Hey all,
I'm in China and having some issues with my China Mobile branded Mi3. I don't think I have a fake from the vids and posts I've read, but here are some screenshots from CPUZ. The internal storage numbers appear to be bugged as the phone shows much more available space when connected to my laptop. Anyway, my main issues are not being able to update Android with the stock software (update button just takes me to home screen), and unable to flash the latest stable ROM via recovery (gets to 98% and says error applying update). I'd like to get updated so I can download Google Installer for my contacts and notes...it seems CM removed Mi Market for their own version. The ROM I tried was the latest stable TD version from the MIUI forums and I wasn't able to get much help there. Thanks for any advice.
Alright, giving this one last bump! Seems the xiaomi.eu forums are rather active in updating the China version of the Mi3 roms, but I can't seem to register there. Anyone mind taking a look at this thread and confirming that 4.6.27 is safe for the TD/Pisces Mi3 and that I just need to do a wipe through recovery before flashing that rom?

hi, my xiaomi mi5 32gb/3gb ram had android 6(no ideea about version) and unlocked bootloader, bought from china with european version of the rom, gapps installed.
everything worked perfectly, no drops in signal, nothing to complain.
i updated to MIUI 8 Android 7 official and after that the signal dissapeared, the only moment i had signal was when i put a new simcard in the phone, and only for 2 minutes.
Then i flashed with XiaoMiFlash : gemini_global_images_V8.2.2.0.NAAMIEB_20170407.0000.00_7.0_global_95e92d22eb
-- the problem stays: no service/emergency calls only.
i have good 3G 3-4bars/4G sometimes, when it comes to signal in this location.
nothing helped.
flashing xiaomi-miui-hellas-7.0_gemini_V8_XTRV_7.4.20 with TWRP Recovery also didn't help my problem
Now i am with a phone with no signal, could you please give me some help to solve this?
i've seen a lot of people in this situation on forums, so a solution would be very good.
Perhaps the settings from the *#*#4636#*#* Hidden MENU, this way i would do it the way it is on a working phone.
Thanks, greetings. Dan
I had a Redmi 4x which when shipped had 8.2 MIUI version (Before some 3 months). That time I checked using Jio and VoLTE worked fine. Then, My mother was using it and now after certain auto updates it was on MIUI v8.5.4.0. I had ported her no to Jio (4G only network), and now VoLTE didn't work at all. I tried flashing Latest MM firmware. I even clean flashed MIUI9 Dev and even then VoLTE didn't work. Always IMS will not at all register (Checked via Phone info). I hence declared somehow Jio network block listed 4x (other countries models) but LTE used to work fine. Out of all hope, I tried Official RR with its own recommended FW and even then VoLTE was down..!! I even changed Device model (Redmi 4x to Redmi 4), still it was in vain. Even tried adding IMS in default AP. Some suggestion to Choose Home IMSI in SIM Toolkit will also not work because latest Jio SIM doesn't ship with SIM Toolkit option at all!!!
After full frustration and wasting one full day, I thought I should change the phone. But somehow suddenly it struck to try fastboot flash the oldest MIUI8 which device was booting initially. So after trying that, Voilaaaa! 1st time seeing VoLTE after long hours and late at night !!!
Somehow Now I flashed latest stable 8.5.4 MIUI and it also has VoLTE working. Even in custom ROMs VOLTE now is working. So yeah just to share my learning, to help people who are having tough time with VoLTE..! :highfive::highfive:

So I followed yr method & Yes i got my Volte back but now i'm stuck in Marshmallow and there's a bug with the screen auto rotate not functioning. I googled and found that many people who downgraded to MIUI 8 are facing this problem & there it was also written that wen they upgrade to MIUI 9 Nougat screen rotate functions are restored. So here's the thing me being from India need my Volte for Jio and after a long time finally got it to work...But if i upgrade to MIUI 9 Nougat i'm scared that i might lose my Volte again & have to start my previous process allover again starting with unlocking my bootloader as i have locked it while flashing it to MIUI 8. So my question to you is what did u mean when you said " Now I flashed latest stable 8.5.4 MIUI and it also has VoLTE working. " from here did u just did OTA update (coz i'm getting V8.5.2.0 MAMMIED Update via my updater app). Or did u use Fastboot flash to 8.5.4 MIUI .??
BTW I was thinking should i just download a update.zip of the latest stable global V9.2 Rom & flashed it via the Updater App using update package option.. skipping v8.5.2.0 & other minor Updates and just jump to the latest. Will i still have Volte working on my Phone if i update to MIUI 9.
I'm Confused.....Pliz Help
Thanks In Advance.

