Face unlock - Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Questions & Answers

Just got a mi mix 2 delivered and updated to global 9.5.8.0 which I assume is the latest.
I can't find face unlock code n settings. Is it not available yet another in global stable version?

Is it in security, Smart Lock like most Android phones?

Can't see security. Been using omni rom on my redmi note 4 up to today but still on miui on the mix 2 currently.

Smart Lock doesn't work in the lastest MIUI versions, but it is working like a charm in ABC rom
I'm going to INSTALL AICP. Probably it will works too.

Strange how it advertised it as available in oreo miui along with full screen gestures.
Will probably unlock bootloader and go custom route too.

Will full screen gestures work in custom roms? I am not a fan of on screen navigation.
Also what sort of sot is achievable on custom?

You have ported MIUI gestures by Arasthel in AndyYan's RR. If you want gestures on any other rom you just need to use an app like edge gestures.
SoT varies per usage so I can't give an answer to that. Just try and see the difference for yourself with your particular usage.

I think gestures would have to be as good as miui for me to switch as they work perfect. If custom roms don't have same one I will have to give it a miss and do without face unlock.
I love custom roms on my RN4 especially omni but deffo need gestures as can't live with awful on screen buttons.

RR has the exact same gestures as MIUI and supports face unlock.
In fact all the custom ROMs I've tried so far supported face unlock, so take your pick.
Just make sure you install gapps nano or higher as pico doesn't install face unlock (yes, to have face unlock you need gapps).

Just need to wait for bootloader unlock and will give em a try.
Gonna miss my RN4 10 hours plus sot though but this is a nice device. Hopefully the custom roms will. Give 7hrs sot plus and I will be happy.

Face unlock is currently available in the MIUI China ROM but not in the Global ROM. Maybe outside of China they are afraid of getting sued for its implementation of face unlock like One Plus was. The version of face unlock people liked on the 5T is the one they got sued for. The current version One Plus uses is crap.

And OnePlus didn't steal technology for its face unlock. It was patent troll garbage about illuminating the screen to make screen unlock faster and more accurate. The company that sued One Plus invented no technology or software that One Plus used. They were allowed to patent the concept of illuminating the screen which is ridiculous but since the US courts upheld it we probably won't get a face unlock function that works well because nobody is going to want to pay royalties to the patent troll.

I'm using the China Stable rom and it's not available. Maybe on the China Beta or Dev rom.

Had mi mix 2 a day and selling it already. I prefer my RN4. It's not a massive jump imo. Just shows how good budget/mid range phones are now.
RN4 does everything I need with better battery life to boot. Plus mix is too heavy for its size.

I thought it was in China Stable but if it's not there you must be right and it's just in the Dev version. I'm running Global Dev and honestly it's better than Global Stable because it includes bug fixes that were implemented after the last stable build. You might want to consider the most recent China Dev if face unlock interests you. I don't think there will be any more updates to MIUI 9 for our device.

I'm not too bothered about it to be honest. Not sure if I'd ever use it.
I received an update two days ago to 9.6.2.0 so they're still updating the China Stable.

That's interesting. Global Developer hasn't been updated since April 18th. The last update to Global Stable was probably in March.

I don't think people are getting the updates on the build dates and you can't determine the build dates on the Xiaomi website because they only list build numbers.
Mi Mix 2 owners on the official MIUI Forum have been complaining that the Global Stable ROM hasn't been updated since March. The China ROM has received more recent updates.
What month security patch are you on?
As for the face unlock feature it's currently only in the closed beta China ROM--at least where the MI Mix 2 is concerned.

It's possible that you are right but you need a third party app to determine the build dates. Xiaomi doesn't provide the information in the phone settings or on their download page as far as I can tell. MIUI build numbers aren't consistent across phone models either so it's hard to determine when various builds were released.

All the releases are announced and available for download on the MIUI forum if you don't get the ota. I'm just taking the dates from there. Either way I'm still getting monthly updates like clockwork.
My security patch is May 1st.

considering buying - but software update?

I am considering of buying this phone, but I am concerned about software update since I dont want to get stuck with Marshmallow forever. and I dont want to deal with custom roms. (dont have the time or patience for that)
So, will this phone receive Nougat?
Don't buy mi5s. Xiaomi doesn't support this model like mi5 or mi max. Still no regular updates released.
Thank you. It seems odd that older model is supported and newer model is not. In that case I will not buy the device. I was planning to hold on to it for about 2-3 years and there is no way I am going to get stuck with Android 6 for that long.
What about the Redmi note 4X? Any chance for this phone to get Nougat?
Have you thought about the mi6?

I did, but I wont buy it for 2 reason
1. Its way more expensive than the mi5s.
2. It doesnt have a global rom yet and I assume it will take some time until it does
For the price of the mi6, I would rather get the OP3t which is cheaper and already updated to latest android

My only concern is the camera

Is the Xiaomi Mi 6 Worth it?

Hey
Thanks for any help, and sorry if this isn't the proper space for it.
I've a Sprint S6 Edge, but I'm considering changing it for the new Xiami Mi 6. Is it a good deal?
Am I going to miss the 2K Amoled Screen? I'm going to feel the difference in the camera? And the IR sensor? Am I going to miss it that much?
I think MI 6maybe better than S6E, there's a 835 in it.
If u want keep on Sprint, do not purchase the Chinese brand cell phone which not sold by Sprint. Too pain.
If u can transfer to T-Mobile or AT&T, that a great phone recently.
Great phone, got it today.
i buy it today. so i waiting.
Xiaomi only uses good chipset nothing else, S6 Edge is better, dont buy xiaomi

Why? I have Mi5 for a year,and it shames my father S6E in almost every aspect. Only thing going for S6E is screen...,maybe...
Well, now I'm using MI 6, I got it for have a month. The hardware is good except some problems caused by SD835(such as WiFi...), but the software is not so stable at the moment, for example, in latest version of MIUI the quick charge was limited...
It will be better after a few days, anyway software problems are easy to fix.

