Hi all, I have been away for some time.

My device is running 4.5.4.1A which is rooted.

Do you recommend update via internal updater and if yes, to which version?

Are there significant features/benefits I am missing with the current version I have?

Has Flyme sorted the background app killing out in this ROM? I use tasker to automate but every 5 mins will kill tasker process from the background. Does anyone know what the y stands for in this rom?

Yesterday I tried CM12.1 v.0.8. Installation was without problem, but then I installed Xposed and Gravitybox. After that, I modified quicksettings buttons. After restarting phone, the window with "app bluetooth stop working" text starts appearing repeatly. This I could understand, because there is a few options to change quicksettings buttons in setting menu of the ROM. But I missed ringing mode button a lot (none, vibration, vibration+sound) which is not there.

The next thing is, that in Elephone port ROM I used Google launcher and change dpi with Texdroider to 260. Then I changed launcher grid in Gravitybox for 6x6 and everything was great. In CM 12.1 I have to change DPI in settings menu, then if I changed grid in GB on 6x6 I get a much smaller icons and labels than on Elephone port.

Does anyone know, how to solve some of these problems please? I don't want to stop using Google launcher, but the more important thing is ringing mode button in quicksetting...

I just installed 5.1.4.0Y and it seems to be working normally. I have my SIM card in another phone and I can't confirm if Whatsapp is working normally, I will try it later. It was basically the only app which I had to actually open to see if there are any new messages.

Could Y stand for Yun OS?

Anyone experiencing sudden issue with the wifi not connecting using CM 12.1 version 8?

---------- Post added at 11:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:04 PM ----------

Yes, the indicated Y letter on the firmware version stands for YunOS. So this version is YunOS based firmware.

---------- Post added at 11:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:09 PM ----------

If you have installed the latest beta firmware that you downloaded from the Meizu China site, you can use Kingroot apk to root the phone download it here. Just take note that the firmware is YunOS based not android, although you can install any APK files but some application is not working or crashing. Also, to install Google Play and services just download the Google installer from the Meizu Appstore, I would suggest that just download the apps from the Meizu appstore. I encounter issues downloading apps using Google Play keeps getting error when downloading the workaround is clear cache on Google Play app then remove your Google Account then log back in again which kinda annoying.

Please any one give instruction to flash cm12.1 from begining. I donot understand russian . Thanks in advance

Do everything as a movie , you do not need to know how Russian https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WyIuKEs2m8w

CyanogenMod 12.1 is not stable . digitizer does not work as it should. Port elephone to me is a very good system . if someone fixed the notification was led would be great
[Meizu M2 / M2 Mini Guides, News, & Discussion] zyper95:
First you need to unlock the bootloader for your device, just take note that unlocking the bootloader for Meizu is risky it can brick your phone and making it unusable. Once you have unlock the bootloader you need to flash manually via ADB the custom recovery so you can flash the custom rom built specific only for Meizu M2 model. Just search the thread for the instructions on how to unlock the bootloader, flashing custom recovery and flashing CM 12.1 for Meizu M2.
[Meizu M2 / M2 Mini Guides, News, & Discussion] honza_81:
I agree with You, even if I don't have problem with digitizer. If I install xposed, the window "bluetooth apk stop working" starts showing repeatly. So I can't install GravityBox. When it worked for a while, I can't modify quick settings buttons because of same error.

Elephone port worked very well, but I missed the LED notification. On CM12.1 works notification only for missed calls and SMS, Viber doesn't light the LED up. :(. Mokee could be also good. It seems, that every ROM has some bugs. The last fully working ROM that I ever had, was a CM9 on LG P500... :) Stock ROMs is totally unuseable.
[Meizu M2 / M2 Mini Guides, News, & Discussion] zyper95:
I think the issue with the touchscreen erratic behavior is due to the DPI set on the rom, it pushes the GPU to attain the 320 DPI (which was set to default) also eat up battery and as far as I know the Meizu M2 only has 294 DPI. On my device I set it to 280 DPI so far no issue with touchscreen scrolling (still testing it). Although setting it to a lower DPI makes the icons and text smaller, you can compensate adjusting the font size via settings. My only issue right now with CM 12.1 is the low volume via the external speaker.
[Meizu M2 / M2 Mini Guides, News, & Discussion] honza_81:
I use 260dpi, so maybe that is why I don't have this problems...

