Please help me migrate from China ROM to ANYTHING else - Redmi Note 8 Pro Questions & Answers

I'm on latest MIUI China ROM, 12.0.2 Stable.
Is there any method with a tutorial to migrate to the Global ROM or a custom ROM.
When I went from MIUI 11 to 12 via OTA update things were OK, but every since I did a clean recovery ROM update to MIUI 12 it's been a NIGHTMARE.
Thanks

All the problems magically disappeared.
I took a nap and tried all the things that didn't work like logging into Chrome and installing the Alexa app and they worked though I'd tried 50 times before and didn't adjust any settings. WTF

[SOLVED]
Tahnks to hsss1231
Solution:
I found a way to solve it.
1. root mi 5s
2. download 'buildprop' from play store
3. Probably the first 'audio.deep_buffer.media' in 'AUDIO' is 'True'
4. Change 'True' to 'False'
then the problem is solved.
Hey,
I have a problem with my Mi5S. Videos and audios does not play properly.
When I try to play a video or audio there is a strange buzzing sound, videos stutter and audios stuck between 0:00 and 0:01.
This is happening at almost all apps (Gallery, youtube, facebook, instagram...) only exceptions I notice are browsers and x-plore video player
I uploaded screen record of the problem. First I open youtube app there is problem. Second I open chrome there is no problem.
I first encounter this problem after I installed TWRP and LineageOS. I updated LOS one week later and problem was gone but it came back. I thought this was a bug of LOS. Ive tried installing dolby drivers. Ive wiped dalvic cache, cache and data. Reinstalled LOS. Ive installed Resurrection Remix. But non of them work.
Please help what can cause this problem and how can i solve this?
I found one person with similar problem in this link. https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-mix/help/media-lags-phone-browser-t3633544

Maybe new firmware can solve the problem? Search error 7 fix and flash latest firmware in recovery. No wipe needed.

You probably have the wrong firmware. Try flasher older Firmware. That's all mine was
Try firmware 8.1.4, Luk told that that is oldest FW that is supported.
Or flash 8.3.15 latest one.

And i have a last question for you, which rom on Android 8.1 do you think is the best for my mi5s ?
Im lost of the pletory of roms available...
Well they say that Atomic has best battery life, LOS is getting fix for restarts and battery drain with todays build.
Also, from recent posts best DEV FW is 8.3.1 or STABLE FW 9.5.1.0 if you are going to LOS15.1.
I am still on Viper OS, and I am waiting a little bit more on 8.1 roms to iron out small issues and quirks
I'm back unfortunately... My problem is back... When I boot my phone I've no problem I can read all videos but after 1or2 hours on, my problem come back ! I don't do one thing specially and I don't really know what to do now..
I tried to install the last CN firmware 8.3.8, tell me if I did something wrong, ty for your time.
NO DATA LOSS - NO NEED TO CHANGE ROM - NO NEED FOR ALTERING PROP FILE
You need to have a custom recovery (TWRP etc.)
1. Download the latest firmware (or anyone you like) from the link. https://basketbuild.com/devs/yshalsa...obal/capricorn
2. Flash it using custom recovery. THATS IT!
This does not effect your current rom it only changes some files (as you can guess from the size of file)
I have this problem on my Poco F1. I did all I could jumping from one rom to another, clean flashing miui roms to start with but nothing worked. What only works is an outdated version of a custom rom based on LOS. Also tried all the solutions in this thread but nothing worked. If someone is facing the same issue, your help will be truly appreciated. I cannot update my phone because of this damn issue.

Upgrade from AEX 4.6 to RR 6.0 (kinda lost) ?

