MI A2 bricked when installed ISLAND app (Work Profile) After April 20 Security Update

i just installed security update this morning and the installed and used island app (early access) which activated my work profile. it was good to use then i tried to call number but i couldnt be able to. it might be because of i was in work profile but i thought its because i recently changed the sim card so i restarted the phone and this is what it shows.

After updating to this patch, speaker mode is not working on phone calls for me. Even on whatsapp.

Every patch is causing more problems. I can't trust this stupid company anymore. Must going to change my phone after the lockdown.

Is there a patched boot available? :)
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Aerobatic:
Boot images of 10 became bigger than of 9, and cannot be compressed in an archive (except for multi-volume .rar) uploadable to local xda repository.

Anyway, it is better to patch stock boot image with currently installed MagiskManager in phone thus storing copy of stock boot image for "uninstalling" Magisk.

Instructions on how to pull current stock boot image from updated phone can be found in "Example 2" of https://xdaforums.com/mi-a2/development/recovery-mi-a2-jasminesprout-t3941096

[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] vesasmile:
After few days theese are the conclusion:

- no more caller echo problem

- google keyboar still hawe some lag

- settings sugestions are gone but only after clear cache thru all apps / settings suggestions (didnt comeback after 3 days yet)

- phone is faster (specialy multitasking switch)

No other bugs found like on other users phones here

Conclusion its safe to upgrade at least my opinion.

Answered in the previous page: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=82329543&postcount=24 .

I 've uploaded stock and patched boot images for 11.0.6.0 ((2020, March,https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=82166125&postcount=58) as multi-volume .RAR, and was surprised to learn that most people do not understand what "multi-volume archive" is, judging on the following

File Type: rar	stock_boot_v11.0.6.0_jasmine.part01.rar - (8.00 MB, 50 views)
File Type: rar	stock_boot_v11.0.6.0_jasmine.part02.rar - (8.00 MB, 42 views)
File Type: rar	stock_boot_v11.0.6.0_jasmine.part03.rar - (5.37 MB, 34 views)

Note that 1st part was downloaded 50 times, while 3rd - 34 times. So I decided not to upload images for 11.0.8.0 to keep frustration level low.

[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] genti.b:
Used the update for 2-3 days but decided to change. The phone lagged like crazy, settings sugestions bug still there, its not worth my time.

Flash a custom rom guys, the stock one sucks big time. Been using latest Derpfest for a couple of days now, very cool. LineageOS, Havoc, AICP and EvoX all very good choices as well.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] alexdspt:
What about the safetynet? No fix has been found yet, right? I use banking apps on a daily basis and still haven't installed a custom rom not only because can't find a simple enough method/tutorial to install it but also because of banking apps.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] genti.b:
Just to test I installed the Barclays US app and it opened. Even tried my local bank app which I use dialy, no problems there as well. Installed magisk manager to test the cts profile, ok there as well. This leads me to believe that everything ahould work.

As for a simple method to install roms you can find alot here on XDA, but probably the best one is this:

https://xdaforums.com/mi-a2/how-to/guide-how-to-flash-custom-roms-stuff-t3876375.

My experience with this latest update was great. My phone was very slow, laggy when changing apps and freezing on IO (apps updates, big size file creation or deletion). Now it's working fine.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] arnii5:
So I updated because the comments mostly seemed good and I also really wanted the fix for the echo others are hearing whenever I'm calling.

Turns out I have a new issue now. With the sound...

I listened to some music while cycling and then turned of my bluetooth headphones. Only to realize all sound was gone after that moment. No GPS instructions anymore, no sound from videos on facebook/instagram, no voice chats that actually output sound. I even received a call and I was not able to hear anything. Apparently the other person also couldn't hear me?

It's happened twice to me now. The worst time being the first, when I didn't notice it at first. Went to sleep only to not understand how I wouldn't have heard my alarm clock, now I know it was probably this bug since the whole day it had no sound either. Only restarting the phone works. Probably until the next bluetooth headphones connection?

