Stock rom is built by Xiaomi and approved by Google. Xiaomi should fix the bugs. Hopefully they take the feedback reports of users into account.

Custom roms to my knowledge do not contribute to the official stock roms.

[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Lupin The Third:
There's always a chance that you might loose your data.

Theoretically if you have an unlocked bootloader and choose the save_userdata in miflash tool it should preserve the data.

However, always backup first, just in case. :)

Best, most time effective means to learn Python?

Currently using Learn Python app and Grasshopper app.

Hello everybody,

Could anybody please tell me how to remount system as read-write on Xiaomi Mi A1? Because of the dual slot system, the usual method doesn't work at all...

I got root with Magisk and obviously my device is unlocked. It has stock Android One ROM, Nougat version.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Lupin The Third:
Like you always do. You can use Total commander and give the app root permissions when asked and in app settings. Then you can mount the system as you like.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Atronid:
Thank you for your answer! However, I don't understand.

The app you are talking about is a file explorer. How can I remount system as read-write with this? Are you sure this will work? (The phone has an A/B Slot system, so the usual command "mount -o rw,remount /system" performed directly in Terminal Emulator or any app won't work)
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Lupin The Third:
Yes it is an app. If you have flashed magisk you can mount the system rw or r.

See the screenshot attached, the buttons in the bottom.

Turn the phone into landscape to see the rw button.

Don't forget to enable root access in the apps settings.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Atronid:
Root access is granted to the app.

I browsed to the system folder but even in landscape mode there is no RW button.

And I really had to browse from the root of the phone, system was not an available mount point for the app.

Edit: I finally managed to make the read write button appear, but it's to remount the root (/) as read only. I can't target the system and remount as read-write
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] alkesh95:
Try x-plore if you still haven't found the solution.

Tap triple dot -> configuration-> root access.

You'll get option to mount as writable.

Edit: mounting root (/) as writable makes system writable too. As /system falls under root (/).
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Atronid:
Root (/) is already writable because I can switch it to read only with Total Commander. And root can be writable without the system being writable, it all depends of the mount points available. And for dark reasons it is not the case for system.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] falconia5:
My Mi A1 just arrived, absolutely thrilled with it, amazing quality and performance.

Now the main reason I bought it is the audio. I put on the same headphones I used on my redmi note 3 pro, and the sound is... just low.

I do some googling and it turns out it's an OTA update that ruined it.

I also found plenty of posts saying this can fix it, that can fix it, and all of it requires fastboot/root.

That's no problem, but I have an aversion to customing phones I just got, so would someone just link me to a certified, clean way to fix the audio thing, without messing with android one too much?

Thank you

You're not going to find a kernel with 'awesome performance' and 'running smooth'. Stock is the most stable and custom kernels are good for messing with settings about but aren't going to be stable or good for the battery in the long run because they might have forced quick charging and overclocked the gpu/cpu.

Void doesn't have any performance tweaking but should be stable.

---------- Post added at 01:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:17 PM ----------

I think the latest stock rom which had high headphone sound levels was the latest Nougat from Dec2017 but the noise levels are also higher. You could try flashing the stock Dec2017 rom. The download website is down so you might have to contact support directly or look for it on your own.

I you say that you have that with every custom rom, sound like a bad habit of killing the apps from the recent apps. You should leave the apps that send you notifications running in the background.

Too, a wrongly set battery optimisation for those specific apps.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Xaviers101:
I think its sth to do with GCM token and since using custom roms means restoring apps through titanium, this resets token that get registered. I dont know much in detail but i have read few things online . Sadly haven't come across any proper fix to this.

I have a qn. Does Not installing gapps while flashing custom rom hamper the apps ability to receive notifications? For apps like messenger, wapp, etc??

If i dont flash gapps while flashing rom, i wont be able to install google apps like gmail, google now, news or anyother google apps frm play store. Correct me if m wrong
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Lupin The Third:
Never heard of that. I have flashed so many roms and gapps...

