[Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers] conmu:
Hi guys,

I'm trying to find ROM that supports encryption. There are two options available:

1. Encrypt using lock screen password

2. Encrypt device

The first one does nothing. I tried booting into TWRP and see all files unencrypted that are supposed to be, according to the disclaimer.

The second does not finish, it just gets to 100% and then stuck (I waited for a few hours) and the only way it to reboot having corrupted FS.

So the question is how to enable data encryption?

I tried almost everything global stable, Chinese stable and dev ROMS, original and miuipro and xioami.eu. And everything with the same outcome.
[Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers] Dobsgw:
MIUI should be using file based encryption which will be present when you boot the ROM.

No need to enable it. Just don't disable it....

Most of the Nougat ROMs for Mi 6 support file based encryption now so all you need do is FORMAT data (not just wipe) and it will be present.

My suggestion would be to install and MIUI stock ROM and then format data (that includes internal storage so backup if you are using it now).

Then reboot and start phone as clean device.

There doesn't seem to be an advantage to using ROMs that don't have file based encryption and then trying to enable it later.

Rom either has FBE or it doesn't have encryption at all for me :/
[Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers] conmu:
Does it work for you? How do you confirm this?

I did format from TWRP, ran through setup and took a photo.

I still can access files and can see the content without entering any password from TWRP.

By default all encryption options are unset in MIUI.

You are saying right things if that would be vanilla Android but it seems something is broken in MIUI.
[Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers] valeriopastore20:
I flashed last global stable rom (1.9Gb .tgz) using mi flash tool after a format data in twrp and the device was encrypted by default. I only had to switch on "encrypt using lockscreen password" in privacy settings. But i don't know why even though i flash twrp the stock recovery returns after every reboot

[Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers] Dobsgw:
You have to disable the stock recovery being reflashed from system with a script.

Not sure where you get that though it comes default with Coffaces TWRP.

Are you using the official TWRP?

If so does it work properly?
[Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers] valeriopastore20:
I'm using this one

https://xdaforums.com/mi-6/development/recovery-twrp-3-1-1-0-xiaomi-mi6-t3608008

because with other recoveries i had problems while restoring data from backup (error 255).
[Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers] Dobsgw:
Okay cool.

Doesn't look like it has decryption support so maybe I'll try official
[Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers] conmu:
Sorry for the stupid question but how did you understand this? :confused: What is the actual check to confirm this?
[Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers] Dobsgw:
Settings - security - encryption = "phone encrypted"
[Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers] valeriopastore20:
in privacy settings you will see something like this (i don't have miui9 encrypted anymore so i looked for a screenshot on google) http://attach.en.miui.com/forum/201604/10/202340xmpnzcaciianqnpg.png
[Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers] conmu:
SYSTEM & DEVICE > Additional settings > Privacy: Advanced # Encrypt phone

If this it then that is point #2 from my initial message and that never finishes with any ROM I tried :(

So you say this is enabled right after the flashing and you did not actually ran "Encrypt phone" from this menu (that only works if battery charged above 80%)?

And when you boot into TWRP it asks for a password?
[Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers] Dobsgw:
Never had to manually encrypt no.

Just choose a ROM with FBE enabled. That includes MIUI stock.

Flash it and then format data with TWRP.

On first boot it creates the encryption.

Then when you set a password this is your key.

When you boot to TWRP it will ask for the password to decrypt. Password is your pin.
[Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers] conmu:
Did you flash it via TWRP and formatted without reboot in the same session within TWRP? That is probably the only way I did not try.
[Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers] Dobsgw:
Yeah that would be the best way.

Formatting data deletes entire SD card so back it up to PC!

I Can't get the dex app to start. I have a powered hmdi usb c adapter with a power supply attatched. I get mirrored mode when I plug it in but no android system notification that dex is available to switch it to it. I can't even find samsung dex on the phone at all when I do a search. Is it possible it isnt installed somehow? Would really like to get this working.

Thanks guys.

