Zuk Z1 or OPO or Xiaomi Mi4c

I need to buy a new phone and I am really confused as to which I should buy. I am aware that the Z1 and OPO have SD801 32-bit CPUs whereas the Mi4c has a 64-bit SD808... which would you recommend?:rolleyes:

CyanogenMod is based on the Android Open Source Project with extra contributions from many people within the Android community. It can be used without any need to have any Google application installed. You will need to provide your own Google Applications package (gapps). CyanogenMod does still include various hardware-specific code, which is also slowly being open-sourced anyway.

All the source code for CyanogenMod is available in the CyanogenMod Github repo. And if you would like to contribute to CyanogenMod, please visit our Gerrit Code Review. Your changelog is whatever was merged into gerrit.

How to flash Mi4c weekly ROM using TWRP?

The European Mi4c weekly ROM was released today, and according to the website I should flash the ROM using TWRP. I've managed to root and install TWRP on my phone, but what next? There weren't really any clear instructions over there, and I've never done any of this before and so I don't wanna risk bricking my phone.

So, how do I install the ROM? Do I need to wipe my caches or do a factory reset? Where do I place the ROM for installation?

Thanks guys. Sorry for such an obvious question.

Tried the links from MIUI forum and didn't work. Some users were also reporting touch issues in TWRP.

Finally tried this set of files from Willy Willyam @homeandroidapk.blogspot, and voila!

Difference between Mi4 and Mi4c?

So what is the difference?

I think I'll buy myself one. Just have to decide which one.

I've noticed that Mi4c gets better result on Antutu. Is that because of software?
