Yesterday I received MIUI 12.1.4 Global Stable update Redmi K20. Which is full of bugs.
1. For example: Now I cannot use open with option for any file type. If I want to send an image via whatsapp, I cant do that. When I click the image and select "complete action using", I get error"No apps can open this content"
2. Similarly, if I want to send an app link via whatsapp, it gets stuck in a loop of "open with".
3. Dark theme for apps does not work. Even if I forcefully turn on the dark mode for an app which doesnot support dark mode, the app shows in Light theme. MIUI 11 was able to do this fine.
In summary, this is the most UNstable ROM I have seen. I dont know why are they calling it Stable ROM.

What's your location? I don't see any sources that this build will be available for the Mi 9T in Europe.
The last thing I heard was an update from 12 0.5 to 12.0.9 just updating the security patch.

Hi, I am from India using Redmi K20 pro. I got this stupid update and now I am also facing this issue. Can't share anything over whatsapp because of this.
I own a Redmi K20 (davincii-Indian device), I got this update yesterday. Incoming and outgoing calls get disconnected automatically ever since.
I also flashed this update but I don't face any of the issues mentioned here. Rom is smooth.
Battery backup is a bit low but that maybe my 2yr old phone.
After receiving this 12.1.4 update on my K20 here in India call signal strength has gone down massively, so has the battery life & there's a lot of stutter while switching between apps, it feels like I've downgraded from a 60hz refresh rate to 30 hz
i was updated my mi 9t yesterday.
This is version for mi pilot members only and I'm one of them It's much better than previous 12.1.2 version.
Switching beetween apps is smooth as never before, whole rom is buttery smooth. I have only one issue with gallery app. When I switch between Albums and Pictures by swiping, app crashing.

yeah I saw it too on telegram but I have it by OTA so I don't know that you can flash by yourself, ask on mi community forum
Hello, I also have a Xiaomi Mi 9t global. I updated to 12.0.9 QFJMIXM a while ago because my device is QFJMIXM, but this morning MIUI 12.1.4 RFJMIXM appeared as available for update in my settings, so I updated. I was unaware of the Raphel and Davanci and was concerned after updating, but I contacted the Xiaomi support team in the USA and they assured me that everything is fine and there is nothing to worry about. I haven't discovered any problems in mine yet, like you stated, but if I do, I will publish them on XDA.

hey! I have the same issue, last night I updated my Redmi K20 to MIUI 12.1.4, and nothing works, the gestures are gone, the dark mode doesn't work and the battery performance has gone down significantly. I can't use any 3rd party launchers. Is there any way to fix this or roll back to a previous version? ( unlocking bootloader takes wayy too much time though )

Im not on 12.1.4 but accordingly to Xoaomi.eu (EMUI 12.6):
- gestures should work with stock launcher
- Settings, Display, More dark mode options, and disable Dark mode for few apps (e g. Facebook) where you have problems with
- Also, to avoid problems like: cannot open this or that, cannot share pictures, etc: Settings, Apps, Manage apps, navigate to WhatsApp, Browser, etc and for each of them enable Permissions, Access items in the clipboard

i am sorry to hear about your issues after the update; please contact the xiaomi support team online if your issues remain unresolved: https://www.mi.com/global/support/contact/. I also have a xiaomi mi 9T and since updating to 12.1.4 RFJMIXM, I've discovered three bugs. The first is that my wifi logo occasionally says it's turning on when it isn't; secondly, I normally record my calls; now, when I record them and try to play them back using the xiaomi recorder, it says the file cannot be found or is corrupt, which is false; when I use my file manager, I can play them back with third party players such as stellio music and The third issue I discovered is that when I use ultra battery saver, my phone sometimes freezes when i try to exit and I have to force restart my phone.
I also face several issues with A11 on my Note 8T.
1 I get lag in open apps.
2 Screenshot function by 3 finger slide not working even if is selected.
3 Cannot share picture from Gallery and File Manager to WhatsApp.
And who knows how many more bugs are there deep inside... I already see the battery life is shorter...
I wonder, what the Jesus those Xiaomi devs are doing when they work on this versions? There is no quality control on their side? There are lots of beta testers, mi pilots plus their team. How in the Jesus name they do not discover all those bugs before a version goes stable to the users??? GOD ALMIGHTY!

