Pls forgive my noob question, but could you please show me how to flash rom and data wipe?? Maybe make a tutorial for it?

I really appreciated it, thanks
[Meizu M2 Note Questions & Answers] aaallleeennn:
Hey, just go to meizus webpage, go to downloads and download 4.5.4i version, it will be named update.zip, put it on internal storage and open it with file browser that came preinstalled on phone, it's named Document, then window will popup when you tap on it and press update

I'm still not sure mate what is going on, it started again after I charged it to 100%

Spent a lot of time trying to get Google play installed, the play service from the Meizu app store along with this APK finally worked. Thanks for the tip.
[Meizu M2 Note Questions & Answers] DamnKribo:
H i,

You mean that 4.5.4I has improvement in battery life ?

Some were saying it consume more batt life than previous firm??

In this case is batt draining fast??
[Meizu M2 Note Questions & Answers] spikywits:
4.5.4I is a battery drainer. Drains a lot even if you don't do anything. I tried every optimization xposed greenify Lspeed scripts etc nothing seems to fix it. So are there any rom developments or porting in progress known so far? with flashfire miui seems possible but unlikely any work on it this time.
[Meizu M2 Note Questions & Answers] aaallleeennn:
Google play services app is a main battery drainer. It prevents phone going into deep sleep and uses much cpu and keeps Android system processes running so they also using so much cpu and draining battery. So I asked few days ago that someone post screenshot of battery usage to see if they also have Android system in first place using much more battery than screen, but noone did.

Try charging battery to 100%, unplug charger and then run script to kill google processes, you can find it in LSpeed mod. And then see if things will get better

Are there any people who use Lucky Patcher on their Meizu m2 note phones. My phone running Flume 4.5.4I version and I have some trouble with LP - support patch for InApp and LVL emulation not working. How about your LP?
[Meizu M2 Note Questions & Answers] spikywits:
I guess you are right. But killing google services cant be a solution for it. Moreover I find Lspeed makes device unstable so removed it already.

LP works fine here but patching takes quite a while unlike other phones.
[Meizu M2 Note Questions & Answers] DamnKribo:
So, the battery consumption still has been a big issue, i will wait within 1 month for meizu to fix it up, it surely not a normal thing to charge 4 times a day for a moderate user like me, otherwise i'll get a new phone
[Meizu M2 Note Questions & Answers] aaallleeennn:
You see how much battery Android OS/system uses. It wasn't like that on 4.5.3. For me, since I used browser much, it was screen no1 then browser and android OS/system on third and fourth place.
[Meizu M2 Note Questions & Answers] sutty86:
Four times a day can't be on surely, must be an app

[Meizu M2 Note Questions & Answers] aaallleeennn:
Ok guys, here's the tip I can tell you: when you charge phone to 100% run script from Lspeed mod to stop Google services. It won't have any side effects, they still running but not using even 1% of battery. So far I got 1h 51min sot and 80% battery remaining. I think thats great.

Strange behavior at reboot after installing Xposed v75

Hi guys!

I probably need some help: I have a brand new Meizu M2 Note International version, updated to 4.5.4i, rooted by Flyme account, installed BusyBox, installed Xposed v75. Everything seemed fine after first reboot (no boot loop, all apps optimized in a while, etc.); then I installed Flyme Tools v1.8.3 and I started getting problems: Flyme Tools sometimes seemed unresponsive for a while, however, I changed some settings (font size, some other stuff about the notification bar, etc.), restarted the phone and... BOOM! Stuck in the Flyme logo. Or, at least, the phone was taking many minutes to enter the home page, so I restarted manually; again stuck in the Flyme logo. I managed to exit from this situation only after 6-7 reboots. Then it happened again after I rebooted the phone to test if everything was ok or not.

Is this something that happens normally when Xposed is installed? Or maybe the phone has to re-optimize all the apps after every reboot and I wasn't patient enough to wait for that? :rolleyes:

Any suggestion is absolutely welcome!
[Meizu M2 Note Questions & Answers] aaallleeennn:
It happens after xposed is installed, but with v74 it happens every 7-8th reboot, not with every reboot
[Meizu M2 Note Questions & Answers] weiimyway:
Is it really no side effects to disable Google Service?

and what exactly services that being stop?

have you try to use amplify module on xposed?
[Meizu M2 Note Questions & Answers] wazza88:
I just received my meizu m2 note today. The phone came installed with play store already, however, when I try to download any apps, nothing happens. It will not download, it just says “downloading” and won’t do anything.

I read somewhere that I need to install a correct version of google play store by downloading google installer via the app center, however I can’t do that either because my phone doesn’t have that for some reason. I have no app center.

What should I do? Your help would be greatly appreciated.

You should update your firmware. You can download @ meizu's website. I had that no downloading problem too. You're on 4.5.1 right?

Really it was showing 800+ MB wheni was on 4.5.2
[Meizu M2 Note Questions & Answers] paparick07:
Yes. It only shows 45MB. Maybe because I am on 4.5.3? that's why I only needed a small number of files to be modified? Also I already did the upgrade and it seems to be working fine with that 45MB update.
[Meizu M2 Note Questions & Answers] aaallleeennn:
You just kill google processes, no side effects. I don't use anything for battery saving, so far I've been a little over 19h on battery, I got 5h 5min sot and 40% battery remaining.

Maybe...will try to do it myself
[Meizu M2 Note Questions & Answers] weiimyway:
do you mean the "google play services" that located on the setting- application - Run.??

I stop the service, it has several process and services, but after being stopped they immediately run again... is it normal?
[Meizu M2 Note Questions & Answers] aaallleeennn:
Download LSpeed mod and use script from mod to kill google processes. It will run again but won't drain battery like insane.

