I’m ready to go. Today I received the Spigen case for my hopefully soon to be Xperia 1 iii. I have this case for my 1 ii. It is protective yet thin and light. I really like the buttons since they have an open slice above and below making them nice and easy to press in. The only difference comparing the 2 is the new one has the extra button on the right side and the holes for a lanyard are now on the bottom left instead of the bottom right. I attached a dsptch quick release wrist strap connector to mine. Definitely recommend this case.

[Xiaomi Redmi S2 Questions & Answers] t0rmenti0n:
I am having the same issue. Any help is greatly appreciated.

When I turn on the phone, the screen is stuck with the "MIUI" logo, no matter how long I wait for it. I even tried leaving it plugged in on a power outlet and leaving it overnight to only have the same screen the next day.

When I try to boot into recovery mode (Power + Volume UP), I get the REDMI logo on the screen for a split second, then the phone will quickly shut off.

When I try to boot into fastboot and do adb devices, "List of devices attached" is blank even if the phone is plugged in. Yes, my bootloader is locked.

I tried searching online for solutions; came across a guide regarding MiFlash. Tried it to no avail.

Is there any way to unlock the bootloader so I can flash a different ROM? I can not unlock the bootloader as it requires the USB Debugging to be on and the Xiaomi Unlock tool activation.

In indoor lighting the viewfinder on my camera flickers like crazy. I've toggled every option of HDR from on auto off. Rebooted. You name it. It almost seems like the camera is rapidly changing color profiles or something odd.

I'll probably factory reset or something. Just hope it's not hardware this ea rly.

GSM Unlocked device is compatible with carriers like AT&T, T-Mobile, H20, Simple Mobile, Consumer Cellular, Metro PCS, Cricket, Straight Talk GSM, Tracfone GSM, Ting GSM, Project Fi GSM, and other prepaid carriers. The unlocked device will NOT work with CDMA Carriers like Verizon, Sprint, Boost Mobile, Xfinity Mobile, Virgin Mobile, Straight Talk CDMA, Tracfone CDMA, Total Wireless, Ting Wireless CDMA, Project Fi CDMA or U.S Cellular. CDMA carrier requires you to purchase their carrier branded device only. Even if the listing says GSM Unlocked it will not work with CDMA Carriers. REPUBLIC WIRELESS has hardware limitations and would only work on USA Version device and would not work on International Version devices. Please contact your service provider to check fully compatibility of the devices & the network they operate on. International Version devices are compatible with GSM carrier mentioned above but would appear as not compatible on carrier website. This is because only USA version devices are registered on their website, However we have tested and verified them to be working on GSM network.

There's lots of good Nougat ROM for this device... I can afford the ones I see, but would be useless if I can't active it it

Any solutions ?

If you get the"package parsing error" then this means the package ( its files ) is corrupted.

[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] Droidbullet:
Sorry if this is a stupid newbie question but EU ROM and Global are not the same, right?

When you buy from Xiaomi, you either get CN ROM or Global ROM. If I am understanding this correctly, is Global ROM the version without Chinese bloatware sold outside of China and EU ROM is a custom ROM developed independently based on Global that can be flashed onto either Global or China ROM?

In other words, is Global version out of the box like the vanilla version that EU ROM builds on top of?
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] saisannihith:
So for chinese region = CHINA ROM

for EU region = EEA ROM

for India = INDIA ROM

for all other regions = GLOBAL ROM

these are official releases by Xiaomi for devices for particular regions.

And then there is Xiaomi.eu rom which is a custom ROM (not by xiaomi but by a developer from community). This Xiaomi.eu rom is based on China ROM but is made available for any mi 11 ultra user irrespective of where they live.

If you have a phone which came stock with CHINESE ROM you cannot flash EEA/INDIA/GLOBAL ROM without EDL authorization (its a development access for xiaomi service centers to flash ROMS). So as a normal user you cannot YET. But you can flash xiaomi.eu rom once you unlock the bootloader.

Now in the latest stable EU (12.5.3)
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] phibersg:
maybe it's cause they flashed a custom rom.. the xiaomi.eu is not exactly an official rom.

but if you flashed the EEA or IN or GLOBAL rom, it's fine?

Can you lock back the BL after you flash EEA or GLOBAL star rom?

[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] tensux:
I just bought a used China model that has the global 12.5.4 on it. I am using It in in the US. Could anyone tell me if there are any reason I should not want this EU custom ROM on it? and if not would I need to first need to go back to the china ROM before moving to this ROM?

I have plenty experience with custom roms on Samsung products in particular. This phone is not currently rooted. This is my first Xiaomi phone as I am upgrading from a Huawei p30 pro. I don't want to even soft brick it with so little experience with Xiaomi.

[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] Jhonxs:
I have the CN ver 12/512gb model.

I recently switched to stable xiaomi.eu

The reason was that, my apps since the latest updates, were not getting the notifications properly and I saw that they were forcibly closed in the background ( even keeping them open in memory, the lock function, didn't helped with h the notit ).

Since I switched to the stable xiaomi.eu everything came back to normal.

I can use all of my apps normally now (banking ones and productivity ones ) without any issues.

All though when it launched the first few original CN ROM versions were pretty good, issues started to appear after the latest updates and I couldn't work on the phone as I did before.

Good luck !

[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] xNAPx:
Xiaomi EU ROM is for those who want the functionalities of the China ROM but with all the adaptation of the Global market (Google play services) without loosing the possibility to use safety net related apps. This comes at a loss of performance and few bugs here and there.

I am intending to unlock the bootloader & use it

So please let me know if it's not a good decision

Thank you
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] hassanaliyeh:
It is different points of views from one to another, as everyone looking at one side of the room.

In summary to my experience, it is full of bugs as it is a modified beta rom, and also it is not reliable as it lacks in some points english language or locked bootloader. And if you didn't like it and want to return, you could face a really annoying partition selection problem just like my luck.

With Miui 14 and with Miui downloader app, you could get updated apps (from Chinese rom) working on your normal device and get best of it with keeping software as clean, reliable and stable as it could.

NOTE THAT, I AM SPEAKING ABOUT GLOBAL VERSION DEVICE ONLY.

I have not tried Chinese rom so I can't tell if you should switch if you have a Chinese device.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] Doush_504:
Well, I am currently on global rom (indonesia)

I heard a lot of praising about xiaomi.eu and that's why I am tempted to try (specially for the bloatware).

I think there are 2 options, beta & stable. I think I could go for the stable to avoid headaches, no ?

I tried to return to stock MIUI on Mi 10 pro & it worked (flashed official MIUI using TWRP) but I didn't lock the bootloader.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] hassanaliyeh:
Like I said, different experiences, for me the global rom on mi 11 ultra is clean as it could be, very minimal useless apps that can be uninstalled. And regarding returning to your room, like I said, depends on you luck on which partition your OS will be installed on. Most people won't face it, but for some who are U lucky, we are really unlucky and painful to return it to the correct partition, even you'll not be able to get updates and your phone will be almost frozen 24/7

Wondering if anyone here is having this problem.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] flash713:
This sounds like the issue people have had with battery connector. There seems to be a faulty battery connector or easy to break small piece. Many have reported this and have had to either fix it themselves, get another unit or pay to get it fixed. Search around you will see what I mean. I haven't heard anything about an update causing this. I have heard that there is a piece that connects battery to phone that breaks easily. I've read quite a few reports of this and how a slight drop can cause it to break and cause charging issues... Read one person put a piece of electrical tape on it and fixed it that way.. idk. That probably doesn't help much. I hope you get it fixed. If you think it's March update and want to rule it out install April update.
