[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] sg28:
Hi guys,

I have received an update lately (MIUI Gloval 8.1 Stable - 8.1.1.0) and my struggle began. My problem is that now every time if I touch the fingerprint sensor the phone unlocks. It's REALLY annoying guys. Sometimes I lock my phone and put it down and the screen unlocks because accidently I touched it. Fingerprint is disabled, furthermore I have no lockscreen whatsoever have enabled. The fingerprint sensor at the back acts exactly like the unlock button on the side. How the hell can I disable this annoying function?

Thanks !!!
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] corkiejp:
Settings - Lock Screen & Password - Manage Fingerprints - Enter Password if you have one - Apply Fingerprint to Lock Screen - choose disable?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] TechNova:
Fingerprint wakes up the device if u haven't added any fingerprints.

That's a thing in marshmallow MIUI (even on the beta builds), it's not a bug, tapping on fp without any registered FPs wakes up the screen.

Furthermore, u said that there's 'NO LOCKSCREEN' you kept(so i assume there's neither swipe to unlock screen) so fp is waking your device everytime,and consequently,screen gets unlocked.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] sg28:
I see. Any way to completely disable this function? I dont want that sensor to work at all.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] kosrica:
Me too, I have the same problem, the fp sensor wakes up the screen when I'm touching it accidentally most of the time. How can we disable this annoying "feature"?

hi everyone, my droid turbo drains battery on stand by stated as "cell standby". this problem was on lollipop and after the update it is still almost same. it drains like 10-13% overnight. any solutions pleas?
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh] hamzaalijoiyah:
Having the exact problem on lollipop, haven't upgraded yet cause I plan to unlock bootloader sometime. Even my Moto X 2014 used to give me more battery life, though it had a tiny 2300mAh battery. I was thinking maybe I had a bad battery but now I don't seem to be the only one having this trouble. Maybe you should try Greenify & Amplify. There are also some pretty good Battery Saving mods available on XDA, go give them a shot.

[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Deleted member 4819888:
Because you're running stock rom. Stock rom encrypts internal storage, which is why twrp forgets settings, and can't access data from internal storage. If you use it on omni for example it works fine.
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] ammarr:
Is there a working version of omnirom for XC?

WUT? My apologies :eek:

it's weird that it's the only thread missing, maybe because there are no posts other than OP?

I just wrote something there, can you please check if it appears now?

hmmmm, sorry again about that post! DAMN YOU XDA!! LOL
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] ammarr:
It works now! Previously it didn't even load from the link you provided but I could see it just fine from my laptop. Pretty odd behavior from the app.
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] DannyWilde:
just flashed it, but there is no orange LED while booting phone. I can't enter recovery. I'm on stock rom + repacked kernel.
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Deleted member 4819888:
Xperia compact has a bootloader that can directly boot to recovery

Turn off the phone, then press vol- and power together

Being on stock rom means you won't have access to internal storage, because of encryption
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] DannyWilde:
Thanx a lot. I read about the Xperia recovery partition long time ago. I didn't know X compact is included.
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] DannyWilde:
So just another question : cause of encryption of internal storage i am not able to make a full backup of my system, is that correct?

Still i have another probleme:

Data partition is shown as 22788mb large.

File Comander shows nearly 8 gb storage used.

Can i do something to correct Data size in TWRP?

Thanks in advance!
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Deleted member 4819888:
Not sure what you mean, do you mean to say that 22788 is not the correct size? Or that it doesn't show that 8gb is used?
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] DannyWilde:
File commander shows 7.9GB used and 21.8GB free.

My nandroid backup used to have 7-8GB with z3c and z5c. My Xc runs on same configuration.
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Deleted member 4819888:
still not really understanding what you mean, but if I'm to guess, then twrp is reporting 22gb USED on data partition?`

if that's the case, then I guess it's because of encryption again, but not sure since I'm not running stock to notice such a thing.
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] ApplepieFTW:
A few questions :

Am I forced to flash the kernel in this thread if I want to use this twrp version? What disadvantages of not doing so exist if it's not needed?

Will this only work on omnirom roms?

