M11 is stable. No one reported reboot so far in last months. I've never had one of them too
[Xiaomi Mi 2] Mich2027:
Great thanks, I'll give M11 a try... :)

by the way which WiUi are you using? v5 or v6? which release?
[Xiaomi Mi 2] linuxxxx:
No one, cm 11+ aospa
[Xiaomi Mi 2] Obscurax:
I just notices contacts force closes in M11, but i'm not 100% it's because of that.

Can I flash M10 over M11 to test it?
[Xiaomi Mi 2] linuxxxx:
Wipe data
[Xiaomi Mi 2] Mich2027:
I'm using the M11 and there is no such problem here.

I guess your should wipe data.
[Xiaomi Mi 2] Obscurax:
Very weird. I did a nandroid backup. Wiped data/cache & dalvik and the problem is still there..

EDIT: This got me thinking, so I changed the language in my phone to English and the problem is gone.

It's a translation issue.

[Xiaomi Mi 2] falconyx:
Hello guys, long time no posting from me on the xda boards. I am glad to see that the Mi2 has moved here now :) I got a bit tired of MIUI so decided to switch back to CM. That being said, and here is my lame question, do I have to flash it to both partitions and do the same for the gapps package?..I am only asking because I didn't see it mentioned in the instructions/faqs but I am used to doing this with the MIUI roms (at least I always did so for the official releases and for WIUI too I think). Thanks for helping out :cowboy:
[Xiaomi Mi 2] linuxxxx:
If u enable tdb u can flash them in one partition, if not u must flash them in both partitions
[Xiaomi Mi 2] falconyx:
Thanks man, I think I will try the TDB. Let's see..
[Xiaomi Mi 2] Riichard63:
Hi M11kkaa and Linuxxxx,

I installed the M11 but I can't switch the wifi on. Actually I'm not using any sim card does the problem can come from it? Or have you any clue to fix it?

Regards!
[Xiaomi Mi 2] linuxxxx:
Disable tdb and flash it on both systems. Some times tdb makes WiFi not working on a system partition. Hopefully this won't be a problem for a long time

Or Mi3 and Mi4 too?
[Xiaomi Mi 2] CBpbxEcmecmBeH:

[Xiaomi Mi 2] Riichard63:
So for the WiFi problem I upgraded to the last milestone release, but the bug still here. I installed cm on the second system too remain the same. Each time I want to use Wi-Fi I have to wipe dalvik (wiping cache doesn't change anything) through Cwm. But I gave the phone to my father so he doesn't know how to wipe it.

Is there any solution?

Regards :)

I had an issue where my calls didn't work. No audio could be heard and the person calling couldn't hear me.

I had recently installed a lollipop theme from the play store. (This them had also interfered with video recording)

Uninstalling the theme didn't help though.

I was on a nightly from a couple of weeks ago so updated and the issue remained.

I ended up wiping and reinstalling which solved the issue for me.
[Xiaomi Mi 2] andTab:
Same issue (no audio on calls and others can't hear me) here now on all nightlies since October!!!!!!!

Any solution to this?

this issue has been discussed here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=57445197&postcount=61

install disableservice app

wipe cache of google play services

disable checkin service of google play services

reboot

in-call sound should work again.

before this workaround was known i also wiped and reinstalled everything (imho not themes related btw), for a while sound worked, then it stopped working again.

With this workaround i have maybe an 80% chance of working in-call sound when i try to call. Better than nothing!
[Xiaomi Mi 2] NightHeron:
Please test this:

First re-enable the disabled Google services. Restart your phone and try to make a call,then when no sound:

Take out your SIM card then re-insert and re-start your phone.

Go To: Settings/Mobile Networks/Access Point Names (APNs) top right three dots/ Click: Reset to Default.

Click your carrier's name--"Edit acces point" menu--APN Protocol--Change this from IPV4 to IPv6. Then 3 dots-save.

Restart and report what happend.

The updated Pico nook modular PA GAPPS has the same issue? How to check which version of play services includes the package? I use yourzgapps but it has been outdated
[Xiaomi Mi 2] gonewild87:
The problem is Google play services that auto updates after boot. You can uninstall updates from play service settings but then you can't use most of the gapps

Hi,

I just tell you my first 3 day-experience with cm11 (20150208) with my new Mi2S...

I could flash cwm easily. cm11 flashed. The minimal (20140105) gapps installed. The system doesn't start... just cyan logo turns around and around... I have read the log and realized there is no place in /system to install cm11+gapps. I have extended the system to 815MB (decreased system1) and everything went well.

