same happened with me, i was taking a nandroid backup when twrp rebooted which left some kinda write protection in my microsd card due to which i am notable to format/delete or debug the microsd card via chkdsk command. When i use sdformatter to format it says sd card is write protected. When i run chkdsk it shows error in that exact twrp backup file which was created while twrp backup which was left unfinished so there no doubt about the origin of this problem. Any help regarding this would be appreciated

SD card corrupted

Hi, I'm Note 4 user today I've installed newest ROM of eRobot i've configured the phone settings and other stuff, and meantime the albums from gallery was disipeard ....then I checked in settings at storage I've got message with SD card corrupted(see picture below). I turned off the phone I pull out the sd card and used on other phone and on my pc and I realized that sd card it's fully functionally with all files on it.

So what can be the problrm? I guess it's something related with this vs of rom... there is a way to solve this problem? some commands from rom...

thx

Testdisk didn't work

Hi. My computer is not detecting my micro sd card (inserted with an sd card adapter) and I downloaded the Testdisk program and it didn't detect my micro sd card. Althought my computer detects a flash drive that is also corrupted or damaged, the Testdisk program didn't want to recover my files. It said something like: Select another folder.

People all over the internet tries to help giving advices and recommendations about this subject and non of the softwares that are recommended in this situation work for me. The cmd.exe, chkdsk doesn't work because cannot detect my micro sd card; Testdisk didn't work because didn't detect my micro sd card either; I read about another software called like EaseUS and didn't detect my micro sd card; I saw a video in youtube that the man in the video recommends to buy 70% rubbing alcohol (something like that) and put in a soft cloth and rub it over the disk metal (you can see in the video: SD Card,micro SD card Not detected .Quick tip ) and althoght I tried that solution it only worked with sd card adapters that weren't working before. I rubbed my micro sd card several times with that kind of alcohol that I boutght after I watched the video and my computer still doesn't detect it.

I WONDER WHAT IN THIS WORLD CAN HELP MY COMPUTER DETECT MY MICRO SD CARD (and even my flash drive. I kept it for 4 years and half just in case I can recover my old files from there, too but.... )

All that I would like to do is to whether recover my files from both disks or for my computer to detect them again.

Thanks :svetius:

hi Guys,

I have this Strontium 64gb microsd card. For some reason im unable to write any file to the card. though i can read whats there in the card.

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] saurav_k:
I have just got a new Redmi note 4. Trying to test basic functionalities. Using Miui for the first time.

Currently there is some problem in my wifi connection. Happens sometimes from isp end.

In stock or lineage the wifi symbol clearly shows an excalamation mark or a small cross mark on/beside the wifi symbol which suggests "connected but no internet access" which is correct and gives me a clear indication that connectivity is down now. See attached screenshot.

But on RN4 on MiUI, I don't see any such symbol. The wifi symbol simply shows as connected but obviously there is no connectivity now so it is confusing. Is it how miui is or is there some setting which will enable such feature.

This in my opinion is a very basic feature and miui seems to be missing it!!

Posting from moto g so cant share the miui screenshot but it shows simply connected on rn4

In the wifi menu also, moto g is clearly showing "connected, no internet" but RN4 is simply showing connected
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] saurav_k:
Very disappointed so far. Both speaker and headphone music output of my moto g 1st gen is far far better than redmi note 4. No quality in RN4. Hyped device!!
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] Rapydax2:
I got Mi-Globe rom with Dolby Atmos installed and I think it's very nice sound quality with that. Maybe try that?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] y2ksnoop:
Try the Mi-Globe ROM with Viper and Dolby. It's the deodexed and debloated version of MIUI tuned to near perfection. You can find these tuning options in the expert sections of the download page.

Any idea on my main query in the opening post?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] saurav_k:
bump !! anyone on the wifi symbol issue mentioned in OP?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] cobben:
You are correct, hadn't thought about it before.

Failover from wifi to mobil data is not working.

This is the same on my Redmi Note 4 3/32 sd global version running MIUI 9 Global beta, and on my Mi Max running MIUI 8 Global Stable.

So this is a basic fault/bug in MIUI, should be reported. How one does that, no idea just now . . .
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] saurav_k:
So we are in MiUI 9 and since 9 generations of this OS (or whatever) noone has noticed, reported or fixed this bug? I don't believe it.