Now that you gave another piece of information, i would suggest you try a clean flash without restoring app data and see how that goes.

You'll isolate the problem.

Hello varben!

I need your help. My mom got an 'a from her employee. it was working fine until we wanted to put in her second sim card into the phone. it wasn't a nano sim so only the original sim was in the device and when i powered it back on the phone asked for the pin code. But the code fro the sim card didn't work. Then after several tries it did not locked the sim asking for the ouk code. So i tried the securuty code for her google account as somebody suggested from an other forum. but it didn't work. now the phone is threatening 3 more tries and then all data will be deleted....

what can i do?

stock rom.

thanks.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Lupin The Third:
It's hard if I don't see what's really happening.

However, it looks like it's asking for the phone's pin not SIM card's pin.

Did you have any security pin for the phone's startup?
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Mogyi19:
Unfortunately my brother did the first setup but he said he only changed the sim's pin, he didn't meet with this phone security pin. Does the phone has a default number for that?
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Lupin The Third:
No, there's no default security pin.

You may want to ask your brother about the number he used. Probably that's the pin you need.

The phone's security setup is standard procedure during setup.

Varben, should the persist partition be backed (just in case for reverting back to stock from custom roms) for each update or major rom release? And is it the same as the EFS partition backup in TWRP.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] JohnGFX:
Thank you so much :)
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Lupin The Third:
Backing up efs and persist is a good idea when you change roms.

Efs and persist are different.

You can use "partition backup&restore" from playstore to backup "efs" and persist partition.

modemst1 and modemst2 is your efs. :)
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Lupin The Third:
Can't recommend any custom kernel as I'm not on stock rom yet. However, I use custom kernels very rarely. Stock is enough for me :)
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] barrack1:
What I mean is do the EFS and persist partitions change with every rom update even minor ones eg 9.5.10 -> 9.5.13

The June updated was rolled back since it had a known bug of erasing all your messages (for some users) once that issue is fixed, it may be rolled out again.

---------- Post added at 10:22 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:18 AM ----------

I've been asking this question in a lot of forums with no solution at all. My battery has started to drain big time and I've been having this issue since 2nd week of May. Below are what I have tried already.

The battery has started to drain big time and the Android system is consuming most of the power.

1. Calibrating my battery.

2. Factory reset to January update.

3. Stopping the apps running in the background.

4. Turning off location / wifi and internet.

5. Tried disabling backup of photos.

6. Disabled app preview messages under Google.

7. Tried replacing the physical battery at the service center.

8. Currently running on the June 2018 patch.

Despite doing all this the battery drains big time, even when it's idle, when I'm sleeping.

I'm unable to upload screenshot because it keeps saying that there's a network issue. But the screenshot stats say that the android os consumes most of the battery and SoT was 30 minutes. Phone was idle for most of the time. It came down 100-20% in a few hours.

I believe it could be an issue with wakelock. Is there a probable solution for this? Will replacing the motherboard make any difference?
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] barrack1:
Thats probably because the larger storage sizes allow greater number of interleaving nand banks which can allow higher total write speeds in parallel. SSDs are also like this.

Weren't you very insistent in another thread saying that custom kernels could not be responsible for problems with decreased battery life?
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Xaviers101:
If i remember it correctly and m correct yea. U were making a statement that fine day, that custom kernel provides worse battery life compared to stock. In my post here m simply trying to compare which kernel or kernel+rom combo provide better battery life. Unlike you m nt stating here that custom kernel provides diminished battery life compared to stock kernel.

For me to perform this, it says "clear my cache partition". But my Mi A1 stock recovery only has "wipe cache / user data". So I wanted to know if they're the same.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] kudos1uk:
If you only want to wipe the cache you can do it by one app at a time in Settings>apps or quicker use the built in file explorer app "Explorer" and click clean up at the bottom.

It will offer to clean the cache for each app but also other files and folders, if you don't want to delete them just uncheck them.

If you clear data as well, all data will be gone, the app will be just like you downloaded it from play store fresh.
