Hi,
I'm a flashaholic. I try a lot of ROMs for my phone. But one of my friends shows me that my WhatsApp secure code is very often new.
Is this because of flash new custom ROMs? And if the answer is yes, can I prevent it?
Sorry for the bad English.

Hi guys,
I have been a iPhone user for the past year, so sorry for not being updated.
I ordered a Redmi 2 for a friend. But she complained the phone was too slow, so I asked her to borrow it for some time.
First thing I did was a factory reset. Then installing the most comon apps, facebook, messenger, youtube. nothing more.
So far, appart from the low available RAM at any given time, what's really driving me crazy are pop up ads. They show everywhere, facebook, youtube, messenger. Even in the homescreen.
My first question is.
Are these normal nowadays in Android? I find that hard to believe.
Second question. How can I disable this. I understand in app adds and why they are there. But youtube/facebook/homescreen? The add is pretty much the same almost every time, "Lebara Talk" and shows every time I enter the apps after not using them for like 5 minutes.
Please let me know if there is a way to remove this.
Now on other topic, in case the phone shows itself laggy as she told me, are there better optimized ROMS. Keep in mind this is a non tech-savvy girl using it.
Many thanks
Best Regards
Is it the HM2014811 model with 1GB ram? It probably came with the chinese/global rom which has bloatware. Download the global rom from here: http://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/5-10-15-16.28809/
Just make sure you download the correct version! for example for the HM2014811 it would be: xiaomi.eu_multi_HM2014811_5.10.15_v7-4.4.zip (dev rom).
You have guessed it right. Thanks for helping. Are these ROMS stable? Also, I am going to search for it, but until then, it would be much apreciated if someone could point me to a tutorial on how to install these.
There are 2 versions, Developer rom and Stable.
Developer roms get updated every week, stable every ~3 months. The stable one is based on MIUI V6 and the Dev on MIUI V7 so sometimes various fixes that are installed on latest dev roms take a while to get to the stable. I would recommend the Developer rom for Redmi 2 as it has less/ no issues (people have reported SIM lock issues on the stable version).
You can use this guide: http://en.miui.com/thread-142581-1-1.html to install the rom through recovery. With this method it will wipe all the data/apps of the system.
If you want to save your internal storage/apps you can do a backup with the MIUI app or with Titanium Backup and restore afterwards.
Many thanks for the help. It's a new phone now. how can I mark this as solved?
No need, enjoy!
Hello,

Hi I have same problem I searched and tried a lot of potential solutions without resolve it, the problem come from the rom (all roms based on Note Fe have this problem)
I also contact Snapchat """support"""" (because it was very bad) and I talk with a bot a lot of time always saying that it's my fault if my account is locked (Wow, excelent...)
And recently with a human who send me a copied text who say me that is my fault if my account is locked (so, it's perfect)
So I don't know what phone do you use ?
Hello
I don't know much English so I hope to tell you my problems.
I learned what Custom Rom is from your web site and downloaded this Rom.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-j5/development/rom-viperos-samsung-galaxy-j5-2015-t3893092
İt is very good for me but I cant find some answers.
1. I cant see Sım Card Contacts. İs it normal? I could transfered them to phone with Contacs App but I want to see, change, delete Sim Contacts manuelly.
And when İ downloaded an app it uses phone contact, contacts are being deleted.. İ cant understand this..
2. Rom update menu is not working. Always it says Check the connection Try again later
3. Android 9 has 3 options about lock screen. When you get a message, you cant see the notıfication or see the notification but cant read text and you can see notification and text. But in my menu, I can see 2 options. And I cant get the notifications without text.
4. When the charge finish, it says full but I still see the symbol like it is still charging
İf you help me and write with very simple English, I will be very happy.
Thank you very much.

Nu1- i really don't have any idea
2-this rom is no more available for ota and devs now work on Q (that i heavily prefer you to use that version instead)
3-it's rom dependent..i really didn't ever seen rom that doesn't have this
4-it is just a simple thing and it's not a problem!
Maybe a bug i don't know but i think it's just fine!
Use Android Q bro!
Or just other pie rom

Devs are working on Android 10
And that's why we say there will be no more support or update for that oreo rom
Oreo died!
Use pie or Q roms on here
They are fast and stable

Yes İ have J5 2015 - j500f
İ have parts on my sdcard. But the other roms didnt see these parts. And İ formated card and particioned again but couldnt send data to sd card ex4 after that..
So İ removed that roms. İ only can use Ex4 for sending some app data with this Pie rom. İt works only this rom for me.
İ hope i can tell what İ want to tell in Eng.
Hello everyone,
I have my redmi note 7 with which I've kept using MIUI since I bought it. But now the android system weights for 9 go. I think it is insane for a phone, correct me if I'm wrong.
The phone is slow and when I try to erase everything et reinstall it. The system is faster but the system is still heavy.
Do you think rooting it can help solve the issue ? Or may those 9 go of system be caused by some viruses ?
Thanksnin advance,
soad405

Unlock the bootloader and flash a customer without root. You have a big choice, the most one are very fast and stable
Thank you for your answer.
0) what is the weight of a normal custom system once installed ?
1) Do you mean to flash a rom and still using the original kernel ?
The last time I flashed a system, it was on a Galaxy S2.... Did the things changed ? At that time we had an important risk to brick the phone under gingerbread version of Android (that version had some kind of bug) .
2) Are the risks still high today ?
I looked a bit through the list or roms on xda and the lineageOS seems to come out as the lightest rom.
3) Is there a room that is more stable than the others ?
4) Is there a rom that is kept updated more than the others ?
5) What about the android security updates once a custom rom is installed ?
Sorry that is a lot of questions but I need an update since my galaxy S2
Thanks in advance,

First, when you unlock your bootloader your phone make a factory reset. Then you have the choice which ROM. lingeos, havoc, pixel os are stable and have the last security patch. Then you have the choice with or without gapps (Google apps). In every thread is a how to and the recommend gapps. Orange fox is a very good recovery. And brick risk is small. Sometimes I had a softbrick with testing around kernel and modules, but it easy to fix. Make a backup with the customer recovery before. The weight I don't know in the moment. My daughter change the pattern . In the forum is a old how to unlock and under development is the recovery. You will find it. Have fun

Thank you very much for your answer.
I'll post the comparison of the weight of the system once I'll have installed it.
I have a rooted Snapdragon S8 (done by this method) and I want to install LineageOS (or any other non-samsung android build) onto it.
I have searched far and wide on this form an the internet and I have not been able to find a single custom ROM for the Snapdragon S8. Does anyone know of any of these ROMs that exist?
If they do not exist, would it be possible for me to make one? Is there a tutorial or resource to help me with this? I have a decent amount of experience with rather technical programming on the PC (writing Linux kernel code, etc.) so I would not be walking in completely blind to the topic, however, I have never really messed with android before (besides rooting this phone and a couple of Nexus devices).
I apologize if this is a repeated question, like I said, I couldn't find anything.
Thank you in advance for any and all help!
