[Xiaomi Mi 4C] Finners:
To me that number looks like its a custom build from Gearbest and you should be careful in case they have installed any malware etc on the phone. Where are you from?

My question now. I want to try CM12.1 on my Mi4c but I'm currently trying to sort out a Mi account issue with the place I brought the phone from.

If I do a TWRP back up of my current Miui install, Wipe everything and install CM 12.1 just to have a play with over the weekend. To get back to miui can I just wipe everything again and restore from my back up?

[MENTION=6543050]morphicts[/MENTION] have you heard of chroma ROM? Probably one of the best ROMs reported by Nexus users. Was solid on my Nexus 4. Since you guys are porting roms, can you consider this? It's a great aosp based rom.

TWRP 2.8.7.1 Wiped cache and dalvik. Installed ROM over mine MiuiPro. The same result :(

Should I format system before?

Even VPN doesn't help me :(
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] leledumbo:
Safe for our device? Yes. For others? No. Remember, the USB Type-C port in Mi4c is actually a USB 2.0 port with type-C connector. The cable happily follows that. Devices expecting real USB Type-C cable will fail and may brick due to incompatible electricity.
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] ice-it:
Yeah, maybe is better to do a clean flash, so format system and cache...

Hi guys.

I've issue with my theme manager. Preview doesnt show up and i cant download themes. Even i tried to import the mtz files i've download from pc still doesnt work. Already tried clear data and reboot..

My Mi4c running on MIUI 7 Stable version 7.1.6.0 (LXKCNCK), rooted.
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] ermacwins:
Does anyone suddenly find some of there photos being all black in the gallery with any ROMs? I noticed this with 2 cm ROMs now
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] andrei80:
Just installed MIUI 7.1.6.0 because v8 had bad battery life and phone was getting hot(wiped cache/system/data before and after flash, installed xiaomi.eu ROM). Now heat and battery seem ok, but I have found that inserting headphones(the default in-ear mic+3controls wired Huawei P8 lite headset) didn't mute the speaker, so that I could hear sounds in the headphones AND in the speaker. Sleeping wife wasn't pleased...

Found a workaround by using Soundabout app, it has a DETECT function and makes phone behave as it should(media+notifications headset only, ringtone speaker only).

The question was, is that a "normal" behaviour, does this phone work right with just the Mi headphones(also considering MIUI 7 is installed, didn't try headphones with v8), or did something mess up during instalation? I am thinking of the fact that I have restored full Mi account backup after flash.

Anyone knows how to install MAGISK on mi4c?
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dpeponis:
The problem is the following: I unlock the phone and I see that the phone is searching for network. No Data is active, only wifi. After a few seconds, the SIM card welcome message appears. That translates into a sim card unregistration and re-registration. Is it a random problem or a systematic one?
[Samsung Gear S2] h2osun:
I have tried downloading tracks to my Gear S2 according to the instructions without success. After about 15 seconds I get," Failed to Send tracks to your Gear" in addition to status notification. I have even gone to removing and reinstalling all of the Samsung gear related apps and factory resetting the watch. No luck.<br />

Everything else is working fine, including Milk Music connected to my phone. <br />

Any suggestions?
[Samsung Gear S2] KubixRevan:
Do You have WiFi turned on both on watch and the smartphone?
[Samsung Gear S2] h2osun:
So I explored different combinations of Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. Basically, the watch will only be connected to the phone through Bluetooth. Any other combination causes the gear manager menu to be mostly grayed out.

The crazy thing is I can load photos (which are on my sd card as well as my music) no problem. It is only the music tracks I can't load from the phone to the watch.
[Samsung Gear S2] KubixRevan:
Yeah, basically You will need to have BT connection to initiate photo/music send. Then the smartwatch will connect with smartphone via WiFi Direct, if both devices have WiFi turned on. If not, they will try to send those files via BT. But whenever You have connection like WiFi(GearS2) and WiFi(phone) or WiFi(GearS2) and mobile connection(phone) and no BT then You cannot initiate the sending or do other stuff (only check the smartwatch status, find it or change notifications).