I don't think so. Used both S6 Active and S7 Active, I would say Mi 6 is better than both.

Which version MIUI you have? I have no problem with both the latest stable China and Custom EU rom (based on Dev China Rom).... (I used 45W charger of Xiaomi which support both USB PD and QC 3.0)

Since there's no release date for that version it's a gamble. No one knows when or if it's to be released. I'm just as eager as the rest of you guys. Hey I even bought 10 cases for a phone yet to be released

I think Xiaomi is worse when it's android update.I previously had Redmi 3s prime which was launched with android m and still it is android m.
You can expect android o for Rn5pro.Dont think about P and Q.
But as this device will have project treble support we only can expect higher android versions.
The only reason I chose Xiaomi again because it offer good specs in bugdet and the existence of XDA.

This makes me wonder, Will the rn5 global comes with Indian 5 pro specs or China 5 specs? Coz both global and indian version shares same rom according to md5 hash on mi website.

I'm pretty sure it'll come with chinese specs
You can have a look at the official China version specs here : http://en.miui.com/thread-2130525-1-1.html
And here is the Global version specs :
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Glo...artphone-Snapdragon-636-Octa/32854817812.html
For example, you may notice that the global version will have B20 frequency for 4G, unlike the Chinese version, but otherwise they are the same specs as the Chinese version

Mi A3's life is on hold until Android 10! Xiaomi should have just launched the device with Android 10, atleast it would have attracted the customers who ran away bcos 720p.
Funny enough, i am seeing some other companies launch midrangers with 720p!

Thats true even with respect to Custom ROM support, as some devs maybe waiting for Android 10 to be rolled out and the sources be updated, but it's not the only factor in regards to custom ROMS. Mi A3 is one of the best all round devices and I am sure it would get solid development.

Fod has been fixed in pixel experience.
Beast rom got an update which probably kanged the fix too.
There are a few ROMs that are Android 10 available for this device just not yet posted here on XDA.
Some GSI treble ROMs also work but are a bit buggy. Especially with fod.
Nobody is waiting for Android 10 the ROMs are already being worked on it's just patience isn't really a strong point amongst people nowadays. Everyone just feels like they deserve everything now now now

Pls link me to other sites with development on this device, i will like to follow them and enlighten myself. Honestly Xda is trusted, that's why most people are hanging here waiting for devs. The little shortcomings of this device can only be addressed through custom roms and devs. Thnx for opening my eyes beyond.

And yes, that HD+ screen thing is very annoying. I just hope it doesn't become yet another stupid trend with manufacturers
Is anyone facing compass sensor bug in September security patch.
Xiaomi announced its MIUI 11 rollout. Although it has nothing to do with Mi A3, Xiaomi Devs may prioritize the rollout of MIUI 11 rather than Android 10 for Mi A3. So we have to see how Xiaomi manages to rollout Android 10 to Mi A3 before end of October.

Not too much, if you calibrate at the first start. My problem is when you call or listen an audio on whatsapp, screen black and can't unlock without power button

Xiaomi did not release Android 10 yet still October Patch but this also might imply that Android 10 rollout maybe pushed to early November.
We got October patch this month. So Android 10 won't be available at the end of October
Might be pushed to November
I will add the sources, on why shortly.
Customer Care States No Information(Multiple executives said the same here is one of them):
Chat 1
Customer Care's Information is not solid enough
Look at this chat. He even asks me to ask the XDA dev . Also the fact that few Customer Care executives are saying they have no info means that initial October plan might just be an excuse.

You need to be patient... Because a10 is not fully stable.... You need to wait because once its out, it is surely stable on EU
You are right, but we waited for more than half a year now

Other companies also experience it. Not all. Though we are android one but afaik we are the only sd665 who has a10... Development really is a pain not to mention pandemic involved. At least they are doing something...
Funny I got an update of 32.69M.
Not much difference.
Anyone has a link for the rom?

If coming from 10 thats is small. Because it is only bug fixes. E.g. return of xiaomi branded sensors so fp icon appears when picking up phones and EIS now works

Odd. The update for me appears as a 1.33 GB.
Update is 32,69mb for me (already on android 10 april update). Gonna report back if I find any fixes/bugs.
edit: as expected it didn't fix system wide long exposure photos limit set to 0,3 s max.
If they don't see it as a bug but a "feature reduction" then am gonna go china and make them eat raw bats.

There are plenty of new phones with SDM665 running Android 10 just fine, the Motorola G line and Nokia 5.3 do come to mind. SDM665 is nothing but a slightly tweaked SDM660, which is running Android 10 just fine in plenty of other devices. My Mi A2 runs Android 10 just great! (not with Xiaomi's stock ROM, though...)
The pandemic is just the latest excuse in a long-list of excuses. Did they have a pandemic last year when they effed up the Mi A2 upgrade? Did they have a pandemic when they effed up the Mi A1 upgrades? Let's just face facts, Xiaomi doesn't give a rats arse about the Android One phones. They just (barely) fulfill their contractual obligations so that Google doesn't force them out of the certification.

Well there are things done right and some things are just hacks that when people use both they are the same thats why sometimes custom rom fixes first. Well another thing android one is less profitable than miui

Arrived at the global version with many fixes. FP is running very well , EIS it is now available again , still the shutter speed is not fixed. I am very interesting to see the update on EU roms , i expect a bug free version there
new update is pretty good for me...
