After upgrading from xiaomi.eu_AURORA_OS2.0.6.0.VNACNXM_15.zip to xiaomi.eu_AURORA_OS2.0.13.0.VNACNXM_15.zip, I started having trouble with some paranoid-minded app that now refuses to run, complaining "unrecognized version of Android version, may have an unlocked bootloader, or may not have...

OK, this reasonably means I should refrain from using GetApps to update system apps. The gist of that FAQ item seems to be about not updating system apps, but: - It is the Google Play Store that tried to update Mi Browser and failed. - I still want to use GetApps as an app store for conveniently...

I've fastboot-installed xiaomi.eu_AURORA_OS2.0.8.0.VNACNXM_15.zip on my 14 Ultra. In the Google Play Store, updating the Mi Browser app always fails with "Couldn't update" but updating other apps succeeds. Similarly with the GetApps app (com.xiaomi.market), Xiaomi's own app store app, installed...

Is there anything simple I can do to assist with investigation using my own device? I can use adb & fastboot, but I don't know if you would need anything more complicated.

I observed that the xiaomi.eu HyperOS 2.0 fastboot clean installer (linux_install_and_format_data.sh from xiaomi.eu_AURORA_OS2.0.8.0.VNACNXM_15.zip) does not work when the phone is a Xiaomi 14 Ultra with official HyperOS 1.0 CN ROM. The detailed observations are as follows. Initially, my phone...

I was definitely not using a xiaomi.eu ROM previously and was using the official ROM, as I stated originally, unless you are talking about another reply than https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/hyperos-2-0-stable-release.74372/post-738254 I was also definitely using only clean install...

Were you flashing over official CN ROM with HyperOS 1.0? If so, my findings may be relevant: https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/hyperos-2-0-stable-release.74372/post-738254

I have an aurora (Xiaomi 14 Ultra CN). I suspect that I have encountered a bug or undocumented behavior while trying to flash this xiaomi.eu ROM. I suspect that the latest version of the xiaomi.eu ROM, with HyperOS 2.0, cannot be flashed onto a phone running HyperOS 1.0. devs, is this expected...

Thanks for the replies. Yes, I can now actually pay with GPay. I was previously having trouble with GPay showing the error message and TB Checker showing device integrity failure. It was with V14.0.14.0.TLACNXM.

On my 12s Ultra (thor) with V14.0.15.0.TLACNXM, I have installed v2023.12.20 (the latest version) of eu.xiaomi.module.inject, but GPay still doesn't work. In TB Checker, basic & device integrity pass but strong and virtual integrity fail. It didn't matter that I cleared the data of Google Play...

I recently started noticing that my 12S Ultra makes a rattling sound when I shake it even lightly. The sound seems to be coming from the upper half of the phone, perhaps somewhere in the region of the camera. I don't recall hearing the rattling when I first got the phone when it was still...

Good job on the 12s Ultra ROM release. I was previously using the China ROM on a 12s Ultra and successfully switched to the xiaomi.eu ROM yesterday. I noticed a feature absent in the xiaomi.eu ROM. I find the feature quite useful and wonder if it can be added to the xiaomi.eu ROM. The feature...

How does one check whether an unofficial TWRP is safe, say for someone who can program but is not specifically familiar with low-level Android stuff?

The Chinese phone is not Google-friendly by default. There are some settings you have to turn on or some apps you have to install. Also, did you turn on syncing for your Google account?

I think it depends on the app. I've seen banking apps that complain when all I have is an unlocked bootloader (with stock ROM). In any case, the hardware has limited support for non-China mobile channels, so it's doubtful to me that there will be an official non-China ROM (not xiaomi.eu).
