Contacts Not Shown On WhatsApp

Hi Guys,

I dont know its a ROM related issue or not but I have done everything i could but nothing seems to work, that's why I am posting it here.....

When i add a new contact to my phonebook, its not showing under WhatsApp contact list, I am sure the person has WhatsApp on their phone but its not showing under my WhatsApp list....

Can anyone confirm whether its a ROM related bug or anything else....
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] Picvajzmen:
maybe im dumb, but you did try the refresh the list option?
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] decentguy49:
Yes did but nothing happened
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] viggyv:
did you mess with the privacy settings ?...try this..go to settings >privacy>advanced (three dot menu)>personal (tab)>whatsapp>allow it to read contacts delete contacts and modify them..tell me if it worked..

Peace!
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] decentguy49:
I haven't did anything with Privacy setting, but i checked and everything seems fine there, WhatsApp can read, or modify contacts...
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] softtechiez:
Try this. Go to settings -> accounts->google select your account. Enable the sync people details option. Also make sure whatsapp is also synced by using sync now option. Give a try it might work.
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] decentguy49:
Sry but i also not working... anyone has any other solution....................... or one can tell me is it a ROM bug or not?
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] softtechiez:
Try creating a contact under google contact. Also enable sync contact in both settings, accounts, google and whatsapp. Also open whatsapp go to settings, contacts. Make sure show all contacts is enabled. I have no options other than this.
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] decentguy49:
already did this but not working.....................................

About HDR

We know that HDR mode seems not work in camera. As in my experiment, indeed that HDR mode does not work because it have same operation with normal mode and I think that's the bug :p

I have tapped flash option to be fired in normal mode and have taken a few pictures with flash. But when I have chosen the HDR mode, it still followed the normal mode operation as the pictures have taken with flash and it same with the flash turned off. The HDR mode should never flash as it operated with exposure.

Instead of just taking one photo, HDR uses three photos, taken at different exposures. You can then use image editing software to put those three images together and highlight the best parts of each photo. In the case of HDR on smartphones, your phone does all the work for you—just snap your picture and it'll spit out one regular photo and one HDR photo. The result is something that should look more like what your eyes see, rather than what your camera sees.

source: http://lifehacker.com/5991508/what-is-hdr-and-when-should-i-use-it-in-my-photos

So as me and other member thinks, the HDR mode seems not a kernel issue. Might it is related with android_device. And to add information about HDR photo, the ROM should add HDR stamp to HDR photo files as in MIUI6 it named with:

IMG_YYYYMMDD_HHMMSS_HDR

And I have taken a few pictures with HDR mode and have pulled logs with MIUI6 5.6.9 Global ROM and CM12.1-R9 if you dev want to see the difference.

[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] sinnerz2000:
I'm sure the devs already know this as they've been working on fixing HDR for a while now. Still I feel 'a better camera' HDR and DRO is better than stock camera.
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] somu1795:
'a better camera' is too much slow , and another question , in miui the shutter speed is really fast , but in every other rom the speed slows down , is that a kernel issue and can't be fixed?
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] sinnerz2000:
The camera shutter speed is the same, you can see the speed in image details, the image processing is slow but gives better results too.

Gapps not working . Can anyone help . Please
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] fefifofum:
Sorry, I forgot to comment on this before. I thought I could solve it, but it's not so easy. If buttons were the only thing not working in piston 3, there could be an easy fix. But headphones plug detection is been giving problems since the beginning...

I don't think the fix for this is some overlay in the device repo. Could be an upstream bug or an issue with your sim card, no idea.

Detection of bluetooth devices is a bit different in Lollipop, you cannot manually set the visibility of the device, so it is not as comfortable as one would wish. Anyway, I just tested it and it works, so keep trying...

Again, this has to do with the headphones plug detection issues we have in the kernel. Maybe if you unplug and plug again slowly it will work. Still waiting for Xiaomi to release a kernel source which is not as outdated as jellybean (but i'm getting tired of waiting...). Hopefully, some kernel dev will fix this or piston 3 support.