I don't care about the Files app (on any phone), I always use MiXplorer (available from GPlay or XDA)- absolutely the best File Mngr
To share a picture, URL, whatever (probably also causing problems for Open with functionaliries and similar), each and every app (you want to use with) must be granted Clipboard permussion (by default they are not granted)
Also, many problems will be caused by 3rd party launchers - stay with the stock launcher or search around for workarounds (I've recently seen a discussion that for Nova launcher users fixed issues by editing build props, etc)
I personally don't use this 12.1 and don't care about, but I use MIUI 12.1-12.6 A11 from Xiaomi eu (which is based on Xiaomi weekly development builds, from what Xiaomi later releases official updates)a already for 9 months on my daily drivera and I like it (otherwise, I would not stay all the time)!!!
But Ive seen (and experienced) all those and similar issues with MIUI 12+ and A11 and read/found workarounds for those I was interested in (e.g. I didn't care about issues 3rd pty launchers), etc.
I was all that time on Xiaomi eu forum, there are lot of users there (with all phones receiving Xiaomi.eu MIUI 12+/A11 updates), and for any issue there was a discussion there, with workarounds, etc
I just want to say, sorry I'm not going to teach anybody here how to fix this or that, just that I did have similar problems but found the solutions (once you set here or there something, you later forget what and how it was)
But unfortunately, maybe also Xiaomi.eu 12.6 (although formally Beta, based on the latest not-tested weekly fevelopment build) could be more mature than the official 12.1 in some aspects, hence I cannot guarantee you anything about that official 12.1
And one more thing. For some problems on Xiaomi.eu, 'solution' was to Format Data - however, that is required anywhy when you switch the ROM but I agree it is not the 'solution' for everage Joe user who just receives the stock OTA upgrade
Sorry for typos, writing outdoors, on sun, can hardly see what I'm typing in

This is my first attempt at compiling cyanogenmod for my own phone. So far it works OK for me so I decided to share:
WARNING:
As of 20141223 you will need HBOOT version 3.19.000 to be able to use this. in order to get it install the latest firmware from: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2696282
WARNING:
This is an ALPHA built, in other words too many things are broken and expect things to suddenly stop working. Make sure you know how to recover your phone in case anything breaks. If you have a grain of doubt that you may not be able to recover DO NOT PROCEED. and in the end of everything: I do not take any responsibility for anything that may or may not happen to your phone. You are flashing at your own risk not mine.
Requirements:
1. Custom recovery (I used TWRP)
2. Latest firmware version 3.19.000
Files that you need:
CM12 built: http://devbro.com/android/cm-12-20141223-UNOFFICIAL-m8.zip Last stable built with no issues for camera and bluetooth is 20141218
GAPPS: http://d-h.st/YQG
SUPERSU: http://download.chainfire.eu/supersu -- no longer needed
Steps:
0. Create a small temple using your favorite objects and pray to your favorite God or Gods for a successful outcome. I did about 2 hours of praying to Eutykhia. I suggest the same to you.
1. Back up your stuff using Titanium backup
2. Go into recovery
2.1 Do one last nandroid backup here of System, Boot, Recovery and Data
3. Wipe Data, System, Cache, Dalvik
4. install CM12 and GAPPS
5. restart upon completion
Things that do not work:
1. Titanium back up and apps that depend on root may hang. Flash SUPERSU from RECOVERY and it should fix it. Fixed as of 20141220
2. Camera does not work.
3. Bluetooth may not see new devices. Restart before adding each individual device.
4. If Calendar is not syncing install the Google Calendar from the Store
5. Apollo(music player) Keeps on crashing. I used Play Music(google music) to play my musics and it works ok so far. fixed as of 2014-12-06 build. Apollo no longer exists but a new music app that works just fine with nuplayer
6. Probably other stuff that I have not come across yet.
7. I have not been able to get the swype gesture on the keyboard. If you know why please tell us.
If you have suggestions:
Simply post it in the forum and I see What I can do about it. If there are
My mods to this code:
1. I had edited the platform.xml to allow write access to sdcard (aka sdfix)

Looks like you may have fixed more than Apollo in that last build. Camera, calender, and multiple bluetooth pairing worked out-of-the-box. Runs good. Only crash I've encounter so far is in trying to access the in-built Superuser settings, but it's redundant if you use the SuperSU app anyway.
Good job!

