New Miui Version

Hey guys just wanted to point out that we have one of the newer versions of miui for our phone available here:
http://en.miui.com/download-244.html
It's what I'm going to be using for a bit.
It is for LB/UB
Cheers.
Here's a link to the basic gapps I used(play store only):
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23991606952608222
Instructions:
Boot into recovery, wipe cache data and dalvik cache. (I flashed from stock 4.4.2 with root and recovery)
Install miui zip.
Start up, use it a bit.
Reboot into recovery, wipe cache and dalvik cache.
Install gapps zip.
Here's a review with screenshots
http://en.miui.com/thread-34895-1-1.html
Here's an antutu benchmark attached

Wow !!

Is there any thread for XZ2 Miui 6 on mi forums or could you share some screenshots.
Thank you.
Also, Is it required to go back to kitKat stock for flashing this ?

I flashed from 4.4.2 ftf after root and recovery but you can probably flash from anything if you do a complete wipe including kernel etc check op for screenshots

That's strange are you flashing with debugging enabled as well as unknown sources on a rooted version of 4.4.2?

Hi
A noob question, do we need unlocked BL?

You can't install it with flashtool. You need to root and install reocvery.

There is a new root method for lollipop roms. You can find it in here in the general section. And yes you have to put the rom file in the SD card. I suggest you to read everything about root, bootloader unlocking, TA backup, and recovery and only start it.

TWRP 3.0.0, anyone tried? Test and feedback.

Hi guys,
TWRP 3.0.0 has just been released. Did any of you flash it?
I did not yet as I am trying a rom and don't need to flash anything until next week.
How about the following points?
- backup/restore ==> Does not map correctly efs, thus does not back it up.
- encryption ==> Confirmed OK on COS 12.1 by @geowolf1000, but failed on several CM13 (Sultan's version + official nightlies) data partition with no logic found yet. It seems to depend if encryption has been made on a CM12 then upgrade to CM13 or directly under CM13.
- f2fs support ==> Confirmed OK by @Haiqal Johari
- modems/firmwares flash ability ==> Confirmed OK by @Haiqal Johari
Unless there is one thread already, that might be good to centralize the feedbacks.
Download link ==> https://dl.twrp.me/bacon/
Official thread in OPO Original Android Development section ==> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2766186

Flashed the new version through TWRP 2.8.7.0.5 materialized. Good interface and quite smoother than the 2.8.7.0.5.
After that i flashed the BlissPop 6.0 Chimera (Hybrid-CAF) and it has booted succesfully.
The rest i did't tied it but i prefer much more the 3.0.0 version than others.

Also decrypt successfully for me
I did not test firmwares because latest cos 12. 1..1 works great to my needs

OK thanks.

Well... Flashed the 3.0.0 version from the 2.8.6.0 and it does not boot into recovery anymore (stuck on the 1+ logo). I'll have to flash it using fastboot I guess.
Edit: Solved, I just had a bad download (file less than 1Mo). Strange that TWRP 2.8.6.0 flashed it anyway...

Unfortunately twrp-3.0.0-0-bacon has not EFS Partition for Backup! What is not good.
For comparison twrp-3.0.0-0-hammerhead has EFS Partition for Backup.
That is why I have flashed twrp-3.0.0-0-bacon-20160206_efs.img which has EFS Partition for Backup.

System is long yes, but cache is even worse in a factory wipe.
It took something like four to five minutes.

do not forget that you need KK bootloader if you want to update to 3.0.0.0+ version,flash KK bootloader before you flash twrp 3.0.0+ if your device is still on JB bootloader

ok, everything went fine.
but now, i've tried the Resurrection rom and backed-up the CM13, and when i want to restore it says its read only and i cant, help?

SM-T815 Android 6 Root

So for the guy who want ask for root for the SM-T 815 with the last update to Android 6
http://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/supersu/2014-09-02-supersu-v2-05-t2868133?nocache=1
This method works fine on my Tab with Android 6.
TO-DO
Install last TWRP for SM-T 815
Save the file to your tab
install over TWRP the .zip
have fun!
greez,

Yup, works.
And xposed works too (wanams sdk23 zip, arm version, not arm64)

How and when you got android 6 on SM-T815 ?

Works great
Thanks for the advice.
Works great with my SM-T815 (Android 6.0.1 + TWRP + ROOT + XPOSED)

So install rom, install twrp, install supersu zip and its done? No need for extra modified kernel like lollipop?
Verstuurd vanaf mijn SM-T810 met Tapatalk

Hello guys, I am on 5.0.2 DBT ,Root and TWRP.
It is possible to flash the last update dirty over the running system?
What for a Version of Super User is needed?
Or is a clean flash recommended?
Thank s a lot

Clean flash is highly recommended. Had big standby drain after I dirty flashed it (all your data, apps etc stay, you only lose root, when updating). Factory reset after that and it's fine now (great actually, I'm losing 1% in 10 hours now thanks to doze I guess - before I was losing around 5% in 10 hours)

Does anybody use foldermount under MM?
It says the mount was successfull, but i cant see the files when i open the original folder; but the destination foder there are the files.
I Use foldermount 2.9.2b

Which TWRP do you use?
Recently I was on 5.0.1 with appropriate TWRP, but then I had the device to have it repaired an now it is on 6.0.2. Can I use the latest Lollipop-TWRP?

Yes, u can use the last version. There is no other at the moment. Clean install with factory reset is prefered. Cause of errors.

I keep getting a fail during boot.img. Was on TWRP and then went back to a stock Samsung 5.0.2. Keeps failing via Odin.
Can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.

No it won't get bricked.
Just take a backup of the current ROM using recovery before flashing CM 11.

1. Flash ED300's Rollback .zip from here. (Source Thread by ED300.)
2. Flash your desired KK based ROM.

Use TWRP recovery 2.7 if you wanna flash any KK ROM.
Boot into recovery. Make backup of System ( in case you changed your mind and wanted to roll back )
Goto Wipe--> Advance wipe. Then wipe out System, Data, Cache n Dalvik cache.
Goto install, flash the ROM, and gapps. It would work fine
P.S. the instructions provided by the developer of the ROM.
