Hello,
I want to personalize my mido.
So i think that the best way is to install base(rom) and add some mods.
1. What's rom should be good for base? The more compability the better. Maybe LOS 14.1?
2. What about kernel? Stock or something other? I need stability.
3. Root... magisk
4. Do I need xposed?
5. Good mod for camera. I need manual focus and iso working. Can be bacon camera, but i need these options - I dont have it on epic rom/moded miui.
6. Audio mod - I dont have any idea.
So, can you help?
The easiest way to personalize Miui is a launcher and an icon pack. Other things, like Magisk, for me, is a way of having more privileges to make things that , other way, you could not.
What rom you must use, well, it is up to you. You must think of the things you have with stock rom (Miui) or another rom, like Lineage or RR. Personally I like very much miui and I do not need pure android because many things a use in my day by day are in MIUI and If I would change rom I would have to install apks for them
About Xposed, I think is not optimiced for Miui but for others rom like RR or Lineage.
To change Miui, install Xposed or Magisk, you must unlock the bootloader and take some risks.
One question team- if people can download the MIUI ROM from the official MI website, why there is a need of installing this firmware?
Is it different?
Can you guyz also realease MIUI with PICO gapps installed
I installed MIUI back because of every other rom was so unstable. I used TWRP to get back to official MIUI. have magisks too
Is there a way to DEGRADE my current Gapps to PICO?
this is to save battery and performance
I tried all the versions of miui (except chinese and I´ll never try) like official of course, miuihellas, miui.it, miuisu, miuiam, miui,eu, developer version, from a chinese forum (红米5 Plus MIUI9 8.3.18开发 主题破解 快如闪电 人脸解锁 高级设置 小爱同学 精品必刷), greatslon, minovo, miuipro, globerom and finally multirom http://en.miui.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=2278183&highlight=redmi+5+plus and this is the best version for me and it has like some of the mentioned roms a minimal gapps just to make Google runs. Play Store, Gboard and GoogleQuickSearch are the three apps for the user but you can uninstall two of them.

I too came back to MIUI after tinkering with some random ROM's , while it seems like u tried all the MIUI ROM's i do not get how you went for MultiRom instead of MiuiPro. MiuiPro has awesome tweaks and extra options built into the system which makes the Mi experience a bit flexible. Please elaborate on why you chose MultiRom and list a few of its exclusive features ( if it has some ).
I think you're looking for a lightweight option, something like Xiaomi.EU
They base their development on the Chinese beta, so you'll be having the newest freatures. They remove all the bloatware that's by default in the ROM and the set of google apps that the rom includes is really small, so the ram usage is lower and there's more free storage space.
I don't know what you're looking for, but if you really need to have just pico o micro gapps, your best choice is a custom rom. MIUI is not a light product.

Well, the last version I tried was 8.3.29, I see that now is on 8.4.19 maybe there´s some improvement but I didn´t see any special in this version before but advanced reboot, theme store is in chinese and nor on the version mentioned above, my second candidate is miu.hellas from greece and greatslon that has bigger letters in statusbar.
Maybe the main reason is the stability, performance, time to response, battery, I love customise and I have more than 100 themes (I never find one perfect) and I have 31GB free yet and the rom is fast despite of this and by last ram management; when I leave an activity and after 4 hours is there waiting for me, also is important for me to enlarge all, icons, letters, display (not so bigger) how it looks visually in aspect/ratio cause in some roms I changed display size and looks really weird or some object don´t match with the border, it looks like they are out of display.
It´s pretty hard to say a definitive "this is the best" cause it depends in the user preferences, I didn´t find any special tweak in any rom like on Epic rom (a great and really customized) that I used in my last Xiaomi but unfortunately they don´t develop for this device
Checked, MIui PRO is not yet available for my phone... or either i was unable to find it cuz every page was written in Russian.
Can anyone share a direct link for me to download and install the MIui PRO on my Redmi note 5 vince
How to revert back to stock miui(Indian) and relock the bootloader ?
To relock bootloader you don't need to flash a rom but if you want then flash the rom via MiFlash Tool (XiaoMiFlash) and choose the 3rd option to relock bootloader right down (clean all and lock)
It is time to create a new thread to avoid the others from going fully out of control.
My kitchen is finally working fine again, the test firmwares so far function within my expections.
I don't really need much for my needs, meaning my personal firmware will be quite basic.
But I would like to also provide some nice firmware for those out there currently not considering to upgrade to the 7.2.x firmwares.
The basic idea is to have something ready to be flashed with TWRP to get a fully working and mostly already updated 7.1 with full root rights.
What shall go in in terms of stock or additional apps is up to you guys.
A filemanager? Name it...
Additional video player? Again, let me know which one is prefered.
Maybe something like HaLauncher to get easy access to the non TV apps?
Or shortcuts to launch them from the default launcher?
Ad blocker maybe?
Or some Magisk modules?
I think you got the basic idea!?
This type of thread is more suited in general/guides than a dev thread.. at least until custom rom links are available
Fair enough, I then first make one, then add what might be needed, then start again.
Well, then just remove or delete the topic until then I guess....
Can't seem to be able to do it myself, so please go ahead.
Will post again once the rom is done.
Hi all,
Right, so crDroid has unfortunately stopped passing safetynet without root, so I cant use some apps and my banking app any more
Can someone suggest a new ROM for me to use? There are so many to pick from, and I dont have time to test them all.
I dont have many requirements, just after stability mainly:
- Android 10 (doesnt have to be, but would be preferred)
- Not MIUI (not a fan of the battery and RAM management)
- Can pass safetynet and play store cert without root (I have no need for root)
- Can use a GCAM port (doesnt need to be built in or anything)
- Has long press volume to skip music track while screen is off
- Decent signal performance
If anyone can give me some suggestions, or share which ROM they use, that would be very helpful!
Thanks,
donk165