For the 2014-12-06 build I got a few more of the drm blobs. Still missing two blobs thought.
Hey, First - Thank You for this ROM it's a great start !
I have been using it since you released it and I just wanted to give my two cents. For being an Alpha build, mostly everything works. I have noticed few bugs but the most annoying one for me is when I'm playing music. 1) I would use Play Music and at first it worked fine but as of today, for some reason, it would play for the first 10 seconds and than it would go off. The music ticker would be increasing but the sound would not play. I would have to skip ahead a track than go back to have it play fully. 2) I also rooted and flashed the ROM on to my coworkers phone and for some reason, his mobile Data wouldn't work yet Wi-Fi works perfectly fine. 3) Something else that I noticed was that, when closing apps, more often than not, after hitting the "close all" tap, I would open the recent apps again and I would have a application running which was closed. 4) I would also get a FC when trying to change the settings in the Messenger app. It's not that important but I thought that I should mention it anyway.
That's all I have at the moment, Thank You again for your hard work.

Thank you so much for the info I will update the thread with these bugs. Here are a few things:
1. for the music player problem go to settings->development options->switch the music option from "nuplayer" to "awesome player"
2. I have no encountered this problem. did you check the APN settings and made sure that network data is enabled?
3. I do sometimes run into this problem
4. Are you using the default messenger app? I use textra which is very similar in look and feel and so far no breakage.
I have been trying to compile a new version but for the past 2 days the latest code off the branch keeps of failing the build at different points. If I get to fix the errors I will try again to upload a new build.

OK so,
1) I had it checked on and now I unchecked it, I will use it as normal and proceed with an update.
2) I'll be honest, he was being an annoyance so I did not check his APN though you are probably right.
3) I am using the stock messenger app. I had the Google application on here but I was receiving and "message not sent" error for some odd reason.
PS: That was a fast reply, good stuff. :good:
Just an update on the Music bug, I unchecked the box as before and after nearly a 24 hour testing period, I have encountered the bug a few times but not a much as before. I would say that I would have to apply the walk around (Changing the track and than going back to what I actually want to listen too) around five times. That is way less than before, so it did address the bug but it did not kill it.

Have you tried other other music players such as play music? I want to know if the bug is exclusive to Apollo or not.
I did have the problem at the beginning and simply seeking the music it helped. I have not encounter that problem for sometime. Plus I have been using a bluetooth headphones so that may have something to do with my case.

I have used Apollo and Play music. Play music is the main one used. On another note, my mobile data also broke just know. I am not sure why so i had to revert to my backed up ROM
Works great so far. Only issue I am getting g is that the screen won't turn off during call. The audio issue happened once and it worked later don't know why. My cars bluetooth works and controls audio but won't get the text messenges. Besides that feels great for being alpha. No crashes so far.
I finally managed to build the source code again. I hope you all like this one.

As for Flash-light app, I used it from the quick setting and it worked just fine for me.

Just a quick update for those using this. I have created a new built for 20141223 but so far i cannot get it to flash on my phone. Something to do with incompatibility between recovery versions. If i get to fix it i will post further updates.

Hello,
My HOnor 5x has been very laggy. I have a tasker task setup to launch Pandora each time I launch Maps. The phone responds very slowly. There are several other apps too where the phone is very very laggy. I have set it up in performance mode but it is still very slow. Anything else I can do about this other than getting a Oneplus 3?
Have you tried a reboot? Oneplus 3 is a High End phone 5x a Mid End with a Low End CPU..

