[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] enrique_b06:
How did you unlock your S7 Edge? by code or box? if the phone was factory unlocked you can flash the stock rom without problem. You need to verify how was unlocked your cellphone because using Octoplus Box it's locked again (sometimes, it depends the way used to do the unlock process).

i have an app provided by our company . when i open app and go to multimedia option then camera opened always. want little changing like when i open multimedia it gives ud option like CAMERA AND Gallery. so then i select photo from gallery . is anyone know how to edit it
[XDA Assist] Razvan:
Hi there and welcome to Assist,

Well, you can't really edit the source code unless you can find the, well, source code. you can get at some of the stuff in the apk like xml files and images, that is how many of the mods work, but you can't alter the actual java code. If the app is open source you could download that, edit it then rebuild it.

Here is a lot of tutorials about "How to's":

> App Development Forums > Development Tools > Android Studio

You'll have to create an account to post in the main forums if you have any other questions.

Good luck
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmcke47:
Hi, i was messing around on my rooted 7.1 nexus 6p and i downloaded the official twrp app from the play store.

I opened up the app and i pressed the "flash twrp to boot" button and now i cant boot into android. Whenever my phone turns on it just takes me to twrp recovery.

I could just wipe my phone and install everything again but i dont have a recent backup. oops

Is there possibly a way to unflash the boot or something? thanks in advance.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pronuba66:
Try

There is this December dash sale going on in the oneplus website in India. I have collected enough points to get either of the above mentioned accessories. Considering they're practically free of cost, I can get any one. I can get The translucent and glass protector together. Or I could just the only the sandstone. But I like the sandstone one better.

I have 12 points accumulated.

Sandstone Case- 9 points

Translucent Case- 6 points

Screen protector- 6 points

P.S The screen protector is not the one with black borders that cover the entire screen. It's the one which doesn't fully cover the screen and has its borders on the display.
[OnePlus 3 Accessories] eduardmc:
Ill tell u this. I have not use any screen protector or tempered glass for a few month now. Just the op3 carbon fiber slim case. I have not single microscratch in my screen. If u care about drop protection use a tempered glass if is only for scratch do not worry about it. Get a slim case
[OnePlus 3 Accessories] The Highwayman:
The Sandstone Case is fine. I ordered one with my OnePlus 3T in order to have protection out of the box.

However, it doesn't protect the top/bottom of the case, so I've moved to a different case, but it's fine for everyday scratch protection :good:
[OnePlus 3 Accessories] mwbuss8:
I've seen first hand a few screens crack, even with slim cases such as the sandstone. The most recent was from a chair onto carpet. I'm not a fan of the 2.5D screens, but it seems like any worth-while phone has it anymore, and I believe it's a contributor to the screen's fragility. The original tgsp probably won't help here, nor will a slim case.

My advice would be either wait to accumulate more points and get something nicer, or spend the money if you feel you need to add protection. I use a Poetic Revolution case, and as of a few days ago, OP's full coverage tgsp. It's taken some fairly hard falls out of my pocket onto a gym floor (I'm a PE teacher) with no ill effects.

[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] james1089:
I managed to flash with latest miflash using your guide my bootloader was already unlocked check using:

boot your phone into fastboot and COMMAND PROMPT " fastboot oem device-info "

most are probably unlocked with vendor rom but not all.

Don't try to unlock with this method just check to save sometime.

guide: http://xiaomitips.com/guide/how-to-check-if-redmi-note-3-bootloader-is-locked-or-unlocked/
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] satishp:
I guess it also depends on the Vendor ROM and customization which comes installed on your device. Not all Vendor ROMs for this device are the same. I tried everything under the sun with the latest miflash. It would detect device and even give a "success" output but the ROM was never actually flashed. The phone would still be on the Vendor ROM. Its as if some Vendor ROMs have some form of write protection baked in.

I could only get it working with the older miflash.

Why is it required to flash the official rom before flashing the EU rom?
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] james1089:
This for people who don't want TWRP, root and dm-verify, just genuine Xiaomi rom with OTA updates and remove vendor rom.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] geubes:
QQ.

I did the following on my Mix and wondering if I am missing anything. I should say that everything "appears" to be working perfectly on the EU rom.

My Mix came with 8.0.8.0 Global (Vendor ROM) and I wanted to move onto the Xiaomi.eu rom. I loosely followed the above guide and did the following steps:

Applied for Unlock

Unlocked the device via MiUnlock

Used Minimal ADB and booted the device into FastBoot

Confirmed device was Bootloader unlocked

Flashed TWRP (latest non-eu build)

Booted to recovery

DID NOT swipe to edit system partition, left that read only

Flashed the latest Weekly Xiaomi.eu build

Wiped Dalvik/Cache

Booted phone

Performed a Factory reset.

All seemed a little too easy and I didnt need to go to an "Official" china ROM first. But I do have a few questions...

