GPS is working fine, and I actually installed MIUI8 global after trying the latest alpha in this post and updated twice through the update manager, to beta 9. The first attempt failed, but the second worked, you just have to let it extract after you download, then you should be good. To get GPS working you'll need to add permissions, and then force close, and it should work fine, I just did that and now it working properly.

What about battery life ? How screen on time do you get ?

[Xiaomi Mi 5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] AnjuRatty:
I'm curious about the RAM management ? Have anyone faced any issues ?

Main reason I left MiUi8 was because it clears my launcher from memory and reloads every-time I want to go to the home screen.
[Xiaomi Mi 5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] :
Ram management seems to have improved. No launcher redraws. However sometimes youll see a recent apps menu bug where system freezes if youre trying to load an old app from memory. Occurs very rarely. build 7.8.7. using battery saving mode
[Xiaomi Mi 5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] AnjuRatty:
That's wonderful to hear!

Launcher redraws got really frustrating in MiUi8 and the stock launcher was the only launcher that didn't get affected (probably because it's a system app I guess)

Any visible improvements to camera or performance?
[Xiaomi Mi 5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] :
By the way i didnt use any third party launcher and I'd suggest you not to do either. The new app opening animations are really cool(like ios) which can be experienced only through stock launcher. Eo you're missing out on a lot unless you use a super duper customised nova launcher. Also, i never faced third party launcher reloading on miui8. Which version did you use?

Camera looks fairly the same. No difference

Which phone configuration do you have 3gb 64 gb

---------- Post added at 08:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:55 AM ----------

Go from scratch, flash fastboot rom by use of miflash, flash zcx twrp 12 2016 version without su then flash 8.9 version
[Xiaomi Mi 5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] UCHIHA:
Strange, if fastboot flash success . normally phone should boot.

first, Format all partition with official twrp.

while flash, try not to use any tools.

just extract file, cd to folder your extracted file.... and run flash_all.sh or flash_all.bat if you using windows.

makesure your pc detected your phone in fast boot mode.

with fastboot devices command

[Xiaomi Mi 5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] sravans578:
I've been using miui 9 for a couple of days now. The overall performance has improved a lot , system is more fluid now. But still they haven't fixed the poor RAM management issue at least for my 3GB variant. Other than this , sometimes notifications doesn't show up unless you open that app ( this can be fixed by locking the app in the recents menu). Everything else works perfectly fine. In a nutshell , it's fast for sure and have some new features which aren't that helpful as far as I'm concerned. At the moment , I would still prefer a custom ROM because of the better RAM management and for a more stock like android experience.
