the best MIUI Rom?

I suggest reading through this reddit wiki first. As for which rom is the most stable and bug free, I'd say Mokee.

Thanks very much!!

Cm13 from santosh is the most stable but not the lightest
Krexus is the lightest/fastest but not the best battery
RR is polyvalent with lots of (useless for me) features, quite stable
Slim is pretty good compromise between speed/stability

I think slim is very small but meaningful customazings and very good from the battery power I have 8.5 hours sot or infinitive os is almost as but both are pretty good

@aaz03 and @noobstyle1337
Thanks for summerized for me the most recommanded roms for my needs.
Guess I will chose between:
Cm13
Slim
All best!!

Global developer Rom vs Chinese Developer Rom

Hi I will receive my Redmi note 3 pro prime... 32gb/3ram snap650 tomorrow.
There so many versions of this phone that looking at the Rom's it's quite confusing with all the have the different boot loader unlocking ( I will go with official - I got the SMS ), different processor variants, different FP sensor, support for quick charging etc.
Anyway I would like to start of with any of the official Rom's and maybe in September after my holiday move on to CM or other. Which version I should go to are there any difference in options between the two ( apart of lack of gapps).
Any advice on different ROM's would be great!
Thanks

Go for developer china it has more functions but i prefer CM because i dont like Miui and now there is support for the new sensor in CM from santosh

Can the chinese developer version be flashed on global version Redmi note 3 (SD 650)? Also shuld i flash back the global developer ROM to unlock the bootloader officially..(i got the SMS)

Basic difference that I found are
1) you can get music online
2) you have accelerated downloads(not sure how much accelerated though )
3) you can install font and all themes (best one imo.. there are some amazing themes that you can't install in global )
With all this said I would not go for China developer ROM actually.
I gave it a try and trust me there were tons of ads ..and then also you'd the problem of installing Google apps (like contact sync and all)..go for global dev ROM or Xiaomi.eu Roms ..I didn't try Xiaomi.ru roms personally but I read they are much better

EU roms are the best.
-based on china dev
-minimum Gapps, all chinese bloatware & MIUI bloatware removed
-optimized with various fixes and tweaks
-faster than global dev
-regularly updated
-working theme store.
don't bother flashing any kernels. stick to stock...variety of small bugs with custom kernels.

chines Rom have some more functions

Well , the globe rom is based on xiaomi.eu rom , but in addition it gives you the ability to customize it ( disable daemon service , pre installed magisk , disable stock apps like browser and such , optimize gps location , and much more )
I have been using it as my mainly driver for almost a month , no complaints here .