Thanks!
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Deleted member 4819888:
you need to flash the .img to recovery, then use vol- and power to boot it.

If you're running a stock based rom, then you won't be able to access internal storage because of encryption.
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] ApplepieFTW:
Can I still flash zips located on the internal storage though? How about sd card (mounting it etc), and usb-otg storage volumes?

Is there a way to disable Sony RIC (and then have access to the internal storage just fine)?

P.S, so flashing the kernel linked in this thread isn't needed, and unlock BL>flash twrp to recovery>working recovery (though with the 'encryption lock' etc), works?
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Deleted member 4819888:
Where is this kernel you're referring to? The only thing downloadable in the post is the recovery .img

Oh and yes, the steps described in the last line look OK.
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] ApplepieFTW:
I feel dumb now, I literally switched to a tab with a kernel download in a similarly structured thread both times. :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes: I found the "presence" of it very confusing myself as well

[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] F2a:
I got it working. Thanks for the reply oshmoun

How to install recovery and root your x compact:

1. Follow this guide and install latest 'Customized UK' Firmware which is 34.2.A.0.311

https://xdaforums.com/cro...-sony-t3558904

- You will use flashtool to create your own custom kernel

- Flash custom kernel

2. Flash TWRP from here: https://xdaforums.com/x-c...-twrp-t3522249

3. Boot into TWRP and flash SuperSU-v2.79-201612051815.zip

- Note: Did not enter password to decrypt device b/c don't know it

- Click Reboot system

4. SuperSu is installed and you are done.
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] shafiq01:
We can bypass encryption on stock

1 . flash a repacked stock kernel img with ric and verity off only tobias's tool latest version 5.23

fastboot flash boot boot.img

Then don't boot yet.

Fastboot format userdata

Fastboot format cache

And then verify that encryption is gone by booting recovery

Fastboot boot recovery.img if it works then fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

This method is also valid for nexus devices, that how I figured out

Remember to install busy box afterwards to avoid su not giving mount access to /system.

---------- Post added at 12:48 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:45 AM ----------

Earlier mentioned method is tested on the androplus recovery, not this one. But maybe this method will work. Sorry for any issues, but hey, we're living a wild life here hehe...

[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] SXUsr:
It's kind of self explanatory, doing this removes encryption. I wanted it removed because TWRP gave errors when flashing zips.
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] avion540:
This is the part I don't understand "1 . flash a repacked stock kernel img with ric and verity off only tobias's tool latest version 5.23" How do I repack stock kernel with ric? What is tobias's tool? I googled it, but the only thing I found was a kernel for the Z5.

Is it possible to please update to the newest twrp version. I am getting errors with encryption and it seems I would at least need 3.0.3
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] SXUsr:
Then see THIS post, the method to disable is still worked for me on .47.
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] chris42too:
Thanks, but I use encryption on purpose. It generally works, just the data partition cannot be accesses by twrp. As I understand it, it was solved in 3.0.3. No 3.1 is out... so probably a good idea to take a look.
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] :
Encryption will still not work even with an updated twrp.

The issue we're having is a bit more complicated.

Generally, using stock rom with twrp on our device will lead to unmountable data partition.
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] tempurastyle:
I have a quick noob question, can I use this TWRP version with Nougat? In the description it says it's for MM, so before I screw up anything... maybe someone can answer with a quick yes or no

[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] WanderMax:
does the recovery need to meet Android version?

recovery for 6.01 cannot be used for 7.0?
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] :
It should, but if you're unsure, there is another thread with updated twrp that is built on the latest 7.1 base
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] WanderMax:
OK, for xposed reason, I need keep 6.01 stock rom with BL unlocked.

Can this Recovery be used?

As you said "Being on stock rom means you won't have access to internal storage, because of encryption", does the custom kernel with ric, dm-verity disabled by tobias.waldvogel https://xdaforums.com/xperia-z5/development/root-automatic-repack-stock-kernel-dm-t3301605 solve the issue?