[LG G5 Questions & Answers] luckana:
Hello guys i have this very weird issue and i dont know when exactly it first occured and what the reason is. Basically both autofocus and manual focus of the rear camera(not the wide angle one) arent working, the image just remains slightly blurred. It attempts to refocus but to no avail. The only thing that i could think about is the latest software update i installed some weeks ago. Havent done factory reset since i bought it 7 months ago, could it possibly be a software bug or ahould i procceed with the warranty, thanks in advance:o
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] Colt3425:
The problem isn't software... Unfortunately the G5 was plagued with poor camera hardware. I just replaced mine last night with a $20 camera from eBay. It took less than 10 mins to do. It's a very simple replacement process. There are plenty of videos showing how to do it as well. Good luck!
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] recordman:
Hi. Could you post the link of the module you bought? There are 3rd party camera modules, but I don't know if they are comparable to the factory one. Thanks.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] einsteino:
Hi is your replaced camera still working fine?
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] fahadmeyo:
Hey I am having the same issue. Autofocus does not work on the primary camera. Fortunately, I am getting a new camera module in under $ 10 here in pakistan. My LG g5 is Korean variant ( LG U+) and the camera replacement available is of (H830) model. so I wanted to ask like can I replace my faulty camera with this other variant's camera?

hey guys!

i just tried some themes on my pixel 2 xl with stock oreo and root. and now my notification bar (which should be white as far as i recall) stays black, even if all themes are deactivated and everything should be back to stock.

any ideas?

it matches the wallpaper.

can be deleted here :)

[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] jhs39:
Owning an OP5 and then upgrading to the 5T 6 months later rewards One Plus for being complete pricks. If I was a millionaire I still wouldn't do it.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] halloj:
No, why should I?
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] azeem40:
Same generation upgrades are almost never worth it. I'm quite happy with my OnePlus 5.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] 3DSammy:
No, moving the fingerprint scanner to the back just for an extended screen of softkeys is not nearly enough reason to upgrade. I'll wait at least a generation in phone tech for bezel less displays and secure face recognition to mature before my next phone. I came from a still working Nexus 5 to the OP5 so I know how to wait.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] dlads:
I've never seen the birth and death of a flagship in such a short period of time, I think Oneplus need to really never do this again, not only does it splinter the development community which is honestly why people buy the Oneplus (easy root, no warranty void etc, great custom roms...)

The Oneplus 5 is around six months old? I find it unfathomable that it's obsolete and isn't even available on their website no longer? A year maybe but not less than six months thats crazy, it's a kick in the teeth to anyone who bought the Oneplus 5.

On paper would i upgrade? Absolutely not.

In the real world do I want the Oneplus 5T? Yea sure but literally for the screen, it's in no way shape or form a worthy upgrade and anyone contemplating this device as an upgrade coming from the 1+5 needs their head testing.

If i was on a different device then yea I would grab it but from their track record I would seriously think twice.

The 5T should have been the only device launched this year, Oneplus needs to fix their deployment.

Sorry Rant over ! ;)
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] Eric214:
Nah, It's pointless. Bigger screen with same 1080p so its lower ppi, It's nice that it has small bezels but needed a QHD display. Plus with the same size battery and .5" larger screen, battery life will certainly not be the same and I love getting 10-12 hours of SOT per charge with medium to heavy usage. The new second shooter might be nicer to have then the Tele lens but this camera is WAY more then adequate for everyday. If I need serious shots I'll just use me Nikon.

100% satisfied with my OP5. I'll wait for the 6 or maybe wait til a 6T.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] tech_infinity:
Actually the ppi is same in both Oneplus 5(1980*1080:resolution) and 5T(2160*1080:resolution). We'll anyway get face unlock one way or another. Though I would really love the bigger bezeless display! Don't use camera much.

I see no reason to sell my oneplus 5 that I bought 2.5 months ago with an original pierre cardin case. So total cost= 33700 rupees.

At best I can sell my 5T for maybe 25000-27000 rupees after much time waste and headache. Then to buy 5T for 33000 rupees. Too expensive for me?.

[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] rickysidhu_:
I would but only if my current 5 sells, which I haven't had any luck with. I don't think very many people know about OnePlus so I haven't been getting as many offers as I did back when I had my iPhone and even OG Pixel up for sale
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] dkryder:
i'm not planning on it. if they would offer a deal for op5 owners of a reduction of $100US then probably. maybe if sales of the 5T suck bad enough they do some type of incentive. but, i doubt it.

when they do stuff like this 5T crap it is destructive of value of the op5.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] ummduh:
Nope. Glad I got the std 5 when I did, right before they stopped selling them. I'm not a fan of soft buttons. I like "physical" buttons. I can't think of any benefits for a slightly longer screen but there are tons of drawbacks, for how I use my devices.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] isko01:
I have Op3T the OP5. OP5 is good phone but if I want to upgrade it will be Samsung S9 or LG V30.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] dlads:
That's not a bad shout to be honest. They really should offer a trade in fit selling a phone that is essentially obsolete within less time than it takes to grow a crap beard.

