I just got my redmi 3s and noticed that officially the MIUI 8 version is still a "develoer rom".
Does it works well? any performance or important battery life issues that makes it better to wait for a more polished rom for my 3s?
Thanks!
I tried it a few weeks ago - Could not get google services working so reverted to the 7.x stable build.
Downloading MIUI8 now though
it has some new features
if it's better or worse (i have 3 , not 3s) i don't know , but i don't have a reason to go back to 7 (i didn't notice any problem yet)
Not stable yet but it have great feature, maybe a little bit more drain on battery but with a 4100 mah, who cares??
Try it, myself i will not return to miui7
It is NOT Redmi 3S forum! PLEASE write in the right forum http://forum.xda-developers.com/t/xiaomi-redmi-3s
Hi, sorry if in wrong thread. I bought 3s prime for my son's Xmas present and wondering whether I will eventually receive an ota. Current miui version is Global 7.3 stable 7.3 .10.0.0 (MALCNDE ). I know some have 7.5 but mine says no updates available. Will I have to flash something different to enable ota or will I just receive it in good time ? Thanks
@timbohobbs You will need to flash official Global via MiFlash. Your version is modified by vendor.
Try global beta rom 6.9.1 (miui 8) with miflash beta and you will get ota
The dev update is going well, update every week and has a lot of features, current problem is blocked 4G LTE for some devices, but it could be done by root via TWRP
Today's China Developer Rom for Mi Max/Prime has brought Official Nougat for it. China Stable, Global Beta and Stable are expected by next week

I saw that once you upgrade to 7.0 (for example v7.2.9) that bootloader will be automatically locked, and we will have to unlock it once again.
Can anyone confirm if this is true,

Bootloader cannot be locked unless its instructed by you. Flashing process doesn't have any interference with the Bootloader. Still, about my personal experience, I migrate from custom roms to MIUI 7.1.12 and back atleast twice a week. Its not the case. And given the reason neither its supposed to be. You can clear your doubts.

Yes this is my understanding too, and i myself flash constantly -
but according to xiaomi.eu page for build 7.2.9 : " RELESED Android 7.0 for MI4C, Mi4S, MIMAX, MIMAX PRO, MINote PRO
Your BOOTLOADER will be relocked after upgrade to Android 7.0 so unlock it by en.miui.com/unlock after ROM installation again!!!"

No worries, I flashed today without knowing above and my bootloader still unlocked.
After flashing gapps I get lots error messages. Otherwise no big difference in miui.
Worked ok with supersu 2.79 and twrp 3.0.2

No way! I've been looking forward to properly implemented multiwindow since I first saw Android N. That's such a shame
yep, xiaomi took android 7.0 and transformed it to MIUI 8 based on 6.0 i was hoping at least for display resolution support from 7.0 but no, you still have to edit build.prop and distort apps and icons in default theme. i don't need 6.5" screen because of 1cm fonts

It's been always Like that on MIUI, the changes come with MIUI upgrades not Android upgrades.
Hi y'all!
I have had my Mi Max 2 for a while now and I did the MIUI 10 update. But I feel like battery and performance was better on MIUI 8/9. So idk if anyone has a link anymore but I want to downgrade from MIUI 10 to MIUI 9 or if I'm really lucky, MIUI 8... My phone is stock without any modifications on the latest MIUI 10 beta...

well
as far i know you need to first install TWRP on your phone, then you can use miui.eu rom for global miui 9 or 8, wipe your phone with twrp and then flash miui.eu rom
you can google miui.eu oxygen and search the link
greetings
As we all know xiaomi dropped support for redmi 3s and it is nowhere to be found on the released list of miui 11 update roadmap. So is it possible to port last stable rom to miui 11 from any similar spec'd officially supported device like redmi 4. If it is possible it will hold on to this device as its working solid till date otherwise I'll switch to new one. I know there are so many custom roms but I love miui and currently rocking mi rooms last update. Not really fan of miuipro or miui eu.
Yes a ported rom is coming

Where is that info, please?
I need just one not exactly perfect but close to perfect ported ram on oreo or pie. All current roms have no stock reading mode, theme store and so many performance issues and random reboots.
