I got a Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 with Chinese ROM already installed. I'm very happy with the phone itself but wanted to install the Global Developer ROM.
Downloaded the Flashboot ROM from miui and flashed according to the tutorial in the wiki and everything seems to be working fine.
Since I haven't installed much on the chinese ROM, I decided to also reset the phone so I can start fresh. The problem I have right now is that I cannot get past the Google login to access the phone.
After logging into the account it keeps saying 'Please sign in using one of the owner's accounts for this device' even though this is the account I used previously with this phone without any issues.

If you can, install twrp and use the inbuilt file manager to delete Google setup app from /system

Also I believe there's a module allowing you to skip the setup wizard. Just flash magisk 16 and that module zip shall do？

I decided to update my phone from CM13 to CM14.1 the other day without having read anything about CM14 and not realising how new it was (yes I know, stupid thing to do!).
So after the update I've had nothing but problems with google services not working properly, so I uninstalled google services from the apps menu within the phone, downloaded the Android 7.1, ARM, Stock version of GAPPS from opengapps.org and booted my phone into TWRP and flashed the newest version of gapps.
This fixed the issue with google services not responding, however now none of my apps work.
Anytime I try to load an app such as facebook, email, browser. My phone will freeze for several minutes and then the app will just tell me its stopped responding.
Does anybody have any advice on what to do? (I dont care if the result is that I have to wipe the phone and lose everything on it, just want my phone to work again!)
Edit: an additional piece of info, any time I try to do something that requires root access (for example moving an app to my SD card) my phone will tell me that I don't have root access, even though I must because I'm using cyanogenmod...

Try doing a clean flash of the rom along with the respective gapps package. You have to flash the rom and gapps together. And for the root issue, you have to first turn ON root from the developer options in settings.

Thank you for your assistance, all is working well now
Hi guys, is there a way to change the carrier name? The correct name for my carrier is "telecom Italia spa", not "... Italiz spa". Thanks in advance.
Hello guys,
My note 5 pro bootloader is unlocked and was linked to my Mi Account earlier. Later on, I installed AOSP Extended ROM and used it for few days. Today I tried to installed Miuipro and Globerom and this where thee problem started. These roms installed ok and booted up as well but i got the "Activate this device". Usually i used to enter my MI account password and it would unlock and i was able to proceed with further setup. But today, when I entered my password, it said "couldn't verify mi account id. can't connect to the network".
I tried changing the password for my Mi account but its the same issue. So, I logged in to my Mi Cloud account and removed the device from my account hoping that would delink the device from my account, but that did not happen.
I tried installing official rom, did not work, did a format of the device and then installed the rom again, not working, installed the latest firmware, not working
Im able to install custom roms and use the device without any issues but unable to install any MIUI based rom Official or Custom.
Can someone please help me get out of this situation?

Yes, i was able to resolve the issue by following the vpn method. First install official Miui 9.5.13. When you install this version, you will get an option to skip the Mi account verification process. After completing the setup, install a VPN app, I used Turbo VPN as Zero vpn did not work for me. Set the server to UK and then go to Settings > Mi Account > Sign In
Once you sign in, go to the Mi account again and sign out and confirm. this will delete the device from your account and you won't be asked to activate the device when you install MIUI 10.

Hello guys. When I've update my Mi 5s to Miui 9.5 I've followed the guide of this forum to how fix the uncertified device issue, using Device ID. When I've flashed Miui 10 from MiFlash, I've deleted all my files and data, but when I've finished my configuration I've noticed that Google Pay didn't work. This is because when you register a phone to Google it become certified, but if you reset the phone you lost the certification. So, now the problem is: I've done same procedure again, but this time it didn't work, the device is uncertified, I've tried also to delete all PlayStore cache and files, but nothing is change. So, without root or something, can I fix this issue or is a new politic of Xiaomi with Miui 10 or oreo (i don't know)? What do you suggest to do?
When I unlocked my device and installed TWRP the first rom I flashed was Miui.eu, everything started normally showing the options to add the google account and make the initial settings, however I had to install the global stockrom through Miflash and after installing TWRP and Miui.eu again when starting it was no longer shown the option to add the google account and not even restore my apps, just the Miui settings, does anyone have any idea what may have happened?
Hi there. I'm new to Xiaomi/MIUI and would appreciate any help with the following issues.
Mi 10T – Global Stable 12.0.8 – stock launcher – MIUI optimization ON – de-bloated with ADB
I can't see how much storage space is being taken up by each installed app/package. They all show a "0" value.
I can't find Running Services under Developer Options.
I can't permanently disable usage access for System Launcher. It re-enables itself once I exit the settings menu.
App icons aren't updating. For example, Gmail, Maps, Photos and FB Messenger still display their old icons, despite me using the latest versions of those apps.
Google Play still displays the older menu style, despite me using the latest version of that app.
System Apps Updater doesn't detect OTA updates, despite several newer versions of MIUI 12 system apps existing on APK Mirror. This issue presented itself before I began de-bloating.
Updater doesn't detect OTA updates. I had to sideload 12.0.8 in order to update from the phone's original OS version (12.0.7). This issue presented itself before I began de-bloating.
Full disclosure: I'd rather not turn off MIUI optimization to see if that resolves any of these issues, as I'm not keen on resetting permissions (again).
Edit:
When I uninstall an app via the app drawer, a gap is left in its place. The icon of the uninstalled app is still there, it just turns invisible. I can uninstall it over and over, but it doesn't go away until I reboot the phone.
There doesn't appear to be a way to turn off the phone's equalizer. I can't use Blackplayer's equalizer until I do so. I don't know if the same applies to other music players.
Edit:
There doesn't appear to be a way to add emergency contacts or access them via the lockscreen emergency dialer. Emergency information (com.android.emergency) exists within the list of installed apps.
I'm on Global 12.0.7, unlocked, rooted and debloated. Stock recovery. What did you exactly do to update to 12.0.8? I do not want to wipe and I'm a little confused with the procedure...

I downloaded it from here, went to About Phone in Settings, clicked on the OS version number in the top left, clicked on the 3-dot menu in the top right and installed it via Mi File Manager.
AFAIK, you can only use Mi File Manager to install the update via this method. If you've disabled or uninstalled it, nothing will happen when you click that menu option – even if you've installed another file manager.

I just tried this. It reboots and starts updating... but goes from 0.X% to 100% in two seconds, then it boots and it's still 12.0.7

Finally I booted into TWRP and flashed 12.0.9 from there, no issues.
