[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] bucciarolo:
Apologies for cryptic title. My Mi A1 has multiple issues and a patchy update history. I don't know how to narrow this down to a single, simple question. Hope someone can help to make sense of this.

History: Bought new with stock Android One, Oreo. Few months later updated to Android One, Pie (official update). This caused big problems with wifi (connections constantly dropped and VERY slow downloads). Thought about reverting to Oreo, but decided to change to Lineage (which at the time was Oreo). So I downgraded from Android One Pie to Lineage 15 (Oreo). Generally worked OK, but with 3 big problems:

1. No sound during phone calls (I can't hear them, they can't hear me). Found a workaround involving editing the build.prop file (sorry, can't post link), but fix is temporary and needs regular re-boots.

2. Fingerprint sensor not working (no options to set fingerprint).

3. Camera app lost functionality related to dual lens.

I subsequently updated from LOS 15 (Oreo) to LOS 16 (Pie). Issues still there.

I wonder if I have some missing/incompatible vendor firmware components, but I don't really understand how this works. If I download and install, say, a LOS rom, does it contain EVERYTHING my phone needs to work, or do I need to already have some proprietary bits somewhere on the phone?

Is my best bet to start afresh (clean slate) and if so what would you recommend? Any help/insight greatly appreciated!
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Tuandroidaldia:
Hey pal, the Android Pie Firmware has some kind of anti-roll back protection, so when you install a non-pie ROM such as LOS 15 using Pie Firmware you'll have that problems like no-fingerprint, no incall audio, etc. If you install an Oreo Firmware with an Oreo ROM, you'll have fingerprint but no IMEI/Signal (and other problems).

You have 2 options:

1) Update your firmware to the latest Pie version and install a ROM like Pixel Experience or HavocOS (both Pie) and you're set, IMEI, Signal, Audio and Fingerprints will be working OK.

2) Install the latest Pie compilation using MiFlash and leave it stock.

Greetings.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] bucciarolo:
Thanks for prompt reply! Can you spell something out for me please?

Regarding 1) I have already updated to LOS 16, which is Pie. Is that what you meant by "update your firmware to the latest pie"? Or do you mean a stock firmware? If the latter, then I could find a MIUI rom (from en.miui.com) but not Android One.

Regarding 2) Again, by "latest Pie compilation" do you mean the stock rom, like the MIUI mentioned above?

Thanks

[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nate4059:
i installed android 7 on a nook hd (7") and ran it for about 2.5 months. As soon as I installed it I could feel the battery area was warm to very warm. It continued to be like that for the 2 and a half months I had it on there.

With android 7, I would get about a day of use off a full charge. I could watch the battery % drop as soon as it was unplugged from the charger. I kept the wireless off and airplane mode enabled most of the time to try to get more life. I could get about 2 hours if surfing the web on wifi.

finally it started jumping the brightness to 100% and wouldn't let me adjust it downward (only happened on certain web pages - still worked fine for reading books, but I had to reboot and reset the brightness every time.

I uninstalled android 7 and went back to stock nook 2.2.1 and my problems vanished. Battery life is back, it took me about 2 hrs to download and reinstall 2.2.1 and I had the nook on and wireless enabled the whole time and the battery never got hot and battery is still at 97%. With android 7 I'd be in 60's by now if not 40's.

I liked being able to install Brave browser and a couple apps, but I hated the android 7 keyboard, and the whole thing was sluggish, so I'd wind up tapping and retapping and getting 2 or 3 extra tabs opened that I didn't really want...

I'm gonna run stock for a week or so and make sure everything is fine and then try CM11 and see if will run better.

I really like the nook for reading books I've got a Kindle oasis and I like the nook better. and the 9" hd+ is great for reading .pdf manuals while working on things without having to have a laptop around.

only wish there was a way to strip the google out of the Nook. android isn't an operating system, its a retailing app...

anybody got a version of android they like that isn't so hard on the battery and not so sluggish???

I'll hold off on updating cause I don't do much things on my phone that needs privacy anyway, but I doubt anyone would be able to still obtain root. Then again I don't really need root tbh. It'll just be nice once I upgrade so I can have a rooted dex station

the more i have lived without root, the more i realize that its just not that necessary anymore. It sucks that its suck a PITA and that the mfgs havent figured out a way to give us access to the stuff we want root for in the first place while protecting the vulnerable stuff at the same time. It cant be that crazy of a concept to put certain things in a protected shell and allow the other stuff to be less secured and give us all the good stuff of root without their panties being in a bunch about it.

May have a way to root.

