[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] Arkoprabho:
Choose amongst AEX, dotOS, Pixel Experience

I tried a lot of ROMs over the past few months. I used the ROMs like they would be used by any normal user. Case in point, when using RR I obviously customized it a lot, whereas with Pixel Experience there wasn't as much customization available. After trying out 10 ROMs (Bootleggers, lineage, liquid remix, AICP, Cardianl AOSP, Nitrogen OS, Pixel Experience, RR, AEX and dotOS) I have settled with AEX, with Phantom Kernel My conclusion is as follows:

When it comes to nothing but smoothness, Pixel Experience reigns supreme. None of the other ROMs felt smoother than Pixel Experience.

When it came to customization, RR beats everything else out of the water (that's expected from RR, they've always been known for this).

A good middle ground were AEX, dotOS and Nitrogen OS. I completely rejected the others. They were either too laggy or bugged out after a week.

You can be safe choosing AEX or dotOS. They both are rock solid and are officially supported + OTA updates as well.
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] lazlow_og:
which one of the above is best for battery backup. Cant help my obsession with huge battery xp
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] Arkoprabho:
I found the battery life of both AEX and dotOS to be comparable, though dot at times seemed to last longer on moderate usages.

to extract as much juice as you can, try tweaking some parameters like governors in the kernel adiutor. They are the true heroes here. (I hope I am clear that my reviews are strictly limited to santoni. I havent tried on any other device)

[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] Arkoprabho:
With Liquid Remix, I faced this weird issue where the recents screen used to lag while scrolling (when a lot of apps used to pile up). I can tolerate bad battery, but lag sort of pisses me off to a whole another level. I understand that it might be because of the low RAM size. With zram magisk module, the recents scrolling did feel smoother, but the entire phone ended up feeling sluggish. I will try it out again when they launch an update, along with the new firmware. But not till then.

---------- Post added at 02:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:55 PM ----------

Have you tried installing everything from scratch. Maybe some other persisting file is causing this issue.

I am no pro at flashing ROMs and fixing issues, but in the computer science world, almost everything can be fixed by a restart or hard reset. Next time when you install a ROM, try using the "Format data" option in the recovery followed by installation of ROM, Open GApps, Magisk and others...
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] swaraj@1:
yes, i always wipe dalvik,data,system,vendor,internal,cache before installing any rom

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] RazzMcTazz:
I just "upgraded" from an S5 to an S7 that I bought on Ebay running G930PVPU6BRD2. Coming from an S5, I just assumed (before I bought the S7) that the S7 could be rooted, but based on my web research, it seems impossible. Before I give up and live my life unrooted for the first time ever, I just want to confirm... Can I root my S7?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] KaptainRandom:
Bootloader is locked down tight.

method was found to root using 'engineering bootload'. This method yeilds limited root. No custom roms.

Sprint started updating bootloader separately of other carriers AND e-fused the bootloader so engineer bootloader no longer work on Sprint variant.

The digit '6' in G930PVPU'6'BRD2 isbthe bootloader version identifier. No going backward, e-fused.

[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Questions & Answers] r2001uk:
Hi, new owner here. Had my phone since last Thursday and so far I'm really enjoying it, although MIUI is taking some getting used to.

Anyway, I have a few questions that I've had trouble googling:

1. How does the dual sim work? I've never had dual sim and I'm considering putting my work sim in the second slot. If a phonecall comes through, will it tell me what sim/number is being called? I tend not to answer unknown numbers on my personal phone, but would need to do so on my work phone. If it's not clearly defined, I won't bother putting the sim in (it'd just be nice to carry one phone around).

2. Is the wireless charging 'fast' wireless? I bought a cheapo fast wireless stand charger and it's not clear whether it's charging fast or not. I tried my work Samsung and that confirmed that the charger is capable of fast wireless charging. I'd just like to know if the Mix is also capable of fast wireless charging.

3. Can I choose a default music player for bluetooth connections to start playing? On my Pixel, I could set GPM as default and my car/earphones could start playing music and it would launch GPM. So far on the mix, they only seem to be able to start playing if GPM is already open and a song is paused. If GPM is closed, nothing happens.

Bonus 4th question that just sprung to mind: Is there a decent tempered glass screen protector that goes down the edges? I've bought and returned a few that claimed to do this but actually barely covered the display and left ugly/uncomfortable ridges around it.

Thanks all

OnePlus 6

current OS unknown (probably 5.1.5)

stock recovery

Hi all,

since I obviously hard-bricked my OP6 recently, the only thing that the phone does is booting directly into the bootloader.

Current status:

PS C:\Android> fastboot oem device-info
...
(bootloader) Verity mode: true
(bootloader) Device unlocked: false
(bootloader) Device critical unlocked: false
(bootloader) Charger screen enabled: false
(bootloader) enable_dm_verity: true
(bootloader) have_console: false
(bootloader) selinux_type: SELINUX_TYPE_INVALID
(bootloader) boot_mode: NORMAL_MODE
(bootloader) kmemleak_detect: false
(bootloader) force_training: 0
(bootloader) mount_tempfs: 0

I'm not allowed to execute ANY commands, which are always denied by "FAILED: (remote xyz is not allowed)"

oem unlocking does not work.

Trying to boot from a boot.img via fastboot (fastboot boot yxz.img) sends the phone into a freezing boot logo screen

I'm out of ideas and beginning to get really desperate about this.

Any help?

EDIT: The MsmDownloadToolV4.0InternationalVersionOxygenOS5.1.5 fixed it, finally. After more than 5 failed attempts. (which made me lose hope).

I'm STILL curious about that remote error. What causes it and is there another way to fix it?

Hi all!

I have stucked with my LeEco x829 (4/64). I've got the bootloop after trying to send files via bluetooth and nothing I've red here or at russian 4pda helps.

I can boot into recovery or enter fastboot mode, I'm able to flash any ROM I want but I can't boot in any of them. Every time it's show me the slpashscreen and then reboots and heats up.

I tryed to flash different kernels and modems, tryed to restore my phone with FlashOne and cuoco ROM (via fastboot) nothing helps.

Also I cannot read the logs with logcat (it's erases on each boot) so I cannot see what's going wrong.

Unable to bring back to life Leeco x821, x829

You ar not the only one. I bought a Leeco x821, x829, a couple of months ago. However, since I turned it on the mobile never started properly and I was unable to start it.

I am unable to enter the recovery although I have tried many of them.

When I power it on, it keeps restarting on and on every 5 seconds.

I have tried plenty of flashable ROMs and qfil ROMs unsuccessfully.

I am desperate because I can not bring it back to life. I need some help.
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] marvelljones:
Best advice I can give to the OP is to plug the phone into a PC, make sure adb can see it, reboot into recovery, and wipe everything including data (format data). Then reboot, go back into recovery, and adb sideload the ROM of your choice (and GApps if you want).

It's worked for me in the past on my x829. I don't know why, but it worked. I used Lineage & MindTheGApps in case you want to know.

As for the person who can't enter recovery, plug into a PC, see if you can get it into fastboot mode and install TWRP from there. You probably already tried that, but it's all I got.
