Hello guys, im a n00b but yet i carry great intrest in android, recently switched from iphone to a6000 - so which ROM of A6000 model is stable the most in your opinion and in lollipop. I have tried cyanogen 12.1 (both 32bit by ED-300 and 64bit by satagass or uber_dimion) with kernel of Telo however after opening a few apps my phone freezes and screen goes black and its a complete overkill for a tech savy, so can you please give suggestions of which rom with which kernel is best compatible and any other tweaks i may be missing out on. Also is there a way to disable autostart apps that run such as facebook messenger when you fresh boot the phone. Thanks in advance =) Cheers :good:
Im currently using CM 12.1 by ED300 with Phantom Kernel, rom is very stable and minimal lag. I think its one of the best roms for A6000 including MIUI 7 (russian build)

If you want extreme battery life, try CM11 with chappil's MoStock Kernel. But, I would suggest MIUI7 Russian Build with weekly updates. It has good battery life for everyday use and doesn't have any lags. Also, it has beautiful UI and you can apply a no. of themes from the MIUI store. And, it has USB Fast Charging and OC included in its stock Kernel. Other kernels like GoD's Kernel and Phantom Kernel works with it too, and has no bugs. :fingers-crossed: :silly:

=) thanks alot for your opinion, at the moment im running stock lollipop 5.0.2 (lenovo) with Telo kernel and so far so good, the ram management is excellent and no lags compared to cyanogen although that seemed to be alot snappier in use
do you use FB and messenger ver main ?

Hello guys, I would like to know from you if its worth it to flash a customrom on my mia1. I've been using it since one year now , and i have keept it stock, just the camera2api for gc.
And over all i've been happy with it.
And have 0 experience with A/B partition phones ,my previews phone was nexus 6.
Is it easy to flash twrp and than a custom rom ?
Any suggestions would be apreciated :victory:
Depends what extra feature you seek.
I use stock happily with xposed
I'll probably use a custom ROM once Xiaomi drops update and support for Mi A1.

Thats what i've been thinking too , its not that i need any more features , im used to stock android.
In my opinion, nowadays smartphones already have many cool features and don't really require custom mods, like root or custom roms, however there are still a few but pretty strong reasons why you would like to flash a custom ROM:
- You'll always have the latest Android OS and security patches without having to wait like on stock ROM
- You'll have a wide range of customization possibilities so you can set your Mi A1 just on the style you want
- You'll also have the possibility of using custom Kernels which can give you better performance, specially in gaming or if you're more of a battery guy, they'll focus more into battery, depending on what you're looking for
- You'll be able to root your device which also opens many possibilities (mainly using root apps) but it's also pretty useful specially with that magisk modules thing which allow you to install things like the stock Mi A1 camera on custom ROMs, apps like Viper4Android (which is an equalizer with premium sound quality), etc.
Last but not least, keep in mind that the stock ROM already is very smooth and has a great battery life, so don't expect custom ROMs to be better than that, from my experience I can tell that custom ROMs are pretty close or equal, but I haven't found a ROM that gives better battery life than stock (maybe there are some or maybe it just needs some kernel tweaking, however I'm not really into kernel tweaking lol)
My advice: If you're looking for latest updates or customization, go ahead and flash a custom ROM, every other thing can be done on stock, keep in mind that the stock ROM can also be rooted or flashed with a custom kernel
I'm actually using NitrogenOS with Moun kernel and I couldn't be more satisfied, ROM feels stable, smooth and has a fairly decent amount of customization along with latest Android 9.0 and latest security patches without having to wait for them like on stock ROM.
Aaaaand also keep in mind that if after trying custom ROMs you don't like them, you can always come back to stock, like if you've never flashed a custom OS, so I would try it out, if you want I can guide you through the whole process on telegram
Short answer: Yes.
Longer answer:
Xiaomi seem to not be that good with speed & quality of updates. I haven't experienced many bugs myself but just the fact how slow updates are compared to custom ROMs and the fact that Magisk doesn't work properly on Stock made me just forget about it and flash a Custom ROM.
The question has to be asked.... What do you want you don't already have?
If a custom rom offers a feature you need then yes do it otherwise I have to ask why would you want to?

I guess rooting would be enough then. You can change both with magisk (or build prop settings afaik).
I liked LOS to try out something new but came back to stock. Now I am thinking of rooting again for bt volume.
Another great reason is camera2 for google camera. Way better than stock IMO
Better flash custom roms after xiaomi drops the updates. Like after a year Pie updates.

Don't be afraid of A/B Partition, CosmicDan TWRP very easy to use
It's been more than a month since I got my lavender. Seeing so many Roms developed, I'm feeling to unlock my bootloader and flash custom Rom. What do you think?
I can already unlock bootloader but didn't. I feel custom roms development for this device isn't mature enough yet. Thinking of waiting until official TWRP and LOS are released.
Please guys, do custom roms have L1 certification for playing HD videos on Netflix ?
I think you should stay with MIUI (but this version is better) + debloating your device with this tool (you can remove everything - I already did it and installed Google apps via the playstore)
I think MIUI is more feature complete: the edge gestures amazing & tons of useful feature that are simply missing in stock android! Feel free to slap a theme on it (if you want) and there you go cheers!
I'll be sticking with MIUI until they stop updating. Then I'll switch to LineageOS or similar. By that time I expect that it will be very stable and make my phone feel like new.
I have switched to Nova Launcher though.
What are differences between the latest MIUI 10.3.5 and xiomi.eu?