After a day the phone call had muted randomly. Sometimes reboot helped, sometimes wipe cache helped. I found the article about the mute bug, so I disabled Google play checkinService and its receivers. The mute problem disappeared now.

I realized the wifi goes down sometimes and I can't switch on again... (reboot always helps) - is it a known bug?

Battery percent sometimes not smooth. 66%..65%..64%..61% - some jump happened :)

Great phone, very snappy, big mem. I can't wait the stable cm12! :)

best regards, Gabor

[Xiaomi Mi 2] cogano:
I had the issue on two mi2s phones for about 4 months. Following the advice of someone on CM12 thread, I flashed the modem (NON-HLOS.bin) and on my own initiative also the spl1, spl2, spl3, rpm from the newest MIUIv6 for Mi2s and things seem to be okay now.

Interestingly, even if I enable any and all of "Checkin" services and broadcast receivers for Google Play Services and Google Play Framework, majority of them get automatically disabled again when I check later. However, some stay enabled and now also the Android Device Manager (search, lock, ring, wipe remotely) works again.

Tested for about a week now and no issues.

P.S. I use the single partition layout and flashed the binary blobs (extracted from MIUIv6 ROM) manually with fastboot, then wiped cache and dalvik cache in TWRP - i.e. w/o reinstalling CM11 at all.
[Xiaomi Mi 2] cogano:
/storage/sdcard0 dir&file permissions vs restore from backup

Hi,

I somehow lost my mind and decided to test the Google's remote wipe functionality (it works!) on my Mi2s single partition layout with CM11. Unfortunately, the restore from backup was a bit more difficult than I expected and I still have to resolve some issues.

I spent some time studying the concept of sandbox/per app permissions for files on sdcard0 (in CM11 it is referred to as EXTERNAL_STORAGE) and can see that the permissions of dirs on my sdcard0 are a bit inconsistent, at least compared to the linked article:

root@aries:/ # ls /mnt/media_rw/sdcard0 -la | grep -E "DCIM|Download"
drwxrwxrwx root root 2015-05-28 07:34 DCIM
drwxrwxr-x media_rw media_rw 2015-05-28 13:58 Download

This is probably due to the fact that i) I used rsync to backup the sdcard w/o keeping the UID and GID and ii) I restored partially via unzip (no file mods preserved) and via adb push in TWRP instead in running CM11.

Would some of you guys volunteer and tell me what the UID & GID and perms of the following locations are? I.e. run the two following commands in adb shell or ssh as root:

root@aries:/ # ls -la /storage/sdcard0 /mnt/media_rw/sdcard0 | grep -E "Android|DCIM|data"
drwxrwxr-x root sdcard_rw 2015-05-27 19:00 Android
drwxrwxr-x root sdcard_rw 2015-05-28 07:34 DCIM
drwxrwxr-x root sdcard_rw 2015-05-27 19:42 data
drwxrwxrwx root root 2015-05-27 19:00 Android
drwxrwxrwx root root 2015-05-28 07:34 DCIM
drwxrwxrwx root root 2015-05-27 19:42 data

root@aries:/ # ls -la /storage /mnt/media_rw
drwxrwxr-x root sdcard_rw 2015-05-28 13:58 sdcard0
drwxrwxr-x system system 2015-05-27 20:32 usbdisk
drwxrwxrwx root root 2015-05-28 13:58 sdcard0
drwx------ media_rw media_rw 2015-05-27 20:32 usbdisk

Next time, I should probably use a backup & restore strategy, which would keep both UID/GID and perms - i.e. tar instead of rsync. (Which isn't as great.)
[Xiaomi Mi 2] T3sla:
What are spl1-3 and what are the cmd commands to flash them?
[Xiaomi Mi 2] cogano:
A typo, sorry: it should have been sbl. The greatest surveilance technology of all the times called Google told me these are secondary boot loaders for hardware stuff, possibly by Qualcomm in our case. What I care more about is that a standard 3rd party ROM (CM11) does not flash these, hence any update must be taken from the original vendor's ROM updates.

