So, I recently bought a **Redmi Note 11** and it is good enough for me in terms of hardware. However, in terms of software, mother of god. It is the biggest pile of shit I have ever used. Here are a few bugs:
I use work profile to shelter dating/fuck apps from the main profile. This shit phone, however, doesn’t let me upload any pictures to said apps!! Understandably, people are not really interested in someone who does not send pics, no matter how much I try to explain that it is because I made the decision of buying Xiaomi. The problem seems to be with Mi Optimizations:
– Mi optimizations ON: When I try to attach something (even to imgbb.com), it says that my work profile is off. I click to turn it on but nothing happens. Can’t attach anything;
– Mi optimizations OFF: Can’t attach anything either, doesn’t work.
So yay XIaomi for ruining my sex life. I will have to wait for LineageOS or any other custom ROM. Any suggestions for a custom ROM available for the redmi note 11, or perhaps a way to fix the work-profile bug?
Just put your dating apps on your main profile maybe
Now that’s not very nice is it?
We were all kids one day, and I imagine you bitched more than most.
Ya, that would be an option, but I like to have it compartmentalized. Dating apps are a privacy nightmare. It helps having them on the work profile.
Any suggestion for a custom ROM? Though it might still be a bit too soon to go for a custom ROM already. I have had the phone for a week now. If only they fixed this bug.
As far as I know every profile has its private file storage on Android. /storage/emulated/0 is for the main profile. /storage/emulated/{profile code} is for the given profile.
So try to copy the photos you want to upload from the main profile to the work profile using an SD card for example.
Also if I’m correct if you install a custom ROM and want to have a different profile for the dating apps on that ROM too, you will have this exact same issue.
Edit: What about second space?
Ya, but even with it ON, I can’t upload in the work profile. It works in the main profile, but not in work profile. Can you try it on work profile?
This is not the issue. I do have the pictures in the work profile, I see them there. It is not an issue of not having access to the files. It is an issue of being unable to upload them.
Then try second space instead of the work profile. It should be in the settings under the special functions. (At least on my Redmi Note 7, using MIUI 12.5)
I never heard about second space. Is it also compartmentalized? I like having different contacts in the work space, different apps, etc..
EDIT: I just tried it and it looks like a very powerful feature! I still prefer the work profile I think (easier to check apps while in the main profile) but this is very nice. Thank you for letting me know about it!
Yes, it’s very similar to the work profile. Nearly like if you had 2 different phones.

Honestly, the more I look at it the more I think it might actually be better than work space. Is it battery friendly?
I don’t know, I haven’t used this feature for ages.
But probably not much, since for example you have to run a lot of processes twice (like Google Play Services).
Edit: I don’t know how much is that okay for you, but if second space consumes too much for you, you can try the system built-in app lock in the Security app. That way you will have your apps on your main profile but if someone has your phone they can’t open the selected apps without the password.
Oh, nevermind then!
Oh hey, don’t knock it back entirely and it has its function.
Just be aware since you are basically doubling up the footprint of the system.
Ya, I just removed it. Way too confusing and bugged. Couldn’t install apps, google play services were not working apparently for some reason, can’t have developer options.. More of Xiaomi I guess.
Use custom rom. Corvus OS for example. MIUI – it’s a piece of shit. Xiaomi learnt ho to make nice phones but didn’t learn how to make software.
If you rely on apps to have sex it was long ruined before that.
Womp womp
Xiaomi is made for honest people. Not for cheaters.
Hi, there are custom ROMs that might fix your issues.
Xiaomi 12 Pro has option under “Special features” called “Second space”. It’s very convenient since space seems to be fully featured private space. Maybe your phone has it too?
Yes, maybe that is the way to go. It would be nice, however, if this very basic bug was fixed.
Yes, someone else suggested that already and in theory it seems very nice. In practice, it is riddled with bugs, so I had to delete it. Not usable for me.
And why do you care about his relationship status ? He can do whatever he wants if it’s legal
Try Xiaomi eu
U will find that custom roms are much smoother than miui. I switched my rom as soon as i purchased my note 7
Can you tell me more about this? Is this a custom ROM? Upon a fast search, it seems like this is MIUI? no?
Indeed :(((
you the boyfriend he met in an app?
I’m a guy that doesn’t give a fuck about how who others want to have sex with
It’s the Chinese variant of miui , but translated with Google play services and has extra features
I think you don’t understand what work profile or other profiles are.
1. The first /clean install which ever you login is the main /root profile.
2. Work profile is a feature for office work folks where office IT can have control over the space. By forcing download of apps monitoring all apps chats and communication.