My own Honor 5X is noticably laggy, more so since installing Marshmallow 6.0.1 (also rooted) but not ready to revert back to Lollipop just yet until first completely combing thru every item (or tweak) i might have missed.
The lag i experience is not always persistent just occasional but more often at different stages of usage.
My old HAM 2 with the JellyBelly Android is super snappy in comparison but then the HAM 2 also sports a most formidable powerpack in the battery rating. That battery alone is almost the size of this Honor 5X and is still quite the workhorse.
But i'm determined to maximize Honor 5X (Marshmallow) to it's absolute fullest!

Keep it Stock.. 'Those tweaks make it worse' marshmallow is alot smoother then lollipop.
Unlock the bootloader and flash CM13, it's almost a new phone, no more lags, much better RAM management !

Cool. Is everything working in CM13?
- Is vibrator intensity adjustable? (The stock vibration is so weak compared to my Moto E)
- Fingerprint reader
- External storage? (SD support in CM13 on other devices is very bad)
- Yes (with build 20160726 and newer).
- Yes.
- Yes, even adoptable storage is working.
EMUI is laggy, and probably always will be. As long as you're using a Stock ROM, this will be an issue.
Cm13 with FP working is best thing ever on Honor 5X. NO Lag at all! Totally different phone now. Music is better. Ringtones and notifications. This is not my opinion. Its a fact.lol.

And if you like One plus phone here is how the theme is. Just make sure to update to official MM stock ROM and then go to newest nightly build of CM13. Its easy to flash.

FP is Fingerprint sensor. And it works even better on CM13 then on EMUI somehow.

Hello,
My HOnor 5x has been very laggy. I have a tasker task setup to launch Pandora each time I launch Maps. The phone responds very slowly. There are several other apps too where the phone is very very laggy. I have set it up in performance mode but it is still very slow. Anything else I can do about this other than getting a Oneplus 3?

Hello salilsurendran;67891416,
Thank you for choosing the Honor 5X. We're terribly sorry that your 5X is lagging. What we can advise is shutting off your 5X for 15-20 seconds and then turning it back on. This should refresh your device. Also, if you go into your "Settings" and type in "cache" in the "Search for setting", a tab for "cache data" should pop up. Click it and then go into "Storage cleaner". The program will run and after it's completed, your device should run smoother. If these tips don't help, please give our Honor Support Team a call at 1-844-524-6667 so we can provide further assistance. Thanks for your interest. We appreciate you.(ED)
FingerPrint sensor
When I decided to go stock on this device, I initially used a TWRP image from here somewhere... to go from custom ROM that shall not be spoken of, to stock EMUI M.
It was laggy as all hell.
So, I reverted back to my previous custom ROM using a TWRP backup.
When I decided to try again, I used the DLOAD folder and UPDATE.APP method.
I am still running stock EMUI M. Doing it this way, I have nearly zero lag (on occasion, it happens regardless as to the device in use), and all features are working at least as good as on L.
My suggestion is to start all over again if M is laggy on your Honor 5x. You may have missed a wipe, your SD card could have old files interfering... the list goes on and on...
When in doubt, start all over again.
Ok i'm rooted now and all that Jazz (Thank You Huawei Home for unlock code) plus it went off without so much as a hitch installing TWRP (Very Useful Backups) and SuperSU "AFTER" first doing a easy peasey dload UPDATE.APP to Android Marshmallow!
I ripped the lag out by doing the basics like Huawei_Eric suggests with clearing out via Phone Manager but more importantly using PURITY that although it runs as a process it keeps tabs on apps that might be pulling more than they should which can cause lag.
So now this Huawei Honor 5X is running and here is/was my order of things ok?
(1) Updated perfectly to Marshamallow via UPLOAD.APP
"Discovered some lag after MM update but eventually smoothed out".
(2) Obtained the required device bootloadercode from Huawei Home courtesy their code unlock page
(3) Did the adb routine to unlock bootloader and installed TWRP + SuperSU and made a first backup.
*Of Note* Microsoft Windows 8, 8.1, etc. caused and causes a lot of people problems with getting Android Drivers properly installed and here is one HUGE PROBLEM that can cause you drivers not to take even when you have the right ones!!
Check under your Windows Services and RESTART THESE SERVICES to "Running" in order for your Android Composite and/or other android drivers to install as expected.
(1) Device Install Service
(2) Device Setup Manager
(3) System Events Broker
Even after installing the android drivers and my system recognizing my Honor 5X and/or MT2-L03 the next time i tried to do routine browsing of Internal/SD Card in Windows 8.0 i found the Exclamation back under Device Manager and MTP/android device. Seems we have to SET THOSE SERVICES TO AUTOMATIC and make sure they are ALL RUNNING.
Now on the Windows 8.1 laptops i use they do stay put the first time after INSTALL so i'm just sharing this as a help in case you also run into this SILLY MICROSOFT issue only.
It's not YOU, it's not those android drivers for your DEVICE, and it's not your system, it's MICROSOFT's little quirky ordeal. I actually surfed for days for a solution to this issue and guess where i evetually found it at? In a Microsoft issue's forum. Duh.
Some replies to members who can't seem to get their drivers installed so they can use adb as intended or even to just BROWSE their Smartphone's Storage(s) was suggested to do a System Restore etc. which won't work anyway if those above SERVICES aren't running at the time you're doing a UPDATE DRIVER and even pointing to the exact DRIVER FOLDERS for your android/device.
Hope this helps a little for someone who had no idea why the heck they can't get their computer to recognize their device, update their appropriate android/MPT drivers etc.
emui is very laggy and Awful. just try cm13 and ur phone will be superb!

