Well, i recently bought this phone, already applied to unlock bootloader but i have to wait a week, so in the meantime i'm learning about roms based on xiaomi and custom roms...
My main concern is, i'm running MIUI Global 11.0.3 | Stable | 11.0.3(PCOIDXM) with security patch from 2020-01-01. I saw other guys with newers MIUI versions than mine, so i found about Xiaomi.EU, i read it is the best MIUI rom but i would like to get some recommendations...
Also, my main objective is to get an stable rom with good battery usage, having root and maybe install xposed with magisk but this last is not that important.
I 'm also confused about if when i charge Xiaomi EU to my phone will it keep receiving OTA? or what should i do in case i want to go back and be able to receive OTA?
Las question is, i found this site https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/20-3-19.54975/ and the last version is xiaomi.eu_multi_HMNote8_20.3.19_v11-9.zip, is it compatible with all variants of Xiaomi RN8?, i found that there are 2 RN8 versions, a Global Version and an Indonesian version, comparing MIUI version i think i have and indonesian version, does the variant is important in case i want to use xiaomi eu?
Ohh, i see a did a lot of question but i post this in the hope that you guys can help this newbie to tweak his RN8

Actually RN8 has not 2 but 4 versions; Global, Chinese, Indonesian and Indian.
You can use it on any RN8 unlocked version no matter regions, it's set to global.
Since years I'm using Xiaomi.eu ROMs and over other MIUI based ROMs it's way better, great battery performance.
This ROM ever has the latest security patch updates cause is built over the Chinese version.
And regarding OTA updates; Xiaomi.eu ROMs have weekly updates.
What about the Dialer and Messaging apps? Is it the stock MIUI one or the Google ones?

honestly it doesn't have the latest security patch versions....they use old ones and advertise newest....latest beta version for example use security patches from September and they change it in build.prop so that in phone settings it says latest march/april whatever security patch...following are the two lines :
Code:
ro.build.version.security_patch=

I didn't mind that they do that, I would expect from other non reliable site to do such bad practice, many people trust in their. I didn't check from the other ROMs that are based on their too, eg., Mi Globe, etc. Let me ask you how do you know or you have some source regarding to share with us?

I know because I'm using EU beta myself..so my source which is me..is never wrong..I don't trust other websites etc too...other miui roms like miui mix,minovo,mi room etc are all built on EU so they have the same thing..old security patch..advertised as new one.

Apart from the weekly securtiy patches, is it any better than the indian rom (11.0.3) for the note 8?
Secondly, is the Indian version really behind in software updates from the global version (in terms of changes and security patches) or is it just the numbering of the versions different?

Well like I mentioned in my previous replies, you won't get any weekly patches or monthly patches for that matter...EU uses september security patch and changes build.prop so that it appears latest in phone settings...among other things it is better than stock rom (indian,global,etc etc) as it's debloated,optimized,deodexed and tweaked a lil bit..also it has all features included in china roms every week so that is cool...it also has all ads removed...although I debloat more..sure you can debloat and do everything else on your indian rom too but you have to wait for stable builds for long and you gotta repeat the debloating all over again everytime you update...
regarding difference between indian and global...mainly it is the miui apps on indian rom and google apps on global..also a bit of themes and stuff on indian and wifi calling on global...rest it's all same....don't go on the numbering of versions too much...it's all the same with a bit of this and that difference like I said.

Here's the thing..Most miui custom roms like miui mix,minovo,miroom etc etc are all based on eu so they don't have updated security patches....try aosp based roms or stick to stock roms if you really want updated security patches..
i like miui eu

Can confirm this ROM is better than the stock. But don't build it with magisk, it bootlooped for me, just flash it after. The beta seems to have new features to, such as when installing apps, you get options to clear cache or delete the APK file if it's sideloaded. You also need orangefox recovery, didn't work with twrp when I tried.

