Wierd bug on every custom ROM! - Xiaomi Redmi 2 Questions & Answers

I wanted to ask u guys whether u have faced this bug or not but this bug has teased me in each and every custom rom!
No matter Aosp or CM based or any android version (i haven't used any kk ROM).
Well the bug is that while i use my sim in roaming..... the sim1 section starts acting wierdly....like showing data connection but internet not working!
after restarting the device i get the net connection but after sometime the internet goes away and i can't even make a call and in the SIM settings the sim card starts showing its name bi SIM Card 1 instead of the operator's name!
Earlier in MM ROMs i just had a workaround of swapping the data SIM settings and reverting back again to the main sim...but this is no longer working in Nougat roms!
Sorry i couldn't provide screenshots because i reverted back to miui and currently roaming and sorry for my bad english!
If anyone has any kind of answer about why it happens or has a workaround...plz kindly share!

yes i am facing this bug too

any workaround?

Maybe hardware or kernel issue unless...
In the stock MIUI rom does it work fine? If it doesn't maybe a hardware (doubt it) or kernel issue

I also guess its a kernel issue but i have also tried several other kernels in ROMs such as Tesla N,Cm14 and even in Lineage OS!
the problem exists in all ROMs except MIUI....so it is obvious that it is not hardware related!
This problem only annoys me when i travel and believe me it is a very serious problem that very few people have observed!

Even I have the same problem! It's annoying as hell!

it's a wonder that only a handful people have faced this......
they will eventually face this bug once they put a roaming simcard....for now i hope any dev pays attention to this bug!

Even I am facing this problem. Tried all avl custom Rom but in vain. Only MIUI works fine. Also I am facing touch issues on my R2, I have flashed R2P firmware in order to enable VoLTE. Now VoLTE is working but i am facing false/random touch all over the screen occassionally. Any solutions????

Fastboot Flashing MIUI will help

u should flash the MIUI LP ROM via fastboot......this may remove the ghost touch!
u should ask this to some other members also....i might be wrong!

tried but its of no use. i think there is some compatability issues with LP Rom on R2. Coz KK Rom is not having this issue. but there is no VoLTE in KK

Well! This discussion is Off-Topic here but.....
No question here of compatibility on R2,my friend has R2 and i have flashed MiUi 7&8 LP on his device, everything is working fineand no problems at all.
P.S.- i just faced one problem while flashing MIUI LP that i lost the recovery which i flashed via fastboot!

I can more or less confirm this bug. I think the root cause is the weirdness in the APN settings. When I loss internet with the actual connection ON, the APN in the settings is unselected. And when you try selecting it or try to add another APN it becomes more weird. Sometimes as soon as the new APN is added, even the old APN disappears. Sometimes it is added. Restarting does solve the problem most of the times.
I don't know it's related to my handset(r2prime) or simcard. I request other advanced users to replicate this in their handset by creating new APN in SIM 1 or even SIM 2. I hope our great developers will take note of this weirdness.

Same here
I face this problem on every custom ROM be it Nexus experience, DU, hTC remix, or CM, this problem persists.
And I experience it even when I am not roaming. Please if anyone has a solution. Replyyyyyy.

This is the bug I only face. The picture clears it all. Do you have any solution on this issue. Workaround I use is to clear the ANP and reset it to default several times, sometime it work after restarting the device. Do you have any other solution regarding this problem. I am using MOKEE 7.1.1 .

ur picture is broken,in N ROMs the only workaround in restarting the device to lose the connection again in 10 minutes!
As I mentioned in the post,in previous versions i used to swap the default sim under settings for data and reverted back to the original just after swapping, This little trick worked for me but now in N ROMs this isn't working anymore!
Hope any dev considers this bug and pays aome attention to it!

Hey! The latest TeslaN build seems to solve the problem. Using it since a day and turned on and off data several times. It connected perfectly. Also data didn't disconnect randomly like before.

What do you mean by roaming? While travelling? I had the problem even when I was at home. With Tesla I don't have any problem at home. Haven't tried when I was outside. Will let you know.

