    60/120 1080p fps video recording?

    You need the Magisk Camera2API module installed, then get Snap Camera HDR and follow the settings in the screenshots. I get the most crisp 1080p120 footage of any phone I've seen due to the much higher bitrate. This app is also probably the best photo/video app on the market because it's so...

    CPU all cores always on

    It is perfectly normal and pretty much how all CPUs from the last 3 years have functioned, if you're draining battery fast, it's probably a rogue app or a setting you have draining the battery. I get 5h screen on time over 48h or about 7-8 hours after like a 14-15h day. Around half lte, half...

    Mi5s Plus Unlocking Problems

    MIUI 9 7.8.24

    Charge Time Tripled

    Terrible Audio Quality

    Well the DAC in our phone is actually amazing. The S820/821 Aqstic sound processor is really good and the HTC10 really proves it. Running HalogenOS from XDA gave me amazing sound quality, a lot better than MIUI, even better than my OnePlus. I'll definitely try that mod though see how it fares

    Terrible Audio Quality

    So like many have heard, on stock MIUI ROMs, audio quality on this phone is quite bad. This is resolved by flashing AOSP/LineageOS based ROMs over at XDA. Problem is that the ROMs aren't as stable as MIUI. Has anyone looked into why MIUI ROMs have such terribad audio quality? I really want to...