my note 8t just had an ota update u.k 11.0.2.0 stable, has everyone else had this update.
Yea I got the update too, two weeks ago when I bought it in Germany (had MIUI 10 installed before but upgraded immediately).
But I guess the official miui download site has already a newer version: MIUI 11.0.3.0.
Checkout for the Redmi Note 8T EEA (PCXEUXM) as you got the EU version as well as me. The page says MIUI 10 but it is definitely MIUI 11. This version has a newer Android Security Patch level (December 19) and official theme support. I'm using it right now.
But there is also this page which got 11.0.5.0. I haven't tried this version yet. Maybe someone could give some feedback on this.
I also saw 11.0.4.0 floating somewhere on this Forum.
in settings on my note 8t it says miui global and not eea, iv heard eea version has less adds inside apps ? on my global you have to turn off adds in each app one by one, is it the same in eea, if not id rather have eea.

Ive searched for miui pro but a thread here at xda suggests its not good with a lot of bugs and inconvinience can anyone suggest a good miui based custom rom like xiaomi.ey just because they dropped the idea to work on this device even though now that every other roms are working just smooth plz someone suggest or give me any link so that i can proceed to install thanks in advance

They dropped so early, the bricks issues were solved without almost any risk following the proper steps and all the anti-brick files are there. I didn't find nothing based on Android 10 but only in Pie, this is the recovery to use for https://drive.google.com/file/d/1-5OlIttlKKI82_AD3q6WFaI0J34pfbDe/view and this is the ROM https://mega.nz/file/9BIiQQzL#YKRjCr5tQCb6LcKluKpVl2BsQaZ2e6jD2W-IoN-afhE
I don't know if some of them is the same version but through this tool https://www.xiaomitool.com/V2/ you'll found the Xiaomi.eu v11.0.2.0 stable and the Xiaomi.eu developer 9.11.21
I'm currently using the Indonesian v12.0.2.0, rooted, debloated unnecessary apps and is smooth so far, I used Xiaomi.eu by years but I don't miss it at all.

A guy here is claiming to have a Miui Pro ROM based on Android 10 https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/xiaomi-eu-hmnote8pro-mtk-begonia-support.53542/post-522711 and asking to Google this is the result https://forum.miuipro.info/viewtopic.php?t=4432&start=200 I didn't checked my self so is a downgrade (not interested).
As per flashing a firmware for other variant you can flash the global (also the EEA included), the Indonesian too, I don't recommend the China version BUT as far as I know the indian version came without NFC capabilities to hardware level and i found someone more that say the same https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-8-pro/how-to/guide-redmi-note-8-pro-megathread-t4056527
Hey guys,
Tempted to install the Xiaomi EU ROM as I've heard it is very good for battery and performance. I have a few questions with regards to updates however. Does xiaomi.eu support OTA updates after the first flash, does it support major software update flashes OTA without the need to wipe data, and does it work with custom recoveries? I have orangeFox downloaded right now but I can change to TWRP.
Thanks
EDIT: Just flashed Lineage, then Arrow, then dotOS, prefer Dot out of the 3, great ROM would reccomend.

Coming from F2 Pro EU ROM it wasn't OTA updates, you needed to manually download and flash via TWRP. That could be different with OrangeFox as we only had TWRP on F2. Even when flashing manually you didn't need to wipe even when going from A10 to A11 as long as you kept on Stable route or the weekly route (I went stable)
I'm tempted by this device since mi-globe ROM is since ca. a week also available. It is based on xiaomi.eu Builds but you can customize the build by removing a bunch of MIUI apps (BugReport, Browser, Weather, Email, LiveWallpaper, File-Explorer) and block the Xiaomi Sync Daemon. See mi-globe FAQ.
I would be interested on any reports and feedbacks of xiaomi.eu or mi-globe users on this device compared to the Stock ROM , I'm particularly interested in the Cam performance (Stock ANX and/or GCam builds).

Hey, I know its not Xiaomi EU but I found DotOS and ArrowOS to be miles better than MIUI, the camera performance isn't great with the pre-installed cam on both ROMs but with GCam PX it's actually very very good!

