Is thar bad enough??!!!

Found it on backdrops app

Another launcher won’t change anything to the stock ROM running on your phone. It’s just another default app to show your home screen.

I work in IT and i order phones for a company i work for owner/boss told me to avoid buying xiaomi and buy more “mainstream phones” like Huawei.

So they gave a Huawei phone to our driver. First thing they came to ask me is where are the google maps.

TBH I would really like it if they stepped up their game by removing that bloatware (and those trash macro cameras that nobody uses). They’re becoming a more “generic” Chinese smartphone company in some ways, but I still like their products.

That’s right, I saw it a few times for passwords. But I use autofill with lastpass so it doesn’t bother me. But I can see how it can be frustrating.

​

How often did you run into this?

Have you ever seen the xiaomi eco structure they do research in nearly every product I can imagine but you are right not 5g.

Ok I believe you.
I like to complain that in a large enough city in Europe, in 2020 I still have DSL.

Which rom did you port ?

I don’t have unlocked bootloader and I have reported bug through miui feedback tool

If you haven’t unlocked your bootloader , then all you can do is wait for next bug fix. Did you report this bug through miui bug report/feedback? Also try with miui twitter handle.

People told me Xiaomi was stupid amd putting out so many phones was bad business.

But hey, now i understand why people are posting in reddit and not being ceo of a multimillion dollar company.

I want that wallpaper!

I use Pocophone F1 and I didn’t find that slowing down problem, at least compare to other brands (of course every phone will slow down, even iPhone and Samsung S series, because apps update get heavier and more data inside the phone storage)

My Pocophone still running fine at 11.0.9.0 stock with default launcher and theme

I never had any issues with it. I’m a long time huawei user for many years and tbh pretty mad at the fact that huawei can’t use Google play store for now

Wait so the huawei thing was fake after all?

Interesting. Example ?

I have a mediapad m2 8.0 the huawei hardware is amazing. But still EMUI is real shit, more so than miui.

No, huawei doesn’t do it. I’m using a 4 years old Huawei phone with no such issue

The following are some points I would like to make:

1. Xiaomi are trying to become a cheaper and older version of Samsung in the way that they are not just skinning Android they are also trying to implement features which Android just doesn’t have in the core setup. This motivation for such a push can be understood from the user base they are targetting. This user base wants the best specs for the money, the most features, the least turnaround times when it comes to skin updates. Entropy in software increases as things are rushed and a number of bugs ensue. This is precisely what’s happening to them. One should know that less is more, Google, Apple and OnePlus are clear examples of the same. Samsung’s OneUI is also attempting to not reinvent the wheel everytime and has rather become accommodative of other services doing the needful leaving the manufacturer’s resources free for more critical core features. Xiaomi also needs to understand this.

2. For the people who make the astute observation that they cannot find any bugs, it must be observed what your idea about phone usage is. As an example it must not be required to completely unlock a phone just to see the contents of a notification clearly or to give a quick reply. It should be available on the lock screen without any fail. It is an AOSP default which shouldn’t be played around with by the OEM’s skin. If you’ve adjusted your usage to match this limitation in the implementation, then that doesn’t make the software bug-free. It is you who is proactive in bending your usage in accordance with the constraints you are provided with. This doesn’t make people asking for the correct implementation whinny bitches. They just know better and have experienced better, before.

3. The preponderance around impatient update rollout should be given a rethought. A balance must be maintained between good enough software and rapid release cycles. What we observe with Xiaomi is a company going too much to rapid end point whereas mostly neglecting the quality aspect.

4. Any reasoning along the lines that “but look they have provided features which stock doesn’t have, we can live with a few bugs in exchange” is found on misunderstanding about the core idea of software distribution. Removing bugs are and should be a priority. Features in response to bugs is not a sound software strategy. One can understand that the pressure from Realme and Samsung is forcing Xiaomi into doing it. It’s an attempt to always occupy some mind-share of the audience. But in this case is leading to frustration of the original fans who appreciated good software with slightly slower release cycles and better implementations.

5. The security app isn’t something which really contributes to the usefulness of the interface and should be rooted out. But, I guess the way software policies for ROMs are laid out in China, such first-party software to track usage is expected and even encouraged.

PS: Have been using a Xiaomi device since 2017 Jan, in India.

No. It restarts and then says FIND MY DEVICE HAD AN UNEXPECTED END

The phone restart occasionally because xiaomi find my device crashes even if it’s disabled

Loving it

LOL that’s exactly why I left Xiaomi… After MIUI 9 everything was bugs!

No but I know many people especially in western countries who import Xiaomi phones run lineage os myself included

Same here actually. My YouTube every once in a while just dies and I have to reboot my phone to fix it.

I work alot with phones, representing some brands.. And I always want to get the full experience out of the box. That includes stock ROM as well. Well all beside the case provided in the box. I tried many, now I have a kevlar case from AliExpress. Could not be happier.

The only thing I changed, i’m using Gcam, cause Xiaomis stock cam, with it’s “AI” features is carbage.

Edit: grammar

Love Xiaomi, however, can’t they just make 5 phones or so per year? Entry, Basic, Medium, Premium, Pro, or something like that and then provide better software support? Do they really need to do 20 phones per year?

I own a Mi 9t pro, floating bubbles (messenger) causes a bug: if I close it (move the bubble to bottom screen) and rotate my phone from landscape to portrait at the same time, my whole phone freezes. It is a known big with the animations and miui 12. Haven’t done a factory reset. Cause i’m lazy. And there’s no guarantee that it’ll fix the issue.

That’s the only bug I encounter about once every 2 days.

Edit: typo

No but I don’t want the hassle to manually download bits and pieces of google services and be denied a Snapdragon phone at a cheap price

What’s MIUI12?

Mine was working way better on miui 10.3.6 then it started heating after each and every minor bug fixes, I tried factory reset. Then my warranty ran out and voila, I switched to Custom roms and I never loved any phone like this one before, Galaxy s3 and iphone 2g included.

are u american to get afraid from Trump

Poco F1 with MIUI12 but running Nova Launcher Pro. No apparent bugs or slow down, so far. 22 months owner.

Miui 12 full screen gesture needs improvement SO MUCH JITTERS AND LAGS….. Improve software too XIAOMI…

I’ve never experienced any of these bugs. Lucky me I guess.

That happens to me too. I’m on miui 11 though.

Loudspeaker also stops in miui 11 on my note 9p. It’s really infuriating.

Yeah, as soon as Biden wins. /s

Don’t iphone sales pick up in Q4 because of the new iPhones? I think iPhone will be back on 3 and then Xiaomi will take third again in Q2 of 21.

Lag, stutter over the entire UI. Really sad to see that, as MIUI 9/10 was such an amazing skin.

MIUI 12 has a ton of potential to be amazing, if only it didn’t have so much slowdown and stutter.

Hopefully, they manage to optimize the UI for MIUI 13. High refresh rate displays are common now, they have to.

Realme is Oppo’s Subsidiary

I feel like they did this before a couple of years back too? I think it’s going to be a bit of a back-and-forth going on now.

This is both good and bad news. A Certain troll would try to lobby something against Xiaomi cause it beat Apple. This happened with Huawei before. They’re gonna ban them cause he’s losing value on his stocks on Apple and make an excuse about security issues..again.

It does you just need to install lineage os

I’m not trolling: what but are you experiencing? I’m with MIUI 12 from day one of Mi 9T and I’ve encountered maybe a couple of bugs in some months of heavy usage.

Huh, I don’t have anything to complain about my 9T (granted I don’t customize it besides putting everything in Dark mode and getting gcam). What are you experiencing?
