Initial bug report

1) On pop up windows, the ok symbol to close or acknowledge is missing. However, it works if you click on that right upper corner.

2) The Symbol software keyboard is a remnant unintentional left behind. This could be removed though with SKtools.

3) It is not possible to select the chinese handwriting or resco keyboard.

4) The power saving feature works strangely. If the device is turned off, then when coming back, the backlight has a mind of its own and would go to the dimmest level. If you use wktask to try making it brighter, it would not become brighter. You have to go into start/setting/system/backlight to do it.

5) Setting for tilt sensor and touchflo are broken. There should be a facility to disable both of these especially the auto-rotate which is really really annoying. I'm going nuts over this stupid feature. Whoever invent such a thing! Blame it on iphone for the stupid idea, which is good only for demo but completely nonsensical in practicality. (sorry I have to let out steam here). Just assign rotate screen into a hardware button is the most sensible way to go IMO.

6) Difficulties switching software keyboard. I can do it for Tengo and A4, but not to Resco.

7) Sprite backup is unable to do backup on this ROM.

8) ALso noticed that the safe reset feature of iLauncher does not work now.

9) In the start/system/clear storage (hard reset) screen, there is no button to proceed after the password 1234 is entered. No big deal. One can pull down volume and poke into the reset hole to do the same thing.

This version is slower than the first version and locks up more too after all my applications have been installed. May have packed too much stuffs like Gsensor applications into it causing conflicts and problems. I think I like his first version more. I'm going back to the previous one. ....Unless I can find out how to disable the Gsensor. Perhaps that's the cause of most of the problem...

ok so i tried some more to make it wwe and no luck, i think we need someone better then myself, which shouldn't be to hard :P, in the mean time i am going to tweak my rom tomorrow for a 9:00pm release EST. there is not a lot of big changes just making it a little liter and some software changes and added an option so you can use wimp with your own settings even if hard reset occurs ;)
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] eaglesteve:
Looking forward to trying out that version. It's still the ultra lite I hope. Forget the HTC TouchFLO. I now realise that it is not as good as FTouchSL. But would be nice if you have the new Contact application.

Cheers.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] Sogarth:
To do what you're referring to as "permanent removal" requires building your own ROM (or at least modifying an existing one), since those files are stored in "read-only" memory. One of the reasons everybody and his brother/mother/dog/<other> tends to make their own ROM that matches his/her/its needs.

If you're willing to just run a registry modification yourself, this should work:

HKLM\Services\HTCSENSOR\Flags = dword:4

It should be something like this:

HKLM\System\StorageManager\Profiles\TRUEFFS_DOC1\MountHidden = dword:1

Actually, it's not GSensor. GSensor's still somewhat useful, if you want VueFlo to work. You want to disable HKLM\Services\HTCSENSOR (or it might be HKLM\Services\HTCSENSORORIENT). I'd be able to tell you accurately if it wasn't such a pita to download this ROM. :(

And, you can set a service to manual by tapping and holding on the service name. It does the same as the registry entry I pointed out above (Flags = dword:4).
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] eaglesteve:
I do not want vueflo at all. It is completely useful feature from my perspective, since we're using finger to move the webpages, not with tilt. Even in the old day before finger flicking was in fashion, I never used it.

So, if I do NOT want vueflo to exist in any form or shape, what's the registry changes I should make?

BTW, I'm back to version 1 of mutou's ROM. My my my, it is a rocket and version 2 is only a bicycle!!! I'd say that with all applications fully installed on version 1, it is still way way way faster than fresh without application in version 2. I'm more convinced than ever that the best ROM is an ultra lite one.

Version 1 seems a lot more bug free than version 1. Funny how things turn out.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] Sogarth:
You're probably not interested, but just in case anybody else cares: it does look like it's possible to manipulate HTC TouchFLO to handle different applications separately. I need to kick it around a little more, and until somebody is able to create a better interface, it requires requires registry hacking and some... different tools, but I believe it should be possible to have fine-grained control of TouchFLO.

Out of curiosity, what applications does TouchFLO not support?
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] eaglesteve:
Would have to reinstall back version 2 to find out.