Anything else you might like to add about CM13 for Honor 5X?
You read a whole lot of favor over CM13 but some of us like to pick things apart too.
Especially the useful benefits!

Thank You HonorUSA_Eric.
Hopefully that helps OP's lag issue also but allow me to say it would been nice if Huawei could have stuffed a 4000mah Mate-type monster batter in Honor 5X too.
Wishful thinking i know but my MATE 2 gets unheard of battery life and after 2 years of ALWAYS ON usage too!
How about making a 5-6000maH battery while you guys are at it?
You have the USB OTG , and the gyroscope working (only emulation for this one, the 5X lacks the hardware) and FM radio sound can be sent via Bluetooth. They won't works on stock ROM (software limitation except for gyro).
Also, CM13 have much more configurations options, which is great, and the UI is better to my eyes.
Battery life is also really great.
But you should try yourself.
For CM13 do I need to upgrade my phone to Marshmellow? Thanks

The benchmark from Antutu is quite low for this rom, only around 120K. The cpu part is only 25K. I would expect the battery life will be improved.
Been giving this a try since yesterday. Early days yet, but battery life doesn't seem any better. About the same. One thing I have noticed is that the battery optimization settings that were accessed via the gear icon under app management in settings has been removed. Seems like Gmail sync still doesn't work properly ?
Dolby Atmos hidden settings removed too!
Location bug, same old Gmail sync problem, some unwanted software changes, a three-month old monthly security patch. Bit of a bust really. I still like my LeMax2 but the software side of things is getting really annoying - no upgrade, bugs & problems in stock eui, bugs and problems in modded eui, bugs and problems and non-working features in all custom ROMs

Truly feel your pain. Gmail notification issue is killing me. It was my first time to use gmail under stock rom yesterday. I unlocked every option I could find and it was still mute. Then I find the issue has been reported long time ago with all kinds of LeEco models.
Have you tried some modded EUI rom? Do they have gmail issue?

It's supposedly fixed on Small eui, but mine still seemed to come with delays when I tried it. Small eui is a good rom but with every new version one fixed issue seems to be replaced by a new different issue.
I am giving Lineage a try now. It's not perfect, but it is a joy to get those Gmails arriving promptly.

Lineage and ResurrectionRemix work fine for me. But I had LTE signal issue (could be just display problem) and camera is not as good as stock.
I hope LE could remove the google service completely and so we could flash gapps package. I manually installed Play store and gmail and other services. I think that caused the problem.