You could try the 'Filesmaster' app, tho it's a paid app. It let's You share files from Your phone to the Gear S2 simply by pressing Share->Filesmaster. Then on the phone You can manage the folders and files and if You copy them to the 'Music' folder it should be working.
[Samsung Gear S2] obsydian:
Works but it painfully slow with music
[Samsung Gear S2] h2osun:
So the issue is with having a rooted phone. I paired the watch with someone else's phone...no issues. Then I loaded the original stock Rom on my phone...no problems with using my gear and loading music. So I had to make the decision to go back to stock. But after weighing the options...decided to stay stock so I can use my watch.
[Samsung Gear S2] Zenoran:
It's brutally slow! I think it's best to just queue up a transfer before you go to bed and have it all ready in the morning. There is apparently some auto sync like that but I haven't figured out how to make playlists to sync.
[Samsung Gear S2] zigismall:
Yes, transfer music files by Filesmaster takes long time, probably by Bluetooth limitation. Maybe it should work by WIFI connection too. I will write to filesmaster author to ask for that.

The best way would be transfer by usb cable but now way in case S2.
[Samsung Gear S2] wase4711:
I cant find filesmaster in the samsung gear app store; how do you get it to show up?

thanks
[Samsung Gear S2] KubixRevan:
This is a paid app, so since You cannot see it, I guess You don't have a Samsung phone. And for now it is needed in order to see those apps... :-/
[Samsung Gear S2] wase4711:
thanks, whats weird is I can see other paid apps in the Samsung store, as I have a Samsung account and I used to have several samsung phones, but, for some reason, cant see the filesmaster app...

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Martini3001:
Other way to disable the notification:

- press the notification long (2 sec.)

- touch the "i" (information-icon)

- uncheck notification switch.

It should bring the same result chichu_9 told us in #2.

Note: I still get important notifications (email, sms, alarm, etc). Give it a try. :)

This method does not disable notifications or services, but disables the OTA cert. Credit to the OP.

Hi all wanted to share details about the Magic Stick

https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/magicstick-most-powerful-pc-stick-8gb-ram/x/4042531#/

On face value it seems that it's just another compute stick which there are many out there... however actually it appears to be a well thought out product that addresses alot of the shortcomings of compute sticks in general. For example they are Cherry Trail based, have AC wireless, even USB 3.1!

They even go right up to 8GB RAM and 128GB storage... every other stick I have seen just have a pitiful 2GB RAM and 32GB ROM, which is going to be non-existant when Windows is loaded... Anyway finally somoeone has come out with something that is actually useable and due to be delivered next month!

Thanks.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] chunkymonkey:
Simple answer is:

if you haven't already, install this to protect against damage (your sig says you've done this though): http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=296722

Then, as you say, install each and assess it for your opwn preferences. There is no 'best' one, it depends what you want or need.

As to the dialler, there are a number attached to threads. A quick search should find that so you can add it in.

I recommend using matt's Pandora kitchen as it's an easy-to-use DIY kitchen that lets you select what you want in the ROM in the first place: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=316881

[Nexus 6P General] droidguy22:
Using N6P for the last few days, N6P sound output from the headphone jack is poor, it gets loud but quality is lacking, N6P doesn’t even have the power to drive high efficiency headphones (high sensitivity (dbl/mW or dbl/W) and low impedance (ohms)), I listen on my Triple Fi 10 headphones (Input Sensitivity - 117dB/mW; Impedance - 32 ohms) and the sound quality is disappointing.

I am coming from N6, N6 has very good sound quality from the headphone jack, N6 has the power to drive my Triple Fi 10 and doesn’t need an Amp.

PhoneArena measured the N6 at .98 volts and the 6P is .34 volts, for comparison IP6+ is 1.014 volts

See below comments from Head-fi forum about the poor sound quality:

“The 6P's sound is extremely forward and punchy, but has a real digital grittiness to it. Almost like running through a preamp with the gain wound up too far, with a weird high mid resonance that eventually becomes fatiguing. The weird grit sort of reminds me of my motherboard's onboard Realtek sound, from circa mid-2000s. It feels like the frequency response is not flat at all, I'm expecting tests to show a big peak around high mids to low treble. It's kind of like listening on cheap earbuds.”

http://www.head-fi.org/t/785067/nexus-5x-and-6p-sound-quality/30

I hate to return N6P as I love the phone otherwise, but sound quality is very important to me as I listen to music a lot.
[Nexus 6P General] Jamie bell:
The 6p has so many strong points, wouldn't it be worth using a headphone amp instead of returning the entire thing? Obviously that won't solve audio quality, but investing in an iPod or a walkman isn't too bad when your then able to use IMO the best android phone of 2015...

