Lineage OS + MIUI Stock Apps? - Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime Questions & Answers

I am a owner of the Xiaomi Redmi 4 Pro (Prime) since July this year.
At the moment I am using stock ROM MIUI 8 and loving all the cool Apps.
My only problem is that the ROM is still on Android 6 Marshmallow.
Now I'm thinking about switching to Lineage OS cause I loved the ROM also on my OnePlus 2.
I want to know now, is it possible to install all MIUI 8 Stock Apps like:
File Manager
Scanner
Compass
Mi TV Remote
& Clock Application
If I could use all this Apps with Lineage OS I would probably Root my device and switch.
Hope some Users could help me with this.
Greetings kazumamon

Some will not work on Lineage os i think. But u can can find some of those on play store u need to search with Miui tag. If you want to try backup the apks with Android assistant and try on Los. I think it's worth a shot for you :highfive:

New Miui 8 Xiaomi.eu Multirom 7.2.9_v8-7.0 for Helium (SD652)

Hello,

Hahaha, typical. I just yesterday installed Lineage 14 after running xiaomi.eu Marshmallow roms for my MI Max and today they release they new one...
Would be awsome to hear about how these roms compare?
I do like the integration with your MI account on MIUI roms, otherwise...meh, don't feel like I'm missing out on much.
Sure the interface is a bit nice...
But for me batterylife and smoothness are they main features that I'm looking for.
Id love to hear about your experiences with xiaomi.eu roms compared to the lates ASOP Nougat flavors.

I have not tried the lineage rom. Can i just download the rom and gapps and flash through twrp? The instructions seemed critical so did not try it out. Something like do this if your miui version number changes ?
Today i have downloaded and currently using the latest xiaomi.eu rom. It looks stable but lags a little here and there.

Well, I'm running Mi Max Hydrogen 32 GB / 3gb ram version and did the following to flash the unoffical lineageos 14.1
1. Downloaded the hydrogen rom: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B60OA264UF_PMjVQN3A5a2g2MDg - lineage-14.1-20170201-UNOFFICIAL-hydrogen.zip
2. Downloaded the following firmware: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B60OA264UF_PRmZpSGZpa2ZxOHc - firmware-HYDROGEN_MDG-7.1.5.zip
3. Downloaded pico opengapps for arm64 soc - http://opengapps.org/
4. Did a full wipe (except user data) i.e. not factory reset but selected in TWRP 3.0.2.0 the partitions I wanted to format.
5. Flashed the Hydrogen Rom in point 1.
6. Flashed Firmware in point 2.
7. Flashed Pico Gapps in point 3
8. Wiped Cache & Rebooted.
Its still working fine, ofcourse I made sure to backup my sms and other stuff I wanted to keep from before....MIUI backups and cloud services aren't really compatible with Lineage
Can't really say anything about the batterylife, it's decent but the phone hasn't received a decent nights charge since yesterday.
A few things that I did was to ad adway and modify youtube so that I get an adfree experience without exposed.
Also I've moved Gsam to privilaged systemapps in order to have good battery tracking.
I also use Greenify as I did with Miui 8 and have Greenyfied Facebook, Instagram and such apps that tend to hang around. Also I've Frozen the Stock Music player since it was waking the phone a lot from deepsleep. Did it with Titanium backup.

Noted. Thanks will flash tonight.
Is it smooth? Any lags? The new xiaomi.eu nougat rom is the same as marshmallow. Nothing new..
What about the lineage rom.. Does it feel like you are using nougat?
can i dirty flash 7.2.9 over the leaked MIUI 8 Android 7.0 version?
will it still lock my bootloader?

Actually miui nougat from xiaomi.eu doesn't lock bootloader on Mi Max. It locks bootloader only on mi4c, mi4s and mi note pro.

Now I've actually tried both RR 5.8.0 and Lineage unofficial 14.1 and in my opinion RR is definitely much smoother.
Flashed it about an hour ago so battery and sot is unknown.
But as for Linage the battery life is on par with what I got on miui, maybe slightly shorter but didn't test it enough to get conclusive results.
Lineage is smooth as well, smoother then miui but nothing that I was super amazed by. I didn't have the small hangups when you switch apps and such so it was good, totally satisfactory.
RR on the other hand is a clear difference in smoothness. Gonna test it a bit more, if battery holds up then I'm sticking with this rom.

0.3 - 0.4% discharge per hour and it's really smooth as well

Yes its the best rom ever that can even blow up your hardware
Its so cool that the CPU begs you to stop usong the rom and on all other rom you found GPS issue
Can you give a logcat after turning on so that we porters and developers(who never got such a complaint) can specially contact you to have some new bugs whenever our roms feel bugfree

its lollipop

SM-A500FU Bloatware and stable custom ROM

Hi guys!
I have SM-A500FU and I'm using stock ROM 6.0.1 rooted. First I want to remove some system apps but I'm not sure on what to remove and what to keep. Do you have any suggestions on what is safe to remove?
Also I've seen that there is not any stable and full working android 7 ROM (correct me if I'm wrong) Is there any good 7 ROM out there?
Sorry if my questions are stupid but I'm trying not to brick my phone.
Thanks!