Wifi dropping on Miui 7.5.0.3 Android 5.1.1

Hello guys.
I have one Redmi 2 Prime Global with Miui 7.5.0.3 Android 5.1.1 and after it changed, thru OTA, to Lolipop the wifi got crazy.
It's connected in wifi but it, randomly, stop traffinc data. A simple put in airplane mode, fix it, but after a couple of minutes I lose the wifi again.
For the sake of the discussion, I already have searched all the internet and the mess that is the Miui forums. Some other users have the same issues but there's no information about solution.
It seems that it's a driver issue with lolipop and even the Miui 8 beta has this problems. I know because I have tried it.
I trully appreciate if anyone can help me on this issue or knows any more info about it. Thank you.

Welp. flashing Jerrica makes things better, but does not solve it.
Now my phone has a more stable wifi, but its has the same issues still and randomly reboots (something like one time in a couple of days).
Any more suggestions are welcome, as it seems that you have experienced similar issue.
This might not be the Problem but I think it is ....
Flashing MIUI Update 7.5.3 caused many a Problem ,
Like , the Navigation bar Stops working .. Volume keys Stop working , phone Reboots itself and heats like hell ...
I tried Every Method to solve it , even with a Format , didn't work ,,.. then I just reflashed the ROM and it was Gone .. if you don't want to Do a Format (dalvik/cache/data wipe) then Dirty flash it again .. but I'll say , do a proper flash , backup all your apps and data using titanium backup , upload your things to google and do a Proper flash ..
Hope it solves it , I have Experienced the problem and This Solved it in many cases apart from This too . MIUI 7.5.3 supports both 5GHz and 2.5GHz so it shouldn't be a Problem with Wifi ..

I think you should flash a fastboot rom of 7.5.3, i am out of suggestions:laugh::laugh::laugh:
Quick update, for the sake of who has the same problem.
Nothing fixed it (in any lolipop version). But last week Xiaomi published the Miui 8.6.9.29 beta, after a few weeks with a pending update for the Redmi 2 prime. With this update the wifi, finally, is fixed.
Thank you guys for the help.

I didn't face It in RR..Its Great! I faced that Problem in the another MM rom that I flashed '
i Didn't face any problems in RR!
Two possible problems, the hardware of the phone (maybe something is damaged or bugged) orrr most common one is the software (because of ROMS or other stuff on installed)
Have you Fixed it?
i was facing same problem after flashing adityarom v3. i was sure that its not hardware problem because when i flash other roms, i don't face it.
try flashing other roms and make sure this is rom problem.
if it software problem, then try this few steps. might work
go to About Phone in the settings and tap 5 times on build number.
you'll get a message saying you are now a developer
go back and you'll find a new setting named developer option.
scroll down. under debugging tab there is few wifi settings. try changing them. change logger buffer size. that worked for me.
(some roms not having wifi options in developer options)
or try dialing *#*#4636#*#* in dialer
and check wifi information. change if needed. it might work.
also try disabling battery saver apps. some battery saver app frequently disable wifi to save battery.
hope it helped

while installing follow all the steps which is wrriten on that custom rom thread.and install latest gapps while flashing.may be u r skipping something thats why it is happening.
2nd thing .may be where u r living there is network issue of jio.and u r getting week signle. plus in custom rom also u ll get little less signle compare to stock rom.
if u want then u can use stock rom there u ll get maximum single strength. and try to download the apps.
if issue persist then try to attach screenshot with your issue.

Hi Shiva,
Thanks for your reply.
1. I'm sure, no mistakes in flashing the rom and gapps (installed latest version). I did this many times before.
2. I tried installing apps in other mobiles (having stock rom) using jio on roaming.
3. Signal strength is fine.
Im new to this forum and i didnt find option to attach file.
Does anyone facing this issue?
@karthikn26, Bro manually set the apn jionet for jio. I too was facing problems on roaming but once somehow the data connection is established, everything was fine, until I close the data connection and switch it on after some time.

