using for 30 hrs so far the previous version 5.9.11, and I like it, with gapps-kk-20140105-signed.zip coming from dehawks-CNJ1 deodexed- stock kernel, freezing chinese bloatware, I´m having better battery life than stock,
2 brief com.phone force close and lost signal, and one after reboot. but nothing major,
no xposed (to busy to install)
didn´t try gps yet.
cant install viper4android, conflicts with dolby service, (happens in stock too)
Display modes work, just hidden in hltesetting/advanceset/displayset.
Wifi and Mobile data works, at least for me.

the force close happen only when first boot but nothing major
For xposed you can use lastest wsm tools or normal xposed installer (but I don't know why you can't download module directly from the app need to go on the repository)
I'll look for viper4android :)

thanks for the quick review

Just another bug I found. If you try and attach an image to a sms by clicking the + next to the text and select gallery it force closes.

Nothing major but apart from that and the above fc it has been good so far and will keep you posted if I find anything else.

Thanks again :)

I'm having issues with headphones, they are not recognized only for second, will try to go stock and if the problems persist maybe hardware issue,
note: didn't test headphones until today so maybe is the conflict with viper

Headphones arent recognized when plugged in, connected this morning before going to class and there was no sound, so i open the music player and the music played on the speaker, no matter how many times i reconnect the headphones, maybe is a hardware issue, i´ll check this later today and i will inform, thank you for the answer.

You tried them before installing miui? Does it have a mic ?

The headphones are The ones who came whith The phone Samsung with microphone and volume buttons using them for a year now, no issues I tried them with my old s2 and they worked fine,
I tried some ewtto ear buds no microphone or buttons and no problems, the phone recognized them maybe it's only the ones with microphone, I'll keep testing,
I think it's a hardware issue

-The Headphones work in stock, but the buttons dont work at all(tried in 3 devices).
-In miui the headphones are not reconized (if i twitch gets reconized by a moment), i think is because the problem with the buttons (buttons cable disconnected=headphone recognized).
-New headphones work in miui,but the buttons are weird (play/stop button=volume up, volume buttons dont work).
-headphones without buttons work fine.
On the other hand Gps works quite fast and precise.
I don´t have the bug reported by Stabba, Sms attach by using + galleria works (converts to mms) no Force close. (both apn, mobile data and mms server configured for my carrier)
Edit: Tried with a bunch of old headphones with buttons, and none is recognized. Only normal(no buttons)
The only one recognized is a samsung headphone with buttons from a galaxy grand.

Success installing viper4android, with a clean install
Install viper before supersu, grant root permissions with the security app, install driver, reboot.
Viper is working

Hi
Here my first impressions:
absolute clean install removing ALL (yes all)
The signature of the system it still the one from Note3 (SM-N9005)
no pb with simple earplug I can connect and disconnect, and the sound is redirected
the keyboard is the samsung one and not from xiaomi
graphic bug; black or orange squares appeared in place of the numbers on the keypad and on the signal quality bar.
at leat one samsung app remains (the one for dual screen). it has since disappeared. the systeme must be clean up a bit more :)
I'll do a little deeper checking with my wife xiaomi Mi2

PS: i saw that the sources on xiaomi site (MIUI V7) have been updated 6 days ago. Do you use them?

Thanks for the port
