Question Best MIUI MOD do you prefer and why? - Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40

Im EvoX user but since no update and some bugs i've tried MIUI 13 Elite CN Free version but lack of customization but good performance and battery life,
Im a fans of aosp but MIUI still give more potential than aosp in my opinion. My complain on MIUI 13 is the app you close is closed and will have no notification unless you give permission to run on background and sometimes the app is auto closed (like adguard & google photo didnt backup) and i should open it again.
Im planning to try another MIUI custom rom like MIUI MOD by OG, VNa.
Please share your experience using MIUI Custom Rom or do you have recommendation? Thanks

For gaming, Try MIUI Mod OG. Performance is at par and you will get default 90 fps in PUBG even the device at Bootcamp manages to give 75+ fps in fights.
Only con is there's no throttling limit in Rom so device might get hear much and will affect battery life for future usage.
But to gain something, you have to lost something which applies here.
You can try MIUI Casnova Rom too, it is like MIUI mod OG and performance is more better in that rom in gaming but it's development has been stopped now.
For daily use, try MIUI VNa for stable performance or MIUI VN for daily stable use with few extra modifications available but VNa is more stable.
In AOSP, try Pixel rom once

There's some issue like you mentioned of delayed notifications in MIUI mod OG but VN is fine in that case.

I'm trying Greeshan feels fast and stable. Have 3 days with it. Google the name and there's a webpage: iT-DroiD-ZoNe by greeshan

does installing CM 11 degrades camera performance

i'm currently using the stock jelly bean 4.3 build and i'm not satisfied with it due to poor battery .i need a custom ROM that drastically improves the battery providing a full day of usage with 3g mobile data always on . i hear that installing custom ROM will degrade camera performance since the image processing algorithms get lost ,it it true ? is there any custom ROM that provides best battery life ,good call quality ,decent loud speaker(atleast similar to the stock one) and the same camera performance offered by the stock ROM
That would be great if custom rom had all you need,
But reality is that it doesn't at the moment
Yes camera quality on custom ROM is not as good as stock MIUI, also same with speakers
But you can improve battery life, heating issues, etc with proper selection of custom ROM and KERNEL
STOCK MIUI:-
1)Better Camera
2)LOUD speaker o/p
CUSTOM ROMS+KERNEL:-
1)Better battery
2)Better RAM manegment+Multitasking
3)Less heating
4)Updated Android Experience
BANG that THANKS button
at the end i ended up with the stock ROM jelly bean 4.3 since camera is very important for me . to prevent the overheating and battery issues i rooted the phone and underclocked the cpu to 1.2ghz with minimum frequency as 384mhz. may be this will help the phone to get the best of both worlds
Anyways there is a win
BTW the camera on custom ROM is not trash,its good.Stock camera has some edge over it that's it.
Anyways u should give a try to custom ROM sometime later(For me lollipop is much better than Jellybean) give a try,you can always revert back to stock if not satisfied.Your wish,use the one which gives more satisfaction
BANG that THANKS button
is the cm11 4.4.4 ROM in stable state ? i mean the most less bugs because this phone is my daily driver and i dont need it to fail on any occasions
Yes its stable I used it few months ago,CM12.1 that I'm currently using is also stable
BANG that THANKS button
the word i mean stable is no bugs . i know that still lollipop is under development . my xperia l is getting official cm 12 and there are bugs with it . that's why i'm asking whether the cm11 is super stable with no bugs

Unofficial cm11 r26 is the last update for kitkat from the armani group and is considered to be quite stable. I think battery life should be at least ok if not good. CM12.1 r4 has poor battery life at the moment. Miui v50 is supposed to give reasonably good battery life so try it if you haven't yet.
You can install the miui camera on cm11 or 12.1 but you don't have the option to save to sdcard or the HDR options but it works. I don't think the processing algorithms are any different since its the same program.
Yes, Camera in CM11 and CM12 is not as good as Stock. Especially video recording blinks when trying to focus which is a dealbreaker for some.
Well,If we consider that stock camera is 10/10 , CM11 would be 8/10.The same goes for speakers.I don't understand why the music,from youtube or music player is not that loud,and when the phone rings,it's like he ate a powerfull speaker
I used cm11 for a long long time and now I kinda regret that I updated to miui v6.The good thing about cm11 is that you decide what to keep,what to delete,battery is good,ram management is great,phone doesn't heat like crazy.
In the end , we don't have a custom rom or a stock rom which has it all.I remember I was very happy on miui v5 with some thermal config and root acces.thinking to revert back to that,I remember i switched because i got bored.