To fix HDR we need a camera wrapper in the device repo. I did that in cm11 and HDR was fixed, but there were some small issues left that stopped me from including it in my public builds. The same camera wrapper doesn't work in lollipop, since it expects an updated camera driver in the kernel, and we are still using jellybean camera driver and blobs (thanks again, xiaomi). So if we don't update the camera driver and blobs it will be hard to make HDR work in LP builds.
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] fefifofum:
New build released

... with just upstream changes. As you may have already noticed, I'm losing motivation with this device. It's june 2015 and we only have a jellybean kernel and a kitkat beta rom from xiaomi, very disappointing if you ask me. I don't know how much longer I will keep this device, or if anyone is interested in continuing our work (Kra1o5 already left some months ago). For now I will keep publishing builds (this is still my primary phone), but development from my side is almost finished (the phone works good enough from my point of view). Sorry for the bad news, but I hope you understand my position...
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] teddy0804:
thanks.. hmm, so I think now we have to be grateful this so far... :), Okay, I will wait another nightly build that fix and update the upstream. Last build I have tested 20150611 from [MENTION=5338100]sud.vastav[/MENTION] :D

ya, he has gave Redmi 1S to his father... But I don't know whether MIUI5/6 or CM that installed on his Redmi 1S.. hehehe :p
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] sinnerz2000:
Yea its disappointing, xiaomi can't make a proper ROM and won't even release proper sources so we can compile our own. Thanks to you I haven't given up on this phone so far and currently I'm fully enjoying lollipop on it without any major issues.
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] doylefermi:
Thank you . Thanks alot .

All of you really deserve lots of appreciation. Not many bugs left. Just a handful. armani-devs you guys really did a great job :o

Its sad to hear the development is kinda ending. Hopefully something will come up. God bless you :fingers-crossed:
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] Kra1o5:
CM for sure hehe.
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] david_inuk:
Nobody can have any complaints are you. You are an absolute star for everything you have done this far!

The change log only refers to upstream fixes. Does anybody know where one can see what the upstream fixes have been?
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] softtechiez:
Check this if you are so interested. www.cmxlog.com/12.1/
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] mangkoeboemi:
Detection plug is not a big problem bro...since we can still make it works by unplug and plug it again slowly... As long as the buttons work it is enough...im looking forward to it...thanks
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] odjiex:
I hope someone will continue their awesome work, aamiin
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] presetz:
owh, i noticed that the op has changed...fefifofum now...

[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] deccan451:
Armani-devs you guys are the source for other ROMs if you stop other ROM projects will effect please continue great project we are getting caf msm8226 fixes regularly xiaomi always late in releasing source, less uses miui most depends on cm for there daily drive .. Thank you, humble request never stop this project for motivation just explore legacyxperia.github.io ... Mike continuing great project even device unable to handle our device has better specs than that :)
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] Jayanttyagi:
A new version of miui6 was released for 1s.. Maybe the new kernel can help to improve this rom?

If xiaomi releases source codes atleast for kitkat or lollipop!
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] nikhildangui:
Syhost may help us

sir there is an developer called syhost which has published many awesome rom, he was even developing CM 11 for our devices separately, even i was using his work , that is CM 11 and MIUI 6 unofficial rom before switching to CM 11 developed by you guys ..

i think he can help us in a big way ... but as far as i knw about, he is not there on english forums, and can be found only on chinese sites

hi work used to reached to us with the help of few guys out there who used to provide an thread in english

i will love to see you guys working to gather......

and even if the development is stopped I hope you will continue it as soon as MI releases source code for KItkat.. and will get android M directly
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] viggyv:
Check if the above mentioned developer has open sourced his developments....get back to the thread!

Cheers!
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] philip_petev:
So-called "devs" like syhost give a bad name to all devs. People like him, more concerned about whether someone can take their work and present it as his own, than the development about something to go at all, have no place at XDA, as long as they constantly disobey the GPL.
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] kalya bhau:
Let us all E-mail Xiaomi and force them to release proper sources as we did earlier.

Devs are doing great job, let us also contribute in making our device better

Every single mail matters, so let's do this one more time!!:cool:

BANG that THANKS button
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] Zeehan:
Ya we could just spam Xiaomi, until they release proper kernel sources

I'm up for that.

Redmi 1s users UNITE :p

Can anyone provide a framework as to how the email must be sent.

