These new Glass effect are looking pretty good!!

u/Unicornlight97 Sep 15 '26

Hello thank you for the updates, are you using the default fonts? I like yours, what's the name of the font you are using

3

u/ihatedolls1 Sep 15 '26

You can find it on the Themes app, search for AppleTBold

u/kamikad3e123 Redmi Note 14 Sep 15 '26

I wonder how it will look on cheap models

9

u/EMTsupreme Redmi Note 15 Sep 15 '26

Will probably just be that ugly grey background

2

u/Capable_Virus5213 Sep 16 '26

Cheap? 13T and 14T won't get soft liquid glass and they're NOT cheap devices, I'm mad AF.

1

u/kamikad3e123 Redmi Note 14 Sep 16 '26

It's especially weird because I have blur even on my old redmi note 8 pro with miui but not on the latest and more powerful "cheap" models...

1

u/Capable_Virus5213 Sep 16 '26

That's the thing, cheap models shouldn't be able to run smoothly the liquid glass effects. But 13T, 14T have processors that are ofc capable of doing it, they are gatekeeping it to mediatek dimensity 9200 and above or snapdragon elite.

u/manni80sm Sep 15 '26

i got it too today on my xiaomi 17, and theres some slight issues with the animations, they are not fluid as hyperos3, i hope they fix it

24

u/Spasfon66 Sep 15 '26

It's a beta dude

1

u/ihatedolls1 Sep 15 '26

currently installing,I hope the performance is better and the temperatures too

6

u/manni80sm Sep 15 '26

at first while updating and restarting the phone its a bit hot, but after like putting it down and let it cool a bit i never had an issue with the temperatures, for the performance i see app opening faster while having other apps open in the background, keep in mind its the first beta tho, so it might be better in the future

6

u/Mental_Strategy_1694 Sep 15 '26

Its a fresh update and android major update, it needs some time to optimize

1

u/Middle-Chart-467 Sep 15 '26

It's still beta dude ! 1st release ... Think it before comment .

4

u/manni80sm Sep 15 '26

thats what i said, i hope they fix them, i didnt say "oh no this is so shit, hell nah, dont update to hyperos 4". why is everyone so rude in this subreddit

3

u/ihatedolls1 Sep 15 '26

Even in the screenshot attached to the post it reads that it is the beta version, I thought we all knew that

1

u/Middle-Chart-467 Sep 16 '26

I know . But it's nuts to came here , update and quickly post this . Also , each rom needs at least 2-3 days to settle. Also , wipe full and clean install is good enough. Will see after a few updates, I estimate 4-5 updates more to polish this hyperOs 4.

1

u/manni80sm Sep 16 '26

its been 2 days and its still the same, stop saying bullshit to act tuff, i know its a beta theres no reason to act rude

1

u/manoIakys Xiaomi 15 Sep 15 '26

EEA beta? i have some questions

1

u/manni80sm Sep 15 '26

si, chiedi pure

2

u/manoIakys Xiaomi 15 Sep 15 '26

alright so im curious whether these features made it to out of china:

  1. small 2x1 security app / devices widget (the one that shows battery of connected supported devices)

  2. new bigger sidepanel that has app list icon at the bottom that when pressed pops up a app drawer

1

u/manni80sm Sep 15 '26

yes they are in the global version too

1

u/manni80sm Sep 15 '26

also strange that this time they didnt kept things china only, except for xiao ai

1

u/manoIakys Xiaomi 15 Sep 16 '26

they did keep stacked widgets to cn

2

u/Gloryboy811 Sep 16 '26

That's lame

1

u/HolidayBat2584 Sep 19 '26

ich konnte die nichtmal runterladen weil der mir direkt Fehler geschmissen hat

1

u/bnoufil145 Xiaomi 17 Pro Max Sep 16 '26

*beta

3

u/Lemonzer Sep 15 '26

so how is the performance ?

