Hello,
So I bought the Pocophone F1 and it's in his way to my house. Probably I will not keep the MIU software and use a rom like I did with my others smartphones. I was looking for a subject where they could detail about the roms and their battery life, because some roms are new to me, but didn't found anything.
Do you know a good rom with battery life improvement? Not sure about lineage, beacause there's too much features that I will not use.
Miui 10 8.11.2 based on android pie.. best battery life.. unlocked your bootloader .then flash Sphinx Kernel by Milouk.. .even the asus rog phone beat the performance..

Have you been trying others rom with the pocophone?
The Sphinx Kernel looks pretty good.
I am flashaholic and i love lineage OS but so far i have not installed any rom for now..im satisfied with the stock rom ( Miui ) maybe in the near future . .. for now i am enjoying Miui. ..Sphinx kernel makes the pocophone beast.. milouk has a good reputation his known for being smart , intelligent and a humble developer back in the days with Nexus device.And lots of users are happy to see him working with our devices so Cheers!!!!
LiquidRemix (9.0) rom have very good battery life. Before I was on Miui 9 latest. LiquidRemix rom has better battery life and performance for me. I saw Havoc rom recent one but I have not try it yet.
I had flashed the los, I felt it had not customisations at all..lol..
I tried nitrogen os..
But now I m using latest global beta..
Currently the miui provides the best battery backup and best performance.. just flash the sphinx kernel..
Battery backup is very good on all roms but best on miui

Well you convinced me! Maybe for roms is too soon, because most of them have something that is not working yet. I always thought that the MIUI was not taking the full advantage of the battery and management was not that good.
When you bought the phone, did he came with the clean stock miui? Or you had to flash it?
Your thought was wrong..Battey management and performance are fluid ...You can install MiuP https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sid.miuilatestupdates&hl=en there's a hidden settings , Go to Power mode and select Performance. .you cant' find these settings to your stock settings , it will activate battery performance. I am using my device for two days moderate usage of gaming , Pubg and Vainglory...i suggest turn off the notification setting with this app because it's very annoying popping up news every 30 mins..Good Luck!!!
Thank You very much bamz1117 for your advice. Once I'll get the phone I will flash the kernel and install the to access to hidden settings.
Your Welcome...Hit thanks if you like @DarkyX_90
All roms have excellent battery backup and ram usage but if you want just a close to stock android rom with minimal features, your best bet would be the Lineage OS. Install a GApps Pico build and you're good to go.
Most of the time I'm on lineage but currently I'm trying out the havoc os and loving its rich customization features
I would, but there's no thanks button
NOS is great for me. Full on stability and it's smooth. I was using MIUI PIE 8.11.8 and thought it's awesome until I flashed NOS rom. Everything is awesome now. Modded gcam does the job well too.
My suggestion would be to try MIUI PIE first and when you're bored with it, try NOS. You won't go back to MIUI ever.
that's fine it's a Q and A poll so you cant find a thanks button.... see this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/poco-f1/how-to/miui-10-stable-global-version-rolled-t3858866
Hey I got today the phone I was already to make everything, and the first thing I wanted to do was to update the miui. I have some questions because I am new with MIUI. On updates I have "10.0.4.0". I presume the " 8.11.2" is from the "developer rom", right?
1 - If yes, can it be dowloaded through the miui update on my smartphone? Or it's like a normal rom with TWRP?
2 - I went to http://en.miui.com/ and I just can found the " 8.10.25" version. Where did you get the 8.11.2?
3 - Any way to know which features may not work with the developer rom?
4 - The "8.11.2" has most languages available, or just because it's an advance version, it's just in english?
@DarkyX_90 Good to know you already have your phone ..this a Q and Q poll ..can you go to this thread so that i can help you out regarding your questions..https://forum.xda-developers.com/poco-f1/how-to/miui-10-stable-global-version-rolled-t3858866
Oh yes you right, I am sorry. Let's keep this topic as it is.
If anyone have thoughts about the battery and roms share with us.