Thanks again.
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] :
for flashing xposed, you shouldn't need access to internal storage, assuming you have an sd card.

just put the xposed zip on the sdcard, and flash from there.

the custom kernel is crucial if you want your system to boot after flashing xposed, because xposed will modify the system partition, and that will trigger dm-verity. The custom kernel will help avoid that.
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] WanderMax:
You mean that if I want to flash something from SD card, no need to access to internal storage, and flash xposed will change system partition, I can not boot system if I don't disable dm-verity.

In conclusion, to unlock BL. it can give me right to install recovery tool, then I can flash something from SD card.

If flashed xposed/supersu (will modify the system partition), you can not boot system, you have to create the custom kernel with dm-verity off, and flash before xposed/supersu. Finally, you can have the device rooted with xposed. Is it right?

Another question that I find that some Recovery tool can't handle with the data partition decryption problem, is it for all 6.01~7.01 stock ROM?

Thanks again.
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] :
Yes i think you get the general idea.

About the recovery tools, I'm not sure what you mean. But generally, yes, the decryption issue affects all stock versions
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] WanderMax:
OK.

I just want to know that decryption issue will not affect the Rec tool to flash something into /system.

Could you tell me the details of decryption issue when action in Rec tool like what will occur, etc.?

Thanks again.

---------- Post added at 07:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:04 PM ----------

If I turn the encryption off in setting, does this issue still exist?

thanks.
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] realtuxen:
No encryption will not affect flashing to system (it's only /data that is affected). You will get a password screen in recovery startup, just skip it and put files you want to flash on external sd card. You can not use the buildin 'sd card' since it is located in /data. Of course do not encrypt the external sd card.

---------- Post added at 07:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:04 PM ----------

You can not turn it off once encrypted, the stock kernel forces encryption. To clear it you need to patch a kernel with encryption disabled by default and do a factory reset.

And yes you can flash it to fotakernel.
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] WanderMax:
Should I wipe the cache and dalvik after flash supersu?
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] realtuxen:
No i already told you it uses cache partition to setup supersu systemlessly at first boot. Just reboot and the phone will likely restart during first boot when it has done it's magic. After that you can wipe cache as mich as you want. :) Use latest v. 2.79 i linked to yesterday.
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] WanderMax:
In fact I like to flash supersu to xbin as system app.
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] realtuxen:
Why the heck would you rather do that? You still need to reroot if you change boot.img because of the scripts that start the deamon. Su methods have evolved the preferred way is systemless, all 3 root methods available use systemless if possible.

I can't help you with that, it's not something I am interested in.

Again ask in the correct section/thread.
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] WanderMax:
OK.

I will do as you said.

you are such a great man!

I'm reading the spec of snapdragon660.

Thanks anyway.
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] realtuxen:
Thanks. :o

Wow. That's one cool midrange soc. Arm processors evolve damn fast, cheap, and powerful these days.
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] cmstlist:
So if it's impossible for this TWRP to accept a password and decrypt, does that mean nandroid backups of data are out the window and impossible?

Will it ever be possible? My understanding is on many other devices, TWRP can accept an encryption password correctly.
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] :
It's not impossible. It just doesn't work on our device for now.

You could either wait till someone figures it out, or try to fix it yourself ;)
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] WanderMax:
if not do drm-fix via rootkernel tool, and flash dk.ftf with old flashtool, the result is" FIDO KEYS NOT PROVISONED PROVISION FAILED" why!

any way to fix this?
[Sony Xperia X Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] ondrejvaroscak:
DK.ftf is just a part of the solution. Itself it does nothing. It needs to be mounted so the system thinks, that TA partition is instact. So you need to drm-fix in order to use DK.ftf as fake TA partition. Or use TA-POC, link I gave you in another reply.

They always seem to destroy a phone. P8000. P9000, are good examples. Keep with stock rom & your phone will run smooth with no bugs. If you want issues install cm12. 13. Or 14. Anybody with sense will use stock root. Xposed. Job done a perfect elephone.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
It actually depends on the developer, there are a few that have extensive knowledge of android but you would be surprised how many developers here only learned just enough to build ROMs but don't know how to solve their ROM issues. A lot of them had no experience at all and only learned so they could customize their own devices because their device wasn't supported by this community.

It is not much of an issue when you have a popular and well supported device.