I've encountered some strange behavior of my m2 mini. I used Flyme 4.5.4.2A and when I tried to open a link in other apps(like Google Search), it asked me for default apps opening the link. Even though I clicked the 'Always' button, it asked me constantly when I click some link the next time. I thought it may be a bug of Flyme so I flash AOSP ROM, but then the problem doesn't disappear!! I have tried Google Keep and other apps, and I have tried to install different browser. So it shouldn't be related to ROM or browser apps or apps with links. So what's the cause? It is REALLY annoying!!

Ps: I also find that the default search apps have the same issue. When I long press the home button it asks me to choose default search apps. When I click 'Always' it does become the default app but after some time it asks me again...
[Meizu M2 / M2 Mini Guides, News, & Discussion] broadways:
I'm on 4.5.4 International rooted (this version has a battery bug which was not present in 4.5.3I)

I've encountered some problems.

Removing meizu apps from the /system folder is breaking other apps

eg: If I remove meizu cloud service from /system then the music player auto shuts down after a second

Removing other meizu apps breaks 1) sms message app 2) entering phone contacts will auto close the app

I have also experienced a bootloop while removing one of the meizu apps but don't know which.

It seems that meizu has tied down its apps together with essential apps like phone and message who look for each other and auto shutdown when one is missing.

Anyone else tried removing meizu apps from /system without problems?

Guys, is "A" firmware multilanguages? Can I switch from "I" firmware version to "A"? thanks
[Meizu M2 / M2 Mini Guides, News, & Discussion] perqin:
'I' stands for International, and I think A is only for Asia.
[Meizu M2 / M2 Mini Guides, News, & Discussion] zyper95:
As far as I know, the "A" on the FlymeOS version stands for Android based but intended for China release. The "A" version is Android based with heavy skinned FlymeOS on top which include all Chinese bloatware. For the International version there are two versions for the "I" which is one for India (Indian version) and for International or Global released devices.
[Meizu M2 / M2 Mini Guides, News, & Discussion] zyper95:
To those who are on FlymeOS 4.5 and like to use Google Messenger instead of the default Flyme messenger app follow the steps below.

1. To fix this problem, you need to enter the “Engineering Mode” of the M2 by dialing number: * # * # 3646633 # * # * without a space.

2. under Telephony scroll down and look for BSPTelephonyDevTool and select it.

3. Under the Default Phone select Phone1 or Phone2 depending on what setup you are currently using. It will prompt "Reboot device to switch default phone? " press Yes.

After restart test to send an sms using Google Messenger it should work now (Tested it and it works!).

Lost my recovery

i have been trying to get the TWRP recovery to work on my meizu m2 and in the process i have lost the recovery all together, the device is booting and the working fine but i cant flash any ROM and TWRP is not working meaning when i try to enter the recovery mode i end up with the MEIZU logo with stays there for some time and then reboots to the OS. I cant change my ROM nor can i install the TWRP anymore as the fastboot oem unlock is not working. Any help ?????

This is what i get when i try to unlock

C:\ADB>fastboot oem unlock

...

Did you follow the steps on how to unlock the bootloader?
[Meizu M2 / M2 Mini Guides, News, & Discussion] LazySam:
yes i did and the step i am stuck at. I have quoted that above. I dont get the issue, the adb drivers are ok as the adb reboot bootloader command works and gets the device into fastboot mode, its the story after that which is not working for me.

