emojis and something else - Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers

Hi. I've been using this rom for several days and with some apps (for example, instagram) I miss the emojis option on screen. Should I downgrade to 15.1? I don't want to, the rom works fine and the battery lasts a little more. Also, format cache/system/data caused mistakes while installing the rom, but using wipe data/cache/system made it perfectly. And one more thing, I've tried to change the sound of the incoming calls and messages, but Sounds (by Google, I guess) doesn't work properly. Any solution?

I've been an omnirom users for the good 6 month, and everything worked as expected with few glitches here and there however after version was bumped to 4.4.4 camera has been very unstable and keep crashing with "camera can't connect" and only reboot works this has been most inconvenientl... Tried to reflash, wipe, do the clean install tried different kernels... Same thing... Today phone rebooted automatically and got stuck on "Android is starting apps" without any success, tried to dirty reflash didn't help, had to do the Clean one...

I am experiencing issues with the camera as well. I am on 4.4.4-20140709-i777-nightly.zip and on first reboot, the camera was not taking pictures. When switching from photo to video, the resolution drops drastically. It took several restarts and now I can say it's taking pictures, but taking videos freezes the app, and other 3rd party video apps.

It can be a bit hit and miss, sadly. I use gapps provided by paranoid android, and the latest boeffla kernel (test branch).
How i usually install is this:
Rom
Gapps
Reboot and get set up
Back to recovery
Install kernel
Flash camera fix
And for good measure, wipe dalvik and cache.
Like i said though, it isnt a guaranteed fix u.u you can blame proprietary licences for that. Making lives difficult.

Thanks for your reply.
TWRP was already installed, I rooted, flashed Omni, flashed one modem, wifi didnt work, flashed another, that sorted it, flashed GAPPS, no camera, wiped everything, tried again, not working, wiped again, installed camera fix, not working, wiped again, not working, installed again, wiped again, etc, etc. Still not working
Edit : was on 2014-07-26, updated to 2014-07-28 and all working !!
Hello,
I have same problem with omni-4.4.4-20140730-i9300-NIGHTLY.zip, and other, older 4.4.3 versions !
I also have this problem on 4.4.4-20142728-i9305-nightly, and sometimes i take one photo then the camera app freezes. Tried the fix at http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/themes-apps/17-fixed-camera-app-lib-cm-aosp-roms-t2505973 i like the camera app much more from the fix fyi, this is making me considering changing rom.
And one other problem i have with this rom is that, every option that is enabled in the rom as default i have to disable it and the enable it again to make it work.
I have not changed the kernel or any other tweaks or anything, just flashed rom with a clean flash

[Q] Whatsapp is not working on Lollipop Custom ROMs

When ever i tried to login to my Whatsapp after typing number and when i press Ok the phone Automatically reboots.
I'm posting the screenshots if anyone can help me with it ? I'm kinda Beginner Developer, I've already checked the Build.prop, everything is fine and perfect in this ROM as it was fine in CyanogenMod. But whatsapp is causing issues , and i think a Smartphone without whatsapp could not be a Smartphone xD

Completely Wipe your phone.... wipe everything System,data,cache, Dalvik. And then flash the AICP rom and gapps of 5.1 its less buggy! Smooth and amazing... Didn't had any problem logging in to whatsapp.. I think you've flahshed something improper and the drivers or something else could've got messed up...

This happened with me a few times. Backup only the media files and Delete the WhatsApp folder in the internal storage and reinstall WhatsApp from playstore. For some reason when you restore the app and leave the WhatsApp folder it reboots the phone upon registration.

Apps disappearing after flashing custom roms

I've successfully flashed and tried out several custom roms for the HTC Mini One 2 (Nostromo, CarbonRom, Cyanogen 12, gapps flashed using both arms and aroma) and have encountered one problem repeatedly: After restoring several installed apps (whatsapp, a few games, a dictionary and a translation app) they are all visible and working after the reboot. However, after rebooting again they all disappear from the trebuchet app list (which I really like, btw) along with a number of other apps. In addition, apps like google play force close the moment I open them.
Any ideas about how to rectify this problem?
PS: Quick props to Soenisti. I really like the look and feel of the Nostromo rom. It feels like the fastest of the roms I've tried so far.

Thanks for the quick reply. Do that religiously after flashing. Tried that and it didn't seem to work. Hmmm... might try it again when I have the phone.

[ROM] Chinese Marshmallow ROM for ZTE Axon Elite (A2016) international

I was able to install Chinese ZTE Axon Elite (A2015) Marshmallow rom to my international version of Axon Elite (A2016). Wifi, mobile data network and calling works. All Google apps are working too, Chinese rom has google services installed but those are needed to be activated by allowing them run in a background. Only Chinese and English languages available, but system is working in your local language after installing More Locale 2 from Google Play.
This ROM is not rooted, so you need to install Super User in TWRP right after installing this ROM.

