on miui 9.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] Black_Stark:
How u flashed miui 9 beta ? Using fastboot rom or recovery rom ?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] ishansarvaiya:
I did it by Recovery rom.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] Black_Stark:
Sensor not working then May be something wrong with persist partition.

Did u manually downloaded recovery rom from mi site.?

Why miui 9? Latest beta is miui 10 . go to system updater app and press update to upgrade to latest miui 10 beta version.

I think latest beta is 8.10.11 something.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] ishansarvaiya:
When I installed, I got miui 10 and stuck in the problem so I tried to install stable therefore I am now again in miui 9.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] Black_Stark:
So u on miui 9 stable?

U stuck during upgrading miui10 coz u must factory reset. Sometime rom cant boot due to data partition and apps.

So need to clear user data to succesfully boot on upgrade. So u must factory reset to clear data partition. Else u will face problems. or bootloop while upgrade.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] ishansarvaiya:
So if I just want to do the repair sensor stuff, what shall I do?

I did install TWRP but couldn't install any custom ROM, all stuck in bootloop!

What shall I do?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] Black_Stark:
Lol..u must format data in twrp.

Go to twrp and press FORMAT DATA and Type "YES" to format.

after that wipe factory reset

Flash rom

Flash gapps

Reboot
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] ishansarvaiya:
I did this procedure but still stucked in bootloop. I just want to repair persust.img, I don't need to install custom ROMs now.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] Black_Stark:
Flash latest fastboot rom with flash all option . Which Cleans everything including userdata.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] ishansarvaiya:
I tried latest fastboot ROM with flash all option as you guided, it shows an error that this file can not be flashed. After that I flashed this by EDL mode, the flashing completed successfully but the sensors are still not working!
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] Black_Stark:
Just extract the persist.img file from fastboot rom.

Put the device in fastboot mode or if it doesnt work then put in edl mode and flash.

And flash using fastboot command

fastboot devices

fasboot erase persist

fastboot flash persist persist.img

fastboot reboot

Or

easy method

u can just flash persist.img file using TWRP. if twrp ask which parttion to flash then select persist partition.

The problem is that all data have been wiped out after I update the system. When I upgrade system version from 7.0 to 8.0, I clicked the option of clean up the data, after the update is done, all Apps are cleared include phones' data, can I recover the data?

As you are currently running android nougat. I suggest you Cosmic Os 7.1.2 AOSP based.

https://xdaforums.com/moto-g-2014/development/rom-cosmic-os-t3576987

I've been using it over more than 2-3 months as my daily driver. It doesn't lag and 300+ RAM is always free with no apps open in background.

Still if you want to downgrade to marshmallow or lollipop, you'll have to do it using a PC or laptop.
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] madagascaradam:
OK, that sounds like a good start! Thanks for your suggestion! I'll wait for a few more responses and info before I decide what route to try first. If I do want to downgrade, what method do I use from PC or laptop? I've used the quickboot/adb shell commands with no trouble before, but only because I've seen step-by-step guides that tell me *what* to put in the adb shell, etc. So, can you help give me a guide on how I'd downgrade or point me to one that has a downgrade that's really fast?
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andrio:
I don't recommend downgrading to Lollipop or Marshmallow as they lack RAM management and heat up the phone while gaming plus Ui is not that good. Android Nougat has better RAM management with fluid performance and battery backup is good as well.

Here's Stock Marshmallow TWRP backup thread and it's detailed enough so that you won't brick your phone

Take a Nandroid backup before.

First, what's the model of your Titan and country?
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clockstoper:
I think it's not a good idea to downgrade to older stock as it might lead to device getting bricked .... luckily I have never faced such as an issue as I always stick to custom ROMs for my Titan ....I request you to look up Titan downgrade brick stories and get a better idea about how to avoid it ....

Also have you tried using Aex 5.6 on your phone with evolution kernel? it used to work brilliantly on mine before I jumped on to renans los 16 pie builds
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] madagascaradam:
Thanks for the extra advice. You didn't actually include the link for the thread though. Were you just waiting for my model # (below)? But yes, I'm used to doing the Nandroid backups through TWRP so that's no challenge for me.

It's an XT1068. I bought it from Amazon US but I'm living in Madagascar and have used it here most the time I've had it. It's also worked for me in South Africa and USA though too.

Anyway, I'll appreciate the link to the stock marshmallow twrp backup thread, in case that's the route I decide to go! I won't be doing any gaming on it though (wife's phone) and just need it to work well enough for phone calls, messages, and other important aspects of life. And yeah, I like the newer UI, but if it's too slow, I can't do much with it! So I'll have to think about the other suggestions people have given here and also weigh it in with the possibility of downgrading to marshmallow with that detailed step-by-step so I won't brick my phone.
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] madagascaradam:
Thanks also for your advice. I've never been bricked either, but I don't want to start, especially since we're down to 1 phone in my family right now! If someone can tell me that downgrading is definitely way smoother (as I've seen written on a few threads here, but without detailed instructions on how to do it) and if they say I can do it without bricking, then I might take that route. I haven't tried AEX on this phone, though I was using it on my Moto G3 TE before it got stolen. So yeah, that's a good idea if you say it works great. Can you link to a thread for me? Particularly when you say "with evolution kernel"... in the past I don't think I've tried a different kernel for my rom, I've always just followed step-by-steps for flashing a custom rom and gapps, that sort of thing. So if I have to do an extra step for the evolution kernel, please also tell me how or where to find the thread about it. Thanks again for your help!