My phone is at the stage where a notification appeared "to finish update restart your device". Is there a way to abort the update at this point ?
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] BtB:
A few options:

* Drop phone in deep water (deep enough that you can't get it back)

* Smash phone between 2 bricks

* Cook phone in oven at max heat for 1h

* any other funny idea where phone will die. Dead phones don't upgrade...

More seriously, if you never reboot it'll probably stay like that. If you're an an advanced user, you can play with slot A/slot B probably... but you'd better know what you're doing.

[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Tianhe:
For people experiencing wifi issues, bluetooth error etc. there are two options :

1) Factory reset or

2) You could flash the persist partition you had backed up through TWRP before updating to the current ROM. In some cases, flashing the earlier vendor backup is also required.

Be aware that these are hacks and not guaranteed to correct the errors, it may do nothing or even aggravate the situation.

---------- Post added at 09:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:48 AM ----------

You could try clearing the data of the updated app before rebooting but no guarantees
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] kalda01:
What app ?
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Tianhe:
Sorry, auto-corrected during typing. It should be the Updater app.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] HereYouGo123:
Just clear Google Play Services Data, then search for the update again and immediately stop the download.

Should be fine then.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] BtB:
Getting in the good old debate again, clearing data of Google Play Services may have side effects... this is not recommended. I don't have time right now to lookup articles explaining the issues you can get in, but from the top of my head you can get some Google Services "broken" for some time until things get in sync again... so up to you to do it or not.

Settings, wifi, select the connected network, frequency
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] HRSE:
i don't think checking the frequency can reveal if the connected network is N or AC, because wifi N has 5GHz frequency also https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_WLAN_channels#5_GHz_or_5.8_GHz_(802.11a/h/j/n/ac/ax)
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] C4SCA:
well never connected to a 5ghz wifi under N...

what about using Wifi Analyzer app? you check the channel and channel bandwidth as well as your link speed (although that is also available in settings if you expand by clicking advanced).

that should nail down the question
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] HRSE:
actually my dinosaur laptop is able to connect to 5GHz WiFi N network as in the attached screenshot

I've attached the screenshot of the WiFi analyzer app on my phone, but I can't tell the difference between my WiFi N laptop and my A2
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] C4SCA:
Mi a2 has a link speed of 433mbps since it's 1x1 setup, if it was a 2x2 it would be 866mbps (with maximum signal strenght obviously).

The next thing would be to verify the link speed on your laptop, you can check it in control panel, under properties for your network card

Im no wifi guru, but i think to achieve 433mbps on a single link it requires ac, else its going to be 150 if im not mistaken
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] C4SCA:
Well it seems im right, 5ghz N 1x1 is 150mbps, 5 ghz AC is 433mbps.

This image shows you a 3x3 setup, so just divide by 3
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] HRSE:
thanks [MENTION=4623639]C4SCA[/MENTION] , probably that's the way to check for N/AC connection until Android decides to show the info in wifi properties

is there any phone out there that support 2x2 or 3x3 AC? EDIT: off topic, sorry
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] C4SCA:
You welcome!

Nonetheless i have a 500 down 100 up contract (desktop via ethernet 520+, 110+; love you Vodafone PT?).

On Pie the Mi A2 would manage 300+ over wifi, which is expected since the theoretical maximum is 433.

Now on Q im stuck to 200ish and the phone lags a ton during the speedtest... It seems that the bottleneck is elsewhere cpu, IO maybe???
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] HRSE:
but who needs 200 or 300 or 433Mbps on the phone? I read somewhere that 25Mbps is already good for 4K video streaming. For me, I don't mind using a slower speed to increase the battery life.

Btw, I hear that 5G is coming, who would need that? is 4G not (burning the battery)fast enough?
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] C4SCA:
Updates... Restoring backup... Upload and download stuff from cloud... 25 maybe ok for keeping up a stream, but will make the first buffering take much longer

The thing is it worked better before. So for sure something is wrong.

If you are ok with 25mbps... You are lucky, I'm unfortunate to have better internet and now i can't go back ? it's like going from an hdd to an ssd

As for battery?? seems about the same as always, not better nor worse
