Hi All
Just got it delivered now.
First impressions - Not so snappy UI Coming from custom OS on previous phone, so it will take some time to get used to.
Disappointed with Selfie cam. Back cam looks good. Very initial impressions though.
Software version is A.16 out of the box.
1) I checked for update but it shows this is already the latest version. Does it takes time to get the update on new phones?
Will I get incremental updates to A.17, then 18 and so on or directly the latest one?
2) Generic tweaks to debloat Color os - Hot apps, hot games, music app etc. Please suggest or link me to correct thread?
3) Any settings tweaks to make the UI more snappy and and debloat further.
No plans to use custom os for new months initially. Will eventually move to custom os if color os 7 also disappoints.
Go to realme community and download realme 3 pro latest software update. It comes with dark mode
Ota update will not come?
Shall I directly upgrade to A.20 or incrementally?
How is battery life and standby drain on A.20?

if you dont unlock bootloader then ota updates will be received
Haven't unlocked bootloader. That's why I am asking. Does it takes time to get OTA updates? Using the phone for 2 days now. Running on A.16. still no update.
Anyone facing front camera portrait not working after unlock bootloader. I flashed stock ROM again , relocked bootloader but still not working

Hi community,
as far as I read nougat has been torn back from sony. Anybody updated before and has a smooth experience? Would like to update too.
Downloading and starting flashtool does not give me the check updates tab, so is anything wrong or has the device to be prepared?
Does this way need root or unlocked bootloader or something else?
I hoped taking a virgin z5c and flashtool would fit to check for updates, find the device and firmwares according to, choose one of and flash?
Isnt it that easy? Any ideas when nougat from sony official will be provided once more?
Thank you
There were a couple of serious bugs in the Nougat release, hence the draw back by Sony.
Maybe in a month or two, we'll see a fully working Nougat ROM for Z5C.

I'd suggest to wait too. Backup TA, Root and use Xposed instead. The only thing that is a bit more handy is split screen mode. I have audio bugs and thermal issues running nougat.
I hope someone finds this helpful.
I have been waiting for MIUI 12 and seeing family members Redmi phones receiving newer versions of MIUI 11, I decided to go looking.
MIUI 11 V11.0.7.0.QJCMIXM Update at 2020-08-28 13:58:11 is now available. :good:
Changelog:
Other
Optimization: Increased system stability
Optimization: Reduced system lag
Download link for both OTA and Recovery are available here.
https://mirom.ezbox.idv.tw/en/phone/lancelot/[/url]
I followed this guide to upgrade to this latest update of MIUI 11 using the OTA file.
https://c.mi.com/thread-1890305-1-0.html[/url]
My Redmi 9 is now on - V11.0.7.0.QJCMIXM which is much smoother and noticeably better, i am looking forward to MIUI 12 when it is available.
Just an FYI...
This also appears to have fixed the icons disappearing on the bottom of my home screen from time to time, which apparently only occurs when you have an app draw setup.
I haven't seen it occur in over 24hrs, where it used to happen regularly before I did the update.
Tnks a lot...i also update my redmi 9...it work great ..root also work...
so should I download and use the recovery one or the ota version ?

Use the OTA and you can upgrade from V11.0.4.0.QJCMIXM to V11.0.7.0.QJCMIXM without needing to reset anything or lose any data.
It is just like receiving the update via Wifi..
For some reason, I did not receive the OTA via Wifi as my phone kept saying "No updates available"... Yet here it is.

It's a good version from xiaomi for redmi 9 it's more stable and felt like a real "stable build" .
I'm not existing for miui 12, just felling that it will be buggy
Hi, my mi10 is currently running global v12.0.6 QJBMIXM stable. I have now started to get an OTA message saying v12.2.1.0 RJBMIXM is ready to d/load.
I have read on here some horror stories about the 12.2 version in general, so my question is: Have Xiaomi sorted the bugs in v12 yet ? or should I just keep clear of this 12.2 version altogether.
I also read on some other sites that Xiaomi are telling users not to d/load 12.2. because its so buggy. If this is the case then why are they still pushing it OTA
I returned to Android 10. The Android 11 version currently has many bugs and many software is not compatible. It is recommended to wait 1 month or 2 before updating.

