aslo badly need miui on my mi a3
It is literally known as meme-ui the whole Android community gives out about it, it is a meme for how bad it is.
Your better off going with an aosp rom as your privacy and data will be safe, Android one just gives it all to Google aswel.
Read up about these things first don't just go blindly flashing stuff coz it's "cool".
Plus it's a lot heavier than an aosp rom which will eat ram and battery on the device and probably result in a decrease in performance.
What is the reasoning behind wanting miui so much? Just out of curiosity.
Is there any way to install gsi on mi a3? tried to install resurrection remix through fastboot in "A" slot (fastboot flash system system.img) but phone doesn't boot.

i am using miui from very first of my phone. and after buying mi a3 i just stuck into minimal feature of android one .. also i need to get back app locker, privacy locker, screen recoder with internal audio, real full screen gesture dark mode and many mode without using any 3rd party app
Why did you buy the A3 in the first place? CC9e is identical in specs but with MIUI, I'd buy this phone because of Android One like the most of us.

moreover, CC9e has FullHD+ 1080p screen, unlike A3.
3 yars since A1 was released, and people are still buying Android One devices to install miui there...

nope the cc9e is also 720p. the cc9 is indeed fhd (aka mi 9 lite)
yes, such a shame... and makes no sense, the android one support does add to the price the phones so why... is a big mistery for me too... not to mention variety, there's countkess more miui phones to choose from

What you are saying used to be true.
I hated Miui when I first tried it in 2017. Recent Global versions of Miui is fantastic, I prefer using the customized Xiaomi/EU rom.
AOSP has its merits, but the Xiaomi Meme thing is honestly outdated and frankly silly.
and after so many jokes and history classes, and explanations of the boy who works at bestbuy, is there any way to use MIUI in the A3?

...Second space
Record calls (without using any 3rd party app)
etc, etc, etc
What's so bad on using 3rd party apps to have those feature? I for one have zero interest in call recorder, screen recorder, app lock, second space or any of the MIUI apps and I'm glad that these, for me useless apps are not part of the system. That's why I always choose clean Android. If you know that you need such features, well, buy a phone with MIUI..? Even if you somehow manage to boot MIUI on A3, it won't support OTA updates and most probably some of the essential features won't work (e.g. FP sensor).

If Mi CC9e had a global MIUI (not English / Chinese only), there would be no such conversation. But since there are a lot of people who like MIUI more than Android Stock, there are a lot of people looking for MIUI for the Mi A3!

Xiaomi has 4 phones with Android One and at least 20 with MIUI. A3 is nothing special (except the Android One program), why on Earth would you choose it over any other phone with fully supported MIUI out of the box? Just to complain that you miss things which are deliberately not present?

A3 is nothing special? Tell me one smartphone with a screen less than 6 inches (for me very important) and a decent battery (over 4000 mAh). In addition it has a good / excellent camera.

I am not familiar with MIUI phones as I find zero interest in them. If there is no such phone, I guess you need to make a compromise somewhere.
Most recent phones have excellent camera with gcam mod.
Guys, MIUI has its benefits, but stock android is not that bad either. I just love stock android.
But it seems many people are regretting buying this phone. Maybe someone will port MIUI for A3 someday, meanwhile you can follow the video shared by @ozankardes, it looks promising. The video is not in English, but I guess you can pickup the important bits easily. Good luck!
I tried the MIUI ROM in the video. it work.
ROM belongs to MI CC9e. Only 2 languages. English & Chinese. You can use morelocale2.
-No Google apps.
-Auto brightness is not stable.
-Fingerprints don't work.
Everything works except what those.
I tried a few more A/B GSI roms (Flyme 8, MIUI 11). None of them worked. Maybe only will work GSI A roms I don't know. We need to do more trials.

I would like to know if there is any way to use a rom emui in our xiaomi redmi note 4 sd. I was trying to run it but the truth is that I could not. The rom itself is pretty smooth and it would be good to give it a try.
I don't think so.
But why? Just why?
On my previous phone (Huawei Ascend P6) the only thing I wanted in the world was to remove emui.
No need for ****ty EMUI, want it buy huawei
Use Miui it's almost like emui ?