Hi
Whats up?
Bought the Redmi Note 3 Pro Qualcomm Snapdragon 650 Hexa Core 3GB/32GB version.
After read a lot and especially the ROMs suitable for Redmi 3 Pro thread
I read that the MIUI's rom is onerous the phone with so much bloatware apps(cleanmaster, antivrus, Micloud and so more).
So, what is the most stable rooted rom w/o bugs at the area? (Read that the CM13 still have some annoying bugs)
I'm totally noob at the beginning after buying a new device
Saw the MIUI 8 V6.7.7 -BUT- still prefer more "puerer" rom and ofcoarse - with the least Lags as possible.
Prefer a rom that comes rooted comes with twrp + gapps installed that keeps the great battery life of the RN3 PRO.
Looking for: Clean+fast-NO LAG+comes with recovery(twrp preferred) and Play store.
What would be the most suitable for my needs?
Is there a "tut's" for how to?
Thanks very much for your help
I think twrp and gapps need to be installed seperately for every rom.
For twrp there are several guides but first step is always "unlock your bootloader". You have to either use unofficial unlock method or request permission from xiaomi.
The CM roms i tested were stable but for me there was the bug that the battery is stuck at 50%. Another bug that a lot of users face is a not working fingerprint sensor.
you can check here for a overview and possible fixes http://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-3/how-to/fingerprint-battery-issues-custom-roms-t3429464
I am on Krexus. I suggest you the same. No major bugs.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/red...rom-krexus2013266093caf-6-0-1-mmb29m-t3402304
Hi,
What about MIUI? Maybe the most stable-without bloatware out there?
I want something that close to clean android but still have some few hacks.
Thanks!!!
Miui 7 xiaomi.eu stable 7.3.2. Xiaomi.eu dev 6.5.5 is stable enough too, less stable and good rom is best MIUI 8 rom xiaomi.eu dev 6.7.21, that version od miui 8 is best actually. Of course you should unlock bootloader firstly.
Smiui is great for me awesome battery !!!
@ Pawel978
I'm not sure I understood you.
The best roms for you opinion are:
1) Miui 7 xiaomi.eu stable 7.3.2
2) Xiaomi.eu dev 6.5.5
What do you meant to say in this sentence?
"less stable and good rom is best MIUI 8 rom xiaomi.eu dev 6.7.21"
It not stable but still the best MIUI Rom?
I suggest reading through this reddit wiki first. As for which rom is the most stable and bug free, I'd say Mokee.
Thanks very much!!
Cm13 from santosh is the most stable but not the lightest
Krexus is the lightest/fastest but not the best battery
RR is polyvalent with lots of (useless for me) features, quite stable
Slim is pretty good compromise between speed/stability
I think slim is very small but meaningful customazings and very good from the battery power I have 8.5 hours sot or infinitive os is almost as but both are pretty good
@aaz03 and @noobstyle1337
Thanks for summerized for me the most recommanded roms for my needs.
Guess I will chose between:
Cm13
Slim
All best!!
Finally managed to officially unlock bootloader, but since I started that process over 2 weeks ago, a lot has happened in the Rom and development forum. I was originally going for CM13, but I'm not longer sure if that's a good idea.
I mostly use my phone as a music player, and it runs most of the day while I'm at work. I occasionally send calls and text messages.
I got the RMN3 for the battery and significantly larger screen than what I had before. Phone plans in canada are god awful and as such I got literally no data on my plan, so outside of home wifi, I got no internet on it.
The reason I want a custom rom is mainly to remove bloat and improve battery life, and maybe add a few functions/ behaviours.
I don't really care about the fingerprint sensor, should it not work, but having the camera non-functional is a no-go.
I'm not really interested in constantly having to flash an update on my phone. I just want one good, stable rom with little to no bloat that will do what I'll ask it to, with a good battery life, without crashing. Updating once every month or so would be reasonable. I heard that Android 7(+) had some battery life improvements (Doze?) so I'm conflicted as to rom and android versions.
I'm pretty new to Android, and I'm completely overwhelmed by the many different types of roms, along with the many different versions of the same rom (Example: many CM14/14.1 builds).
There's a lot of guides, but most of them seem out of date.
Device: Global Dev, Kenzo
Any suggestions? (If possible, please also include which version of TWRP you would recommend)
I personnally own the Kate version and flashed the official CM13 ROM built for Kenzo on it.
Everything is working fine for me, including the fingerprint sensor and the camera.
I also use the phone to listen to music all day at work and it worked really well with good battery life.
About the TWRP version I used, honestly I don't remember very well since I tried a few and the reason was something to do with the Kate device I believe, so you may not have to use the same version of TWRP.

