Which one is the most useable as a daily driver? And when one so you use??? Thank you!!
I believe you answered the question yourself! 10.0.0.2 for daily stability.
Stable 10.0.2 is a nice ride...
I find Beta 6 is very stable. That said, if you want rock solid, stick with official.

I'm currently running 6.0 stable, but I want to try out some of the others. I wanted to know opinions on whether I should go with RC1, 2, or 3?
Wow. 60+ views and no one cared to venture an opinion. Guess I'll just try them and see.

Probably because your post should be in the Q&A section, and it's a bit of an odd question. RC stands for Release Candidate, so naturally the stable version is preferable over any of the RCs since it has the least bugs.
LOL what kind of question is that.
RC1, RC2, RC3 and 6.0 are simple different versions of same ROM, RC1 is first usable, but not fully stable and equipped ROM, stable is, as name says, STABLE. Use stable, don't look back for RC 1, 2 or 3...
[Offtopic]either Q&A or general. dont spam dev section with that. [Offtopic]
i would say its not a decision btw stable and rc's but between nightly and stable. i prefer nightly even though there are some (few) bugs
not entirely sure whats the difference between the two?

I'm a sense guy,so not much exp. with cm. My foggy memory believes that cm7(rc for release canidate) is ready for everyday use public consumption. Nightlies are built by(here's where my memory goes! Gimme a break I'm old!) a bot which fixes and changes things,which may or may not break other things. That about the extent of my knowledge on this. The experts on this should be on they're way. lol
I'm no expert but the cm7 stable is android 2.3.3 the cm7 rc-1 is 2.3.4 the latest nightlies are 2.3.5.. I recommend the nightlies, they are more stable in many ways than the stable version of.. The latest is #179

This is standard software development stuff.
"Nightlies" are like alpha level software containing the absolute latest bug fixes and new features for an existing program with little or no testing outside of the developers. Whether the various features and fixes are compiled by a daemon or not is irrelevant. Some nightlies are very stable with few bugs, some are bug riddled garbage. I'm currently using the CM7 nightly from 9-1, and I've found it to be very stable and only had one or two small issues.
The experimental releases are release candidates, which is just a friendly term for a late stage beta. Generally, they may contain more bugs than what should be released, but the developers released them into the wild because they believed the to be close to ready for release and needed more people would test them.
A Stable version is just that, stable. It has been extensively tested and either has no bugs, or has only minor bugs that have all been well documented.
Which should you use?
You've got a few sensible options.
a. Stick to stable releases. You'll miss out on the latest and greatest developments, but your shift will be as stable and reliable as possible.
b. Install every nightly as they come out. (they don't actually come out every night, we haven't had a new one since 9-1) If you get a bad one, which happens, just roll back to the last one that worked for you. You will spend a lot of time messing with your phone and will have to deal with bugs, but you'll always get to try out the latest and greatest. Just be sure that when you have bugs, you share useful bug reports with the developers.
c. Start with the stable. If you find there are things broken that you don't want to miss, go through the changelogs and forums to find a more or less stable nightly that has what you're missing and move to it. Stay there until there's another stable release.
wow thank you guys for the usefull information. I'm normally a sense rom guy so this is kinda a new ball game for me. I decided to go with this due to I hear its way faster and has more space .

What is the difference between these two releases? Im quite confused.
They both look as though they offer OTA, the Xiaomi.eu one is SafetyNet certified which means Android Pay works.
Which is preferable to just have as a stable rom to leave on my phone and not worry?
I f you want rock solid stability and don't mind having Android Marshmallow, I would suggest staying on Global Stable and waiting for MIUI 9 which is supposed to come with Android Nougat pretty soon

Oh cool i didnt realize how soon it was coming, just searched. Thanks for the advice.... it also seems like much less of a pain to just upgrade to that vs flashing something new and setting up my phone again!
What's the better option to go with thanks.
That is purely up to you! Do you understand the pro's and con's of running a BETA build? You might get the latest features...along with the latest bugs. If you can live with shaky software on a device that you may rely upon for very important daily things...then go for it.
However, if your device is vital to your communications as well as other important daily things, then I recommend stable. Of course even with stable you may get some bugs. I run only stable on my 7 Pro and I have virtually no issues at all. YMMV
I run stable as DD and have no bug's to speak of. But the beta is a good program...
Beta is usually a month or two ahead of stable in terms of bug fixes and new features...but ahead on new bugs also..
Hi all!
I been thinking about getting a custom rom on this phone ever since I got it (it's my second xiaomi, after my first one I thought it's probably the best to skip MIUI entirely). But since then I couldn't figure out what to get. Some say EvoX is the best, CrDroid has some cool features but can't find much about it being a daily driver, I heard lots of bad things about the PixelExperience and I'm holding out on LineageOS until an offical port comes out
Main things I'm looking for:
Camera to stay as good as with stock
Fast charging with all of it's 67W glory
5G
Privacy features
Thanks in advance
Logan
best in what?
how bout Evo x as your daily driver...?
I use elixir and its working great for heavy daily usage
Honestly? MIUI EU rom works flawlessly for me, fast enough, stable and has a few extra mods. Custom ROMs aren't what they use to be... Bugger all features and lots of bugs due to half-ass development and the fact this isn't a hugely popular device.