It it solved my voLTE works now
Having a serious problem.....I'm running pixel experience ROM now but I have a tried nitrogen OS, ressurection remix ROM, Lineage OS 15.1, Viper OS (nougat), Lineage OS 14.1 and many other ROMs. Volte was working fine few days ago but for the past 3-4 days it was not working. I thought it was a problem with the ROM so I changed the ROM but still got the issue. And today I came to know that my device is showing IMS registration: unavailable
Voice-over LTE: not available and some other things
I tried messing with APNs and flashed some volte patches but still got no luck. Then I tried searching on XDA forum and know what I tried every possible method in almost all the threads and still not able to get volte. Tried searching YouTube for IMS registration and tried googling it also but still the problem is there.
Help me out plzzzz....

Maybe you need to write IMEI number again?
Does it show there when pressing *#06#* ?
U may try going back to MIUI 9
And then back to your favorite ROM
I did every single step mentioned above. Even my IMEI number is all good. But VOLTE problem reamins the same.
During the first boot...VOLTE was there, and it was working. Even when I Rebooted, it was again there and still working. But when I Power Off the device and then powered it on, VOLTE was gone and I was unable to call.

I did that too and thrice bt the problem remained unsolved. As I mentioned, it worked during the initial boot of any custom rom, even after rebooting it. Bt when I powered it off and then booted it up, VOLTE was gone.

Yeah happens with me to but now m using Xiaomi.eu miui 9 ROM bro use it for some days and flash another ROM voLTE will work fine as it creates a strong bond between firmware and ROM that miui 9 official doesn't and it has more features than it miui 9. So give it a try

Will Jio work?
Use this trick:-
Flash any miui rom v8 or v9 & boot into system..
Now go to recovery wipe all except storage.
Now flash any custom rom i suggest lineage 14.1 & boot into system..
Now again go to recovery go to wipe , advance wipe & wipe only system
Now flash any MIUI rom then wipe cache & dalvik
Now reboot...
Volla your volte now works...
I tried 2 times & all time it works....
If it works for u hit thanks..

Having random reboots with all the custom roms

my phone works stable with the official rom but all the custom roms are crashing.
aospextended v6.7 and resurrection remix pie 7.0.2 are bootlooping, i can't even complete the first setup. rebooted over 20 times. during the first setup or at the boot logo. i couldn't even complete my setup and see the launcher.
groovy works better, but randomly reboots here and there. sometimes in minutes sometimes in few hours... got 5 crashes so far, it's the only rom that's "kinda usable" but google play services and setup wizard crashed during the first setup
https://imgur.com/drxsurP
https://imgur.com/9h4O6Iz
also tried changing my kernel, installed icey, nothing changes...
what might be the problem here?
phone is zenfone selfie zd551kl (z00t)
installing gapps pico but tried without gapps as well... same problems.
bootloader is unlocked.
using twrp 3.3.1-0, 3.4.0-0 gives me error 7 and can't install roms.
my battery is new, it can last over a week with the stock rom. without any crashes... completely stable. i don't thing it has any hardware issues.
can i even log the errors if it can't even boot properly? if so, how?
what can i try to solve this problem?
Flash twrp latest version.. reboot to twrp..wipe everything...then power off your phone..then again reboot to twrp.. now install your rom from sd card.. hopefully you won't get any errors

okay, restarting after the wipe helped with twrp 3.4.0-0, i could install without error 7 this time.
but the phone still rebooted at the "hi there" screen, a few seconds after the first boot... then did it again. now booting for the third time... still not stable.
edit:4th reboot...
8 reboots so far... yeah same bootloop again. not fixed the problem.
can i take logs from a bootlooping phone? i can't enable debugging from the settings...
edit2: tried again without gapps, aospextended booted. and apparently developer options and debugging are enabled by default. guess i can take logs after all... now waiting to see if it'll crash again without gapps.
edit3: tried nikgapps instead of opengapps since it doesnt have that first google setup process, rebooted 3 times at first but now the uptime is 30 minutes.
edit4: crashed when i tried to signin google play store.

