Hi
I currently have miui 7.3.2 global. It was already installed when I purchased it from a seller online. Ive had a few problems with Google accounts not syncing and few glitches in the taskbar etc
Now I'm a complete noob, but I was hoping someone could guide me, into updating to a more solid, clean, stable ROM? I don't think I am rooted
Thanks

Download global stable 8.1 fastboot ROM and flash it using edl mode. Use Google for procedure to flash using edl. Flow the procedure carefully. Any small mistake will destroy your phone.

Hey!
New to the XDA forum, not new to Android!
I will cut to the chase and explain really fast what I need help with.
I have been using the Imperium ROM 4.4.2 KK for a few weeks now and I love it.
But as of a few days ago, Update 4.0 (up from 3.6) was released, and my phone just won't stop spamming me with "upgrade to the latest version 4.0!" . However, as far as I can tell, I have to re-download the 4.0 ROM and flash my phone entirely over again.
So, TL;DR:
I am using the Galaxy S4 Imperium 4.4.2 ROM 3.6 and I want to;
a)Upgrade to 4.0 without re-flashing my and having to re-install all apps, backup photos etc.
b)Turn off the spam notifications about updating.
Thanks in advance, sincerely

I have the same problem i was using 6.0 and now 7.0 is out can i just perform ota update or do i have to donwload the rom and flash it.....what about my apps installed in 6.0 can i just apply update from sd in recovery...i dont want to reinstall all those apps again.plz help
Guys come on. These are really basic questions.
- If you are not prepared to wipe everything from time to time, then you should stay away from custom roms.
- You can just try it yourself if it works. Make a backup and flash away. If you got problems, fully wipe and restore your backup.

Recently updated my old Nexus 10/Manta to OmniROM 6.0.1 and I couldn't be happier. I had a fair bit of messing around on the first try until I got the sequence right...full wipe, flash ROM, flash Gapps pico and everything works REALLY well.
However, installing nightly updates is the same for me as the initial flash...I have to do a full wipe or I get the Google Services loop.
Am i doing something wrong is that how nightlies work currently?

Hi,
i'm rather new with rooting, flashing and all the stuff that comes with it.
Now i have an Oppo Find7 and i managed to install the following:
-TWRP recovery
-OmniRom 5.1 nightly
-Gapps 5.1
I'm pleased everything worked but now i saw OmniRom 6.0, when i tried to flash it with gapps i encountered the first problem:
-The install of OmniRom went well but when i try to install Gapps 6.0 stock, it is saying i dont have enough storage? Can i somehow increase or free up this storage to it can fit?
Second question: If the above is possible, is there a way to flash OmniRom 6.0 and Gapps 6.0 without the loss of data? or do i still have to backup and restore with titanium backup?
Thanks in advance

Hi there,
I have a Nexus 7 2013 wifi. Latest omni marshmallow but I have one issue. Battery drain.
It seems as it does not suspend. Maybe someone could point me in the right direction to help squash this pesky bug.
What I can add is that I have a Nexus 5 with same apps and settings without the issue .
Thank you

I just upgraded from ZTE Maven running Android 5.1, to a Galaxy Express 3 running Android 6.0.1. love the phone, but for one thing. I playing a game called Walking War Robots. It played good on the 5.0, but really lags bad on the 6.0.1.. I thought the better phone would be better but it's worse. I've also noticed that the graphics are better for the 6.0.1, including shadows for robots, etc. I believe it adds to the problem. What I'd like to know, is there a way to improve the performance of my phone to get rid of the lag, or is there a way to disable enhanced graphics and make the game think I'm running 5.0 to get rid of the shadows and enhanced graphics. I can do without robot shadows for the sake of smooth gameplay. Any help will be greatly appreciated... YodaXIII
password reset?
I decided to try the official Nougat for my 6P. Before going there, I made a TWRP backup, which I used "adb pull" to get to my computer. After trying Nougat and deciding I didn't like it, I went back to Omnirom from the TWRP backup. At boot it asks for the decryption password, which works fine, and omnirom starts up correctly. It then prompts me for password after restart, and it insists that I enter the wrong one. What options do I have to get past this, other than a clean install and then recover my apps/data from backups?
[edit: solved it] I entered the file manager of TWRP and removed /data/system/locksettings* After this, the next reboot required decryption password, as expected, but did not require a lockscreen password, so all was fine and I could again set a new lockscreen protection.
I have a micromax unite 4 pro (Q465) but on google there is no recovery img for any recovery I request u to help me how can I install a custom recovery to flash a zip filee please help me

