[Xiaomi Redmi 3 Questions & Answers] jimaro:
Good story with your relative. It reminds me about how different we all use our devices and how subjective and personal the choice is.

In regards to Redmi 3 Pro. You are saying that it got MM and N is coming. Do you think this device will benefit from it? Do you have any experience with these ROMs and how they perform? Are you talking about CM builds? I'm sticking with MIUI -- which is not that bad on performance and battery life that can get you a 9-10 SOT. But I'm pretty tempted to see what else is out there. I would love to have a well performing CM - my fav ROM so far.
[Xiaomi Redmi 3 Questions & Answers] vlt96:
I'm not sure what to expect from Android N, really... Lollipop was a major update, but Marshmallow didn't deserve a +1 in Android version, nor in the name. It could have easily been Android 5.2. At least on my Moto G, the only noticeable difference was in the fact that pulling up from the home button no longer worked, but long press did, which in cases where the phone froze and you pressed the home button to get back, it would freeze for even more while loading Now on tap.

At the moment, any phone with Android M would do fine until the next big update. Redmi 3 seems to have got a enthusiastic developer of CM, but I really don't know how it would compare to stock. I just hate all the MIUI bloat.

I had different experiences with my devices on CM:

LG P500: way ahead in both performance and and battery and features. The development on that phone was amazing.

Galaxy S3 mini: battery was a little better, but it wasn't as smooth and the memory management was worse than touchwiz.

Moto G: a little more features. It has vanilla Android and official updates were faster than custom ROMs in the past.

MIUI 8 seems to be a step into a more vanilla Android, but as Xiaomi isn't updating their devices with new Android versions, I really don't know what to say. I love this phone, but touchwiz and MIUI 8 look pretty similar in some regards, and that makes me afraid of CM not being as smooth.
[Xiaomi Redmi 3 Questions & Answers] jimaro:
Interesting point about Android's versions. I haven't analysed it that well. For me it is important to have the best performance for the device while preserving a good battery life. I was on CM 12.1 on my Galaxy S4+ i9506.

At the moment I'm not ready to compromise stability or 2-3h of SOT. I'm not sure how good CM is ATM but I think I will give it a try in a month or so.

As for the bloatware, I can warmly recommend you the SpaceX/Manh_IT build which has striped down most of it. On top of it, being pre-rooted, you can uninstall a lot more manually. Here is a list of apps that I have removed.
[Xiaomi Redmi 3 Questions & Answers] vlt96:
Does SpaceX work on locked bootloader? I'm pretty lazy. Bonus points if it can be flashed via the Update app.

My view on Android versions is pretty subjective, as I ran Froyo, Gingerbread, Ice cream sandwich and all versions of jelly bean on my old LG Optimus One. I have seen the OS go from a laggy mess with no standards, where vanilla Android needed hundreds of optimisations and changes and options to even compare to current Android, to a version where most CM 7 features got built in the vanilla Android and the new ones integrated seamlessly in the settings app. CM no longer felt like an app, it felt like Android + more options.

Then Lollipop came around and it was awesome, great, smooth, optimised. But I was more excited about the white status bar in KitKat (I really was excited about that, a lot, I hated the blue tint of Android) than I am for all the changes since 5.1. It's just... The OS has matured, the hardware is hell of a lot better bang for buck. I got a Zenpad S which comes with Lollipop and an unofficial promise from ASUS that it will never get any more updates (and 0 community support, thanks to Intel), and I'm not even mad. ASUS follows the Google model of updating via play store and service app updates. So it's pretty much a fully supported device until they stop supporting Lollipop in apps or until they make another major UI update.
[Xiaomi Redmi 3 Questions & Answers] jimaro:
Yes, it works but you need to flash it via fastboot using a PC. MiFlash is required and easily available. It always worked for me and only had trouble a bit at the beginning when I was trying to flash via download mode. This action required installing unsigned drivers, which took some effort on Win10.

