MODIFIED INSTALL PROCEDURE TO AVOID FORCE CLOSES !

Made a SL!M rom of the chinese A2017 V2.0 B13 MiFavor 5.0 version ( with its new Camera app, VoLTE,...) :D

I debloated most of the unnecessary apps and added some new ones. It’s nothing too fancy but worth looking into. It was a bit harder to make SuperSU working ok. So follow the steps carefully when flashing !

It’s fully functional and tested. Smooth, no bugs (report when there is)

Hope you’ll E N J O Y !!!

Based on :

A2017 V2.0 B13 MiFavor 5.0

INSTALL : ( TWRP ) IN FOLLOWING ORDER

When you're on another ROM and you want a clean install just follow this procedure :

For replacing SuperSU with Magisk : in ROM zip replace in ROOTZIP folder the SuperSU.zip with the Magisk zip. Use 7-zip. Just drag&drop..easy !

IMPORTANT : rename to magisk.zip to the same name as in rootzip folder: "SuperSU.zip". So remark capitals !

That should do the trick. Just reflash the procedure and Magisk is there.

You also can try out other modem (for G model they're all in DownloadCenter) for testing out better battery life, signal and so on.[/B][/SIZE][/COLOR] thnx for testing [MENTION=4254898]joaste[/MENTION]

NEW METHOD TO AVOID FORCE CLOSES (AS ON AROMA MF5.0)

0. In case you want to reflash your own apps backup your personal apps with f.e. TB, ZipMe... (or whatever)

00. running TWRP 3.1.1.0

1. Make a full backup of your current device in TWRP ! (use it to RESTORE if necessary) DON’T FORGET !

2. Wipe cache / dalvik / data / system

3. Install BUT DO NOT BOOT : A2017 V2.0 B13 MiFavor 5.0 SL!M : https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=817906626617946091

4. CHOOSE : 4a or 4b

4a. Install : bootstack B13 FIX 2 when coming from another rom : https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=745849072291693516

GOTO (5)

4b. Install : bootstack Universal B15 “adapted 3.1.1.0” when already on a MiFavor 5.0 rom

https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=673791459329066038

GOTO (5)

5. Install : MODEM (G) : https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=962021903579492190

( flash modem for A2017U model : https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=817550096634745612 )

( flash modem for A2017 model : https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=457095661767137840 )

6. REBOOT :

6a When you were already on a MiFavor rom ( and of course did 4b ), you’ll normaly have a clean (double) boot

6b When you came from another rom ( and did 4a ), your phone will power off (3 red led). Don’t reboot ! Hold power+vol+ to enter back into twrp. Just flash B15 adapted (4b) with TWRP3.1.1.0 and reboot. No need to flash TWRP3.1.1.0 again. You’ll have a clean boot too.

7. IMPORTANT ! Follow steps !

7a. setup WIFI/data

7b. go into SuperSU and check if all ok

7c. tap ADAWAY and give permissions

7d. tap addless youtube app. You’ll be asked to log in and update google services ! Do so and wait.

7e. tap google playstore, settings/disable autoupdates

7f. open settings/app and go to google services ( even if you’re on the latest 11.9.51 (440-177350961) or 11.7.46 (440-175121617)) Uninstall update ! Reboot, go into youtube app again and update services AGAIN ! YEP !

7g. try an app like google maps(enable gps and get a fix), hangouts or chrome and you’ll normaly see that force closes should be gone !

Everything is working as far as i can see...
