I will install custom ROM anyways. MIUI is trash. So that’s not an issue, I doubt they exist yet but once this phone comes into western market (if it ever does) I will obviously install pixel experience of maybe even graphene (with google).

EDIT: Also, I know a Pixel 7 Pro would probably be much better. But 250€ for those specs if just awesome. That’s my budgets so the better phone I can get with that price the better, and I don’t know what to get for that price.

Yeah I know. This phone, Redmi K70e is also Redmi Note 13 pro+ buuuut now I think it is also Poco X6 like wtf

I don’t know what is that but I suppose it’s related to “spying from china government”. So I will use a custom ROM anyways so it’s not a concern…

But then the boot.img is recovery? I just flash it and then sideload the .zip file? Just understand I don’t want to lose my phone and it’s the first time I do this i’m a bit nervous.

Hey sorry to bother you again. I was doing the process now, and just to make sure. The Pixel Experience recovery I need to install, are you sure it’s the boot.img? I was seeing some tutorials before and I see that boot.img and recovery.img are different files. What should I do? The ROM you provided doesn’t have a recovery.img

EDIT: I don’t know, I find a lot of inconsistencies between the build on github and the tutorial. It doesn’t tell me anything about the boot.img, my device has a/b partitios so I don’t know what I have to flash. I think i’ll just try with xiaomitool v2

Ok thank you. Then I just patch the boot img, side load the zip file and I’m done?

Thaank you. Hey, I noticed in the instruction that it talks about installing the Pixel Experience custom recovery. Where can I find this for my phone? And how does it work? Is it like TWRP / OrangeFox but specifically for PE?

EDIT: I noticed, I guess that it must be the boot.img on the github right?

This is not my phone.

“Camellia/n” are the. POCO M3 PRO and my phone. That is the citrus. I think it even has a different processor, unfortunately pixel experience is not available officially. I could go with unofficial but I’m scared I won’t get security updates and stuff

I have no idea how that’s done. It’s probably a nightmare not having playstore.

Although now that I think of it, you have things like apkmirror so I guess it’s not so bad.

I don’t mean you have to buy Huawei products. I just mean I liked how the OS looks. I haven’t even tried it and probably will never. For me customization is very important, I just love to change my phones layout colors and homscreen every now and then and just mess with how the phone’s esthetic can change. That’s what I meant about the launchers and widgets, it’s just something I love.

I obviously won’t buy a phone just because it’s very customizable. But when picking something like a OS or ROM it’s certainly a point to consider for me at least.

Chinese spyware? Certainly didn’t know that… I that the reason they were banned from US?

Apart from that, I just don’t really want to free myself from Google, Microsoft etc. I still depend a lot on their software and products, and privacy to that extent, while it’s certainly not good, I personally don’t mind it.

I respect that some people are more careful about their privacy, that’s how it SHOULD be for everyone. Unfortunately I still need and want to use their products, so I find it obvious they want something in return. The worst it can do to you is show you personalized ads… Or at least I think so.

Well, yes, I have never tried any Huawei phones myself. So I don’t have an opinion on how their phones are. But this OS really seemed cool to me when I saw it. Idk how much time has it been active, maybe I’m a bit late?

Yes. It seems that MIUI has this feature disabled (at least, I can’t find it), though I think there’s a developer option about that. Anyways, I’m thinking of installing a custom rom because MIUI is cool but has a lot of problems. I’ll update if I find the developer option I was talking about.
