Device - Xiaomi Redmi 2 Prime (Config & Info)

Recently Xiaomi Redmi 2 Prime Launched in India (Made In India) & I am Proud to Have It :o

I am Coming from OPO & Loved that a Hell Lot except the SIZE! :rolleyes:

Now I have few Quarries (I was not able to get clear answers from MiUi)

01. Is the ROMs from Redmi 2 (1GB/8GB) are also working for Redmi 2 Prime (2GB/16GB) ?

02. What is the Most Stable & Close to Stock Android ROM Available? (No Launchers Idea Please!) :eek:

03. What about Modem Files of this Device??

What I Need is a clean ROM something like Paranoid Android Kitkat ROM For OPO (Most Stable & Clean Rom I have ever Used)..

If anyone is having this device .. & can suggest me something .. Will be thankful.. If not forward it to someone may be who can help.

### Redmi 2 (1GB/8GB) And Redmi 2 Prime (2GB/16GB) are different in my eyes..so please mention if YOU HAVE IT ALREADY :)

You could try this rom, if it works perfectly do let us know. I dont see a reason why it shouldn't. The box of the phone says redmi 2.

[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] badhon_raj:
Hi,

since upgrading my z2 to 5.0.2 (about 3-4 month ago)

I'm having this weird issue.

This occurs only when I try to install an app from downloaded apk file.

After opening the APK, the next/install button doesn't work.

The button is not grayed out/inactive, but still tapping on it doesn't work.

This problem doesn't occure for all apk. only some apk.

I'm sure those files are compatible not corrupted.

Using rooted stock firmware with nut's dual recovery.

Any help will be much appreciated.

If I need to mention any more information, please ask.

Thanks.

Hey guys, I just bought a new htc one m8 cause my old one got effed. I have both phones beside each other and my new one seems different. A little darker, i don't think any slimmer but it feels a little different in hand. The power button is also different. I called HTC and they told me that they have not touched a single thing in the past year. Which is when I got my first one. Anyone know if I'm being lied too? If I am, what is the differences between the two. Thank you.

Hello. I have a Prophet (G4 model if is relevant) and the following problem:

Screen display resolution is like in Windows safe mode or 16 Colours. Something like this, the colours are distorted, i have only green and blue.

The phone is working, all functions are active but is no use if you can see the display as you should.

I want to know if there is a resolution display setting, is a software setting or a hardware error.

Can I do something to "repair" the phone ?

Thanks, Regards!

[Samsung Gear S] biktor_gj:
To the lengths Samsung will go to avoid things to be made... I have to take back what I said about the Gear S kernel being cleaner... I just patched the memory driver (arch/arm/mach-msm/memory.c), the framebuffer (drivers/video/msm/msm_fb.c) and the DTS board file (arch/arm/boot/dts) just to reclaim the framebuffer memory that was stolen and making the recovery binaries drop a segmentation fault. WHAT THE HECK.

I have fixed the framebuffer for low power mode (charging) and recovery mode!

Proof or didn't happen ;)

I know it's not a good picture but my phone can only do so much with this light and this screen!

View attachment 3438067

So, to recap:

Kernel booting? Check

Graphics? Check

Device tree? Started, a lot of work remain

Automatic building? Half.

I have a problem with the kernel building. I fixed all the errors preventing CM's build system to do the actual build, but it doesn't produce a bootable kernel. The kernel is correctly compiled, but the DTB is not created in the same way, and it occupies more space than it should, not fitting the boot image. Also, there's the mkdzimage binary problem. I decompiled it and I'm trying to rebuild it so it can be compiled from source, but not sure if I can make that...

