[Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers] Dobsgw:
Can't you just use the cable that came with the phone to copy files like backups from the phone to PC? And then copy files from PC to the phone.

The internal memory of the phone acts the same way as an SD card.

TWRP should also offer support for this if you get stuck with no system to boot to or a bootloop so you can copy files to be used in TWRP.

When your phone is unlocked you should think of it more like your desktop computer. You have wider access and flexibility of usage.

Copy a ROM you want to flash into a folder like "Downloads" on the Mi 6 that has TWRP and follow the guides.

For ROMs that need the internal storage to be formatted before flashing just format and then while in TWRP copy the ROM .zip from PC to phone and then flash it.

I'm also wondering if it's such a good idea to mess with your wife's phone. If she gets stuck in a boot loop or something will she be able to fix the phone?

Just think of the issues that can be faced with custom ROMs and make sure she can get it working again if she needs to!
[Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers] Krzysieq:
Thanks. The whole idea behind getting her this new Mi6 was to put decent software on it, so she hasn't even started using it really yet. She likes what I have on MiMax - Aosp-xtended - I just got stuck trying to figure out how to work around the fact that mi 6 has no sd card. Currently, when it's booted into miui and connected, I can see the contents of the internal memory, but the same is not true when in twrp - then the phone is still visible in Windows, but the folder structure on it is gibberish.

I also wasn't able to record a full backup of the current software using twrp, but perhaps that's because I only rebooted the phone into twrp without actually flashing it onto the device? Or is it because of encryption? Twrp reported it can't create a folder for backup under some path.
[Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers] Dobsgw:
You need to change to a TWRP built with MTP access so it shows on PC when connected.

https://xdaforums.com/mi-6/development/cofface-xiaomi-6-twrp-recovery-t3608523

This one is popular and the Dev has added many features to make it more functional.

You can always fastboot back the old version if it doesn't work.
[Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers] Krzysieq:
It worked, thanks. I'm on AEX rom at the moment, but it has some issues for me. Any chance we'd get Pure Nexus rom for this device, You think? What's the best choice in terms of stability and battery life? I don't care too much about tweaks and mods, the closer to stock android the better...
[Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers] Dobsgw:
I'm waiting for my bootloader unlock.

Got the text but it still failed.

Then I'm gonna try LineageOS since it seems most stable.

Lineage is usually no fuss and compatible with most mods
[Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers] Krzysieq:
On the flipside - I didn't get the text, but the bootloader unlocked without issues. Check that You have the latest version of the xiaomi tool - older one I used early this year with my own mi max didn't work with my Mrs' new Mi6.

Am planning to flash lineage this evening, but on mi max I couldn't get it to recognize lte on my carrier, while pure nexus and aex roms get Lte just fine.

On a related sidenote,is there a decent tutorial on how to start building my own rom builds? I'm a software developer by trade so I'm hoping I should get a hang of it if it's written up decently.
[Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers] zapperbyte:
You dont need external sdcard support to copy ROMs to your phone. You can just connect it to USB and transfer the ROM-Zip File with MTP to the internal storage of your phone.

One of the things that I miss from my Nexus and other prior pure Android devices is full screen lock screen album art. Does anyone know of a hack or workaround to get that on one's Note 8?

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] AndroServ:
If I remember correctly, there is a plug-in to muzei app which is a live wallpaper app. The plug-in give you the option to set the appropriate albom cover as a wallpaper with or without blur effect. You can try and find it and set it as your lock screen.

Hope it helps, update me

Hello,

Sorry if this question seems silly, but is there any way i can connect a card reader for the xD format to my phone. I have looked for adapter, and could find none. I looked for reader that are bluetooth enabled, but it looks like they only act as a dongle. So i guess my question is can i get an adapter that will alow me to plus a USB device (a card reader) into my phone. Is there a better way to do it?

Thank you
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] silver7x:
Would something link this work??
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] mZimm:
I don't believe Windows Mobile allows the connection of a removeable storage device through USB.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] Jim_R:
Next best thing might be to get a MicroSD card reader that has a USB port on it. Then simply plug the MicroSD into your Kaiser, and into the adapter when you wish to pull files from other sources.

