[Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers] tkawa:
There is always some plus and minus. I’ve been using Xiaomi 5 Pro and I’m very happy {:m034:}

I used to have One+1 and One+3. Both were great phones.

With perfect Quality/Price factor. Even with EU prices:-/

Now I had been waiting for One+5 and all-around I’m very disappointed wit it.

Reason?

USB 2, No OIS, Software AND Price for EU!!!

It’s not the Flagship killer anymore, it starts to be exclusive peace of equipment.

My main decision point (quality/price factor) dropped down rapidly.

I really prefer MIUI in comparison to Cyanogen (1+1) or OxygenOS (1+3).

With weekly Globe-Roms upgrade (http://mi-globe.com) I’m really satisfied. Mi 5 works very smooth.

OK., it’s with open boot loader and rooted, but all my phoned have been same way in the past

(and will be in future :))

I do not remember what I used in the first case, but in 1+3, I changed it to Resurrection Remix ROM.

I agree that all Oneplus society forum support is great. Same with software developers.

I hope that here in MIUI world it will be the same soon.

Especially that after all comparisons of my own, I decided to order Mi 6, 6/128 one.

:)))
[Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers] jlmcr87:
Without any doubt the mi6, and specially if you can buy it at 369USD in some aliexpress offers.
[Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers] kolembo:
I just Got the Mi 6 pro. Fresh in my hand. It looks great, and feels excellent. It's running very smooth at the moment but hey, is brand new.

I have my 3t on hand.

I think most of the comments are correct. One plus updates quick esp of your on the beta stream, it's smooth and you don't have to deal with MIUI overlay - the OnePlus launcher is excellent.

The Mi 6 is very emotional - what the 3T has and the 5 does not.

Practically, get the 5....you know what to expect. The Mi6 feels great though.....!

I have to edit this: having had the phone for a week - the Mi6 is the smoothest, fastest phone in town right now, period, including the S8 Plus. It's very slick indeed, very, very quick, had an excellent camera and great Sound.

It's very difficult to put the Mi6 down and pick up any of the other phones.

Where I can find this offer?
[Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers] mELIANTE:
It's gone. That was the 28 June sale on a couple of sellers. I bought mine then, still waiting for it to be posted...
[Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers] testreaper:
On the same boat. I have been reading about the touchscreen delay problems,bluetooth connectivity and some other bugs and i am hesitant to do the leap of faith on mi6.

One plus 5 on the other hand has such community and gets so many updates that you are sure that software problems will be fixed as soon as possible.
[Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers] hbbxmjbb:
If you find bugs on MI 6,you can tell the developers of Xiaomi to fix them.
[Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers] NisseGurra:
I got both the op5 and Mi6, the op5 has an real deal-breaker with the "jelly screen" design flaw. As for now there is no fix and oneplus says its "natural". So the Mi6 is an better choice for me.
[Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers] testreaper:
i recon that bluetooth bugs have existed with the launch and they are yet to get a 'fix'.

Updates for global seem non existant but on the other hand thats what you get for the mi series. Xiaomi is pretty great for international devices, mainly speaking about the redmi series. Rest seem to be left untouched(Mi mix,note 2, mi5 s etc).

I am gonna hold myself from buying this yet.
[General Questions and Answers] AllSmokeEm:
Hello all.

It's a long story and I will try explain my problem as good as I can.

So it all started a year ago on my other s7 edge. It was rooted and I was running a rom. Loved that one. Not gonne name it because my screen totally burned in with an app. It was due the screen was broken. So samsung gave a new one for free. They didnt even check.

This is where I think things go wrong. I had to wait a bit so my boss gave me his old htc for the time being. So finally I got my new edge. A week or two before npugat update. Now after nougat I notice things are not right. Allot of core apps don't upgrade. So had to do it manually.

Okay no problems. So called help support. They ticked auto update on wifi and mobile a few time. And he told me. My co worker told me about this weird bug. If this doesnt work you need to make a new google acc and samsung acc and factory reset. So I was like hmmm no. Allot of payed apps.

So I was thinking... lets check some stuf. So I activated the dev settings and then backup and restore. And there it was an option called auto restore after a new installation... well my last login was on a htc.

So okay i have tryed allot and here are things I have discovered.

-Core apps are the most early version there are

-If I go to google play store or samsung. The most basic apps like email and clock and so one. It says not compitable with ur device. Even if I update it manually.

-If I want to report stock apps it will always say app id or package name are missing.

-A few app permissions only work.

-I also didnt update a few apps and they had five or more new releases. Still says nope still ot will say its the latest version.

-So software update still works. Last week a new security patch. But really everything is messed up.

-Cant manual update any apps any more. Always app conflict or not compitable.

-So I installed a few device software and hardware info. Radio unknown sdk unkown and so on.

-So finally installed an emulator and runned the command $sh getprop. U can guess allot of unknowns and false and negative settings. With negative it says -1 or -0.....

So im really clueless. I need a real total clean wipe. Reinstalled bl cp and ap and csc.. If I will check off auto restore after new device or restore and flash it with odin. Will this solve this issue?

And what are the proper odin settings and do I need to use the pit file? Cus Somehow the latest update tryed to install core apps on my external sd card... Its a 0 mb card since I dont use a sd card.. But I did had one on my old one.

I hope to get some tips. Because this time I wont flash or root without someone else his advice. Everything I told is in a period of 4 months.

Thnx in advance. Hope to hear soon.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
I would try flashing the stock firmware via Odin, download the firmware and place it in the AP slot in Odin with default settings and options, don't change anything in Odin. Then flash it.

If it bootloops after flashing, boot to stock recovery and factory reset/wipe cache in recovery.

