[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] _mysiak_:
Funny how experience can be so different..

1. 5sec super fast finger print scanner

Mine reacts almost instantly

2. Best Low Light camera

With Gcam mod it's on par with Google Nexus line

3. Best signal range

No issue experienced

4. Best video recording camera

Could be better, but nothing especially wrong

5. Fastest software developments

I am receiving monthly updates, not sure about you

6. Amazing inbuilt FM Radio

3rd party apps work fine..

7. No app crashing

Didn't have a single app crash

Edit: I am getting tired of these kind of posts. At first it was every day question "how to install MIUI". Then it was "where is my OTA", replaced by "where is my Oreo", replaced by comments "this phone is piece of trash". Guys, if you're not happy, sell it and buy something else. Many of you don't want to root and mod/fix your phone, so no idea why are you coming here. Place your complaints with vendor, XDA community can't help you if you insist on keeping your phone stock. You will gain literally nothing by complaining on XDA forum.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Lupin The Third:
Rooting this little guy unleashes it's full power that for some reason Xiaomi decided to keep restrained.

Moded gcam is incredible!!! And enabling also EIS makes the camera behave fenomenaly!!!

I have no issues so far, and the battery life is just great, 7, 8 hours of SOT.

So I agree with you. This is a great device if you learn how to mod it.

[Google Cardboard] pierpiotr:
Dear forum people,

I have been looking around for a couple of weeks and I'm closing in to the problem I have.

I want to give away cardboards so that patrons can see our installation from our website . This is a WordPress site with VR-view plugin.

My frustration comes from the fact that my 360° images (taken from a gear360 2017) are ok on the web AND on an iPhone with a simple cardboard viewer (close to Google i/o2015).

Why does it look like it is not calibrated on my galaxy S8+ (it makes me squint) ?

I have used the VR Calibration app form AnRaEl (see playstore) and generated the QR code from the Google site. But even this does not work.

I also tried to activate the 1st and second VR flag in chrome://flags in ChromeDev

Images and videos from the Cardboard app appear OK, but not the images from my website (in Chrome, ChromeDev, Firefox).

Can anyone help ?

[edit] it looks okay on a friend's galaxy S5, but it's not a matter of size since the iPhone 7 of the other pal is A-OK. Also, a 360° video runs on the apple's but stops on the S5 when fitting it in the cardboard viewer. Still not solved...
[Google Cardboard] Blackstar97:

[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] schneid:
I post here directed how to get some info about our phones by dialing *#*#4636#*#*. Being curious, i found this link to do more:

http://mobilespecs.net/phone/codes/Motorola/Motorola_Moto_X_Pure_Edition_2015.html

CAUTION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Some seem pretty dangerous so use at your own risk. At worst, I guess they could brick your phone but I am reasonably sure will not launch any nukes.

Enjoy, or not.

Specifically, I read about turning on WiFi Calling which I thought was not possible on my VZW MXP. A Magisk module, "VoEnabler", says it will turn it on and seems to do so. Causing concern was that VoLTE settings were now gone. The code at the top presents a menu of info one of which showed VoLTE was still provisioned. Makes me think Magisk module, "VoEnabler", is dual purpose. Turns on both VoLTE and WiFi Calling?
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acejavelin:
Not really a secret and many listed are extremely dated (early 2000's) generic codes or carrier specific... if you went down the list I bet you would find 75% of them don't do anything. There are some apps in the play store that do similar things but from a menu (it invokes the system application the code is used for), one that comes to mind is called Hidden Menus but I am sure there are others.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Paparasee:
Hi folks,

Back after a while ... I was in the Middle east and had purchased the Note 5 (SM-N920C) that had the United Arab Emirates (XSG) version of firmware. I had leave the Middle East recently and have moved to India. Back here in India, I find that:

a) I'm tied to a UAE version of Samsung Pay

b) I cannot access apps available only for India (YouTube Go for example)