They didn't even apologise.

[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] MrWilsonxD:
Ips screen ?????
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] dlads:
To be completely honest, even with all the new phones coming out this year, I still wouldn't swap my 1+5, not being biased, I just prefer it.

There's only two things I'd change.

OIS for the camera.

Proper mhl support.

Maybe waterproofing?

How does the 5T fare on benchmarks compared to the 5? I'm guessing with the slightly reduced screen resolution the 5 will best it
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] dego_:
I just love having finger print scanner on the front panel. Otherwise I wouldn't just use it. Love my OP5
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] ulxerker:
No reason for that, because in fact its just about the new display, and that's not worth it for me.

Also, I don't want to support their business strategy of releasing a new device only 4 months after the last one.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] Pho3nX:
Definitively... No

Seriously, if you have already a OP5, buy a OP5T is useless.. I will wait 5/6 months now for the 6 ;)
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] tafo:
No ill not update to 5t or even to any new oneplus phones ..this is my first and last one and im really getting sick of them
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] hannki:
I would upgraded if I could sell my 5, but it looks like impossible task now. No offers from my pristine condition device and some people are selling their 5's with absolutely ludicrous prices (couple days old devices are sold with 300€). Release of 5t destroyed my 5's resell value.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] daniel_loft:
No, because of the missing hardware buttons and the fingerprint sensor on the back!
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] ulxerker:
Word!
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] SysAdmNj:
No, because oneplus 5 is the last best oneplus device.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] RogerF81:
No. of course not. The 5T has not more to offer than the OP despite the camera. And I don't take that much photos and even if, I wouldn't "upgrade". Technically, moving from OP5 to OP5T isn't even an "upgrade".
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] dlads:
This thread is decent for people who are just annoyed at oneplus for having the balls to do what they did..I'll never buy another of their phones again, I'm a HTC nut and their newest phone is rocking Oreo with treble I think.

Not a fair swap, ois, 835, ? Why did I bother.

This is 100% the last Oneplus I ever buy. No more for me...

They sold me a £500 phone, now there's a better one and I'm watching my buddies enjoy the next OS with much better ROMs
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] kipue:
I think the worst this year, is that the T variant is a lot different from the non-T.

Last year I got got the same way, but at least the 3T was not such a difference from 3...

Like you, last time indeed. Not that they will care, all reviews say how great the 5T is, just making OP happy with their choice :)

Good for them ^^
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] nktwister:
Somehow I don't like the soft buttons in phone and they take up screen so no use in larger screen.. Videos have black bars or they are cropped.. Fp is the most essential feature of op5 missing in 5t.. I've never found multi tasking on phone very useful.. No change in processor or ram.. Is it really worth it to upgrade (supposedly) just to play games?
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] dlads:
They've shown their colours with how's they've treated people, I'm sure we're both not alone in giving them the proverbial middle finger.

Their next phone will be decent I'm guessing too lol..

But you'd be a idiot to get it, in fact no one should buy the number only variant, wait 5 months and get the T

[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] lunafag:
Even if I had a choice today I'd stick with 5 simply because it has more ROMs. And neither 5 nor 5t is getting Treble support. By the time 5t catches up 6 will already be on the way, but considering SD845 won't offer any spectacular performance improvements I'll skip it as well. Then I'll either get 7t(if they're going to continue releasing t versions), or something entirely different if Treble ends up being so great for custom ROMs.

[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] dunjamon:

[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] Cyclops Maran:
It's not worth the upgrade. It's better to wait for the next version probably oneplus 6
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] 350Rocket:
I think it's worth buying if you have the OnePlus 3, maybe even the OnePlus 3t although I'd probably try to stick with it for a couple years.

I prefer the fingerprint sensor on the front but having it on the back wouldn't be a deal breaker for my with the smaller bezels and larger screen. I like both phones and would probably go with the 5t if I was buying today but updating would be pointless unless I had money to burn.
