    Broken Usb Connector

    I think you are not the only one to have that problem. I'm sure its on the forums somewhere. IIRC it was a rubber cover that was not seated properly. The cover in question is, you guessed it, right against the glass. So you need to remove everything again. Hang in there, I'm sure you'll get it...

    Broken Usb Connector

    Most likely its the ribbon cable that isn't seated properly. I'd open it up and check the cables for breakage and proper seating. Maybe also check if the rubber seals are in their proper place. They might get in the way if pinched.

    Broken Usb Connector

    FYI I just replaced the USB port in my MI2s and it was a B17ch! I say 45 Euros is a great price, especially if you can be sure the person doing it will replace the mobo if he or she ends up frying it. I got the job done but it isn't pretty. You need a temperature controlled soldering station...

    Maybe you can extract the .apk from an update.zip?

    Random reboots; Dropbox found guilty. What to do about it?

    I went back to stock via the fastboot method just to be 100% sure, but the problems persist. I'm now in contact with the help desk in the hopes of getting a replacement.

    Random reboots; Dropbox found guilty. What to do about it?

    The phone is new and I have enough backups, don't worry. I'd rather start fresh anyway. I'll flash the fastboot stable version (V5) JLB49.0 then. Just to be sure there is not also a hardware issue involved.

    Random reboots; Dropbox found guilty. What to do about it?

    DARN. still messed up. The dropbox stuff from the system appears to be used to upload bugreports to somewhere.... The bugreports are from all sorts of stuff so I'll clear them up one by one or maybe just revert the system to stock Chinese / English. Not sure what I'll do now.

    Random reboots; Dropbox found guilty. What to do about it?

    I noticed that removing my dropbox app did not fix it. I have now also removed a dropbox from the system using root explorer and rebooted. So far so good, but now I'm testing if this was the definitive fix for me!

    Random reboots; Dropbox found guilty. What to do about it?

    So, I just found out that maybe I don't have to send my phone back to China after all.. Man I have tried everything and just discovered that Dropbox was causing random reboots. I'm running build: Xiaomi/aries/aries:4.4.4/KTU84P/5.1.30 I used adb bugreport to get a log and combed it through...

    MULTI 5.1.30

    OK. I found it. Might just get this done before my lunch time is over (wouldn't want it to become lynch time ;-) I missed the link to the actual multi language pack. I thought the updater would pick it up by itself. Now I get it.

    MULTI 5.1.30

    I flashed this from Linux using the flash_all.sh script in the download. The info screen says it is miui version 5.1.30. I also tried booting from system1, but that brings me back to the initial version I downloaded. Then I updated it using the mi updater app. But I can only see Chinese (two...

    Why don't have micro sd slot??

    I edited my post above with some additional info, you may have missed that when you typed your answer; sorry. Its probably an assumption by some marketing firm that a significant number of Windows users are too dumb to understand the concept of formatting a card... I think it can't be that bad...