In an effort to sort my problem I'm considering switching firmware. Do you think this is possible? A quick search reveals that I may not be in luck but I thought I might as well ask and have my fear confirmed :)

Thank you for any input :)

Some incredible features of MiA1 :

1. 5sec super fast finger print scanner

2. Best Low Light camera

3. Best signal range

4. Best video recording camera

5. Fastest software developments

6. Amazing inbuilt FM Radio

7. No app crashing

If you guy's know any other features of MiA1 comment it...
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Localhorst86:
nice trolling attempt.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] ГАСООП:
Just bought it yesterday. Coming from an axon 7. So far its okay, but i honestly think that the camera is mediocre at best. Im worried about battery life too.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] sooti:
1. Very funny, fingerprint sensor is quite good, november update did some bug but im sure they will fix it next version

2. Using google camera it's on par to all other cameras more or less, using native camera I agree, quite horrible

3. No signal issues, in fact its better then my g3

4. Video is bad, i agree

5. Software actually is much faster then most other devices, and is pretty close to nexus releases, I work with almost the entire pixel/nexus series so I know. only reason oreo isn't out yet is because they already launched with Nougat and it takes time to develop a new build. remember that Google work for months on builds for their devices, if Xiaomi released it too quickly everyone here would whine what a terrible company Xiaomi is for releasing such a bug filled update. I'm sure android P will be out much faster

6. Who still uses FM radio? anyway install Spirit2 and it works fine

7. No app crashes here... if you have app crashes 99% of the time it's your apps fault unless its a system app crash

Nice trolling attempt as others have said.. for $200 it's def the best of it's category bar none
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Aryansareen15:
There is no FM radio
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] djgholum:
I have this device with November update, everything fine BUT, I have a big problem: all apps like feedly, Instagram, telegram etc get new start during using the app (not phone, just app), so all new messages shown as read.

After factory reset still the same problem. Any idea?
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] arielpa:
How do you use the FM radio in this phone?
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] ydd0ras:
I don't understand your intention. Before buying a device, read reviews, reviews and reviews!

BTW:

1. 5ms on my A1

2. It could be better indeed. Use other camera app, like Footej camera, Google or Snapdragon camera

3. Perfect here, nothing but perfect

4. Not pretty with stock camera app, try Footej

5. Why, where is the problem? The security patch level is from 6th November, the latest build from 18. November. And do you think with Oreo your device will turn to gold. It is nothing special about Oreo. Have tested it on several devices.

6. Where you have read, there is a in-built FM radio? And who need an FM radio these days

7. I have my device exactly 7 days: rooted with magisk, installed a Firewall, Adblocker Viper4Android, Substratum and lot of mods. Not a single crash or reboot. Absolutely nothing. 2 days with one battery charge, 9 hours SOT.

I had never a better device for 200 €/$ and I can imagine what will happen once the kernel sources have been released.

If you're not satisfied with your tissot, you can sale it to me. And be happy without the best phone ever made!

Cheers!
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] tonycapuozzo:
You need to be rooted and install Spirit2 FM

Cheers
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] zazzy24:
i can agree with some of the other comments but 9 hours sot?? Unless they shipped you a Mi A1 with redmi note 4's battery inside i think that is ridiculous. Or probably you use your phone like a nokia 3310 without any 3rd party app installed otherwise its simply not possible..
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] ydd0ras:
Yes, of course. No gapps (all frozen), no FB, no WA, no Insta or Snap. Greenify used, adaptive brightness is off. That's it.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] zazzy24:
No wonder.. i dont think that you should quote that SOT coz that's not a normal usage by any means... Any person who is yet undecided on whether to get this device or not might just read that and decide its the average SOT for this device and buy it only to later realise that its false/achieved with heavy modding and not using most popular social media apps..