Thanks for your reply. My firmware is 4.5.3A. Do you have a download link? How do I update once I download it? Sorry for being a noob, it's just a little bit confusing.

Cheers.
[Meizu M2 Note Questions & Answers] paparick07:
Here is the Link: http://www.flyme.cn/firmwarelist-10.html .

how to install:

If you download it using your phone (I used Chrome browser)

1. Open "Document" app

2. "Download" folder

3. Click Update.zip

4. Installer will show up just follow the instruction.
[Meizu M2 Note Questions & Answers] DamnKribo:
Wow, that is awesome aaallleeennn...

Any tutorial on how to do it?

Supposed to 4.5.4i or just stay at 4.5.3ii to use the mod?

I really would like to try..

Thanks
[Meizu M2 Note Questions & Answers] paparick07:
I think this is what he meant:

1. Go to settings

2. click Apps

3. Choose "Run."

4. Find Google play services

5. Click it then press "stop"
[Meizu M2 Note Questions & Answers] AShacks:
No he means an automatic script that keeps killing the google play services.
[Meizu M2 Note Questions & Answers] DamnKribo:
Yes, that was i thought also

And if he means that Google play service can be force stop manually, not in my case, coz it grey, cant be moved to sd card and cant be force closed either, if only i cant post my screennshot here w/o uploading to any registered site for link to post, i will do it...
[Meizu M2 Note Questions & Answers] aaallleeennn:
C'mon guys, just read what I wrote. Don't manually force stop google services. Download LSpeed mod, extract Kill google services script, find it somewhere in zip, paste it anywhere in system and change permissions to 755 and then run it. I use FX file manager and when you press on script you have option Run, then press again Run and that's it. Google services won't drain battery. I get over 8h sot in 24h usage time. And I think thats insanely good, because anything over 6h sot is great. And that's on wifi, I don't have opportunity to test with 3g/4g
[Meizu M2 Note Questions & Answers] DamnKribo:
Pls give us download link aaallleeennn, shud i upgrade first to 4.5.4i?? Or just stay at current 4.5.3i ? And also pls step by step tutorial, you dont mind, do you? I really appreciate your tutorial in lspeed mod..

Mine m2note, rooted flyme acc, 4.5.3i, some apps installed.. (Whatsaap, insta, etc), shud do backup or no before upgrading to 4.5.4i?

Thanks so much...

Any issues with apps after disabling? Do you still get push notifications? Because with android tools you can also choose which services to disable and it's not advisable to disable all of them.

Is there another way to do this? What should I be doing?

I just figured it out! I moved the update.zip file to root directory of phone. Then in reset phone by pressing volume up and power buttons. Selected upgrade and it starting upgrading to new firmware.
[Meizu M2 Note Questions & Answers] aaallleeennn:
Open it with the file manager that came preinstalled on your phone. Then just tap Reboot. If you want clean install, to delete all data and apps on the phone then check that option and then Reboot.

Oh man, I feel stupid. I just need to give it more time, like many, many minutes. :)
[Meizu M2 Note Questions & Answers] aaallleeennn:
Guys we already discussed about this, you can't fix it, it's like that by default in rom, flymeOs developers made it. When I wrote to meizu about it they said it's made to avoid accidental touches when holding phone in hand, but it doesn't make any sense. So I told that phone already has bezels that prevent this when we hold phones and they told it will be fixed, but it wasn't fixed. Find Meizu on Facebook and report this, maybe they fix it once they have many complaints about it

Before uninstalling revert back to 4x4 grid, if you have 5x5 or some other it will happen that you miss icons of the apps after uninstalling because they will remain somewhere down under and won't be visible

Hello guys! I'm new here. I'm planning to buy Meizu M2 Note next month probably 1st week or 2nd week of November and I have few question:

What is the best version for you guys? (I, or A)

I'm more on tweaking my device so probably If I get my Meizu M2 Note I will going to root that so what can you share or tips & tricks on how I can personalize my phone?

I'm more on a battery life so what can you suggest to me to have a long battery life? What procedure, cycle, and restriction in charging the M2 Note? (It is okay to charge it while it is on but will not use like that.. whatever)

About modding (like xposed,Lspeed,etc) it is okay to do that and are you sure it will not bricked my phone? (I'm okay if it bootloop because it is easy to flash, I will be scared if my phone doesn't turning on or can't go into the recovery)

And, any info you can share to me I will surely appreciated :good::angel:

Sorry for my bad english :D
[Meizu M2 Note Questions & Answers] paparick07:
Pick the "I" version because I means for International. Google apps (Playstore, maps, etc) are already installed unlike the "A" which is meant for Chinese consumers. As for rooting. All you need to do is create a Flyme account then go to settings>accounts>My Flyme>click your flyme account>set System Privileges to "open". And you are now rooted.

Dirty background ratio 70

Dirty expire and writeback centisecs both to 0

Swappiness 10

Overcommit ratio 150

Then open LMK tab and set to medium

Then open file manager and make new txt file, copy following into it:

Save it, name it however you want and copy to system, change permissions to 755 and run script, or if you have init.d enabled put it in and it will run on startup.

Screen Code Loked

Hy,

I bought a Meizu M2 Note(Note 2) MT6753 for my daughter and she made a big mistake, she set a Screen code, before having set a meizu account, and forgot the code.

I already try everything to trry to unlock the phone, and they are telling me that the only solution is send the phone to HonnorBuy, the site where I bought the phone, the problem is that is very expensive sending the phone to them.

I tried to change the Update.zip so I can format alll data on installation, but it always report a firmware error on the .zip file.

When I try the clear data option on the recovery menu, he always ask for a code.

Does someone has any idea how I can I fix it?, Can someone build an update zip, with the format data option on the installation process?

Thanks
