Hello all, i have a mi8 128gb global, recently i opened my bootloader for custom roms and root, i succesfully opened but i have a problem with custom roms. When i install a custom rom, notch's edges are getting too weird its getting serrated. But in miui its smooth and beatiful. i can clearly see even when booting.Does anybody experiencing this too. How to fix it?
I decided to unlock mine just a few days ago as well and noticed this over Havoc and POSP. It's pretty weird considering it's a software issue around most custom ROMs. Havoc has a setting to modify the curvature of the screen but it doesn't fix it completely.

Yes, but tomorrow I'm planning something to do, today i see that in the system files there is a notch overlay app is exist. I think this one gives the notch to a shape. And also I noticed in vendor there is a folder similar like that. Whatever, my plan is after installed rom, getting that system files and copy-paste to the custom rom system directory. I think this will fix our issue, I mean I hope :fingers-crossed:

So i rooted my new nexus 6 and installed chroma rom. every thing was fine till i noticed a small part of the screen flicker. it was like a black line coming and going as soon as i took it off charging it was fine. this was after i installed the rom there was nothing like this on the stock one. also when i open the camera app i can hear a small click/ crackle sound. this happened in the stock rom too but with the snapchat app. its irritating and i cant find a fix anywhere. and lastly whats with the network issue? it suddenly comes and goes. i checked it and it showe 0dbm and 99 asu?is this common? tried to find a fix but all i got was lots of unanswered threads. as being a student who need to use this phone for a long time can anyone tell me if all this is fixable ? or do i need to get a replacement as im still in my 30 day return period. thanks in advance and sorry if all this issues are already in a post and have fixes just post me the link as i could find it
being a student who needs the use of the phone for long periods of time.. what are you foing moddifying your device. no custom rom will be bug free. even though whtyever bugs dont bother me, they seem to bug you. why dont you just stay stock with root if those issues are bugging you.

I know no roms are bug free, just wanted to know if these are common software issue and not a bad device that i got. And on the other hand i used my s3 for 2.5-3 yrs with custom roms and stuff simply as i enjoy running them and seeing all the amazing stuff people can do with skill that was the main reason i got a nexus

Announcement: Maybe we are close to a software solution
Dear Friends,
my HM2014813 has several problems:
On some AOSP roms I get BSOD: When screen gets locked and black, I can't turn it on unless I remove and reinsert battery.
On LineageOS PowerOFF does not work properly. Ends in a situation like BSOD
After booting into TWRP the touchscreen is unresponsive. I have to lock and unlock, to get response.
I think I'm not alone with this problem. Most of us get recommendations like that: Replace Screen
This problem is not present in every rom. So there should be a solution without hardware modification. What else can we try?
For reference here are the HM codes: source
Redmi 2 1/8GB & 2/16GB/Prime = HM2014811 / 17/18/21 (wt88047)
Redmi 2 A / Enhanced = HM2014812 / 13/16 (wt86047)
Redmi 2 Pro = HM2014819
Before I continue, I'd like to remind you that Redmi 2A is a china-only phone, the chipset isn't Qualcomm based, but Leadcore based. My fellow friends that I know that have a WT86047 aren't Redmi 2A's. They're running Qcom and have no signal loss in my country.
I picked WT88047, but honestly I've seen them in all of those variants (except Redmi 2A variants). I have 4 friends that bought 2016's batch of shipped RM2 (Prime or just RM 2). These friends of mine didn't buy at the same place, 2 of them bought it online and the 2 others bought it from a local vendor (not an official Xiaomi store). From those 4 friends of mine, 2 of my friends got the HM2014813 (WT86047), one got HM2014818 (WT88047) and the last one got a HM2014811 which is the same as mine.
All of them (including me) faced the same bugs (BSOD, screen freezing, TWRP not working). So it's not just a specific variant of RM2, but all of them. Hypothetically (CMIIW) all RM2's that are shipped at 2016 above nearly all of them have this bug (unless you bought it from an official Xiaomi store, which is pretty much hard to find, because Xiaomi don't show, even sell, old phones). 2 of my friends sold their devices, one friend of mine sticked it with it's current case and stayed on stock MIUI & my last friend (with the HM2014813 - WT86047) followed my lead by changing his screen with an official screen that he got from a relative that has an unused RM2, bought from an official vendor. Now me and him can go custom rom or modding all we want without those old bugs that used to plague our phones.
So to the RM2's batch 2016 are all shipped with bad and faulty hardware parts. Mostly nearly of them are faulty sensors. Or maybe those RM2's that are shipped are refurbished RM2's that are given bad parts or maybe bad LCD screens. Like I said before in my previous posts about this, It's the sensors. They are totally bugged. I don't know what made them that way. Why I said it was the sensors? Because my old front sensors got changed when I checked it with a system specs app. My local part vendors sell RM2 LCD's and when you buy a LCD, it's a whole package, you can't by per-parts (unless you disassemble them one buy one). What I mean "it's a whole package" is if you buy an LCD, you will get the touchscreen and front sensors with it. If it's not the sensors, maybe it's the touchscreen (just using my logic here)
I don't know about fixes and stuff (without having to do hardware modif). I'm not a developer, I don't understand that much about BLOBs and shims. Well let's hope someone who's a developer and has a RM2 with those bugs show up with a fix so that people don't have to do any hardware modifications on their bugged RM2's.
Miui stable and best.
All custom roms have good interface but music enchancher , camera not satisfied in custom roms.