Changes:
Added modem files (modem.b00-modem.b22, modem.mdt) from international B06 NON-HLOS.bin.
Minor build.prop changes (e.g. changed English as default language).
Removed stock recovery.
Added Google Play, Google Contact sync, Google Calendar sync, Google Gmail, Google Exchange sync, Google Phone, More Locale 2.
Removed all possible Chinese ZTE bloatware (over 200MB). I had to leave Mi-Assistant so that it can be used for allowing apps running in a background (example Google Play, Super SU).
[*]Added stock Marshmallow boot animation and removed boot sound.
Features:
Latest Google Security patch
MiFavor UI 4.0 with new themes and fonts
Applications Avatar (I have no idea what it is)
Toolbox - including compass, noise test, ruler, protractor, level meter, paintings
Calendar, shows weather for five next days
New Desktop backup and recovery capabilities
Long screenshots
More system Sleep functions
Smoother UI animations
SMS two-finger zoom
New power limits
Enhanced ZTE lock screen
...and some more which might not be useful in other countries than China (please check more details from: http://www.myzte.cn/thread-270646-1-1.html)
Working:
Wifi, mobile network, mobile data, bluetooth.
Fingerprint scanning.
Google Play services + other Google apps are working too (like Calendar, Contacts sync), but must be activated in Mi-Assistant Auto-start manager and allowing permissions in apps. Please see attached images for example.
Bugs and limitations:
NFC doesn't work.
Only Chinese and English languages, but it is possible to use More Locale 2 app (included in ROM) to change locale settings. Then apps (and part of the system) are working on your defined language. On my opinion it works just like in B06. More Locale requires Root access and executing ADB command (app shows the needed command) to change locale.
Download (B15M beta, updated 09.09.2016):
Mega https://mega.nz/#!cRAXTbqQ!UYTEzWb4AH5yZbcI4fK_09QBM5TYgvCCMMl1uTijetE
Based on the tip from @martas.vavra, I removed stock Chinese recovery so TWRP is not deleted after installing this rom.
Working Super user can be downloaded here https://cloud.tapatalk.com/s/57550023717f4/SuperSU_V2.62-3.zip. Thanks again @martas.vavra.
Quick steps:
(optional) Backup all apps by using ZTE own backup/restore app. It's then possible to restore apps after rom installation.
Install TWRP+root by using the method by @acer73: http://forum.xda-developers.com/zte-axon/development/zte-axon-elite-a2016-twrp-root-t3237760
Copy ZTE_Axon_Elite_A2016_unofficial_B15M_09092016 to SD card.
Boot to TWRP recovery.
Do full backup in TWRP.
Do factory reset in TWRP.
Install ZTE_Axon_Elite_A2016_unofficial_B15M_09092016 from SD card in TWRP. NOTE! Status bar is not progressing at all when installation is ongoing! Don't panic. Just wait, it will complete.
Install Super User .zip again.
Reboot. Please be patient, first boot will take minutes to complete.
After first boot is complete, start Mi-Assistant and enable apps (Google Play, Google Contacts, SuperSU... etc) in Auto-run Manager.
Enable app permissions for Calendar, Contacts, Phone, SMS, Storage in Settings -> Apps, App permissions.
Reboot.
(optional) Restore apps by using ZTE own backup/restore app. ZTE has removed Backup/restore app but here's download link for backup/restore app from B12M: https://mega.nz/#!hZQ2HTbb!IvTJu17kjibXGSJBsRUutz0wwPZL0XlruDVAyExqsC8
Note to users: I'm not responsible if you brick your phone, so please be careful!
Thank you for your efforts! Great to hear that there are only minor bugs. :fingers-crossed:
Leaves me thinking about why ZTE does not provide this update by themselves if there are only few things needed to be adjusted in order to make this work...

Like already mentioned, when trying to add PIN lock, settings will force close. I also compared international B05 and Chinese marshmallow rom files and noticed differences on fingerprint modules and apps, so I believe we are out of luck here.

I think that copying that files, modules and apps would be possible, from one to another, won't you? I have no idea of how to doing it, but maybe it is easy for someone experimented in rom's modding.

Unfortunately I don't know, because I was testing this rom just half day. On that time I didn't notice battery drain. I returned back to B06 because my phone has to be password protected and I just can't live anymore without fingerprint scanner.

Probably it's nothing to do with fingerprint scanner. I checked logcat file and settings will force close before that. Settings will force close right after trying to enable PIN code lock.

With cyanogenmod there has been similar issues with some devices and error has been caused by wrong baseband (https://forum.cyanogenmod.org/topic/118507-cant-enable-screen-lock/?page=3), which means that users have not been updating the baseband before updating the latest version of cyanogenmod. This might be the same issue, I used lollipop baseband to get this work.
I created new version based on latest Chinese B10M (previous was B09M):

How to restore 5.0.1 ?