Or just a normal request will do??
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] Cican49:
I'm in :D
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] presetz:
and fyi, if you noticed at the miui forum general section, theres a thread about this started by [MENTION=5760303]doylefermi[/MENTION], well we could support his/her effort. imho

edit : sorry, its not in general section but heres the link

WhatsApp Issue

I dont know whats the issue with WhatsApp..........................

As i had already told that whenever I add a new number in my contact list it wont show in WhatsApp, i had tried almost every possible solution out there but nothing seems to work, I am sure it was working fine in R8, but at this time I am on R9 and downloading R10.....

Even I had added a number of my friend in my contact list and when I check WhatsApp it ask to invite that friend, but he has WhatsApps installed on his number, then I asked him to message me from same number and he did, now when his message arrives WhatsApp says, this person is not in your contact list Add or Block.

But when i check contacts in WhatsApp it ask to invite, isnt its strange?

Does any one have any solution?
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] leoism2:
Have you tried to sync your contacts with whatsapp? Check if you have contact modification permission to allowed to whatsapp in privacy guard .
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] david_inuk:
I just noticed that I have exactly the same problem!

No blocks anywhere.
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] decentguy49:
Yes already did and nothing wrong in privacy guard, all things seems fine....
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] david_inuk:
This is annoying me!

Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling whatsapp?
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] leoism2:
Try to updgare the WhatsApp version , could be possible it's the problem with whatsapp's build. And remove whatsapp account from settings and resetup WhatsApp for your device . if still the problem doesn't solve then go for clean flash of the ROM again. Not everyone facing this problem. So don't know if it's a bug in the ROM or just you guys are facing it [MENTION=5927707]decentguy49[/MENTION] [MENTION=514539]david_inuk[/MENTION]
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] kalya bhau:
Solution is simple just launch WhatsApp

Swipe right to go into list of contacts

At end of list there is option called CONTACTS HELP

Go into it and enable show invincible contacts

BOOM you're ready to go!:cool:

BANG that THANKS button
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] david_inuk:
Tried moving Whatsapp from sd card to main memory in case that has something to do with it, even after reboot, nothing. I've also updated to the latest build downloaded directly from their website (not playstore) but it hasn't fixed the problem either. :(

Just uninstalled, rebooted, checked that whatsapp account is deleted from accounts as well, reinstalled and nothing.

So I turned to google.

Would you believe it? The first entry was the one which fixed the problem.

https://www.whatsapp.com/faq/en/android/20970403

The last step only! (the steps about making all contacts visible didn't work, they were all visible)

I should have turned straight to our trusted friend Google who always knows all the answers! Just goes to show how people can easily be subtly manipulated without them realising. Had you not mentioned this problem first, I would probably have gone straight to google in the first place, but because you drew me into this thread, I didn't even think of it!

Anyway, it works for me and it will work for you too!!!

Why dev didn't put this value to build.prop? I can't update RR3 through Play Store without it

ro.product.model=HM 1S

ro.product.device=armani
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] Iceman:
First i would like to say sorry to dev for OT... regarding real racing 3 games..

Hi jerryshaw

Honestly i got try before.. i change manually.. added "ro.product.model=HM 1S" also no help although device model show in setting about phone device model is HM 1S after manually add "ro.product.model=HM 1S" so i revert back to stock build.pro then are show my exactly device model HM 1SW in about phone device model. but very strange is in olderst 4.4.4 kitkat version are compatible in play store not the latest cm11 R26 :crying::rolleyes: sure compatible in miui 5, also may be working with latest miui 6 beta version...:)

Also if you try to install RR3 from windows laptop/pc, also show "X This app is incompatible with your device" also notice that show "X No carrier Xiaomi HM 1SW" i show you the print screen too. so i think is not related with the stock build.prop. I also hope can compatible one day later :) but i still able to play.. is the way you can try to search in google and download manually with the RR3 apk;)
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] bhu1:
But I connect my HDD a lot to my phone, and before lollipop i could transfer 3-4 GB files easily. Now all file explorers show error as soon as 2.0gb mark is reached when copying a file, and I can't change HDD format cause Its 800gb full and I don't have anywhere to transfer that data so I can format and change HDD file system.

