Latest & Greatest, Multilang Dev MIUI v7 ROM - v5.10.16 by Xiaomi.eu [With GApps!]

Latest & Greatest, Multilang Dev MIUI v7 ROM - v5.10.16 by Xiaomi.eu [With GApps!]
Edited October 16th: New ROM is out today.... http://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/5-10-15-16.28809/
For those wondering what the difference between ROM options for XRN2 (Hermes):
Chinese Developer: Only Chinese and English, no PlayStore, Official, Chinese Servers Download
Global Developer: Multilanguage, PlayStore, Official, only for some devices, Chinese Servers Download
Xiaomi.eu: Multilanguage, PlayStore, Based on Official ROM, European Servers Download (but also American)
Edited October 9: New Rom v5.10.8 is out: http://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/5-10-8.28692/
I have also just discovered that since Sept 20th, some cool software called WinDroid Universal Android Toolkit v2.5 now supports the Redmi Note 2: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2499926
WinDroid Universal Android Toolkit takes many ADB and Fastboot commands and puts them into an easy to use toolkit that supports a ton of Android devices. It's goal is to simplify the process of unlocking a device's bootloader, flashing a custom recovery and gaining root for the newbies of the Android world.
This should make it easier for those not so familiar with Android!
Edited 25th Sept: The latest weekly just dropped v5.9.24 which you can get from here: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347822062
ROM thread: http://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/5-9-24.28459/
For the new contestants to the show, this is the best ROM available for this device because it has no Chinese language at all, no bloatware apps and should have Google Apps baked in.
It is a chinese holiday for the whole first week of October so there won't be another ROM for a couple of weeks.
My updater app doesn't show any new versions, because it is unofficial I guess and doesn't work with the updater app.
I am still on v5.9.9 so I guess I will be wiping cache and dalvik cache and trying to do a "dirty flash" and crossing my fingers that it doesn't wipe my data.
Edited 19th Sept: There is now a new version v5.9.18 available here, thanks to the xiaomi.eu forum: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347818342
This fixes a critical bug in v5.9.17. However, one user on the xiaomi.eu forum has reported a wifi issue with v5.9.18, however this version is so new, and one user is not a big sample size.
http://xiaomi.eu/community/forums/miui-weekly-rom-releases.103/
However, I am not 100% sure that this isn't just the China DEV ROM. I am also unsure if this one has Google Apps baked in or you have to add it afterwards via TWRP.
I am still running 5.9.9 which is working great 99% of the time for me, however and I have a bug in which many programs that stream live video, after the video starts, 20 seconds into the steam the audio stops but the video keeps going. Can someone who installs the latest v5.9.18 please test and see if they have a problem with Livestation app, Al-Jazeera app, or NHK world app. Thanks!
This is the changelog for v5.9.17 which is the latest I could find. It is for the China ROM not multilanguage but I assume the bug fixes are the same.

10th September - v5.9.9
OK Boys and girls, if you have this device, have TWRP installed, then backup all your data and install this new ROM, it is awesome.
When I first got my device, it was chinese keyboard, no Google Apps and even after updating to MIUI v7, I still had issues with contacts not syncing.
I downloaded and installed this ROM which just came out today or yesterday: (I uploaded the file, hosted in my google drive as it disappeared from Android File Host): http://gdurl.com/Ww2J/download
I went into TWRP, wiped data, cache and dalvik cache to start from scratch.
After rebooting, I find this multi-language ROM is great, no chinese keyboard and it asked me for my google account details. The contact that would not sync to my phone is in there straight away.
Under settings -> Accounts -> All -> Google -> Contacts is slow to sync and most of the time just says "syncing now" but I did see it also say it was successful, "last sync 9/10/2015"
There is no Chinese bloatware at all, no chinese ANYWHERE which is good because on the China Dev ROM from last week, the Theme store was all chinese. Now my theme store is in English
Because I am signed up to a Mi Account, it actually restored an SMS I had just sent before I wiped my device, also very nice. Unfortunately still no easy backup for Whatsapp and Viber I assume.
Incidentally, even with an X10 processor and wifi, telling your phone to install 76 apps at the same time still takes a while.....
Again, incidentally, it tells you when you install Aptoide that it contains a virus and even gives it a name, something.expense.aptoide which is probably the payment gateway but anyway, in the older China Dev ROM, this didn't happen, and but it would see Aptoide as a security threat when you did a manual scan of your device, with a "fix" button that doesn't actually tell you what it is fixing so I had to install Aptoide again after I pressed it. Anyway, now I actually like this feature, I mean besides Aptoide, if I install something that might have a virus, MIUI will warn me before I even install it, nice.

Has it improved battery life at all?

What makes you think I can tell if battery life has improved on a ROM I installed 15 minutes ago?