The commands to flash are in Miikkaa's scripts (flashtools: e.g. aries_core_recovery.zip). I am on linux and use a single partition layout on my Mi2s, hence the commands would be:

[god@home x]$ unzip xiaomi.eu_multi_aries_5.5.15_MIUIv6-5.0.zip NON-HLOS.bin sbl1.mbn sbl2.mbn sbl3.mbn rpm.mbn
Archive: xiaomi.eu_multi_aries_5.5.15_MIUIv6-5.0.zip
signed by SignApk
inflating: NON-HLOS.bin
inflating: rpm.mbn
inflating: sbl1.mbn
inflating: sbl2.mbn
inflating: sbl3.mbn

Reboot to bootloader or fastboot mode and connect the phone to USB,

[god@home x]$ fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
[god@home x]$ fastboot flash sbl1 sbl1.mbn
[god@home x]$ fastboot flash sbl2 sbl2.mbn
[god@home x]$ fastboot flash sbl3 sbl3.mbn
[god@home x]$ fastboot flash rpm rpm.mbn

Should you use the dual boot partition layout on Mi2s, there would be a slight difference in the first command:

[god@home x]$ fastboot flash modem+modem1 NON-HLOS.bin

Flashing the blobs makes sense only if they differ from the current ones: e.g. I recall having flashed those included in Miikkaa's flashtools (January 2015) and therefore compared MD5 hashes with their equivalents in MIUIv6 ROM. They differed (possibly with the exception of rpm.mbn, I do not remember now). Flashing tz.mbn (Trusted Zone data, whatever it means) might not hurt either.
[Xiaomi Mi 2] RadarNyan:
Hi everyone, I just flashed back to official MIUI today (using MiFlash with flashall.bat - restored partition table) and tried Ivan's AOSP 5.1.1.

Now I'm kind of wanna go back to KitKat (CM11) for a number of reasons, but there's one problem - my partition table has changed to something like this:

179 23 524288 mmcblk0p23 <- system1

179 24 524288 mmcblk0p24 <- system2

179 25 393216 mmcblk0p25 <- cache

179 26 13619183 mmcblk0p26 <- the merged partition, for both /data and /sdcard

Will CM11 work on this layout or I have to go back to old partition style (separated /data and /sdcard)?

Hey guys, anybody using Apple Earpods with CM11 on Mi2S?

Headphones and middle button work as expected, but mic is deaf during phone calls. I found an issue in [MENTION=3530648]m11kkaa[/MENTION]'s GitHub from times when CM11 was still unofficial:

https://github.com/M1cha/android_device_xiaomi_aries/issues/24

There were some troubles in the early days with HAL, but I guess this should have been resolved and pretty much stable. For the time being, I do not feel like experimenting with CM12 (need to modify partition layout, various troubles with camera, ...).

What is your experience with the Apple earpods? Does it work for anyone?

Garbage battery life...I mean just pathetic. Yet it's so beautiful... How did this go wrong?

That stuff aside. Is the watch worth getting? (Serious)
[Moto 360] tsy87:
I dunno man, it sounds to me like the battery, although not amazing, is not as bad as initially reported.

As with any tech device, the first couple charges are not at its peak performance.

As for me, the first one I bought sold on ebay so I'm gonna get another to keep, for free!
[Moto 360] Locklear308:
Free?

I mean... How can they claim 24 hours of battery? the best I am seeing is like 9.
[Moto 360] tsy87:
I sold the first one I got for 500 so its essentially free to me if i buy another one.
[Moto 360] spitefulrain:
Battery has lasted me since 5am this morning, it is now 5:30 pm here, and I still have 26%. Good enough for me. I have loved every second of it, and highly recommend it.
[Moto 360] Locklear308:
Are you a lite or heavy user?
[Moto 360] droidkevlar:
I have only had it for 24 hours total. I have screen off. Off charger since 615AM today and its now 240PM. Moderate use, playing with faces, reading and sending about 20msgs total...reading news on it....and its at 44%. I am going to give it a full week before I make up my mind on it. If it can go a full day, then I am happy with it. I knew going in it wasnt going to be 2+ days of usage. Its not a Pebble. It has an AMAZING screen.

PS. Even with the screen off, I have had 10+ people ask me what watch that is. It is a beautiful watch. And some of the people asking having 10k+ watches that they are wearing and said it looked better than theirs. Imagine once some better faces come out for it.
[Moto 360] spitefulrain:
Probably somewhere between. I'm a huge clock watcher, so I check frequently. And there was a fair bit of showing off today too ;)
[Moto 360] Locklear308:
I shall get one...BUT IF THY'S BATTERY SUCKETH...It shall goeth back.
[Moto 360] daijizai:
Battery sucks if you drive or cause the acelerometer to pop constantly. Take your watch off before you drive until they have a car mode. Driving 3 hours is the only way I killed it within 16 hours.
[Moto 360] knoxploration:
I'm asking myself this question too, and I'm tending towards "No." Motorola need to have a very quick rethink, and rework this thing with a CPU that is on a newer process, and preferably a higher charge-density on the battery pack too.

