This is a request if someone can make a minimalistic rom, preferably for the SNapdragon version (both would be even better)
This rom preberaly runs on a custom kernel tweaked to have less logging and a minimalistic approach.
It should have only the minimal software needed for the hardware to function, the rest could be an optional flash package where one could choose what they need, this will not only help run the phone cool and smooth but also improve the spectacular battery life.
this rom if built on the global beta could have root built in , since bootloader would be unlocked to flash this rom.
Thoughts anyone ?
Nice idea! I also have the feeling MIUI is too bloated and that too many unnecessary services are active. I hope someone would consider this idea and if someone misses any functions, they should be able to flash a zip file or select the functions via an AROMA installer when you first install the rom.

Wish you luck, unlocking the bootloader officialy is indeed quite the hassle. Hope they fix the problems with mi flash unlock tool some day. I'll try to help you out when I can unlock the bootloader as well.
I also would like to see some slim version, especially one that doesn't consume too much ram.
The lightest edition I've found until now are the xiaomi.eu roms (around 620MB zip).

thanks for that , it seems the xiaomi.eu roms are based on the latest CHina beta with all the chinese stuff removed, waiting for my bootloader to be unlocked. this seems like the best bet to use on the phone.

Hmm, invalid link.
But anyway, I have a global stable based xiaomi.eu rom. And a theme app is a proof for that (no customize menu on global roms).

I didn't notice too big difference. It's faster, leaves more free ram and has more international languages. Bloatware removed.

Just received my phone and it has Miui 6 installed on it, Miui version 66.66.77.00(LHMCNCF) I queried it with my Chinese supplier his reply was ……
We flashed the phone to Miui 6. Because Miui 7 is not stable now. Pls don't update to Miui7.
He supplied this link to download the above rom in case I lost it off my phone: http://www.miui.com/download-290.html#430, but this link does not mention the above version.
Should I stick with his advice or is there a reasonably stable Miui 7 version out there.??
I am running the china dev rom miui 7. It performs far better than miui 6. Btw, my phone came with exactly the same rom as you. It is filled with bloatware and some functions dont work. I suggest you flash to the stable miui 6 or go for beta miui 7. Either way, you will be in a much better position that you are now.

Thanks for the reply, did not have much bloatware so guess the supplier took it off before he shipped the phone, tried the apex launcher with this rom and it has various problems so gone back to the rom launcher, i guess you mean one of the roms from this web page, http://en.miui.com/download-218.html.

Can you share with us what version of MIUI you have used? Does it work with OTA updates?
I like miui rom better than stock android roms. Because of that I found out that there are two miui based roms. Globe rom and Xiaomi.eu rom. Can you tell from your experience which one of them is less buggy and a better customizable ?
Eu miui is more customizable but tbh i didn't try it yet i use V9.6.25.0.OEJMIFD global stable its very smooth and give me great battery life more than a day with 10+ hours of sot and i don't face any bug what so ever i was before on miui 10 beta its was less smooth and less battery life
I'm using the EU beta version already and I have to say it works very well.
It also has more options than the global version.
Just try it yourself and be surprised.

I'm not talking about the global rom. There is a customizable rom based on miui rom which called globe rom.
I tried globe rom today (first time flashing for poco) you can set it up wit the globe website.
But not all functions are working, i switched off browser, included root/magisk/ad away but it diddn't work.
I renamed the rom zip to rom.zip (so not the orginal name)
Rest of rom function i'm testing atm
Could that be the problem

adaway (or other apps you chose) are stored in sdcard/globeROM_apps for you to manually install after flashing, they are not (i believe) installed automatically.
it says on the site that sometimes magisk doesn't work or doesn't even allow boot. if that's the case just manually flash/install it
are you also saying that the browser didn't get removed? not sure on that one, did you clean flash - wipe data, cache, dalvik, system? you could try re-building the rom or flashing again

No, I'm not sure! I've just read at the rom builder website people asking for gapps to be optional in the expert settings. So thought I'd ask. Hopefully I'll get the device through the post this week and will try it. I'll report back!
I reflashed without wipe data with orginal final name, it worked better. Apps got deleted and it update magisk from .1 to .2 version.
I only can't find center clock mod and adaway, it is stated in the install log as succesfull. First have to look into what i'm missing.

Hi all,
I would like to install a custom ROM on my Xiaomi Redmi 5 Plus,but before I do that I would like to get informed a little more bit about the custom ROMs!
Are (all) the custom ROMs as safe as the MIUI?
By safe I mean for safe paying/banking online,secured using of banking apps,safe using of FB,Viber,Instagram or simmilar apps,detecting vulnerable apps and deleting them by the ROM itself,keeping of the private informations safe(passwords etc.) as the stock MIUI ROMs.
My second question to all of you is,which custom ROMs are safer,the ROMs based on Oreo or Pie?
And finally, which is the best custom ROM according to most of you?
By best I mean firstly safe,then smooth and fast,and also with least number of bugs or not working features(or best without any bugs and with fully functional all of features!) and to drain the battery at least.
I would please you to help me and give your opinions!
Thank to all of you in advance!
Best regards!
I think if u unloock the bootloader... the phone is no longer secure... because others can enter into fastboot or recovery and extract the data... ???