3. User profile is a second login account. Which will always be a non powerful and a standard account with respect to root profile.
4. Wheather it is #2 or #3 the data sharing is between profiles are very restricted and compartmentalized. This is done by Google and applies to **every android phone.**
What Xiaomi does special is it does dual apps – thing where it internally used work profile if you don’t have one . And created a user profile if you have one.
What you actually need from they way you are wording is
2 separate apps each having its own login.
At this point I would suggest you look at modded apps where package names are changed.
have you tried formatting the device? And I won’t think there r any custom ROM available rn for Redmi Note 11
No offense but you sound fucking stupid and the right time to delete that dumb comment was 2 hours ago and counting.
Stop being a judgmental andy just because people have the gut to use dating apps. If you’re too scared of doing that it doesn’t mean others should live by your life rules.
“Just flash a custom ROM”
– Albert Einstein
It’s not Xiaomi’s fault that you can’t understand how profiles work in Android.
The work profile has restricted and isolated access to files, to keep your personal stuff separated from your work stuff. You won’t be able to see your pics from there because that’s how it was designed.
This is natural selection on a whole new level 🤣🤣
If you’re gonna try a custom ROM, try Pixel Experience. You won’t miss anything from MIUI and you’ll gain a lot of “Pixel-only” features.
lol. Read my post and read my replies. I very much understand how it works and how it’s supposed to work. It’s a bug.
I feel bad but this is funny as fuck
It raped your battery? Jesus christ!
Yeah, man. You know what? People had sex lives before smartphones.
You might want to find out how your sex life ended up depending on the functionality of a cheap Chinese smartphone in the first place. I understand you’re angry but frankly it strikes me as slightly careless.
Being careless is not a bad thing per se, but if you choose that path you should do it properly and go all in and just have your fuck apps and all their full on notifications trigger a constant stream of flagrante delicto situations. so you can quickly harden your unapologetic sex fiend game. See also Dalai Lama’s advice to “fuck it”.
If you get a look or a frown practice not breaking eye contact and saying stuff like : ” oh it’s just my fuck apps, I’ve been posting some photoshopped dick pics this morning and apparently it’ time to reap the fruits of disappointment if you catch my drift. Which of the fuck platforms are you on BTW? I tend to lower my standards when I celebrate the arrival of a fresh batch of prescription downers every now and then, that’s why I’m asking”. It’s going to estrange some people in your social circles but you won’t have to bother with crappy functionality trying to hide your pleasure hunting activities. As a plus you’ll save both your and your phone’s energy, too.
As if there would be no honest people among the trillions of cheaters in this world. Also, some cheaters prefer a cheap second phone with an unattractive ROM so people are not interested in picking it up and see what’s on it.
What’s the point for OP to have two instances of Grindr on his main user account if I may ask?
He’s in the market for sex, not pixels. There’s a substantial difference.
You can use Island maybe by Oasis Feng… Creates a sandboxed process for apps you want in another profile.
Doesn’t rape battery afaik.
Edit: I’m not sure how Memeui would let this app function though. You can give it a try. Can’t guarantee it working 100%.
Yeah its a piece of shit Im waiting for the day that it finally dies (fucker has even the camera broken) so I can buy a phone from any other brand
For God’s sake no
Maybe your phone does know more than you and just wants to protect you from rejection?
This. Don’t just go blaming without any knowledge. None of the phones allow anything in work profile, not even a copy paste of text. If you really want to make them separate use second space.
Yeah, any Xiaomi Phone needs debloating/replacing of some stock software – even the flagships like the 12 Pro. Not only for privacy but also to drastically improve battery life.
bruh lmaooo 😭😭😭
>uses work profile for dating apps (thefuck)
>Complains the WORK PROFILE doesn’t work for dating
Bruh
Man, Xiaomi fucks you more (privacy wise) than any girl you could find on dating apps.
Give up on Xiaomi, if you want some booty get an iPhone. Nothing says sexy and rich than an iPhone. Well, at least to the Apple plebs anyway and there are a shit load of them and they are loyal to boot!
Those ones seems stable IMO. But if you really recommend PE more the official one is coming soon
Hoey adds bugs each release with features. Sure the ROM may look good. But his git looks real messed up. And derpfest was everything an open source project shouldn’t be- closed source. It was good that recently it was leaked. I would only suggest ROMs like crdroid, carbon, Omni, LOS. Who said I would recommend PE? More prebuilt pixel/Google apps in AOSP? No way. Those apps either run whole time (or most times) in the background in the name of providing you a feature/service (thereby reducing battery life) or crash more times in the bg (without you knowing unless you know how to read logs). It’s a shame the amount of good ROMs are reducing. I’m using Voltage OS currently. Good vanilla ROM without prebuilts and the lead behind it is good. My idea of Aosp is simple and pure. Fuck prebuilts, closed-source shits and kangs.