I did a few test camera shots and found that the CM11 camera performs quite similarly to the miui camera. I was hard pressed to tell the difference btwn both apps except through from pixel peeping. Is there a scenario like HDR where the miui camera performs significantly better (8 vs 10) as you say?
Miui v5 has that 1gb zram thing which puts some lag, fast overheating due to 1.6Ghz max clock and has that sms bug which I didn't like. I could reduce the clockspeed after rooting but I still the 2 other issues and miui is too bloated for 1Gb ram.

First things first,the HDR doesn't even work in CM11.
Then,the ram management is decent,all you have to do is to strip down the rom a little(remove all bloatware,the security thing,don't use sync and don't let all your apps notify you,use notifications just for what you need.Greenify is also a good option after you did all those things.In MIUI V6,when you use the phone a little,like browsing for couple of minutes,or use camera,or facebook and so on,when you click on home button,an message appears " Just a sec " and after 2-3 seconds the launcher appears.Also,multitasking is bad in MIUI v6.I mean you open facebook for example,you click on a link and gets you in browser and then when you come back to facebook it doesn't starts from where you left it,it loads again.In miui v5 at least I could open 3-4 apps and use multitasking properly.
About sms bug,I have no clue what you're saying.
The heating isn't an issue,of course if it's not underclocking the cpu too much and the phone lags.Just flash a better thermal config from xda and there'll be no issues.
In conclusion,this phone will always lack something.It's cheap and that says it all.However,the building quality is great,I've dropped it couple of times,few times even without case and I couldn't see a scratch.The camera is amazing,including the video one.The performance,well,it comes at a cost.Either you reduce performance and keep the cpu cold,or you choose to play great games,but the phone will heat up.Honestly,I used an samsung galaxy s5,not mine,but played with it a little,and it heats up pretty bad too.So...enjoy your redmi 1s.
^pretty much sums it.
Could you please guide me towards a thermal config for stock ? Will i need to flash a kernel or a governor?
Thanks

If the only difference btwn the miui vs cynogen/google camera quality (8 vs 10) is HDR, then custom rom users aren't doing so bad.
The SMS bug affects numbers where the country code ends in a "0" and some sms's cannot be replied from the messaging app depending on how a phone number is stored in the contacts list (whether it contains the country code or not). Its a big problem and the bug report is still open. According to Xiaomi theres no easy fix.
Having the max cpu clock set to 1.6Ghz means the phone heats up far more quickly. And manufacturers whose phones use the same cpu only clock it to 1.4Ghz. Thats why CM's default speed is set to 1.4Ghz as well.
Enjoy your redmi 1s too.

What Is The Best Rom For Performance

Can someone please tell me what rom is the best for performance..
I dont care about battery..i just want to make this device faster without lag..
Can you all suggest me what rom ,apps, mod, or trick to make this device run smoother without lag..
Just use the stock rom for the least amount of headche. This is a low end phone by todays standards and I only use it as a backup phone for testing. It overheats easily and the cpu will throttle. Some (many?) custom roms don't do a good job of thermal management and the phone will reboot or bootloop.
Top roms (all nougat builds), I personally use DOTS and I've been using it for months.
- AICP
- COLT OS
- DOTS ROM

Stock MIUI is very bad for battery life and sometimes lags as well.
What I normally do is freeze some of the problem built in apps manually using the paid version if Titanium backup to improve things.

I feel apps like greenify, lspeed, ssdboost won't really solve the issues properly with stock MIUI battery drain and create more spyware risks. All of those apps can access the internet and if you use 2FA apps or banking apps, those apps can read keystrokes and seed data (since the hardware backed encryption/keystore is not working properly for redmi1s) and send it off through the internet.

But now Currently downloading 3 other rom, LinageOS14, ColtOS and DotOS..im gonna try using each of them..
ColtOS, Resurrection Remix, Mokee are based on Cynogenmod/Lineage so they are going to be similar and may all have the same bugs of LO.