Should I have swiped Yes to enter Read/Write mode for the system partition and run a dm-verify? (I am not interested in Rooting the device at this stage)

Should I have performed a System clear in TWRP before installing Xiaomi.eu ontop of the Vendor ROM?
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] james1089:
Wouldn't worry about it the vendor ROMs aren't poison, not sure about dm-verify if you kept read only. I would of swiped then flashed dm-verify but didn't mean I know what I'm doing.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] satishp:
This is because some Vendor ROMS have some compatibility issues with TWRP. Touch screen wouldn't work on TWRP. I tried both TWRP versions and couldn't get touch to work.

Finally, I flashed the China Dev ROM and then used TWRP RC2 and touch functionality worked.

As some users below have pointed out that they could get to EU without flashing the one of the official builds, I guess it depends on the amount or type of vendor customizations applied on your device.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] dbesada:
Which version do you own? I was wondering if this would work with the 6GB as well.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] satishp:
This works with both versions. The ROM is compatible with both variants as the size of memory and storage doesn't affect compatibility.

I have the 6\256 variant.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] dbesada:
Thank you. It worked. I fastboot twrp then factory reset the device and flashed the eu rom. All good. My bootloader was unlocked by the vendor.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] SantinoInc:
Can someone please give me some advice? Just got the phone a couple hours ago. I took a picture of the info page. Based on the screenshot am I on the vendor ROM or official? I'm thinking I'm on Vendor because it has GAPPS already included.

If I'm on Vendor ROM and want to get to rooted EU Rom I can follow directions in the OP right?

How do I know is if my bootloader is already unlocked? Many thanks
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] Razorbacktrack5535:
Vendor (there is no Global ROM for Mix). You should unlock your bootloader (check if it's already unlocked using "fastboot oem device-info"), flash TWRP, wipe and flash EU
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] SantinoInc:
Do I have to do Power + Vol Down (that's bootloader mode right) in order to input the ADB code you gave me?

[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] Razorbacktrack5535:
I don't know, I'm using the EU Rom from the first day without problems. Are you using cellular data or wifi? Because with the first option you have to disable the download limit in "Download"

Thank you so much man! Ok, so this TWRP is working so far. I'm backing up the Vendor ROM this phone came with and then I'm going to flash the EU rom. Should I do a factory reset before flashing the EU rom? Is it safe to flash SuperSU and Xposed in the same session as when I flash the EU rom?

I'm sorry for the noob questions and I thank you IMMENSELY for your help!

---------- Post added at 09:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:34 PM ----------

So, it looks like I got happy too fast. I attempted to flash the EU rom and the SuperSU in the recovery you recommended and something didn't go right. It said files extracted in 0.0s and it didn't have the usual dialogue you would get when something flashes normally. TWRP was stuck so I had to long press POWER. After long pressing power i got a screen showing a USB cable and on the bottom it said pcsuite.mi.com

Now I really don't know what to do. Anyone have advice? I can see that I can still get to FASTBOOT. This is getting really aggravating.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] satishp:
I made this guide using the exact steps I followed. Follow this guide exactly as it is and you'll be on EU. Hope this helps.

And it looks like you pressed the power button too soon. Don't rely on the progress bar. It appears to be stuck towards the end but it is actually copying files.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] SantinoInc:
Problem may be that I didn't follow your steps. Another user said I didn't have to go to official Chinese and can get around it by flashing the other TWRP.

Can you please tell me in simple terms what is the best way to get up and running?
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] satishp:
The reason why I recommend flashing an official stable or dev build is because touch functionality on TWRP can be unresponsive on some variants of Vendor ROMS.

AS you are able to boot into fastboot mode, flash TWRP RC2 and boot into TWRP recovery.

If touch works for you, you can skip the part where you have to flash an official build and proceed with the remaining steps exactly as it is.

If touch on TWRP is unresponsive, follow the guide and flash an official or dev build and proceed with the remaining steps.

And the reason why you are facing this issue is because you assumed TWRP got stuck and pressed the power button too soon. Don't rely on the progress bar. Wait for a few minutes until it finishes copying the ROM files and you will get a "completed" message once its done.

EDIT: I read through your previous posts and from what I understand, your vendor ROM isn't compatible with TWRP RC1 or RC2, which is why touch is unresponsive. So I recommend starting from scratch.

Boot into fastboot mode, flash an official fastboot ROM using the instructions mentioned in the guide. Then flash TWRP RC2 and proceed. Make sure you follow the exact steps and be careful not to miss anything.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] SantinoInc:
Can you please link me to the proper build that I have to flash?

MIUI China Fastboot Dev ROM

Scroll down and find Mi Mix on this page and download the file. That is the fastboot dev ROM.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] SantinoInc:
First of all thank you so much for helping me walkthrough this nightmare. I already feel guilty having purchased this phone for so much money and then immediately screwing things up. I really appreciate the help!