With Resco File explorer, they can coexist only if we turn off the scrolling in Resco. However, by doing so, we will also give up the ability to have alphabet scrollbar on the right. I want to retain that alphabet scroll bar. When I reinstall my program from my program directory in microdrive for example, there are more than 100 entries. I want to be able to touch the right alphabet to quickly get there rather than laboriously finger scroll my way down. So Resco is one.

When I discovered that yesterday, I immediately realised that I would be better off using FtouchSL. That decision also deprived me the chance to discover in details what other application is having problem with HTC TouchFlo.

But since you're working on this, 'm going to reflash back version 2 shortly. The only problem is that I would have to install all my applications one by one (I tried doing a backup today before switching back to version 1, but this ROM does not let me. I noticed that the screen orientation was flip flopping between portraits and landscape, but not sure if this is one of the reason why backup was not possible by Sprite) as I do not have a backup to restore on. Anyway, give me some time, I'll give you a well researched answer to your question.

Cheers.

[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] irus:
I could not agree with you more. when ap4 first came out i thought it would be cool to have auto rotate, but then i started thinking about it and i thought to myself i never use portrait mode so why would i need it and htc touchflo does not use kinetic scrolling like ftouchsl so i hate it and would not use it.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] Montecristo:
Irus, do you're going to hang your new rom today? I made a hard reset and I want to know whether or not I hope ...:p
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] Montecristo:
I do not know. If you remove all plugins today if it works ...
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] Sogarth:
Wait, wait, wait! I'm doing a bit of research, and I'll probably have a workaround, but I'm not intending on Fixing The Problem. It's good to have a list of what doesn't work, though, so that I can see how the update compares.

In regards to this comment, though:

Emphasis mine.

I'm pretty sure I saw new entries for Pocket Word and Pocket Excel, so I believe those should work now. I can check when I get home. I imagine that if those work, the workarounds implemented for those applications could work for others as well.

And a quick note on this, since I'm confused:

I'm not clear on this, since TouchFLO doesn't normally make any sounds for me. Yes, it's possible to turn on sounds for scrolling, but it doesn't click or clack for regular taps....

And as a side comment,

I'll admit I haven't fully gotten a chance to use the auto-rotation on a daily basis (since my Athena's been in a quasi-broken, development state for the past several weeks), but I think it has promise - but that's only because I do like being able to use both landscape and portrait modes.

Kinetic scrolling might be nifty, but I wonder how much of the desire for that's been brought about by iPhone envy? ;)
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] eaglesteve:
What "entries" are you talking about? Some modification to enhance TouchFLO?

TouchFlo will produce sound for regular touch if your sound setting says you want it. Of course you must first go to start/setting/personal/sound to tick the option.

I use portrait 90 percent of the time, but I don't want it to be automated.

Kinetic scrolling is of course more natural in feel especially when I want it to go fast.

[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] Twomby:
Hi,

Recently purchased a Mi 9 Global version, got the OTA update to MIUI 11, and everything was well. It is a superb phone, but I like to have root on my phones (mostly for Adblocking and System2, better control overall). I tried to install TWRP (custom version for Mi9) because I wanted to install Magisk/Root or try a different rom eventually. Anyway... I made a huge mistake. After trying to reboot, I noticed things had gone wrong, and was stuck in a boot loop. I guess I panicked and tried to flash the phone back to the latest global MIUI rom (Version 11, Android 10, from official site), using the Xiaomi Flash App but I did not uncheck the "clean and lock bootloader" checkbox on the bottom right of the app, which is somehow enabled by default. The flash failed at that time, for unknown reason, but it seems like it succeeded in locking my bootloader, with an empty partition, except for fastboot access and Mi Recovery module. I have to admit I've always been pretty lucky with all my previous flashes on other devices, and I guess I got a little careless. That was pretty stupid of me, in retrospect.

Since then, I am stuck in either Mi Recovery or Fastboot, and it seems that my originally Global Mi 9 with unlock bootloader has now a locked bootloader. Any attempt at either using the Xiaomi Flash utility gives me an error message ("Erase boot error"), and if I boot into Fastboot and try to flash TWRP, I get the "Remote:Erase is not allowed in Lock State" error.

