Hi,

I have also a non rooted phone with the same problem.

Can you please tell me how you have solved it?

Many many thanks!
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Thempo:
I haven't solved it yet. Still looking for help!
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] jjplayground:
Do you have the same problem as me? see https://xdaforums.com/mi-a1/help/phone-screen-off-reboot-t3866575 and look at the movie

Yup that is the same issue. Can I contact you somehow? I semifixed it in that I can use the phone again, but updates are impossible.

I have the same issue and the only way that I find is flashing October stock firmware and select the active partition A and then upgrade to November OTA update
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] jjplayground:
Hi,

I am very glad there is a solution but I am a noob on this topic.

Do you have a step by step manual how to do this please. Thank you so much!

It's no problem if I will loose my data.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Thempo:
Does that method wipe the phone? If I am correct you have to unlock the bootloader which requires a complete wipe of your phone.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] jjplayground:
This actually works! No flashing anymore when removed the sim card.

But when I place the sim card in again. It's starts flashing again :(

I placed the sim in another phone and removed the pin for the sim card, NOT THE PHONE and yes I can use the phone again.

Thanks so much!
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] dimmak:
Yes. There seems to be a bug in the PIN screen. So when you disable your PIN you can enter your phone.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] jjplayground:
Thanks so much I have placed the sim card in another phone and remove the PIN there and placed it back and it works.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] dimmak:
You can also take out your sim from your Mi A1, boot your Mi A1, disable pin in settings, shut off, put your sim back and boot.

That's what I did with my wife's phone.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Thempo:
So we can't use a PIN anymore? That's the security update this month? :confused:
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] dimmak:
For now. When you set your device language on English you can use your PIN. Otherwise wait till fix.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] jjplayground:
I think you can also prevent your device before booting by a pattern, etc.

It's no the best I am really happy the phone can be used again.

I have to install everything again because I tried several factory resets :(
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] TrueMS:
Dont update to November patch, in my case battery life is worse.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] dfranco51207:

Right, well I don't know what your situation is with modding your Mi A2, but I discovered that after you've unlocked the bootloader & installed Magisk Root that if the flash this "MiUi Camera All Features" Magisk Module from another thread, this enables The Full level 3 Camera 2 API:

https://xdaforums.com/mi-a2/themes/miui-camara-features-magisk-t3841269

This is a fantastic upgrade over the stock MiA2 camera app in itself. Xiaomi basically gimped the camera's features, as to not upstage much more expensive Xiaomi phones and this releases them such as 4k30p front video recording and enhanced HDR Pro Modes which work brilliantly.

However, the upshot of flashing this enabling Camera 2 is amazing for this reason. Just today I've been testing [MENTION=4860033]Arnova8G2[/MENTION] 's port of the Pixel 3 app and the HDR+ Enhanced is next level stuff. Portrait mode, front & back ,is also working fine.

Google said that the camera2api is coming with Android Pie. It is not present in the current beta but it might be later.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] AsItLies:
If you're referring to the 'Camera 2 API Will be enabled in android Pie CONFIRMED' thread, then the following is exactly what was said:

"Starting with Android Pie, newly launching devices are expected to have newer camera HAL versions, which will enable better support for camera2."

Does that include the A2? Because it's not a "newly launching device". And the statement implies, imho, it will be newly launching devices that launch with Pie.

That's not the A2. I wish they would enable it. but that statement above is a reach to believe "Google said that the camera2api is coming with Android Pie". they said newly launching, not upgraded to.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Technicalyog:
If Xiaomi giving camera 2 API in miui 10 update to its all phone then there is no reason that Xiaomi will not give it to mi A2. I am pretty confident that with the demand and competition Xiaomi will provide this feature to this device shortly.

Don't create a thread affirming something that you have no proof of.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] minnuss:
Google is expanding their camera development, and that is the one of the main parts and improvements of PIE it self, to support multi cameras for example, you can read all about that on the official Android PIE page, but that doesn't mean nothing for us, unfortunately.

"Multi-camera support and camera updates

On devices running Android 9, you can access streams simultaneously from two or more physical cameras. On devices with either dual-front or dual-back cameras, you can create innovative features not possible with just a single camera, such as seamless zoom, bokeh, and stereo vision. The API also lets you call a logical or fused camera stream that automatically switches between two or more cameras.

