[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] baccilus:
Since TWRP was still working, I did install Orange Fox recovery. I then tried installing HavocOS as well as Pixel experience, but it didn't work. I have done this before several times on Galaxy S5, S3 and even a Xolo phone. But I guess things are getting tricky now.

Is there a safer way to remove Xiaomi from my Xiaomi phone?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] pritzzy:
Yes things have changed quite a bit.

Sometimes it does happen that you boot into the recovery again after flashing the rom. In that case you need to format data and then reboot. To format data in Orange fox recovery, Go To format data in Orange fox recovery, Go to*Menu -> Manage Partitions -> Data -> Format Data*and then type "yes". It works. I installed Evolution X a week back.

So install ofox via adb, reboot to recovery, wipe cache data dalvik cache, install rom, reboot. If it boots into recovery, format data and reboot. It'll work.

Use the below link for comprehensive guides with regards to orangefox

https://wiki.orangefox.tech/en/guides

Download the latest ofox recovery from here

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] baccilus:
Following your instructions, I was able to successfully install the Evolution X ROM. There are some things I have learnt along the way:

1. Installing ROMS can sometimes encrypt the /data folder. The only solution is to do as you have instructed above as "Manage Partitions -> Data -> Format Data*", and then type

. Because I didn't know this I gave the phone to service center, who somehow screwed my phone's camera which couldn't autofocus.

2. This time I installed Orange Fox recovery directly by first extracting

recovery.img

. Then I installed the full recovery zip.

3. I have not rooted the phone yet, as I don't see a big advantage to the same.

4. Earlier ROMS were installed from external SD card. This is the first time I did it from the internal storage.

Thank you
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] pritzzy:
That is great. Cheers :)

You can use a pen drive if you have the OTG. I feel that's a better way considering if needed you can always format all partitions.

Well, when I did that and it said successful, but when I try to reboot into TWRP, by the time I rebooted, it was already replaced, or so I think.

need some help and advice. Ive followed all the process for unlocking of the bootloader. I open the app for miflash and it asks me to sign in. After sign in it takes me to my account options and does not ask me to go to the fastboot mode. The option "flash by fastboot" when pressed opens my mi account settings again. Can someone explain what im doing wrong?

Thanks [MENTION=9777125]xstasi[/MENTION] for the write up. However, I have a question.

After flashing the firmware with newflasher the first time, I then went to download mode, found I was on "b" so I set it to the "a" slot. But after powering down, now my phone will not do anything. I can't get back into the flash mode, or fastboot mode. No matter what I press, when I plug in the USB cord, the light blinks green several times but never goes solid. Any advice on how to fix this?

N00b question:

The automatically generated lineageos installation instructions recommend backing up the "trim area partition" as it contains "the" DRM keys:

https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/discovery/install#unlocking-the-bootloader

There seems to be a tool on XDA for this: https://xdaforums.com/crossdevice-dev/sony/universal-dirtycow-based-ta-backup-t3514236

Why do I need to bother with that? What would I need the DRM keys for? Does it make a difference when running lineage? Or reverting back to stock?

[Sony XA2 Ultra Guides, News, & Discussion] ultenhiemer:
You backup the TA Partition once you've booted into TWRP. Theres a section where you can backup the TA Partition through there... Unfortunately it isn't mentioned here.

---------- Post added at 04:22 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:20 AM ----------

Hmmm, I would have recommended the 'Minimal Adb and Fastboot' instead of the 'platform-tools' from Google. Less bloaty, quicker installation and same instructions as above. All thats needed is the twrp.img in the same folder where the 'Minimal Adb and Fastboot' is installed and voila!

You never mentioned the Add On SU, to add rooting capability into Lineage itself rather than third party apps, activated from the developer options once flashed.

I know GApps are a rather personal preference from person to person. But I'd personally recommend installing the Aroma package from Open GApps. Whilst it is essentially the Super package (Where it has all the Google Apps), Aroma unlike Super has a GUI where you can select what Google Apps you do and don't want installed from it. So you can add as much or as little as you need to. further on, It also has extra really useful features; before installing you can tell if you want Aroma to replace the Lineage apps with the Google versions (Such as Gallery, Camera, Contacts and Messaging... etc), because normally it will just overwrite them anyway. Finally, the most useful feature before installing GApps, is that you get the option to uninstall Lineage features. There's only 3 options (LineageOS Recorder, LineageOS Setup Wizard and LineageOS Updater), the rest dont really apply to Lineage. At the very least I'd recommend uninstalling the LineageOS Setup Wizard (But I usually uninstall all 3). I say that because Aroma also installs a Google setup wizard, thats much more useful than the Lineage one, particularly if you're updating Lineage and have previously made a backup with Google and want to quickly reinstall all your apps and settings, rather than reinstalling them one by one.
[Sony XA2 Ultra Guides, News, & Discussion] ilCactuss:
Hello guys,

I found some differences with other Newflash guides:

- you do not delete *.ta files in main folder and in boot folder;

- you delete kernel_* files instead of boot_* files in main folder;

I can't tell if those different steps make any difference, anyway.

