Mi Max Helium 3gb/64gb - first review (and ROM flash tips)

Hi,
guess this will be more of a review as it is hard to say which feature i like BEST:
Got my MAX 3gb/64gb (helium) delievered yesterday. Since it came with the 7.3 MIUI first thing i had to do was read up on how to install the MIUI8 China dev rom to the device. After a bit of fiddling and translating chinese / indian websites i came up with a workable solution, even with the bootloader locked. So since yesterday evening i got MIUI8 6.6.23 running on the device - weeded out some apps i did not understand (chinese) and installed Play Store.
So far i must say - this phone is glorious. MIUI8 is fast and seemingly stable, i did not come across any big bugs and there doesnt even seem to be the typical micro-stuttering. Im really happy i bought the phone and hoping there will be a multilanguage (i.e. german) MIUI8 for it. For now im perfectly good with the Dev Rom and english localisation.
Thanks Xiaomi!
To anybody interested - flashing the China Development ROM (MIUI 8 6.6.23) with the locked bootloader was not exactly easy, here is how to:
- get the rom image from here: http://en.miui.com/thread-299033-1-1.html (be sure to download the Mi Max Pro fastboot image - 1418mb)
- get MiFlash Beta from here: http://xiaomitips.com/download/new-miflash-beta-one-click-install-miui-fastboot-rom/
- extract tgz fastboot image - keep folder structure!
- enable developer options -> usb debugging in additional settings then turn off phone
- boot phone into EDL mode (phone off, press simultaneously vol+&vol- then connect usb cable)
- open miflash beta - there should be an entry with "id 1" and "device" something like "COM10" in the bottom table now - SEE ATTACHED SCREENSHOTS!
- select the folder where extracted image is located
- tick "clean all" in the bottom right
- hit flash
- enjoy.

First of all, thank you for sharing this. I went step by step (vol up and down didn't work for me, tried power and vol up and device didn't show up in fast boot, did vol down and power and it showed up) then I flashed the image and it successfully flashed, when the device booted it still showed the 7.4.16 global stable Rom the vendor installed : /, I did it again and the same thing, the rom didn't change. could you please help/?

Sorry, I followed the steps exactly as described and it worked out perfectly, thank you very much, its just that when I pressed vol + and - I didn't see anything on the screen so I thought it wasn't working, miui 8 is nice indeed, could you explain how you installed the play store, the one on the Mi store is crashing on me.

it's a little tricky but there is a thread on here that should get you started. you have to use the Google installer and then update some Google components before you restart your phone.

Nothing is impossible... Unlock bootloader (not even required anymore), flash TWRP, flash latest SuperSu or prerooted ROM... Done.

6.6.23 is older (june 23)
6.7.7 is the newest sofar (July 7)
I use the weekly multi rom on my MI Max since its better tuned with translations and the china apps that I don't use are removed
https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/6-7-7-11.32639/

the process for installing the new Version does not change with the newer miui8 6.7.7 so you're good to go with the same Instructions from OP.
Meanwhile on my Max I have boot loader unlocked and root. Works flawlessly with the new MIUI weekly Releases.

Would you mind pointing that thread where it's explained?

Thanks a lot for you experience sharing,
I was wondering maybe you solved this: i can't get whatsapp to run on this rom, even with all permissions given, whatapps and skype cant access my contacts. I got my contacts on the system using the old google installer apk which worked wonders except now i can't get past the looking for backup screen in whatsapp.
If anyone has ideas pls let me know and in the meanwhile i will try to flash other roms to see if one works..

I answered my own question playing with the settings. You have to register under accounts mi accounts to unable contact sync for all apps .... ? anyway it all works now!
BTW I have updated MUIU using http://en.miui.com/download-302.html#446 new dev rom and followed instructions.

Thanks heaps for the tutorial about installing Google Play services
By the way, can this rom you're talking about be flashed following the instructions by original poster?
Do I need to flash in first place the rom from original poster (MIUI 8 6.6.23) and then flash your new one (MIUI 8 6.7.14)?
Or can I flash directly latest one?

I can't tell you for sure but i think you have to use the instructions from the muiu site if you want the lastest dev rom.
1- I used OP instructions and links to install muiu 8
2- updated to last china dev rom following muiu site instructions.
3- installed all gapps stuff
PS if you want to ROOT, do this between 2 and 3: (unlocked boot loader)
1-Download SuperSu to root Xiaomi Mi Max and copy it to your phone sd card from this site: http://www.stechguide.com/root-install-twrp-recovery-xiaomi-mi-max/
2-Download xiaomi twrp flasher and use it to flash from: http://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-max/development/tool-xiaomi-twrp-flasher-mauronofrio-win-t3405207
3-Follow instructions from step 9 : http://www.stechguide.com/root-install-twrp-recovery-xiaomi-mi-max/
Last thing im playing with trying to activate LTE bands on the phone. If anyone can help for that, i can't get the drivers to install propertly

Hello any chance of CM13 for the non-PRO version?
I'm just trying to build the kernel source released yesterday, but it seems the symlinks inside the archive are stored in a bad way, I'll have to fix that somehow first. And I've never built a CM before, so it can take me some time... or make that a LOT of time

Salut Guillaume,
There is already a thread open regarding the bootloader unlock process, please read it. You will find there a link given to register with an email address instead of a phone number

mokee build are buggy, just tried the last one, if the phone rotation is ON, the phone reboot when it rotate.
also there is no vibration
but this seems to be the only bug.