This is just a small example why heavily bloated skins line MiUI are not good. This is such a basic feature and I can't imagine myself living with MiUI as my daily driver.

There are tons of custom roms for Redmi Note 4 but still all have some bugs (Volte signal fluctuation, low volume on speaker etc)

Sold the recently bought RN4 on OLX. Not satisfied with overall quality.

Also, speaker grill position and touch capacitive buttons placement was not comfortable to me.

Holding in one hand, the thumb can't reach the capacitive button on other end.

Also, the hand often covers the speaker grill.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] saurav_k:
One can simply reproduce / test the defect mention in OP by disconnecting LAN cable from Wifi Router and having the phone connected to that wifi network.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] abhishek88666kumar:
This functionality is missing yet from MIUI.

This is not a big issue in RN4 SD but yes, this feature is still missing from MIUI. Whenever you will connect with your Wi-Fi then the wifi symbol will appear but it will not show any symbol for no internet connection. Even the roaming symbol does not appear in my own RN4 SD. I hope that this will be fixed soon by MIUI developer team. If no internet connection symbol is a must have thing in your device then i suggest you to flash lineage os or any other custom ROM. But be careful. download custom ROM only from official sources. Custom ROM from unofficial sources may effect your phone performance and your privacy.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] cobben:
This is not a big problem for me, just a little irritating.

I did a bug report on it, we shall see.

China is on holiday.

I do get the roaming symbol, no problem there.

VoLTE works in my Mi Max with Telia in Sweden, began working this fall after Telia implemented it.

I only have a prepaid sim card in the Redmi Note 4, so Telia does not give it VoLTE.

Generally I'm quite happy with MIUI and the Xiaomii phones.
[Xiaomi Redmi 3s Questions & Answers] MPow1:
This maybe a dumb questions, but are any of the roms in the development area, unrooted? or do they all come prerooted? I am not confident in my abilities with Magisk and have some apps that check for root.
[Xiaomi Redmi 3s Questions & Answers] Adi.s:
All the ROMs r rooted

But if u what to unroot u can do this from superuser app.

In order to remove apps like magisk etc

Download system app remover from play store
[Xiaomi Redmi 3s Questions & Answers] bekcicandrej:
Los by daniel is unrooted, thats for sure and I think carbon is as well. Regarding magisk, basic use is to check if you passed safetynet then clear playstore data in settings>apps and reboot, you'll get certified status. You don't even need to use it's root if don't want to and I'm pretty sure those apps won't register the root. I recommend xpe because its the smoothest.

My steps are:

Install rom and gapps (i use aroma bcs of pixel launcher)

Boot, setup

Update rom (more or less just installing again, to pass safetynet - something is bugged)

Clear playstore, reboot and your good to go :)

I have faced a problem from the begining that whenever i go for downloading some sort of thing it runs fine till the screen is on but after the device sleeps/screen turns off it would stop downloading automatically after some time when on wifi.

I disabled any battery optimizations..kept wifi always on but still the problem persists.

I thought to be a manufacturing problem and replaced my device but the new one also did the same.

I have now rooted through magisk and twrp and i m on b140...

Is there any fix...can somebody help me...or give some names of root app that would not let downloading stop over wifi.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] spinedoc:
FYI this worked for me with a series 2, than means no cellular connection, I'll bet it works better with a series 3. Battery draw was higher on both the AW and the Note 8 (hotspot continuously on), but I still made it through a full day. Most of my stuff is on Google Voice, so all that worked perfectly and I got notifications on the AW and was able to respond. All the apps I tried which involved the phone seemed to work fine, for example the Ecobee app on the AW worked fine to adjust my Tstat at home. Apple pay worked perfectly as well. Siri didn't work when I tested, it said couldn't find my iPhone. iMessages can be tricky as mentioned above. The only thing that truly didn't work at all was making and receiving phone calls.

Thanks again [MENTION=272939]spinedoc[/MENTION] for your initial information on that NumberSync article on Android Central. I posted this guide on the ATT forum and someone stated that even trying this was a hot mess! No way! Once you set it up that's it. It works really well with the series 3. You used ecobee, it works with liftmaster too.

