[HELP] Theme on xiaomi mi a3 - Xiaomi Mi A3 Questions & Answers

Hi everyone, I'm new in the forum (sorry for the bad english, I'm italian). I have a xiaomi mi a3, it's great but after the update to Android 11 i have a problem:
in Android 10 i changed the color of system and my cousin in his mi a3 changed the font (all on the developer option, nothing modded). Now in andoid 11 there isn't the option to change the color and font. So, how i can change this option without modding?? Thaks.

Hi, it certainly fails because with the update the modules have also changed so you also lose the previous one did you make a backup before? also on Drive and then download the internal archive which then depends on the software anyway go to your menu at the top right click Forums and try with another Guide address, good luck

Some help understanding my Redmi 3

Hi guys,
Long time Android user here - I've recently sold my Blackberry Priv and have picked up a Redmi 3. I'm struggling to wrap my head around the ROM terminology for this device.
- I am based in the UK, I can see in my device settings that I am on a 'Global' ROM
- I can see that there is a 7.3 version of miui available for this device, but cant find a reliable download source (currently running 7.2.7.0.0 - LHPCNDB)
- Will Miui 8 be released for this device (Global?)
- If I choose to flash the device with a Chinese version, what will the differences in the software be?
- The BL unlocking processes confuses me - do I literally need to send a request to Xiaomi for this to be done or can I do it via a tool?
I think this is all for now - I'd appreciate some help clearing up the above questions.

There is no official global rom for this device at the moment. Your rom seems to be a cooked room by the seller.
Official rom comes with English and Chinese only (and a lot of Chinese useless apps)
My suggest is to flash official developer rom (you need the developer rom to unlock bootloader), unlock bootloader (yes you need to apply for it to Xiaomi). Once unlocked, install twrp and a stable unofficial eu rom (this one has no OTA but is clean off Chinese apps).
If you have the no-pro version, you can also try the CM12 from this forum. It seems to be a very good rom.

You should apply to unlock your bootloader first; just make a Mi Account and go through the process. You might have to wait a few days (I waited 6). Some good tutorials are available on the MIUI forums or here on XDA.
After you've unlocked the bootlader, the next step is to flash a custom recovery such as TWRP (also on XDA), then a custom ROM of your choice. I reccommend installing xiaomi.eu if you live in Europe for the good localizations. Otherwise you can install the Chinese Stable / Dev ROM at your choosing; it has English language but some of the Chinese apps might annoy you. MIUI8 has been released for the Chinese developer ROM, and therefore the xiaomi.eu custom ROM which uses it as base. A CM 12.1 build is also available on XDA if you're into that, although it has some bugs regarding the camera, fingerprint sensor, and GPS.

Xiaomi redmi note 4 "problem"

Hi, I need some help with my device redmi note 4. Recently I was able to install TWRP and root, and with that I installed one of those hacking tools, game killer and game hacker. I gave them root permission and accepted some of the things they needed, until they asked for the floating icon thing, where I went to all the permissions of the application and I didn't found it, and when I saw that I rembered that, even before I unlocked the bootloader and all, I never had the floating messenger bubble, that I had in older devices. Does that mean that the MIUI I have right now, that it is development ROM MIUI 9 8.5.25, does not support those floating icons? And if it does support, how do I activate it?
I would really want to know this, thanks in advance.

[help] Lenovo Z5 Chinese room and updates

Hello everyone!
I put myself in a problem here, my mum wanted a new phone and I suggest led Lenovo Z5 as her best option.
I put my money into my alipocket and I was about to buy it when I noticed that there isn't any official international ver of it.
I wouldn't mind the Chinese room if it means I get updates, but I don't know if I can actually install Google play on it..I can't see any info on Zmui
Also if I bought the Chinese ver,will I be able to flash a official international stock rom on it and receive OTA update?
Or will the same idea work if I bought the rooted ver they offer?
about z5
i am a chinese and i bought a Z5 about 3 weeks ago.
The most attractive part of the phone is the 1080P LED screen after using a AMOLED for a long time (worried about my eyesight)
I've never used a ZUI before (i've MI 3 && OP3T). Before buying the phone, my friend tell me about the bad impact of ZUI to his Z2 (AnTuTu Tester remark is lower a lot than a aosp and some roms ) which means the optimization of ZUI may be bad.
After getting the phone, the ZUI annoy me ... Though the ZUI 3.9Ver is based on 8.1 with GAPPS in it, the settings is too poor and the gesture is not well enough. Although with a 6G size RAM, it killed app even you lock it (the utilization is low means most of ram is useless ....). I dislike the ZUI default launcher(ZUI launcher) and replace it with Pixel launcher.
About Root: the phone do not support root or you Warranty is go, but you still have way to root it
About OTA: the rom support OTA if it is not rooted
hmmm last i cannot find any rom like los to flash (that's really shame)
I am really satisfied with the screen ( it must be the best in screen in this price )
Hi
I just bought the phone and it will arrive next week.
I have been really attracted by the looks.
I think I can leave with ZUI.
But tell me how is the performance of the camera both in good but also low light conditions?
Hi i'm from Spain and i love the desing of this phone levono z5 but i want to know if it comes with ZUI i could change it to android, is this posible?