[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] madagascaradam:
Thanks a lot! How do I use a different kernel than the one that comes with the ROM? Do I flash/install AEX first and *then* follow those directions for the evolution kernel? Or do I do the kernel first and then AEX? And I'm assuming I download the first kernel download link on that page (the one that says Marshmallow/Nougat Roms and "R10")? Basically, I'd really appreciate it if you'd offer more information on what it means to switch kernels and how to do that? Thanks again for your help!
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clockstoper:
Download Aex then install it first

Install rom first then make a backup of only boot install kernel after that , there is a another version of evolution kernel with overclock enabled if you feel that evolution is slow try evolutionX ,it's bit of a battery hog but runs like butter.

Switching kernels gives you access to better features in you kernel like updated tweaks, governors overclock ,undervolt ,sound gain boost etc which the stock kernel doesn't provide in most cases .....only few kernels are as up-to-date with extra features as evolution imo so try it if you don't like how it performs you can tweak it more with kernel aduitor ,for faster feeling phone I normally disable all animations under devoloper options .you can also flash evolutionx to see if it suits you or not just restore the boot backup you made and flash it then test ......

Get the kernel for Oreo as Aex 5.8 is Oreo

Before flashing plz make sure twrp is updated

Always backup important data into your mircosd card or PC

I recommend a full wipe ( system ,data, internal storage,caches) with twrp and then install the new ROM

Do let me know how it goes ....
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] madagascaradam:
Great, thanks for the advice! My weekend is busy but I'm going to give it a go on Monday or Tuesday and let you know how it turns out!
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] madagascaradam:
Hey, so I had a busy week and I'm just now getting to this. Do I still need to flash a superuser image in order to get superuser working on this (like for fx explorer root or those sort of things)? I have this superuser package I used last time I installed the ViperOS (that's super slow that I'm replacing now): SR1-SuperSU-v2.82-SR1-20170608224931.zip Do I still need that? I can't seem to find an updated one on here or maybe it's buried because it's too old. Maybe people don't use SuperSU anymore? Just wondering. Thanks for any help! And I'll let you know how the new image goes later today.
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clockstoper:
Use magisk it's way better

Plus it has all the modules ....very useful ....

Link magisk

https://xdaforums.com/apps/magisk/official-magisk-v7-universal-systemless-t3473445
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] madagascaradam:
Thanks again! So, I did try SuperSU since it looked like it'd be easy (just install that app) and the Magisk thing said better to go back to stock rom in order to make it work. But SuperSU then was a big headache, after a lot of work I got rid of it, and installed Magisk (without going back to stock rom) and everything was good. Any particular modules you'd suggest using with Magisk?

But overall: I followed your advice and everything seems good. This is my first time to use Oreo and I do like it so far. I haven't turned of animations yet, but I might soon. It's still running fairly fast like I'd expect. I still have to install a few apps on my account and I'll wait and see if that slows anything down. But my wife's account has all her stuff on it, everything logged in, and it seems like it's still smooth. I'm going to give it a few days to a week and see if anything slows it down before I report back to you.

I did have a few questions though: under the AEX extensions, it says "system app remover" and I tried to remove a couple weird apps I don't need on there (like "retro music player" - I don't have any idea how that even got there). I had to enable root for it, but it still doesn't seem to have disappeared. Any idea how to fully get rid of non-wanted system apps?

In that same area for removing system apps (built into the AEX extensions) it looks like there are quite a few theme "apps" already inside it, including even some dark themes for contacts (which I'd really appreciate). But I can't find in the rom anywhere to enable themes. If I download the substratum app, will it automatically give me access to those built-in themes or want? If you know anything about this let me know.

Also, under the aex extensions is an option for weather on the lock screen, but the weather service doesn't seem to be working at all yet. Any idea on that?

Even if you don't know about those things, that's OK, maybe I'll post and ask those questions in the AEX thread and see if anyone has anything to say there.

Overall, everything has worked great so far though, which is great and I appreciate all the advice you've given me! I'll just give it some time to see if it stays fast with regular use, and of course I need to keep making a few tweaks to it.
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clockstoper:
Glad it worked out

The ROM still has some unimplemented stuff system app remover in extensions

As for modules is use viper4android to tweak sound and

Terminal debloater to remove unwanted system apps via terminal

You need to enable it via developer options ...