Thanks for this , could you please post a link to the TWRP you used ( and if possible instructions to install it ) ? I'm sure this can be found online but I'd rather have one that worked and which I know is in English.

Is there anywhere to download TWRP and the stock recovery other than en.miui.com? I don't have a Mi Account yet and I don't want to create one at the moment.

Sup guys,
So if I understand it correctly the stable version for Redmi Note 2 is MIUI 6.7.5. and if you're prepared to go a bit more beta MIUI 7.9.10/11 is also an option, right?
If I would install the multi-version from Xiaomi.eu (7.9.10) would I be able to install updates from the ROM itself, like OTA? Or do I need do manually download and use recovery every time?

The correct stable version is MIUI 6, which came on the device. The beta is MIUI 7, chinese edition, on the official site. The version number for these start with v5.x.x
This thread is regards to the un-official multi-language ROMs which are floating around now. This one is v5.9.9. There is a v5.9.11 around, however the changelog just says something about supporting a tiny change to xiaomi headphones.
I just used updater to check and it said no new updates, it just says I am running v5.9.9, and that it is a weekly development cycle. I think since the updater fully recognizes this is a MIUI ROM, the OTA would work, however I am fearful the OTA might switch it back to Chinese, so I intend to stay on this ROM until they release an official Multi-language version. I don't know if TWRP did anything to prevent OTA, however I made sure that I didn't modify the setting when TWRP was telling me that it could affect OTA updates if i enable a certain setting.
It is confusing because the file name is telling you it is running ON Android 5.0, using v7 of MIUI, and the codename of the device is Hermes, and the ROM version is 5.9.9

....

I'm going to flash this beta ROM because I want to have MIUI V7 so my question is whether this beta ROM is stable enough since the phone is going to be a present and I don't want it crashing all over the place.
Thanks.

Smooth your 5.1.1 TW experience !!

So as you know our S5 mini isnt loved by devs and no custom roms are available for it
so how about we mod the stock rom by our selfs !!!
@xXx made a script for his Galaxy S5 that will clean your rom the way you like it and fortunately its working on the S5 mini as well
so i will copy his thread nothing more i asked him to do so and he said its ok
so lets get started
URWsoft BareBone Cleaner
Features & Benefits
Free Rom choice:*Choose any Samsung Touchwiz Lollipop Rom and cleans it down to a core level. This way you can choose a Rom which fits your personal liking and requirements and clean it down to your comfort level.Reduced to the Max:*Reduce Rom A full blown Samsung Rom comes with about 300 apps which can be brought down to about 75 core appsFaster Rom:*After a full clean you will have about 1.1 GB free RAM available which is about 300-400 MB more compared to a full blown Samsung Rom. This increase the performance.Individual Cleaning Definitions:*The BareBone Cleaner provides you with plenty of options to customize the cleaning process and make sure you prevent apps you want to keep from cleaning.Compatible:*Several user feedbacks confirm that the BareBone Cleaner works with odexed and deodexed as well as Samsung based Lollipop and KitKat roms on all kind of S5 variants.Saved Profilesnes you have defined your individual profile it will be saved as an editable text file on your SDcard (URWsoft folder) and next time you flash a Rom you can run this profile with the exact same settings with no additional effort.You will have predefined profiles for one click cleaning available. One save Default Profile and an Extrem BareBone Cleaning Profile.You can reset your profile to default setting anytime and start to define a new profile.You have a Bypass option available which will keep you defined profile and just present you with a complete unselected profile. This will help you to just select one or more apps for addition cleaning or select one of the Install optionsMulti Window Operation:*On the first customization window you can select which further menus you want to enable. Only these windows will be presented.Alternative Apps and Tweaks:*You might want to get rid of the S5 stock keyboard, or the TouchWiz Launcher. As an alternative you can select the S6 keyboard or Nova Launcher etc. from the Install Apps menu and be able to remove the stock apps without being left with an unusable rom.Rom Specifics Menu:*Most of the rom chefs implement different kind of apps to their roms which are additional to the Samsung standard Rom content. In order to give you the opportunity to get rid of specific unwanted apps which I started this new section. This will grow on the go and you tell me what you would like to see here as additional cleaning options.Users Selection Menu:*Some users requested me to clean even more content which I either didn’t test sufficiently yet or might remove rom functionality which is required for a seamless rom operation. These requests can be found in the Users Menu. If you tested these selections please let us know your experience is with it. If everything works fine for daily use these cleanings could be easily shifted into the standard cleaning options.Additional Features:*The BareBone Cleaner will further grow on the go and you tell me what you would like to see here as additional cleaning options. The profiles will help already to combine a feature rich utility with ease of use and fast track profile executions.
URWsoft BareBone Cleaner Project
I’m not a developer but I’m flashing ROMs since quite some years and today I’m experienced enough for this project.
The BareBone Cleaner is an Aroma Installer based tool which will debloat your TouchWiz Lollipop rom up to a core minimum in order to increase available ram and get rid of performance wasting apps and services which are not mandatory.
So get rid of all the Samsung crap, bloatware, the annoying “check cover” warning or other apps which you could easily add again to your personal liking from the Google Playstore.
I’m sure many of you was looking for this kind of solution in order to choose any rom fitting your personal liking.
Background of this Project
The original kick-off for this project was a longer temporary absence of*Edgarf28*who provides us with his awesome*XtreStoLite*rom. I used his rom since the very first day on my S5 and even I tried tons of other roms, for some reasons I always returned to XtreStoLite.
Therefore I started to develop the BareBone Cleaner to be able to choose any TouchWiz Lollipop rom and clean it down to the same level as Edgar is doing with his rom. Short after I decided to share my BareBone Cleaner in this thread Edgar returned and provided an updated rom version.
As I enjoy this project and got several motivating feedbacks from users who would like to clean the rom of their choice, I decided to continue the development of my BareBone Cleaner and bring it to the next level by porting the cleaner logic to a user friendly Aroma Installer. Now users can individually choose what they would like to clean and I will step by step add more options now.
The most important factors for me, beside the combination of performance and battery life is the fact the I’m able to run the original TouchWiz rom but maximum debloated to a core minimum in order to increase available ram and get rid of performance wasting apps and services which are not mandatory.
So what happens if you use my script?
The script deletes all kind of apps from your installed rom based on your selections down to a core level what is required for a stable operation. From that level you can add any desired app from the Google Playstore to satisfy your personal requirements and style.
Important notes
The BareBone Cleaner is designed to clean TouchWiz Lollipop 5.0.x roms running on the S5 G900F which are either odexed or deodexed.
Currently I’m not planning to support other rom types. I’m happy to get your feedback if you tried it successfully on other roms as well so other users can benefit from that information as well.
Best use is running the BareBone Cleaner from recovery right after flashing a new rom but you can also make use of it if you want to clean your existing installation. In this case you might experience that apps like Google maps, Youtube etc. will be gone. In this case just load them again from Google Playstore.*
! Flash this Script at your own Risk !
!! - I don't take any responsibility for any Damage - !!
Create a Nandroid-Backup before flashing the script!

