    Loose USB port

    ^^ This. I had exactly the same issue and could not see anything obvious by looking into the socket. But as soon as I stuck the end of a small paperclip in I got loads of (tightly-packed) fluff out and cables have been perfect ever since. Try it!!

    New Audio/video sync issues (RTSP)

    With my MI2, I'm finding that some apps which use Android's built-in video streaming (so no option to pick which app to use for playback) end up with audio that is out of sync with the video. The apps that I found this issue with are: - TVCatchup - BT Sports (just launched today) Both use...

    New Skype 3G voice call no audio problem (MI2)

    I am running the latest Skype - 4.0.0.19550 - on my MI2, but it is unable to do audio calls over 3G. I hear some broken bits of audio for a few moments and then nothing. The debug mode states that received packet loss is very high (almost 90%). But streaming of anything else over 3G for me works...

    [2014-07-08] ClockworkMod Recovery 6.0.5.0

    Actually if FUSE is already in use, then why are /data and /storage separate partitions? I find having only 3GB for apps really limiting given the size of many games these days. Could they be combined somehow?

    [2014-07-08] ClockworkMod Recovery 6.0.5.0

    Ah fair enough, well it's not the end of the world I suppose - I do have a dual-booting PC so will use Linux when I need to do large reliable transfers.

    [2014-07-08] ClockworkMod Recovery 6.0.5.0

    I'll try in Linux myself when I get the chance and see if I can spot what's going on. But I don't think this is a driver issue now since Windows can see the drive - it just doesn't recognise the filesystem for some reason? EDIT: I had previously formatted the internal storage using CWM. What...

    [2014-07-08] ClockworkMod Recovery 6.0.5.0

    Still nothing happens I'm afraid. :( I then looked into device manager, where I saw an unknown "MI2" entry (USB\VID_18D1&PID_D001&REV_0228) that Win7 doesn't know what to do with. So I tried to update the driver manually, and chose "USB composite device". This then recognised that there was a...

    [2014-07-08] ClockworkMod Recovery 6.0.5.0

    I don't see why USB-MS wouldn't work on an internal partition... The fact that the ROMs don't support anything but MTP shouldn't restrict what CWM can do. M1cha - could you please look into this? MTP is too unreliable for me so I'd like to transfer files in recovery mode if possible.

    Is MTP always this unreliable?

    Don't always have a local network handy, and FTP seemed considerably slower too when I tried it. Just found a tool called qtADB which looks like it might do the trick (+ more). At least I did win the battle of installing the ADB drivers..

    Is MTP always this unreliable?

    Having always used USB Mass Storage when given the choice before, this is my first time transferring files using MTP since we don't appear to have a choice on the MI2. Now I'm finding this to be very hit-and-miss... I first discovered what appeared to be FAT table corruption on the internal SD...

    Also, can anyone get USB mass storage to work from CWM?

    [2014-07-08] ClockworkMod Recovery 6.0.5.0

    Couldn't find a guide with a quick Google for exactly what I want, can you point me to one? Although the reason I posted this in the CWM thread is that it would be handy if the recovery could set this up.

    [2014-07-08] ClockworkMod Recovery 6.0.5.0

    Any way of combining the /data (or data_root) partition and the rest of the internal SD space (FUSE filesystem perhaps) so that /data is not a fixed 3GB? I'm contemplating installing some big games to give this phone a workout, but at 1.8GB a pop I won't have much room left for other apps in /data!

    In Progress V5 can't select which gmail group to select in contacts

    +1 to this; I would like to only see GMail's "My Contacts" show up and not include "Other Contacts" which tends to be people you have emailed only once and don't care about.

    3.3.8

    "Invalid MIUI Version" instead of the download link in 1st post? Is that something at my end - should I be browsing this from my phone instead of my work computer? EDIT: Links are back now - must've been your end! ;)

    Fake MI2's (Where to buy real ones?)

    Sure did, but sadly have to wait until I get home from work today to play with it... :( DHL are amazing when you track things and see the hours they work on nights and weekends!

    Fake MI2's (Where to buy real ones?)

    Dispatched! :):D:cool: Only took 8 days (6 business days). Now it's up to DHL, but at least they keep going over a weekend so here's hoping for a Monday delivery!

    Fake MI2's (Where to buy real ones?)

    ibuygou.com appear to be swamped at the moment, thanks in no small part to their good reputation - their dispatch time (not delivery time) has gone from 1-4 days to 1-5 days to 2-7 days within the space of a week! I ordered mine a week ago and I'm promised it will be dispatched tomorrow but I'm...