[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] japg2000:
I have the same problem in my Tab3 with CM12.1 so it seems like its a problem of CyanogenMod.

I've fixed it in Tab3 by replacing the file /system/bin/ntfs-3g with the one downloaded by the app StickMount in folder /data/data/eu.chainfire.stickmount/files. Maybe it works too in Redmi.

Guys, i have problem with sim cards since day one, amd I wonder does anyone else have it also.

When I make a call with sim card number 2 it often blocks both sim cards and i cant make calls nor send messages, and i have no data connection. I then have to deactivate Sim number 2 and activate it again to get eveyrhing to work properly again.

Anyone else have such problems?
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] ajayajun:
I dont have any problem as such.. It's absolutely working fine.. Feels stable.. :) :thumbup:
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] david_inuk:
The phone is sometimes slow to open up the modem again to SIM 1 after using sim 2.

I can make a call on sim 2 and it can take more than a few minutes for my sim 1 to actually come online again. (according to the symbol in the taskbar, it looks like its online, but the fact is that I can't receive incoming calls, although to complicate things, I do receive sms messages!)
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] leoism2:
Yeah that too, and sometimes the phone just deny to reactivate sim 1 for data pack, it continuous to show the full signal and data pack icon in the status bar of sim1, but in real it uses the sim 2 for data connection no matter what I select in sim preferred data pack settings. Only a reboot solves this but happens again as soon as the phone gets low signal of sim 1. Probably Something is wrong with the modem stuff I dunno what but earlier also many user reported that sim 1shows sim 2's info and vice versa

Good to know that CM team is working on a complete version. We just need to be patient :)

Do we need to do a clean install coming from CM12 or can I just update like always?
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] phreakenstein:
Clean install recommended since op had some problems dirty flashing, and next time, please read the thread, its just 10 pages.(YET!)
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] Angelina7:
A clean install is always advised to avoid issues like Force close and reboots. You can back up your apps and restore them later.

Looks like CM12.1 R2 is ready to be served. Man, devs, stop doing this, go get some sleep :p If you die of hardwork, where are we supposed to go?? :p

By the way .. looks like the long time alarm bug is finally solved KSM is gone (hoorah) and thermal controls are more optimized.... :laugh:

‪#‎Changelog‬:-

Fix alarm during off mode charging

Disable KSM by default (fixes camera for some users)

Less agressive thermal control for battery temp

Update wifi files to fix suspend issue

Update media codecs and profiles

Note:- plz dont ask for links it will be out soon ;)

Hey, devs, I have to say, after finally getting the ROM to stabilised after the 5th wipe, its working like a charm. Super fast, super smooth, no heating, Bluetooth is finally properly working, connects instantly, visible instantly, and most importantly, the music being outputed isn't lagging or has flickering sound or any bug. Thanks guys.
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] fefifofum:
Please, let me do the announcements of new releases. I started the changelog of R2 so I don't forget anything, but I won't be releasing it today (notice the question mark in the release date). Also, that changelog can still be modified, commits could get reverted, new bugs could arise....
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] phreakenstein:
Message got through, captain. Won't happen again.
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] teddy0804:
LED color

As the R2 is being prepared and while could be some bugs will arise, I take a time to send this report. Just reached the low battery warning. The 'pulse if battery low' seems not work that indicated by the LED is always on with red (or custom) color, but the rainbow color setting works normal with it saturation.

but when we set the light color for notification LED, it seems not work. The selected color in rainbow menu does not shows the right color on LED and seems confusing the pulse speed (?). Reproduce bug with random selected in rainbow menu and pulse speed. Logcat attached.

I've done 3 clean installs, problems persist. looks like it's got something to do with shared code between all the king apps (I've installed them all). I'm back on 12.0 for now. I'll try again with R3 or R4 I think...
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] Angelina7:
Use the gapps from first post, download a fresh copy from play store than restoring. I don't see why it won't work ... I installed it to check your issue but now I got hooked ! Played a few times since then.
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] Gogeta:
Min and max frequency stuck on 1 GHz and not changing whatever I do. What could possibly the reason?
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] sinnerz2000:
Read previous posts, that's because of MP decision under clocking the CPU to cool the phone.
