    Thanks, but this is not the problem. TDB was set long ago.

    TDB problem

    I want to have in one partition stable version 14.0 (Singapore) and the other the current multi version (now 4.6.13) with true dual boot. Problem is that when I flash a new version in one partition, and I try to reboot in the other one, after some time, the phone gets into a boot loop. The only...

    Problems with v.5 Email client

    Thanks Michiel. In fact, I tried Touchdown a year ago and I was quite happy, but now I have seen two new protagonists: "Cloudmagic" and "Nine" with glowing reviews. I tried Cloudmagic - it is visually arresting, but is a cloud solution and I cannot allow my mails to be in the open elsewhere...

    Problems with v.5 Email client

    Thanks, se. Unfortunately, MailDroid does not support Activesync, which I must use for connecting. to the Exch. server. Moxier and K9 do, but have so and so reviews...

    Problems with v.5 Email client

    I'm using Exchange, and while the Email app looks similar to the AOSP one it has many issues: 1. Misses functions 2. Has "reply all" instead "reply" with no possibility to change this in options. "Reply" is only a menu option, very inconvenient. 3. Issues with the English ("All readed") 4...

    Downgrade to V4

    M1cha, Your zip loads kernel 3.6.28. Problem is, the reason for downgrading is instability and bugs in v5, and some of them result from the kernel, I suppose. So wouldn't it make sense to use the 3.2.22 kernel as well? Thanks.

    In step 2 do you mean to enable True Dual Boot? Why? Sent from my MI 2 using Tapatalk 2

    Downgrade to V4

    True. V5 is unreliable and would be considered somewhere between alpha and beta by normal standards. Unfortunately, the closed source policy of Xiaomi makes sure that the problems will continue for a long time. In addition there are many baseband issues courtesy of Qualcomm. I should try...

    Downgrade to V4

    Thanks leggy. But can you please post the link to the wiui version - It's all in chinese (which unfortunately I can't read) and seems that nothing happens when I press what seems to be the link. Is the 3.2.22 you linked in anyway different from the usual 3.2.22 ? different kernel ?

    Downgrade to V4

    Hi all, I have multiple issues in the few months with V5, and I an trying to downgrade to V4, preferrably 3.2.22 to check. I understand that the 5-to-4 downgrade is problematic and I follow the instructions from here: http://en.miui.com/thread-3319-1-1.html However, I can flash JLB3, JLB7...

    No answer to ARP when screen off

    I have the same problem as with the Nexus 4 (not a surprise). Wifi is set to run always. After the screen is off I can ping the phone for some time since the MAC of the phone is still in the cache of the PC. If I wait for one-two minutes and check that the phone MAC was erased (or erase...

    Terrible battery life :(

    When you compare it is also useful to put the phone in the same place. I noticed that the phone consumes twice as much when I keep it in my pocket at home than on he table. Could be the reception changes or could be that the sensors (accel, Gyro, mag) interrupt the main processor frequently.

    Dialer codes for cellular network frequencies

    He means Service Mode, like *#2263# 0r *#0011# for Samsung, where one can define and view low level stuff. If there is no or intermittent cellular coverage, the MI2 consumes 12%/h. This looks like a bug. Are there alternative radios for the device ?

    Terrible battery life :(

    I'm using HotMobile (it's 3G only). Normal mode, miui 3.1.25, 4 push accounts, battery use < 2%/hour in idle mode. With Wifi on it is 1-1.5%/hour. So screen off time is OK. I also measured with Battery Monitor Widget and the usage was about 50 ma (can't remember 3G or Wifi)