Edit: also recently The evoX lead Hoey was inbolved in an altercation in git where he first made baseless claims that Voltage lead kanged his commit whereas you can clearly see from the time it was committed, it’s earlier than Hoey’s commit so he was the actual one kanging. Also in the course of the argument, he made several racist remarks against a nationality and started abusing people when things weren’t going his way. Thankfully he got reported and his github profile got banned. Was satisfying to watch.
You’re complaining about MIUI and don’t even know what second space is? Lmfao.
Typical cry babies who’ll post their issue without even doing research to fix it.
Just stick to an iPhone if you don’t want to use your brain.

Wouldn’t second space suit solve your problem?

This is a bug, as I claimed elsewhere. I have pictures in my work profile, which I took using a camera app that is in my work profile as well. I can’t attach those pictures while in the work profile. I have access to them, I can’t attach them however. This is a known bug of having MIUI Optimizations OFF. However, it is also happening when MIUI Optimizations are ON.
I am very much aware of how work profile works. He claims what I need is 2 separate apps. That is not at all what I need. I need work profile to work without bugs. I don’t need 2 apps.
Regardless, I am thankful for him taking the time writing that reply. It might prove useful to some other person in the future.
It would, if it worked. I tried it yesterday (several times in fact) but it is also quite buggy. You also don’t have Developer Options in the second space (are the settings the same as the main space? Couldn’t say). Work profile is quite good honestly, if only they fixed this issue.
Second Space is a Xiaomi only thing, right? I would like to avoid using Xiaomi only features, since I will be installing a custom ROM in the future and don’t want to get used to things that won’t be available then.
I am willing to bet that this is a joke and should not be taken literally, but if it is not a joke:
Why wouldn’t Work Profile work for dating apps? You know that “Work Profile” is really just a string, you could name it whatever you want. Regardless, the issue is that you can’t upload pictures to any app, not only dating apps. There is an app called “this is a very serious app, for work only” and I can’t upload there as well.
Yes, it’s a colloquialism that Second Space unlawfully (….) did to my battery.
Gotta love how the usage of local slang makes bandwaggoners pile in with
>Jesus Christ!
Isn’t that a fairy?
wtf this is the best post i’ve ever came across in this subreddit 💀
Another sandy vagina I see, never mentioned any issues towards dating apps have I? Op stating an app ruined his sex life is the thing I’m after. Maybe op should grow some balls and approach a woman instead of blaming tech?
The circus left and forgot their clown apparently.
Keep the “ooga booga im alpha male” bullshit up. Nobody believes you but hey, your ego is pleased right? kek
Look how easely words get you riled up. Better get ya broom out for that sand. Why you bringing others to this, seems to me you the only one bitching about it.
There’s losers and then there’s you. You’re making an ego race out of this and that says enough for people to understand how pathetic you are.
I’m done. Stroke your micro penis elsewere, boomer.
Ok karen
MIUI has some minor quirks and compatibility issues. There are complaints about apps not working properly like “clone apps” eg. Island, Shelter. Shelter’s description says “Some vendor / custom ROMs may have a broken implementation that may cause crashes and even bricking of your device. One such example is MIUI from Xiaomi. I currently provide no support for such ROMs”. [link](https://f-droid.org/en/packages/net.typeblog.shelter/)
Have you tried another app which uses camera pics to see if it works in a separate android profile? I’m curious to know if only certain apps have these sort of issues.
Oh. I do use Shelter. I have tried uploading with many apps (3 or so) and it doesn’t work in any.
The OP said he didn’t want dating apps on his main profile, and it makes sense.
Ah finally a guy who knows all shits
Glad to meet you mate
You don’t get it. Not being able to attach in work profile is not a bug. It is not allowed for security purposes and no OEM can change this. This is by design in Android itself. Not sure why you are ranting without knowing
You don’t get it. You are wrong. You should be able to attach pictures in the work profile, as long as the picture is in the work profile itself. I have had other phones and it works perfectly in them. It’s a bug. It’s not a design by Android. Not sure why you are replying without knowing.
LMAO
Deepthroat by Xiaomi.
What apps are considered “fuck apps”..?