Hello everyone, i am new to the scene of the Mi A1, i bought the phone about 1 month ago and have been observing the forums, but i would like to ask some questions the community as i have not yet managed to find clear answers to the forums if someone can help me
1. If i root the phone is there a way to revert back to complete stock and get OTA's again?
2. In custom roms, can i get the stock camera working 100%?
3. Is there any custom rom that you recommend in terms of stability and battery life?
4. Are there any drawbacks to the custom rom scene?
5. Do you recommend the stock rom with a custom kernel or a custom rom altogether?
Thank you in advance for your answers, i hope that this thread might be useful to gather some questions altogether for anyone that might have wondered the same stuff as me
Hello,
1. There is a way to update OTA with magisk, but you will need you use magisk just as systemless, without touching system stuff. Alternative you can have root and just unroot everytime you want to update the ROM or you can manually flash the update... You can try this guide... https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a1/how-to/root-mi-a1-oreo-8-0-disabling-ota-magisk-t3728654
2. Stock camera works in custom ROMs, someone did a port somewhere in this forums... https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a1/themes/oreo-mia1-stock-rom-camera-app-custom-t3758543
3 and 4. Most of the custom ROMs are based on the same sources, LineageOS was one of the first "stable" ROMs so most of the ROMs are based on it, inheriting all of its bugs (haven't found a critical bug). I've tested a few ROMs and the mosts I liked in terms of battery life and stability are... LineageOS and Pixel Experience, you will need to test them out for yourself.
5. If you want to experience a more "stable" feeling stick to Xiaomi development, the latest stable version is 8.0 (with rumors of 8.1 coming soon). If you want latest Android updates and features go for a 8.1 custom ROM.
In my experience you will need to try all this things on your own, until you find a place where you feel comfortable with your phone. Just read guides on how to recover your phone from a bootloop and you are good to go!
I will answer only question number 4 because the guy above me said everything, by the way I prefer RR.
The drawbacks I found on custom roms are 2 for me...
1) Poor signal reception compared to stock
2) Sound quality is much better in stock compared to custom... (my opinion)
I am itching to root the device but to be honest the only thing i want is android 8.1 and a better battery, other than that i am pretty much satisfied with what i have. (and this is coming from someone that changed rom every other week on previous phones) Thank you for your replies, they were informative and greatly appreciated! I just hope Xiaomi updates the phone soon because it feels kinda outdated for an android one device

I'm pretty new to Android. Just bought a seller refurbished Xiaomi Redmi 2 (HM 2LTE-CMCC) 2GB 16GB 2014CP6123 from ebay. Has MUI 7.0 4.4.4 ktu84p. Should I factory reset (to get rid of any Chinese viruses/spyware etc.) and then flash EU Rom or global? I don't want to root it as I want to use banking apps etc. but would like the latest possible Android version which I read is nougat, is installing a custom Rom different to EU/Global Rom? Would a custom Rom affect the apps available on the play store? (I rooted an android tablet and couldn't use banking apps etc.)
Hoping someone could give me step-by-step general advice and best Roms etc/tutorials links? Also the video recording stated it would be 1080p but is a little fuzzy, it's turned itself off once or twice from sleep mode despite being almost fully charged and the battery seems to quite quickly. Do I need to buy a new battery?
Seems your phone is Redmi 2 Enhanced (HM2014813) which is China only version. i'm sorry to tell you that this version has no official global rom (China rom only available), no custom rom, and mostly no much help about this device. I think the used Leadcore CPU is the main problem.
Flashing miui rom using fastboot method is recommended to get rid of some bloatware. Please note you will still get some xiaomi chinese apps after flashing due to your phone variant.
