Xiaomi mi 11 Pro - General Questions and Answers

please a question, the xiaomi mi 11 Pro will not be released globally? I researched and would like this information please.. a seller Aliexpress said he can change the language, because the chinese version has only chinese and english .. maybe flash another rom. he said that doing this will take another 15 days to send. saw a tutorial that make the global flash rom in minutes. work 5g in Brazil?

There is another problem, when you use not global version, chinese changed soft you will not have netflix on HD etc

Xiaomi Mi 11 Pro can be very easily converted from Chinese Version to Global or EEA.

How to do this? Do you have any links?
I am planning to buy Mi 11 pro CN since Xiaomi 12 does not seem to have an IP68 rating

Hi,
All information you can find at this forum but first you must unlock bootloader (official unlock through Xiaomi) and it takes 7 days. After that you can choose right for you ROM (Global - hevily based on Google Apps, EEA - less Google Apps, EU Custom - close to original Chinese ROM). I sold my 11 Pro but now I regret it.
Just buy it and after that contact me again. In meantime you can register to Xiaomi.
Regards

Why do you regret it? The camera it's awful, no Desktop Mode, USB 2.0 instead of 3.1....

Camera isn't awful - most flagship smartphones have similar cameras now, they all perform really good
Which global Xiaomi smartphone has desktop mode? MIUI+ is still in beta and only available in China (MIUI+ doesn't even have english interface)
And no Xiaomi phone has USB 3.1 - they all have USB 2.0, including the recently announced Xiaomi 12 phones..

That's why I've said that Xiaomi phones are awful. About the camera, I can disagree with you, even a P30 Pro that's a 3-year-old device is performing better than a Mi 11 Pro....

Sorry, You are wrong about the camera. Just got my 11 pro which I also had before and then sold it (just had to return to it ) In the meantime I had p30 pro, p40 pro, S21 Ultra, Find x2 pro...The Xiaomi is better than those smartphones, at least in my eyes.

Why do you say it's better? The zoom's awful, night photos are pretty bad, and daylight photos are not ok. Also, no Desktop Mode, USB 2.0, and software with bugs, you need to complicate with Xiaomi.EU rom to solve this...
I really hate that Huawei doesn't have GMS anymore, otherwise I would pick a P50 Pro/Mate 40 Pro with my eyes closed cause my S20+ sucks.

I have the Pro-version. Have also had standard Mi 11 and Mi 11 Ultra. For some reason I get clearly better battery life on 11 Pro compared to both 11 and 11 Ultra. Not sure why. I think the better battery life is the biggest advantage for me with 11 Pro over the standard Mi 11. The GN2 sensor on 11 Pro is really good but not that much better than the HMX-sensor in Mi 11. Sometimes I think that the 27MP binned photos from Mi 11 may be preferable since I like detailed photos.

POCO F2 PRO sold out?

Hello,
i want to buy the POCO F2 PRO, but everywhere it´s only available in purple for a good price, others are sold out!
Do you think new phones come into the market?
cheers
Personally I know there are global supply chain issues in every industry at this time. I'd be surprised if Xiaomi weren't affected as well. Blame lcokdowns etc.

The chinese version, redmi K30 pro also almost completely disappeared from the stores.
As an european consumer a six month product life seems a bit shorter than usual, especially as the poco f1 was launched two years before.
I always felt as an xda / custom roms user than we get the best value of a phone quite a few months after launch but if phone life is less than a year this is a real bummer for developpers.

The production of the Redmi K30 Pro (Chinese version) has been stopped because of shortage of some parts. Right now there are no plans to stop the production of the Poco F2 Pro (Global version).

General Bad news, possible no more Xiaomi.EU when Poco releases Poco UI...

Poco UI will be like a MIUI based OS for Poco devices like what Joy UI is for Black Shark devices.
Poco will be releasing the Poco UI for Poco devices at the end of 2021:
Source: https://www.gizmochina.com/2021/05/13/poco-ui-confirmed-to-arrive-in-late-2021/
I've asked on Xiaomi.EU forum on the possibility of support for Poco UI and it seems like they will likely not support Poco UI in the future.
Poco devices that do not have Chinese equivalent devices, affected by this change to Poco UI and will NOT receive Xiaomi.EU roms in 2022 and beyond: Poco X3, Poco X3 Pro and Poco M3.
Devices affected by this change, but will still receive Xiaomi.EU rom support in the future since these devices are based on Chinese Redmi devices: Poco F2 Pro (Redmi K20 Pro in China) and Poco F3 (Redmi K40 in China).
The Poco F1 will not be affected by this change since the device is EOL for firmware updates.
Aosp is what's important anyway
Damn, I just bought a X3 Pro.
I hope the PocoUI doesn't mean Android 12 will be difficult or slower to get custom roms for.
What`s the problem guys? We have so many custom ROMs, GSI`s. Just unlock the bootloader and flash what ever you want.

I agree... to me (but I may be mistaken), xiaomi.eu was mostly usefull to shady vendors who wanted to import phones in markets where they should not be sold... which is often a scam in the end for the buyer since they get a warranty-void device.
So, ok, maybe xiaomi.eu was the first "custom ROM" for Poco X3 Pro, but if you take the step of unlocking and flashing, why would you stay on this? You'd go to a really nice custom ROM....
Maybe I'm missing a point?
May be you`re right. But I really dont like MIUI/RealmeUI and other similar shells. I prefer the clear native Android. So this new does not disturb me very much.
Some people just like the built-in features. They don't want to download some apps or modules to get features.
Personally have 1 complete stock, 1 Xiaomi.eu, and 1 ArrowOS.
Both MIUI drain battery faster, even if debloat with root.
Put custom kernel in Xiaomi.eu, but still drains faster than ArrowOS with custom kernel.
Well I use Poco X3 Pro mainly to film short videos and edit them in Apps for Social Media.
Stock Cam Steady Video is very Smooth and Stable and so far no GCam got me that (Hope the Arnova build - still in closed beta - might improve this).
Since AnxCam Dev seems inactive I'm worried if I ever have the chance to get the Steady Video experience on a Custom ROM, for all the rest I would totally like to switch to crDroid and kick MIUI.

I'm planning to use xiaomi.eu which should have the Stock Cam experience with a few Extras (Dual Video, AI Watermark, ...). Need to check Steady Video in comparison tough.
Is the official EOL for Poco X3 Pro firmware updates known?
EDIT: ok I found this on mi.com/global "Xiaomi Security Updates"
We release monthly and quarterly security patch updates on Xiaomi devices for at least two years after product listing in the marketplace. Monthly and quarterly security updates will include Android security patches released by Google, as well as patches for Xiaomi-specific issues.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
So for Poco X3 Pro this means Updates "at least" until March/April 2023.
I also found this stating that a MIUI 13 update is possible for X3 Pro: devices eligible for the MIUI 13 update.
So let's hope Poco UI does not go official as planned at the end of 2021 or at least is not an immediate replacement for MIUI on Poco so that we will receive MIUI 13 and updates until Q1/Q2 2022 at least and so also xiaomi.eu Updates. That still leaves us with one year of uncertainty regarding MIUI/xiaomi.eu Updates.
By the end of this year, Poco has already announced it on the Poco Community forum.
However, it's not 100% confirmed that Xiaomi.EU will stop supporting Poco devices with Poco UI.
It depends on how different it is to MIUI, if it's anything like Joy UI then it's Xiaomi.EU is likely to drop support for Poco UI devices in the future.

You are right though. That was the whole point of EU Rom
A few months later, in September, this might really be the case.
The most recent POCO launches for F3 GT and X3 GT are on Mediatek (Dimensity 1200/1100 respectively) and I doubt they can even support Xiaomi EU roms.
In the future, we might see more Poco launches with this Dimensity SoC.

Which Xiaomi to replace my old Redmi Note 4X

Hi all,
I would like to buy a new Xiaomi phone but the choice is difficult for me so need your point of view.
Indeed I have my old RN 4X since 5 or 6 years now and would like a new one for around 300€
I do not know which one to choose because of so many answers on FB groups Xiaomi fans
I thought a RN 11 Pro 5G was a good choice RN 11 Pro 5G 6/128
But I receive answers for
- RN 10 Pro
- Poco (which one ???)
- others (without any problem if it is a good choice ;o) )
It will be for using it as a phone, mail, sms, social networks, daily photos (but I have a camera), some tools and games for around 300€
I am used to modify my phone with all extra I can find on XDA forum (Root, TWRP, bootloader, firmware, custom ROM, Magisk....)
Also need to find good products and help for case and glass protection
Thanks

Hey bro. I bought a Xiaomi Pad 6 Pro, 12gb ram and 256gb rom.
Its running chinese Miui pad software. After removing bloat (Some chinese apps) its absolutely the best ive ever had. Ive been using Xiaomi phones with miui for a while, and never used chinese roms.
But this one, on another level.
1) There are not too many issues i faced. Google play store was even pre-installed! (never had that before)
Its smooth, english works fine, can remove most apps that are chinese, and all runs fine.
Only thing i can think of, is that when using other launchers, like Nova, some animaltions/dualscreen shortcuts work alittle less easy.
But for most, the normal standard launcher (With a smart dock) works fine.
2) since I live in Myanmar,I get them straight from china, so cant say much on places elsewhere,for this version i paid about 450usd. cant match that im afraid.
3) not that i can think of. There is a Xiaoxin lenovo tablet, that has the 870 snapdragon, but again, where would you get it from..
If you have any questions regarding the tablet, let me know,ill do my best in answering!
I bought the Mi Pad 6 Chinese version. I unlocked the bootloader and installed the global ROM (Indian version). Extremely satisfied. I hope there will be more custom ROMs available for it soon.

i just read a guide on unlocking bootloader. it requires a sim card and a data connection to work. and this device doesnt have that. how did you bypass this?
Which guide have you read? It's simple, just use Xiaomi's unlock tool and wait for 7 days.
I appreciate you guys for the advice, I was afraid before but thanks for giving me the advice.
I like the tablet very much. Speed, battery life, feel, quality.
But MIUI is absolute sh*t, especially the chinese version with its preinstalled keyboards and bloatware.
You have to put the GBoard on it ASAP and disable / uninstall a lot of apps.
In the chinese version some messages are not translated and therefore displayed in chinese.
I'm currently waiting for the bootloader to unlock and then install another ROM.

CNA you please share a link to the Indian ROM.

1. Some of the messages will be in Chinese, but apparently installing morelocale solves a lot of problems
2. I bought me a pad 6 pro from tradingshenzen and it arrived in Poland in 10 days from China - I also know other people who bought from this portal. I had no duty or added tax.
The second reliable source is giztop gives a link to xiaomi pad 6 and xiaomi pad 6 pro (it's not much more expensive).
3. this is the best offer I've seen on giztop LENOVO XIAOXIN PAD PRO 2022 - but I don't know if it's worth it because previous versions were a drama when it comes to unlock and root, or watching netflix (problem with certificates).
If you don't want to have problems get xiaomi mi pad 6 there will be a lot of custom roms for this model. If you want to have a performance king, get a pad 6 pro.

The answer is obvious. Why will there be a ROM specific to a country where the product will never be release?

In my case I am just looking for a Rom other than Chinese one
Hi
Bought the Xiaomi Pad 6 (6gb/128gb) Chinese version a week ago via eBay from EU for £317. Great tablet, came with Google play installed and filled it with required apps. Only problem is that some system Chinese apps cannot be uninstalled. Am waiting until a Global rom is available and then I will unlock and root . Don't mind MIUI as have a Xiaomi Redmi note 12.

Question How to Root

Hi,
I would like to change my Mi 9 Lite by a Poco X5 Pro to have something better in term of performances and photo.
Is there a tutorial to Root it ?
And GCam is improving really the camera or not ? If yes, which one working like a charm ?
Thanks for answers before buying one...
unlock bootloader and flash magisk.
usually, xiaomi phones oversea version have more lightweight system than China version.
I dont know anything about google camera.
Body else to help me more ?
And IS it better to buy redmi note 12 pro plus or Poco x5 pro ?
Thks
From some websites I saw they're almost or completely the same(maybe they're cn/oversea version).
Oh look at what I found!
Redmi Note12 Pro Plus / POCO X5 Pro 5G redwood 12.27.2022
Their code are same but their system may be different. You can see some testing videos and decide which to buy