Hello I was able to download vmos and in settings is option to turn on root. It's a phone emulator so it's a primative root but I was able to transfer everything to vmos and when I run root checker it says root is successful and I can run all the root apps. But I also have a question has anyone used this work around and would I be possible to flash anything this way? Or would the twrp through the app work like it would normally? But I gained root this way without unlocking bootloader. Could possibly be a way to somehow use this backdoor to gain the real root. But so far everything works how it should. I'll keep everyone posted on happens when I try to flash somthing through twrp in vmos.

Hi all,

I want to have my PC and PPC automatically sync with each other and update each other when connected.

So whatever changes I make on the PPC, it will automatically sync and save onto the PC copy. And whatever I do on that copy, when I sync the two together, it will automatically update to the PPC.

This way, I can always continue where I left off from regardless where I'm at.

Well, I know it will back up my files from my PDA to my computer and everytime I connect it, it'll backup any changes on the PDA to my computer, but can it work the other way around?

When I connect them together and I've made no changes on the PDA, but changes on the computer, will it transfer from computer to PDA?

So, say I made a few changes on some files on the PDA, and some changes on the computer on something else. Will it know to back up the changes on the PDA to the computer and the changes on the computer to the PDA correctly?

If this is the case, then when I select to back up 'files' on ActiveSync, does it back up my .xml files also?

[Xiaomi Redmi 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Che0063:
There is confusion over which recoveries to install for Redmi 6 (cereus).

Failure to install the correct TWRP will result in a hard brick with no chance of restoring the device without an authorised account or going to a Mi Service Centre.

If you are currently on the MIUI Oreo ROM:

You may ONLY use TWRP 3.3.0 OR 3.2.3-0 OR 3.2.3-1

The recovery by either TWRP or LR.Team is both ok.

If you are on the PIE rom:

You MUST use TWRP 3.3.1 or OrangeFox Recovery. R10.0-2 nocrypt Pie is confirmed to be working by me.

To root MIUI pie, follow the instructions in this post from 4PDA. This is because you will be unable to decrypt data.

You need to create an account to download the patched boot.img. You can either create one yourself or ask me or someone else to PM you with the boot.img. I will not attach it to this thread because it is not my work. The files have now been attached. See post below.

All credits go towards the respective recovery authors and 4pda

I did something wrong just don't know what

I tried with OrangeFox and when rebooted in recovery the phone would not turn on and just vibrates.

I was lucky because I just needed to open and remove the battery to get the phone back up.
[Xiaomi Redmi 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] snoerme:
So just to get it right (please correct me if i'm wrong):

Starting from unlocked MIUI stock with android 8.1 base:

0) Download patched boot image from OP

1)Download TWRP 3.3.0 OR 3.2.3-0 OR 3.2.3-1

2)Download Magisk 19.3 Stable (would the latest stable also work https://xdaforums.com/apps/magisk/official-magisk-v7-universal-systemless-t3473445?)

3)Download official Pie Rom: http://bigota.d.miui.com/V10.4.4.0.PCGMIXM/miui_HM6Global_V10.4.4.0.PCGMIXM_99304098f7_9.0.zip

4)Enter Fastboot -> Flash TWRP

5)Enter TWRP -> Flash the Pie Rom -> Flash patched boot.img -> flash Magisk

6)Boot into system -> Leave the device alone for 2-3 minutes and install Magisk Manager

7)Download -> TWRP 3.3.1 or OrangeFox Recovery. R10.0-2

8)Enter Fastboot -> Flash TWRP/OrangeFox

would this be the correct procedure?

cheers
[Xiaomi Redmi 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Che0063:
?????????????????????

Why don't you skip steps 1-3 and just use XiaoMi Flash to install 10.4.4.0 via Fastboot by 'saving user data', then follow the instructions here? XiaoMiFlash will overwrite your recovery with the default so there is no risk of a brick. Then Flash TWRP Pie, flash boot img, flash magisk.

As I have said, you will brick your device. If you have TWRP Oreo, and then you install MIUI Pie, you will brick your device. You are doing EXACTLY what I told you not to do!
[Xiaomi Redmi 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] snoerme:
It didn't come out as clearly as you think. maybe it's my own deficiency.

btw whenever i flashed any update via TWRP the recovery got replaced by stock recovery as well.

(I don't tell this to call into question that your suggested way of doing was the most safe way.)

Is XiaoMi Flash available for linux as well?

edit: do you know if the latest magisk stable 20.0 would also work?
[Xiaomi Redmi 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Che0063:
I'm not sure - I have never flashed any MIUI ROM in TWRP. It seems normal though - the updaterscript probably tells TWRP to overwrite itself.