Hi., I unlocked bootloader and I used fastboot method to go back to prev version. Once the volte worked, MIUI9 also got VoLTE working. So try clean flashing latest MiUi and VoLTE would still work...

By clean flashing do u mean fastboot method or update.zip recovery method.....
U see I'm confused as there are many forms of flashing so it fastboot method with miflash right!!.
Ok I will try to download this fastboot stable rom for miui 9.... let's see how it goes.
Thanks a lot...
Damn this phone really is high maintenance...

So I tried and guess what it didn't work. Volte is confirmed to be working only in marshmallow miui8 and as we try to jump to nougat miui9 volte just doesn't work. So i flashed back to marshmallow and then did ota update ( minor 350mb update) which is still Android 6 and volte still works now I get ota update for miui 9 but I'm not willing to jump the gun anymore......
Maybe if I do ota update to miui9 after getting volte maybe it could miraculously get it's volte back but having flashed the phone multiple times and since I need to use this phone I'm gonna stop here so we'll never know if volte is ever gonna work in miui9 via ota...
Btw even if I got volte back the gyro and screen rotation is not working both in the old marshmallow and in the recently updated ota marshmallow. So playing some gyro games and having the gallery to open pics in auto rotate is out of the question.
I even tried flashing persist.img via both fastboot and miflash method & while it didn't allow me to erase and write the persist.img even though my bootloader is unlocked in fastboot method. I did managed to flash it via miflash tool after editing some .bat files via notepad++ so that I only flash the persist.img and not the whole rom.
There's a whole tutorial about this too on Google and guess what again this methods didn't do anything and I have both gyro and auto rotate not functioning.
It will function in miui 9 but in that version we'll know that volte doesn't work so....
My only conclusion is that without Xiaomi dev patching it out there's just no way this bug can be solved by simple flashing as in either form of the OS one ends up sacrificing one function or the other.
Btw thanks for replying, helping and hearing me out...
Really appreciate it.

This whole VoLTE concept more or less isnt as reliable as legacy 2g/3G calls. Even yesterday for some wierd reason, VoLTE in this phone didn't work. I swapped SIM to another VoLTE where it didn't work on it too. I just let it for half day after which it started working. There isn't one proper way when on rooted phones, to easily get VoLTE related log data, so that we can try fixing the rootcause. Anyways I'm glad somehow you are able to manage...
My Volte working with miui 9 stable roms
Pliz give detailed description.
I'm excited to hear about this.
Btw no offence but you are sure that yr device is Redmi 4X and not Redmi 4, right!!
try to change your location in additional setting from your system location to another location, ex: thailand, and then check your volte setting
Ok that thought never occurred to me but I will not go back to miui 9 for the time being but if I do in the future I will definitely apply this method to check the volte.
Thanks for sharing this idea
Is volte working for any of you in pie roms?
Not Working
I got my redmi 4x from china ;-; works on marshmallow and goes off in nougat (miui) , Custom ROM (all nougat roms works fine with volte) but no volte in Oreo as well as in Pie.. Maybe Locked Bands
Same for me.

Volte never worked for me on custom roms( oreo or pie). Currently on Arrow os (Pie). Tired everything but never got Volte working. It would be great relief for me if i would see volte sign on custom rom.

