[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] lastbutnotleast:
Hello everyone and thanks for all your time in advance.

My problem is, i think, pretty complexed. I searched each forum, did everything i could to find solution and failed.

Problem:

After MIUI 12 update i have this weird lags which, after diagnosis, seems like come from MIUI Launcher. Lags are everywhere but with every hours after 5th or 6th since restart/changing launcher to nova and back to miui launcher/changing dark mode to light mode and back, they're getting stronger and stronger.

I found few solutions but mostly they were connected to APP VAULT:

1. Unistall updates, clear data and cache

2. Turn on APP VAULT and remove everything from notifications, especially Video

3. Turn off APP VAULT

For many people it helped but sadly i'm not amongst them.

I tried to not to do factory default but 3 days ago i decied i don't have time to these lags. I did factory default and without BACKUP i installed most of my things in memory. It's not much because i have like 30GB of total space used (128GB version).

In the same day i did factory default i noticed lags after some time (~5th hours of usage). It started with laggy animations on closing SMS app (Textra or Google Messages) and spreaded like virus to everything else.

What's most important lags are only in situation when i use FULL SCREEN GESTURES. When i use on screen buttons i don't have any lags. They are also not present in other Launchers. The sad thing is i don't want to use buttons. I like gestures and i got used to them so changing back to buttons is not an option.

The fastest temporary solution to these lags (after factory default because before it didn't work) is change dark mode to light mode and stay that way or just use dark mode again. It helps just for few hours and lags come back, stronger every hour.

I think there are few solutions to my problem but i don't really like neither of them.

1. Downgrade MIUI to version 11 (not single lag was there nor on 10)

2. Change to miui.eu (debatable because it doesn't have to help)

3. Change to Custom ROM (least needed option because there are always something BAD about them)

4. Sell phone and buy anything else but Xiaomi

It's my 3rd Xiaomi device and first so powerful and so problematic. Redmi Note 4 served me well for 4 years, Redmi Note 3 Pro for 2 years. In my company i have many Xiaomi Devices and only Mediateks are pure trash. Snapdragon ones (mi9lite, redmi note 8 pro, redmi note 8t, mi11, redmi note 10 pro, redmi 4x, redmi note 4, redmi 9t) work as their owners want. No problems so far even on MIUI 12 and full screen gestures.

Can anyone recommend a decent external batter pack for on the go charging? I found this one below but it looks like the capacity is only ~2500 mah:

Thanks for helping!
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Accessories] mikealder:
http://www.expansys.com/d.aspx?i=166301 is 4400mAhr so its a bit better, I use one that is around 5400mAhr made by U2O http://www.gpsforless.co.uk/product_details.php?id=5490

which is good combination if used with the Athena - Mike
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Accessories] hardan:
Here you have two good battery packs, one with 9600 mAh battery and 5.2v/1.25A output and another with variable voltage output, USB, 8800 mAh and up to 1.5A continuous amperage.

The first cost 60$ plus s&h, you can find it here:

http://www.tang-shop.com/universal-external-battery-powerbox.html

The second cost 89.95$ plus s&h and is here:

http://www.tang-shop.com/universal-external-battery-3685.html

The second battery is more expensive but have two outputs, one USB and one variable from 3.5 to 20v. I have the first and the battery have very much capacity and you can make four X7500 charges.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Accessories] madbird:
im using the neofree since a few month, and can say it proofs what it promises. it loads the advantage full even when you use it (a thing a lot of car chargers dont do). first i use it for inline skateing tours where the advantage is used to track the way with gps and play music, it makes my device last the hole day (before i have to change battery at least once a day). meanwhile i wont leave the house without it. i bought also some adapters to charge all my devices with it when im away from home.

regards mad
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Accessories] x2h:
thanks for so many good suggestions! I've ordered the one that fits my needs. Thanks again!

ROMs for anonymity, does anyone have any indication or recommendation?

That does not have services from google, microsoft and other companies that steal your data, can anyone tell me if there really is any ROM in this type, of course it is open-souce, or would I have to create something from scratch?
[Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Graysters:
Hi All!