Thank you for replying!
I mean,if the phone is still secure online?
I don't mean about physical securing of the phone, because only I have access to my phone!
And what could be done to increase the level of the physical securing of the phone after unlocking of the bootloader?

About the physical secure.. i got no idea.. i think u can only erase data via web.... dont know other way...

Which custom ROM is the best according to you, has least bugs and has almost all of the phone features working? For the Redmi 5 Plus of course!
Also has great battery,is fast and smooth?
Please stop asking this all around... If you have already unlocked, just try some custom ROMs... Its personal preference. All custom ROMs are more ornless identical on security.
But you will need some patience and try some.
AEX pie is pretty good and stable
LOS16 also very good and stable
PE Oreo is nice too
RR Oreo gave me some issues
Others I have not tried.
Make sure you flash the most recent firmware partition.
Honestly, if you care about online security just install AFWall+, DNS66 on any custom ROM. Physical security is gone when you unlocked. (Was it, ever, anyway does physical security exist?)
Sent from my Note 5 / 5 Plus using XDA Labs
Anyway ,I would like to hear more opinions about which custom ROM is best for the Redmi 5 Plus ,before I install one,so I would please all of you to share your opinions and experiencies ,because you really have much experience in this!
Thanks in advance and please apologize if I am making you bored with my questions!

you should try yourself to find "best custom rom". all people have their own prefences. so, just try all available roms for redmi 5 plus, you will find one.
If you are normal users you should stay on miui, it give you best experience.
Does anybody know if there is a possibility for MIUI to have camera2api enabled by default in near future?
Thread closed at OP request
For ages I have tried to avoid rooting my phone, mainly due to Google Pay. But with the constant issues and also now that I've just purchased bPay for my watch anyway, I no longer need Google Pay.
Even though my phone is not rooted, most apps thought it was.. so even the fixes only worked so far.. so screw it. haha.
I would like to root my phone and try and make my Xiaomi as close to vanilla Android as possible. What roms would people suggest?
Is the Xiaomi a wise phone to modify? Will I loose any features (camera etc)?
I have only really ever used OnePlus One devices, and other phones I have always relied on Google Pay access, so its been awhile since I rooted a phone and I have a feeling things may have changed a fair bit.. maybe even become more simple?
Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated.
My device; Mi 8 128GB, chinese import. Arrived with unlocked bootloader and global rom.. somehow.. even though global wasnt available at the time.. have since has xiaomi.eu rom, most recent on the device. But im finding its waaay to buggy and im very eager to get rid of this.
try pixel experience
stock experience like the pixel 3 xl
almost the same camera if not better
great battery life stable and way smoother than miui 10
I was In a similar predicament
I went for havoc and find its fantastic
Similar to pixel experience but with more added features
Has gcam implemented already

pixel experience rom has everything that a pixel phone has including the amazing gcam
Use syberia! aosp based like all but best battery so far
You can try pixel experience, I'm using it for a while now and never thought of changing to another rom. This will be my permanent rom I guess. Pixel3ROM is also nice, but it's just a port so the dev heavily refuses to add compatibility features like IR camera support for face unlock etc. So main features of the device won't work kn that one.
LineageOS is just another option, but it feels so empty compared to Pixel Experience. Yes, it can be customized but it'll never get the capabilities of Pixel Experience, due to official Rom policies of LOS.
And another thing, my device is rooted and I'm using PE, and Google Pay is working.

About camera, it hss a Google Camera port that I can't really remember the name of dev, and you can flash the miui camera port from Magisk if you need that either.
If you have any questions about this rom, I'd love to answer them, I can consider myself as an experienced user of it I guess. I used miui for 2 weeks thanks to bootloader unlock timer, and believe me, when you switch, you will feel like tons of weight just pulled out of your shoulders.
Thanks everyone this is all really helpful to know. Sounds like Pixel Experience is the one to try first.

This is really handy to know. I was thinking today that maybe rooting etc my phone myself properly would give me better control over getting that set up to work properly.
One more thing, just checking over the instructions and a little lost on some bits;
Flash Instructions
1. Download ROM zip.
2 . Advanced Wipe: System, Data, Cache and Dalvik/cache - Already have TWRP from installing Xiaomi.eu rom.
3. Flash latest MIUI or Xiaomi.eu beta. - This step confuses me.. if I already have a xiaomi.eu rom installed, I presume I would skip this?
4. Flash Pixel Experience.
5. Flash Dm-verity and reboot into TWRP (Only if you're coming from MIUI stock. Skip that if you're coming from another custom ROM) - Guessing again, I would skip this as I am already on TWRP? Unsure what dm-verity is..
6. Advanced Wipe: Data
7. Reboot & enjoy.
Some background on the current config phone wise. Imported a Mi 8 before it was released globally, nor even a date was released at that point. The phone arrived with global rom I believe.. the bootloader was already unlocked however and it was in English, so I am unsure how they had the global rom on it.. unless was the chinese one in English? Eitherway. I just followed the usual guide to flashing Xiaomi.eu on the phone. TWRP was already on it, but it is a chinese version, in english, but with chinese text on the loading screen.. unsure if normal?
Thanks again!