Shoving a five-year-old, inefficient 45nm processor from 2009 (http://newscenter.ti.com/index.php?s=32851&item=125993) into a 2014-15 season smartwatch was a terrible, terrible idea. We should be on a 22nm or perhaps even a 14nm process by now. 45nm is a 2007 process, and it's hopelessly inefficient compared to today's tech.

There's a reason we didn't have smartwatches in 2007-2009, and making one in 2014 with technology from then is insanity.
[Moto 360] pfroo40:
The SoC is only one component in what is a cohesive design. Is it a weak spot? Sure. Is it a deal breaker? Maybe. I'll have to wait til mine gets here to give it a good testing and see how it works for my lifestyle. But from what the majority of people are saying, the way I will likely use it, I'll get plenty of battery life and a quality, smooth user experience even with the old SoC.

So, seems to me, if my needs are met as a consumer it doesn't matter much what timestamp is on the chip.
[Moto 360] knoxploration:
Battery life from most user reports and early reviews is pretty dismal, and that's when the watch is brand new. Unless you plan on replacing it every 12 months, you need to be thinking about battery life not now, but once the battery has degraded for 18 months or two years -- by which time you're going to be needing to recharge in the middle of the day.

For a $100-150 product, this would be great. For $250 to $300 depending on strap, it's totally unacceptable.
[Moto 360] play2lose:
Yeah I can't believe they went with that old POS processor....the videos I've seen of the watch lagging just make me cringe, it could have been so much better! Was it really that hard to put a Snapdragon 400 in there? And I was really hoping for a higher PPI screen, or at least AMOLED.

However, I still will be getting one. I know it will die quicker and lag more than a LG G Watch, but damnit at least it'll look good while doing it.
[Moto 360] Orange_furball:
This. 1000x this.

I would rather have my 360 and charge it daily than have a brick on my wrist that lasts a few days.

I loved my Pebble, but it was not one bit attractive. Its an easy trade off to make. I charge my phone daily, I charge my laptop daily, what's the problem with charging a watch daily?
[Moto 360] Traxex_:
I'm kinda disappointed with the SoC they have chosen and the not as good battery life.

But I'll get one anyway cause it just looks really sexy.
[Moto 360] Mushroom.:
I have no problems with battery life. 14 hours off the charger yesterday evening, I was at 50%. Better than my phone battery. Ambient mode off, moderate use.
[Moto 360] desantim:
I've chuckled at a few comments in this thread... Unacceptable this, unforgivable that, this is the first android watch worth buying so far. Its the first that actually looks like a ... Oh dare I say watch and something a normal non-ubernerd would wear. Its like the ecogeeks that love how all the prius' look. The industry finally got to the point you could drive a hybrid without looking like you're actually out hugging trees. I have the watch there is no unbelievable epic lagging and even if there was some lag... Its a watch. Not a quad core 3 gb ram uber phone but a watch. Sure they could have gone with a better chip but battery life is typical for an android watch for the most part. It isn't some great travesty and moto cover up a lot of cost likely went into the design creation and marketing of this watch and as such some corners had to be shaved. If they had put in a better chip and if they could have fit a bigger battery in you'd have a larger watch ... Wait for the omgs flying at that point or a $100 price difference that again y'all would be whining about. I love it could it be better yes but that's where version 2 and 3 come in. What phone do you own for 2+ years.... None you upgrade why would a first edition smartwatch be ANY different?
[Moto 360] TheEmpyre:
^ I echo a lot of this. The majority of people including myself could not even conceive what goes into developing a product like this. Since when did everyone become so spoiled lol. There's a computer on your wrist! It's an amazing feat! If you want the perfect device then wait a few years, in the meantime I'm gonna enjoy an incredible piece of tech
[Moto 360] Locklear308:
Because it is a waste of materials and very obvious spoon feeding of tech. Using an old processor? Why? Just recycle them an use a current one.

This has nothing to be with being spoiled, this has to do with principle. Why on earth make a nice new product with old under powered tech? It is a waste of a product.

Hi,

With the old HTC One M7, I had the original car dock, which was fine except it forced me to remove the case, and it also scratched the back of the phone a little if dust was trapped while sliding it. So I went with a universal one this time.

But I still want it to go to Car Mode once the power cable is plugged in. I know a resistor between pin 4-5 on the USB cable will probably do the trick, but I am looking to buy a ready made cable instead of cutting the insulation on an existing one to add the resistor then wrap it with a tape. It's ugly.

But I can't seem to find anyone selling those, does somebody have an idea where can I get one of those?
