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.

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?

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.

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

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. grin

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 cool

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

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.

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.