My recommendations for you :
Recovery - Alka TWRP
Rom - Resurrection Remix 5.7.4 (rock stable, no bugs) https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=385035244224385843
Kernel - Radon 2.6.5
I Was A Motorola Moto G 3rd Generation User & From The Day I Got The Motorola Moto G 3rd Generation I Was Using The ( Nexus Experience ) ROM & It's The Most Perfectly Stable ROM You Will Ever Use On Any Device & I Got The Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Pro Yesterday & I Am Waiting For The Permission Of Unlocking Then I Will Try The Custom ROM's For This Phone If You Want The Best Stable ROM's For Any Phone
It Goes Like This
1st Stable ROM : Stock ROM
2nd Stable ROM : CyanogenMod
3rd Stable ROM : Nexus Experience
And It's Only My Opinion But I Tried All Of The Custom ROM's For The Motorola Moto G 3rd Generation & I Didn't Found A Better ROM Than
( CyanogenMod , Nexus Experience ) , It's Just My Opinion
& Here Is The Link For The Nexus Experience ROM ( http://nxrom.us/redminote3pro.html )
nx rom...combined with any custom kernel here. you won't disapointed with those rom. stable, fast & light.
Hi all,how about gaming?which rom recommend?

any stable rom with interactive gov
Hi, you mentioned stock ROM (not Cyanogen or Nexus experience, just stock). Where could I get that from?
I'm on beanstalk ROM (android 7.1) loving it!
Try krexus-CAF!
You could go for the official build of RR with Radon kernel
welcome to the race, mate
well if you want to improve battery life you are recomended to flash AOSP-Based roms . miui and cm-based roms have battery drain issue (i can't explain why, but i can say that because i tried them)
my recomendation would be Cardinal AOSP
try rr remix 5.7.4 with radon kernel...
I found the same answers in old thread (2016) (too much outdated considering that Oreo is out too for RN3pro).
I would like to ask the question for KATE (and i think that will be the same of kenzo RN3pro).
I'm waiting for the last stable miui9 , but i'm thinking to unlock the device (kate .. with all the problems related to the official unlock i didn't get it). In few days i will try miui 9 and i will apply again with a new account for try the official unlock, otherwise i will go on unofficial.
In the past week I did a survey in the miui official forum and the 43.63% (226 votes) of user will leave miui for custom rom in the near future , mainly because the new miui9 will be based on MM. I think that the number will be bigger if Miui9 will be worst or the same of Miui8 regarding performance. I read in that topic about how good are LineageOS , Resurrection Remix , and the NitrogenOS . And how good is Radon kernel.
My question is for all of you who have had the honor of trying different Roms :
Which custom rom + custom kernel combination is the best for Redmi note 3 Pro SE currently?
the question is about:
~ most stable rom (main device and should work perfectly)
~ better performance with better battery backup
~ best game performance (in particular playing Marvel future fight that lags even with ultra low setting)
Thanks in advance to those who will illuminate my path.

Thanks Noter.
Before posting i searched and i found only mainly old thread . In the latest one (from august) the answer is Los + radon (gaming config) .
Is it still the best configuration ?
I read about the good benchmark score with NitrogenOS , but i don't know if it is so stable!
EDIT: i found a post on december about : AOSIP 6.3 saying that is best for gaming. Someone can confirm ?

I have a Kenzo. Mi config is:
RR + Radon Kernel + Magisk 14 + Dolby Atmos.
This config gives me 8 hours of SoT with a 1 hour playing Heroes Evolved, and without playing gives me 9-10 hours of SoT with battery performance profile.
Why i choosed RR???... Cuz that rom has a lot options to customize the system (the best rom for customize all), great support and a big comunity (with facebook and g+ groups) , monthly updates and a full support for sustrabtum theme engine.