Here's the link in Chinese. https://club.lenovo.com.cn/forum-1490-0-0-reply_time-0-1
Hi, i am assuming you dont like ZUI and want to change to stock android,
Well the phone is still new to the market, i have not seen any developer working on a rom yet, as of now there are no other options then using the stock operating system.
FYI, i am using Zuk z2 pro with custom rom from mokeedev which is also stock android. I got my Lenovo Z5 last week, there is lot of chinese bloatware in there, so i havent switched yet, i am also waiting for a different android operating system. hope this helps.
I bought one from DX.com
You can switch the language to English, but there will be a few Chinese elements (eg. on the keyboard)
These can be easily fixed by installing a 3rd party keyboard, for example.
Mine didn't come with any Google apps but I was able to install the Google Play Store from this APK:

It supports project treble. Some users flashed the stock rom through that. But I think official engineers never try hard in bug fix.
Thanks everyone about the information! If only Lenovo used Stock android like Umidigi Z2! It would have been excellent to use
But is Lenovo z5 going to have a Android P update? If so then wouldn't that optime the phone in the future?
Or is it possible to wait for a working stock android rom for Lenovo z5 ?
Another thing, my mum loves the super bright screen on Lenovo and it's big, she says she wants a lot of her apps running in the background and she needs USB C
I don't trust Umidigi phones, Oppo A5 is over priced with no fingerprint sensor and low ram, vivo phones don't have USB C and xiaomi phones are just darn ugly.
is there any twrp in our lenovo z5?

Lenovo Z5 ROM problem
:crying:Good afternoon, I bought a lenovo z5 arrived yesterday, when I called it I noticed that there was no software of the ZUI, ie, it has a rom that is not for this phone, does not match the notifications with the notch, has navigation bar etc. nothing matches, what do I do? Does anyone know where I can download the appropriate ROM for it?
i bought it at geekbuying
I'm in the same exact situation as Paulacfmsimoes, bought the z5 from geekbuying and it came preinstalled with a butchered frankestein version of the stock rom. Its bootloader is unlocked as well. I'm desperately trying to find a way to install the normal stock rom version, so if anyone has an idea, please help!
Please HELP!!!
I Deleted some important system files on the phone and now it does not torn on.
i did managed to install the TWRP recovery so if one of you guys hes this phone and you can upload me a system backup with TWRP you will save my ass!!
i bought this phone to my girlfriends birthday and now its dead
pleaseee replay and help me
This would be the absolute perfect time for one of you guys to help us out. (both us idiots that bought the phone from geekbuying with that beaten down custom rom and cohavio as well). I anyone with ZUI 3.9 that has the chinese and english version of the rom could make a back-up, that would be awesome!

I don't have the phone yet. But its possible that I will have it for a short time. If you tell me exactly how did you install TWRP (steps and the image of TWRP you used) and a proof that it works I may be able to help you.
If anyone knows chinese, I think I found the solution to all our problems. I stumbled across this forum where the guys have a tool originally designed to unbrick / and or return the phone back to stock.

WPA2-AES with Android 10

Hi Everyone
Received mi MI A3 (EU) Version this week and was very disappointed, as it doesn't seem to support wpa2-aes.
Does somebody know, if the upgrade to android 10 will solve this issue?
Thanks
my router force wpa2-aes, work welly well with mi a3 eu version.
Mi A3 supports WPA2-AES. Like pretty much every Android device does since Android 2.0.x.
Thx for your answers. That's strange. Found several threads (other forums), where it was described as not working. Would have added the links but are not yer able due to the restriction of the forum.

1. Never
2. and 3. irrelevant, see above
4. bootloader unlocking does not void the warranty, bricking your device due to your own fault might be refused by service center as a warranty repair
Not sure why do you expect MIUI to be bug free, it has even more bugs/design failures than clean Android. If at all, I would move to Pixel devices (which are not bug free either though).

Not officially (not on locked bootloader, no OTA, no support by Xiaomi,..). Maybe someone will port it, but it's not as stable as stock ROM.

1) When xiaomi cc9e get the official miui 12, someone will port to mi a3
2) All new xiaomi`s phone have camera 2api enabled
3) Xiaomi Mi A3 with miui doesn´t have mota updates, all updates will have to install manually with recovery
4) recently xiaomi said that unlock bootloader not unable the warranty but, I think that depend of where do you buy the phone.
I use miui in my mi a3 and i dont have any problem. I think that is better than android stock in mi a3. miui is better with amoled display for me.

I have an idea that xaomi won't give official miui12 update to an android one phone, what I actually meant was when will I be able to install it on mi a3.
Secondly ...do i will have to install a ported version only, what about the stock vesrion for the MI CC9 the Chinese veriant of this phone ?

And when you hold the button to turn off the menu does not appear.
link below for those who want to test.
please if anyone can fix it i would appreciate it.
I hope I'm not posting in the wrong place.

I realized after installing that there were a few different things but the basics were the same.
I have the V6 installed at the moment.
I thought it was better but I would still like Miui 12.
Ps: Thanks for the tip.