SanDisk has such a device called the MicroMate.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] silver7x:
I am sorry, it seems i wasnt clear enough in what i wanted to do. I have a camera that takes an xD card. I would like to get the pictures from the camera to the phone without need a computer. I know i can do that if the camera took SD cards, I can get microSD card with SD adpters. My question is there any way i can do that or something similar to it with an xD card.

Thanks again
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] Jim_R:
I googled about a bit, and the only adapter I could find for XD cards was to Compact Flash. Maybe buy a new digital camera that uses MicroSD?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] silver7x:
yeah i saw that same reader, and i looked into a different camera, but i really like the Olympus cameras, and they only take xD
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] Rudegar:
never seen such a device maybe because an converter would be pretty fragile as microSD is tiny compared to XD
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] leeky:
Well other solution is try to get a micro sd card converter to XD card. I mean the XD card adapter that you can put your micro sd card inside and place it on your camera to take a pic. This is what I do on my camera, but I am using a sd card camera.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] silver7x:
Yup, Thought about that, looked everywhere, and it looks like they just dont make it. i think it has something to do with who owns the IP on the xD card (Fuji, I think) and who owns it on the SD card (Sandisk I think).
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] fxsheep:
Xiaomi began to sell its first Android One phone Mi A1, it has original AOSP official ROM,but with a MIUI Camera.This means Xiaomi has ported the MIUI Cam to AOSP ROM,and this enables us to extract and port MIUI camera to any devices on any ROMs (in theory).

And it has been ported by many people to many Xiaomi devices with non-miui ROMs flashed .

However ,that MIUI cam app still needs much device-specific modifications and even needs to install many files into /system with a flashable zip.

It's a long and hard process to port it device by device. It's also needs root and unlocked bootloader to put files into system partition.

So the MIUI Camera Universal Port aims to port MIUI Camera into a common apk file that you just need to click and install.

Currently it's in early stage and have problems using some functions.

Important:This app will not remind you (showing a toast or dialog )to allow permissions.You need to enable all permissions of this app in settings. Go to Settings - Apps ,click MIUI camera and open permissions - enable all.

(Thanks [MENTION=7153644]murali3127[/MENTION] for reminding)

Changelog in v0.03

Disabled INTERNET permission,to avoid data collecting .

Changed package name to avoid conflicts.

Thanks [MENTION=7585637]jc9896[/MENTION] for reminding.

Change log in v0.01

Initial release

Modified code to enable all functions on any device (it will still disable automatically if a function is not supported by hardware)

Modified code to detect ISP platforms automatically (currently MIUI Cam only support qcom,mediatek,nvidia and lead core, if you run it on unsupported platforms such as HiSilicon the app still works but some bugs will never get fixed)

Added some libs to fix bugs

Setted up all permission and it works without any problem. Flash, camera, video, selfie everything works. It's actually better than Snap Camera that came with my ROM.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] fxsheep:
Do you have non-miui rom installed,and don't have another camera app exist in system? You don't need it if you have MIUI ROM.

And make sure the existing camera app's package name isn't com.android.camera or it will have problems installing because Android will think this app and your existing app are the same.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rober788:

Btw you don't need it bcoz miui has this...My target is to port it to non-miui roms.:)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] jc9896:
Well, the default MIUI camera that comes with MIUI 9 has no advanced features like manual focus, tilt-shift, video mode pause, etc on my Redmi 2, so this adds these features back without needing Xposed (I used to use MIUI 8 tweaks for that)

Great port, thanks a lot. Therer are only two things not working on Mi6 Atomic8.1 is the Dual Camera. There is the button for the other camera, and it zooms in to 2x but if you take a look into the datas of the taken picture you cann see, that both pictures are taken with the normal camera. So the second "zoom camera" is actually never used. And the second is front facing camera, the UI freezes immediatly and I cant take pictures with the front facing cam.

But everything else works great!