Other improvements in camera include additional Session parameters that help to reduce delays during initial capture, and surface sharing that lets camera clients handle various use cases without the need to stop and start camera streaming. We've also added APIs for display-based flash support and access to OIS timestamps for app-level image stabilization and special effects.

In Android 9 the multi-camera API supports monochrome cameras for devices with FULL or LIMITED capability. Monochrome output is achieved via the YUV_420_888 format with Y as grayscale, U (Cb) as 128, and V (Cr) as 128.

Android 9 also enables support for external USB/UVC cameras on supported devices."

[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Technicalyog:
Guys, by my post I am not affirming anything. I read some news about camera 2 API being enabled by Xiaomi for all its phones by miui 10 update and that has already been released for China.. so I am just trying to say that the probability of getting camera 2 API for this phone are very high now. In android pie or in coming updates we could get it. So no affirmative post but high probability post. Thanks

After I bought BT headset (Panasonic RP-NJ300B) I faced some stutters during audio play, btw I didn't use wi-fi with BT so there isnt some connection problems. Tried headset on other phones, they work fine

Can someone help with it?
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] coremania:
If you want help, you should give some more informations. Which rom, which firmware ? Are other headsets working on your mi a1 ? Did you try different roms ?

[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] coremania:
You won't loose your warranty, you can always flash back stock and relock the bootloader. Maybe it's enough if you flash an older modem.

Hi folks. Is anyone here also facing this problem?

When you are wearing a polarised lenses sunglass :cool: , the screen gets very dark, and the only way to see the screen contents is to put the phone in a diagonal of your sunglasses or use it in portrait mode.

What are the technical reasons behind this issue?

I've found only this thread on Reddit about the issue, with no further clarifications.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] prokaryotic cell:
Yeah, that's been the worst about this phone for me. I wonder if screen protectors really help with that.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] blowtorch:
Applying a tempered glass screen protector will help significantly with this.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] pureexe:
if you looking for technical reasons. I will explain it by keeping it simple.

IPS screen (like MI A2). use white light pass through polarizing film to create color.

For sample. You need to display a red color. Polarizing film let red color pass through film but other colors won't pass.

and The color that creates by IPS screen method is polarized light.

and when polarized light pass through another polarizer (your glasses) that have a different angle of polarizer. it made some light not pass your glasses.

To solve

this problem it has 2 ways.

1. rotate your phone.

[YOUTUBE]r-9uMxmj-HQ[/YOUTUBE]

2. make polarized light from your phone to unpolarized again. by Light scattering.

This method is more complex. but lucky you can make simple light scattering by apply screen protector.

but not all screen protector can light scattering. when you leave the protector under sunlight. you must see rainbow effect like this.

:)
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] Ironmaniaco:
Thank you sir. You gave a great explanation.

Yea, based on others experiences inside this topic and your tip, i'll test out some glass shields and see if some of them could reduce the polarized effect.

Also, this rainbow effect you've described i can see on common glasses and car lights using my sunglasses :)
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] ILA:
I thought that I wouldn't be able to use my phone with my glasses and have gotten used to it during the month that I had the phone. After applying a generic tempered glass, by accident I've noticed that I can see almost 100% of the brightness of the phone no matter the orientation so just apply a screen protector and you're good to go ;)
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] Ironmaniaco:
That's true. My tempered glass protections from China got delivered. After installing it on my phone i was able to see the screen again with sunglasses :cool: :cool:

Pretty cheap and useful workaround.
[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] GuestK00219:
So you have switched to _b and now you have a brick detected by PC only in hs-usb qdloader 9008 mode and blankflash gives you errors instead of fastboot.

Here is what you need to do to get into bootloader, switch back to _a and reflash stock rom.

1. Download loader.img kindly provided by [MENTION=313316]Willy33[/MENTION] - loader.img

This file was can be generated using adb and working phone like this:

adb shell

su

dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0 of=/sdcard/loader.img bs=1024 count=168960

exit

adb pull /sdcard/loader.img

count=168960 can be larger but this one worked and we don't need 64GB for what we are doing here. it should give you ~185MB loader.img file.

