Thanks for your reply. I tried with this, it is reallly useful.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Questions & Answers] ashimiyy:
I'm presently on Pixel Experience Rom and have been using it as a daily driver for 3moths. There's a particular feature that has won my hear over. It's the ability to copy ALMOST ANYTHING from the recent application screen.

My question 'is this possible on our stock pie'?
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Questions & Answers] Hakkinan:
Not very close, Xiaomi's Android One Program is as close to AOSP as they can get.

About this feature, i wasn't able to reproduce it on the stock launcher so it is safe to say that it isn't included.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Questions & Answers] ashimiyy:
Thanks. I'll probably stay put with Pixel experience then
[General Questions and Answers] Qshtr:
Hello, new member here. I can't post this in Umidigi One Pro subforum, so I'm doing it here.

I'm trying to revive a Umidigi One Pro. It seems it's a case of flashing gone bad.

I can get to recovery (twrp) if I hold all three buttons for about 15 seconds and then relase and hold only vol+. Then I can choose recovery, fastboot or normal. From twrp I can't mount any partiton nor do successful wipe or install zip from SD card. I can't access the phone from PC if I choose fastboot.

I tried to flash it with SPFT a lot of times with all possible combinations of drivers, operating systems and buttons pressed.

I followed the instruction from here:

https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1982587

https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2674459

The phone is recognized by the OS, I see the red ribon, but after that the flasing doesn't happen. It time-outs in 4 minutes or so with "status download exception". I tried different computers, win 7, 8.1 and 10 (32bit and 64bit), legacy driver enabled/disabled. Also changed USB port multiple times. I've read multiple threads all over the internet and watched countless youtube videos. I also tried Linux from this thread:

https://xdaforums.com/general/rooting-roms/tutorial-how-to-setup-spflashtoollinux-t3160802

I understand there are a lot of threads just like this one. I read a lot of them and tried anything I could find. I'm out of ideas what else could be done to start the download to the phone. I can get to twrp so i Guess it's probably not hardware fault.

Can anyone help?

You will need to download TWRP and Magisk Manager, Magisk

implied that you have installed ADB and Driver

Unlocking bootloader:

Developer Option

Go to your Settings -> About -> Software Information -> More -> Now Tap on the Build Number 7-8 Times until you see a toast message “Developer option enabled”.

Settings -> Developer Option and Enable OEM Unlock and USB Debugging.

Reboot to fastboot

adb reboot bootloader

Unlocking bootloader

fastboot oem unlock

device wil reboot and wipe. after setup repeat step 1-2

Rooting

Booting Recovery

this will boot twrp. be patient this is not instantly

fastboot boot twrp.img

Copy Magisk.zip to device

adb push Magisk-v18.0.zip /sdcard

output will be something like that

Magisk-v18.0.zip: 1 file pushed. 20.0 MB/s (4188255 bytes in 0.200s)

Thanks, I can confirm it works. Will this method actually preserve OTA updates?

Which GCam mod do you suggest with pie? haven't tried yet, but I see there's an autofocus bug....
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] mattijah:
this method works fine for one of my mi A1. Gcam works good but I can't lock phone. After putting the command fastboot oem lock and reboot phone doesn't reboot fully. It starts and even first white screen flash but then screen turns black and phone doesn't response at all. I can still send comand unlock and than it is rebooting without wiping data so Gcam works but it remains unlocked.

With second phone I'm stuck in the recovery. After booting to twrp touch seems to be not working well or it doesn't work at all. Phone doesn't response, I can back to fastboot and repeat run recovery but it is the same again and again

Any advice?

I am using Arnova's GoogleCamera_6.1.021.220943556.apk in 16:9, autofocus works until you touch viewfinder after that motion focus is activating and camera not focusing correctly.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] sipollo:
There is a simpler method:

-Unlock bootloader (with vol- trick if you want to preserve data)

-boot Pie's patched_boot

-install Magisk Manager

-with a terminal emulator (after granting root access from Magisk Manager) type "setprop persist.camera.HAL3.enabled 1" without quotes and uppercase HAL

-Only if you want to you can relock bootloader (with vol- trick if you want to preserve data)

Enjoy

Could you elaborate? How/where do you get pie's patched boot? How do you boot it?

Does unlocking/relocking of bootloader and booting to twrp still wipes data?
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] shaman_:
Yes, unlocking bootloader wipes data. Locking should wipe data, but trick with volume- key helps to avoid it
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] raiden_1115:
What about booting to twrp?
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] shaman_:
it doesn't wipe data. only locking/unlocking oem

Does this also enable EIS?
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] sipollo:
Yes, but if you want to be 100% sure you can type "setprop persist.camera.eis.enable 1" after the first command.

Hello,

it is really annoying

I have not found a suitable app to modify the status bar yet.

You can, however, set the DPI setting (minimum width) higher in the developer options.

So everything gets smaller and it fits more in the status bar.

I can get battery percentage with System UI tuner (Nova launcher), but...hehe...I can see now %

But alarm icon, wifi/data icon and 1st SIM icon gone under little dot.