And yes, also since you don't use any apps that are known to cause FCs on this device that is the reason that you are not facing these crashes.. coz lots of people including me are facing multiple systemui crashes everyday..
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] sooti:
I get around 6 hours of sot and am a pretty heavy user, I use all gapps , however I have created a lighter CPU govener settings to prevent the CPU from jumping so quickly to 2000mhz, seems to work quite well.. using adaptive brightness
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] zazzy24:
Oh cool! i get a similar SOT without greenify or tweaking the kernel but yeah 6 hours is the max i have got.. i have seen 7 hours and a lil more that some people are getting but 9 hours is something that is very tough to achieve with normal usage imho...

BTW i am so happy u got this device and am eagerly waiting for xiaomi to release the sources so that great devs like u can help get full potential out of the device! I had to wait for more than an year for redmi 2 sources.. i hope this time it does not take that long:rolleyes:

Also i used the lightening blade turnables for ex kernel in my G4+ to control heat issue and it worked splendidly! it did something similar making sure that the cpu sticks to lower frequencies.. Hearing this makes me pretty confident that we will have some great development for our device in future:svetius:
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] ydd0ras:
Yep, I can only report and post stuff from my device. Just wanted to let the people know, here is someone who is fully satisfied with his A1.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] zazzy24:
yeah cool bro.. didn't mean to be combative... and yes its a nice device but with a lot of FCs and crashes.. i am fully stock for the last 1 month or so and still facing these issues.. and have heard of similar issues across groups and forums.. hopefully updates or rom development will take care of it in the future:rolleyes:
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] ydd0ras:
No problem, everything is fine. I am just wondering about all this issues posted by lot of guys here or in the MIUI forum. I have really faced none of this. Maybe it is because I have frozen all gapps and I don't use social media. I am enjoying a fast, smooth and reliable device with an awesome sound, excellent GPS. Also, I have a steady and fast mobile connection. I am using the 7.11.18 build, rooted and installed TWRP of course.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Localhorst86:
No, that can't be the reason. I have not frozen any apps and I use social media (FB, WhatsApp, Instagram etc.) without any issues whatsoever. My Mobile connection is fast and steady, I don't have any force closes, my sound is also excellent (no hissing on the 3.5mm audio jack as some people reported) but I am also not using any "performance booster" tools to free up RAM or reduce power usage. I don't trust those tools.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] ydd0ras:
Are you also on 7.11.18?
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Localhorst86:
Yes, I am using the latest november update, 7.11.18. Model MDG2 (back of the phone and somewhere on the box)

I noticed that a lot of people reporting this issue are from India, maybe it's an issue with the indian model (MDI2) vs. the global model (MDG2)?
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] birdie:
Your list of wonderful features is definitely incomplete.

Stock Android is so stock! Except ... no Google Phone (can't be installed), no Google Contacts (can be installed), no Google Camera (only an old HD+less version can be installed), no Camera2API and no EIS.

Hey everyone, so I don't yet have a tilt but am going to purchase one tomorrow.

I've been doing some research into ROMs and general customizing for the tilt and have been a bit overwhelmed with all the information so please bare with me.

Do I need to do ROM flashing if I just want to change the home screen? I have a seen some cool ones that resemble the iPhone and other sleek looking home screens that I would like to add. Also, if someone wouldn't mind explaining what a cab is and how it relates to the ROM exactly I would greatly appreciate it.

Thank you.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] kyphur:
ROM = The OS (Operating System) i.e. Windows Mobile 6

Cab = Installation package for Software. Can also be used for registry tweaks.

You do not need to flash a Rom just to change your Today Screen (Home Screen is what they call it on Smartphones {lack touchscreen]).

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Eggleston11:
Hi all :)

Current setup: S7 Edge G935F, CSC: TEL, provider: Telstra , ROM: Superman 2.7 .

Problem: There is no option to video call when I try to call. I also cannot find any options in settings or the phone app to change this.

ROM developer says that it is a CSC issue. I've tried XSA CSC with no luck. The others.xml file in the TEL CSC seems to be enabling video calling but it is still not available.

e.g.