Dear Zyvex,

Unfortunately, I have tried with some threads related to Zuk developpers and each time, after entering email, a new widow appear asking telephone number to register.
So please give me the good link.

Thank you, it is just what I have done, and all is great, nut, I can only boot the rcovery with fastboot, impossible to flash. An error occured with ADB mentionning problem :
Unknown partion: 'recovery-TWRP-3.0.2-20160712-ZUK_Z2_PRO-CN-wzsx150.img'
error: cannot determine image filename for 'recovery-TWRP-3.0.2-20160712-ZUK_Z2_PRO-CN-wzsx150.img'
I will try to find more.
Thank's again!

Seems like you don‘t tell fastboot on which partition to flash TWRP.
Try this one:
fastboot -i 0x2b4c flash recovery path/to/twrp/img

7.1.2 Dirty Unicorns Rom

This is just a heads-up about a 7.1.2 Rom by Anderson Mendes. Saw it somewhere and downloaded it, works very well. You need to flash a zip called motoactionfix with the Rom. Latest beta SuperSu works, as does 7.1 Gapps.

Motoactionfix
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=457095661767151817

well, but I get a configuration error on the start screen ...... what happend.... I flashed the pico gaaps

Yes. Its working well. I am using it from 2 days. Only one random reboot initially after installing. Till now all basic things working.
Installing ROM and gapps together gives setup widget fc.
But Flashing ROM, reboot, flash gapps works fine.

Installed it, works really well.
Was able to install Substratum with 7.1.1 Themes.
THANKS!

You CAN'T' post any DU roms on XDA. Ffs, take this down.

Pulse not working properly & equalizer too..

That's not actually true. An "Urban Myth" perhaps.

Any bugs?

Well the only bug, and it seem to be common on AOSP roms, is that the Navbar Editor is listed in Settings but it can't be invoked.
Anyone know a workaround to change the order of the navbar buttons?

Same error

Yup I am already on OmniROM Pie Alpha 5.2, which is Android 9 version
Thanks, I will give it a shot surely

I had 2 mate 10 RNE-L21 phones both having OmniROM Pie Alpha 5.2, so I tried OmniROM Beta 1 on one of
them and got bootloop on Factory Reset (it restarts around 20/25%)

Yes, that's because you (we) need to wait the official update to Android 9 Pie, after that, we can flash these ROMs.
How is OmniROM Pie Alpha 5.2? Works fine? Battery life etc...?

Yup I was thinking like that as well
Yes ROM is very good, I am using it now on both phones, satisfied, only problem is stock camera
gets stuck if u switch between vdo/image, and some time even if u do not switch, still it will close after a while
So have to use Open camera or Google camera, for which I am not satisfied with both of them

what about the microphone? recording and such? for instance, everytime I tried recording voice messages on Instagram or messenger it would always sound glitched/robotic

Have you test this https://forum.xda-developers.com/pr...abled-device-development/9-0-omnirom-t3901305 ??

all I'd like to know is if there's any pie rom without the microphone problem

How do you have installed the ROM?
I followed the guide on OpenKirin site but I'm stuck in the page says my device is unlocked and can't be trusted, I've pressed power key to confirm the boot but nothing, it says: "Your device is booting now" but it doesn't go on.
I've tried with another ROM (OmniROM Pie Alpha 5.2 and OmniROM Pie Alpha 4) but same error...
Why?

I followed that guide but nothing.
Now I'm restoring it with eRecovery because the ROM doesn't start.
What you mean with "microphone isn't working"?

if you try recording a voice message, the sound is very glitchy and it has a lot of static in it, it's probably happening cause we don't officially have EMUI 9
tho it will release in july or late october for mate 10 lite

Hi,
I installed it on my rne-l21c432b338, then on b340 and on b341.
he always starts.
I use hurupdater to install the stock firmware. (check that you have the three firmware files of the same version.)
a faith installed, I go to REBOOT, select recovery. do factory rest and wipe cache. it restarts clean.
then connect to the PC.
with adb and fastboot, I install SYSTEM.img omnirom. (of course omnirom alpha 5.2
not the new version it is only for emui 9.)
faith flashed, unplug the cable and pushed it into recovery mode and make factory rest and wipe cache.
he starts for me.

In the past I had already installed a ROM from OpenKirin, but there was some problems with it and then I removed it with eRecovery. It has downloaded stock ROM (about 2,7GB if I remember right) and installed it. So I think I'm already on stock ROM (or am I wrong?)
Today I've tried to install 2 ROMs from OpenKirin and nothing happen, I get stuck on "The device is booting now..."
I've never used HuRUpdater (like I said before, I've always installed the stock ROM using eRecovery).
I don't understand what files I need (I know where to find files, here, but there I don't understand anything ahaha)
Probably is this the problem?

how do i upgrade to emui on my mate 10 pro is it even possible with an unlocked bootloader without relocking? the omnirom one is extremely laggy for me even the notificationpanel is extremely difficult to pull down, trying to install the latest rom thats for emui9 just gives a bootloop

Hi guys, sorry for posting here but I really need some help becasue I bricked my Mate 10 lite, here is a link for more explonation:
