Mi Mix 2 Face Unlock - Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Questions & Answers

Hi there,
so i saw mutiple threads and videos (most in chinese tho...) about the possibility to unlock Xiaomi devices under MIUI 9 with face unlock.
I got my Mix 2 3 days ago...so i can finally unlock my bootloader today but what do i have to flash for face unlock possibility?
Currently i'm on miui 9 global 7.11.6 beta, which doesn't include this feature.
So is this still in chinese beta, is it a miui pro feature only?
Can anybody shed some light on it?
Thanks in advance.

Works fine @mi mix2 with MI-GLOBE based on MIUI 9 Beta 17.11.16

emmmm. i'm a chinese and my English is poor but i think you can understand what's i say.
ht(delete this)tp://220.16(delete this)5.14.171/bigota.d.mi(delete this)ui.com/7.11.16/chiron_alpha_images_7.11.16_20171116.0000.00_7.1_cn_5650c0ea72.tgz
this one is the miui9 beta version 11.16 in China,and this shuld have faceunlock.
you must use TWRP rec to flash this ROM,or you can't use your phone(maybe)
and if you flash this rom,you can't get OTA push,you can only download full rom to update!
China version have many AD and unofficial APP, you can uninstall most of them
after all , my English is realy poor...if you can't understand,i have no idea

running on xiaomi.eu rom and using face unlock without a problem

Hi. Those versions are only available through the updater app if you have China dev or global dev ROM installed. Your device will come with global stable probably and to experience miui 9 and android 7 you will have to flash twrp and flash the dev ROM or use MiFlash with the fastboot method.

Hi! Don't know what version they installed. I bought this one: https://www.gearbest.com/cell-phone...il_sys&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=shipping
One more question: it comes with bootloader unlocked? Anyway there's tutorial to follow everywhere =)

If it's from gearbest i think it will come with global stable.
About the unlocked bootloader , i don't think so , but there are tutorials to flash roms without unlocking the bootloader if you wanna hurry flashing . The best is to unlock it officially and proceed after with flashing.
MIUI 9 - v7.10.19 - China Developer Rom .. That's the final rom they have released (until now) that I downloaded..
Probably it comes with GApps and Chinese 'bloatware' (I would throw them away with Titanium backup, no problem).
Does this have some problems?? Anyone installed this specific version yet?

Hi! If you refer to the post above you , yea , i've tested the china developer rom. It does not have gapps and has chinese xiaomi apps that can be uninstalled.
If you guys want to try the china developer rom , you can download the latest version from xiaomi.eu , it's based on it and has gapps. Also , it is optimised for a smoother experience and no bloatware.

My mi mix 2 is running miui 8 (8.5.5.0 STABLE) should it not be miui 9?

Doing research on the internet says it ships with the latest miui 9.
My phone has had one ota update since recording the handset.
Purchased through Wonda Mobile.
No, MIUI 9 is still in beta. So you are running the right rom version

Go to settings and tick automatic updates.
BTW. You can go to MIUI 9 without unlock bootloader.

No additional update for me.
I will wait for the Global, before I re-setup my phone.

I am running 7.9.27 Version and it works smooth. Chinese apps can be very easily remove. For global Version you need unlock bootloader.
I will wait till the official Global from MI just received the 8.5.5.0 update
I'm actually liking the China stable ROM. With the new updated Google installer app, it's super easy getting gapps on here. It used to be a pain to get Google apps running properly on Nougat MIUI.

Heya,
updating manually to MIUI 9 doesn't grant root though, right? Do we have to unlock the bootloader for sure in order to achieve root?
Thanks.
I've updated to mini 9 from the Chinese rom, when loading up my music I noticed it will now not play m4a but will play mp3. M4a wont even show after loading to the phone. Any one have this happen?

Xiaomi.eu MIUI 9.5.2 stable - face unlock

Hi everyone
I recently updated a Mi mix 2 from 9.2.7.0 to 9.5.2. (Xiaomi.eu stable)
The thing is I can't find face unlock in settings. There is nothing under "manage fingerprints". I asked in Xiaomi.eu forum but nobody answered yet. Swipe gestures are present though.
Maybe I'll have more luck here
Thanks

Thanks for your answer. As Xiaomi.eu is based on China stable version, that confirms it is normal and not a consequence of the dirty flash.

Switching from Global Stable to EEA rom

Hello everyone
I would like to know if is it possible to install the latest EEA ROM coming from the global stable rom.
I bought a branded version (SFR) there was an EEA ROM but branded.
So I've installed the global version using xiaomitool v2.
And now I don't manage to install EEA non branded ROM.
My bootloader is locked.
You can't do it without unlocking the bootloader. I wouldn't install the EEA ROM - while it saves 10 minutes of turning ads off, the global version has much better battery life and a fingerprint sensor that works properly.

The latest EEA rom seem to be more advanced as it is on 10.2.9 already and to get more updates.
Global is on 10.3.1.0. Neither has seen an update for several months, apart from an EEA version that aoft-bricked some phones.

The last global is on 10.2.2.
The 10.3.1 is not avalaible anymore because it has been withdrawned after problem of soft brick.

I dont understand how it proves that what I've said is wrong.
Anyway I can't install the eea rom for now. I'm still waiting for my bootloader to be unlocked.

note 8t 11.0.2.0 ota

my note 8t just had an ota update u.k 11.0.2.0 stable, has everyone else had this update.
Yea I got the update too, two weeks ago when I bought it in Germany (had MIUI 10 installed before but upgraded immediately).
But I guess the official miui download site has already a newer version: MIUI 11.0.3.0.
Checkout for the Redmi Note 8T EEA (PCXEUXM) as you got the EU version as well as me. The page says MIUI 10 but it is definitely MIUI 11. This version has a newer Android Security Patch level (December 19) and official theme support. I'm using it right now.
But there is also this page which got 11.0.5.0. I haven't tried this version yet. Maybe someone could give some feedback on this.
I also saw 11.0.4.0 floating somewhere on this Forum.
in settings on my note 8t it says miui global and not eea, iv heard eea version has less adds inside apps ? on my global you have to turn off adds in each app one by one, is it the same in eea, if not id rather have eea.

Hi. Can you relock the bootloader after installing Xiaomi.eu? I'm asking because i don't want to keep it open, will not experiment too much. Am mainly interested in default MIUI experience with all MI apps (dialler and messsages)...
Thanks.
