MIUI Stable vs MIUI Developer/Weekly - Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers

Guys,
I know most will suggest that developer ROM gets updated weekly while stable on monthly but I'm not asking the regime.
I am more interested that currently in Jan-18 and Feb-18, what are the main or big differences or advantages in Developer vs Stable and what will I miss if I flash Stable version.
I know I can test myself by flashing but I have very slow internet and downloading stable, then testing, then downloading developer for comparison will take 2-3 days for me.
I would appreciate if someone who is trying both versions these days can help me out.
Never mind, I found that Stable is Nougat so I cannot use it.

[Q] MIUI stable 2.3.5a changelog

I noticed that DHD has a stable version now. Cannot find a changelog for it to find the feature differences between stable/development versions. Has anyone tried the stable version? If so what's your verdict? Stay with development or keep the stable? Thank you.

Actually you are right! I just figured it out as ya said it. I reckon it should be the same as the latest beta version, Because recently there is not much complain about any FC errors.
May be I flash it when I go home.

[q] cm7 nightly & cm7

Hey!
I want to put CM rom on my gf's wildfire and i didn't find anywhere the difference between the regular and the nightly version... can someone explain it to me?
Nightlies are experimental versions, which may be better than the stable, but, it may sometimes also have bugs not present in the stable. The building of nightlies is a continuous process, with a new nightly released everyday.
Another difference is that you do not get "official" support on the CM Bug tracker for nightlies, but, this is available for RC / Stable versions.
For your gf's phone, I would probably recommend you go with the stable.
thank you for your help!
stable is better for father, i think

More Cyanogenmod9 Questions...

Ok question, I just realized there are 3 types of cyanogemod9: Stable, RC, & Nightly.
Can someone explain what each one is and whats the difference between them?
And perhaps tell me which one is best over all?

Hi,
RC stands for Release Candidate. You can compare theese ROMs as beta versions. There is no guarantee that they are bug free or everything is working. You can use this roms if you want som early previews.
Stable are the stable releases. Theese roms are out of the beta phase and they are suggested to be stable. By this i mean they should be mostly bug free and should be smooth running. Use thees roms if you want your phone to run safe and reliable.
Nightly roms are the roms that are coded nightly, they contain newest tweaks or updates but they are not fully tested. Nighltys are the RCs of newer stable versions so to say. You can use them if you want the newest stuff but there might be performance or bug issues.
I hope this helps.

Good information here, I'm running CM9 RC2, would you say CM9 Stable would perform better?

I would say stable would perform better, since it was released after the RC2. At least it should be the same performance...

When to expect a stable version?

Hi,
I am looking for a new phone and I want then install LineageOS on it and remove the pre-installed Android. But I also want a phone that is working and not one I have to solve problems and looking for new updates every day. So in short: I want a stable LineageOS.
Problem is: I cannot find information when to expect a stable LineageOS version. All I can find at the LineageOS website is, that the current versions are nightlies. So when can I expect a stable version? Or do I something completely misunderstand here? Will there never be one common people like me can use in a more or less productive way?
I hope this questions don't come rude. I know this is a voluntarily project and I have the highest respect for all the developers. I just wanna know.

Currently the best rom for Mi 6?

Hi guys!
Im going to buy xiaomi mi6 soon, so i want you to share with me your opinions about custom roms you used. Could you tell me what rom is the least bugged and gives me the most comfortable work with this device? Maybe the global stable is? Generally im looking for the best rom, and them futures.
If you are keeping bootloader locked then go for global beta most likely.
If you will unlock then the stable ROMs are based on 7.1.2.
AOSPA has a good reputation but LineageOS 14 is about to go official for Sagit.
The 8.1 ROMs are stable enough for most uses and so far I had no issues. Just waiting for Oreo kernel sources from Xiaomi for more stability.
There is no overall best ROM. Just the best for you.
Most people here don't like MIUI though.
Its alright but for anyone who's used to AOSP style ROMs they will not feel at home using it.
Its like an iOS splice of Android leaning more heavily to Android.

MIUI gives the best experience for me, most of time I flash weekly ROM's from Xiaomi.eu. They have stable too, if you don't want to flash every week and you don't mind trying new features. Xiaomi.eu team do a great job and sometimes fix some issues with official ROM's.
You have more MIUI based ROM's like Globe Rom, you can customize before downloading and Epic Rom I'm using this week.
If you like AOSP 'flavour' you can try Resurrection Remix (RR) very customizable via settings, and the classic Lineage OS (the old Cyanogen Mod).
Give a try some of them an tell us you experience

MIUI Global Stable - Stock ROM back in May, pretty okay, except battery drain was pretty bad. About 80-100mA drain during standby
Xiaomi.eu - the first non-official ROM I use, but still a MIUI-based. At least they give consistent weekly update and improvement. Battery drain problem was fixed here. But alas, I still hate MIUI's notification handling. The moment AOSP-based ROM pop, I made a switch, which is
LineageOS 14 by Xiaobai - first AOSP based ROM for Mi6. It was pretty good. I used LOS14 on my LG G2 back then, so it was pretty much as good as it can get
Lineage 15.0 by NisseCool/UnknownDev420 - Probably one of the first Oreo/non-MIUI ROM available here. Still lots of bugs, but usable. But phone gets really hot (up to 47c during load). Project is getting less update since December. Then finally I made a jump to
crDroid (Android 8.1) by Verevka - It has all the bugs in LOS15.0 fixed and have the goodness of MIUI camera. The downside right now is that QC3.0 isn't working. You're capped at 1500mA charging instead of 3000mA, which is pretty okay considering it'll get fixed and the ROM is still getting updated regularly.
Thanks guys, you are really helpfull. The roms you described have OTA update future? I like to enjoy with installing custom roms etc. but i dont want to manually update os after all updates.
I think Epic ROM from MrRaines is the only custom ROM we have here that has OTA. Though I've never tried it before.
Which rom do you guys think has the best battery performance?? I am using RR now and getting a SoT of around 7 hrs to %20

Did anyone try the flymeOS that is new for mi6
rn im using MIUI global beta with android 8.0.0 and very smooth here. However, as soon as official Lineage OS is out im installing it. Ive already tested other custom roms such as AEX and another one based on android 8 (not miui) and i was very happy although i left due to poor camera and some bug which didnt allow me to update one app precisely which i used, so had to go back
for now im on miui eu stable.Bugs free battery is very good and ofc is fast.