Anyway, one step at a time ;)

I have seen idiotic lockdownds of devices by manufacturers before...This is one of the worst.. Don't give up! Don't let them get away with keeping us from getting an unreal device :)

A.K.A keep up the utterly amazing work.
[Samsung Gear S] biktor_gj:
The funny thing with this stupid approach is that, to save about 1Mb of RAM only in charge mode they seem to be using the GPU in full power mode when the watch is charging or making a factory reset... I understand they use it when doing the factory reset (only time recovery mode is started in tizen), but why on earth do they need to start the entire desktop enviromment just to unzip a file (opt.zip) or to show a battery icon with a percentage? Is it worth to consume 10 times cpu power to save 1Mb of ram when the device is (or should be)... Essentially off?
[Samsung Gear S] chiikko561:
They probably did it more so to confuse the amazing devs on xda and try to block you from showing the world what this watch really could be if it was not proprietary to Samsung. ..
[Samsung Gear S] biktor_gj:
Okay, TWRP is here!

I love people who can't read...

Anyway, it's a beautiful morning, isn't it?

Wifi, still a work in progress. Still haven't found what makes it 'tick'. Not all are bad news though, I managed to fix bluetooth! Just needed to replace the entire bluetooth stack in the kernel so it wouldn't crash in Android ;)

I have only checked pairing and internet tethering client, but I assume A2DP will be working fine, and tethering server will work once the modem can get data up. So, while I was at it I sideloaded Google Apps into the watch and tried to sign in. Results? Check them out!

Be careful! TWRP has read write access now. You can use it to sideload GAPPS, but that means that you should be careful with what you do. DON'T FORMAT PARTITIONS!

Full build

http://www.mediafire.com/download/5uzbcshp16ecyxv/CM_Build19.zip

And after you flashed it go back to Odin and flash the latest kernel. It has wifi problems since I was testing some driver modifications, so it might crash every now and then, but bluetooth is fixed there

You are a f**cking hero! Do you think the current build is suitable for alpha testing by a non dev?
[Samsung Gear S] biktor_gj:
As long as you follow instructions on the previous post about making the backup of your system-data partition and you're a bit careful, you should be good to go.

[Samsung Gear S] mrmrmrmr:
Hi,

I would like to try this. But since it is not "complete" yet , I bet I would be going back to Tizen. So I need to have the backup as instructed.

But there are 2 things I am not sure of;

1. If I get the sysdata.tar as instructed with TWRP, when I want to go back to original, I will still have TWRP. How can I go back to full original without losing data (installing original firmware that is) ?

2. If I go back to Tizen with sysdata.tar , shall I be able to continue my life with my current untouched Tizen Gear S ?

I mean , I don't want to reset my Gear S to factory settings and then install all apps one by one. Does the sysdata.tar include data and will it be able to connect to Gear Manager without factory reset ?

Btw, [MENTION=5961655]minjoon0312[/MENTION] , thanks for the instructions. Could you please write how we can go back to Tizen using sysdata.tar ?

Thanks.
[Samsung Gear S] hurdlejade:
Wow that looks impressive! So to understand properly, Gear S works with Android, internet is working but at the moment only via GSM/2G but not 3G/Wifi/BT? Dream is coming closer!

You are doin' really great job!!
[Samsung Gear S] minjoon0312:
Sure, give me just few hours. [emoji4]
[Samsung Gear S] biktor_gj:
Given the battery consumption, it will probably be an 'hourly' driver, more than daily ;)

I would hold on a bit longer, since wifi makes the kernel crash every once in a while, you will find yourself with the watch rebooting randomly and heating your wrist. Once that is done, we'll see how the battery behaves and maybe I'll limit the CPU frequency to keep things a bit cooler.

In essence, we're on the right path, but we're not there yet :)
[Samsung Gear S] runningwarrior08:
Well Biktor by the time my watch comes in it sounds like you will be done and I will be useless hahahaha. Great Job man.
[Samsung Gear S] minjoon0312:

Here you go :)

Make sure that you should back up the file "Sysdata.tar" via ADB.

:D:D:D
[Samsung Gear S] biktor_gj:
I just found out the display keeps on dying when you leave it suspended long enough running with battery so... you might want to wait a little longer after all... it's not that bad, your wrist will live for another day ;)

Don't worry mate, there's work for everyone here!

