Few issues with Lineage 14.1 - Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers

Hi,
I'm new with Lineage and so far I'm very satisfied.
But there are few issues that realy bugged me and I hope someone here can help me with them.
(I installed Lineage for Xiaomi mi5 with gapps - Nano)
1. Is there a way to add to the tile (the options on the top bar) a button like all of the phones, so I can switch between silent mode and ring mode? How?
(I already know about the option from the power button)
2. On the recorder app, after I record few records, how can I see the list of them?
3. About calendar widget, is there a way so I can set the widget to my main screen with month view? How? (currently its only on task/day view)
4. On Android (AOSP) keybord that came with this Rom, can I set that on the top of the keyboard will be numbers instead of characters? How?
Thanks in advanced...

Hi Guys,
I have a question about the following ROM
[ROM][4.1.1] [2.0.0 Rev1] Remics-JB (Team RemICS) *V2 IS ONLINE
Really happy with the performance, i just upgraded from RemICS-UX v1.3.1 and one amzing feature that I can't seem to activate is the notification lights on the bottom two buttons, the lights switch on when i have a missed call, sms, etc... any suggestions?
The second thing is a lot of people are having trouble to have multipule langauges ( such as Arabic) to display, I found the following thread as a suitable solution.

LED notification won't work. If you want BLN (I think that's what you mean) flash the Devil Kernel! See XYUnknown's post

Because of the lack of space, it may be necessary to move some apps to the external sd card. On reboot, the icons will turn into green android men in the apps list and disappear from the home screen and bottom drawer.
The tw launcher is somewhat 'flaky', so it will probably be better to download Nova launcher (or Apex or Go...). I've just installed Nova launcher because tw took a nasty turn for the worse this morning. Everything is now fine - though the ui is a little strange at first. One advantage is that Nova presents the app list in alphabetical order - not higgledy piggledy. The settings too can be saved prior to any flashing.

[Q] Keeping some info after flashing

Hey, I just got into flashing roms and such... just moved from CM 10 stable to beast 4.2.1 and everything went great except from settings that got missing which are mainly 3:
1. I joined contacts together with their facebook profile in order to get their picture when calling them but when i flashed the new rom that was gone... any way of keeping it?
2. all my ringtones aren't synced anymore... now when i have someone who used to own a ringtone of his own i got no ringtone at all... same question
3. my entire launcher stayed the same but the widgets aren't working... any way of fixing that?
4. (different question) in the power widget in the notification drawer there was an option to change the time the screen takes to turn off, that option isn't available in the quick settings panel... is there other way to enable it? (besides getting the power widget again)
thanks!

1. You have to use HaxSync with the Jellybean work-around to sync Facebook contacts/pictures. There may be alternative apps available but this is just what I myself use.
2. Not sure what you are trying to ask. Just go into Sound settings or your music player and set a ring tone.
3. This is normal. I'm assuming they either look like white or black boxes? Just delete and reapply your widgets.
4. Not that I know of.

1. found a solution... restored my 4.1.2 contacts storage via titanium and it's working great.
2. What I mean is that when I set a custom ringtone and flash a new rom that ringtone isn't working anymore... (which makes me miss some calls...)
3. oh wellz
4. oh wellz using widgetsoid for that now...
New question (since i can't post in development)... In CM 10 I had Developer Settings in the settings menu... and on beast 4.2.1 i don't have them... is that normal? is there a fix for that?
thanks for you help

Question And FeedBack about Custom Stock Lollipop Lockscreen

Dear All,
I just published my first module on xPosed. Don't be hard with me if there are any trouble. However if you describe the bugs, I would be glad to solve it. I have done a few set of test on my Nexus 5 but it should works on any device with stock Android Lollipop. This module allows you to change the two shortcuts on the stock lockscreen.
You can use this thread if you have any question or feedback about the module.
PS: English is not my native language, please don't mind for the spelling & grammar mistakes.
UPDATE 12/03/2016:
A new module is available to do the same thing but on Marshmallow devices (HERE)
Changelog 2.1 :
-You can change the color of the ClockView, Icon Tint, ...
-You can resize the icons
Changelog 2.0 : (Due to deep changes, you may need to reinstall the app or reselect your shortcuts after update)
- You can now use « real android shortcuts » (like google maps route, voice recognition, inbox reminder,…)
- You can choose your icon directly from your gallery
- Improved some interface details (Better material design integration)
- Minor bug fixes.
Changelog 1.2 :
- Minor bug fixes.
- You can now activate or deactivate shortcuts
- Tablet support for the left shortcut (I do not have any tablet to test so I hope it works :\, just tell me if it’s not)
Changelog 1.1 :
- Improved some interface details and minor bug fixes.
- Bug about the camera preview when you launch a shortcut fixed
- You can now edit the text which appear when you hit a shortcut on the lockscreen
- You can now activate or deactivate the “natural white tint” of the icon shortcut on the lockscreen
-List of apps sort by alphabetical order
Works great on my HTC One M7 running CM12 and Xposed, thanks! Been looking for a way to do this.
Love how it changes the icons and makes them white. Have it set to whatsapp and chrome atm
Tried on my M7 too and it works
But I found that if I click on an icon instead of swiping the tip is in your language (I think..) like "balayer l'ecran vers la droite"

Thanks guys for feedback, I appreciate.
I know it is in french and I'm sorry about that. My first goal was to make a module as quickly as possible to change shortcuts on the lockscreen. However I work on an update which enable you to customize this text.
Works great on my m7 with gpe lollipop.
But would it be possible to add a option to choose a image or color instead of what can be seen on the attached pictures?
It's kinda odd to see the grey screen with a camera symbol while opening WhatsApp
Thanks alot, will definitely keep an eye on this!