This is really frustrating.

And 1 more thing after PIE upgrading:

there is no alarm icon and time on lock screen

(when alarm is on).

Pie it's not an upgrade...for me look like downgrade.

EDIT:

all fine now with lock screen...by itself somehow :)

I have done a search but found nothing on this.

I have set up access to my NTL/Virgin email account on the XDA Stellar and I want to have timed send/receive on my email throughout the day, but want to turn it on to manual when at home as I am usually on the PC so have regular send/receive through Outlook. Is there a way of creating a link to do this with a one touch on/off option rather than going into email options and trawling through the wizard every time?

Not a big issue but would be quicker if there was a button or link to do this on the fly.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] NguyenHuu:

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] AeronK:
NguyenHuu thanks for that. It isn't exactly what I was looking for but is as close as possible at the moment. Its just a shame that altering the schedule on email synchronisation is so awkward having to go through the wizard every time - a direct link to that part alone is what is needed.

The programme you pointed to is very interesting and provides some good control features for email.

Thanks again.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] AeronK:
I have found exactly what I wanted - after a long search.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=332960

This programme does exactly what I wanted by adding a applet to adjust the send/receive schedule without having to go through the email account setup every time. Added a shortcut to the start menu so all sorted now, thought I would post in case someone else was also looking for a solution.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] PGenneken:
Thanks for posting your research... helped me out. Appreciate it..:)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] AeronK:
PGenneken

No problem, hope you find it as useful as I am finding it.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] AeronK:
up-date

Having used both rk-OSR and Auto Email Checker I have found that both seem to work ok for the first email check in the schedule and after that you either need to initiate a manual send/receive with Auto Email Checker or wake-up the phone for rk-OSR to work. So end result is that I am back to editing the email account to switch on and off email sheduling.

Any one else found the same problem with these two promising looking programmes?

I am using the O2 Stellar with stock rom.

[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 Questions & Answers] coolman7:
Tell me exactly what happened to your phone. QCN will not solve your problem. If you use single SIM slot, there is a workaround and you can't use SIM1 and you can't use TF card slot, because SIM2 and TF card slot share slot.
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 Questions & Answers] ghost baby:
I bought it second hand,with original box and working IMEI. Sometimes it has valid Mac address,and IMEI,but randomly (sometimes after restart) Mac address becomes 02:00:00:00 and IMEI is 0.Also when WiFi is working,after i switch it off,it won't turn on anymore(the switch is coming back to off state).I can post a link with screenshots and videos describing the issue.I tried flashing fastboot global ROM,but problem persisted.Also, baseband version is unkown.I think that EFS partition is corrupted,and i hope to fix it by flashing someone's working QCN file,while replacing both IMEIs with ones that came on the box.

[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 Questions & Answers] coolman7:
EFS partitions seems to be corrupted. Restoring QCN will not help. You need to find original EFS and restore.

If you can't find original EFS, you may try this but it may not solve your problems:

1) Backup current EFS partitions

2) Backup QCN with QPST

3) Change IMEI 1 as 0 inside QCN file, IMEI 2 as original IMEI 2

4) Erase EFS partitions

5) Reset phone to factory defaults

6) Check if IMEI is null

7) Restore modified QCN with QPST

8) Reboot phone

9) Check IMEI numbers

10) Check baseband

11) Use SIM 2 slot, don't use SIM 1 slot

I hope this will help

Also i tryed Flashing NON-HLOS.Bin and persist.img....

Tryed with EFS Backup from Same phone from a friend....

And flashing original China and Global ROM...i really tryed all what i found in Google....

QPST helped me to get my IMEI and Baseband back.

But Sim was not working.I tryed much hours all things.... i sended it back .they tryed it with EDL-Mode Flashing and nothing happend.

It endet that the Device is shipped to China (guarantee)....

I lost my Baseband and Imei after flashing Custom Kernel .And went back to normal Kernel....then the problem was still Present.
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 Questions & Answers] ghost baby:
I tried heating it's motherboard with hair dryer and it haven't worked. I think that persist and NON-HLOS.bin are flashed using fastboot rom. It seems like hardware issue,and I'll be selling my phone for replacement parts. I don't have more energy and time to spend on this crap.
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 Questions & Answers] ghost baby:
For all of you having issues,i fixed it. I removed it's motherboard completely(also i removed cameras and front flash rubber),and put it on aluminum foil and left it in the 200° heated baking oven for exactly 8:30 minutes. And after that,turned heating off and left oven opened and board in there to allow it to cool down about 40 minutes. After booting ,the phone connection worked and allowed me to OTA update from Global Stable 10.3.5.0 PEDMIXM to Global Stable 11.0.6 PEDMIXM that just came out.

I think that the heating fixed the problem,and i advise you to it as last resort,as it may leave your motherboard unusable.

First try to flash global stable 10.3.5.0 and update it to the latest version,and please tell me your result so i can indentify what the problem was.
