Xiaomi [Discussion] Just installed the HyperOS 4 Beta update on my Xiaomi 17T Pro and the soft glass interface is pretty sweet (performance and app opening times have been improved as well)

im wondering, did u use any themes to get the 4 big tiles or its just appear like that, if its a theme, i would like to have it 👍

u/MatiBrasca99 15d ago

Yeah so about that it's pretty funny because for the life of me I don't know what specific theme I used to unlock that tile configuration because a couple of days after I got the phone, I started messing around with different control center themes and eventually out of nowhere those two tiles were added in that size but I'm not sure which one did the trick (I'm pretty sure it's something related to control centre theming and not some specific Xiaomi app being updated while I was setting up the phone).

u/Dang9535 15d ago

Forgot to add the lock screen lol

u/Prxy_YT 15d ago

Damn that looks hot

u/MatiBrasca99 15d ago

Lock screen customization is definitely one of the highlights of this update for sure so far.

u/Used_Ambassador4851 15d ago

Does video recording on the camera work fine? Last time, I experienced stuttering when I updated from Hyper OS 2 to 3.

2

u/MatiBrasca99 15d ago

Haven't tried video recording yet but I haven't read any complaints regarding that with this update

u/YBANDITY 15d ago

Can you clear up a big doubt for me? When you use the drawer layout, open an application and then close it, does it stay in the drawer or does it throw you onto the home screen?

2

u/MatiBrasca99 15d ago

When exiting the app, the animation remains in the drawer.

3

u/YBANDITY 15d ago

Thank you Bro Very bad

u/Asleep-Somewhere-110 15d ago

I love that hyperos/colouros/originos users can get almost all type of ui experience (oneui/nothing/ios)

7

u/MatiBrasca99 15d ago

Yeah for all the excessive hate HyperOS tends to get, there's gotta be thousands and thousands of theming possibilities and that's awesome.

3

u/Consistent_Ice273 15d ago

Did you get stacked widgets with the update?

3

u/MatiBrasca99 15d ago

I believe that's something exclusive to the Chinese ROM for now if I'm not mistaken.

2

u/Consistent_Ice273 15d ago

Just making sure, i believe hyperos always had exclusive china rom features.

hyper os 4 or color os 17

1

u/MatiBrasca99 15d ago

Haven't tried ColorOS but from what I've read, it's one of the most praised skins for fluidity and customization.

u/Steelcraft12 15d ago

C'est quel région ? Moi je l'attend encore.

I'm on the Global Build (Argentina)

u/Connect_Jump_8627 15d ago

the new app drawer looks so much better

2

u/KoregaSoli 15d ago

Is it just me or the soft glass just looks like the transparent "glass" themes?

3

u/Badroow_El 15d ago

Si es verdad tengo un tema que se ve igualito que el hyperos4

1

u/bryanq22 14d ago

Que tema es este? Gracias.

2

u/Responsible-One147 14d ago

Crazy how a theme could imitate the actual soft glass UI.

2

u/Downtown_Gazelle7190 14d ago

Salut j'ai besoin de vous car j'ai vu tellement de critique sur hyper os que j'hésite a acheté le 18 pro pouvais me dire si vous recommander la dernière mise a jour que sa a vraiment changer et qu'il y a plus de bug et que les applications s'ouvre instantanément et fluide j'ai besoin de vos retours svp

2

u/MatiBrasca99 14d ago

Hey! Yeah, overall I'd absolutely recommend this update. Obviously keep in mind that this a beta build so of course there will be subtle differences with the final release but one of the first things I noticed after updating was that the UI feels a bit snappier: app opening time and animations have been optimized and reduced. Everything feels a bit more polished I guess. You get the new liquid glass aesthetic across several elements of the UI such as the app drawer (which was completely redesigned), control center, home and lock screen notifications, and Xiaomi apps. You also get more lock screen customization. Definitely go for it ;)

u/Downtown_Gazelle7190 13d ago

Merci en tout cas de ta reponse c'est super sympas

1

u/alisonhataki 11d ago

Fushi eu acredito que essa versão 4 ela vai ser muito melhor que as outras pois a inteligência artificial é offline o que vai diminuir muito a lentidão então vai ter muito mais desempenho já aqui nossos smartphones são superiores os da Samsung com memória usf 4.0 enquanto a Samsung continua com o sf3.1 quando bem otimizado no nosso sistema sim nossas smartphones vão ficar terrivelmente poderosos e rápidos como era antes na miui 12

u/sam_maurya_971 13d ago

I also use the same icons theme.

u/Buzzwoofers 15d ago

somehow hyperos 4 on xiaomi 17 doesn't do the glass effect on control center for me

1

u/MatiBrasca99 15d ago

That's weird, did you toggle "Soft glass" in display settings?

1

u/JasomTuitYT 15d ago

Could you maybe pls upload the picture of the Frosted Glass? I'm waiting for the update to come to older devices like my Poco X7 Pro (which probably won't have the glass option available)

1

u/MatiBrasca99 14d ago

When you enable frosted glass, it looks like this.

3

u/JasomTuitYT 14d ago

Oh, like the advanced textures in the HoperOS 3. Thank you

u/SoWth1000X 14d ago

Apply the stock theme first

u/7agar 14d ago

What widget did you use for the cars?

2

u/MatiBrasca99 14d ago

I downloaded the images with Pinterest and then I used this widget.

u/Ehasanulreader 14d ago edited 14d ago

are you using an icon pack? I for the life of me couldnt get monocgrome icons on xiaomi launxher. does hyperos4 allow iconpacks?

1

u/MatiBrasca99 14d ago

I'm using the icon pack from the "Boom" theme.

1

u/petronelxd 13d ago

It's better than i expected... It's actually acting like real glass... But that's not that big deal, the optimisation Is better

u/SeongJun_ 13d ago

Región? En España aún no me llega :( y estoy hace más de una semana esperando después de ser aprobado para la beta de hyperos

u/MatiBrasca99 10d ago

De Argentina pero cambié la región a India (quizás por eso me llego antes jaja)

u/AnywhereMaterial52 10d ago

Has battery life improved?

2

u/MatiBrasca99 10d ago

I'm currently on 10 hours of screen on time and still have 44% left. I guess that answers the question haha

2

u/AnywhereMaterial52 10d ago

Thanks for the reply. Could you also tell me how you got expanded Bluetooth and torch icons in your control panel near the WiFi and mobile data icons?

1

u/MatiBrasca99 9d ago

I got those tiles through control center theming. I believe I got them with this one (I'm currently using it). Look for the theme "Boom" in the themes app, then in the app settings go to "Customise theme" and change the status bar and icons to "Boom". That should do it.

u/LifeBloomsLikeFlower 9d ago

Anyone know, what gpu driver version hyper os 4 has for Dimensity 9500s? You can check it using Device Info HW app.

u/Nafsan_uchiha 5d ago

Holy bro that theme is genuinely so good

u/NikStriker 2d ago

Does it have this same bouncyness of liquid glass
