Hi guys, i have just jumped into the Xiaomi band wagon. I now own Mi Max2 (akin to a small flat screen smart TV). I am on global MIUI, but i see u guys saying eu rom is cleaner better battery wise, how do i know if i have the EU rom and how can i get it. I have also requested to unlock the bootloader which i heard takes 72hours, after that what is the best way to root and install twrp.

I have rooted and modded every android i have own, even when Nokia was on Symbian os, but this seems to be different; i havevto wait 72hrs. All my HTC's didnt take 30minutes to unlock, root and install Resurrection Remix!!

You heard it takes 72 hours or you attempted to unlock and it told you to wait 72hrs?

so this means the phone must b rooted to use this feature?
pardon my ignorance pls I'm not a tech geek

It's not a feature. It's a zip file that must be flashed to make some gcams work

I have opted for the unlock code through developer options and i have done some research prior to that before i brick my phone. Everywhere its said 72hrs else it will not unlock!

Oga Grand. I have downloaded some Gcam online some worked and others didn't. Can Gcam be flashed just like viper4andriod. Most of the Gcam I downloaded, I installed directly. The video and slow motion forecloses. Some just show blank screen.

Happy Sunday people. I finally installed AEX ROM on my 5 plus and so far I'm enjoying it, but I have two complaints.
1. The navigation bar is still Oreo style, any way to get the new pie nav bar?
2. There is no option to change color temperature. I'm used to the "cool" option in miui, and without it, the display looks kinda washed out and whites look yellowish. This is a big deal breaker for me and without finding a fix, I'll just have to go back to miui.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks

Unfortunately there is no "fix". MIUI is different from AOSP in any possible way you can imagine. You CAN'T have everything in one rom, which is why there is no such thing as "the best custom rom". Individual preference has been the key-decider. It's either you sacrifice the colour temperature feature on MIUI and stick to AEX or you jejely port back to MIUI... Choice is yours grin

Nna eh, how white a screen looks is the most important thing I look out for in a phone and it's the probably the reason I don't use AMOLED phones. Are you also using aex rom

Hey guys. Please my phone developed a problem where it gets stuck at the loading screen. That is, whenever I switch it on, it doesn't go to the home screen, it just stays stuck on the loading screen. So the phone repairer suggested that I flash the phone. Now the problem is that I have very important files on the phone and can't afford to lose them. So please is there anyway I can access, transfer or retrieve my files from the phone while it's still on the loading screen?

Before flashing any rom, read the changelog to know the features it has.
Port to another rom if AEX doesn't satisfy you

Most gcam I know are zip files. Flash camera2api zip and keep trying different mods till you get the right one.

There's a fix, if you're on pie, download advanced control. From there, change the kcal option to anyone that you like

Finally found an app that worked for me. If you want to calibrate your screen colour on custom ROMs, you might want to give it a trial.

You just have to open the app and then set the rgb values to what you want.
