If he's using a custom recovery eg twrp, wipe only data will clean up the phone ROM but obviously lose files already on the phone

Yes that's decryption. Let him try and give feedback

xiaomi.eu is still a custom ROM

xiaomi.eu is still a custom ROM
Most importantly miui based

Normal issue in MIUI... Even if you succeed in applying it via other methods it will still keep reverting to the stock theme... If you want to use a third party theme flash a Custom ROM
Nawooo! I thought as much same because what you said now was exactly what I faced in my redmi 6 pro.
I can't use any custom rom cos I just don't want to unlock my bootloader because most of these custom roms do have some kind of bugs, like during my samsung time, most of its custom rom had an issue of the camera.
Moreover I love the xiaomi UI as it is very smooth and optimised.
But in your opinion, what custom rom with less annoying bugs will you advise a novice like me to go for?

Go for MIUI Custom ROMs if you want to avoid bugs... The likes of xiaomi.eu, MiRoom, Masik MiNovo..... These Custom ROMs are still based on MIUI, so you will enjoy the MIUI features

lol thanks boss. I was initially on miui 12. But noticed that my phone became slow and was lagging small small after flashing MIUI 12. So I had to flashed back this current one which has been very smooth and lovely. I love everything about this new rom.

Well maybe it was lagging on my phone because it is 3gb ram. It was not funny. WhatsApp became slow and all the phone was freezing somehow which was not so on my normal miui 11 rom. Till I moved to this new rom which has been so nice and cool.

Lol. If you flash basic gapps (the one with AOSP dialer), you'll get call recording, full gestures (same as MIUI), third party applock will do.

Na only second space go miss. And since I don't use that, it's of little concern to me.

You can't.

Move all your media files to your memory card and leave your phone memory for apps and apodata

Not really advisable, if the memory card is slower than your internal storage (Which is mostly the case) then it slows down your phone.

Hmm. Then it is better to format it as portable storage.

Custom rom is not a must but if you are adventurous and willing to cope and patiently seek for solution if you encounter any challenges in your quest, you can start with a miui based custom rom like miroom, masik, miuimix etc and work your way up to asop like havoc, ion, evolution X etc. It just adds some spices to your overall experience while using your phone.

OrangeFox sometimes have issues with devices with 2gb ram. I'll suggest you flash the old version of your orange fox again.

Boss Olayinkjnr abeg come out me through too. I use a Redmi Note 7 too.

I saw on telegram that you're in the same location that I'm in. We can possibly hook-up sir.
Re: ### Xiaomi Thread For Tweaking Of Phones & Help Spot ### by curryjuniour(m): 3:32pm On Jun 27, 2020

Yes. Copy out your files to your laptop.

Which recovery?



- Boot into OrangeFox
- Format data
- Wipe everything except /vendor and SD/OTG
- Reboot recovery
- Flash BUILD.zip
- Flash Magisk
- Reboot to system



I flashed corvus os v6.5 with gitgapps.
Also I flashed predator kernel v7. 7.
A guy on telegram that giuided me from a-z without asking for a dime. I get luck grin
It's perfect.
One more question, I have no idea on how to install gcam and which is best for my device.
The tutorials on YouTube are not helping at all.

No, not stuck on mi logo, just didn't boot to recovery again, boots straight to system when I tried to boot to recovery.