MIUI just has too many problems.
A report came yesterday about a Android Security Watchdog finding some serious flaws in the very basic structure of the ROM.
There is serious Security flaw with the Mi Mover and other system apps.
Xiaomi has rebuked the allegations saying it requires PIN/Password or Pattern authentication for the bug to cause havoc, but then, flaws are flaws.
Taking into consideration, the push notifications bugs and limited task capabilities etc., its safe to say that MIUI needs a lot of refining.
A saying goes with iOS devices, that it just works. But that's not the case with MIUI.

Howdy! I'm torn between buying a Poco F1, Mi 9 Lite or Mi 8 Pro, and was checking here to see which of the phones has more support from the community. It seems like the Poco F1 is the winner, BUT... I'm worried in that in two or three ROM threads I checked, it's suggested "you flash the nano Google Apps". Why is that? I mean, in past phones of mine, like the HTC Desire or the OnePlus One, and if I remember correctly, you could repartition your storage to get more space for the system partition. This way you could flash normal-sized Google Apps. Is the Poco F1 - and other phones by Xiaomi - stuck at a specific size, with only the nano version flashable?
And if yes, doesn't that mean that in, say, six months or one year, when those apps will have grown even larger, not even the nano version will fit and you'll have to go even smaller?
I don't want to buy a phone for which new ROMs will feel too restricted, or you'll have to jump through major hoops to flash, one year down the road.

There's no system space restriction whatsoever, neither do you need to repartition the storage.
Nano gapps are suggested mostly because there are some ROMs that encounter bugs with richer gapps
and because opengapps support only up to nano-gapps for Android 10 for now
Ah,I see! Thanks for the clarification! If it's not too much, or against the rules, which one of those phones would you believe would be better in the long run? I've already bought a Mi 9 Lite for my wife, and I love its display, but the Poco (and, up to a point, the Mi 8 Pro) have better CPU/GPU and support here. For some reason, I don't see the Mi 9 Lite "catching up over here" - its forums seem baren compared to the other ones. But, damn, that screen...

I own the poco for about a year and i have bought mi 9T for my wife (same as the lite, but with submersible camera).
Screen difference is great.
The notch is a large disadvantage for the poco and many good ROMs break the deal for me, with how they use the space it leaves.
Sound is a bit better on mi9t
I don't think photos (with gcam) have much difference between the two, except telephoto.
I am very satisfied with the poco but i have to let you know that:
1. If you're not gaming i'd suggest mi9 lite/t
2. I get 7-8 hours SOT without performance restrictions, so if you choose the mi8, i guess that you'll get ~5-6h SOT with the smaller battery and the led (if that helps)
Thanks for the quick and extensive reply!
Although I fancy myself a gamer, I find that, at over 40, I end up mostly using my phone in other ways - notes, calendar, task management, GPS...
I really-really like my emulators, that's why the Poco F1 and Mi 8 Pro look better, on paper, compared to the Mi 9 Lite. But if I'm to be a realist, the Mi 9 Lite's screen will end up being better in the long run for ogling text, that will end up being 90% of what I use the phone for. And I'll be damned if its lower specs aren't enough to run some SNES or Genesis - era games
I only hope there's a hack or something for doubling the size of displayed text. My eyesight's started failing, and the text on its ultra-HD screen, on my wife's phone, is also ultra-small for me. I've read that you can't overdo the DPI settings in the dev options 'cause the whole UI might break.

Android 10 has text size reduce/enlarge inbuilt.
Idk if it's there in miui though.
My wife's Mi 9 Lite has an option in MIUI, but I found all the three settings it offered small. That's why I enabled the dev options and directly changed the DPI value. But, AFAIK, I can't overdo that - and don't know what the limits are.
By the way, Mi 9 Lite incoming. Thanks for helping me choose.
Yeah yeah. I know that we've seen the news about Poco and other 845 SoC based phone from Mi Series. Since the rollout of Android 11 on Pixel devices few days ago, there are many new features on Android 11 that I would like to add on Poco but since that Xiaomi promised us to get two major os updates (which are Android P and Android Q) it will most likely will stop on Android Q. But I have high hopes for Poco getting Android 11, MIUI based or not.
What are your thoughts about this?
Xiaomi has already cleared that poco f1 isn't getting android 11. It's not on their roadmap. We'll get miui 12 and maybe even 13 looking at the past experience. MIUI version are major upgrades for Xiaomi phones. Android versions like 9.0, 10.0 are practically just numbers to show off and that hardly adds any features on xiaomi phones.
I created petition on change.org for android 11.