Thanks,,, thats what I was thinking, I've heard a lot about Xiaomi's Android 11 & none of it good. Its just daft that they're pushing an OTA version with so many Known bugs in it.
As far as I know, there were two versions of 12.2.2 OTA updates - one that was quickly revoked and the second one which is suppose to be fixed. If you mention the problems and bugs, it would be nice to give some precise infor for other users to understand what actually is not working and to decide.
I am personally using a XEU ROM, and am getting ready to move to A11 build, after many users confirmed that it's running fine.
12/20/10 is not good.
The gestures don't work well. After exiting google maps, the gestures generally do not react. You have to put the phone to sleep and wake it up again.
The battery wears out faster.
Any problems with charging when the phone is turned off.
I do not recommend it, it's better to install earlier versions, but application cloning and OK Google do not work in them
Mate, you're talking about a weekly beta build. @markcoopz was asking about last stable build.

Did your 12.2.2.0 OTA say if it was a stable or a stable beta.
My 12.2.1.0 OTA says that its a "Limited release for pilot testers". Thats why I was asking if its worth the hassle. If I ignore this update, will I automatically get the next the next ver. or will the OTA system expect me to install this 1 ist.

I have same rom. No problems.
On android 11 both stock and miuimix version is there a decent twrp for it? I have the one chinese variant from littleturtle that works somewhat and none of the other variants of twrp even boot to twrp on 11 they all go back to fastboot. If you do fastboot boot command you get a black screen. The littleturtle build boots on reboot but not on fastboot boot... does not show data to even be able to mount, will flash both stock and miuimix roms and canary magisk but is quirky.

It says Miui12.2.2.0 Stsble
Have the global edition UMI R was solid as long as I did not try to root it,, TWRP (little turtle edition) was buggy and would flash but was limited on what it would do, had to use canary magisk and it was buggy, LR TWRP would loop if you flashed on R but would boot if you waited a while.. literally have a black screen and think its bricked then it comes up... So I downgraded to Q (used MiFlash) was able to flash working twrp (LR edition) and magisk (latest) then went to miuimix Q also with same TWRP and Magisk. Waiting for development on R as I the workarounds for R for the most part did not work on Miui global R. Would reboot phone sometimes ok others to fastboot. Even with Q some reboots go to fastboot and TWRP is still there and working but it will say no OS installed. Dirty flash over it and it comes back like nothing happened even current magisk persisted. Love the speed and phone until it does this. I did not see a great deal of better features with R over Q to justify continued effort until more development occurs. Still not risking Viper4Android on it, Wavelet does work though and offers some of what is in Viper4Android.
I have the global edition and I am on 12.6.0. Had an ota a few weeks ago and went to download but it comes up not found. Now when I check updates I don't get any new one. I assume they have pulled these updates?
I received 12.2.4 EEA this morning. Seems better than 12.2.1 but fonts don't work anymore
My phone is still on MIUI V12.2.2.0 RJBMIXM, i am facing so many issues in this version, system errors, miui crashs, application crashes, cant share anything between applications, and i have been waiting from beginning of December for a new version to be released, but no luck untill now, i wish if i can downgrade to MIUI 12 A10 based
Looks like the CN rom for the 6R finally got the Android 12 update. Who knows when the heck global is gonna get it. For the 6 and 6 pro the global rom didn't get android 12 until 9 months after the china rom lol. So I was wondering who wants to be the scapegoat and test it out for me? I can drop the link of the CN rom if you want. I specifically want to know how performance(most important) and optimization of the rom is with heavy games like Genshin etc.
Hello, just updated to CN Android 12 from global. But I cannot really state anything as I had just bought the device and went straight for the update. Although coming from global A11 I can definitely say that it contains loads of bloatware specific to CN and have many apps utilizing nubia services but again are specific to CN. In relation to gaming performance I found it not lacking at all since I'm coming from SD845. But will test Apex tonight and put in my findings. Also, the Nubia keyboard sucks. It as annoying as it can be because of weird CN shortcuts mapped and the keyboard is way too slow in response unlike Gboard.
Regards,

Hello, can i get the link for the CN Version from Android 12 for the red Magic 6r . I want to Test this Version and will give you a feedback. At the Moment , my red magic 6r is unusable for Gaming since i have installed the latest official global rom v1.24, beceause the Touch Delay was high and the Touch screen does not detect small movements. I had also sent the phone to the service but they did not soved the problem.