Beta Xiaomi.eu ROMs are based on china dev which has latest changes and the good thing is they removed a lot of useless stuff and added Gapps as well. It's like clean version of china dev in all languages without any ads.
It's really good
i got my Redmi Note 7 (global) 3 days ago. I thought in advantage that i will go for LOS (or similar) as soon as possible. But my opinion has changed...
The most important thing in my opinion is debloating, as mentioned above. You don't need root or an unlocked bootloader btw.
In addition i use Nova Launcher Prime and the Playstore App "Notch Notifications for MIUI".
I'm very satisfied so far... MIUI definitely adds some super useful functions that i missed on my recent phones like Mi A1 with Android One.
On the other hand, the more people use and test the custom roms now, the better quality said roms will be when I want them in a year or two.
Like the title says, is the original rom good? Or should i go custom right as i boot it 1fst time
It worth it, at least you get the notifications work correctly and shows at the top of the status bar unlike the stock rom..
My advice to you is to istall lineage only, it's the most stable rom so far.
It depends on your priorities, if you want more choice, more control on what apps are pre installed, no bloatware, and more customization options, then that's what custom roms are for. But mind that it comes with lower security, at least as long as the manufacturer updates the device. Because custom roms usually run with looser security settings and features.
does custom roms fix the touchscreen lag on the edges?
Not worth it yet. Wait till official lineage and official trwp are released. More risky to use custom roms whose source codes are not released.

as i've seen and read in the forums, the unoffical lineage rom seems to be very stable already. Which problem do you see in flashing this version now?
My bootloader is unlocked in 3 hours and i want to get rid of this EMUI crap and bloatware

You don't get updates on unofficial versions and it's not as well maintained/supported as name implies. I rather keep bootloader locked and secured, and get almost monthly updates from xiaomi. Until official TWRP and LOS are released, as stated earlier. No need to rush and deal with instability or unexpected problems. I debloat unnecessary apps using SAKI program on stock room without root. I honestly think this is the best path to go for now.
I won't install any custom roms before official TWRP support and official LineageOS ROM support comes. I'd not also unlock my phone's bootloader untill those two thing comes.

I switched to Pixel Exirience rom from the global 10.3.5 and touch latency on the edges still the same.
I don't know what custom rom users priorities are, mine definitely having a smooth and proper working device. Most roms I tested in the past simple but most used features, like the camera, were always a headache. It might make sense for a techie or geek, but for daily use I'd rather debloat MIUI for mind peace...

any of you guys installed xiaomi.eu? seems like the better version of miui IMO.

The Evira Kernel is built into the PE, so i just updated it to the last 1.9 version and did not feel any difference.

If you just want to get rid off the bloatware, just use adb commands. No unlocking and rooting needed
If you got the 3GB/32GB variant. then lineage OS or pixel experience should save you some extra GBs of storage and free you some extra ram (MiUI 10.3.5 uses 1.6GB or something IDLE and leaves you with 20GB storage with stock apps)
It is to early. You have latest version of Android OS on your phone, and Xaomi still give us updates with some new features.
Custom Roms are still developing and have some bugs,so .. I will no rush with installing custom rom yet. Thats my opinion.
When Xaomi stop supporting us and giving us updates,after one year that is sure that will happen,than will custom ROMs will be fully developed..and can install it..
I would like to have custom rom ,and Elvira kernel, I like tweaks and mods from Magisk. But also I want to see MIUI 11 and next Xaomi updates for RN7.
As soon as I could, I unlocked my bootloader and installed AOSP (GSI).
I don't really like MIUI, it has a lot of nice features but actually I don't use most of them.
For me, it's worth.
Hello. First of all, i have experience flashing roms on my phone (I have my bootloader unlocked already, and i have root permissions), but right now I'm on stock pie, up to date with last updates. I noticed that my kernel is 3.18.xx.
The last couple of days I have been doing some tweaking to my phone, and I'd like to have as much battery life as possible, so, of course, I read about different kernels like lightning, franco's, extreme, and so on.
The thing is that, for example, for lightning, which seems the only one that still supports A1, I have to be on kernel 4.9 and using a custom rom.
My questions are:
Is it mandatory to be on a custom rom to flash a custom kernel? or
Is it possible to flash a custom kernel under a stock rom? If that's the case,
Should I update my kernel to 4.9 by flashing a stock kernel? Or I can apply a custom kernel directly?
Honestly, most of this is pretty confusing to me since there isn't as much info on kernels/flashing kernels like there is for flashing roms.

If you wanna custom kernel on stock, find one there that the kernel version is 3.18, like eXtreme Kernel for example.
By flashing 4.9 kernel on stock will cause issues. 4.9 custom kernels are only for Custom ROMs that comes with Kernel 4.9 already.
i have tried Extreme kernel and Moun kernel 6.2 version on srock pie both r working good but i suggest extreme kernel you can choose oc version and non-oc version

Thank you. I'm glad you tried ex-kernel. My idea was to use it to limit the clocks of my cpu and maybe reduce the number of cores… i'm a little obsessed with battery saving… i have no isues with draining, but since i charge my phone to 80% i'd like to get the most of my battery. Could you tell me if you perceived better battery life with that kernel?