Format Data after rom flash ...
1. It wasnt an action of flash ing another rom,its the same rom,eu rom stable,just downgrade,so you just need to wipe cache and delvick,because if you format data you actually earrase all your phone

Eu rom is not that good, buggy like hell, and full of issues (just look over XDA mi 11 ultra issues and you'll see that all issues are EU rom related). one on a thread lost his screen, others notifications, others over heating, others incompatible applications. etc.
in order to install global rom, you'll have to keep your device unlocked at all times, and using MI flash tool and fastboot rom of a global rom, you can simply and easily flash it to your device (DO NOT LOCK BOOTLOADER, CHECK SETTINGS OF MI FLASH TOOL). pretty straight forward and there are threads in here explaining it, have a quick search.
Maybe you'll lose some of the camera functions (not commonly used, at least for me). but other than that, it is way more stable, way better, performance better, better memory management (which eu rom lacks, I don't care what others say, I care what I saw with my own eyes with latest stable eu version, and not for a day, for 2 and half weeks),
if you need assistance, let us know in here and you'll have a few (including me) will be happy to help you.
I've seen a bunch of people asking about getting the One Plus 7 Pro working on Visible Wireless network and thought I would share what has worked for me in case anyone is still looking for a solution.
Some specifics first, I have a OP 7 Pro, GM1917, that's the global version I think? YMMV
Currently running Derpfest 12, mainly because I like how android 12 looks and feels. Still looking for something better since devs haven't released an update since may.
What I have noticed is that OOS version 10.0.2 works with Visible Wireless out of the box, while later versions do not. Seems somewhere after that version that OOS updates broke Visible support.
I first noticed this because I bought the phone off swappa, wanting to upgrade from the crappy Visible Midnight I got to see if I get good service in my area. After installing a custom rom and then using MSM to reflash latest stock when something broke, Visible wasn't working. Which didn't make sense. It had worked before. right? So my thinking was that the original owner had owned the phone long enough to OTA from 10 to 11. Sure enough, downgrading to 10 and then using OTA to upgrade fixed the issue.

How to Unbrick Your OnePlus 7 Pro Device from Dead State
In this tutorial, we have listed detailed instructions to unbrick youer OnePlus 7 Pro and bring it back from a dead state, using the MSM Download Tool.
www.droidwin.com
OOS Stock 10.0.2 Unbrick Tool MSM thingy
Index of /list/Unbrick_Tools/OnePlus_7_Pro/Global_GM21AA/Q
OOS Stock OTA update to later version of 11

Download GApps, Roms, Kernels, Themes, Firmware, and more. Free file hosting for all Android developers.

So here's my process.
Enable unsigned drivers support for your PC, download and install qualcomm EDL driver.
Backup phone, of course.
Put phone in EDL mode. Run MSM tool with guacamole_21_O.22_191107_repack
OTA update from local file, OnePlus7ProOxygen_21.P.43_OTA_0430_all_2204061153_a32bd850d41a490c.zip (Might work with latest OTA zip, havent tried.)
That will give you OOS 11, almost latest (I think there's like one more update to stable from there, but I'm lazy) with working Visible support.
Alternatively, if you want to make sure that you get legit OOS and not have to rely on zips from the internet, just let OTA update you to latest like normal, or use Oxygen Updater app.
From there, do whatever. Install TWRP, ROM, Magisk, etc.
Keep the files around somewhere so that if something goes wrong, you have everything prepared to fix it on hand.
Enjoy
I've managed to get visible sim working on all A12 roms using a few methods. Downloading an app that adds APN settings if the rom doesn't let you. Then typing in all the apn settings from this reddit post:
https://www.reddit.com/r/Visible/comments/ehdeik
For dun apn type, I used DUN all capitalized and it seems to work fine.
Then this is the key step: swapping the sim card between the two sim slots and restarting the phone repeatedly until it properly recognizes the sim card. If that doesn't work then inserting a different random sim, in my case I inserted my old tmobile sim, then taking it out and putting back the visible sim and switching sim slots if needed.
I'm using a GM1915, tmobile version that's been permenantly unlocked thanks to an xda member called mobbdeep.
right, I'd seen that, but i only have an old tacfone sim that's no longer active. does the sim have to be active for it to work? also, doesn't that need to be done every time you reboot the phone? that seems kind of annoying lol. especially since I reboot my phone sometimes like 2-3 times a day when it refuses to lock onto band 66.

Any old sim should work, my tmobile sim isn't active but forces my phone to change bands. It's also just a one time thing.