Hello everyone,
It has been a while since I toyed with my Zuk Z2 and I totally missed the Oreo train.
I would like to update my custom ROM with the newest Resurrection Remix OS but some things are still quite unclear.
I saw a lot of talk around updating the baseband version to enable offline charging. And some users also recommend to flash a stock ZUI Oreo ROM before flashing any custom Oreo.
My question is : can I update only my baseband using (fastboot or TWRP) and then directly flash RR 6.0 using the standard full wipe ?
Does that make sense or do I have to take the extra step with the stock ROM ? If so : which version should I install ? 1.9 and then let the OTA do their job ? Will it lock my bootloader again ?
Finally, what step should I take to make this upgrade as easy as possible ?
I am sorry if those questions have been asked lots of time before but I can't figure a clear answer about all of this,
Cheers,

Since you are currently on AEX 4.6, I believe that the offline charging is not working. Even I am on 4.6 and I have tried few Oreo ROMs. I think if you are on 1.76 or 1.70 baseband, you are good to go, flash RR.
Question is do you really want offline charging to work? Personally I'm not going to go through all this hassle for just making the offline charging work. I have been using AEX 4.6 without offline charging for a long time and I don't care if my future ROM has it or not.
Yeah, you can flash baseband using fastboot or TWRP

Thank you for clearing my doubts.
I flashed RR, went smoothly, everything seems to work as planned except for the camera : I do not have the HDR option, and I think a lot of options are missing. Do you have any ideas about that?
As you said offline charging is still not working, and I do not really care neither.
EDIT: Alright, I installed "Arnova's Pixel2Mod v6" and I now have a working camera. Do not mind my question. I also noticed that you posted the link (on another thread) where I found the Camera mod, so thanks again for your help!

Using GCam? HDR option should be working, try the recommended one's from here: https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/
Slow motion is not working. If you have dark video issue, use OnePlus 5T Cam.
Thanks again for that link, seems like I edited my last post while you answered !
Here is a little feedback after ten days of usage :
My camera started acting up : usually when going through the camera's gallery the application will crash. I will try another Gcam.
I also noticed that my calls are not working. I can dial someone but when they pick up the call we cannot hear each-other. Does anyone have experienced this kind of situation ?
Everything else is working smoothly, better than under AEX 4.6, sadly with those two main problems I may have to try something else.

Question Banking Apps ??

I was using custom roms for months/a year on my oneplus9pro, however approx 3 weeks ago certain apps such as banking and a secure code app I use for work stopped working due to root issues, my rom was not rooted, however it just seems any custom rom caused this error. I've been back on Oxygen OS for the time being and I am wondering now if this has been resolved or are people still getting the errors?
Thanks
Can you supply more Information, with the aim of someone more knowledgeable helping you out.
Which custom ROMs gave you the errors ( so that the issues can then be raised with them ).
All custom ROMs gave me the error. I had it with Android 13 custom ROM' and then I'd drop down to Android 12 and had the same errors. I googled it at the time and saw it was a global issue for all custom roms on oneplus etc, but not seen anything since.
I have a European Oneplus 9 pro. I just want to know if anyone else is able to use banking apps now?
I use T-Mobile banking and it's working. Are you passing safety net on those roms?

I believe that is the issue. Everything was fine and then one morning I got hit by these errors. I flashed a couple of ROMs and same errors. But if yours are working then hopefully mine will too. Are you on Android 13 or 12?

I'm on 12. Google search Universal Safety Net fix and install it through Magisk. That should do the trick and also enable Enforce Denylist then go into the Configure Denylist and enable your banking apps in there as well. Hope that helps! I have the 2127 T-Mobile 9pro converted to the 2125 Global version.

Hi,
The easy way is download MIUI 14 from https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=337557 unzip the folder, start your F3 in FASTBOOT Mode,
Install using the "FASTBOOT" instruction are found on the Xiaomi.eu site,
https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/23-2-13.68319/,
If you are rooted i suggest to backup you apps and data with Migrate-GPE.
I tried MIUI 14 Briefly before switching back to the Amazing Evo-X rom.