I have found the Website to Download the latest CN Firmware Update. Now the Touch screen bug is solved and i can use the phone for Gaming again . Also the Google playstore was further available
Google apps are not available in CN for obvious reasons and are required to be downloaded separately but is fairly easy.

I know, but before i installed the CN Rom, a global rom with Google apps was installed. After the Update, the playstore and Google Apps was further available in CN Rom . I had make a factory reset, After that, the Google Apps are lost.
Its also possible to use the CN Rom v6.10 to make a downgrade. Before i installed the CN rom, the global rom v1.24 was installed. I tried before to make a downgrade from v1.24 to v1.17 but it was not possible. But its possible to downgrade from CN Rom to global V1.17
Reason: the global v1.24 has massive Touchscreen Probleme (he does not detect small movements)
Sorry for my english

Yeah I tried the CN rom once on a previous update months ago and I also had those same issues. I didn't like how many Chinese crapware was installed without a way to remove them and I absolutely hated the keyboard. What is it called Sugoi keyboard or whatever. After a ton of fiddling around I was able to get it to be in a QWERTY layout but I just gave up on it and installed Gboard. I'm thinking of moving to CN again just for the android 12 update but only if it gives a decent performance boost. Hence why I made the thread. Looking forward to your finding on the performance though

Good to hear. Back when I tried the CN rom way back, I also factory reset which removed google apps(since CN doesn't use google stuff) but I just found an apk for the playstore and all the other google apps I needed and it worked no problem. Are you still on the CN Rom 6.10 or did you downgrade back to a global rom? Can you tell me the gaming performance on the CN Rom. I'm curious if the android 12 and all those other game space improvements they did boosted performance.

I think the Performance is the same like Android 11. The phone gets hot on Android 11 and also on CN Android 12. I Play pubg at 90fps. On global v 1.17 i get a light throttling After 60 minutes of Gaming . On CN V6.10 (Android 12) i had not played this Long time, beceause my Focus was at the touchscreen reaction. But i think the phone throttles also on CN Android 12, beceause the phone gets very hot during gaming and without a fan it will destroy itself. The Gaming Center looks a Little bit different, but i have not invested enough time. Sorry At the moment i‘m back on global v1.17, beceause in my opinion the touchscreen works best on this version.
I use this phone also only for gaming, like a Gameboy. To make calls or write messages, i use a other phone. So I can nothing to tell about the battery life on CN Android 12.

Tried Apex Legends on full settings and turned every feature on. The game went pretty smooth with no FPS drops at all. But I just played like 2 matches and the phone wasn't hot as well. The charger was connected with powermode set as "Rise" and "Charge Separation" enabled. Had fun btw. Also, there's this new mascot which wasn't there before and looks kinda annoying instead of intriguing. The phone sometimes locks itself just after I've unlocked it with Fingerprint and needs to be unlocked again. Also, I had to manually adjust all Google apps notification settings and some other apps too because they won't share any notifications on lock screen. Disabled all the CN gunk or uninstalled if available. Gamespace has lots of good features and I admire all of them, don't know if they were present in the Global rom. And finally strangely I'm not able to delete or copy files to the Android folder. Which wasn't an issue on any of my previous unrooted phones.
Anyone here tried to root there phones? Or unlock there bootloader? Thank you

This is what happens (video attached)
Got a Poco M4 Pro 4G about a week ago, after initial set up stock rom updated to 13.0.1 (SKEEUXM). I see there are newer versions but several days later no update is available?
I am desperately looking to update or even downgrade due to a poor light sensor performance - in low ambient light and with auto brightness enabled the screen gets way too dark (sensor goes to 0 lux, when in reality it is not that dark). In a well lit environment it works adequately. Someone mentioned in another forum that after updating, they got rid of the issue.
That (V13.0.1.0.SKEEUXM) is currently the most up-to-date Android 12 firmware for the EEA. I think you could switch back to Android 11 (and a more recent firmware update) manually by unlocking the bootloader and flashing a fastboot package, but it's pretty hands on. Otherwise all you can do is wait for Xiaomi to update their A12 firmware.
Thanks mate, that means my updater is working fine then. I am tempted to go down to android 11 and a more recent firmware really, the sensor is acting terribly on the current one but it's still blind hope that would resolve it.
