Migrating to LineageOS or Global ROM - Xiaomi Mi 5s Plus Guides, News, & Discussion

Hi,
About a year ago my Dad got an Mi 5S Plus and the seller claimed it was on the global ROM but it's clearly not.
We want to switch him to the global ROM or to lineage to remove some of the MIUI bloat and more importantly to fix some apps...
My mum also has the Mi 5S plus and hers came with the global ROM and various apps that work perfectly on hers don't work on my dad's phone.
I think it would be better to go for Lineage to improve battery life and general app compatibility so I'm looking for some advice on how to switch.
I've rooted and installed various ROMs on various phones from HTC Desire Z, Google One, Pixel 2 XL, Samsung S3, HTC One M7 so I've got experience just never done a non-mainstream phone.
The phones details are:
MIUI Version: 11.0.2 Stable (OBGCNXM)
Security Patch: 2018 / 10 / 01
Baseband Version: TH20c1.9-1023_1816_8e1bfb2
Kernel Version: 3.18.71-perf-g5edcf86
Thanks

Samsung S6 Edge Upgrade to Latest Andriod

Hello,
i have one of my old phone ( which i use only for Google maps purpose). its AT&T version phone ( unlocked after contract is expired)
Model Number: Samsung-SM-G925A
Andriod Version: 7.0
Baseband Version: G925AUCS7ERC1
I have recently upgraded the phone from old version to Andriod 7 ( by keeping valid at&t sim)
after the upgrade i see battery life got degraded a lot
Is there a way that i can upgrade my current phone to Latest andriod ( verion 8 or 9) . if so how can i do it ?
You can do it only using a custom ROM. S6 will not receive any updates
are there any custom roms for s6 edge available ? where can i get it
Yes, there are many custom ROM: Resurrection Remix and LineageOS are the most famous. I advise you Ultimate Oreo Note 8 port, you can find it on XDA. I can't submit the link of it, but you can simple find it
can u please give me the url of the post so that i will look into it and install
I can't, it's invalid for XDA. You can simply find "Ultimate Oreo note 8 port v.1 s6 " with Google, it's the first XDA result.
Also, note that S6 Edge battery is terrible, mostly after most time. Custom ROM probably wouldn't help you a lot
is this one ?

Yes is this

Which are the most stable and bug free android 9 and android 10 roms for realme 3 pro

i recently rooted my phone trying to install viper4android which just wouldn't work on my android 10 stock rom no matter the workaround. so i was thinking of going for a stock rom for the first time. most threads on roms don't have many bugs listed unless you search through comments where it gets kinda confusing. so if you have any experience with custom roms on realme 3 pro, you can help a guy in need . i also included android 9 because viper4andoid is apparently easier installed on android 9 than 10.
I would say pixel experience but the dev announced that he is dropping support

Most stable ROM currently?

Hi all,
I flashed a very early build of Proto's ROM about 2 years ago, here's the link to his project:
[ROM][PORT][10.0.0] MIUI 12 China Dev & Xiaomi EU [27.04.20]
MIUI 12 China Dev & Xiaomi EU for Mi Pad 4+! So, it seems like Xiaomi decided to forget about us.. and left us with MIUI 10 and miserable Android 8.1.. But! Thanks to porting we can use Pie vendor from MI 6X/Redmi Note7 and MIUI 11! You can...
forum.xda-developers.com
Since then, I haven't updated my MiPad 4. Just wondering what's the most stable ROM on the market currently? Xiaomi.EU or AOSP like CRDroid or something else? I mainly care about having the basic features that aren't broken, working camera and good battery life.
Try ArrowOS 11... it's fast & stable....

Question Android 12

Hi there!
I've just got my Mi 11 Lite and wonder if there is a whay to get the new android preview-version?
So far i know, there is a possibilty for Mi 11 (not lite). Maybe someone can port it for our phones?
Thanks in advace
Not yet. Xiaomi is intenally testing Android 12 on many devices already and some devices are already in beta testing (available for registered beta testers, first test are always done on chinese market, Global versions come later). I reckon Android 12 for Mi 11 Lite (4G and 5G) comes in Q1/Q2 22, it's not flagship and low/mid class phones are always updated later.
you have GSI version available if you want to test android 12....