Even on the Indian eui with properly preinstalled google apps including gmail, think there is still the gmail problem. Something in eui.
Lineage works fine. Battery drains a bit too quickly, and as you said, the camera isn't as good as in stock eui, but it's not terrible. And on the plus side, it has the latest security patch, it's buttery smooth, gets monster benchmark scores, and has really quick fast charging. Going to give it a go until there's another new eui version to try, hopefully N based.

You have to go to Le store and search Google and install play store that way. Gapps will not work so will need to wipe and flash again.
I'm amazed by the lack of support for this device and the software support was one of the main reasons why I changed my phone from redmi note 2 to a newer one...
Everybody here seems to forget that this phone wasn't made for our countries.
When I bought this phone I was conscious about that, I can't understand all these complaints.

It was meant for USA and India. In India it has officially got play services and even with Indian rom Gmail does not sync correctly.

Actually it was only meant for China and India. You can't consider X829 a device for USA as it had never been launched there.
Hello everybody,
I own my Note 9s for a week now, and so far most things are fine.
But I've noticed a strange behaviour...the permissions I gave to my different apps are resetted randomly.
Means, sometimes when I start an app, it asks me again for give permission for using storage, for example.
Anyone an idea, why this would happen?
Have checked to turn off battery save mode for the apps, gave them all needed permissions, but the "reset" still happens randomly after 2,3 days...
Have the apps updated ? That could be the cause
No, have deactivated auto update on the playstore.
I guess it's a MIUI thing, or one of my apps has permission to change system settings and is doing stuff in the background.
Well, in 2 days I can unlock my device, then I will flash the Xiaomi EU ROM and then watch if it still happens...

Same happens to me, specially camera if you adb uninstall the stock gallery it ask to choose default gallery app once in a while.
I recommened using a different rom since miui 11 is full of bugs like that. The rom i'm using has fewer bugs then the current stock one but their not as annoying as resetting app prefrences.
Hey y'all! MIUI 12.5.1 OTA update is slowly rolling out for Poco X3 NFC Global users, but you can download it via Xiaomi directly and can manually install it.
Direct DL
WARNING: This is only for Global ROMs for the moment. Minimum version required is V12.0.1.0.RJGMIXM. If you have EU, IN, ID, RU, TR it won't work for you (especially IN aka karna).
Spoiler: How to install
Go to Settings
Click on About phone
Click on the top left gray box saying MIUI version
Tap on the 12 logo 7+ times to enable the manual updater
Click on the 3 dots on the top right
Click on Choose update package
Select the ROM you've downloaded
And we're done! That should start the installation process.

The update showed up on my notifs but was gone after I tapped it, thinking of going manual cause I can't wait. I'm coming from the buggy 12.0.1 A11, how's the overall performance and what about the memory management? Is it finally not as aggressive as before like what they promised with 12.5?
Is the split screen function back in this release?

No it doesn't, I just tested it myself and it only supports up to AAC like usual. LHDC is in developer mode sure but it doesn't activate.
Hows the ram management? Is it still as aggressive as before? The official rom can't sync my 10k contacts because of aggressive ram management and google contacts app.
I tried the xiaomi.eu version and the whole rom was extremely laggy on 12.5.1. I reverted back to 12.0.9. immediately. Is it the same for official rom? Is 12.5.1. laggy?
Lastly, does anyone know if it's safe to install the Indonesian official rom on my Global variant phone?

I'm currently using 12.5.1 Official Global ROM. And I think it's terrible. I can open multiple apps without having to worry one will close even if it's a heavy game. BUT! The normal background apps that worked fine before 12.5 were restarting like crazy. Even the game turbo overlay in games gets closed while in-game (Genshin Impact). Most of the time the refresh rate randomly goes down to 60 or 90 when scrolling which is laggy to our eyes. And my only access to floating window is through game turbo.
I recommend sticking with 12.0.9 for now.

Thanks. Makes matters much clearer. Faced the same issue when I went to Xiaomi.eu 12.5.1. for a while.