I love the watch but I love my Note 8! So I do want to live in Both worlds.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] vincey2kr1:
Say u turn your hotspot on , tether the iPhone to note 8 , leave the house but your iPhone loses connection to your note 8 because your out of range so it hooks onto your home router. Now you won’t get messages?? Think that’s the problem I had. It Did work when I left the iPhone in the vehicle, lost tethering so iPhone went to cellular data. Can anyone confirm?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] burrzoo:
I had my iPhone (no SIM in it) tethered to my Note 8 hotspot. At the same time the Apple Watch is automatically connected to the iPhone (which is still using the hotspot for internet connectivity).

Once the Apple Watch was connected it "established " a know WiFi connection so you can actually shut the iPhone down and the Apple Watch will connect to your Note 8 (or any previously connected hotspot which your iPhone was connected to).

So when I leave my house and my Apple Watch is out of range even with my home WiFi (you'll know when your watch has no connection as it will display a tiny red phone or something like that, at the top of the screen) I turn on my Hotspot right in the notification shade (which also turns off your N8 normal WiFi connection) and the Apple Watch connects automatically. That "not connected" icon disappears.

Now you will not receive any cell-related content. You'll get text messages Only from those using iMessage (but you can respond on your AW, I use voice dictation, so easy) your Note 8 texts will not appear on AW. You'll get email updates (if the email accounts existed on your iPhone), you'll get weather updates and can use wifi-connected light bulbs and garage doors etc. if they were all originally set up on your iPhone and if there is a corresponding AW app. Still lots of functionality!

I'm such a geeky goober that I have an Apple Watch on one wrist and a Gear S2 LTE on the other! Like jewelry to me.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] burrzoo:
I forgot to mention that this is the GPS Only Apple Watch.

Also, [MENTION=337397]vincey[/MENTION], are you trying to just tether your iPhone to your N8 hotspot (& not use an AW at all)?

Is this still working? How long does your Apple Watch Series 3 last before it needs to be charged again when doing this?

I'm assuming WhatsApp messages sent to the iPhone will be received on the watch?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] d.j.byrne.51201:
An Apple Watch can only be directly paired with an iPhone, not an iPad, and if it has watchOS 4 or later, then it can't be paired to an iPhone 5 or 5C, because they won't run anything newer than iOS 10, but as long as the watch has watchOS 3 or earlier, you can still pair it to a 5 or 5C. Otherwise, just get a 5S. If it's a cellular iPad and there's a SIM card in it, then he can do what the OP did with his Note 8, but he won't be able to sync or install anything on the watch using the iPad. On the other hand, I'm pretty sure a Fitbit can be paired to any phone, tablet or computer

I cannot go into recovery as the volume-up key is not working. I already changed the buttons flex cable, but seems like a board problem as it still doesn't not work. I also tried disconnecting the battery and waiting a few minutes, then reconnecting the battery, it works for other phones, but not ZF5.

I've been having this problem for a while (Android 7.1.2 and now 8.0). I will try to video call my wife using either Google Duo (Pixel to iPhone) or Facebook Messenger. We used to have the problem that calls could be initiated, but as soon as the other answered, it would hang up. We still have this problem except now the app doesn't even wait for us to answer, it just hangs up after a single ring or so. It's almost immediate.

I tried asking Google for help using the support option on the phone but they were less than helpful. The situation and the lack of support have made me mad enough to want to ditch the phone and get an iPhone (which I typically curse - I hate everything Apple but at least I could finally be compatible with the rest of my family).

I have used Ivona Kendra TTS for a number of years to read ebooks. Amazon apparently has bought them and now wants to charge for TTS at a rate of $4 per million characters, but requires data to use. I am often out of cell service.

Ivona Kendra was working perfectly on my phone but I reset it to try to get another app to work. Then I restored a backup and got all my apps back, but Kendra no longer works. I don't know if this is due to the restored backup or if something else changed. I have the Kendra .apk file, the Ivona TTS apk and the .obb files, but no matter what I have tried, I can't get the voice to read in the proper Kendra voice. When I choose the Kendra voice, it uses the UK Amy voice instead. UK Amy is still available through Ivona.

I would really like to get this voice back. Since it worked before, I am hoping that there is a way to get it to work again. I am using a HTC M8. I also have a Samsung S5 and the voice is still working as it used to on the S5, but it was always a bit buggy on the s5.