You're on xda forums not miui. The one thing you should be worried about is device sources and community developer support not miui.

Yes I'm fully aware of that. But even though if I posted this on MIUI Forums, I still get the same answers from both Forums.
I highly doubt that someone can use blobs from MIUI 12 Android 10 to start from scratch to build a port to Android 11.
I forgot what device that was, I've experienced this coming back from 2018 when they used blobs from Android M to port and build Android N and that was stable enough they officially launched an official build.
Maybe my intuition was wrong or not, maybe someone from the Poco dev or even from the Poco community might wanna build and port Android 11 and might be one of the biggest breakthroughs of all time. Of course if it is stable enough to be a daily driver. I know that it is hard because of lack of blobs coming from Xiaomi's MIUI but maybe, someone will do it.

Yeah, Android 9 and 10 is kinda bummer because of lack of feature other than setting apps permissions which is great for me.
Android 11 has tons of new features like their improved privacy app features, the new smart device control quick settings which I really need because I have smart devices at home, improved notification and more.
I know these things can be treated on 3rd party apps but who wants to add more apps on their phone and maybe eat the battery on the background.

This is highly unlikely. Check piunikaweb they already mentioned there that a moderator from MIUI forums clarified that we'll get miui12, but unlikely to get Android 11. If you really want 11. Then wait for custom ROMS, but it may not be full MIUI Android 11 ports, rather from Pixel ports (one has already been released)

You misunderstand me. Even if they give android 11, the actual features don't arrive with the update. You will have to wait couple of years more to see native features of android 11 to implement into their MIUI ecosystem.
For example, custom DNS was introduced with Android 7.0 or 8.0 but it really came to xiaomi devices with MIUI 11 in 2020 year only.
On Xiaomi devices going from android 10 or 11 is as unsubstantial like changing security patch from august to september. Most of the people won't notice anything different.
We will 100% get Android 11 as a custom rom. As a matter of fact, it already is a thing. (Search xda) We won't get it officially as all non-pixel devices get only 2 android upgrades.
As far as XDA is there with active dev's updates offically from miui isn't a big deal for me ! Although our dev's are far more better than offical miui cause custom Rom are becoming far more Stabler than stock and in features . :fingers-crossed:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/poco-f1/development/rom-reloadedos-t4162237 11 is out for poco f1. Like i said, who needs xiaomis miui updates when you have xda. Long live the aftermarket software scene.
Is it wise for me to sell my redmi note for lg g7 bcus the gaming performance on the note 10 is not good and the g7 uses sd845 and it's cheap
Why you buying a d€ad company device ?
Lg shutdowned !
and Redmi note 10 not for heavy games and the hardcore gamers won't be satisfied ! it's just for 150$ what you want more !?
beside , if you want gaming and cheap device go for Poco x3 pro.

I see no choice. Either way you have to compromise even if you get the LG G7 unless you spend a little more in some completely other phone which is better for both gaming, day to day task and has a great screen.

It's fine for light gaming. Even some heavy gaming. Depends on the game. So far all the ones I play have been great. I just upgraded to this from a Redmi Note 7, and I am happy.
I just bought and use this RN10 (4/64, all usual 'treatment' by me, nothing special) for my daily phone for about a week, it's a beautiful entry level priced phone, but... aside of many positive things I like from it;
I see stutter (and/or lag) screen (animation) even for (supposed to be) light games (?), like UNO, Wordscapes, Candy Crush, etc.
(I'm not a gamer, I just ocassionally play those kind of light games here and there).
I'm a bit disappointed about this. Because with my old Asus ZF MPM 1 (same 4/64, same 'treatment', same home WiFi and all), those same 'light games' does not stutter/lag.
my RN10 is still in stock MiUI 12.5.2 now.
Perhaps it's the MiUI?
Because I think the hardware should be good enough (not stuttering/lagging like that) for those kind of light tasks/games, right?
(But in my son's (more than a year old) Redmi 9A 3/32 with stock MiUI,.. those stutter doesn't happen).
What's wrong with this Redmi Note 10, or what wrong did I do?
It's my 1st time using Xiaomi and MiUI.
I'm going to Unlock its BL tonight or tomorrow, after waiting Xiaomi mandatory waiting time for 168 hours.