I haven't used MIUI in a long time until recently but I found MIUI 8 to be acceptable after some tweaking. I uninstalled some spyware/bloatware - analytics, msa, mi* and the battery life was reasonably ok. MIUI 9 came out after I switched to LO.
Generally MIUI is going to be the most stable with the best performance for normal use but the battery life is poor before some tweaking. The cpu is slow and overheats easily in any case so there is only so much any rom can do.
i use AICP,n no problem until now..
HIi,
Read my post on DOT OS regarding ROM performance.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/re...cial-dotos-t3707240/post76388652#post76388652
I feel better now with lineageos microG + magisk v16. battery look better cause no google play service that full running in the background , and I can get some tweaks that I like in magisk moduls
"MIUI7" was the last time I used stock rom, and I don't want to back even MIUI9 (based kitkat)
still using XenonHD rom one week, and stable enough for daily use
Resurection remix and DOT OS are the best roms for redmi 1s

Need ROM suggestions

I play a lot of PUBG mobile. So please suggest me some ROMs that have good performance and battery life and don't have issues with touch or audio via the jack. Camera and customisation features don't have high priority
just wanted to know the same.. I was on 9.2.13 for a couple of weeks and upgraded to masik 2.2 miui 10 based... Let me tell u that miui 9.2.13 was like a god of battery backup and pubg ....and now this masik has **** backup but its smooth
I would recommend Bootleggers ROM - a personal favorite. I haven't tried all the ROMs but this ROm has just enough customizations and smoothness to make it the best for me.
I love Pixel Experience. Almost stable, no need to install gapps and mi a1 camera preinstalled ?

So far, ive been tried a bunch of custom rom on whyred like RR, AOSIP, AEX, PIXEL with custom or stock kernel, and all of them consume more battery than MIUI when playing PUBG
If you want long lasting battery when play PUBG without pluging charger to the phone when play, just stick with MIUI, it can hold up to 6hr playing PUBG compared to 5hr when using custom ROM. Ive tested this using 100% mobile data, not wifi. Maybe more SOT given up to 1hr when using WiFi
I think MIUI kernel is the point why the battery is so good on it but lack of good performance when gaming compared to custom. Maybe thats the reason.
Till now, i still testing on different custom rom and kernel to find some setting that close to MIUI battery backup.
So i suggest just stick with MIUI if you want more long lasting battery when play PUBG.
If you dont want audio or touch issues, use MIUI 9.5.17 instead the other. No ARB, loud audio when play PUBG, good battery backup too.
Hope you understand what im saying, i dont speak english very well.

Mi A1 camera is ready to use and fully functional. I have not made a comparison but surely gcam is better for other reasons and no, you need to install magisk yourself.

Question Is stock MIUI good or is it better to install a custom ROM?

Hi all, I'm coming from a Pixel phone. This is my first Xiaomi phone with MIUI on it. I just got the phone today and I've been playing around with it. So far the MIUI experience is not too bad. It's not too heavy handed and feels relatively stock. And it comes with some useful apps like a decent clock, weather app, voice recorder etc. so it seems alright and I don't mind it much.
What's your opinion of it? Do you like stock MIUI or do you prefer an AOSP based ROM? And also I like to take a lot of pictures with my phone. So is the camera better on the stock MIUI software or is the camera just as good or even better on an AOSP ROM?
In my opinion, if you like MIUI, you should go with a custom MIUI based ROM like xiaomi.eu or else. But you can still try others ROMs that you may like.
The other custom ROMs don't have stock camera (for the moment), but Gcam is available in many versions, many users thinks it is better than stock camera app, if you are coming from a pixel you might be more familiar with that (and other pixel like ROMs).
Always here if you need more information !
This is just my opinion but I'd rather stick pins in my arms than use Miui. There are so many ROMS for this device and they are all pretty stable and with Gcam they are amazing. In my personal opinion GCam is better than the stock cam and takes better photos especially when you want to zoom in.
My personal favorite ROMS based on stability and features are ArrowOS, crDroid and Syberia. I'm just not a fan of Miui and their annoying prompts when you try to do anything like change permissions for an app and their plethora of bugs. It reminds me of EMUI but worse.
You have a week until you can unlock your bootloader, so try MIUI for a week and decide for yourself. I would recommend to debloat Miui first. I am counting final hours, before which I can unlock..
Can't stand MIUI for more than a week

So true those 10 seconds of waiting for many changes become incredibly annoying vrey fast.
Arrow OS is really fast booting and incredibly smooth interface, to bad in the customisation department is a little lacking
What's the best rom for gaming in your opinion? I have the stable xiaomi.eu 12.6 but i don't know if there are others better than this one. Thanks in advance!