And about the theme apps you found in system apps remover ,those are simply the colour overlays the system uses for automatically setting system theme based on wallpaper colour, to manually set theme you can try going into system>display >ui theme and try changing stuff there it has the pre-installed colour schemes .......

You will find the option to change the system fonts there too.....

For weather you need to enable the service by going into weather>service ......

Also to keep things smooth use greenify and greenify all the apps that don't need to run in the background .....enable agressive doze there .....

Also go into settings>extensions>system>app ops side scroll to boot up and take away boot permission from any and every app that you don't use immediately after powering your phone .....it helps speed up the phone a lot .

Go to extentions and general tweaks and turn on disable FC notifications too...

Get sd maid free and do cleanup of system cleaner and corpse finder every month end .....

Go to dialer>three dots >settings then enable proximity speakerphone it very good feature ......

Happy it all worked out for yaa ...

I have a question though ,did you do a full format in twrp ?

I mean the format data option where you need to type yes to proceed . That speed up lag on my phone after I moved from stock so next time you might wanna try that before installing a new ROM....
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ToreSalvo:
report

how it ended?
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] madagascaradam:
Thanks for all the extra advice! A lot of that certainly helped. It was actually slowing down again a bit within a few days, but greenify made an immediately noticeable difference, as well as a few of those other things you mentioned.

The weather thing still isn't working even though I have it enabled. Maybe because I'm in Madagascar and most services don't cover weather here?

I couldn't find the dialer either, so I couldn't get to its settings. I'm interested in what the proximity speakerphone does though.

I didn't do any format where I needed to type "yes" to proceed, but when I did wipe I chose every aspect of the storage and wiped all of it (even the memory card). So maybe that was just a simple delete rather than an actual format. I'll keep this in mind though next time I flash a system from start. Though I had the memory card formatted as mixed storage (gave 10 GB of it to the system ["expanded"] and the rest for normal portable use) and the expanded portion reads funny now in the storage settings - as if it had 128 GB and 118 GB were already used. That's strange, but it doesn't seem to affect anything so I'm not worrying about it.
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clockstoper:
Dialer is the phone app ..

The dialer app is what you use to call a number typing it ,it is the phone app with the telephone icon ,tap the three dots on the top right side there you will find settings ....

About the weather try changing the weather provider to Yahoo ....might work.. .

Also try getting the universal GMS doze module in magisk it stops Google services from slowing the phone ...

I personally don't use gapps at all, I have yalpstore for my app needs. if Google is not that important for you then maybe in the future you might try ROM without it .....

Hope it helps.....

if you have a 3prt profile app chack if there are settings regarding this issue ,you can also try diff ring and ring settings of the phone ,most likely you have a software that dose it ,try also to check on start/settings/sound & notification /notification if the settings are ok (play with it) as last option you can always backup your device prform hr and check this function (to know your device is ok) good luck with finding it

[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] madshark2009:
hi, if a camera is capable of taking HDR photos, why cant it record HDR videos?

is it a software thing or hardware? can any one care to provide an answer?

thanks
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] Kilek_360:
the phone actually takes HDR video, but there is two tipes of HDR

Almost every phone can take hdr videos since it ws introduced by the first Xperia Z, even before HDR photos, since HDR photos needs to combine 2 or more pictures, and video is actually a combination of pictures, so HDR video was in smartphones before HDR photos

at that time, HDR was only about exposure values, in photoa still the same, in Xperia XZ Premium you can know when its using HDR video when the auto mode changes to "backgroung light" or something like that, wich means the phone is underexposing the background and overexposing the subject to avoid burned areas in background or dark subject, same as in HDR photos

But in video HDR means two things: more than one exposure value, the same as in photos, or 10 (or more) bit image

videos are usually taken at 8bit colour depth

the HDR10 videos, wich is the HDR you see in Xperia XZ2, captures video at 10bit colour depth, wich means a bit more colour and light range

So it has nothing to do the ability to capture HDR photos with HDR10 video, and the phone can take HDR video but not 10bit HDR video

Also there is no other phone wich can capture 10bit HDR video than Xperia XZ2 series, and almost every phone can capture standar HDR photos and video
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] Inerent:
Yes, no other phone that can do 4k hdr 10 bit, only sony ???
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] Inerent:
In fact, my phone can do either 4k 60fps, either 4k hdr 10:good:

Also, before I switched to another phone, I have compared it against xz2 premium and xz3 in photo quality and the results were: sony is garbage!

Didn't want to write this, as some moderator closed my thread "it s time for me to move on", but... but.. Stop this nonsense as sony is the only one...?

---------- Post added at 08:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:16 PM ----------

[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] madshark2009:
so youre saying that my phone captures HDR videos? like thats a normal thing, but the real HDR that im talking about isnt supported (HDR10)
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] Kilek_360:
Yeah, it takes HDR video but the "old basic" HDR which takes different exposure values, not the 10bit HDR wich takes wide colour gamut
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] madshark2009:
