Hi all, anyone here flash official MM to their device yet? I'm wondering about user experience. I read a thread on reddit and the top comment has me worried.
I'll copy and paste the comment here:
I'm on the beta and apart from the better app switch window, you're literally missing out on nothing. MM + EMUI 4 is glitchy and slow a lot of the time. It's a pity, really.

Hello, I am a beta tester for Honor 5x Android 6.0+EMUI 4.0 for L22 (India) variant. It has been around 2 months I am using the beta versions (with different updates with bug fixes), and current versions seems stable. Although there has been a problem of excessive RAM consumption, the phone is pretty stable. We have raised bug for this and Honor dev team is working on the fix. Don't worry, we have rejected 3 requests from Honor in their beta survey to make sure buggy software is not released to the public.
The user experience is better than Android 5.1 + EMUI 3. The UI is improved and smoother than previous version. We have raised requests for new features like OTG support and more camera functions, and hoping that we will get all of those sooner. Keep in mind that by comparing EMUI 4.0 to stock Android will disappoint you as no customized UI matches stock one in the performance aspect.
I am happy with the current release as it is much more stable that earlier ones and still waiting for another update with rest of the bug fixes and requirements incorporated.
If you like stock, you may move to CM13 and other ROMs. Personally I did not try CM yet as there is not fingerprint support. Yes in just 4 months, I am damn addicted to fingerprint and I don't want to try a ROM without FP support. CM developers are damn good and they are working on the FP issue and we will have the resolution sooner.
Finally, whether to go with beta release, or wait for it to release to public or going for CM or CM based ROMs remains your choice. I enrolled to beta testing so that my fellow friends using Honor 5X will have a bug free stable stock software. I might move to CM when the beta testing is over

Same as what you'd say, Release is consuming a lot of RAM, Battery as well Data Comsumption Monitor is having two stages which is makin me taking two step enrollment to save data.
There i found a Bug/Error but unable to report with the team Dev where on Professional camera - No sooner when i ue Flash Light/Torch and immediately open Pro Camera to capture moments it says Close Torch App - Unable to Open Camera App.
currently running marshmallow (RC VERSION) on L22.
there are a lot of changes
1.the notification icons are now colored
2.recent apps are better now
3.audio output via 3.5mm jack has improved.
3.view modes is introduced(similar to dpi changing)
4.incoming call ui is full screen.
5.revamped settings,phone,messaging(white color with dark notification icons)
and all other marshmallow goodies like permission manger,detailed app info etc
on the bad side...
ui buggy and consumes hell lot of ram.
and lags while mutitasking.
hope all this gets improved in the stable release

Looks like EMUI, along with the bug causing excessive RAM consumption.
But with latest build, apps are loading quite faster than earlier, I am not sure which one did you try.

Hi.
Is there any Stable Oreo ROM for Mi6?
What guys will you recommend?
I'm full of MIUI and want to start journey with some alternative ROM
Stable and Android 8? Nop.
So far the stable ROMs are based on Android 7.1.2 and even in those, you are going to lose some performance and camera functions even if you activate the camera2 api. What do you dislike about Miui??

Battery timing on Miui is way better than non miui roms. You will need custom kernels and some modifications to ensure good battery life.

That's funny because battery performance is one of the best things that MIUI has in comparison to other android layers/ROMs
And I dislike MIUI aswell, but I stay with it since it offers the most battery life and camera quality of all ROMs
I won't agree with that I owned Mi5 before and after I install AEX - battery performance highly changed on + compare to MIUI. This is why I'm looking for some stable alternative ROM for Mi6

I would agree. Battery on MIUI isn't actually any better than other ROMs. They are all roughly the same or longer on custom ROMs because they don't have so much bloat running.
However you can extend MIUI battery and performance by disabling MIUI enhancements. Task killers are no longer necessary on android.
Enable developer settings and set memory optimisations to off and disable the MIUI optimisations.
Then it will use the normal android management which is much better for battery and multi tasking.
MIUI is still using task killers based on saving battery on old android versions. Nougat and Oreo definitely don't need this

The battery life on custom room is about the same., Even when using popkern. You may find another issues on the custom ROMs.
But if you want a custom rom, my advice would be trying first Aicp 12.1 it's stable and unless you game won't notice the performance drop.
Los 15.1 is way too buggy to be used as a daily
I am using Atomic OS. The battery life is great, it is fast, it is 8.1 and overall a great ROM. Things that are still not perfect: Bluetooth calls don't work (but will be fixed) and sometimes a micro lag while typing.