You can't skip the 3rd step since you're wiping the system partition, vendor and/or firmware files will be gone, which are not included with the rom.
At 5th, https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/universal-dm-verity-forceencrypt-t3817389 After flashing this, reboot to recovery in order to do advanced wipe. Just follow the steps, don't be lazy!
Not sure about your phone, but there are a high chance of being a Chinese variant of your phone, check the rear glass for CE certificate logo, if there are any chinese text, your phone is a chinese variant. In this situation, be careful to not lock your bootloader.

When I got the phone there was a sticker on the back which was in Chinese, all the packaging was too. The text printed on the phones actual case is in English however.
Update: All done and all was a success. Thanks everyone!
Tried Pixel Experience - battery drain was so extreme had to flash another rom..
So now trying Havoc.. way too many bugs, no sound on alarms, phone stops responding to touch.. ergh. Battery is good though.. haha.
Looking like there may not be any rom which isnt free of bugs or battery drain on the Mi 8..
Sadly Google Pay, with Magisk and hide, does not work on any rom. Altho I managed to get another banking app to work by using Magisk hide ironically.

I just replaced the default phone, contact and messaging apps with the Google ones with App systemizer and magisk, and replaced the stock cam with latest Gcam.

First, I am not responsible to what happens after you flash this. If your phone dose not work afterwords it is your own doing. I didn't force you to flash it..
This is a stock rom for the most part for the Snapdragon Note 20 Ultra U1 that I use as my daily driver. I disabled file encryption, removed knox, fixed screen cast and shealth plus Bluetooth and smartwatch pairing. Most of the Google apps are uninstallable. I'll try to keep this up to date every month the best I can. Enjoy.
You Must Have A Unlocked Bootloader and a SM-N986 U1 or U Ultra to proceed.This Might Wipe Your Data!! Make a Back up!!.
Instructions:
1: Flash with Odin in the respective slots (bl, ap, cp and csc).
2: Wipe and format data in recovery if coming from a different rom or android version.
3: Reboot and set it up.
Enjoy.
See this thread or this thread if you need a unlock. The teams there are great!

I don't think so but I'm really not sure, I haven't looked into it. The big deal for me is downloading more firmware, keeping track of more files, storage space and time. Honestly it's pretty simple to build your own. You can get all the info you need for that here .
@Misterxtc, what is your preferred method for root access?

I use magisk canary from here in the download links and flash it in twrp.
Very exciting to see more Dev's like you making things better. Thank you.

Thanks, I figured something like this would make it easier for those who like stock and are unlocked every month.

I was sitting here debating on whether to go with 10 or 11 lol. Durrr me...I'm all for a custom cleaned up ROM any day over the untouched stock firmware. I see that your ROM is on the latest 11 (CUA1). Nice!
Since your tweaking the universal U1 firmware and since there isn't any carrier bloatware in there, is there much to really remove to make it even more lean and lighter? I know in the old days those firmware's were loaded with bloat and by removing them helped it a lot.
I also noticed that the latest 11 file size was smaller than the latest 10. From what you can see is that from just making 11 more efficient, thus making it lighter?
Regarding the change log:
Disabled File Encryption - Is that for the entire device file encryption or the built in folder encryption that was disabled? What are the benefits from disabling this? Does it just make it smoother even if you don't use the encryption feature on the device?
Removed Knox - Does using a smart watch to use Samsung Pay etc... still a work around even with the device knox removed?
Are there any settings to be able to tweak camera settings to improve the camera? iirc back in the Note 3 and 4 days, a Dev said that there was a value in the image quality or something that was set to I think 8 instead of the max 10? He had maxed that out and included that in the ROM... I'm curious if such adjustments exist in the 11?
Does the CUA1 have the baked in Microsoft Swiftkey (VIRUS) or is that only on carrier firmware's?
I have the Unlocked varaint of the Note 20 Ultra straight from Samsung. Oddly, it came with firmware ATGO, which is ATT lol.. but I'm on TM. What has been annoying is that I can't uninstall the darn microsoft swiftkey.
I love Swiftkey as a keyboard (best touch accuracy IMO), but despise the intrusivemness, so I like to use my own tweaked swiftkey with the internet premissions removed w/ using AFWall+ to block everything else. ie...
The thing is that I haven't been able to install the tweaked swiftkey due to it not letting me since the stock MS one is baked in...