you need to be very active in the miui forum, until you get the Diamond member degree, then with a Chinese proxy you have to ask for the unlock permission in the miui china page. you do not need to wait for the SMS to arrive being diamond memeber, it's instantaneous. then go back to the same link and download the application to unlock the phone. You go to developer options (I did it from the stable global rom with no problems) activate unlock OEM and enter the option that says link MI account with this phone. once linked (if throwing error uses a Chinese VPN) the only thing you should do is wait 72hs clock and voala, you can unblock without problems. I took only 3 days to do it, because I was using miui for 6 months until one day I confirmed a moderator who did not have android 7 for RN3 and it warmed me up and unlocked it ... I became an official beta tester ...
You can also do it without being a member, but I recommend you write some post to see that you exist as a user and then ask for permission. in that case, wait a few days to see if the SMS arrives and keep trying to enter the link where you ask for the unlocking. when it gives you the option to download MIUI unlock tool means that you have permission, do not forget to bind the phone to your account in developer options or it will not work.
I'm currently using Citrus CAF with shadow kernel on a 2GB Kate officially unlocked in one day, and I can't be happier, I have tried a lot of ROMs in combination with various kernels and IMHO my actual combo it's the sweetspot, Oreo works great but there's some random bugs and performance issues here and there, nougat is kinda more mature in some aspects, and regarding custom kernels for me Agni and radon are sh*tty most of the time, even with the "just wait for xx kernel magic to work" thing that never happened to we. Meanwhile shadow, elementalX and francokernel are the ones that actually were better than the ones bundled with the ROMs and actually felt as if something improved on my device

thanks for your explanation . I'm now a gold member (just checked) , but i applied 8 months ago (when i was registered since few month on miui forum) for the unlock permission and i received the SMS after few days . I tried to unlock the phone with official way too trying for several months , but probably they locked my permission . I tried waiting weeks and months too but i can't bound the account.
On miui forum a user told me that now the best way is create a new account because mine is blocked regarding the unlock , but before i have to disconnect the phone from my main account, and then apply again with a new account .
A lot of people solved doing like this .
So i want to install the miui 9 and apply again .. so in the while i can try this last MM version or miui .

Thanks for your answer : on miui forum they told me that francokernel is really good for battery backup.
I opened this thread here because as you can imagine every user said something different about what is the best . .. So i would like to understand a bit more.
As i said , i'm interested more in gaming performance and i don't know how much a kernel could influence this .

Nos 8.1 + radon 6.2 battery backup, impressive
I just made account on miui, connected with my device, applied for unlock, never received confirmation, but I could unlock it next day. I still can do it...done it many times.
You just need to install adb drivers in PC and MiFlash and download mi unlock tool and unlock it.
I guess it should be done on developer version, not sure if you can unlock on stable.
For best performance and stability I would recommend last Nitrogen 8.1, magisk 15.x for root and kernel adiutor or ex kernel manager, then you can apply settings as you wish and UV it a bit if you like. You can try other kernels such as shadow, agni...
Screenshots are from 26/12 and 28/12 build
Using Dirty unicorn no 11.7.2 by neonkat over a week now . didn't flashed any mods or anything just magisk and I get average of 8 hours sot . and gaming performance is good I play clash royale and Mobile legend bang bang a lot. Have moderate customization and performs well with stock kernel .

Do you have KATE ? I tried the official unlock , i received confirmation and i followed all the official guides for do it , but me and a lot of kate users (as you can read in official forum ) had the same problem unlocking it . I think it just some problem with their servers regarding this device . I tried with both beta version and stable on miui 8 .. no way!
i will try soon .. with miui 9

what theme are you using?
Gift to family member, so warranty not much of an issue, and can go back to stock if they don't like it.
Talking about general stability, and actual improvements over stock miui (and software-nerfed camera?), should I flash latest LOS & GCam before I give it or should I leave it stock?
I think for a non techie you should just leave it as it is..
Easy updates..
And gcam probably would work after some stable updates..
If not use the one V1a work nicely on stock rom except for video
For a non techie? Strictly no. It's not stable. Also videos in gcam aren't stabilized so they appear low in quality.

Hell NOOOO. Just leave it as it is.
For a non-techie? No.
In some devices LOS is perfect. For our device, it needs a bit more maturation. It isn't a bad ROM, the devs are geniuses. But MIUI is far better to a newbie and even a techie. I tried LOS and reverted to MIUI.
Maybe Xiaomi.eu's MIUI could be better to a newbie user.

At this moment, NO. As another member said, LOS is a great ROM and my Nexus 4 has amazing battery and performance on it. But for POCO F1, it is not yet that perfect. In course of time, it will be. But for a non-techie, the stock ROM is better till then.