yup i used it on my s5 mini and ive removed 83 Samsung system apps
the device is very fast now and smooth
as for installation download the ZIP and flash it via recovery
it will open a window with an aroma installer
follow the instructions that will show
and just in case make a backup for your current rom so you can restore it if you removed something you need

So I can flash any S5 ROM on my S5 Mini (g800f) ? And then I have to flash this Mod, and ROM should work, right ?

Can you post a comment in his thread of twrp with the problem so he will see it just in case he didnt noticed your message

I think the problem is related to hardware overlays and not handled correctly for this build. There is a workaround in the r4 build of the same TWRP source rev. for the Moto X Play. Aroma hangs when the zip has loaded and the splash screen should be displayed on top of the TWRP interface. It just hangs and all you can do is reboot. Just run this installer from the latest TWRP. It won't change anything until after you have made all these choices. So it should be safe to try.

URWsoft BareBone Cleaner Project
I’m not a developer but I’m flashing ROMs since quite some years and today I’m experienced enough for this project.
The BareBone Cleaner is an Aroma Installer based tool which will debloat your TouchWiz Lollipop rom up to a core minimum in order to increase available ram and get rid of performance wasting apps and services which are not mandatory.
So get rid of all the Samsung crap, bloatware, the annoying “check cover” warning or other apps which you could easily add again to your personal liking from the Google Playstore.
I’m sure many of you was looking for this kind of solution in order to choose any rom fitting your personal liking.
Background of this Project
The original kick-off for this project was a longer temporary absence of*Edgarf28*who provides us with his awesome*XtreStoLite*rom. I used his rom since the very first day on my S5 and even I tried tons of other roms, for some reasons I always returned to XtreStoLite.
Therefore I started to develop the BareBone Cleaner to be able to choose any TouchWiz Lollipop rom and clean it down to the same level as Edgar is doing with his rom. Short after I decided to share my BareBone Cleaner in this thread Edgar returned and provided an updated rom version.
As I enjoy this project and got several motivating feedbacks from users who would like to clean the rom of their choice, I decided to continue the development of my BareBone Cleaner and bring it to the next level by porting the cleaner logic to a user friendly Aroma Installer. Now users can individually choose what they would like to clean and I will step by step add more options now.
The most important factors for me, beside the combination of performance and battery life is the fact the I’m able to run the original TouchWiz rom but maximum debloated to a core minimum in order to increase available ram and get rid of performance wasting apps and services which are not mandatory.
So what happens if you use my script?
The script deletes all kind of apps from your installed rom based on your selections down to a core level what is required for a stable operation. From that level you can add any desired app from the Google Playstore to satisfy your personal requirements and style.
Important notes
The BareBone Cleaner is designed to clean TouchWiz Lollipop 5.0.x roms running on the S5 G900F which are either odexed or deodexed.
Currently I’m not planning to support other rom types. I’m happy to get your feedback if you tried it successfully on other roms as well so other users can benefit from that information as well.
Best use is running the BareBone Cleaner from recovery right after flashing a new rom but you can also make use of it if you want to clean your existing installation. In this case you might experience that apps like Google maps, Youtube etc. will be gone. In this case just load them again from Google Playstore.*
! Flash this Script at your own Risk !
!! - I don't take any responsibility for any Damage - !!
Create a Nandroid-Backup before flashing the script!

