    Phone Shuts Down Randomly

    I installed Wakelock Detector, but didn't discover anything. So I did a factory reset and started adding apps one by one until I found one that caused the phone to crash. I think the offending app might have been Tumblr. Tumblr and Facebook both seem to cause the battery to drain crazy fast, so...

    Phone Shuts Down Randomly

    My Redmi Note 2 began shutting down randomly a few months ago. I was running MIUI on it then. Switching to Cyanogenmod 12.1 made it run a little better, but the shutting down thing kept happening. Now I have it on MIUI 8 but still, it shuts down whenever it likes to. This is independent on how...

    Bricked Note 2 - Need Help

    This phone was running fine on Cyanogenmod 12. After a while, the battery started draining very fast (less than an hour from fully charged to 15%), and also the phone started shutting down randomly. So I decided to roll the ROM back to MIUI 8. Something happened during the process, and I can...

    Thank You Guys! Your Rom Update Revived My Phones!

    My wife and I have Redmi 1S-TD phones. They started acting funky, especially after the latest official MIUI update. Then they both stopped working entirely. They went into a boot loop. Nothing on the official Xiaomi site or forum would help. Then I found the ROM updates on xiaomi.eu. I...

    Just got my 1S and i think i bricked it, some help please.

Their scope is to recover your bricked device, and to install the rom on a clean environment. (It's like booting and install Windows from...

    Hongmi 1 S, CWM and a fake HM-1

    I bought a Hongmi 1 S and like it. I am new to Xiaomi. Can someone point me to a CWM recovery that will work on this phone so that I can back up the ROM? Also, before I got this phone, I had ordered one from a dishonest seller on Ali Express. Instead of shipping me a genuine Xiaomi Red Rice M1...
