Hi guys,

Have you heard about Xiaomi phone before? How about MIUI ROM? wub.gif

Please refer here for more info : http://www.xiaomi.com/en/about

Xiaomi has been producing phones since last few years including Mi-1s, Mi-2, Mi-2a, Mi2s, Hongmi and the latest one Mi-3. Please refer here http://www.gsmarena.com/results.php3?sQuic...es&sName=xiaomi .

Without doubt, their products among the best Android phones out there but unfortunately their phones sold only in China.

Hugo Barra, former Google VP in charge of Android, has just made it official on his Google+ page that Xiaomi phone is coming to Singapore, with "details coming soon..."

I want to ask you guys, let say IF Xiomi phones come to Malaysia:

1) Which system languages should they include in their ROM for Malaysia?

2) Which language should be the default, and what is the order in which they should display them all in the startup screen?

3) What other features do u expect should come with Xiaomi phones?

I love to hear your opinions. Do reply here pls notworthy.gif

I'm asking this questions because most of us using Android phone and some of us already used MIUI ROM on their Android phone icon_rolleyes.gif

p/s : We already setup a group to translate MIUI ROM from English to Malay. Please refer here

The results of this Survey will be submitted to Xiaomi notworthy.gif

My Opinion brows.gif

1) System language maybe English UK, Malay and Chinese language (not sure maybe Simplified Chinese or Traditional Chinese) hmm.gif

2) The default language for startup screen should be Malay language wub.gif

3) I wish to see IR features in the coming model rclxm9.gif

Both is bundle for all Android phone. Android is multi languages.

But if people here do not use traditional Chinese language, maybe better if they do not put it for Xiaomi phone version Malaysia, right?

All Android phone is full with nearly all languages.

For Chinese, both must be put in, some people prefer traditional than simplified. Especially older people as they learn is traditional not simplified.

I see. Means that both Chinese language should be there, right? I dont think they will put languages other than what Malaysian used such as Hebrew, Polish etc

This is not true. Phones are customized per region. Like samsung have csc and not all languages are included. So android phone will not have ALL languages. Normal users that do not root might not get the language they want so its better to list it out and inform the manufacturer on what we want.
*
You are right bro!! notworthy.gif That's the purpose of this survey actually. From the feedback that I received here, the outcome will be submitted to manufacturer. thumbup.gif They want their products to be Malaysian community friendly icon_idea.gif

I never said all languages, but certain main languages will be there. I don't think any manufacture stupid enough only put 1 or 2 languages, it is not like the languages occupied a lot of space.

Most common language use in Malaysia is there already for China set. Nothing much need to worried and inform the manufacturer I believe.

Do u have experience using MIUI Rom before bro?

Oh ya, forgotten that you were the 1st one to void warranty.
Chainfire still didn't update his discovery on how to reset KNOX counter.
I'm afraid to help my girlfriend's Note 2 to update to 4.3 because of the implementation of KNOX.

Yes, they really customise everything 9696.
Hopefully Hugo Barra will really make MIUI open-source, so XiaoMi devices will get popular.

I guess KNOX is more to hardware config, not software, that's y very hard to reset . sweat.gif

There's a guy sharing his experience in XDA.
He took his Note 3 to service centre because spoilt or something similar.
At the same time, he also tripped his KNOX counter.
But when he took back, he noticed that the service centre resetted his KNOX counter to 0.
This makes everyone think that this is a software, just like our previously infamous yellow triangle.

LoL. I also like that bro. Sent to Samsung Service Centre coz my wifi cannot be used. At that time my KNOX already triggered to 0x1. After a few hours, I got back my Note 3, my KNOX already resetted to 0x0 rclxm9.gif

I think they should definitely include Play store and Play service. But I doubt xiaomi will pass the Google CTS test  hmm.gif

I think it's Google who did not want the Gapps to be included in the ROM. That's why after flashing ROM or any customs rom, we need to seperately flash gapps zip file

Hmm, they've their own market, don't they?
I know GApps cannot be bundled together with any custom ROM.

That's the only thing I don't like about MIUI.
1. Slow updates.
2. Closed-source.
3. No custom ROMs.
*
What do u mean by slow update? MIUI ROM got update every week sweat.gif

What i see, MIUI is a kind of Android custom rom unsure.gif or maybe i'm wrong tongue.gif

Yes any OEM wants to include gapps in their device must pass the Google CTS, that's why some OEM like Amazon and XiaoMi do not include gapps because they can't pass the test. But recently CyanogenMod passed the CTS test for their ROM on Oppo N1

UK or US English don't really matter.
Since our English follows UK English, then set UK English as default.

But too bad, OK Google in KitKat only allows US English.

Thanks for ur info bro thumbup.gif
