I just ordered mine but I hate MIUI. I would need to reflash right away. What is the most reliable, closest to pure Android ROM?
Closest to pure android is definitely AndyYan's LineageOS. I am running it for a while now and battery life is still pretty good, no bugs so far. Only thing that doesn't work in all custom roms is VoLTE.
I love Epic ROM with AOSP notifications.
The global Oreo beta is great despite being MIUI. And I'm a pure Android kind of guy.
Oreo beta is by far the best.

Yeah miui 9.2 or something. It's just the most stable everything works and has stock aosp type notifications. I've tried all custom ROMs and stock miui has everything working. In the future that may change.
Oreo with nova launcher

when updating to miui 9 from miui 8, do i lose everything?
So, crap. I solely bought this phone to have AOSP on it, but it seems I will be back to crappy MIUI.

The mi mix forum is a mess, all the 8.1 roms are in comments of the LOS15 thread in the guides, news, discussion section. None are officially released yet by the dev

MIUI 9 beta with a custom launcher is pretty close to the experience of most custom ROMs. Just install ADW or Nova and it should be fine.

I need AOSP notifications instead of ridiculous miui ones. I need to be able to restore my apps from Google cloud or titanium backup. None of this and more does not work in miui. Resemblance to Apple makes me sick.

Hello! What is your experience using MIUI 10 Beta ? How stable is it and are there any critical bugs in it? How do things go with energy consumption? How quickly do bugs fix there?
I want to know that did Xiaomi stopped beta program for miui 10? Or it's just they didn't provide weekly build today?
Because i'm on miui 10 beta and didn't recieve any uodate today. So i thought maybe since they have launched public stable buil so they have stopped beta program. Is it true?

It is because their devs are on holidays. They do this annually, they made a post about this and the next beta build comes at 11/10.
MIUI Beta and Stable are largely the same for now. Both are good in battery life and performance but I found MIUI 10 a bit stuttering with animations and scrolling compared to MIUI 9.6.4. Also weirdly the graphics options in PUBG has been reduced with MIUI 10. Don't know why.. Switched to MSM-X Pie Rom for now.

How? What about Anti Roll back? I was in Resurrection remix before Miui 10 but after miui 10 i have to stick with it because of ARB policy. Also miui 10 public build has no finger print lock option. But i'm on beta build so everything seems to be working fine here for now.

Arb doesn't apply to custom ROMs. You can switch between custom ROMS as usual. Just don't go back to a older version of MIUI. Fingerprint works in stable build for me.

Oh. Thanks. Then i'll definitely try Android Pie based Custom ROMS. But Camera quality becomes worse in Custom ROMS.
What's the point of having a good camera hardware if it's in no use in custom ROMS.

Wrong.
Most of the custom roms for whyred come with mi A2 camera pre installed,the you can add gcam onto that.there is no difference between miui and custom camera.because its not the operatint system that defines quality of the picture taken with camera,its the application you are using.
If its a better application or same,there wont be any difference.

Actually in my oneplus one and oneplus 5 custom roms doesn't give same camera quality as stock roms. That's why i'm afraid to flash custom rom on redmi note 5 pro. :/
IIRC the official update should've launched around november-december
Its february, what happened? did xiaomi drop the RN5pro from the list?

LOL! Where did you get information RN5 will get Android 10? RN5 Pro got 2 major Android updates 8.1 and 9. Be happy they even continue MIUI. Last MIUI update was in November and after that still nothing. This is not a flagship phone. If you want Android 10 go with custom ROMs.

They were launched with Nougat
Dude has right.There were serious rumors that we would get android 10.
What is the point of android 10 if it is still covered by MIUI skin? I hardly can point out any additional feature provided by android 10. There are several nice to have features, but it also brings along several critical limitation.
I flashed Havoc 3.0 android 10 early January this year, just for the sake of update, after one week immediately regret it. I am back to AEX 6.7 Pie 9.0 since then. The clipboard limitation severely damage several of my daily flows in Automagic. Any wifi/bluetooth related action now require high accuracy location feature to be on all the time. While at pie 9.0, battery saver mode is enough. There is pratically no significant new useful features I can find.
At that time most android 10 cusrom still haven't stable yet nor implementing their features into the ROM. Example, I can't yet find Smartbar DUI in AEX 7.0 Android 10, but it is there in AEX 6.7 Pie 9.0 (that's why I stay on Pie). Rather than having new version but with missing features, I better stay on old version but with full features.
Maybe battery backup is better on Q?

Also, some come with MIUI 9 and others with MIUI 10. You received an updated batch.
If you search "Redmi Note 5 Nougat" you will see that this device was launched with Nougat.

Installing that Nougat on my whyred is going to break my camera, which means that 7.1 wasn"t meant for my device. Indian whyred was launched with 7.1 . Not global one

That's true, I agree
But I still think xiaomi won't update it to Android 10
asking if someone would know, if its possible for developers to create a custom miui 12 rom with Android 10 for our devices as we all know our phone is not updatable to android 10 without the help of custom roms, hoping that this could happen would love to live for that
If not official, it will be very buggy. Also, you don't need Android 10 having MIUI on top.
Android 9 miui 12 beta is there

I dont know, but i installed miui 12 now and some features is not available for android 9 like the floating window, so im asking if its possible to put on top of 10 i dont know if its gonna be implemented on future updates, nevertheless miui 12 is awesome not quite buggy.

The stuff, we saw on promo or rewiews, they're from flagship models, so we won't get any of them, at least not yet, but we will get android 10 in near future. I don't think we can manage to get miui 12 with android 10 before the official rollout.

Whyred beta updates will be dropped soon !
The end of support for RN5 is in this June (next month). It's not gonna have anymore beta and updates (also no more xiaomi.eu builds). This MIUI 12 is gonna be the last update and it's probably gonna come late 2020 or early 2021. MIUI is garbage anyway just move to custom ROMs. We probably gonna have custom Android 11 ROM before MIUI 12 release for our phone.

Those are features of MIUI 12 not from Android 10. I'm using latest mi-globe ROM and despite it doesn't have floating windows, they are supported. When I receive a WhatsApp message, it will open a floating window (aka quick reply) of the app.

what i thought because of the floating window is like the split screen, i saw in some yt vids that it can be accessed in the recents, and instead of split screen its called floating window, I guess I'll try whatsapp if thats the case, but yeah, im planning to go back to custom rom, and just wait for the stable global release
There is any intention from a developer to made a custom rom for our device with android 11 ??
There are patches for the device tree for LOS 18, so I think so.
Probably there will be a release once they finish it.
Now, there r 3 roms with android 11 and r full functional.

what do you mean? Android 11 ROMs for Mi Mix 2? If so, could you share the links or something?
Some days ago an user send me a link for lineage18 for our device "Mi mix2" and I would like to share the link. I tried it and is fully working and at the moment I don't found bugs. Just the battery drain is high but if you don't mind about is a nice way to enjoy android 11.