Ok, so before you replied with what version to flash I already flashed the version in the other guys tutorial, that version is: lithium_images_V8.0.12.0.MAHCNDI_20161220.0000.00_6.0_cn_1d11697504

Thankfully it worked and now when the phone booted up and I go to ABOUT PHONE it says I'm on "MIUI 8.0 Stable 8.0.12.0 (MAHCNDI)

Now that I'm on this ROM can I follow the normal procedure to get to EU rom?

Edit: Also, when I'm eventually back in RECOVERY before I flash the EU ROM do I have to perform a factory reset first while in TWRP or do I just flash w/o doing a reset?
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] satishp:
Now that you're on Stable ROM, you can start from Step 6 of this guide. Use TWRP RC2. Don't forget to flash dm-verity and forced encryption disabler patch soon after you have swiped right to modify system in TWRP.

Follow from Step 6 and as long as you dont miss anything, you'll be on EU soon.

Cheers!
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] SantinoInc:
no-verity-opt-encrypt-5.0 I was able to find in the other guide. What about this encryption disabler patch...where do I find that?
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] satishp:
Thats the file I was referring to. So you're good to go. It disables dm-verity and forced encryption so that you don't face a bootloop.

SATISHP:

Thank you so much for all your help. I was super stressed over this dumb phone and you helped walk me through it! I'm still on the fence as to whether I'm going to keep it or not. It's a pretty cool phone but for the amount I paid and the fact that it's just so damn big I just don't know...

Anyway, I have a question that doesn't exactly pertain to this thread but was hoping you may have some insight. I noticed that on the EU rom (which I'm on now thanks to your help) that there are certain apps in the PlayStore that I can't download. AMEX, Amazon store and few others aren't showing up. I suspect the Play Store thinks that I'm somewhere outside of the US. When I did initial setup I input my location and stuff. Once again, many thanks!
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] satishp:
Glad to be of help! And since you say you paid a lot for the device, where did you buy the phone? I paid approx. 820USD, (including express shipping via DHL), which was the cheapest price compared to most sellers. And from what I'm seeing, the price is going up now. I agree that it costs a lot more than current flagships. But, if you paid around 800dollars, this is the current rate for the phone worldwide. In most markets, it costs around 20-25% more than the current prices for a Galaxy S7 Edge. I upgraded from a Note 4. Have been a Samsung user since a long time. and used to upgrade to new Samsung flagships (Galaxy Notes) every year. I never upgraded from the Note 4 as I felt all the Samsung flagships released after the Note 4 was lacking in some area or the other. I liked the Note 7 but had to return it for obvious reasons.

It is after a long time that I feel the satisfaction of having a "complete" phone. The only downside of the Mix may be the camera which is not on par with current flagships, but I use the camera very rarely and I was willing to trade that for everything else this device offered. So, in a way, that justified the price for me. And regarding the size of the phone, it doesn't feel much bigger than my Note 4 or an iPhone 7 Plus, thanks to the edge-less display.

Now, regarding the apps in the Play store, all these apps are showing on my device. I guess I chose India or a EU region during device setup. Since Xiaomi doesn't have an official presence in the US, UK and many EU regions, just went for the closest available region with doesn't have any restriction on apps in the Play store. Try this and maybe it will work for you.

As far as I am aware, no one is facing issues with apps.

I'll tell you, it's helpful people like you on XDA that make this site so great to use! For all the years I've been on Android and rooted phones my skill level is still pathetically n00bish. I can USUALLY follow instructions and get the job done but my skill set is lacking. That's why I'm thankful for XDAers like yourself.

To answer your question I paid $815 for a virtually brand new 256 GB model on Swappa. To be perfectly honest I'm having some pretty sever buyers regret. I Paid $350 for my S7 Unlocked which I'm using on MetroPCS w/o any problems and the phone is really great. I had no good reason to even entertain buying a new phone. I've always been fascinated by MIUI despite only using it for a brief while. However, despite the indisputable beauty of the phone the dollar for dollar isn't there. In terms of function, form or performance is this phone worth more than double my S7? It most certainly is not. Hell, money aside IDK if I can say the Mi Mix is superior to the S7.

The phone does have the "unique" factor. For whatever that is worth. If I don't have anyone make me a decent offer on Swappa I may just keep it after all. In the interim maybe I'll try to reflash the ROM and choose another location to see if that fixes my play store problem.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] wu5262:
You also have to keep in mind this phone isn't suppose to hit country outside China, so you are paying extra for that. The Mix is only $550 if you buy in China, because the phone is rare (much much rarer than s7), and you are buying from someone in US who most likely bought from Chinese reseller who bought from xiaomi. Chinese reseller typically crank up at least $150 on top of official price.

I was lucky enough to bought mine for $650.
