Hello, how to make this phone usable this end 2024, its freaking hot even using fb messenger and batt draining fast, been using this from 2017, hihi
This phone rocks Android 14 through lineage 21. Couldn't believe my eyes to see it booting up on the latest android. The CG4 glass is really really weak tho. The most weakest glass I've ever seen. Battery is shit but I don't know how this one just doesn't die.
Since 2017 until now (2024) everything is still working but the touchscreen is dead (mid 2023) even though the screen is still good. just replaced the battery and cable once.
I gave away my Mi5 only last year. Camera is still good. I only change battery 3 times(well first time was a crappy battery). I believe if only Xiaomi supported it with newer version of android i'm not going to change phone till it got destroyed.
It serves me well. I hope the new owner is taking it well.

It's one day early on one charge. Is It's fast charging ?

I just installed the ROM without any root access or magisk.

Changed the battery, and changed the OS from MIUI to Lineage. Wow.
A lot of finance/banking apps won't work. Wish we can still lock bootloader with Lineage.

The rom just look beautiful.
Mi 5, 08 Nov 2020I cant unlock it. It shows error 20091did you find any solution
PixelExperience ROM really saves this phone from being obsolete. Well, some extra features from MIUI might be unavailable here, but I'm willing to sacrifice that to become more 'lightweight' and smoother performance.