Well custom roms are for modification, so If you're not impressed with how the music sounds like in custom roms, you could always just install a mod for it. There's Viper4Android, Dolby Digital Plus, AM3D Zirene, etc. Just find what you need, flash the mod per instructions you need and voila, you've got better music in you're custom rom. Installing these sound mods even work well in MIUI. You've got dozens of Camera apps that may (or maynot) go better on in custom roms than MIUI. Just saying though, if you love MIUI it's fine to stay on MIUI.
For those who has the same problem, try enabling portable hotspot. It solve the problem for me, but yes, it'll also drain your battery faster

I tried it once when my device was still having those bugs. It doesn't work. At all.
I had two redmi 2 online and both had the BSOD issue. It didn't matter which MIUI version it was on, it can still get triggered into the BSOD.
This is the procedure that triggers it.
1.Start an app that generates a lot of objects
2.Keep the device with the app until the back is warm/hot
3.Exit from the app or click home
4.Now quickly press the side power button to turn off screen
5.Redmi Black Screen and cut off from power even if you had music app on.
I have concluded that it might be a hardware issue since I had test another none online redmi 2 with these redmi 2 with the same MIUI version. What should triggered the same effect did not affect the none online redmi 2.
Perhaps using a soft lockscreen button might be able to avoid this issue.
Mine starts getting this problem after I changed the display (bought cheap from aliexpress). Never had a single problem before, while now miui is the only rom that works

Then you should thank the devs for pulling this one off. Either they've tweaked or fixed what created the bug or because Android Oreo doesn't communicate with device drivers the same way as it's predecessors. Thanks for testing Oreo and latest Lineage. I'll recommend these to my other pals that are still bugged with BSoD. Cheers :highfive:

HI I am on MIUI Global 12.0.3 (QFKMIXM) Stable ROM 10 QKQ1.190825.002 and this week, my phone suddenly is not able to receive calls which happens intermittently, sometimes I can receive calls, sometimes not, but so many people called me this week (food deliveries, package deliveries, surgery call for my Wife) and they all said that yes they did call me and that I did not even receive an SMS or Missed Call notification.
I don't know if this symptom is related to finally making a XIAOMI account and logging into it via the phone's main settings.
Also I noticed since then, while rebooting the phone I get this notification that XIAOMI services could not be activated on both SIMs 1 and 2
This to me is a sad spectacle, I had this phone for about one year now and I admit to having it dropped a few times.
What could be the issue here guys? Would like to know if this is SIM carrier related or purely a manifestation of a hardware failure?
Damn, I don't want to buy a new phone.
PS I opted out of the Beta versions of Google Phone App and Messages
Anyone who have experienced this? please help and chime in??

It shows a sort of liquid indicating the battery left and the percentage of the battery left when you plug in the charger

XDA has gone from a site of doer's to a site full of can't doer's and as unfortunate as it is, that's the truth. Go to the main page of this forum and tell me what most of the articles are about. Almost all of them are complaints, I need a cable, my alarm doesn't work, my battery life is bad, I'm stuck in fastboot, how do you flash rom/TWRP, I'm not getting notifications, how do you unlock bootloader, etc...These are all simple questions that are well documented and many of them are in guides, but to find that information, one needs to search.

Did he search the entire web before he started this whine. I would bet not, charging animation not working, now there's a real issue. Read the thread and you will see that others are not having that problem. Now if this user had searched the entire web, they would realize that perhaps the settings got changed somehow or that the data/cache needed to be cleared.
Hi, pretty self-explanatory title I think, but does anyone know of a way to make the fingerprint scanner on a community ROM (MIUI or OSS vendor, doesn't really matter, and preferably A12-based) work the same way you can optionally set it up in MIUI, that is to only scan the fingerprint after you press the power button, not simply by touching? Or is there a ROM that supports this feature (and is generally considered good)?
This is honestly a deal breaker for me when it comes to using anything other than MIUI, because when I already tried a community ROM (A12 Derpfest, in particular), I found it incredibly annoying that any random touch unlocked my phone even when I certainly didn't want it to, and not using the scanner at all or setting it up for some awkward finger I rarely use is really a solution.
Cheers.
Well I've been asking the same thing in Pixel extended Rom post. Hope someone would made it working.
Also requested in Magisk thread for some module if anyone can made. No response so far
@Case_ have u sorted the issue? Any updates?
Woaaah i didn't even know this was an option, just turned it on. So much better i get annoyed when it tries to scan constantly..

Nope. I got mocked a bit for asking (elsewhere, not here), also got the advice to scan less fingers (not exactly helpful), but nothing else. I've seen someone mention that Pixel Experience might possibly have this, but no idea if it applies to our device.
With nandroid backups not working well in A12, I'm not exactly keen on installing the ROM just to see it's not there anyway. And I was kinda busy with other stuff anyway. I might do it eventually, though.

No, pixel experience doesn't have that. Also No A12 rom has it.
@arunsebstn I guess the person was talking about PE for a different device, then
Not sure of this helps. I have the ROM from Mirza and it has option to press.
@RAMBO29 Yeah, but that's because it is just a customized MIUI ROM. We're talking non-MIUI ROMs here (as the thread title says).
So, it's been a while and I haven't really been testing new ROMs (for practical reasons, mostly)...anybody knows if this might perhaps finally be a thing now outside of MIUI ROMs? Thanks.
Same, I'm surprised there isn't a magisk module for this, maybe one does exist and we just don't know of it?
Hey, latest CrDroid 8.6 (Android 12) has the option you're looking for. Only searches for fingerprint unlock when you press the power button, when screen is off, so is the fingerprint scanner.
@Case_
@batureal Cool, thank you!
Lineageos 19.1
So it seems like the option is finally showing up in community ROMs. Great!