<CscFeature_IMS_EnableLTEVideoCall>TRUE</CscFeature_IMS_EnableLTEVideoCall>

<CscFeature_VoiceCall_ConfigViLTESettingMenu>TELViLTE</CscFeature_VoiceCall_ConfigViLTESettingMenu>

Any lines I could add or change? Any other ideas? Would like to keep VOLTE and VoWiFi.

Thanks for your help in advance :)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Eggleston11:
Just to let any future readers know that I did end up getting video calling to work on my S7 Edge running superman ROM 2.7 . The TEL (Australia, Telstra) CSC in the 2.5.0 selection by tkkg1994 ( https://xdaforums.com/s7-edge/development/utility-flashable-csc-selection-30-t3392957 ) enabled it for me. Keep in mind that my provider is Telstra in Australia and that is why it works for me. Both the provider and the CSC must support video calling in order for this to work. I did not end up working out what line to change but there is a line in the customer.xml file in the csc folder that looks like it enables video calling => just ctrl+F and search for "video" in that file and you should find it.

TLDR: This is indeed a CSC issue and both the telecommunications provider and the CSC must support video calling (and probably match) in order for this to work. I worked this out by flashing a more up to date CSC from my provider.
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] pahefu:
Hello everyone.

I'm have a Le Max with stock rom 19S (i dont know if it was India or CN), that i updated to stock China-20S (using the "update.zip" method), and then to China-26S from software update. I updated because of network issues on mobile.

Wifi connection works flawless, but mobile network traffic works slow / doesnt work in 3G. In 4G it works ok most of the time (even if slow) if the signal is ok.

I experimented with *#*#4636#*#* menu to do some pings, and see the connection, which goes from -60dBm nearby an antena and -110dBm far from it. The available signal types on pressing the 3dot button are "USA band" & "Band 6", without Euro tags

Used some network/traceroute tools to test the connection and got high times (like 1000ms) for some jumps, and even not jumping sometimes. One of the tools tells me that my MAC is 00:00:00:00:00:00 on the mobile interface inputs (whereas the same tool on a Huawei P8lite gives a real mac value). That's normal on Le Max 2?

Any way to improve mobile traffic on the stock roms? Should i revert to factory on 26S to remove possible old stuff from 19S/20S?

Thanks!

I have le2 x526 model and i was on stock eui 5.8.19s.

Network was getting weak and weaker from last few weeks, i thought its network provider issue so neglected it..

But now i have no service in my phone and tried to do manual search but always shows 'error in finding network'.

I flashed stock 5.9.21s rom but it didnt helped.. Hard reset didnt work..

Still facing the same issue..

Everything else are working flawlessly but no network.

I checked for RM cable inside the phone but nothing is damaged so i think i its software issue..

Any help will be appreciated..

Hello ,

Second question: If my phone is rooted, is it possible to have update OTA (or like samsung, impossible after)?

Thank you;
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] jim262:
If you replace the stock recovery with a custom recovery, like TWRP, OTAs will not work. However, if retain the stock recovery and simply boot TWRP in fastboot mode, you will be able to root your stock phone and receive OTAs. Just use the ADB command <fastboot boot twro_xxx.img> or simply flash back to a stock recovery image every time an OTA comes in.

You can't use OTAs after you root. You'll need to download the full update every time one is released and flash it in TWRP.
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] jim262:
If that is a major issue for you, use the TWRP recovery from blu_spark, otherwise, simply go into your TWRP settings and set the language to English or... Either way the language has nothing to do with functionality and it operates the basically the same.

Jim your answer wasn't Chinese to me and made perfect sense thank you. I have a doubt, if I just use "fastboot boot *TWRP*.IMG" and root and flash exposed too, will I be able to receive otas and update offically and redo boot TWRP and root and flash exposed again without problems?

No. You should NEVER take an OTA if you have root. You can dirty flash the full update zip in TWRP when they're released though.