Someone was complaining there was no notification sounds etc but I think that would get more widely reported...
Seems like there's no reason not to use it atm

Notification sounds are working perfectly normally, only thing I've noticed is that it stutters at times, and very rarely hangs for a couple seconds.
Only other thing is that dark UI renders some text unreadable, but this is mostly a non issue, as it affects very few areas.
They might be messing something up during installation.

Sorry for out of topic guys.
Do u think is worth to buy this phone compared to oneplus 5, cause mi 6 is a lot cheaper.
But I wonder why there is only a few custom roms here?
since this phone is xiaomi flagship.
Honesty I don't like miui, I preferred aosp. Do you think the development on this phone will grow anytime soon?
Or should I just wait for Mi 7? What do u think guys

From what I'm reading:
OnePlus 5 < Mi 6 < OP 5T
If you have the money get the 5T as its more recent.
It also looks more aesthetically pleasing as it has the newer long curved screen.
If not then get the Mi 6.
You can unlock and be using a custom ROM pretty fast just apply for unlocking when you get the phone (but test the phone for some time before you unlock in case you need warranty).
MIUI is actually very pleasant and I enjoy using it. I just prefer custom ROMs because AOSP is less iOS orientated.
If you can wait or you have a decent phone now then just wait because 845 devices are coming so you can get one of those or at least they will blow the price of the current devices way down. Next year we will see them.
Everyone is complain complain complain about Mi 6 ROMs and they should honestly be buying OP phones for more money because that's where the extra money goes - the marketing to developers.
Coming from Sony though I'm over the moon. My phone doesn't bend in my pocket.
My phone doesn't have dead pixels. My phone doesn't come back from the repair center even more bent (yes that's a thing with Sony).
My phone doesn't have incredibly crippling DRM restrictions after unlocking the bootloader so my camera doesn't kill itself after rooting.
And now I can actually have the latest versions of android from the OEM or faster from the talented devs here.
So compared to other OEMs Xiaomi is the f*ucking dream especially considering the price of the phone.
I'm gonna buy another one in a few years and if its as good as the Mi 6 they'll have a loyal customer for life.
The only exception would be if OP releases something better for equal or less money but I doubt they can pull it off.
My only complaint with Xiaomi might be that they use Foxconn as a manufacturer and they don't have the best track record with working conditions since their work for Apple, but I think for any OEM to be competitive they are all sliding down that slope.
Universally better working conditions for electronics manufacture would be nice, but we are a ways off from that.
Hey guys,
how is it possible that a SD 636 is faster than a 660 with Android One?
In this article you have different videos that show different Speed Test, and in the last ones, the Note 5 beats the Mi A2:
https://newesc.com/test-velocidad-xiaomi-a2-vs-xiaomi-redmi-note-5/
he-s comparing apples and pears.
whyred has been out for months now, plenty of time for miui for it to get optimizations and improvements (it's also probably the main redmi device that they work on miui10, complete with the new ai engine loading algorithms that learn your usage patters to speed up your phone).
and even without that, any sort of miui vs android one comparisons are irrelevant if you ask me... nobody ever said miui is slow, some just prefer a clean android instead.

Every company should launch the best optimized product they can, because the first month is the most important in sells. If you launch a new product that cost more but is not faster than an older one, you are gonna lose customers. Easy.
Beside, the argument i hear a lot of: "With time is gonna be faster", is complete nonsense for new customers. I don't want warranties on the future, if I'm buying something NOW, I want it to be the best NOW.
"nobody ever said miui is slow" that's true, but you can see a lot of youtubers saying that they prefer Android one because is "faster" and "more optimized"

i don't think i agree with you that the first month is the most important for sales. and we need to work a bit on the definition of faster. starting apps isn't necessarily the benchmark to use. try running miui for a few weeks, switch to a custom/stable aosp of sorts for another 2 weeks and come back to miui. then decide if a phone is slower or faster on android one versus miui. some people like miui others like android. it's always a matter of preference. i personally couldn't use miui any more after the first time i switched os versions like this. it just felt wrong.
L.E. the storage speed difference could also be down to encryption being on or off on the 2 terminals. or due to the A/B system of the mi a2. there could be services running on the jasmine that the whyred is not running at the moment. it can be that miui is really better optimized to start apps. if your definition of faster is that then get yourself a whyred. it's your choice to make! always remember that!
L.E.2 "I want it to be the best NOW." you know these are all budget-y phones we're talking about, right?

well miui is device dependent (no plans to make a gsi style image that runs on any treble phone. if xiaomi decided to make one it would be pretty awesome though!) so you can;t run the whyred miui on jasmine. you could maybe port the one from wayne (mi 6x) without too many issues, in fact i think i saw a thread on en.miui.com.
gsi images might work on both yes since they're both shipping with 8.1 (but there's not really needed on jasmine, it's already "clean" android).
but yes, if you want a fair comparison, a gsi running on both might be a better test.

indeed, sorry, what I mean is the wayne / mi 6x image, same device with miui
There is bunch of tests on youtube comparing note 5 pro and mi A2, and you can see that in many A2 is clean winner.
So, I believe that this tests depends heavily on tester and apps which they choose to use in the tests.

