    I removed everything in the attached pic a few weeks ago and have had no problems since:
    495005.jpg

    I left in the Package Installer, Xiaomi Sim Activate Service and Xiaomi Service Framework apps, as from googling around it seems like they might be necessary. You can probably remove all the google apps too (I only removed Chrome), but maybe google if the Google App itself, or any of the com.android apps, are necessary before you remove them.

    Hi.
    Is there any instructions how to carry out this? Completely clueless but fast learner.
    Thanks

    Is there much of difference with xiaomi mi 9 lite? It's a present for Google Facebook and taking photos is all its needed for

    Looking to get one of these as an Xmas present for herself and just wondering is eglobal still the best/cheapest place to get it from? I see it's currently €266 for the black 64/6 GB version, link below.

    Any better deals out there that ship from Europe?

    From web reviews seems to be a small chance of quality issues with the phone. It is a great price from Eglobal, but from reviews I read, forget about returns if there is a phone problem.
    I went Eglobal, seems to be lowest price and no problems.

    Stg257 on amazon UK.

    Would this be an upgrade on the Huawei Mate 10 Pro or should I stick to what I have

    Thanks

    The pro would be with the 855 processor, but to be honest the mate 10 pro is still a decent phone.

    Sorry, never saw your post. If you still need instructions:
    On PC:
    1. Download the appropriate zip file from here. (if you are on windows, then the file that ends with "win.zip").
    2. Extract the zip.

    On your phone:
    3. Activate developer options (open settings, open "about phone", press on "MIUI Version" multiple times until it says you are developer).
    4. Turn on Debugging mode in developer options (go back to settings, then got to "Aditional Settings" under SYSTEM & DEVICE, open developer options and then scroll down to usb debugging and turn on).
    (First half of this video will help, if you can't find step 3 and 4 settings).
    5. Plug your phone into your PC

    On you PC.
    6. Open the extracted folder from earlier and run "XiaomiADBFastbootTools.jar".
    7. You will then see the window from my earlier pictures and can uninstall what you don't want in the uninstall tab (tick what you want rid of and click uninstall on the bottom).

    Anyone running a custom rom on this yet?

    Mine's ready to unlock, but haven't decided which rom to try - likely Pixel Experience..

    Not yet, I'll start by removing the bloatware but I had lineage OS on my previous Mi 5 and that was fantastic. I'll give it a couple of months to allow the ROMs to become more stable. Would like to try Oxygen if that's stable by then.

    I ordered the 128 gb version last night. Never used eglobal before so I'm hoping it goes well. It's some phone for the price. It's for my son. I have the mi a1 a good while now but the problem is it hasnt suffered any trouble really so far.... Can't justify upgrading my phone until it warrants it.

    Give yourself a good three weeks to receive to from eglobal

    Ordered the 128GB from HonorBuy on Thursday afternoon and it arrived this morning, great service.

    Just playing around with it now to set it up how I like and learn the UI differences. Will be having a good read of this thread!

    Have mine a few weeks now. Well happy. Great battery life also.

    Got an 8/256 recently from EGlobal in 8 days from order. Hating not being rooted, another few days left to unlock. Nice enough phone but finding it a bit too small for me and battery life isn't great but that's coming from the Mi Max 2/3.



    Tbh can barely notice any difference in speed but I don't game. Also amoled isn't the big improvement I'd been hoping for (prior to the Max's I'd used the Samsung Note series from 1 up). I'll see how I like it once I can root and fully move over but right now the little screen is making me think I'll be moving it on and sticking with my Max 3 for the forseeable future.

    expectations of random weirdos on the internet commenting on thier phone choice?

    Imagine having such a small cock stuff like that matters to you?

    Get over it, tiny Tim.

    I've a Redmi Note 4 and got the Miui 11 update during the week.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 330 ✭✭MackDeToaster


    I got the update 3 days ago.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,827 ✭✭✭Mark Hamill


    I could have sworn the update notification popped up a day or two ago on my phone (Mi 9t Pro), but I was busy and ignored it at the time. I forgot about it (and the notification is gone), but this thread reminded me and now it says I'm already on latest firmware (10.3.3).

    Just an FYI, the MIUI 11 update may fuck with your APN settings. Did so for me and resulted in my being charged for hotspot data. Cost me a f*cking tenner!

    I think I'll do the same - doesn't seem to be a stable official ROM yet.
    Debloated it last night with no trouble.

    I still want to root the phone, but there's many conflicting reports of which TWRP version to use.

    Has anyone rooted theirs running MIUI 11 global version, and if so, which TWRP did you use?

    Whats the correct APN to use? Anyone got the update and use the KBC app successfully?

    Depends on the network, but on Vodafone it was just a matter of selecting live.vodafone.com instead of hs.vodafone.com

    Does this come with a case. Or any recommendations?

    Mine came with a case from Amazon.es - it was in the box with the phone

    Seems ok, no screen protector, but I had already ordered the Nillkin case (good) and (apparently custom) Aolander screen protectors via eBay (not yet fitted).