Hi dude sorry for disturbing yout but i would like to ask yout something
Is it possible to have TWRP installed and flash MIUI oficial ROMS from twrp? Should i use something called lazyflasher?
Thanks in advance :fingers-crossed:
I'd recommend debloating global rom, or flashing xiaomi.eu rom. You could install gcam as a secondary camera.
Leave it on MIUI imo. They will get regular updates and security patches from Xiaomi.
Bloatware removal is a non-issue for a non-techie.
They will probably find the on-board apps quite useful like qr code reader, compass, notes, screen recorder etc.
I would update via OTA to latest MIUI, factory reset it and allow them to set-up as new.

You can install official miui through twrp, but it has to be full rom not ota, if you want to install ota through twrp too then you need orangefox twrp as normal twrp doesn't support ota updates only full rom flashing. Hope this helps.
Let the rom as stock. You can easily remove bloatware with adb.
A big NO for non tech people, miui is preety decent and easy to use and updates reguraly with security patches
Hi guys,
this is my first experience report about my new Poco X3 NFC with Miumi 12 after 14 days in use....
To explain: 2 years ago i got my first xiaomi redmi note 6 pro global. This machine is a fine thing, but i never liked the miui surface. So i decided to unlock and root the phone and use a custom rom. This was the very best decision for me.
So far, so good... At least i bougth my new Poco X3 NFC and i got 14 days ago. I heard a lot of "good" things about the new Miui 12, so that was one reason for me to catch this deal....
After nearby 14 days using this phone with this original surface Miui 12 i can say: it sucks, nothing else but the original apps are running smooth. It is nearly impossible to run an alternative launcher, really nothing runs flawless on this terrible, awful surface! The simplest things like "notification badges" etc. are not present, they still are not in function...
Ok, Miui "spend" a launcher: Poco Launcher. Hmm, nearby, but (for me) lightyears away from any kind of personalization. Change icons? Runs partially... Want to unlink the fu..... ring- and notification sounds? Misrepresented!!! This (for me) confusing settings menu? There is no better thing than a clean android system or custom rom!
The next annoying crap is the annoying advertising - i spend a "little" time to "destroy" this really sucking "feature".....
Oh, before i forgot: i tried to run the launchair launcher, ruthless launcher, nova launcher, microsoft launcher and at least hyperion launcher. With all this launchers it is on my phone totally impossible to run all features - on every other phone with custom rom or original they run like hell!
The one and only way to operate this phone "fine and smoothly" is this: leave it in its original condition! But who wants this? Personalization? Inadequate....
But yes, there are two things they are fine: the energy options and the camera app. But thats it for me.
So, this is my experience after 14 days and the next thing i will do is unlock the bootloader, install a recovery systen (maybe twrp or orange fox) and root the phone with magisk. With this solution i hope to improve some things - i 'll keep testing this
Best wishes and greets
I'm using Nova Launcher on all devices since a couple of years. Mui has the habit of preventing background tasks and autostart(never saw this before) for all apps except Xiaomi and Google ones and probably a few other. Autostart, notifications and widgets i only need for a handful of apps(including the launcher), and none of these worked out of the box.
But all relevant options are bundled in the app's context menu, no scrolling thru huge lists including all the system apps. Simply allow autostart, disable powersaving and give the app more or less all access rights. Running pretty well now. It's only the most bloated phone i ever had, but also the most powerful, so thats not an issue at present.
Hi lecorbusier,
thanks for your answer.
With your sentence >It's only the most bloated phone i ever had, but also the most powerful< your totally right
Yesterday i unlocked my X3, flashed TWRP - and wow: System destroyed....
Turned to fastboot, flashed OrangeFox, puh, it 's not broken....
Flashed Magisk also and today i will see what happen....
Lmao, who told you that MIUI is a good thing. It's ok, but compared to custom ROM it sucks.
If you want to try custom ROM, ArrowOS is the best optimized custom ROM + Void custom kernel If you want maximum fluidity/smoothness as it's optimized for minimum latency and jank. Battery life is still good in my usage, maybe 2 hours less maximum, but it's worth it. With stock kernel, SOT is a bit better.
ArrowOS gets improvements every day on ROM side with fixes & improvements + occasionally improvements & fixes to the device side.
I tried 5 other custom ROMs (crDroid, Resurrection Remix, LineageOS 17.1, CorvusOS, NitrogenOS) and that's my experience.
Everything works except fast charging information with Xiaomi charger (all custom ROMs have this issue) & Miracast (which I'm not sure if it works or not since I never used it).
So all in all, just flash custom ROM in this one too!
Devil's advocate here ( ), Xiaomi.eu with updated firmware and Stormbreaker kernel feels smooth as butter here -- but it takes some intensive tweaking.
Hi there, good morning from Germany
A short "update"....
After "repairing" (see 3 posts above) I've done the following:
Installed Lsposed (Magisk), installed CustoMIUIzer and started "playing" with the mass of settings in it....
What should I say: I'm pretty impressed.
Almost everything is going as hoped and does what it should! Till now I got no numbers on my notification badges, but this is a part I can live with.
That doesn't mean that i have changed my opinion about the MIUI-Surface, especially the terribly nested settings.... But with a bit of work you can establish a relatively well-running system that you can personalize according to your wishes.
So for the moment I'm pretty happy, but I'm still testing...
Ah, before i forget to mention: magisk and safetynet was another problem. I have found a module that works (for me), look here
So, thats it for today, many greetings and happy easter
Hello everyone,
here 's another short update for miui....
The good news first: it runs, Ruthless Launcher is working, original camera app is fine, other things: see my post above...
That 's it!
Unlock by (or with) bluetooth??? Fail! It seems that Xiaomi only supports its own devices - what a crap.... I clearly miss this function.
I stick to my opinion: miui sucks....
The only point that keeps me from installing a custom rom is the camera app (at least for the moment)...
My conclusion: to use all possibilities of this device you "must" use a custom rom, otherwise you have to live with the restrictions

