Honestly, I never thought ok google would work with screen off for non pixel devices... But it works for OP6.. Just tried it..
This helps in unlocking the phone will driving and directly making calls..
Apologies if you already knew this before but it's kinda new for me.. Just thought of sharing this with anyone who is like me...
Thanks for sharing. Can you share the settings steps for it.

Sure. It's fairly simple
Settings...google...search... Voice... Voice match.. (train assistant with your voice by saying ok google and hey google as per on screen instructions) and that's it..
Lock ur phone and try saying ok google.. It will unlock
Cheers
This is awesome.

But it can be a pain if you have a Google Home as well; they fight to answer.

Hahaha.. Probable solution would be to use a pair of earphones with mic and whisper.. Okay google..
Thanks ! I never used Google Assistant, but I may try if it is so easy...provided the permanent listening does not eat battery ! By the way, any changes in battery drain when using this feature ?

It's strange for me that this is news because I've been using custom romsnfor so long that had this implementated. It's a good feature
I think the idle drain will be about the higher than without it (this is what I have noticed) but it's not massive so definitely a recent trade off if you like the service. I have a few Google homes and they all pick up my voice but then it knows from which device to reply from based on what's nearest to you.
I've used this mainly for turning on Bluetooth and setting navigation whilst driving. Also asking questions whilst driving that I want the answer to.

I doubt if custom roms would make any difference. I have used oneplus 1 and op3 but none of the custom roms for these devices had this feature.. Interesting point you made about multiple Google homes devices and the nearest one reverts back.. Didn't know this..

If sommone Not Getting beep sound while assistant wakeups you need to enable Switch acess in accesability settings

No, the UK Mix 3 has the Global ROM on it, there isn't a "UK ROM" there's Global & Chinese.
Use Google next time, this is a unnecessary thread.

There's also the Xiaomi.eu ROM. I use the EU weekly ROM on my Mix 3 in the UK with no problem.
I'm pretty satisfied with EU rom but I only miss "Ok Google" function.
Thank you for your answers gentlemen.

That's just a modified version of the Chinese rom. There are only two official roms (excluding developer roms).

How's the battery life on Pixel Experience? I had it on my old Mi Max and battery really took a hit. That was fine with 4850 mAh, but with this much smaller battery, I don't know if I can afford to take the hit.
Also I've not seen any ads in .eu as of yet.

MIUI has ads built-in to its notifications and other areas too, it's part of the way they subsidize selling their phones at a loss (they also rely on people using their stock apps for data too). They make a big effort to block these ad in Xiaomi.eu though from what I've read.
I used to get ads for movie trailers in my notifications even when using Pixel Experience, I think Google is just as guilty as anyone else for this.

Google doesn't put ads in notifications. If you're getting them, they're coming from somewhere else, probably a third party messaging app or from the notification itself.

EDIT: Okay I just checked and it seems like it might have been during one of the times it was testing putting ads in its Google Feed. Fingers crossed they won't end up doing that long term :S

Yes, there's nothing there that proves that's anything to do with Google. Likely another app with too many permissions granted which allows it to intercept notifications and include the ad.

Except it opened a Google Feed card? I swatted it away like 5 times that day before finally opening it.
Here's two articles from 2018 about Google putting ads in it's Feed.

Well I don't know what to tell you. That was my experience. Google does push notifications of news, weather, traffic and other interests from the Google Feed, I'm not sure why we're debating if this was possible when the feed was also testing ads in the form of movie trailers. I saw it multiple times, I even held the notification down at one point to consider muting all notifications from the specific app was clearly Google.
Anyway, I haven't seen any ads like this in Xiaomi.eu.
Hello guys, Mi Mix 3 just hit the market in my country. I'm interested to know if it is worth it. Do the notifications work as they're supposed to? Are there any bugs that might annoy me?
Thanks in advance.

I'm pretty sure it's global. I might go and check it out tomorrow how it look and feels on the flesh. I wanted experiences from someone that has the phone. Do notifications work properly. And does it let apps run on the background properly. Is the battery good?

Battery life is on point considering it's a 3200mah cell, I have no complaints, I'm on the EU Rom which is based on the China Dev I believe or China Rom, all is working as intented.
The only little downside for me is the speaker ain't that great , but considering I have the R.O.G everything else pales by comparison.
Everything else is spot on and the camera is decent to, the price point is on point .....so again without a doubt I would recommend the Mi Mix 3.....:good:

3 things which annoy me about MIUI (which Xiaomi did on purpose) ...
1. Divergence from stock Android behaviour for Notifications. i.e No Status Bar Notification Icons or Expandable Notifications on the Lock Screen. Notifications disappear from the lock screen when you unlock the phone.
2. Smart Unlock only works with Xiaomi products. Google Voice and 3rd party devices can't automatically unlock the phone. Location based unlock doesn't seem to work either.
3. Volume controls for Notifications and Ringtone are combined into a single setting.
Thanks guys, I'm on EMUI now so MIUI isn't an issue

I've been told but cannot confirm that the panel supports up to 120hz with some minor color imperfections,
Fairly new certain modifying these files:
https://github.com/arter97/android_...t/dts/qcom/dsi-panel-samsung_oneplus_dsc.dtsi
https://github.com/arter97/android_...dsi-panel-samsung_sofef03f_m_fhd_dsc_cmd.dtsi
using this as a sort of guide for values:
https://github.com/sonyxperiadev/ke...1128c83#diff-9b749a956003bff1461097b8a7699809
And then building could do the trick but I'm not a dev so I'm not confident in attempting something like that myself.

No, OnePlus uses command-mode to control the panel states, while some dumbs OEMs (Hi Xiaomi) still use video-mode which can be manipulated from dtbo.
But imagining a hypothetical situation where that was possible and the panel could reach 120Hz or something higher than 90, no one outside of OnePlus knows the panel commands to make it enter into a "higher refresh" mode, so we are back in the same place, not possible.

what if you manipulate the rom? u could flash a Xiaomi or pixel based from, would that change the one+ restrictions? or are those command-mode controls not avoidable?

is not related to the rom but the screen firmware, and you can't just simply flash a custom firmware for your screen, as I said before, no one outside OnePlus has the ability to change/add a command for that.

Hey there,
I've been using my Realme 5 Pro with an ungoogled custom ROM for a while now, and I felt safe until I saw a video from The Linux Experiment (Videolink is with timestamp):
In the video, he mentions that he no longer wants to use a Chinese phone because China might force the manufacturer to install spyware. I know that The Linux Experiment is very skilled, but in this case I am not sure if he is a little bit paranoid. ^^
My questions are:
1. Is it possible for Chinese companies to spy on a phone with an open bootloader, custom ROM, and custom recovery?
2.1 I have already read that backdoors on the hardware side might be possible. Is this true?
2.2 How high is the risk of this happening?
2.3 What Information can they get with a backdoor on the hardware side?
3. How concerned should I be, because getting a phone without chinese influence is very hard?
Thanks for your help.
PS: I don't want political discussions. Just the technical view on my concerns, which are my personal opinion.

Is it really worth the effort? wouldn't a Hardwarebackdoor mean, that you only get machine language which has to be processed and sorted?
For a very important device like the phone of a president or minister that might be a practical solution but how much work is it to do that for a massive amount of people?
Thanks for your answer!