tried resurrection remix marshmallow from 2016, looks stable so far... so, my phone is not compatible with nougat and above? does it make any sense? am i missing some other factory software? is it update-able?
edit: rr mm wasn't stable either. a bit better and not bootlooping but crashes as random points...
now i'm flashing all the stock roms sequentially from the release of this phone. then i'll try one more time...
if it doesn't work i might try flashing latest lollipop and install custom roms over it.
i went back to stock lollipop and installed rr marshmallow on it, no restarts or bootloops so far... looks stable. but it's from 2016.
if i install mm firmware and a newer version of mm nougat oreo or pie roms it won't run stable.
so, my phone is not stable with the custom roms that are using mm firmware for some reason... any ideas?
also what's the best rom i can use with lollipop firmware?

I've had an idea needed to test it first, I got back to latest stock w.w version after booted up completely flashed twrp using adb and wiped cache system and data without wiping ASDF Partition then flashed AEX pie rom( I had problem with my handsfree last I checked) with ICEYS_C kernel and and gapps nano 2020/12/19
After booting up completely my handsfree worked perfectly!
So 2 changes:
1-Stock kernel with w.w version
2-not wiping ASDF Partition
You can try that maybe your problem with custom roms would solve!
Check this thread
[GUIDE][ZD551KL] Zenfone Selfie bootloop, brick, firmware upgrade errors fix etc.
I had to fix a couple of bricked selfie phones (z00ud and z00udb but i assume this works on any selfie zd551kl model), that were probably bricked by autoflashing wrong firmware, so after spending a few days going thru many different tutorials...

The only thing you did different than the others is unofficial way of bootloader unlocking maybe this is the issue maybe not...I don't know really
I did it officially 3 years ago!
I think you should consider buying a new phone or use it with stock Rom...sorry I couldn't help you much!

there are others with unofficially unlocked bootloaders, using custom roms...
i might use "ResurrectionRemix-M-v5.6.9-20160607-Z00T-OFFICIAL"
went back to it after my last attempt with japanese firmware+pie roms. never crashed, so far looks stable enough. and definitely cleaner than crappy bloated zenui
its my secondary phone btw.

today i found that zenfone 2 laser had a more up to date stock rom, tried it on my selfie and installed custom rom over it. didn't work either.
Version WW-21.40.1220.2181 2019/08/07
emmc_appsboot_8939.mbn file from the firmware update was different so i had a hope for a few minutes
btw how's ur performance? am i losing optimization and performance with the cyanogen nightly based rom from 2016?

my performance is pretty bad compared to this one for example https://browser.geekbench.com/v4/cpu/13132264

mine is geekbench4, yours geekbench5.
marshmallow is not compatible with 5 so i couldn't bench it. you can install 4 tho. to compare...
what about 3dmark slingshot? that should be the same
wish i could at least run nougat roms tho. groovy android is more than enough for me.
marshmallow doesn't even have the double tap to switch gesture for last 2 apps its annoying. it doesn't support google dialer's recent versions so no dark mode... last security patch is from 2016...
why am i so unlucky?
edit:damn geekbench5 is much harder i guess...
even my main phone with snapdragon835 can't beat zenfone selfie's geekbench4 single core score
https://imgur.com/iWHuiIH
also roughly 1/3 the performance of nokia8 looks great for such an old mid range phone. wish i could use pie on it too
and since my main phone is pie, that would be easier for me. now they're just too different to switch between. i'm swiping recent apps up to close them or double tapping the recent apps button on my asus etc.

physics score is much higher wow.
so i'm losing performance, security, usability, new features and better design... great! same hardware and i'm not being able to utilize its potential.
meanwhile i had to install xposed and n-ify module for switching between last 2 apps by double tapping recents button gesture and a better quicksettings/notification panel. its not perfect, maybe because my rom is not stock cyanogen and instead resurrection remix with extra customizations... but its not bad, definitely an improvement.
can't properly hide my root with xposed installed tho.