Not sure what all the fuss is here. This is a budget phone which is plenty fast and has great features for the price. If you want speed and fastest phone you will have to pay at least twice as much. I am coming from an SD835 phone and I hardly noticeable the difference at all.
As the old saying goes, you get what you pay for.

It is possible to tweak android to load faster apps, you can find on youtube test between S9+ and P20pro.
S9+ has about 240000 antutu score, while P20pro has about 200000.
P20pro beats S9+ in all standard apps and games, because android learned what apps user use the most, and cache them somehow, leaving S9+ in the dust, in real time usage.
It dosen't mean that it is really faster, but it is tweaked with smarter OS.
In "our" case, note 5 pro vs mi a2, of course, it is nonsense, mi a2 is faster, but miui also can be tweaked.
Also, custom roms are usually also tweaked and are faster then stock ones.

from my experience with the Redmi 4X MIUI is anyway pretty fast compared to Android One on my Mi A1, but rather lousy in regard of doing great shots.
there's other vantages of AOSP-based ROMs like RR, lineage, etc. Now my choice was the Mi A2 only due to the unlock process, improved cam, QC4.0 and CPU.
camera and microphone are definitely an improvement:

I don't see why it wouldn't. Xiaomi's snapdragon models seem to always have development since it's easy to unlock the bootloader. For development to thrive though, we have to wait till the kernel sources are released, which is about 2 months after release on average.

Just got the phone, definitely feels slower than it needs to be based on the specs. I am really hoping we see a custom recovery and ROMs soon to see this phone fly. I was checking and the X3 NFC got those 2 relatively quickly post release.

I disagree with your assertion. Even Redmi note 5 pro from three years ago, performs very well without lag on AOSP ROMs. And we all know that SD 662 on the POCO M3 is faster and better than SD 636 on RN5 Pro. So i believe that POCO M3 will perform greatly on AOSP based ROMs.

The miui roms of that time were loaded with bloadware and not very optimized, so any "clean" rom made an appreciable difference in performance.
Today it is not like that, the current miui roms are quite clean and highly optimized (and can be easily cleaned of the bloadware they carry).
There is not much difference apart from the security issues with the other cleaner android roms.

I have a Redmi Note 7, with the SD660, that phone runs much much much faster, even with slower memory. The Poco M3 can go faster.

Can you link me to some guide as to how to remove that Junk and stop/uninstall apps? This reviewer seems to think you cannot and maybe you could help him too!
You will find all in any of the Miui forum, even in Xda.
hello sir, I'm from future and now Poco m3 have many custom rom
I've tested lots of phones and done a variety of tweaks and the OnePlus 8 Pro running Android 10 is still the smoothest experience I've had with any Android device. Having tried Android 11, I experienced random stutters and lag, so I downgraded back. It's almost a placebo effect with Android 11 on both OnePlus and Samsung devices where they seem faster at first, but get choked up when running multiple tasks or even doing basic tasks. This is possibly poor memory management? I've compared the OnePlus 8 Pro to the Note 20 Ultra (which is blazing fast) and still it manages to run smoother.
I know with many enthusiasts, being on the absolute latest Android update is a badge of honor, but when the newer software is more weighted down with overlays, it's not always a better experience. OxygenOS 10 was a perfect balance of a clean AOSP build with useful customizations. For those that are curious, it is possible to uninstall the Software Update feature to remain on the last Android 10 build.

Does that include custom ROMS? I run AICP which is Android 11 and it runs super smooth with great battery saving capabilities.
Have you tried Evo X?
There's nothing I've tried in my life this smooth..
Bar none..
PS: battery was better on 10 I'll give you that mate
I've not tried a custom ROM as they don't work well with Verizon.

Make a thread pal.
I went back to OOS10 through msm tools, and I now understand why people hate oos11 so much. 10 is better in many ways; battery life, dark mode, smoother... I will be remaining here until oos12 is released.

I always stuck with stock and still do.
Lower you peak CPU speed on each cluster and your minimum on the small cluster to 300.
Then disable zRAM, thats a massive performance boost, just be sure to close apps after as you'll max out your RAM if you're not careful
Android 11 also disables Overscan, so 10 is your limit if you're using it to hide the curved portions of the display.