Open source has its trouble but obviously has it's advantages. There are many cases similar to Android/ CM. One that amused me is JavaScript/ CoffeeScript. Even though JS is not opensource, CS is opened to the community and more importantly, well adopted. This made JS ES6 (latest standard) to implement most of the CS features into standard vanilla JS -- after half of decade.

Good to hear you are maintaining yourself sane! And reasonable as well. You don't always need the last version of Android. Does your device behave? Does it deliver the expected performance and battery life? Is the interface something that doesn't make your life a hell? Or better, that aids in your daily quests? Well, you've got it. Fanaticism is not sane.
[Xiaomi Redmi 3 Questions & Answers] vlt96:
I've already flashed stuff with miflash, I'm just not sure how to flash flashable zips.

The Zenpad is disappointing. I bought the tablet to replace my phone on mobile stuff that required more RAM. But a 4000 mAh battery on a 2K screen and an Intel CPU bring me 1-2 hours of screen time... It's a fine tablet, ASUS has a talent at separating the battery from the rest. Both the laptop and the tab can have the CPU go to 100°C while the battery is 30°C. Which is great on battery life, too bad the tablet has it horrible to begin with. I mean, I can do hardcore gaming on battery on my laptop for longer than I can scroll Facebook on the tablet. And the laptop has a 3000 mAh battery.

Oh, that wasn't on topic. Yet, ZenUI is an OK skin, it's just vanilla Android with round icons and IMO some very useful features.

Unlike MIUI which is a way to bypass Google in China, which actually makes it worse after you make Google work...

Or touchwiz, which pushes you 10 useless features for every remotely useful one (on my S3 mini, the only feature I missed when I switched to CM was... Mono audio in headphones)
[Xiaomi Redmi 3 Questions & Answers] _Derk_:
May be it's a black box but I hope that it's a little better than some "left behind devices".

Regarding unlocking of LTE bands - no one had any success on any of the Xiaomi phones to unlock a band.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] binuralka:
Hello it seems to me that after I installed latest xposed fr. with gravitybox in my stock android 6 - my device became little more powe hungry than before... Do you think it could be true?

From my experience with many marshmallow roms that I tested recently, stock beats them all with ease (comparing battery) - NOT KIDDING! Even simple CM13 cant get along. How is it possible, are all devs blind? Or is it a compromise to all these feauteres (Nah! I dont use) ?

As for gravitybox, it works fluently and nicely... To tell the truth I really love it...:good:
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Snowby123:
With the xposed mods I am using battery life has been extroardinary on marshmallow. Gravity box should have minimal influence on the battery, if any. If you want exemplary battery life, follow the extreme battery life thread. Also use the basic battery saving mode that was introduced in lollipop
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] binuralka:
It really is so! After some time I can see that battery is just as it used to be when I installed clean stock 6. Also I started to use battery saver mode (original one), added a custom francos kernel and tweaked cpu maximum from 1512 to 1350Mhz and did some little undervolting (25mV offset). Devices speed is as usual, very fast and responsive. Also i added a parrotmode for better screen calibration for touches.

Am I missing something for a better battery?

Enable notification light on Moto G 4 Plus [Root Required]

Hey,

After a little experimentation, I found that you can use the Light Flow Legacy app to control the led. (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rageconsulting.android.lightflowlegacy&hl=en)

Once you've installed it, you must give notification access.

Go to menu > settings > Device Settings and Root > check "root mode" and "run every command as root".

Then go to menu > settings > LED control > Additional LEDs found > check "charging control"

Now, go to menu > notification settings > click the 3-dot menu on any of the items in the list > settings

In the next screen, swipe right to find a tab called Light. Find charging LED and click on it. You'll have an option of turning it "solid".

You also have an option to set its brightness, but that setting didn't change the led's brightness.

On the top right corner, you have an option called "Test". Click on that and switch off your display.

You should see the charging led light up.

Cheers.

I'm just curious but why is that small, barely visible in full light led any better than a notification turning your screen on.
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] leif2:
For the simple fact I would notice my phone blinking at me without having to pick it up. I'm not sure I can explain it better than that other than without this feature I would be picking up my phone all the time for fear I have a missed message. I don't want to be doing this.

Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks!
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] shiloh4565:
It only light up the screen when you first get the notification. If you missed it, the only way to access is to physically move the Moto g4. A pulsing light is always on. The amoled moto's have the consistent pulse notifications which sought of makes the light unnecessary. I too hope moto will activate this feature in a future update.
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] AlbertDude:
Thanks to Sai_D for the configuration info for Light Flow Legacy. Works for me on XT1641 (rooted of course).

I had installed it earlier but didn't have it configured properly and so it wasn't working.

Notification LED + Active Display is a great combo -- the LED tells you that you have a notification and then a simple nudge of the phone activates the display so you can see what it is.

[Xposed Framework Modules] glauberlima:
VERY IMPORTANT: This module applies to brazilian users only

Good news: TIM has changed its mind - as of version 3.0.21 root checking routine has been removed so this module is now obsolete.

Hi everyone!

TIM has decided to include a root checking mechanism in its MEU TIM app which won't run if the customer's device is rooted.

This module simply solves this by disabling that root checking so brazilian customers with rooted devices will be able to use the app.

PT-BR section:

Módulo para Xposed Framework v84+ que remove a verificação de root executada pelo aplicativo MEU TIM, permitindo que o usuário consiga utilizá-lo normalmente.

Ao abrir o aplicativo MEU TIM o seguinte aviso é exibido, caso seu dispositivo Android esteja com o modo root habilitado:

"Esse celular não possui as configurações de fábrica. O aplicativo MeuTIM não pode ser executado em celulares modificados."​

To run this module your system must meet these requirements:

- Rooted Android device running version 4.2+

- Xposed Framework v84+

Source code:

https://github.com/glauberlima/MEUTIM-RootCheckingRemover

Download:

http://repo.xposed.info/module/br.com.glauber.android.xposed.meutim_rootcheckingremover

If you need any help feel free to ask. :)

Its only use root cloaker and the problem its solved.

Long story short:

I have a OnePlus2, I can boot in Fastboot mode and my PC does recignize the fastboot device.

fastboot oem device-info says that Bootloader is locked and when I try to unlock (fastboot oem unlock) it states "okay" but cannot boot into system because there is none installed. -> Bootloop

I cannot boot into recovery nor install a recovery due to the locked bootloader.

Is there a way to unlock the bootloader in fastboot and/or install a boot.img?

Complete text of the GUIDE

Edited and posted it above. Good luck with the rooting. Thanks!
[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] patrioticparadox:
An excellent guide. I'd spent the last few hours reading post after post gathering the correct information for the T817T specifically. I had come to the same basic conclusion as your guide states but its great to have some confirmation! I have a few differences in my install process than you did though. I did things in this order:

Enable developer options:

Copy bootloader and SuperSu to tablet:

THEN

Flash TWRP recovery software:

and between 6 and 7

Uncheck AutoReboot in the Options tab

7. Press "Start" button and wait for Green "PASS" message to appear

8. Use Power+VolumeDown+Home to reboot from bootloader and AS SOON as the screen goes black slide your finger from VolumeDown to VolumeUp

This should boot you into TWRP

Flash custom bootloader with TWRP:

after 4:

press "add another zip" and select the SuperSU zip as well.

5. Verify install with slider

6. Reboot

Done

By booting directly into TWRP the stock recovery doesn't have a chance to overwrite it. It won't need to be flashed a second time. You can also flash the kernel (...boot.zip) and SuperSU zip in the same pass. Saves a couple steps.

Either way I can confirm this works and all of the files are correct!

Thanks again for organizing all of this and making this great guide!
[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phduhblog:
I'm glad you have figured out another way! This is turning into what a proper thread on rooting should look like :D

I had actually tried the non-auto-reboot from Odin method too, but couldn't time the change to VOLUME UP correctly. After a couple times I just gave up and tried things the long way around. Never thought to flash the zip files in the same TWRP session though. I generally like doing things the long way around and getting confirmation that things still work after each and every step. Whatever works though!
