The most beautiful MIUI 8 has finally arrived for Xiaomi devices and so for our YU Yureka. So after MIUI 7, here comes my MIUI 8 Global and China Beta/Developer ROM for Yureka and Yureka Plus.

This MIUI 8 Global/China Developer ROM is based on Android 5.1.1 Lollipop. This Custom ROM is ported from xiaomi.eu unofficial MIUI 8 weekly release which is fully translated into English and is multilingual. Thus, this MIUI 8 is actually a Global version.

Remember this MIUI 8 ROM is not an official release from MIUI team; this is just a ported ROM from Redmi 3. And MIUI 8 is itself in Beta stage so don’t expect zero bug.

Disclaimer: This ROM has been tested and verified to be stable for daily use but there may be some unknown bugs. The development team is not responsible for any damage to your device or your information.

  • New redesigned colorful UI and fonts, and a new notification shade which comes with weather information, search bar etc.
  • New MIUI 8 Gallery, Wallpaper Carousel, Scanner, Camera, Calculator, Notes and many more.
  • Spam/scam message detection
  • System optimized for power saving and app management, so more power and smoother user experience.
  • Second Space
  • Cloned Apps
  • And many more...


Features Added By Me
  • Added Color Control

Some Important Tips
  • After first boot you may feel little lag but it will go after few hours of use. So don't panic.
  • MIUI does not support NTFS file system. So better use FAT formatted SD Card and USB. But if you have already a NTFS formatted SD Card then use Paragon exFAT, NTFS & HFS+ App to mount it.
  • USB OTG is not working directly through the stock File Manager, so use third-party apps like ES File Explorer for it.
  • You may feel liittle battery drain since it is still in beta stage. It will be fixed in the upcoming builds.
  • Do not flash MIUI Official OTA Updates, it will BRICK your device.

How to use Titanium Backup
  1. Enable USB debugging and Unknown Sources in Settings
  2. Install Busybox 42
  3. Disable 'Mount namespace separation' in SuperSU
  4. Reboot
  5. Then Titanium Backup Will work.:)