My main reason to keep Xiaomi.eu, too. When LOS becomes official, I'll brace myself for intensive testing of camera alternatives...
for me, personally, i dont like miui as well. luckily we have a bunch of custom roms out there and even i found a better rom for my daily use, i still try flashing some rom to experience some other features. tho, at the end of the day, i end up using my rom that i am using daily. if you want the rom with alot of customization, have a good BB, and have miui camera, i suggest to use Ancient OS
Hi all together
@dahrel22: thanks for your tip, it seems like this is what i was looking for...
I think I'll test it out, I can't do more than break it
Have a nice Sunday, many greetings from here...

yes bro you better try it. im currently using the old build which is the miui verdor based. the new build comes with oss vendor but i think im not ready to flash it. i having trouble keeping my phone decrypted from oss vendor based roms. so i'll still be using the old build.
After the updates my Poco x3 NFC restarts in stand-by mode or when I'm using whatsapp, suddenly the screen goes to black..and then back to the homescreen... :/
Does anybody tried a custom rom? I would like to give a try.
Hello to everybody,
here 's my newest experience with "Miui-machine"...
I tried the tip from dahrel22 (see 4 posts above) und flashed Ancient OS 5.3 - I did everything according to the description, but in the end I had an encrypted partition on my phone....
Yesterday I had the great idea to cleam my device up und flash it again...
What can i say: it was a horrible trip
Like before I 've done everything as described - but it ends with a lot of issues like "no root" and "no system" directory, unable to mount system partion and so on and so on... This action cost me a lot of annoyance
(I tried this with two custom roms: Ancient OS 5.4 and Evolution X).
I was then able to revive the device using fastboot and the mi flashtool.
The Mi-Flashtool also ended with an error, but the system works - for whatever reason???
So at the moment I'm "driving" this damn Miui again and I'm really pissed off!
Maybe someone from you has a "smooth" idea to solve my problem??
Many greetings and thanks

im feel so sorry when i read your experience. maybe some confusion because 2 builds at the same version have different vendor based. both of them are comes with 5.3 but one comes with miui, one comes with oss. as i say i really have a hard time to keep my phone decrypted on oss when im using orange fox (now im in twrp but still no planning of flashing oss) if you flashed the old build, i mean the miui vendor based build, i think the outcome will be better.
what version of miui are you into right now?
edit: you know i feel bad for you as you need to do this "mi-flashtool" kind of stuff. next time, if you make mistake flashing something, i suggest just to flash miui rom again (miui eu will do) using recovery (i suggest twrp). i did that before many times and it never fails me.