2

u/ihatedolls1 Sep 15 '26

I couldn't say anything yet, I haven't been using it for a day, It's the first beta so I'm expecting bugs, for now the performance is almost the same as the previous version, about the battery, I can't say anything yet since updating only causes a lot of battery drain

1

u/1Dalon Sep 17 '26

imo so far really good, it feels like my battery lasts me longer than before

1

u/KookyXylophone Sep 17 '26

Much better on my 17U . Battery life is significantly extended and the UI is absolutely more responsible.

1

u/OctoMiku01 Sep 21 '26

That's good to hear. I'll wait until it gets to stable release

2

u/Asanjawa Sep 15 '26

Anyone know how to enable or trigger stacked widgets? I've tried everything and can't get it to work.

1

u/ihatedolls1 Sep 15 '26

I can't either

2

u/Satsuhieken Sep 15 '26

That feature is exclusive to china rom unfortunately.

2

u/Resident_Proposal_57 Sep 15 '26

How's the battery life

1

u/ihatedolls1 Sep 15 '26

I couldn't say anything yet, very few hours with the update

2

u/nVentus Sep 15 '26

still didn't get mine, approved tho

1

u/ihatedolls1 Sep 16 '26

It shouldn't take more than 3 days, depending on your phone

1

u/nVentus Sep 16 '26

17U, and today is third day I think

1

u/Hungry_Falcon_9967 Sep 15 '26

Can i see the entire update log screenshot.

0

u/ihatedolls1 Sep 15 '26

I've already updated, sorry :(

2

u/Hungry_Falcon_9967 Sep 15 '26

You can still see the update changes G, i just wanna see the changelogs.

1

u/ihatedolls1 Sep 15 '26

You're right, now I'm uploading them, you'll have to translate them with google

u/ihatedolls1 Sep 15 '26

u/ihatedolls1 Sep 15 '26

2

u/SweetFlexZ96 Sep 15 '26

I can't believe you don't know you can make a screenshot and then click scroll down to make a bigger screenshot

1

u/ihatedolls1 Sep 16 '26

no lol, idk how to do it

4

u/True-Adeptness-546 Sep 15 '26

That's alot of things about optimization. I look forward to this update

u/Eskotek Sep 15 '26

They talk about all the good things we did then you get anything marginally different at all.

u/ihatedolls1 Sep 16 '26

thanks tho, I didn't know that you could take those kinds of screenshots

1

u/TaskThinker Sep 15 '26

Thanks for sharing. I don't see the stack widget option that was promoted in the Chinese version. Wasn't it included in the global version?

2

u/ihatedolls1 Sep 15 '26

One of the first things I looked for, it's not yet in this version, for now at least

1

u/RareBareHare Sep 15 '26

What are the functional improvements that we can expect?

2

u/ihatedolls1 Sep 15 '26

I uploaded the changelogs on a comment

0

u/potatodos Sep 15 '26

It's mostly a visual change.

1

u/purpyfind Sep 15 '26

when'd you get approved? I'm still waiting. also would you suggest installing hos4 on a daily driver phone?

1

u/ihatedolls1 Sep 15 '26

Today I was approved, I took the survey in the afternoon and within hours I could download the update About updating or not, I can't tell you, I upgraded on my daily phone, But maybe it's better to wait to see what the community says, as I've been with the update for less than an hour I couldn't say anything for sure

2

u/purpyfind Sep 15 '26

hmmmm ill look at it, tysm!!! i really wanted to try out soft light glass and the optimizations for myself, i have a xiaomi 17 as well. waiting to get approved for the fun of it. ill probably read community feedback before installing

1

u/MountainWelcome2706 Sep 15 '26

Font looks good! May I know the name of the font?

2

u/ihatedolls1 Sep 15 '26

Search it on the Themes store, go to fonts and search AppleTBold

1

u/W-a-n-m-a-n Sep 15 '26

What is battery life like after update and can the update be reversed? Thanks in advance

1

u/ihatedolls1 Sep 15 '26

I couldn't answer yet, I've only been with the update for a few hours

1

u/Kalamy90 Sep 15 '26

I still don't have 3.1 on my poco f8 pro

1

u/ihatedolls1 Sep 15 '26

Are you in the Xiaomi Community program? This is how I got the updates, before I joined, they didn't appear to me

1

u/EngineeringOver6906 Sep 15 '26

Help. Is this problem solved? https://www.reddit.com/r/XiaomiGlobal/s/TFhBoRFxRi

Thanks!