Yeah I know that's really strange. OP can't you set it to be just like the left shortcut? The left shortcut (previously the phone shortcut) does not have this problem and it has a nice transition
I'm on it. I will try to publish an update before the end of the week-end
New update 1.1
Would you be able to add the ability to change the lockscreen wallpaper? There's no easy way to change just the wallpaper on the lockscreen, while having the main wallpaper be different.
Will be able to add a shortcut left from the tablet in the future?
Great job on this mod! I only want 1shortcut with the other shortcut set as NONE. Is there a way to do that? Thanks
It would be amazing if you could implement slim lock screen shortcuts :fingers-crossed:
Is it possible if you can make it able to change lockscreen clock as well?
Nice module, great work!!!
Would be nice if you can select a shortcut instead of an app, for example a shortcut to a tasker task.

Also +1
Currently my workaround is to set my launcher (nova) as app for the shortcuts, so that after unlocking, it will go straight to the homescreen. Not a perfect solution, because unlocking still takes longer because of the app starting process (which also seems to take longer with this module if I choose the contact app compared to the stock setting with the contact app) :/
Funny, it seems most people here want LESS from the lockscreen, while I want more.
I don't know exactly how you would do it with the current setup, but I would love something akin to the lock ring targets found in 4.x roms. I loved being able to launch right into 5 or 6 programs right from the lockscreen. I've tried so, so many third party ones but none of them have the same ease of use or functionality that the stock one employs while also being a seamless experience.
With that being said, I would obviously love if someone were able to get more targets (an idea that I had was to start to pull up and THEN have the targets appear above or something, but I don't know how feasible this is)

I don't have a problem with shortcuts on the lockscreen, I just have a problem with the way they are implemented in Lollipop. For unlocking you have to swipe up, but I usually swipe kind of diagonal from down left to up right (seems to be a habit from kitkat and prior). That works like 90% of the time. In 10% I accidentally open the dialer, which is very annoying, since it costs time.
Thats why I want to kill the dialer shortcut
Now that you mention it I had that problem when I started to use Lollipop with that. At this point it's mostly resolved but every now and again I do end up going straight into an app
If you are using pin or pattern lock, every time you need to swipe up first to input the unlock pattern, is there a way to default to input pattern? And swipe down if I want to go back to the lock screen? I wish Google made the shortcuts optional....

Best customisation / ROM

I just received my Xiaomi mi 5 64GB version with global ROM installed. The phone itself is great and I like many aspects of MIUI including its home screen, customisability, app lock, second space and the various MIUI apps.
However, I have many frustrations after coming from a stock android phone: I don't like: the design of the notification panel (particularly the centre location of the button to close all notifications), inability to close the currently using app without having to go to the home screen, Bluetooth stuttering and poor audio quality via headphones, difficulty in changing the lock screen picture using the Google wallpaper app.
I want to be able to fix the above issues whist still having the iOS like MIUI home screen. I want the home screen exactly like the MIUI os system launcher not the MIUI launcher you can download from the playstore. I also want to keep the same theme design I currently am using.
Is there a customisation or a ROM that will give me most of what I require.
Sorry for the very long post!
> inability to close the currently using app without having to go to the home screen
Not sure about this, could you elaborate more?
> poor audio quality via headphones
No idea why, but global ROM do suffers from this while China ROM is fine. I suggest installing Xiaomi.eu ROM as it's based on China ROM but still has multilanguage and play store pre-installed with 0 bloatware.
> difficulty in changing the lock screen picture using the Google wallpaper app
MIUI limitation, can't do much about it. Just remember to always change it from MIUI gallery app.

When I'm opening an app and tap the multitasking button I can't close the app I am using. I have to go to the home screen and then close the app. I have attached a screenshot.
Is there any way to move the cross in the notification panel to the right hand side. I have attached another screenshot. Thx for the reply!!!

I think that can be done from themes, so you just have to find the suitable one.

The app which I'm current using can't close - even when I swipe up. The other apps do close when I swipe up.
I cannot find a theme which allows me to move the cross in the navigation panel to the right. What I'm seeking is the position of the cross (which collapses all of the notifications) to be in a position to the right hand side, similar to stock android.
Is there a way to solve these problems without installing a custom ROM?

Question Blurred out buttons.

Hello, i have been having issues with my phone..the buttons are blurred on apps and it seems like a software issue. What could be the problem? Do i need an update? , If yes im already updated to miui global 12.5.15 any thoughts would be highly appreciated.
If you mean the home, back and recent apps buttons then there's a bug with some roms. Probably best off using a new launcher until it's fixed. I don't see any blurry buttons in your screenshots.
Check the first screenshot on spotify.. the play button isnt seen, the second screen shot on the the topic button that consists of "yes" and "no" also doesnt show..the snapchat screenshot i supposed to show the names of the chats but its blank/ white.
Ok I got you now. Maybe you have a 3rd party app installed that is drawing over the ui, or some icon pack. I'm using the same rom as you and don't have that issue.

Go to Settings > Display > More Dark Mode Options then toggle off the Apps that behave abnormally. For apps that are light by default, just manually switch them to dark mode or select the "Follow System" option.
this worked like a charm, thanks!
