Xiaomi Mi A1 + June upgrade / Oreo = all sms lost - Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers

Hi all
I've been the very happy owner of a Mi A1 bought in China with Mr Internet since November : impressive machine, fast and cheap, reliable, working ! Especially impressed when the monthly upgrade that brought me 8.0 after a few months : dazling fast, device startup really speeded up and app launch time amazingly accelerated, smile was not quitting my face .
Only glitch from time to time : proximity sensor will stop working during calls and my ears starts to play with touch interface... Not often.
So basically happiness since the start, up until a few days ago when the monthly upgrade brought 8.1 : all my sms history was lost, I'm using the standard app provided (I try to do this for most functions). I googled and searched, I read about "native sms backup" in the parameters but couldn't find anything useful.
Appart from this all is running fine, I don't really see a difference between 8.0 and 8.1, but this issue makes me sad.
Thanks for your ideas.

use search option before making new thread.
you are not the only one with this problem.

This has been reported already in the XDA article. At least learn to read first before making new threads that are useless.

Wé coco mais tu vois j'ai pas envie de me fader tout ton forum de m pour trouver une aiguille dans une botte de foin, d'ailleurs je constate que tu prends même pas la peine de citer tes sources donc je me demande bien quel est le plus inutile des deux.
On another topic, another major backdraw of this release is that data connection (and even connection itself) is oftenly lost in places where i wouldn't have any issue in the past (since I do the same travel to work it's pretty easy to compare). And this is quite a bigger issue than the previous one, caused by this release.
Mais bon je suppose que vous allez encore me sortir le rtfm de mes deuzes donc voilà bien un endroit inutile pour chercher de l'aide...

Writing in french doesnt make a difference. Btw this forum is supopsed to be english only He doesnt have to provide sources. It is in your obligation to use the search function or even google search if you want answers since these issues were in the media. So he wasnt useless.
There you go:
http://bfy.tw/Iw3N
And if you search for help this is not a useless location. But you didn't search, you asked for help and not because it is difficult but because you didnt want to / were lazy, whatever your reason is.

OK so many users lost their SMS and no solution was provided in the thread about "lost data" (and for some reason I can't post in that thread, it wants me to recreate a profile each time), "the upgrade contained bugs and has been retired", SNAFU.
PD : I don't like forums where regulars feel so superior that they think they have to lecture newcomers.
PD2 : I don't use google search, I use qwant

My SMS were gone too after this downgrade, but the biggest issue for me is overheating. YouTube + messenger is enough to throttle device like hell, while previously on 8.0 it was all ok, phone never got hot so much like now.

I've been on XDA a very long time and this is one place where folks don't tend to be too helpful and get annoyed when the search function is not utilized. Each community is different and here in this forum there is little patience for questions that might have been answered before because it clutters up the forum. Unfortunately answers to questions can be buried on page 98 of a 500 page thread and some people expect newcomers to find that information....
That said, this particular device forum is even less patient than other device communities o XDA I have been a part of. Some good info and helpful people here but the negative folks here will pipe in pretty fast when given an opportunity.

Yep sorry to read that :/
(but thanks for the answer)
I can live with missing SMS, the real pain is that frequent loss of connectivity, I've been trying to search but couldn't find anything useful (since i will not try to root or install some other firmware or rom or whatever, the reason I chose that device is to *keep it simple*, precisely) so I'm afraid I'll have to wait for google good will with a further release, hoping that they don't forget that they also provide their Android One thing on a device called Xiaomi Mi A1...

Amen aikon359! This kind of foul language has no place in forums of this kind. I understand frustration and anger - been there, done that! Subjecting all of us to this kind of tirade is inexcusable and I believe the moderator(s) should yank postings like this immediately.

And i thought that this was a forum that I would recommend to my grandma! Not anymore!
That lovely suggestion has just been thrown into the dustbin of history.
We have hope for some intelligent life forms yet!

Tesla style Head Unit for Captiva GT6-EAU

Hi,
I bought a Head Unit from China via aliexpress from aotsr and there is no after service, no service manual... They expect us to be able to install it like if it was plug and play. It is not.
I am new in this forum and with this device. So I have questions.
There are very little information on these devices. Why or where can I get information? I Know I have a GT6, but on google, I get nothing...
It look like the Head unit is working mostly fine. There are few thing where i need info.
I have a Chevrolet Captiva from 2013.
It look like the air conditioner is showing information, but the key/button on the screen does noting. Same for the option to disable the proximity alert. It look like I missed to wire a cable. But I do not know witch one. Can someone give me a hint?
On the head unit, at the bottom, there are buttons that are working. On the left side of these button, there is a small sign that should light up when seat belt are not fasten. It does not work. Did I missed to wire a cable too?
What does mean those information:
I know MCU means microcontroller unit, but what is it used for? Is it MTCD or MTCB/C?
APP
Panel-Chip
BT

For a Captiva 2013 released in asia (Korea), what "Car Model/AC" should I choose? What does mean the options:
Captiva LO
Captiva MID
Captiva Hi
How to know witch one to select?
How can I upgrade? Where do I find the Upgrade? What is the process?
What are all the options and what do they do?
Bit Depth (8bit or 6bit). How to choose and witch one to choose?
Airbox => what is it? do I have one?
can baudrate => how to know what is the right speed?
reverse with Protocol => What is it?
Original witch AMP => What is this?
Reverse AC controller => I think it is related to the air conditioner in the car. But I do not know what it means.
Google APP => I figure it out => authorize and show the Google Play store.
Encoder air conditioning function => What does it do?
OneKey Install menu => What does it install? and where can I find those apk?
In system menu:
What is "Factory AMP"?
What is "SWC Prev/Next Button Negative"?
What is "SWC Vol UP/Down Negative"?
I know there are many questions in this post, but I am a newbee
Thanks

Bonjour je me demande si tu a eu les réponses à tes question car je suis dans le même cas...
Merci d'avance
Not really.
I just understood it is complicated to do business with Chineese
I got help from an Italian guy who explained me things, but nothing more.
where are you up to in your install?
De mon coté il me manque juste l'affichage et la gestion du chauffage et clim et toi tu es ou?
a tu réussi à avoir le contrôle de la clim?
You will not be able to manage the aircon and heater from the tesla unit. You will only get the information about it.
Have you already done the wire for the display of the aircon info?
if yes, it is just a srtting to change in the system menu were you have to enter the following code 7890.
Oui ok l'affichage c'est suffisant...
De quel câble parle tu? j'ai branché tout ce qu'ils m'ont envoyés
Merci beaucoup pour le code
si tu a des photos du cable ou de ton montage je suis preneur...
Peux tu me prendre une photo de ton tableau de bord pour voir si tu as le même que le mien?

Hi
I have same model and i have same question too
Its working fine But the air conditioner just in preview mode but it’s not a problem I wanna know what the cpu of my head unit and my grand question is can I use the original car mic coz the mic have come with the head unit is poor quality and if not does any one recommend good mic brand thanx
There is a plugg for an external mic. I guess you can plugg any mic you want.
As for me, I use the internal mic of the device. I is better than the previous one that I had.
As for an advice on external mic, I have no idea.
Regards
