I snoozed d la... The notification is showing "snoozed". I'm using stock ROM. Msia version and never did anything to it.

Tried the snooze thingy with my current Mi3 (Latest Dev ROM) & spare Mi3 (Stock MY ROM)
I can confirm that on both ROMs, the snooze "X" are there.


Screenshot 1: Mi3 with Stock MY ROM

Screenshot 2: Mi3 with latest Dev ROM

So it must be something else that caused the "X" not to appear on your phone. Maybe there's a setting that was turned off?

Yes, definitely worth it laugh.gif

normal lar, if people afk data steal, better don't use internet...

why no people complain while google, microsoft, apple steal our info? hmm.gif

Every company takes our data but I think the issues raised in the forums about Xiaomi & Baidu was that they never disclosed anything nor what are their plans with the data.

At least with FB for example, we know they're using it to have targeted ads for more revenue streams.

After using this phone for about 2 weeks, and I noticed that my old phone s3 has a better camera than this. The outcome of snapshots are different. Kinda disappointed since I love taking photos sad.gif but what to do. Can't really have high expectations from a 769 product
*
If you use latest dev rom with kitkat & google camera, you can see a lot of difference.

The problem is in the algorhythm of the camera rather than the hardware itself.
I don't think Xiaomi have a dedicated image departments like Sony or Lumia, hence the mediocre performance on stock camera

That one from spy agencies like NSA, different story already.
I can't remember where source, but even FB & Google also denied these agencies requests for data.

The ones NSA got was illegally done as exposed by Snowden laugh.gif

Wah,  seriously?

Yup..

No more power saving mode.

Either it was intentional & they optimized the balanced power settings to perform as good as power savings mode,or..

They made an error which should be rectified in next week's update

so means need to root for a better cam?

need root to use google camera apk
It will be better than the stock camera, but nothing beats a well written camera algorhythm.

If MIUI V6 *cross fingers* were to come out soon, I guess they should come with a better camera

QUOTE(WaCKy-Angel @ Jul 19 2014, 09:07 PM)
anyone knows how to change the region (without rooting/dev rom) to download region-locked apps like Plants vs Zombies 2 ?

It can be done on Huawei and Lumia phone but not Mi3.
And i dont think its available on Samsung either, last time using S3
*
Without root, cannot use market enabler which I'm using with my Nexus.

Either that, a pirated app which is illegal to discuss here. cool2.gif

Ah no wonder.
Maybe DirectD sourced it from Philippines then. A friend bought there and received Taiwan ROM.
laugh.gif

You can try flashing to MY Stock ROM or International Dev ROM if you feel adventurous brows.gif
Just a theory, maybe certain bugs in Filipino ROMs not compatible to our telco notworthy.gif

Ha?? sound like very technically wor... btw, how to do it? what is the risk? Cause i really noob in this kind of thing... cry.gif

Cons:
You can brick your phone aka useless brick cannot turn on tongue.gif

Pros:
Nowadays, you can only brick if you downloaded wrong ROM (ie: TD version instead of WCDMA).
And MIUI has 2 systems with 1 as a backup. So in case you screw up the 1st one, you can still reboot to System 2.
laugh.gif

A detailed flashing guide is available at MIUI Forum

Should be the same laugh.gif

so is the apps got bug, not because MIUI ?

Weird.

I don't have those problems at all.
But then again, FB kept having so many updates these few weeks.
Can you check what is the version number for FB & Messenger app on your phone?


QUOTE(blacktubi @ Jul 20 2014, 10:56 PM)
Call your friend to ignore that.

Android memory management are different compare to the past.

Agreed.

You can try opening lots of apps until you feel really slow, then you can see what is meant by efficient memory management laugh.gif

Anyone knows what actually MIUI Car Mode does?

Tried googling but can't find actual documentation about it or maybe I missed.

The slightest info I got is that it is a mode that pick up incoming calls and connect the speaker automatically.

Falcon Pro is already pull out from Play Store, so the only way to install it is using .apk right? At moment, if you yourself have no token on Twitter u supposedly unable to login using Falcon Pro. There's a way to solve this but I afraid if it's related to warez or not. If anyone can confirm me if it's ok, I will share the way here.
*
I'm using it with my Nexus.

I don't it is warez as the author himself ranted in his website about twitter phasing out 3rd party twitter apps in favor of their own, hence the limited token.

Since the app is already endorsed by the author, and i never read any article from twitter prohibiting such actions (if any then I apologize), so i guess its okay to share here laugh.gif

Internal storage\MIUI\backup\AllBackup

it is empty...

from the phone built-in explorer apps...it's able to see the backup folder...

anyone experience on this?
*
normal.

It's because of the file structure, it is somewhat encrypted & windows doesn't have permission to read.
If you backup with encryption enabled, more worse, you can't even access the backup folder, got disc icon sweat.gif

Im using google camera. But when taking hdr pic, an error "could not connect to camera" muncul. Do any of u have this problem?
*
It's a bug, some other devices also have.
Because google camera is for nexus devices with vanilla rom, so when you have heavily coded roms like MIUI, bugs bound to happen.

A fix should come sooner or later.

By default no, most ART in custom roms were done by different cooks, too much hassle but doable.
So now Android L is ART by default, but i guess MIUI will only use Android L in like what, next year?

Not sure whether will faster or not.
Coz b4 this i was using S3 on 2A charger and when check the charging current it can only goes up to 1A max.

Need eletronics pro to explain lol
*
Correct.

Phones don't have circuitry to show direction of current per se, but can estimate.
Use Battery Monitor Widget to understand, ie:

1. On idle, can show "+400mA or 0.4A" which means the phone is using 0.4A of juice
2. On charging, can show "-1200mA or 1.2A". It's not really taking in 1.2A, because it already offset the idle current flow. So the amount going in is about 1.6A laugh.gif

Most battery can take in 2A but I suspect it was limited to 1.6A due to heat. During charging, can reach 45 degrees wooo sweat.gif

Hi,

This might sound weird, but after the latest update, I found out that I need to press the screen harder, like it's not that responsive with my usual pressure/swiping on the screen.

Anybody experienced the same problem?

Use *#*#64663#*#* , go to No.11 Touch Sensor, you can calibrate there
Edit: Okay just read your post. Are you doing it while charging?
