I was curious to see the state of the official Marshmallow so I tried to flash the current chinese Marshmallow Beta. Getting gapps to work was quite the hassle with the original partition layout, so I want to outline my path to working gapps, although I don't recommend to follow it, if one wants to keep his sanity:

1. Backup everything (including IMEI and so on).

2. fastboot flash the Marshmallow MIUI build.

3. fastboot flash TWRP

4. TWRP flash SuperSU-v2.62-3-....zip

5. move a system uninstaller apk to the sdcard

6. boot for the first time. It takes very long, consumes a lot of power and the phone gets very hot, since Marshmallow compiles all apps to native code. If you want some indication of what is happening, connect the booting device to a PC and run "adb logcat | grep 'dex2oat'" or the equivalent to grep on your respective OS.

7. uninstall a few of the larger unneeded system apps like Browser, Games, Mail, Video, Voice, Wallet, Notes, Virtual SIM...

8. move the open_gapps pico and a text-file ".gapps-config" with the content:

CalSync

GoogleTTS

to your sdcard.

9. Reboot to TWRP and flash the pico-package.

10. ???

11. Profit!
[Mi 3 General] rikmukherjee:
Google play stopped working!

I flashed the fastboot file on my Mi3W but couldn't get the gapps to work. I'm on an extended partition. Do i flash benzo gapps? How stable is this rom on the MI3 ?

Is this fastboot rom already? It it is, then can you give us download links? Thanks..

It's not quite ready. I'm using it on my phone now but it's not quite stable and there are bugs here and there. Anyway here's a link https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B3iAEb0eoCm_QjVoUnBaV1RpM0k/view?pli=1 and don't forget to press thanks if you like it:D.

Not coming next week.

It is in alpha state, it will go to beta members first and then to public. These miui forum mods or members don't have any info about it.
[Mi 3 General] pumpa007:

[Mi 3 General] IAmKifayat:
Beta testing not started yet.

They haven't even released it to beta testers. Alpha only right now.

I installed the latest 12.24 alpha version (http://bigota.d.miui.com/5.12.24/miu...c7c2ed_6.0.zip) of MIUI 7 - MM (someone posted link on CM13 thread: http://xdaforums.com/show...&postcount=154)

I was on extended partition before. Everything succesfully got flashed in TWRP. But after rebooting system, phone died.

Connecting to PC I can see the device as QHUSUB (might have misspelled) and can see lots of drives connected (which it asks to format to use, which I won't as it ends up badly)

Any solution now? Otherwise like last time it got bricked, I will wait a day to battery get drained and than possibly hope for Fastboot to come back though I believe this issue can be fixed via PC only, not sure.

And I guess it got bricked due to extended partition as the ZIP probably merges both System.
[Mi 3 General] SenseiK:
If u have twrp then use a otg drive and flash a ROM just to get the device working...

Then reparation to stock then flash the ROM

Just push the zip through otg to the phone.
[Mi 3 General] Me_Ashish_:
The phone is dead, recovery and fastboot can't be accessed. I don't have usb org either.
[Mi 3 General] droidead:
i got same issue last night ,this morning just unbricked my phone.
[Mi 3 General] Me_Ashish_:
You mean it automatically got unbricked due to battery drain? Because thats what I'm waiting for right now. Though I don't get how it gets drained when phone is not running
[Mi 3 General] Me_Ashish_:
NVM, MiFlash detected the device and succefully flashed an fastboot ROM
[Mi 3 General] sushd99:
You did not read carefully. I said you need mi recovery and chinese developer rom first.

The links were in the post. (3rd link).

Good that you were able to unbrick your phone.
[Mi 3 General] mad-extrem:
Did u flash successfully... What r bugs...if anything goes wrong after merging systems.. How can we use fastboot ROM on it?
[Mi 3 General] sushd99:
No i havent tested yet...

These are alpha developer versions, there may be bugs...this cant be used as daily driver

The problem with extended system partition is mi flash and miui fastboot roms are not meant to work with single partition.

But since now xiaomi is officially merging partitions, they will update these to work with single partition.

Xiaomi will be rolling out beta developer updates in few days for testers..so its better to wait for that

Until then if you are on stock partition then stay if you dont require extended partition urgently.
[Mi 3 General] Me_Ashish_:
Yea lol, noticed now as you said that. The major bugs I recall from older version is not charging unless selinux change and balanced mode act as performance. I suppose beta ROM will only come after these get fixed.

Where you got the links from BTW?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fSl9xrR_J4g
[Mi 3 General] droidead:
no, mine got turned off , i flashed via cwm ,after succsefully flashing it, i reboot recovery and phone went off. Then put it on charging and no sign of charging, not even goin to fastboot mode or recovery... Then in morning i connected to laptop , mi flash detected some usb connection but not the device id, then i blindly flashed miui fastboot rom and it was successful even no device id was shown just a usb cnnection . but my device still wasnt powering on, then i installed mi suite and connect my device t it,, ah!! finally mi logo came up on screen and device was normal just all internal was gone
[Mi 3 General] dracy:
just wait for beta build, because alpha is very risky :eek:
[Mi 3 General] josedb:
remember you can always access the pins in the sim tray to recover the phone in any status. you dont need fastboot or any software in the phone to flash its memory.

ive been there
[Mi 3 General] luigieg:
Its not really risky if you know what to do. What is more of a concern are the bugs present (not charging...etc) since it is an alpha build.
[Mi 3 General] vinprivag:
has anyone tried the lastest alpha???is the random reboot fixed?
[Mi 3 General] IAmKifayat:

[Mi 3 General] hermansyah19:
Please be careful,

If you already flashed MIUI 7 android M successfully, it means that you'll be a little difficult to return back to Android K build.

I've noticed that the partition configuration will be updated when update to that ROM.

attached my last partition setting after update.
[Mi 3 General] ganeshrnet:
The latest version of miui 5.12.29 is pretty stable except for

1) mild battery drain. However Battery drain issue has come down by a great deal in past two weeks. I am not sure about the slow charging in the latest issue though.

2)bluetooth, midrop aren't working properly.

3) background data. Even after enabling the background data access to apps, the app fails to find Internet connection even it runs in the background. Torrenting, downloading files using etc won't work unless the app screen is kept on. On locking the phone the data connection is inaccessible for these apps

(goto settings - power and performance - Manage apps battery usage - set power saving mode to off. This will make sure that all background apps will get Internet)

4) cleaning apps will force quit them and it's mad to lock huge list of apps in the recent apps menu.
[Mi 3 General] hermansyah19:
I wonder where you guys found the download link of this alpha built?

I can't found what you've shared here on miui official forum.

Already on 15-12-29 built too.

Still can't feel MI fast charging feature like you.

Thanks
[Mi 3 General] ganeshrnet:
Btw i found the solution to fix background Internet connection problem.

goto settings - power and performance - Manage apps battery usage - set power saving mode to off. This will make sure that all background apps will get Internet.

Miui has a long list of confusing settings. They have 3 settings just for preventing background data access. Two in data usage menu and one in battery and performance menu. At least they could do a default settings as allow all. I pity the non techies. They will be in a mess using miui
[Mi 3 General] hermansyah19:
Glad to hear that. Actually I've done what you said when downloading some apps from play store.

But another things that I did beside set the power saving mode off, I've customized the each apps also.

Just make sure...

:)
[Mi 3 General] ganeshrnet:
Also i found another issue. While sharing any items using "share" option WhatsApp catches the shared item by default, no other other app is able to receive the item which we try to share.
[Mi 3 General] hermansyah19:
Just like I said on previous post.

Do you have any solution about that?
[Mi 3 General] ganeshrnet:
Nope.. Not found any. Hope they fix it soon. Also to expand an 'expandable notification' try pulling down the notification using TWO fingers
[Mi 3 General] hermansyah19:
I've tried to freeze the WhatsApp using rom toolbox, and the share feature works normally.

But.

It means we can't use WhatsApp when it's on freeze mode.

Hope there is a solution beside this one.

:)
[Mi 3 General] ganeshrnet:
Is there any way to fix the usb otg mount problem which is found in all marshmallow devices? We can't use usb otg just like as in lollipop or lower versions. Es can mount the usb otg but it is mounted as usb:// network protocol

Mx player or such 3rd party can't access anything on the otg device
[Mi 3 General] hermansyah19:
Sorry, No clue for that. Hope it'll fix on next build.

The official forum said that there is new build. 15.12.31

Do you have any link for that.

Hi! I have a AT&T LG G2 D800 unlocked and it is apparently stuck in the LG logo. When you turn on the phone you see the LG logo and the OS boot normally and if you lock the phone and the unlock it the screen goes black and the LG logo disappear. I try to manage the phone via the LG On Screen Phone and restore the factory settings but the problem still the same.

Also i try to do a soft and hard reset but i cant see anything else on the screen than the LG Logo. I dont think that the screen is broken because again...when i turn on or off the phone i saw the LG Logo on the screen

The phone is not rooted and i wasn't trying to install a custom firmware

Do you have any ideas?

Im just curious if this is true? Or how it was confirmed?

i know in the case of a laptop for example, it will reboot it, but i dont know if it thinks the battery was removed and reinserted. i can do that on my desktop too which has no battery.

Im just curious moreso for my moms phone... you can remove the door to get to your sim card or put in an Sd card.... but no battery there available to pull out (at least without a screwdriver).

Im also thinking for my phone, i can remove the battery, but with some of the cases i use its difficult to remove and replace them all the time, and i dont want to break them. so im thinking if theres a way to pull the battery without truly doing so.... would save some pain in the butt work lol.

[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hitokage_Tamashi:
If all goes well, I'll be getting the 8 inch version for Christmas, but I want to ensure it's worth the money, given the cost. Alternative is the Shield Tablet K1, which doesn't have enough storage (16 GB is way too limiting, even 32 is barely enough, and then there's the 2 GB of RAM, which apparently has become a bit low for Android .-.). Anyways, to the questions- does it perform well? Do apps stay in memory long? How well does it run heavy games, like Izanagi Online, Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, the new Aralon game, etc? How well does it run PPSSPP (I don't care too much about graphics on PPSSPP, if it can run games with fancy effects then sweet, if it can only run them at 480-720p, I'll live). Also, I do not plan to root it if I buy it (it's going to primarily be a gaming device, and a lot of games I play break when you root, and my dad may or may not have told me to stop rooting things...), so I'm mostly interested in how it is just stock. Finally, question wise, is it overall a good device that can be held onto for a few years without it feeling too outdated?