Hi,
I am a patron on the Evo-X Early release group and have just been updated to V7.6.1, i think Xiaomi.eu roms look good but it lacks all the latest extras that come with the newest "Custom Rom".
I use my Samsung smartwatch as a trusted device to keep my F3 unlocked, MIUI Roms will only except Xiaomi Devices, i am also a fan of SMART CHARGING, this is included in EVO-X.
Aggelos, always waits to perfect Evo-X before he release them into the public domain, i don`t use all the bells and whistles that this great rom has on offer but it is perfect for me, i like to try other roms to see how they compare but i always eventually return back to Evo-X,
If you fancy a try you could always look at Evo-X thread on page 1, post 20.
One thing i have learnt when i have been playing with other roms and things start to go a bit strange, like magisk not playing ball, Google Wallet detecting root and apps force closing, is to return to a almost stock rom using a Xiaomi.eu rom and install it via FASTBOOT mode as this normally fixes most issues.
Last weekend after installing some different roms (4 in total) , Magisk started playing up and apps were also force closing even though i formatted the data in recovery in between roms.
I decided to return to stock and re-install a MIUI V13.0.9.0 STOCK Rom and installed via FASTBOOT, after 10 minutes of waiting it wouldn`t complete, i tried to install it twice but i was still faced with the same issue.
I started to panic a bit but then i remembered my "Failsafe" option,
the "xiaomi.eu_multi_HMK40_POCOF3_22.1.19_v13-12-fastboot" rom.
I installed this via FASTBOOT and it completed as normal and it returned my F3 back to working order.

Xiaomi.eu, since we don't have Global MIUI 14 yet, and you wouldn't use a GMS-less Chinese MIUI version.
I'd go about it like this.
I download the ROM from Xiaomi.eu
I use OrangeFox Recovery: https://orangefox.download/device/alioth
I flash the ROM in Recovery.
Format data
Xiaomi.eu ROM ZIPs are now both Fastboot AND Recovery ROMs. I personally always prefer Recovery, since it's more convenient. No PC needed.

Evo-X is definitely reliable/trustable.
I think your issues may not be ROM-related, but Magisk-related. The ROM you used before, doesn't matter. What matters is your firmware. Better to not use v14 Dev Firmware, causes the fingerprint-scanner to not work. Better to simply the devs' recommended v13 firmware or your regions' latest firmware, or Global.
Apps in Magisk DenyList can force-close, if you use a Magisk Module that 'cannot be hidden'. And Google has done changes, so that Vanilla Magisk causes issues for some people now, like me. Some apps started being unavailable in Play Store (e.g. Instagram). Fix for me was to use Magisk Alpha + Zygisk + Disabled Enforce DenyList + Shamiko Magisk Module.

Question Poco F3 and weird behaviour on A13

When I flash a custom A13 ROM, the adaptive brightness on my Poco F3 stays on 13% (only adjusts when I move the slider but then goes down later), and fingerprint sensor does not appear under the Security settings.
I have flashed full MIUI ROM both 14.0.7 and 14.0.4 and afterwards, followed the respective flashing instructions of each ROM (BananaDroid, GhostDroid, AlphaDroid, Evo-X) but each time these 2 issues occur.
On A12 custom ROM, I was not having these problems.
I hope someone can shed some light on what I can do to alleviate this.
FYI, I live in Canada and bought the phone on Ali Express which has Russian print on the box. I don't know if this makes a difference or not with the MIUI stock ROM I should flash.
Thanks for any help.
maybe install latest MIUI through fastboot and then try a13 custom ROMs?

I heard about firmware causing trouble with fingerprint scanners, but not removing the option all together, perhaps try multiple firmwares and see if this fixes it?
About auto brightness, do you have anything covering your screen? Maybe that could be the problem
Is miui working well?
Surely if miui on a13 works, then this should be a custom Rom thing
Nothing covering the screen but I reflashed from scratch and now auto brightness works better but still not how it used to be on A12 but it's fine for now. Fingerprint scanner still not available although when I went back to MIUI 14.0.4 and 14.0.7 it was missing from there too so I'm not sure what the problem is. I do have face unlock though.