How to report a bug/Ask for a change​
Over the small amount of time I've been doing my edits and shared them with the community, I've noticed something that seems to irritate me. I can't speak for all the developers on this forum, but I do edits/ROMs/PORTs/etc... to what I like. I don't work for anybody else but me. I share my work because it may have something of value to other people and/or some people may share the same taste as me on regards to what they want on a ROM.
That being said, that doesn't mean I will completely ignore what the community has to say.
First and foremost, it must be said, I am merely a beginner. I do not claim to be a professional developer that knows how to add everything, I am nowhere close and I learn as I go.
There are ways to ask for something and/or report a bug when it comes to ROMs, and this post is my attempt to try to explain how to (and how not to) report a bug in order to help me out as much as possible to try to fix something
You can also ask for something to be added, but there are also ways to ask for something
So, here we go
Keep in mind:
I do not add stuff that can easily be downloaded from the Playstore
I, myself, don't do kernel edits
I COULD remove stuff if NOBODY uses it
---REPORTING BUGS---​
How NOT to report a bug:
"SystemUI (or any app)is crashing, please help!"
"Instagram doesn't allow me to edit my post, what could be wrong?"
"My bank account app is not letting me do such thing"
These posts are sort of pointless as they only state something but I have no context on what could be causing it. Also, I can't really control (for the most part) third-party apps, so if you're going to ask about them this way, don't even bother
A slightly better way to report a bug:
"I clean installed the ROM and was working fine, after I installed Facebook and logged in, I immediately uploaded a photo and SystemUI started to crash. Can you look in to it?"
"I tried to install Black Neon theme (a link to it would work as well) and it was working fine until I tried to activate AOD (or anything else for some reason) and SystemUI (or any other app) is crashing, could you look in to it?"
"My bank account app doesn't let me take a screenshot of my accounts. I get a toast notification saying "Can't take screenshot due to security policy"
As you can see, this provides a bit more context and explanation on your current situation. This gives me a little more detail on trying to replicate the problem and hopefully could fix it by replicating it. Well, except for point #3 which is out of my hands for the most part (I think). If you include what kernel you're using would make everything better! Also any significant change that would require root (like xposed and or anything that modifies /system also needs to be informed for better results)
The BEST way to report a bug:
LOGCAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Please learn the ins and outs of a logcat, this really helps a lot on finding what the problem is. Also, please give a brief explanation as the above examples when providing a log cat
---ASKING FOR STUFF TO BE ADDED---​
How NOT to ask for stuff:
On your next update, add iris scanner
You should add (app) on your next update
Hey, please add (app or feature) on your next update
No, I do not work for you. Even if you say please like the third example, that doesn't mean you're being polite. It still sounds like an order lol so you should probably rephrase your request.
How to ask for stuff to be added to my work:
Would you be so kind to add (feature) to your ROM, if possible?
Would it be possible to add this app to your ROM?
Please, can you add (feature) to your ROM, if it isn't much to ask?
See how politeness makes everything better? You're not demanding it, you're just politely asking to see if maybe it is within my grasp to add something. And if all request would be like this, I can assure you I'd try my best to add said feature
I hope this is useful to you or I at least hope that some people read it.
If not, I can just tell you to return to stock ROM, probably better than any ROM I put out anyway

-reserved2-

-one more-

My opinion
The best rom for j2 prime i recommended for all j2 prime users
A lot of thanks for all the developers?

Here we go.Keep it up.I hope you can shade faith on J2 Series and do something great in future.Good luck and again never give up.

Gonna try this one mate.
Gracias hermano!

How much space is left on data partition? currently i'm on stock G532MUMU1AQH1 Panama ROM and i can get 3.2GB free on data partition after factory reset and uninstalling pre-installed games.

2.3 GB after fresh install.
But I've heard that some users have used an app (that I am not allowed to mention in XDA) to re-odex the ROM and get an additional 1 GB of storage.
Should be plenty of information going around