How to restore 5.0.1 ?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Easiest and the best way is to take full twrp backup first before installing this rom. Then it can be restored in twrp and phone is restored to the state it was before.
If backup is not made, then stock B05 update.zip needs to be installed in recovery (in stock or twrp).
@kacsa105 pointed out that adb root method doesn't work anymore with B10M. I didn't notice it because I installed recovery + supe su in right after I installed B10M in twrp.
If you are now in stock Chinese recovery, then follow these steps to restore stock B05 in stock (Chinese) recovery:
1. download B05 from:
http://download.ztedevice.com/UpLoadFiles/product/643/6549/soft/2016042111364202.zip. Unzip it and find update.zip
2. place update.zip to phone internal SD card
3. shut down your phone
4. reboot to recovery: Press and hold Volume up button then Press and hold Power button. When ZTE logo appears, stop pressing Power button but continue pressing Volume up until it goes to recovery.
5. It should be now in stock Chinese recovery. You need to use volume up/down buttons and move it to the selection where is written something on Chinese but with letters SD (which means your internal SD card). Press Power button to select it.
6. Use vol down to navigate until you see update.zip and choose it with power button. If I remember correctly, you need to confirm Yes (it should be in English if I remember it correctly).
7. After it has been updated, recovery asks something again in Chinese. Don't change the selection, just use power button to select what it proposes, and system will boot.
Just wait until your phone boots back to system. If it keeps crashing, just power it down and reboot again to recovery. Recovery should be in English now. Then clear cache and dalvik (or was it factory reset?) and boot to system again.
Google play crashed, when download big data games. Solution pls
Are known any major issues with this ROM? Tired of Mi-sh*t, I'm thinking about install TWRP, make a backup and later this or CM. Is worth it?

I'm not using this rom because PIN lock screen and fingerprint doesn't work (CM has these issues too). Then it has some China specific in the settings. Be careful when installing this B10 rom, you need to install twrp recovery + root again in recovery right after flashing this rom. Otherwise you will loose root and recovery is replaced by stock Chinese.
On my opinion this is not worth of flashing, you don't even notice major differences. In some devices Marshmallow has improved performance and battery life, but I didn't notice any difference. I'm using stock B06 (5.0.2) with xposed (+some modules installed) and I'm happy with it.
Of course this rom is fun to try if you want to test how Marshmallow will look in our device.

Whatsapp not installing in any rom.

Hi there, i'm quite confused and desperate. I was on Computerfreaks stock rom for a while untill i decided i needed to change the flavor of my device a little bit and installed RR 6.0.
Sadly it came with a lot of bugs, one day it logged me out of my whatsapp account every hour and i had to do all the first-time setup again, so i grew tired of it and installed the flashable stock 6.0 rom zip.
Everything was good, but then when i tried to install whatsapp google play would tell me that it couldn't install, error code 504. It had nothing to do with the avaliable storage obviously so then i did the whole google account removal/ erasing cache, uninstalling, rebooting, etc. Nothing, the mistake keep going. I downloaded the apk directly, and when i tried to install it, it wouldn't pass the setup and just display "app cannot be installed" only gaving me the option to accept it.
This is when i realized it had to be a bigger problem, so i switched roms ro RR 7.1.2, i could install the app.....however it simply crashed at launch, and wouldn't even allow me to complete the initial setup. I've changed the DPI, governors, tried with beta versions and older versions of the app, and nothing. I've tried with AOSP extended, Kang, and the roms mentioned above without success.
It's funny thought, every other app works wonderfully, it just this annoying thing that i actually need to use, that refuses to install.
In twrp i've wiped everything. System, Data, internal storage, dalvik, cache.
I've tried using another google account.
I just don't know what else to do.
Fun fact, i've also tried to see if this was the app's fault and just for the lolz i've installed it on my tablet.....it worked at the first installation like a charm.

Sadly it came with a lot of bugs,
one day it logged me out of my whatsapp account every hour and i had to do all the first-time setup again,
so i grew tired of it and installed the flashable stock 6.0 rom zip.

I'm sorry you are having issues, but it has nothing to do with the ROMs you have used. How are you restoring data when you flash the new ROMs, if you are restoring data? Are you using Titanium Backup?
My wife and I are on RR 6.x and we both have and use What's App. Nothing is wrong with it. It doesn't log us out "every hour" -- never logs us out.
RR 6.x doesn't have "a lot of bugs" -- in fact it's rock stable and that's why I've stuck with it instead of going to Nougat ROMs. And because of xposed modules, which I am loathe to give up just yet.
Considering LOTS of people use What's App on all the ROMs you mentioned -- including my personal experience with two XT1225 on RR 6.X -- it's not the ROMs at fault in any way.
I know it's not the ROMs fault, I've ruled that out since I've changed 5 times of rom and it keeps failing. Yet I don't know what I should do to solve this problem. I'm not restoring any data, I've done a full clean install everytime, no xposed, even no root sometimes.