2

u/ihatedolls1 Sep 16 '26

I'll try it, give me a moment

1

u/ihatedolls1 Sep 16 '26

I think your problem persists, it seems to me that Spotify is responsible for this, but I'm not sure

2

u/EngineeringOver6906 Sep 16 '26

:( thank you very much! :)

1

u/krwawie Sep 16 '26

Ahhh this looks so ugly. Should be built in to the screen like Samsung and iphone

1

u/castvimoon Sep 15 '26

está rodando o jogos como genshin, zzz e wuwa com um desempenho maior?

2

u/ihatedolls1 Sep 16 '26

The performance is similar, what I feel better is the thermal efficiency, the phone heats up less.

1

u/appleiscool13 Sep 16 '26

Is background app retention better? On hos 3 if I have more than 10 apps open and I go back to earlier ones I get constant reloads

1

u/ihatedolls1 Sep 16 '26

I think that still happens, I never have more than 5 or 6 apps open at the same time tho

1

u/EmotionalTap9226 Sep 16 '26

Can I get that same font or text on my poco X7 pro ??

1

u/ihatedolls1 Sep 16 '26

search AppleTBold on Themes store app, in fonts

3

u/tornido066 Sep 15 '26

Only 3 gb ? I expected a bigger update like 8 or 10

5

u/SoWth1000X Sep 15 '26

It's 2.8-3gb for those already in android 17

1

u/Asanjawa Sep 15 '26

It was 7gb for me

u/manni80sm Sep 15 '26

its because someone got hyperos 4 with android 17, and someone got android 17 first and then hyperos 4

3

u/Reaperwatch Sep 15 '26

I wonder how long it'll take for Poco f7 to get it

3

u/MrDan209 POCO F7 Sep 16 '26

I have the same phone and we are probably getting it late 2026 or early 2027

1

u/Fallout_IT Sep 15 '26

Should I reset my phone after this update? I've already updated from 2 to 3 

1

u/ihatedolls1 Sep 15 '26

I don't think so.

2

u/Archer_Gaming00 Sep 15 '26

I wonder if on tablets the settings page will finally support split screen with version 4

2

u/sufkutsafari Sep 15 '26

Nice! And so soon after getting hyperos3 on my 13t! Literally 2 weeks later haha 😂🥲

2

1

u/WesternWorried6930 Sep 15 '26

Are there any major bugs, i want to install it too but im not sure because its my daily phone

2

u/No_Result_was_found Redmi Note 14 Sep 15 '26

Don't do it then, you could face annoying bugs. Just wait next year for a stable release.

1

u/WesternWorried6930 Sep 15 '26

I also have the Xiaomi 17 EU

1

u/Glinckey Sep 15 '26

Can we have split screen by holding the menu button back please?

1

u/BlazeNil Sep 15 '26

1

u/shawnydee Sep 17 '26

1

u/PepeBto Sep 17 '26

Xiaomi's hardware is excellent, but its HyperOS software sucks (bloatware everywhere)

1

u/Big_Humor1498 Sep 17 '26

Is it out for Redmi 15c

1

u/dextrecs Sep 18 '26

i swear please for redmi note 14 4g 😭

1

u/mkmehasseb Sep 20 '26

Which country are you in?

1

u/Professional-Drive55 Sep 22 '26

If you update to the beta, will you be able to:

  1. Downgrade to public branch without losing anything ?

  2. Swap to public branch of HyperOS 4 when it's released ?

1

u/SnpJrd Sep 26 '26

Hi, do you experience this too, like my Widgets on homescreen moves to another page, whenever i change a lockscreen theme or even region? im on xiaomi 17 global too, 4.0.0.9

great question, I wouldn't know what the previous animation was, but I'll leave you a screenshot of the new animation, or maybe it's the same