the same here for me....in eu miui fast and stable for games...any good ather rom ?
My advice - use MIUI EU stable ROM first and see if it suits you - if not, then explore AOSP ROMS
AOSP always, but it's nice to try MIUI first! It's improving. Specially when in some month it will be updated to MIUI 13, and our F3 will be one of the firsts MIUI's devices to do it. So I would do what people said, but I'm completing it:
- Ask (yes, you have to ask first) to unlock your bootloader. You'll have to wait for a week before unlocking it.
- Try MIUI relaxed for a week. Take some screenshots about battery... and try to feel how smooth and performant can be
- (7 days later asking unlocking bootloader) Unlock bootloader. It will erase everything. Take advantage of it to change to some AOSP Rom, like AICP, ProtonAOSP, ArrowOS (never tryied), or whatever. You have dozens.
- Compare and decide some days later. You can always come to stock. And in the while, in some months you will have MIUI 13, so yeap
Depends on your taste! If you like MIUI over Vanilla Android, you can flash Xiaomi.eu Custom ROM for the best MIUI experience.
I dislike MIUI, but I use Xiaomi.eu Custom ROM, because the Vanilla Android ROMs I've tried don't have Dolby Atmos (or a good version implemented) and lackluster Camera-App.

Yup, also Beta! Also, when trying out AOSP ROMs I noticed the vibration felt really cheap, and I think Xiaomi has done vibration motor calibration on MIUI, to make the vibration motor feel as good as it does. If you set a Custom Vibration Time in Gboard (MIUI & AOSP), it also feels weird and cheap.

Yup, but i think the Overscroll effect only happens in the Settings unfortunately. I tried Moto Dolby and didn't like it at all, it didn't sound anywhere near Xiaomi's Dolby Atmos?
My experience so far is:
* Yes, MIUI is very nice and the new UI (e.g. control center) is very nice as well
* MIUI has a lot of bloatware but you can remove them all
* Battery life is fine as well (getting 6h ~ 6h30 of SoT without gaming)
* The Xiaomi.EU ROM is as good as the stock one but with less bloatware and some nice additional features, still 100% compatible (so both camera and Dolby Atmos speakers quality are preserved)
ArrowOS is very nice and smooth but not really much faster to stock anyway. Camera quality is worse, speakers quality is way worse due to the lack of Dolby Atmos support. There are a few bugs here and there and globally you aren't getting the stability guarantees of the stock ROM as with all custom ROMs.
So, finally:
* If you want maximum stability to avoid all problems, or if you are fine with MIUI's UI, stick with the stock ROM
* If you want good stability and 100% compatibility, go for the Xiaomi.EU ROM
* If you want stock-like experience, ArrowOS or crDroid are both very good (although I've had problems with crDroid, but it's my personal experience)

Yup, but i think the Overscroll effect only happens in the Settings unfortunately. I tried Moto Dolby and didn't like it at all, it didn't sound anywhere near Xiaomi's Dolby Atmos?

moto dolby is downright bad ive tried all aosp that have it, tbh theres no effect its just sound and hurting sound no effects whatsoever.
miui dolby is really nice and i love it it gives a sourround feel
if only it could be ported to aosp

I love it if it would get ported into an AOSP ROM!
Also small tip with Dolby Atmos: You can enable Video Toolbox in your favourite Music app (Spotify, YouTube Music, whatever) and customise the sound of the Dolby Atmos Video-Preset. This way you can adjust the surround sound of your music. ^^

Need a custom ROM -- help me

I hate the stock rom of A2 Lite. Too slow and the background apps keep reloading. I need a custom rom, I already asked on other threads and no one seems to care. I'm a noob, never flashed so I don't have experience and the support is terrible around here. Please tell me which custom rom works fast and stable as of now. I need Gapps and Instagram to work, banking app, google maps. Also no bugs with incoming calls, audio or fingerprint sensor please. I don't care if it's A11 or A12, it just needs to have fast performance, battery life and background optimization. And most of all Instagram, since all the mods seem unable to run it decently. I ask for your help, thanks in advance.
Try Derpfest 12. Daily driving it currently, and still pretty good. Reminds you tho that this 5-year-old phone is already kinda slow in general because of the old hardware, so it aint gonna fix it like magic.

Thank you, I'll give it a try. How does it work with ram management?

Not great, not terrible. I tried a lot of ROMs (especially Android 11 and 12) and safe to say I can't tell the difference between them. So-so, if you ask me.

So you mean it only changes the aesthetics? If that's the case I'd rather stay on stock rom at this point..

I've long gone with stock ROM so I can't compare it. I've heard that Android 12 have more optimization compared to 11 though.
But again back to my point: even though it might fix some of your ROM bugs and hiccups - it's still not magic. Mi A2 Lite is a 5-years-old budget phone. I still got some slowdowns and crashes, no matter what ROM I use.
I mainly change my ROM because I need some features that only available in Android 11 (or 12).
If you need stability you can go back to the original android 8 rom where this phone was fantastic
For my part i need the settings of dnd that where implemented on android 10
