How do i know Mi A1 got quick charge or not. Tried use my Samsung Fast Charge and normal charger both show "charging rapidly".

On my Redmi 3S show QuickCharge logo when use Samsung Fast Charger.

actually oreo update just show charging rapidly/slowly depending on AC or USB charging.
there is really no qualcomm quick charging implemented.

so no point of buying new charger.

I just realise that we must use combo security like :

Finger print + pin
FP + pattern
FP + password

To unlock or wake up the phone from screen off.  Is there a way we can just use Finger print only like Miui ?
*
that is only for setup and removal of FP.
to wake up phone just use FP will do.

I always set my GPS on "Device Only" setting, so far only had GPS issue once, fixed with reboot.

perhaps those with issue, try set to device only, and put the phone high at the dashboard. on my exora if on my lap gps would be disconnected, but at the air-cond vent, it connect just fine

if you need android one upgrade, I think it should be Zenfone Max Pro M1 or Nokia if camera is important.

I'm quite dissapointed with MiA2 price. With that price, can get Oneplus 5 already, which is far better specced ...

mia2 should be just in 1-1.2 range.

EUR250 = RM1200 mang. What do you mean high? If price is a concern, then wait 6 month, surely drop below RM1k.

was referring to 6gb/128gb model. 350eur / 1600myr. this price can get decent phones with sd835 + ufs storage. mi mix2 perhaps ...

Hi guys,

Has anyone here actually gotten their GPS module fixed or replaced by Xiaomi M'sia due to the regular GPS error and
outage issues? I'm pushing my case here in JB with their service centre and I'm only hearing the usual "it's like that
one la" excuse from them. It has gotten a bit better after the Oreo 8.1 update but it still has a habit of failing when I
need to use it the most. Other than that, it's been a pretty fantastic work phone plus the headphone audio output has
been better than any of my Nexus devices and 1st gen Pixel XL ...

Cheers,
VaN.

There is no such thing as replaceable GPS module.

The GPS problems should be checked by checking the antenna and connector to the antenna. If both is OK, then check the board especially the GPS chip.

If under warranty this means replacing the whole mainboard. Of course the service center would be reluctant.

I know some people purposely kill their board so they would get replacement under warranty. However, please note replacement parts are serviced/recertified/used parts, so depends on your luck you might even get more defective replacement.

Hi guys, recently I'm unable to update to September 2018 via OTA and it gives a red text feedback of "Installation Problem" in my partition B. My latest partition A and currently using is OPM1.171019.026.V9.6.5.0.ODHMIFE

September update is

and the Fastboot image here.

choose the prefix by F

I guess the reason is that when I updated my last V9.6.5.0 and did not uninstall Magisk properly.

To specifically flash into partition A I extract and use fastboot to flash as follows. Note that I extract the images into C:\flashing\8.1\

Just open the cmd in fastboot folder and paste the following. Note that this code includes flash to partition A, if you don't want that, just don't paste that inside! At least your Partition A is safe and you can still boot into partition A

CODE

fastboot flash sbl1 C:\flashing\8.1\sbl1.img || @ECHO "Flash sbl1 error" && exit /B 1
fastboot flash sbl1bak C:\flashing\8.1\sbl1.img || @ECHO "Flash sbl1bak error" && exit /B 1
fastboot flash rpm C:\flashing\8.1\rpm.img || @ECHO "Flash rpm error" && exit /B 1
fastboot flash rpmbak C:\flashing\8.1\rpm.img || @ECHO "Flash rpmbak error" && exit /B 1
fastboot flash tz C:\flashing\8.1\tz.img || @ECHO "Flash tz error" && exit /B 1
fastboot flash tzbak C:\flashing\8.1\tz.img || @ECHO "Flash tzbak error" && exit /B 1
fastboot flash devcfg C:\flashing\8.1\devcfg.img || @ECHO "Flash devcfg error" && exit /B 1
fastboot flash devcfgbak C:\flashing\8.1\devcfg.img || @ECHO "Flash devcfgbak error" && exit /B 1
fastboot flash dsp C:\flashing\8.1\dsp.img || @ECHO "Flash dsp error" && exit /B 1
fastboot flash aboot C:\flashing\8.1\aboot.img || @ECHO "Flash aboot error" && exit /B 1
fastboot flash abootbak C:\flashing\8.1\aboot.img || @ECHO "Flash abootbak error" && exit /B 1
fastboot flash lksecapp C:\flashing\8.1\lksecapp.img || @ECHO "Flash lksecapp error" && exit /B 1
fastboot flash lksecappbak C:\flashing\8.1\lksecapp.img || @ECHO "Flash lksecappbak error" && exit /B 1
fastboot flash cmnlib C:\flashing\8.1\cmnlib.img || @ECHO "Flash cmnlib error" && exit /B 1
fastboot flash cmnlibbak C:\flashing\8.1\cmnlib.img || @ECHO "Flash cmnlibbak error" && exit /B 1
fastboot flash cmnlib64 C:\flashing\8.1\cmnlib64.img || @ECHO "Flash cmnlib64 error" && exit /B 1
fastboot flash cmnlib64bak C:\flashing\8.1\cmnlib64.img || @ECHO "Flash cmnlib64bak error" && exit /B 1
fastboot flash keymaster C:\flashing\8.1\keymaster.img || @ECHO "Flash keymaster error" && exit /B 1
fastboot flash keymasterbak C:\flashing\8.1\keymaster.img || @ECHO "Flash keymasterbak error" && exit /B 1

fastboot flash modem_b C:\flashing\8.1\modem.img || @ECHO "Flash modem_b error" && exit /B 1
fastboot flash system_b C:\flashing\8.1\system.img || @ECHO "Flash system_a error" && exit /B 1
fastboot flash modem_a C:\flashing\8.1\modem.img || @ECHO "Flash modem_a error" && exit /B 1
fastboot flash boot_a C:\flashing\8.1\boot.img || @ECHO "Flash boot_a error" && exit /B 1
fastboot flash system_a C:\flashing\8.1\system.img || @ECHO "Flash system_a error" && exit /B 1


use the following command to switch partition

CODE

fastboot set_active b


use the following command to reboot the device

CODE

fastboot reboot

cool commands, thanks. I don't know we can do if-else via batch file tongue.gif

`fastboot set_active _b` I think need the underscore before B

Those on Pie had received 72MB updates few days ago. I'm surprised some are still on Oreo.

On Pie my unit have GPS disconnection issue if battery saving is activated. Turn off battery saving then GPS is smooth.
