I can't sync tuga with my google account. keep asking me to update sign in details. Anyone facing the same problem?
*
No problem here. Go to settings and look at your google account. Check whether tuga is there or not.

Yea just checked in the google account settings, tuga sync is ticked and synced.... But in app tuga setting it's not synced... It's easy to know cuz all my chrome bookmarks, login passwords and browse history aren't in tuga.

might not be a problem for u becuz you have used tuga for sometime and u have all ur browse history on it already.

not a big deal anyway, just that I like all things to be synced, makes life easier lol

not sure about you bro. mine is synced laugh.gif

by far rr 6.0 custom rom far more stable compared to others, aside from weird earphone jack bug (need plug fast)
other wise it's stable and smooth.
*
Yup, it is the most stable but im back using miui because of that earphone jack bug lol. If bored with miui can change back to that rom laugh.gif

QUOTE(kuance @ Jul 26 2016, 09:53 AM)
Can give a bit review compare to MIUI 7/8 ?? Battery performance(concern especially the idle drain), daily driver?, bug if any you notice, and so on... I would like to hear from your point of view...
*
Battery is more or less the same. I got 7 hours sot when it is 40%. In miui also the same. Apart from the earphone jack bug the sound volume is lower than miui. Overnight drain is about 1% or 2%. I only sync contact so yours may vary.

That is insane with overnight at 1 or 2% how did u do that? I cant even do that with my phone on day 1 of unboxing. Can you tell me your setting or something? I have no games nor any sh*t running on my phone. Clean, a browser, whatsapp, not even wechat, facebook, facebook messenger, instagram, and basically thats all for my apps. All the apps is under "Mi battery optimization" setting, and only Whatsapp is set to "no restriction". My overnight drain is about 6-8% ....
*
My wifi is on for 24 hours so im using 2g. I uninstalled the preinstall app such as fb. Disable most of the google apps that i dont use such as chrome drive play music maps and turn off google location.

imo, mobile signal can greatly affect the battery life. in poor reception area, i can lose about 1 to 2 hours sot.

true... I think i might try 2g since about 90% of my day is on wifi. Currently on 4G. I'll try it then. As for the bloatware that comes with MIUI8 china dev, I deleted some but do not dare to use root to clear the other. I've tried once, and weird enuf that my whatsapp no longer push notification (checked all restriction/autostart/etc) push notification for whatsapp just DONT works. And it's not only happened once. I tried a few times, the moment I delete those bloatware like Mi home, Mi Pass, Browser, Mi wallet, Suguo Keyboard, bla bla bla.... then push notification decide to stop to work. Damn.... I just gonna go for the global version of MIUI 8 soon i guess.

Oh ya, no one answer me yet, MIUI 8 china dev, officially unlocked, supersu rooted,custom kernal, will i still get OTA?
*
I dont disable mi home. I only disable things that i think wont cause problem laugh.gif . i think china dev got more bloatware compared to global stable. I dont have mi pass and wallet. Can get ota but need to download full rom i think

Hahaha, defeat the purpose of OTA if i need to get full rom and manually flash it with the mi flash tool. sad.gif
*
no need to flash using mi flash. just flash using twrp. ota only works with stock recovery if im not mistaken. so if using twrp need to download full rom. no need to wipe. just dirty flash and only wipe cache.

One thing disappoint me is the MIUI 8 for Redmi Note 3 Qualcomm would be only Android 5.1.1, same for Redmi Note 2 MIUI 8, will be only Android 5.0. Redmi Note MIUI 8 also stuck on Android 4.4 only.

I think this only happen on Redmi device.
The Mi3, Mi4, and Mi Note all get Android 6.0 already even in MIUI 7.