Thx, I also prefer clean fast CustomROMs over Stock in general, but thaught that at this stage gauguin has not yet such stable daily driver cROMs and until that I would go with xiaomi.eu/mi-globe - without at least those I would not buy a Xiaomi device.
For Custom ROMs I prefer those with Signature Spoofing Support and particularly like crDroid. If I order this device (depends if RN10 Pro does not become more interesting soon) I guess I have to try out by myself Nice to see the community growing here.
EDIT: Redmi Note 10 Pro Max is rumored to have Snapdragon 768G, Amoled, 108 Mpx - so definitely will wait if it gets that and will be availanle at a price point under Mi 10T Lite and will soon get Custom ROMs.

Has anybody tested Miracast (screen mirror) on Stock/xiaomi.eu or Custom ROMs? Seems to be present in LOS 14.1 but not in crDroid 6.x
Has anyone tried xiaomi.eu for poco f3? If yes, please share the installation steps and your experience with the rom.
Is you bootloader unlocked?
Only Fastboot method for now, check out the Xiaomi.EU forums: https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads...all-xiaomi-eu-rom-for-xiaomi-redmi-k40.60379/
As the original thread on the xiaomi.eu is for the K40, even if I understand it is the same as POCO F3 which is K40's international version, did people succesfully test the fastboot flashing of that ROM specifically on the POCO F3?

I agree. it's with MIUI itself. alot of peepz are not happy lol
If anyone is using xiaomi.eu on poco f3 right now, please tell me if the option "tap to display AOD for 10 seconds" is available in AOD settings or not. Im asking because it is available on the default global rom and I really like it this way.
What are the differences between roms so far? Can anybody list them?
Why everybody complain about gestures? I can use gestures on my poco f3 with nova luncher with no problems. Global stock firmware
Gestures - swiping on the home screen to open some app or other things right?
My uderstaning is Xiaomi.EU is based on the latest China rom. It's essentially the Redmi K40's rom 12.0.8.0 date 2021-04-09 with performance/battery tweaks, Chinese apps/bloat removed, ads removed, languages added and don't quote me on this (EU/Global vendor).
Then there's the official European (EEA) rom which just received update 12.0.4.0 date 2021-04-19 that fixes screen dimming, standby battery drain and haptic feedback motor noise.
And lastly there is the official Global rom which is still on 12.0.2.0 date 20201-03-30 which is meant for the rest the world including North America.
The China rom is developed by Xiaomi developers in China. It's has the most features, the latest features and is the most stable.
The Global and European (EEA) roms are developed by Poco and have the Poco lanucher and Google apps as default.
Eventually bug fixes one region receives will be transferred over and implements to other regional roms.
Downloading 12.0.4.0 fails for me. Was anybody able to do the update?
Can someone check if the xiaomi.eu has the sensors off feature in the developer settings?
I posted on the Xiaomi.EU forum asking about the current issues and bugs Poco F3 users are facing.
Hopefully someone, who has a Redmi K40/Poco F3 running the Xiaomi.EU stable firmware replies to my post.

I flashed weekly 2 days ago and haven't encountered any bugs, imo it feels better than global stable
I'm also thinking about to flash xiaomi.eu rom. Battery life is very poor for me on global stable... Also it is not running as smooth as i thought. Sometimes a bit laggy.
@ zeb_vv
Seems like no one wants to flash Xiaomi.EU stable for Poco F3 even on the Xiaomi.EU forum.
Weekly has more features and is on MIUI 12.5, but it's less stable and has more bugs.
Good to hear you've not encountered any problems.
Hi, I've seen most ROMs recommend firmware from MIUI 12.5.x and not the latest is there any reason for that ? Does the latest firmware could break something ? Or lead to weird bugs/new bugs ?
A11 miui based roms have hit their end of life for the most part (12.5.19) almost all the bugs have been worked out and is very stable. Imo, as well as many others, the A12 based miui roms are sometimes if not always missing import features such as face unlock (at the time of writing this). The A12 based roms, imo, are not the most stable roms for the poco f3 atm (I've tried both, and ended up sticking to 12.5.19 xiaomi EU stable)