Could anyone with a Fire HD8 or HD10 on FireOS 5 or greater help me try and get hold of the free Lego Super Mario apk (latest version as of posting: 2.1.2), specifically from the Amazon app store?:

Amazon.co.uk

The reason I'm interested in getting hold of this specifically from the amazon app store is that there is an interesting situation where the version available from the amazon app store is apparently compatible with android 5.0 and up, whereas the version available from the google play store requires android 8.0...

My son has a Fire7 7th gen (austin) tablet that can only go as high as fireos/android 5, or android 7 if I install the CM14.1 ROM, hence I was hoping to try the version from the amazon app store.

I can't download it directly myself as it is *technically* not compatible with the Fire7, only the Fire8 despite it being on the same fireos version, hence it doesn't appear when I search for it. So, it might not work, but I was at least hoping to give it a try, as my son is hoping for the Lego Luigi set from the big red guy this year, and it needs the latest 2.x.x version of the app to work...

Any help very much appreciated

Cheers,

Graysters
[Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bryanx86:
Download it from here, apk mirror. https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/lego-system-as/lego-super-mario/
[Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Graysters:
Thanks for replying Bryanx86, however as mentioned, I'm after the version specificially from the Amazon app store which claims to work with Android version 5.0, whereas the play store versions (like the ones hosted at apk mirror and the like) seem to require version 8.0.

Yes. Some say not compatible but do open anyway.

My bank app doesn't open though. No error message either.

International Alpha version btw
[OPPO Find X3 Pro] brunolongo:
Thanks man. Maybe because the beta version. I hope so.
[OPPO Find X3 Pro] anasmhds:
how you got A12? my phone is global official and says no trial update
[OPPO Find X3 Pro] clairelara:
Then you should wait till you get updates for those apps and then it will be compatible with the OS and they run smoothly.
[OPPO Find X3 Pro] brunolongo:
Mine is chinese
[OPPO Find X3 Pro] ecomaki:
As from some others covered already, it depends on the app itself if its ready for Android 12. Would recommend to keep an eye on app updates
[OPPO Find X3 Pro] latino147:
I wonder if the problem is Android 12. Unless the app never gets updated they would surely already have adapted it for A12.

Especially big companies like my bank.

[Windows 11] brocnical:
Hi, your excellent program is almost unusable on Linux KDE X11 with HiDPI scaling. At 250% scaling everything is massive. I don't understand why this is the case as Qt5 usually handles scaling well automatically. I also have export PLASMA_USE_QT_SCALING=1 enabled if that makes a difference.
[Windows 11] jocala:
HiDPI - ArchWiki

wiki.archlinux.org

Thanks for the report. The link above has a section on QT that may help. Unfortunately, I don't have hardware to test this issue.
[Windows 11] brocnical:
I can work around this by launching using the command:

QT_SCALE_FACTOR=0.4 ./adbLink2

( since I am using 2.5x scaling, 0.4 is 1/2.5 )

Perhaps built with Qt4; or adbLink is unnecessarily applying a scale factor, and then Qt is scaling automatically in addition to this?
[Windows 11] jocala:
http://www.jocala.com/test.zip

Try this replacement binary.
[Windows 11] brocnical:
Thanks! that replacement scales well. All scaling works as it should. Even scrollbars are scaled properly (which they weren't with my workaround above)
[Windows 11] jocala:
Glad it's sorted out and thanks for bringing it to my attention! The fix will be included in the next release.
[Windows 11] C-Rooted:
I am having the same problem. I recently switched to KDE Plasma. Is that test binary available or maybe the next update could fix this.

Thanks brocnical for the workaround which isn't ideal but is workable.

I have used this app for years on several different platforms and this is the only time I have had an issue.

Thank you jocala for all your hard work!
[Windows 11] jocala:

Hi there, I'm struggling a bit with the installation of adbLink and also adbLink2 under windows 10.

Does anyone have some hints for me?

Just got this ultra thin matte hard case for the Pixel 6 Pro. I like super thin cases made by MNML Case and Peel, but they are expensive and not hard so they expand and become useless.

This AliExpress case snaps on and overs no protection from drops, but I like it, super thin and great feeling, not slippery.

My P6P is the Cloudy White and I got the transparent case. They have several different colors including Yellow and Blue. Super cheap and took 11 days to ship even though estimate was several months! I currently own the Google Case, Spigen Ultra Hybrid and now this one. I returned the Spigen, will keep the Google Case for when I travel, and use this AliExpress one for daily driver.