TWRP changes are on the recovery partition, it will get updated when you flash the latest build! I have gone back and forth between Android and Tizen and everything works as expected in both OS, but I don't have anything to pair my watch to so I can't test everything. At least, telephony, sensors, audio and video work in Tizen. I'm not formatting any partition just yet, so avoid those functions for now just in case. Flashing Google apps is not an issue, but I don't know what will happen if TWRP formats system-data or user partitions, so be careful with those...

By the way, I just put online MTP support in Android, so another one off the list. Stupid wifi is taking ages and I have to go back and look again at the display so it comes back from hibernation when running in battery... d*amn it!
[Samsung Gear S] minjoon0312:
I accidentally wiped the system-data via TWRP, but everything works fine. I went back to Tizen 3~4times, because of the wifi crashing problems haha

[MENTION=803006]biktor_gj[/MENTION] We love you man!
[Samsung Gear S] biktor_gj:
Don't have anything to try with... If it was working in tizen it should work on android though, firmware is the same and the driver is stable with no 'hacky patches' anywhere...
[Samsung Gear S] gidi:
On Tizen The watch was a client to the Samsung phone. The connection was indeed BLE and when the need arose (e.g. for phonecalls) the connection was via normal BT.

Problem is, even on Tizen, you could not connect a BLE accessory to the watch.

Please see the bellow thread i have started in the past.

Hi what about GPS and the heart sensor, are they working?
[Samsung Gear S] biktor_gj:
4) Sensors (all of them)

GPS, at least assisted, should be working. I've seen the icon there, but haven't done anything to make it work. As the watch doesn't seem to have 'real' gps capabilities, that's as good as it gets (haven't fully checked)
[Samsung Gear S] gidi:
When running Tizen the Gear S does indeed have GPS in standalone mode.

I have recorded routes with both Nike+ and the S-health apps, while the watch was completely standalone.
[Samsung Gear S] gidi:
I have two SIM cards (same number). One of them is always on the watch. I always put the iPhone in flight mode before turning on the watch.
[Samsung Gear S] runningwarrior08:
Yes but I think it uses network positioning.. I could be mistaken though. Try to get a GPS lock without a sim card? I don't have mine in yet to test. And I never used my old one without Sim
[Samsung Gear S] gidi:
I think it is true GPS positioning. It seems accurate enough.
[Samsung Gear S] Darklust:
I'm on the most recent build with a tmo gear s variant, and the SIM card is not detected... I've seen some here state calls/sms work what carrier is supported?
[Samsung Gear S] Shum Channel:
The Tizen GPS is working properly. If you use A-GPS, the cold start takes about two minutes, and the hot - about 10 seconds. If you turn off the mobile network, the hot start about 20-30 seconds, and cold to 30-40 minutes outdoors. GPS Receiver hours there, but a very low sensitivity.
[Samsung Gear S] nq:
<i> cold to 30-40 minutes outdoors <i>

My Gear S makes a cold start in 10 minutes in a city\park. I suppose that each GPS start in a new location without SIM card inside is "cold".
[Samsung Gear S] biktor_gj:
Does it at least ask for the PIN code? Boot it up and send me:

adb shell dmesg > dmesg.log

adb logcat -b radio > radio.log
[Samsung Gear S] biktor_gj:
logcat never ends, it needs to be stopped by ctrl+c :)

Here, have this fix in adb shell way:

adb shell mount -o remount,rw /
adb shell mount -o remount,rw /system
adb shell mkdir /temp
adb shell mount -t vfat -o ro /dev/block/mmcblk0p21 /temp
adb shell cp -rf /temp/image/* /system/etc/firmware
adb shell umount /temp
adb shell rmdir /temp
adb shell chmod 755 /system/etc/firmware/*
adb shell sync
adb reboot

The logs say the modem is dying because it doesn't accept the firmware. I guess T-Mobile users have different modems with different digital signatures and are being rejected on load. This will copy your tizen modem into the android firmware folder and hopefully on the next reboot it will come up correctly.

Let me know if it works for you!