Pixel Experience 10 Plus Edition
Havoc OS
Evolution X
These are the roms which I have personally used. They are good as a daily driver and fulfill your needs.
Not sure about the 4 point but if any of them have prebuilt GCam you can use TWRP file manager to delete it. No need to root.
Lightheart 1.0 - The key to speed.
Hi everyone. My name is Skulldron and for those of you who do recognise me, know me as the creator of Project Pixel, another one of the greatest ways to emulate the Pixel Experience, whilst keeping all the benefits of using OneUI and its stock optimized drivers as its base. Today I'm going to introduce something, different. Over the years of working on Touchwiz based ROMs, I've learnt the description of every little apk, every little permission, what it accepts and what it rejects, its pros and its cons. As a result of this experience, I have one of the best debloat lists out there, with each item on the debloat list, being tested, through extensive testing, and it goes over every file and every partition known in the OneUI OS. This exact same debloat script was used in Project Pixel, which has received positive review after positive review for how efficient and how lightweight OneUI became after the debloat. Today however, I present to you Lightheart OS, a new project that I will be building myself and updating monthly. Today I showcase Lionheart, the Lineage OS to my Cyanogenmod.
Key Features:
1. Heavily Debloated System: The debloat script that was made by me, has over 250+ debloated permissions, apks and other files.
2. Better Battery Performance due to Efficiency - With the removal of an incredible amount of bloat, along with better performance and lesser services, you should be looking at better SOTs and better standby times.
3. Kernel Power Control: With MTweaks and Magisk, you will be able to control your device’s clock speed and be able to force higher GPU and CPU Clock, when doing more intensive tasks such as gaming.
4. Better Kernel Performance - Due to the deepness of the debloat, the kernel now has more RAM and more space to be more efficient and allow it to focus on less threads at once.
5. Current October Patch with the promise of updates every month - Every month an update is released, the ROM will be updated along with it, with a time frame of 1-2 weeks.
6. Restored some stock Google Permissions - Some stock google framework was restored, such as the default setup wizard.
7. All Essential Samsung Features have been kept - All essential OneUI features have been kept alive, for the sole purpose of necessity.
8. Completely Deknoxed -The ROM has been Deknoxed and FRP lock measures have been disabled
9. VoLTE Supported
Individual Features:
1. AdAway
2. Eleven Music
3. Files GO
4. GBoard
5. Android Pie AOSP Emojis
6. Lightheart X Boot Animation
7. AOSP System Sounds
8. Samsung Gallery (Stripped Down and lightened to improve performance)
9. Samsung's Stock Camera with HDR parameter changes, debloated and additional video modes
10. SystemUI Tuner (Provides battery stats along with other useful customizations - Check QS icons and add it to QS Panel to view)
11. YouTube Vanced (Ad-free Youtube)
12. Mtweaks (Has Hardware Control - Similar to Kernel Adiutor but more tailored to Exynos)
INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS: (Backup everything first, including contacts, photos, etc.)
1. Download the zip and download the latest Magisk (ROM will not boot if Magisk is not flashed due to encryption procedures)
2. Wipe System, Data, Dalvik Cache and Cache
3. Flash the zip and flash Magisk.
Notes:
- To view Battery Stats and Storage, pull down the Quick Settings Panel and on the top right click the three bubbles button and then Button Order. Then move the new Battery and Storage icon to the Quick Settings.
- Set Trebuchet as default launcher, for better battery savings. OneUI Home was only included for its app switcher.

1.0 - Initial Release
If changes are made, they will be highlighted in the next post.

Downloading now so will give it a try. Thanks for the new Rom.
Very fast and smooth Rom.
Missing Samsung sync so I would recommend backing up apps like Phone, Messages, notes, calendar, etc before flashing so you can restore via titanium or another If you use samsung to backup these up as you won't be able to restore them.
I personally have installed the Samsung keyboard back on as I prefer this to Google for pen functions.
I also installed samsung store apk which allows me to update samsung apks and also assist with my Gear watch.
Defo worth a try to see for yourselves.
Would be nice to have some flashable options for those that need certain things.

Sweet. Since I've seen many users requesting for certain features back, I will make flashable zips to re-enable particular features and call them modules

It's one of the fastest ROM I've ever use. Buttery smooth, too
The lack of Samsung sync is not something to worry about. I use Smart switch and it work fine.
Thank you for this great Rom. I think there should be flashable zips like for wearable support or like for samsung sync support.
It is very good rom anyway. Again thank you very much.

Using root file manager (I use solid explorer) extract the zip and copy the folder and file in above link into Root-System-PrivApp and make sure the attributes are set to rw-r-r (as below) then reboot and select the keyboard in your settings.
