Redmi Note 8T/Willow Lag - Redmi Note 8 Questions & Answers

Hi guys, i'm going throught a problem wich Is driving me Crazy..
I tried nearly every rom for willow, pe, derp, havoc, lineage, but none of these seems to be entirely snappy and smooth.
I tried different kernels too, but no Launcher used to improve. The major problem about this Is the Launcher, that lag makes every launcher horrible.
Is It Just me or i'm searching too much? I don't care about gaming, i just need a comfortable ui.
The only rom that seems to be decent Is miuimix 2.0, not even official MIUI...
I can't underatand if that's a software or a hardware issue...
Please help, i'm starting to hate my phone.

Every Q ROM is plagued by the lag issue. The culprit is the broken HWC in the source/device tree, which is apparently the base for all of the Q roms . So unless someone fixes the source, the lag is not going anywhere.
The best thing to do right now is to wait for the devs to fix the device tree and hopefully we can have a decent Android 10 custom ROM experience.

Wich rom?
By the way i found out that basically the problem Is the firmware. I Always used to flash fw before rom, but with Q roms that's not necessary. Most of the Q rom work best without any fw, unless specified. Only problematic rom Is crdroid wich lags depending on wallpaper...

hi , I have tried all the roms with this smartphone. certainly the most fluid is lineage 16. and that's what I'm using . and I feel really good .

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.

Best MIUI custom rom

Hello,
Guys please I need your help with something, I wanna flash a custom rom I haven't unlocked my device yet so this is my first time I just wanted your opinion.
Xiaomi eu to guarantee future updates.
Mi globe has some extra things and also lets you customize the rom right before downloading.
Epic rom and multirom are also good (epic is in limbo, it's not clear that it'll continue getting updates as it was on nougat but you can try).
But unless you really like miui or prioritize gaming performance I suggest you to install an aosp based rom such as los (or another rom that's based on either los or aosp). Also there're some aosp or los based builds that doesn't suffer on gaming performance.

I just wanted a good decent stable rom and bug-free so i though that any rom based on MIUI would be much better than the aosp based ones.
So what do you think for me i had a sony before and i was changing rom frequently.. and actually i sick of it i just wanted a very stable rom with OTA updates.

Then use xiaomi eu. But to me aosp roms are bug free and stable. No rom side issues with the official ones. So don't worry about rom issues while using them. Just have the recommended firmware version and enjoy.

I use my phone only for web browsing, spotify youtube vanced, gps, gcam, messenger...but each app take a lote of time to start and this is not good,.my phone is rooter with magisk and it is realy good to have adaway ...
Which rom do you advice for a guy like me, i don t play game, i want the smoothest rom, i don t care about android version, if i have to downgrade my phone on android 6 marshmallow, no probleme for me and if for your the best is oxygen os, i will return, sory my english is not very good

If the thread is not in the right oneplus 3 forum place, thank you to advice me where can i put this thread.
Thank, from Belgium
Anyone can not share his experience or send me somehere with the same ask?
I would say OOS9.0.5 is rock solid when it comes to stability when paired with custom kernel.
I was using it since it released with HDK kernel & never faced any issues.
But if you are into more features & customizations, give it a try to xtended or havoc. Both are pretty stable.
I recently switched to Havoc as I was missing few features on OOS.
Try OOS9 without any kernel
Seems to work pretty well

Thank you, i think i will try havoc because i used oos 9 since the begining of android 9, but the life battery was realy short and the ui laggy.
I heard here or on another websites skydragon and resurection remix are realy good roms ? Is it true from your experience?

I am doing a backup of the application via titanium backup and my rom via the recovery in case it is fail somewhere, then I will install havoc and even what it is worth, the concern oxygen os and piexel experience ,is that the baterie is catastophic, not very fluid and I very often lose the wifi 5 ghz so obliged to fall back on the 2.4 ghz

What Rom is most stable of 10.x builds?

Hi guys i used to be a active here on xda but since i got my one plus i kind of left all this behind. Im now looking to bring some life back to my 5t but i want something as stable as possible as it is a work device. Thanks!
This is a hard question because most people didn't try all custom roms. I suggest you check each Android 10 rom status here, if it's mentioned "stable", it should be good enough for daily use.
Any rom which doesn't use h2os firmware.

Buggy
i tried pixel experience and OOS 10 beta , pixel experience is a daily driver not sure about oos10beta tho cause i just got it today but it seems stable
Mainly I'd avoid custom roms cause I'll miss OOS features,no matter how good the custom rom is
I've tried Pixel experience only.
The battery life is more or less the same during normal use (if you play game, the battery will empty soon).

I want to squeese more RAM and I don't like MIUI too much, I feel spyed...
Then i will suggest some from my experience:
- For customize: AncientOS and Nusantara are good for me
- For camera: If your phone is India one, LineageOS GSI from Timjosten is the best, based on Q-Oss and use Miui Cam with it feature (not ANX)
- For battery/perfomance: Try some custom kernels and find out with are the best for you
- For A11 with A12 exprerience: DotOs A11 is good
- For A12: not stable, but some can use at daily rom (AncientOS), some other A12 roms has some other bugs, Bluetooth issue.... And mostly screen recorder won't work by defauft, need to install other app or do something idk.
- And some other roms with their special you need to flash to find out.
- AOSP has some random bugs. And it's good for me doesn't mean it's good for you. Maybe just flash and find out with one suitable.
- If you dont know where to find these roms and their flash guide, you can try type Redmi note 8 pro Official or Update on Telegram. Idk why they drop many updates and new roms in XDA