[Meizu M2 / M2 Mini Guides, News, & Discussion] LazySam:
how to manage to unlock the bootloader, i am failing there as i also want to install CM on my M2
[Meizu M2 / M2 Mini Guides, News, & Discussion] zyper95:
If you can still boot to Flyme check if the unlock_bootloader.sh file is on the root folder then start all over again. This happens to me also, when I try to push the unlock_bootloader.sh to be copied to the root folder so what I did is copied the file directly then make sure ADB debugging is on, installed SuperSU, Busybox, and the device is rooted properly.

---------- Post added at 11:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:37 AM ----------

The default camera can only capture up to 8M. So far no ported camera available for our CM12.1 m2. I suggest that you just try to download other Camera app that you can use, me I use Camera MX (free).
[Meizu M2 / M2 Mini Guides, News, & Discussion] LazySam:
Yes i have manually copied the sh file to the sdcard and tried the whole process again still getting error when trying with fastboot oem unlock. If you had this problem earlier and have fixed it, can we talk on skype or something where you can help me out? I would really appreciate that....
[Meizu M2 / M2 Mini Guides, News, & Discussion] zyper95:
What Flyme version installed on your device? You should be running Flyme 4.5.4I in order to unlock the bootloader. If you are running Flyme 5 the unlock will not work.
[Meizu M2 / M2 Mini Guides, News, & Discussion] LazySam:
oh, i am running the Flyme 5 betas, how do you suggest i get over the international version???
[Meizu M2 / M2 Mini Guides, News, & Discussion] zyper95:
If you can still boot to Flyme stock recovery you need to downgrade to Flyme 4.5.4I by flashing the firmware. Download Flyme 4.5.4I from Flyme website then setup your phone normally and root it under Setting - Flyme Account. Once you are rooted install SuperSU and Busybox, and terminal emulator. If everything that you is already installed, follow the guide again to unlock the bootloader. Make sure that when you perform the steps you will not see any error during the unlocking process before flashing a custom recovery, if you flash a custom recovery can brick your device and you will need to send it for replacement board.
[Meizu M2 / M2 Mini Guides, News, & Discussion] LazySam:
Well i have tried that, because i hoped that if i do flash the firmware again, i would get the stock recovery back but since my recovery is gone i cant just install the firmware the old fashion way as i cant enter the recovery. If i try, i am welcomed with the Meizu logo which stays there for a while after which the device reboots and i am back in the OS. So, do you know some other way to flash the firmware. (tried just click and selecting wipe data too)
[Meizu M2 / M2 Mini Guides, News, & Discussion] zyper95:
If you have the Flyme 4.5.4I zip file extract the recovery.img file from the zip file, then follow the steps found here however this steps intended for Meizu M1 Note it might work for you. I just don't know if the Rashr - Flash Tool will work properly in Flyme 5 since this is a YunOS based firmware.
[Meizu M2 / M2 Mini Guides, News, & Discussion] LazySam:
I have no idea how to extract that, as i did have that idea and tried some stock recovery images that i found online but sadly nothing works. If you could find some time and upload the recovery.img, that would be helpful...
[Meizu M2 / M2 Mini Guides, News, & Discussion] zyper95:
Try to search on this thread, I think someone attach a stock recovery img file here that you can use to restore on your device.

Got problem. My device Meizu M2 Mini with firmware Flyme OS 4.5.4.2A.

I installed Security Center from Flyme 5 (dunno from which exectly ver. OS). It was worked fine, but sometimes stop launching, I had to reinstall it again. And today got same bug and can't even install, bcoz it says no space (but free space is more then 2 G).

I tryed restore backup via Titanium - process restore backup takes time forever ...

Got from friends copy of folder MzSecurity from System/App. Unzip and copy it there, try to set different permisinons - useless.

Downloaded firmware 4.5.4.2A from official site, flashed via stock recovery without problem, but still no security center.

What to go now? Any suggestions?