Yes , definely is the MIUI... i have tried the latest 12.5.4 Global (Factory Reset ofc) and there is lag , overheating and much stutters in the system... of course doing basic stuff , i'm not a gamer..
and same case... my grandmother have a Redmi 9A 2/32 with the MIUI 12.0.17 and that phone have a much better performance in the system and games than my Note 10. WTF!!?
So , i switched to Custom ROMs...
The difference in the performance is like x100 times ... so Custom ROMs are the choice if you want a decent experience in this phone.
MIUI is the worst trash ever....

Confused thing for me is that Redmi 9A uses same MiUI 12.. strange.. but maybe the optimization Xiaomi does for Redmi 9A hardware is better(?) I don't know.
Now, my question is;
What Custom ROM do you use now?
(which has 100x performance like you said)

Yes , probably but is just unfair... Note Series should be better optimized but we know that Xiaomi loves to release a lot of phones instead of work in software...

i tested almost every rom available...
What are your thoughts on the device os? Do you think it is good overall and offers good performance and stability? Or would it be better to use a custom rom with it?
I am happy with the global rom, except for a few areas.
1. USB C to 3.5mm adapter is quiet, fixed with a command (need root)
2. Camera's autofocus is bad in some scenarios
The CN rom is filled with the worst kind of bloatware. Every app wants to track your usage, including the realme UI apps. If I remember it correctly, even calculator or some other most basic app requested permissions
Despite global Rom being cleaner, there were still a few bloatware apps that I had to remove like HeyTap Cloud or Quick Device Connect among others.
So to answer your question, stock Rom is good enough but needs a bit of tweaking.
I hope the eu rom is the same as the global rom, but to summarize, the stock rom is good if you can tweak it with root. Am I right?

Iam ex-MIUI user, since 2017 (Redmi 4x, Redmi 5, Mi Mix 2, Mix 2s, Mi 8, Mi 9, Mi 10,...) , started with MIUI 7 or 8 global (i guess), later custom MIUIos roms (EU project, without bloatware, better optimization, different ram management, etc), and this is my first phone without MIUI. I was very worried, but for nothing.
I have EU non-root version, bloatware and google apps - done in 5 minutes without complications, OS is fast, pure, without bugs and any similar problems (team MIUI knows...), after month iam very satisfied.
Consider your use case and the budget. I just browse web and instant message 80% of the time.
Realme seems to be good with OTA updates although Global/EU versions get much slower rollout.
Hardware specs are great.
OS is good, and Global/EU ROM is the closest to stock Google experience.
The conclusion is that the hardware is not the limitation, so all the power is in the user hands.
If you want something that works just right out of the box and has greater community support with comparable specs, you'd probably have to look at Galaxy S22 at twice the price or others.
Other good contender is Realme GT Neo 3. Minor trade-offs here and there.
Or if you only care about camera, Realme 9 Pro+ could be a good option too.
All above have IMX766 camera sensor, same as GT 2 Pro.
If you are looking at GT 2 Pro, consider getting CN version and flashing Global.

OS is good, and Global/EU ROM is the closest to stock Google experience.
The conclusion is that the hardware is not the limitation, so all the power is in the user hands.
If you want something that works just right out of the box and has greater community support with comparable specs, you'd probably have to look at Galaxy S22 at twice the price or others.
Other good contender is Realme GT Neo 3. Minor trade-offs here and there.
Or if you only care about camera, Realme 9 Pro+ could be a good option too.
All above have IMX766 camera sensor, same as GT 2 Pro.
If you are looking at GT 2 Pro, consider getting CN version and flashing Global.

Why should I get the cn version? If I recall I saw people getting issues when flashing it with global so I think that any version should be fine since with eu it's rootable through an exploit
CN came out much cheaper for me.
Flashing global works fine if the steps are followed carefully.

But if I got EU instead, it should be ok to leave it as is and use an exploit to root it no?

The exploit is only needed to unlock the bootloader. Once the bootloader is unlocked there's no difference between the various global models with regard to root.