You can try the Resurrection Remix Nougat 7.1.1 Rom for your Galaxy A5 Sm-A500FU.
Resurrection Remix ROM
It was made for the SM-A500H but it will work with the "FU" too.
I installed it on my SM-A500FU two weeks ago without any problems.
The only thing is that NFC doesn´t work. But I don´t need it.
I hope this is " stable and full working " enough for you because i did not found a better Rom with Android 7.
If you want a more stable ROM with Android 8 you should try this:
LineageOS 15 ROM
You can remove every Google App from you Phone like Hangouts or GMail.
You can try my Lineage 14.1 ROM, which is android 7.1.2 nougat.
It is designed for a500fu
Lineage 14.1
The ROM is very stable and suitable to be a daily driver. Some features like NFC I haven't tested but should work, I only built this yesterday
Also if there are bugs please tell me.

Hello Guys,
Since official update doesnt seem to be happening, I wanted to know which is the best pie based custom rom for maxpro m1, which would tick below criteria
Best battery backup / SOT
GCAM support / camera 2 api enabled
Regular updates and support
No major bugs
I see there are lot of custom roms available to choose from. Need suggestion to pick the night one.
Ps. I haven't rooted my phone yet.

So, maybe you should try it one by one :fingers-crossed:

Thanks! I have seen all these roms in the tread. What i wanted to know was the first hand experience of the people who have used it. If not all, at least few of the above mentioned roms.
i personally love Bootleggers rom......give it a try...
Well, at it's current state, Havoc OS v2.2 is the most stable Pie ROM for our phone, in my opinion. I've just recently flashed it and it's giving me very good battery backup and performance. PUBG seems to work good too (I haven't played the game in high settings as I usually play it in classic setting which works really great).
The sounds are not exactly same as stock but it just works well. The audio output is good too.
The ROM has Pixel 2 Gcam pre-installed and it works good, again. Though for some reason Pixel 3 Gcams aren't working yet in the latest build. So there's that.
There are no major bugs. The only known bugs to me as of now is the Pixel 3 gcam crashing, and the headphone issue during call (the other person can't hear you while calling using headphones).
Havoc : good & stable
1. Liquid Remix latest build (Unofficial though)
2. Havoc OS 2.2
3. Bootleggers ROM latest build.
No major bugs in either of them but Liquid Remix and Bootleggers give the best audio experience ( Almost close to stock ). These are the best stable ROMs right now in my experience. Shuffling between them for almost a month now. Customize more with Magisk modules. Cheers !!

Favourite rom and why?

Hey guys,
I'll soon be getting the Poco F2 Pro and like I've done for previous devices with an active rom development community, just wondering what is your current rom of choice and for what reasons.
This can be a place just to share your experience of the various roms available to us and provide a summary of what you like about it, frequency of updates, battery, features, bugs etc.
Looking forward to hearing back...
oneOS until they didnt having some crazy idea to charge weekly updates 2e,so they stop to developing it because a lot of people didnt like this idea.
xiaomi.eu is also good. I am using it instead of oneOS

Thanks for the reply.
What do you like about it, in comparison to stock rom etc?
Anyone any other suggestions? I see there's over 15 custom roms for this , which is great, though would be keen to hear people's experience with some of them.
I'm currently tempted by Havoc, just because I've enjoyed that rom on previous devices. Just I wish to avoid any bugs and just want a feature-rich stable rom, no background drain or significant things broken...
Xiaomi.eu is a good rom. I am on weekly. Every friday I got updates, also you have stable. On weekly ,you get first the latest updates from china ROM. Battery is also good too. No bugs or any bug problems with this ROM

Nice, stable roms are always a winner.
Have you tried any of the custom roms?
I used to love custom roms in general but then found myself just valuing stable stock much better these days. I do miss some features from custom roms though, but stock does just seem the best in some ways.
Unless someone can suggest a custom feature-packed rom that doesn't sacrifice performance...
Only OneOS that eas the best rom after bootleggers that I have on 8pro
for aosp like custom rom ,i'll choose crdroid ,because its stable enough , lots of customization , up t0 date .
for miui based = xiaomi.eu, im using it now , had to switch to xiaomi.eu from crdroid because of the camera .
and for android 10 will choose evolution rom.

When you say the camera, is that because you missed miui camera and prefer it over gcam? That's my thoughts too.... Will try crdroid on Tues when I can unlock, but I almost sense I'll go to stock miui eu but rooted and debloated

Last stable and weekly EU rom pass safety net and have the playstore certified whitout root.
xiaomi.eu is the best one for me.
Since end of January, the weekly builds are good, they pass safetynet, play store is certified, google pay works, all my bank apps work, even enterprise office365 is fine (without root of course, I haven't found any hack for this with magisk activated).
MIUI 12.5, Xiaomi phone app, no add, various tweaks included, more responsive and better battery life than stock.
A no brainer if you want a MIUI based ROM!
This is now my daily driver for my work phone!

Does call recording work too?
Is dual sim active with a 5G sim?
Xiaomi.eu automatically updates itself via OTA when there are new builds?
Then I unlock the bootloader, install the TWRP, install the weekly xiaomi.eu and all the banking apps, playstore, etc. do they work or do I have to do something else?
Thank you.

I'm on Xiaomi.eu too and I can confirm that call recording works well because of Xiaomi dialer in this ROM, there is even an option for automatic recording.
As for the 5G and dual sim - from what I know this is technically unpossible. There probably are no phones at the moment which support dual sim with 5G.

As for the dual sim with 5G, I mean one sim in 5G and one in 4G. If you read in the instruction manual it says that they would have activated this function with an update ...

Do you have a link to the TWRP you used to install xiaomi.eu?
I think I want to try it, especially if you say there are no problems with banking apps...
But you say root doesn't work?
I am currently using ANCIENTOS, a lot of customization and options and especially a brightness control for AOD.
The autonomy is very good and the FOD is fast.
The play store is not certified, but my banking application is working.
