na stock theme I dey use since... Guess I'll just restore factory settings, I planned to do that if MIUI12 lands but those clowns are slow with their updates

What you have there in the screenshot is not stock theme. Talking about status bar icons (network and battery bar).

Do a touch panel test to see if your touch panel don't have issues.

If it doesn't, best bet is to factory reset as suggested above.

still persists

And... I'm back so soon.

So i have the eu rom for mi 9 which i got from sourceforge.

I've seen a couple of tutorials about how to flash it but I'm hoping to learn from the dozens of personal experiences here so i don't walk into a pit.

Is it as simple as charging the device to 80%, booting to recovery, wiping the device, flashing the rom plus cahe wiping and sipping a cup of tea.

Will the zip file not already be removed when i wipe the device before flashing?

Good day sir ma

Go ahead. No fear. Just have a back up of your important things to a flash drive or Gdrive. Copy d zip file to a flash drive or to your laptop
Boot to recovery
Format data (d one with yes to format) .
Wipe data davlick vendor system cache
Copy the EU ROM zip file to your phone internal memory
Flash d ROM, magisk if u want to root
Boot to system
Boooommmmmm.

You first do a data format (the one with yes)

Reboot to recovery after that, then you do the wipes in the screenshot above. And flash the ROM.

Welcome sir. I'm filling up my lesson notes again

Okay. I guess i have everything i need now. See u on the other side. Or maybe I'll be asking for how to unbrick

olayinkajnr:

And... Ofcos something went wrong.

I completed the flash but it's not booting to system. Just returns to orangefox.

I wanted to try to use miflash to reinstall miui but someone said something about that making things worse since it's a custom recovery

Did you format data? The one where you have to type YES.

abdsamad:

And did you tick all the boxes busuyi44 said to tick?

Shegun010:


And did you tick all the boxes busuyi44 said to tick?

Good news!
I tried it again and it worked.

Bad news: the thing is already telling me that battery something stopped working. Probably something I did but I'll wait and see about that one.

Thanks for the all the help.

I'll be disturbing you soon

Where do you always see these people that gives false information like this?

What was the error you got when it completed the flash?

I've been scouring the Internet ni o.

I didn't actually get an error. The thing just didn't boot into system. I figured out what the problem was during my second attempt: i didn't let it boot all the way to the system after data format. It was taking too long so i thought it was stuck so i interrupted it.
i just allowed it to boot all the way the second time, went back to recovery, wiped the data and co, tried to Reboot to system but that one was really stuck so i just Rebooted to recovery and flashed.

It went smoothly, like a baby's bottom and i gave myself a pat on the back

Apps uninstalling doesn't have a special method. All android devices have a place where you can uninstall apps with her by going to the app list on settings or holding the icon on the home screen or launcher

Thanks, seen it

If you use mido, tryout this rom, it's a beast for pubg. Getting 45 - 55 steady fps.

I know how but I'll never advice you. You'll hate your phone believe me. Just be patient for devs to port stable roms for you.

As an addendum, you can completely damage your device while trying to repair system partition.

Corvus is termed gaming ROM but there's nothing like gaming ROM.

What you enjoy on Corvus for PUBG is all based on the kernel.

Nice ROM btw.

ah omo... but I learnt that Havoc OS is stable for the device

No GSI ROM is stable. Forget what those Indians say in those group. No GSI ROM is stable because it's never made for a particular device.