This is the fate of Redmi device.
*
Yup, they focus on mi lineup. But we will get marshmallow eventually. It is just that we dont know when laugh.gif

There is a leaked version. So we just need to wait

+1 , but if a user (such as my wife and most of my kawan) using fb, instagram, whatsapp n etc, battery life is "ok" for 4k battery sweat.gif 4-5 hours sot as those apps are power hunger apps.
*
lol. those apps are power hunger with all that push notifications. my usage are watching youtube about 1 hour, whatsapp all day, clash royale for 2 3 matches and web browsing. can get around 6 hours sot. then i charge my phone. i never drain the battery below 20% laugh.gif

imo, those user mostly doing bussiness or have need to have push/instant notification.

some kawan solving it either bring power bank (mcm biasa) or switch to smart phone that higher capacity battery (zenfone max/note 4+zerolemon n etc...

My friend always bring powerbank. Especially girl using iphone laugh.gif

mine is [Vendor]Atmel ? is this gt any problem to flash to CM13 ?

If im not mistaken only goodix will got problem with fingerprint. Because less people are having that sensor. Mine is focaltech. RR official rom is very stable for me. No camera fix no flashing radio.zip. maybe because i never tried cm13 santhosh rom or im just lucky laugh.gif
Santhosh rom is using marshmallow bootloader. Thats why some of them got problem when switching to other rom.

The RR that u use is based on Android M?

Oh ya, for custom ROM installation, i need to flash gapp too. anyone know link to get the gapp? because in CM13 thread, it require to flash one, but no link provided.... search all over the thread also cannot find. isshhh
*
Yup, based on android M. He is using the same source from cm13 by thestrix. It does not have mm bootloader. So you can flash to miui back without any problem

Im using opengapps nano. Make sure to choose arm64

Go to about phone and keep on taping kernel version. Then go to software version. Look at TP version.

I hold back for trying out RR because of the reported audio volume is low, and there are some earphone bug or something. But in CM13, the most heard of bug is the 4G bug, which they cant get to use 4G, only 3g, which in this case doesnt  bother me much... lol. since im focaltech, im safe to try i believe.
*
Cm13 has not been updated for a while. There are some bug such as battery will drop by 2% but i doesnt affect battery life. Only error with the %. The other bug is your phone will reboot if you launch camera from the lockscreen. If you want latest version. Flash umang96's cm13. He compiled the latest version. All the roms are basically sharing the same bug because compiled from the same source

Does tuga crash on your phone when you press recently closed and saved offline tabs on the new tab screen? I can't access those 2 tabs. The entire browser just closed down.

No problem here

Haha, I'm holding back to flash cm13 from santosh as well. Probably just stick to MIUI official rom and follow the OTA, since the stable MIUI8 is coming soon. So I guess, i'll just stick around and dont mess up too much with my OS.

Rather, i mess a lot with apps, looking for best apps. there's a lot of common apps that we "must have". But problem is that Im bored with it. So i wanna get to find some hidden gem. TUGA recommened in this thread is a bless... hahaha
*
yup, will be sticking to miui for now
smoothness/scrolling is about the same as cm13. only ram management is worse than cm13

Malaysian official set.
So should be global rom.

I follow one of the tips and tricks thread on mi forum but still it says different Id on phone and miunlock tool.

Getting the unlock permission is fast but at this stage always stuck at 50% like many complain in the mi forum.

flash china dev rom. mine will always stuck at 50% if using global rom

I just received the Unlock bootloader permission SMS.

I am now on Global Stable ROM.

Can I unlock it straight or will I hv to flash to China rom stable then China Rom dev first before unlock?

If I need to flash over to China rom first before unlock then after unlock if I revert back to Global Rom, is my bootloader still remain unlock?

My ultimate goal is to stay with Global Rom, with unlocked bootloader, rooted and TWRP on my phone while running on Global Stable rom.

With this configuration, I believe I can no longer update using OTA right? I will have to flash .zip to update right?

What is I unlock the bootloader, root the phone but using original Mi recovery, will I still be able to update via OTA?

Many thanks.
*
yes. if it doesnt work, flash to china dev.

you can temporarily boot into twrp using fastboot command and flash supersu but i doubt incremental ota will still work. because the system has been modified.