You should mention that DRM keys are lost with bootloader unlock and that TA partition should be backup up via TWRP before flashing lineage.

Probably most of you know already about it... I have recently discovered

but for those do not know yet

There is an easter egg in Facebook Messenger that allow the activation of the night theme

NO ROOT is required

NO EXTRA apps installation or other is required

Simply

1) send a message to someone including the half moon emoji

2) Close completely messenger (better using the task bar)

3) Restart messenger and open settings (press on your picture on the left top corner)

4) Activate the first option (DARK mode) of the list

This worked for me (I am on the latest firmware G965FXXU2CRLI) and the dark mode was kept after the last update to version 205.0.0.18.110

I hope this can help

There is no harm in trying but I do not know if it works for alla

please let know providing a feedback

not shure because I havn't had WM5 on my Prophet for 1 year. But the rom I'm running now Throttle III test rom witch is WM6.1 has gone from 100% to 70% in 24 hours (not heavy usage).

and also not all roms have the same apps inside so there is realy no way to tell if it's more heavy then wm5.

the answer would be yes and no to that question.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] livemordor:
This is not as question, but as discussion about our phone official support. And yes Mi A1 won't get Android Q:crying: According to Google answer Pixel/Android One phone receive at least 18 month for OS upgrade support. And as today (March 2019) it's already passed. It's about OS upgrades. Now about security updates. According to Google in past the Android One should have at least 3 years security updates support. But on October 2018 Google gave an official mandate about taking 2 years of security updates for popular Android phones (later in December 2018 Google change rules for Android One as well to 2 years). But since Xiaomi doesn't really care about Mi A1, it shows that the end of support is near (maybe 1 or 2 months).

Time to move to a custom ROM
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] punktnet:
At least, means it will get no less than 18 months new OS releases.

On the other side, i think it will sure get the new ''whatever-iteration-may-have'' Q version of android because there will be no major difference in OS and will be easy enough for developers to adapt.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] livemordor:
Not sure for it. 18 months has passed just now. I don't have any hopes for xiaomi to make new update, just because they already showed how much quality they put in upgrate of phone (Android pie for exp.) Making android Q doesn't makes them any profit. And in their interest to get customers buy new devices.

Does anyone have a solid official confirmation from Xiaomi that they won't be continuing to support the Mi A1 in terms of major OS updates? I'm thinking about moving to a custom ROM but I want to ensure that there won't be any major official updates coming anymore.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] riccetto80:
you miss a lot, but not need per se a custom rom, is enough root + all the goodies will come with root and customization.

force doze, custom kernel, magisk modules, google camera and so on.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Never_Sm1le:
To others, there is a lot. But to me, there is only 1 thing: stock doesn't support Ex-fat sd cards, and the only kernel that offer true Ex-fat support is custom roms only. On stock 8.1 I can live with a Magisk module that support Exfat but 9.0 is the main reason I jumped ship.

[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Feriol:
I am happy to have gotten 2 major updates, previously at this price point we would have been lucky to get 1, so android 1 program has increased value with updates. I was hoping to get 3 years of security updates, so disappointed Google has changed the requirement, but perhaps Xiaomi will honour the expectations when the device was released.

Even at 2 years I would still have bought the phone, but annoyed if it's changed after purchase.

I currently use Stock unrooted Rom, the first phone I haven't at least rooted, but I am sure the community will keep the phone going for another couple of years at least.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] ltf_195:
I bough this phone on Nov 2017 (if note mistaken) and I'm quite satisfy with the update from Nougat to Pie. But if you buy the phone later than that you probably feel not enough update (because you only receive Oreo to Pie update) but I believe you have received price drop compare to the initial release.

I prefer stable rather than updated OS. This device is already more than 1 year and new android OS will optimize new hardware, smartphone hardware obsolete very fast compare to PC or other device. There's no other choice if you want to optimize your phone to the latest android OS except buying new phone. I like to stay to the stock rom (with Magisk of course) till the end just to get full experience of Android One. I'm not gonna denied that Android One is a bit mess up either from manufacture side and Google itself. I will probably buy Android One device again in the future (few years from now) and see how much Android One will improve.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] JockeSve:
Same here, first ever un-touched stock. I'm still satisfied with this mid-low budget phone and that the OS is (pretty) free from "customization".

It is (was) a good bang for the buck when bought in Nov. -17 and still does it's job.

Features like GCam and similar were never promised or supported so that wasn't an issue for me nor a reason to root...

Hello, I have installed several versions of PACEficator on my watch without problems.

But, i can't install "2.0.66.1 ROM v2.1".

I think this comes from the last update of windows 10 "Windows 10 May 2019 Update ".

The problem is that when I start the installation of PACEficator, the terminal stay at "CONNECT YOUR WATCH TO BEGIN".

I restarted the PC, reinstalled the ADB drivers, changed USB port...

When I ask "adb devices", the terminal shows me my watch.

Would anybody have a solution?
