    MIUI 10 9.5.9

    Actually I had something similar om my Mix1 just after flashing the ROM. It was wandering back and forth quickly for no particular reason. Trying to set it with the pulldown slider didn't help. I then went into Settings/Display/Brightness and fiddled with the slider there, and after that it...

    Xiaomi AI vs Google Voice

    Nice find, had missed that. Now rumour has it that Google is leading the AI assistant wars, over Cortana, Alexa, Siri, are there others? Google handles over 70 languages in its Live Transcribe app alone, under development for hearing impaired. Thereof 3 that appear to be some Chinese dialects...

    New Mi Account/Devices not working

    I have been experimenting with DNS, but only in the old Max1 so far. When Firefox had their problems recently, I installed the Bromite browser, and in it ran across the 1.1.1.1 DNS resolver that Cloudflare is running, and then this: https://blog.cloudflare.com/1111-warp-better-vpn/ Haven't...

    New Mi Account/Devices not working

    The original bug I posted about in this thread seems to have been a Xiaomi server problem, as the "Device" function started working suddenly yesterday at the same time in my Mi Note 2, where I haven't changed anything. The hosts file problem seems to only affect activating new numbers, not...

    New Mi Account/Devices not working

    This was all a hosts file problem. I put the new simcard in the old Max1, and everything worked directly, even though it only got 3G, lacking LTE band 8. Then I put it back in the Mix1, and it didn't work still. When I was trying some various things with the Mi Home app, which would work...

    New Mi Account/Devices not working

    I have the simcard in slot 1, I can try it in slot 2. The Mi Account is bound to my Telia number, which is in the Mi Note 2. The Mi Note 2 is again acting strangly, Mi Cloud will sync everything except messages and call history. For messages it wants me to "reactivate simcard", but when I push...

    New Mi Account/Devices not working

    Tried through wifi from my Telia account, the one my Mi account is registered to, same result. Don't have any other internet out here just now. My other phones are now syncing normally with MI Cloud. So it does seem to be a bug. Will try rebooting, and if that doesn't help, try putting the...

    New Mi Account/Devices not working

    Yes. I just put in my new simcard in the Mix1, and I get even VoLTE, but I can't activate the new number in MI Cloud, complains: "MI cloud: can't connect to network" Don't know if this is a temporary problem with Xiaomis servers, or related to the bug in this thread. In my phone with my...

    MIUI 10 9.5.9

    I don't have a Mi9, but "DC dimming" means "Direct Current dimming", which is a flicker-free way to reduce the screen intensity. Easier on the eyes, if it works.

    New Mi Account/Devices not working

    Of course not, lots of things are not done daily. Like "Find my phone". But it's nice when you've sold a phone and forgotten to remove it from your Mi account.

    MIUI 10 9.5.9

    Reboot, several times. Then wait an hour or so. This is normal after a new rom, takes a little time.

    New Mi Account/Devices not working

    Not working in Mix1 EU 9.5.9. This is of course a minor bug, but it is very convenient when you need to remotely remove a device from your Mi account.

    MIUI 10 9.5.9

    Mix 1 lithium seems to running ok, only have not yet tested with a simcard. Will do that later with a new simcard (Tele2) I want to test in all devices anyway. Baseband version has changed again. Would like to know why and what, but that is not possible I suppose. Still no security patch...

    How to flash original bootloader?

    I can't see in your picture that you have a directory/folder after extracting. In the top level of the directory/folder you should find the file flash_all.bat.

    How to flash original bootloader?

    Have you really unpacked/extracted the fastboot rom? The .tgz file which you download has to be unpacked.

    MIUI 10 9.4.25/26

    There is a jungle of TWRPs for Mi8. Are you sure you have a TWRP that functions with encryption? Same problem for several devices.

    Facebook root backdoor in Xiaomi-Service-Framework module

    Perhaps not related, but a peculiar thing happened when connecting to the free internet on a ferry just now. I got "connection refused" on my Mi Note 2 with a newer version hosts file, while it connected normally on my Max1 with an older version hosts file. Changing the hosts file on the Mi...

    Works fine on mine Error 7 is a TWRP error if I recall correctly? Do you have the latest official TWRP 3.3.0?

    Preventing my apps from using data?

    Yes, mail can use a lot of data (and battery) if you sync several accounts, especially ones with lots of mail and far back in time. Otherwise cloud backups of various things can use enormous amounts of data, including Mi cloud backup & sync.

    Preventing my apps from using data?

    I assume you have checked which apps might be guilty in: Settings/Data usage Google has an app for this, have never tried it: Datally: data saving app by Google https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.freighter If this doesn't find the problem, you can install...