From what I understand, my options are pretty limited now. The phone is still powered on, stuck in Recovery mode and rebooting every 5 or 10 minutes by itself (probably a way to avoid screen burn-in?), but I can't seem to be able to shut it down in anyway, as there are no fastboot commands to send a shutdown signal. And no matter what button combination I press, the phone always ends up rebooting.

I tried the Xiaomi Unlocker utility, but it needs the phone to be out of recovery to check the credentials binding the phone to my account. All data on the phone has been wiped already, so that's not an option. Two options I have seen :

1. Open the battery cover (required a heat gun and risky), to short some pins and try to flash while there is a short to circumvent the security. I'm not that brave yet, and since the phone is still running and has probably about 80% battery, I don't want to use a heat gun on the device.

2. Shady stuff involving paying 30 or 40 Euros to a random guy who can somehow make everything work magically by remotely logging in on my computer via Teamviewer (Not happening in a million years).

I'm wondering if there is an alternative, other than bringing the device to an official Xiaomi store (I'm in Bangkok and they do have one official shop at Fortune Town), but even then, I don't know if they'll just tell me I got myself an expensive paperweight.

Any help/insight regarding this issue would be much, much appreciated!

Have you tried to press and hold power+vol down when your device reboots? Just before it turns on.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] Twomby:
Every possible combination on reboot will either bring me to Fastboot or Mi Recovery. I have wiped the data partition, there is no OS on the phone as of now.

To enter fastboot mode, long press the volume down key and the power key. Then unlock bootloader with Xiaomi app.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] Twomby:
I have managed to enter fastboot mode, as described in my initial post. The problem is that when I try to flash, I get the following error: "Flashing not allowed in lock state".
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] g_seva:
Yep, but it has unlock option in the normal mode and it use scripts made by tool developer, so it worth to try.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] Twomby:
From what I understand, the "normal mode" needs the tool to be able to access the OS while it's running. I don't have an OS. I will give it a shot tomorrow (3 AM here, exhausted, and don't want to boot into Windows again!), but my hopes are not so high. Anyway, thanks for the help, much appreciated!

Unfortunately, this is not true. I have downloaded an old version of Mi Unlock (2.2.406.5), which is supposed to work with Fastboot mode.

[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Questions & Answers] @Chirper:
I've tried installing PixelExperience 10 on my phone (which is unlocked and with a custom recovery) and first it throw me Error 7, but that was because I hadn't flash the firmware and vendor .zips before PixelExperience, but even flashing that, the device bootloops until a certain point and then it boot back to recovery.

I've tried with dotOS, LineageOS, even MIUI, multiple versions of it, and non of it are working. The device just bootloops with everything.

Fastboot is accesible, recovery is accesible. I'm using OrangeFox Version R10.0_2, but I originally installed TWRP and I had the same problem.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Questions & Answers] RunNgun42:
Have you tried flashing TWRP, then using TWRP recovery environment to wipe EVERTHING, then use adb to push lineageOS (since you will have wiped internal data and lost your rom file)
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Questions & Answers] @Chirper:
OrangeFox lets me wipe the same partitions (even Vendor, which TWRP doesn't let me).

I'm not sure if I can install Lineage OS thru adb because it asks for MIUI firmware to be installed. If I wipe everything, I loose the firmware.

Althought, I haven't wiped the internal storage in I while, since I have all the roms and zips, there. I'll try with that.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Questions & Answers] bedson87:
Make "Format Data" - Yes after that wipe data, system, cache and vendor. Copy zips to storage and dont sideload.

Flash fw 9.6.27, los17 and opengapps. Must work.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Questions & Answers] RunNgun42:
The way these roms work you basically have to have previously installed a corresponding version of MIUI first. For instance, if you want to install los16 then you must have previously been running MIUI 10. If you want to install los17 then you need to install MIUI 11 first. I guess Xiaomi does some weird stuff to the internal storage between flashes. If you're stuck in a bootloop the easiest thing to do is use the official MiFlash tool to flash the ROM version of your choice. MiFlash uses fastboot rom files. This site has the best catalog of roms