[Nexus 6P General] droidguy22:
Bluetooth is not there yet in terms of music quality, I have tried and returned 10 -12 bluetooth headphones in the last year including Jay bird x, they are no match to the good quality wired headsets like my Triple Fi 10, you won’t get any sound stage on Bluetooth headphones.

Sony’s new high resolution Bluetooth headphones are promising but it needs LDAC codec support on the phone, also these headphones are expensive at $399.

If you wish to listen to music "as musicians intended" then you can only get inside their collective heads to hear it. Everything else is influenced and changed by acoustics, recording, engineering and production.
[Nexus 6P General] droidguy22:
agree that 6p has many strong points, but amp defeats the portability, a premium phone ($700 - 128gb with tax) in 2015 should give a decent sound quality, what's the point of 128gb storage if it can't output decent sound.
[Nexus 6P General] droidguy22:
the way you described is not possible, that's why you want to buy a device with better DAC and use good quality headphones and you can be as close as possible to the musicians intent..
[Nexus 6P General] droidguy22:
you are not so bright, are you?

Why Bluetooth Audio Used To (and Still Largely) Sucks:

The problem with Bluetooth audio has always been digital compression: in order to send your audio to your headphones, you were forced to sacrifice quality. Traditionally, especially on older devices and with older Bluetooth versions, this meant the sound was so badly compressed that the result sounded robotic, buzzy, noisy, and all around awful. Listening to podcasts and spoken word through them wasn't a big deal, but when it came to music, they were just the worst. You got none of the richness or warmth of sound that a pair of wired headphones offers.

if you're the type who really enjoys listening—and I mean actively listening—to music on high-quality headphones, and you use terms like "soundstage" and "frequency response" to judge one pair of headphones over another, you may be disappointed, especially when you compare your wireless listening experience to a wired one.

[Nexus 6P General] kboya:
My comment was not a flame. The difference is that I see all this as impossible for the very reasons I gave. Perhaps Steve Albini can make this clearer: http://www.soundonsound.com/sos/sep05/articles/albini.htm
[Nexus 6P General] Jamie bell:
I understand that you expect a flagship premium phone to give you a good listening experience which is why its such a shame about the 6p... As many flaws as it has, I do really like my HTC One M9 for its audio as the speakers are amazing (maybe not as good as the m8's) and it has a hirez DAC which coupled with my ATH MSR7s is sooooo crisp!

I'm not a full blown audiophile, but I appreciate good sound and hate having to put up with bad sound quality like aeroplane headphones, so I feel your pain :(

Maybe if you're looking for a phone instead of the 6p you should get the Z5 as it has a hirez DAC and cannot be faulted anywhere as it is an amazing phone (excluding what extreme Z series users say about the battery life being worse than the Z3 and the 810 heat issues...)

Wow, this was a long post :)

[Nexus 6P General] anglerstock:
The so called reviewers are usually creative writing majors, or failed journalists that dreamed of working for NY Times but failed badly and ended up working for some blog or opened a youtube channel. Worst case scenario those reviewers get promised a free phone if they advertise the phone as the dream phone and they end up with reviews like the ones we saw for this nexus.

You should lighten up a lil bit. I'm very well aware of how music works as I recorded, produced, and performed myself quite a bit in my day. Lol you people when you get on the internet turn into monsters.

I'm just not a snob about how my phone plays my music. I've got a fantastic Yamaha HS5 setup in my office hooked up to my pc, and a very sufficient stock bose setup in my 2015 Impala ltz if I am really craving the quality. But for my phone?

Maybe because majority of people are already listening to compressed music files through car bluetooth. More people use the camera than the headphone jack.

[Nexus 6P General] AJZ12:
I noticed this today when I was messing with the built in equalizer settings. It is only like that when connected via Bluetooth or the headphone jack. The sound gets quieter when the equalizer is turned on. It is the complete opposite for the speakers. The sound gets louder when the equalizer is turned on. I have only noticed this with Google Play Music. Both connections has been tested via my Bose AE2W wireless headphones (I think they have been rebranded to have a different name now) and the generic bluetooth adapter connected to my aux port in my car. It's the same for both.
[Nexus 6P General] slowpok22:
Agreed, haven't tried on this phone, on the 3 previous phones, viper4android has turned them from mediocre to fantastic with a good pair of headphones, but then again If you really want high quality tunes you'd have one of those players that Neil Young works on, but not too many bands recording that high end.
