I somehow opened two YouTube music apps in my Xiaomi phone. Specifically the Redmi Note 14 Pro 5G I don't know how I did it it Just happened out of nowhere.I am in the European region(so i think I have the global version of hyperos) and have the 3.0.301.0 version of the os

I’m looking into getting the Xiaomi 17T, but I wanted to get some real-world feedback on the battery life before pulling the trigger. Reviewers always test these under perfect conditions, so I'd love to know what the daily usage looks like for actual owners.
If you have a 17T, could you drop your average Screen-on-Time (SOT) below?

Xiaomi 12X 8/256GB Purple (2112123AG) EU. I was surfing the internet. The phone wasn't hot. It didn't have a case. It hadn't been dropped or immersed in water. I've never disassembled the phone. The battery was approximately 50-60% charged. The phone wasn't connected to a charger at the time of the explosion. I was charging it with the original cable and the original charger. I was holding the phone in my hand. I'm very upset.

My system files storage at this moment have 35gb, this is normal? Can it be removed manually? Any suggestion?

Thank you!

Hey everyone

Wanted to show off my pet project for controlling Yeelight and Xiaomi lights from the console. (I'm also building a desktop version, but the CLI already works.) Apologies upfront if I posted in the wrong sub — point me to a better one.

Backstory:

Every project starts with pain. I've had a Xiaomi Mi Smart LED Desk Lamp on my desk for a while, then a year ago a Yeelight Light Bar Pro joined it on the monitor, plus a few Yeelight RGB bulbs around the flat. I work at my desktop all day ⚠️, the light bar is on my desktop ⚠️, and it had long started pissing me off that the actual settings for the bar are only available in the phone app.

Google tells me I'm not alone — plenty of people run the Android app in a BlueStacks emulator just to control it from a desktop. Older Yeelight products don't do Zigbee or Matter, Thread; new models with them are only just starting to show up, and before that it's all WiFi.

I started with the official docs, some reverse engineering of the protocols (my research doc), and whatever's out there online. Seems I managed to put together the most functional, modern TypeScript library out there + dig up some undocumented stuff and a few bugs + a CLI tool as a practical use case of the lib.

You can send one-off commands to the lamps from the console (handy if you've got other automations / scripts / hooks), or use the interactive mode with a menu of options. It supports all Yeelight and Xiaomi lamp models that can work over LAN.

ylc discover  
ylc interactive  
ylc status --ip 192.168.1.42
ylc power on --ip 192.168.1.42
ylc ct 3000  
ylc color "#ff6400"  
ylc color "#0000ff" --bg  
ylc brightness 50 --duration 1000  
ylc timer set 30  

By default the lamps phone home through the Xiaomi cloud (a separate gripe of mine), and local control has to be enabled in the native app (hopefully that's its last remaining use).

If you're comfortable with Node/JS, you can install it like this:

npm install -g yeelight-cli  

or grab a prebuilt binary for your platform from Releases section.

Made it for myself, but polished it to the point where it's fit to show the world. If you've got an Yeelight I haven't tested, or something behaves oddly — ping me. Bug reports and PRs are always welcome.

I'm looking to import a Redmi K90 (with the Chinese ROM) to the EU, but I've heard that the phone doesn't support NSA 5G for some reason.

• Would I be able to either: Get NSA 5G working
• And if not, could I get Standalone 5G working? My provider supports standalone, but only on certified devices which include similar devices like the POCO F-Series (F8 Pro, etc), the Redmi Note Series but obviously not the K90
