[Redmi Note 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hugoprh:
I have the Note 3 and regret it, should have gone for the Note 2 and my reasons are:

Pros of the Note 3 vs Note 2

- Battery

- Metal Build

Cons Note 3:

- Fingerprint sensor only has one use, which is to turn on the screen, you can't use with anything else...

- No expandable storage

- And the main one, that is driving me mad is the locked bootloader, you can unlock it, but you have to request the code on their website, but to get this code you have to wait a long time, some are saying 14+ days and you might not be selected, like if you have to be special to get it, WTF Xiaomi???

So if you don't care about the plastic build, go for the Note 2, it's cheaper, with expandable storage, faster CPU on the Prime model and a freaking unlocked bootloader.

[Redmi Note 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hugoprh:
Yep, already tried all the guides, but the "MiFlashUnlock.exe" tool always says that I need to have a unlock code assigned to my MI account, so, on MiFlashUnlock.exe, when I login to my MI account, it fails straight away saying that my code request is still under review and to be patient...

So, unfortunately that guide only works once you have a unlock code assigned to you MI account.

The first link does say this:

"Notes:

1. After getting unlocking permission for a Mi account, users can unlock the verified device immediately."
[Redmi Note 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iffydev:
Depends on your use

As fas as features and battery life goes then Redmi Note 3 is a better option, but still better to with the 32GB ROM/3GB RAM version. But if you are of tose who use their phone for consuming and storing lots of media, then i would recommend Redmi Note 2 as it has a memory card slot, which the Redmi NOte 3 lacks.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jomassolutions:
Hello XDA, I have been a user/fan of xda for about 5 yrs now. But I havent found a single problem that I didnt find the

answer for here on xda, or somewhere else (Google). I have a Computer and Phone repair shop in Ethiopia and I used the

internet and mostly XDA to Unlock Sprint HTCs, Unbrick Galaxy S/ SII/ SIIIs, repair corrupted efs partitions, install

custom roms like CM (on almost every smartphone I come around), fix bootloops of Best devices like Xperia Z, Galaxy SIII,

Sim unlock Moto Droid ...

But I have faced a serious problem and have been trying to solve it for about three months now.

To the real problem

There Are these MTK MT6582 Devices, Mostly Huawei devices (G730, G610, G630) and they are recently getting a major IMEI

failure (IMEI : null). I have tried through the ff methods (that I use for other MTK devices like MT6572, MT6575) With no

luck

1. Maui Meta 3G - It reads the devices in meta mode

- It can read the version (in "Get Version" window)

- I have selected the Nvram database of same baseband

- It fails to write the imei when I click "download to flash" It either replays "Check the load and device versions are the same (ish)" or "Download to flash time out"

2. IMEI & SN Write tool - Doesn't seem to read the device in meta mode.

3. MTK Droid - Rooted the device

- Restored "nvram" from another working phone

- Rewritten the IMEI

- Still the same (IMEI: Null)

4. Reformatted the whole device and installed firmware with "secro" file - Still the same - tried the above methods again, still the same.

Dear XDA Fellows, I am exhausted with these devices and they are keeping coming. So, Please help me solve these problem. Thank You.

P.S - I dont know where to post this, if there is another appropriate thread, lead me.

[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Flippy498:
That is incorrect. Beta versions have three numbers behind the last dot in their version numbers*. Firmware versions of the same SKU can differ if different CIDs are used. That's the case with 1.32.401.17 and 2.11.708.27 which both got distributed for only one CID although their SKUs are used by several CIDs.

I don't have the needed backup. And since no one else provided a backup, yet, you either have to buy the sunshine app, find someone with a java card/an xtc clip or you'll have to use Llabtoofer's RUU service. None of these solutions is available for free.

* Some examples which got distributed publicly although they're Beta versions: 2.10.401.180 or 2.11.708.180
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rihz:
I am about to flash my nexus 5 device.

I was wondering.. if i unlock the bootloader and install a custom recovery plus create a backup.. that means ill have basicly a backup on my phone of a factory ROM and kernel right ?

So If i play around with custom roms and Kernels does that mean if I want to go back to stock kernel or/and ROM I can just recover my backup files from ,for example, CWM ?

And also if anyone here knows... how big difference can a kernel for battery life extension make ?

Then..

If I want to flash both.. Custom ROM and Kernel.. Rom comes first ? And if after that .. lets say I have flashed Cyanogenmod , and I have decided to change ROMs , Do I have to flash factory ROM ? Or I can just factory reset and Flash ir over the Cyanogenmod ?

For example.. for elementalX kernel I read this line... "You should only flash ElementalX over the kernel that came with your ROM!!!" I assume that means I do flash the ROM first... and what if I want to change Kernels later on? I re-flash the factory kernel ? And how do I do that?