If that doesn't work you can try flashing the firmware again along with the PIT for your model number. Place your firmware in the AP slot then find the PIT tab in Odin and place the PIT there, then in the options for Odin, make sure the "repartition" option has a check beside it, then flash the device.

Again, you might have to boot to recovery after flashing to wipe the device if it bootloops after flashing.

[General Questions and Answers] AllSmokeEm:
Thanks for the quick response.

Will this clear core apps aswell? And will it apply the "Restore settings and system" after the flash? Since last time I used odin in this way when it says wiping date it instant completed that part.

And about the bootloop. I work for a company I flash software directly on the boards. When u flash directly on a board a bootloop is good and can take up to 20 minutes. Since it have settings who need to be aplied for the next step. And those only get aplyed after a reboot. Does this count for odin aswell perhaps? When it bootloops keep it doing for a while?

Thanks
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Taking a while to load at first startup is normal, but bootloop is not "normal", sometimes bootloop happens depending on the operating system being flashed but generally speaking bootloop should not happen under normal circumstances when flashing with Odin.

As for clearing your apps, it should automatically format the system partition before it flashes the system.img which "should" overwrite the existing system partition with the new system.img.

[General Questions and Answers] AllSmokeEm:
Ahh okay. Will do you steps then. Hope it will work. I do have one last question.

I've just read before you flash. You have to remove all securitys like fibgerprint and accounts. And after the flash when you get at the setup. They say skip all. And add everything after so it wont restore old stuff. Is this true?
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
I don't have a Samsung device that requires these steps but it sounds like solid advice to me though. It sounds right because doing it that way means you're signing into the device without associating it to anything from before to let it complete setup without issues and then setting everything up after. Then if any of the things you re-associate cause issues, it will be easier to resolve than it would be if you flashed and restored everything during setup, doing it that way makes it hard to fix things because if something doesn't work it can cause your device to not boot properly. Doing it the after setup avoids some of those issues.

[General Questions and Answers] AllSmokeEm:
Okay.

Thanks allot for taking time and the great advice. Gonne follow it up and after that I might gonne install magisk su. Never heard about since last night. Will let you know the results.

Edit

Thanks sir.

As what I can see for now allot of my issues are fixed. Probaly need to test more. But like they say time will tell. Great support much appreciated. Next steps twrp superstock kernel and magisk.
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus General] sancarabo:
Hi.

New with the Niki and in the forum. Activesync is crazy (or me? :)), starts automatically after some minutes. Anybody knows why?.

Thanks, great site to learn.
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus General] HTCStuey:
I've never had it suddenly appear on screen but I've often found it's in the Task Manager thingy program list when I know I haven't used it.

I've only had my Touch Dual since just after Christmas, so I am not sure if I am thinking about that or my previous phone, or even my seperate PDA, but I think it's happened with all of them to be honest.

And I don't use Active Sync that often because I can never find a handy cable (even though I've probably got at least 7 with all the previous phones, digital cameras, media players etc used by the family). I need a blue tooth dongle :cool:
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus General] Thyraz:
I had this problem also, but i figured out that it was a problem with a program.

But i can't remember which one it was.

Maybe it was PhoneWeaver?

But it was only a option i set in a program i use.

After deactivation everything was fine again.

ActiveSync in Taskmanager is normal.

It runs the whole time, waiting for connection, thats no error or Touc Dual problem.

Is it possible to reduce the battery drain from this without root?

I disabled all bloatware, but I still cannot get through the day.

I don't want to lose android and Samsung pay by rooting.

Any suggestions?

How did you disable the bloatware? I mean which app did you use? Package Disabler Pro or BK Disabler? Or something else?

Have you tried Greenify? You can use it with or without Root. In your case without. It will hibernate many apps to save your battery.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] sambrooke:
I'll try that and let you know.

If I root? Will I be able to use android pay or Samsung pay?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] sambrooke:
I setup greenify, but I'm not sure if it will help much if the apps killing my battery are related to the android os and android kernel which it will not shut down.

Do all Android phones have this issue? Or is it better with the newer phones like s8

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] freeop:

I froze everything on the bloat list in Packager Disabler Pro. And a few other things on the system list. Like Direct TV and most of the Samsung junk.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] freeop:
As for rooting I followed this procedure: https://xdaforums.com/tmobile-s7-edge/how-to/heres-how-rooted-nougat-s7-edge-g935t-t3567502

But for applying the root.bat I used this post: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=71700562&postcount=688

I have been running the root for about 6 weeks now and have not had any problems with the two post above. Just follow the root.bat in post #688 and make sure you follow the way [MENTION=5149713]Quickvic30[/MENTION] says in that post. You should have no problems and takes about 20 minutes to complete.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] sambrooke:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] sambrooke:
Is there a way to go back if it does not?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] freeop:
Yes in the post it gives you how to return to stock. Before doing anything, make sure you have all the files on your computer. Get the latest stock files, I believe QD2. I know QE1 is the latest version but I had QD2 and got QE1 Ota. Then both version of Odin 3.12.3 and 3.12.7. Get the Adb drivers and the root.bat files. And finally the eng.img provided in the first post.

Good luck...

I believe it could be better but as-is a score of 9000+ is sufficient. It indicates the 8gb of ram is efficiently being utilized during read/write operations. I'm hoping some future updates improve the score as I've seen benchmarks from other 821 devices that were 10000+ (as zoejif also hints at) on their ram score.

Hope this isn't a rash comment, but this ROM seems a bit sus to me. It's not available via OTA and it's not listed on MIUI.com as an available ROM or Fastboot ROM... That and the fact the previous poster mentioned that it comes with a Developer version warning seems a little dodgy.