2. Flash loader.img to micro SD card using this command:

sudo dd if=loader.img of=/dev/sdc bs=1024

It doesn't have to be /dev/sdc in your case. it can be sdb, sdd, sde,...

Class 4 SD didn't work for me, this procedure worked after i tried Sandisk Ultra 64GB Class 10, A1, MicroSDXC, U1.... card. Just use class 10 SD card. [MENTION=313316]Willy33[/MENTION] tried 64GB SD card too and it worked for him.

3. Insert SD card in your phone.

4. Hold Volume down and Power button until bootloader appears

The thing you see now is booted from SD card. Theoretically if you make 64GB loader.img you should be able to boot the whole system from SD card. Can be useful if your emmc dies and yous have fast enough SD card or you want to use i don't know 512GB sd card as internal card.

Don't try to flash anything yet or fastboot --set-active=a, it won't work.

If you run fastboot getvar all you should see if _a or _b is active.

5. Download gpt.bin

I'm not sure this is all the same for all models, use the one from stock ROM for your model if you can to be sure you don't modify partition table or something.

6. Flash gpt.bin:

fastboot flash partition gpt.bin

This will set _a as active back again.

7. Pull the SD card out of your phone.

8. Hold Volume down and Power button until your phone reboots and bootloader show up.

If it does you're done. fastboot getvar all should give you _a as active and you can reflash stock ROM if you want to.

This procedure should work for other moto models. Maybe they can all boot from SD.

Good luck and big thanks to all the people who helped me like [MENTION=313316]Willy33[/MENTION], [MENTION=6298645]erfanoabdi[/MENTION] and [MENTION=1829889]vache[/MENTION].

Hi Guyz,

I'm looking for Alarm Clock cab, which acts ie. like in cell phones, don't stop after one play.

Does anybody find interensting?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] AdmiralK:
I've been using Chronos (http://www.activekitten.com/en/games/detail.php?ID=351).

I used to like BurrOak's pTravelalarm but if you can get it work satisfactorily with the TyTn II you're a better man than me. I used to use it with my iMate JAM with no problems but both my Hermes and Kaiser phones went badly wrong when installed it so maybe best avoided that one. I had to hard reset both devices after installed pTravelalarm, just awful.

No such problems so far with Chronos and it does what you want and few more things besides.

I know we can download an APK for camera P3 and get the feature but why is it taking so long for Google to release the official features advertised? It's been a month the device has been out now, do we have any official release dates?
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] PuffDaddy_d:
Short answer: no one knows
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] ptm88:
Certainly is ridiculous, you advertise features that don't release with a phone. Between that and the memory issues they can't fix quick enough they wonder why they can't get people from Apple to convert over. Just terrible business...
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] sstanton86:
If they're taking longer to iron out bugs and improve the feature, in my opinion they can take as long as they like.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] PuffDaddy_d:
It's not that big of a deal. It's only been out for 4 weeks. Plus, companies including Apple regularly advertise features that don't get added until after the device launches. The original portrait mode for Apple devices came out months after the phone launched.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] bobby janow:
Apple users never convert, you should know that. Night mode will not make them either.

If you're simply dying for the feature there is an apk that will install a second app drawer camera with the feature until it's merged into the regular one.

[General Questions and Answers] cHECKjAM:
Hi,

Im gonna root my samsung Note8. I want to use stock rom but I just want root access.

So Im wondering how to think about backup and restore as I have never done that stuff before.

Do I just backup all the settings and apps I currently have with some app (if so what app?).

Then I just restore everything to the same state after rooting and reinstalling stock firmware? Does that work well because from my experience when reformatting a computer u generally want to setup everything from default again and just save the files basically, but settings no.

Then every time there will be an update for the phone and I want to flash the newest firmware that was released, I just simply backup everything in the current state, apply firmware update, then restore again in the new firmware?

Sorry for newb questions I just want to know if I understand everything correct before I start.. So I dont need to start over and over again after each new flash because setting up phone and all the apps and settings normally takes me like 3-4 hours as Im very privacy oriented and dont want to leak all my info to google and facebook etc..

Thanks!