For now that would be it

Thanks
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
Yes, installing a custom recovery (I recommend TWRP) allows you to create a backup of the existing ROM for restoration at a later point in time if you don't like the phone's existing ROM. Restoring TWRP backups have always worked except for me except in a couple of situations where I could not boot the restored ROM without first doing a factory wipe of the data and cache partitions.

I can't comment on custom kernels except to say that everyone uses their phone in different ways and getting the best battery life and performance may require a lot of tweaking. You could just try different kernels to see which one suits your needs.

You can restore the ROM's original kernel by extracting the kernel from the original ROM and flashing it. Alternatively, you could dirty flash the over the existing ROM. For example, if you are running CM12.1 2015-12-30 with a custom kernel and you want to go back to CM12.1 2015-12-30 without the custom kernel, you could just re-flash the entire CM12.1 2015-12-30 ROM again.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rihz:
Thanks!

What advantages does TWRP has over CWM ? And also does it recover other files as well or just the system ones ?

And I guess its safer to just extract the original ROMs kernel.. Just how do i do that ?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
TWRP is well supported and features a simple touch interface. TWRP will recover the system and data files.

Not necessarily safer to flash just the kernel rather than the entire ROM. It also saves time and effort because, if the kernel is not extracted and compiled for flashing in recovery, it could cause the phone to bootloop.

I've never extracted the kernel myself but this may help: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rLhprnOF6-U
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rihz:
Thanks!

So.. If, lets say, I flash cyanogenmod. Then Flash custom kernel. In order to change other kernel which is also custom , I should first flash the factory ROM which will have kernel on it ? And then reflash the ROM and then flash the new kernel ?

Im sorry , I also read a lot about this and somewhere on the way got really confused , haha.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
Let's assume you flash CM version 1 and then you flash custom kernel "Kernel A". If you want to try another custom kernel named "Kernel B", you could just flash "Kernel B" over "Kernel A". If the developer of "Kernel B" cays it must be flashed over CM's original kernal, you could still flash "Kernel B" over "Kernel A" and hope it works. If it doesn't work, you could dirty flash CM version 1 over the existing ROM, then flash "Kernel B".
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rihz:
Thank you. Made things much clearer. Dirty flash means just flashing over the existing custom ROM and Kernel right?

And also.. What about if i have CM and Kernel B ... But i want to go change to ParanoidAndroid and still keep the Kernel B? This ROM would remove the Kernel and I would have to re flash ir right?

And also if I am just switching around ROMs only.. I can just flash them one over another? Perhaps a factory reset is healthy in between though.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
Dirty flash means flashing over the existing ROM without wiping the system in recovery.

Flashing any ROM over an existing ROM will replace the system and kernel. If you want to change ROMs altogether, you'd flash PA and then flash Kernel B.

When changing ROMs, I always recommend a full wipe (i.e. system, data, cache).
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rihz:
Alright. And just one last thing that I got a bit confused of..

When I root and install a custom ROM, I am not going to receive OTAs. If I just flash the newest custom ROM does that work as an update? Or the newest ROM can ble flashed over the newest android? If so... How do I exactly get the newest updates manually? I have to flash to factory ROM and then somehow flash the update? By far thats how I understood it.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wangdaning:
Depends on which rom, but updates to custom roms generally can just be flashed over. Not sure of the MM jump, but from KK to LP, it worked fine so far. Whatever you do read the instructions of the rom and kernel builders. You get lucky sometimes and can dirty flash things that should not be dirty flashed, but if there are issues, there are instructions on the rom or kernel page how to start again.

If you are factory modified and want a factory image you need to flash in fastboot. If on a custom rom, well, like I said follow their advice. Make sure to backup with recovery and save on computer before doing anything.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rihz:
Okay, thanks!

And Happy New year to you all!
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] shawndh:
Seems my proxy settings just change intermitently. When I go to connect to the internet, I get messages saying cannot connect to server or similar. When I check the proxy settings, they've changed from what I've set it to along with the port setting as well. Seems to default to "ps7" everytime.

I'm using Meshle's O2 WM6 ROM but I don't believe the ROM is the problem because I had the same issues with my original WM5 ROM. Seems to just be on the Artemis. I'm using the same settings I had on my iPaq and my wifes MDA and neither of them have problems keeping the port & proxy settings the same.

Anyone else have the problem? I'm beginning to think that it's the Mini Opera browser but I have the problem in both IE and MO.

I don't have any idea for this.

I loved CM-based ROM and I would stay on it as long as it doesn't have any major bugs.

For MIUI by gtbluesky, use CWM. Or you can remove 'assert' word on first paragraph until 'abort{This is for ja3g...}' on updater-script file.
