Anyone know if I can "dirty flash" RC11 safely over RC10.2, or if I need to do a backup/wipe/clean install/restore instead? Thanks in advance.

Hmm... I haven't found that to be the case. If I leave data turned on, then Cell Standby is far and away the biggest reported battery drain on my phone, even if I spend most of my day with my phone on Wi-Fi. But if I turn off data whenever connected to Wi-Fi, then the actual battery life appears...

After upgrading to CM12.1 on this phone, I've been really happy with its look-and-feel and features, but then I stumbled on two issues which I've discovered are common complaints about Lollipop. One is sometimes referred to as the Mobile Radio Active battery drain bug, and another is that after...

Thanks for the quick response. Much appreciated.

I'm using RC10.2. It is quite a change in experience after using Ivan's AOSP 4.4.4 for years, but I'm settling in happily. I've noticed that the camera which is opened from a secure lock screen (that is, one that's secured with a PIN, for example) is different than the camera which is opened...

@M1cha I've just switched over to this ROM and like it a lot, but am running into two problems which I suppose may be interrelated: first, the phone sometimes fails to go into Deep Sleep consistently because of kernel wakelocks from msm_otg; a reboot typically "fixes" this issue temporarily, but...

This would sound plausible, except that Android doesn't build under Windows... :-)

@grondinm, any chance you would consider adding the following to the updater-script for this ROM to clean out the duplicate sounds? I've created my own CWM update.zip to do just this, but if you included it in yours, then that would be one less step for me and a slightly more elegant ROM for...

It's not just you -- I wound up trying out various things I saw on XDA until I finally succeeded by using a flashable zip that I got from here. Hope that helps.

Fair enough, I just did that. But the next time I flash a newer version of this ROM, I'll need to do it again. So I thought maybe it would not be too much to suggest these be removed as part of the build of the ROM instead. :-) That's not unreasonable, right?

I've noticed a bug that's probably upstream AOSP, but I wonder if it's possible to fix or worth addressing somehow: duplicate ringtone and notification sounds. In /system/media/audio, there are near-duplicates of several files; they differ in upper-lower case, but also in file size, but seem to...

Thanks so much for this ROM -- it's exactly what I've been hoping for, since the official QDT14 build had issues that were dealbreakers for me on my MI2S. I've only had yours installed since yesterday, but I'm confident this will be just right for me! For what it's worth, I'm supportive of...

I can only say that I haven't seen this problem (I have AOSP on System 1, MIUIAndroid on System 2), so I think whatever you're seeing is probably not a universal bug...

Hmm... after some precautionary searching on Google, I discovered that ADM's "Erase Phone" feature assumes a standard recovery partition. Given that Xiaomi's isn't standard, I suspect that it won't work with Xiaomi phones (at least for now). In my case, I've got CWM Recovery installed on my...

Hmm... ok, if I have time tonight, I'll try to do a full backup and see if I can make ADM's erase functionality work. Out of curiosity, have you tried to do this using Xiaomi's built-in MiCloud functionality?

And you also checked the appropriate box in Google Settings? (Note that I'm asking the obvious -- I haven't actually tried to do this myself, so it's possible that there's an incompatibility between MIUI and ADM, I suppose).

Have you given ADM permission to do so? You need to give permissions to ADM under Settings -> Security & Privacy -> Device administrators.

I don't know about others, but I've experienced the following issues so far: Auto Backlight (brightness) gets turned off when I start the (MIUI) camera app. When the phone goes to sleep, it becomes unresponsive to pings over WiFi even though the battery history says it was on. The practical...

I know this has been mentioned in other threads, including one specific to WhatsApp, but the workaround there simply fails to address the underlying issue: when apps include a preference to choose notifications from all available ringtones (inc. notification ringtones), then MIUIv5 shows a...

I think I've found a bug in this ROM. I have brightness set to Auto, but when I open up the MIUI camera, the backlight/brightness is changed so that it's no longer set to Auto. Can this be fixed somehow?
