Whenever I try to play a movie that I have previously purchased in the Google Play Movies app I get the message 'Playback isn't supported on this device'. When I try to download it to the phone, I get 'Couldn't fetch license (error -1)'. I am however able to play the movie on TV via chromecast.
I have done a bit of searching around and one proposed solution is to play the movies in Youtube. I can indeed see my purchases in Youtube but when I try to play it says 'this video is not playable on this device'.
My previous phone is a Huawei P9 and it all worked fine. This is my first Xiaomi phone. I am on Chinese stock rom.
Any suggestions please?
Do you have root enabled? It sounds like Google Play Movies is detecting a rooted phone.

No, not rooted and bootloader not unlocked. All stock.
Got the same issue. Not rooted or anything. Stock Chinese ROM.

The only thing that worked for me was installing en.miui Rom or Xiaomi.eu Rom . Both are working .
I'm hoping to install EU ROM, waiting for bootloader unlock approval.

How long have you waited? I'm on my 30th hour just about. Seen them say up to ten days I think I saw in a fresh thread over at the MIUI forums recently. Even though according to the instructions, they have improved on response time. Sure I can wait, but I have just created my mi account. Read that seasoned and active users gets first dibs. Would just be awful to wait a week and then get turned down. By the second "inning" my application text would probably be in all caps:silly:

Yes , en.miui Developer rom has better performance (in my case or opinión) but i had problems with bluetooth that didn´t happen on China Developer rom.
The unlock process takes a while, but if it takes longer than 10 days you can make a thread asking to unlock yours in the forums here : http://en.miui.com/forum-64-1.html
Check out the stickies there first before posting though, you need to use a "template" to make your thread

I finally got an unlock code last night after waiting for 2 days. But if my hing was my phone came unlocked lol. Stupid me didn't check until a day later after reading someone mentioning that the phone might be unlocked from the seller so I checked and it was.
I would recommend you do a unlock check via command line (CMD on Windows) first before assuming. Google "how to check if my phone is unlock" to get the exact command. It might save you some time from waiting and it only takes a few mins to find out.

Hey guys, do any of you know if we have root already for this version for Note5?
I found this the other day:
http://apk.tw/thread-706898-1-1.html
But... I don't speak Chinese and I don't know that website so I'm not risking it. Would love to get a root on my HK SM-N9200 as well.

Thanks bro. I don't think I will risk it either. There are also no comments there that confirm that it works...
At the moment I don't have a real reason to root, but i'm sure I'll need it in the future. Hopefully we will have it soon.
Good luck!

Since you have the N9200 as well, could you do me a massive favor? I'm really dissatisfied with the scrolling behavior on mine. I've made a thread about it in the General section.
Could you let me know what software version you are on? Have updated to the latest one (N9200ZHU1AOI1)? But most importantly: do you notice stuttering behaviour in scrolling through apps like Google Play store, Youtube, Facebook etc...?
You can capture the behavior by following the steps described in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/note5/general/note-5-scrolling-behaviour-t3195672.

No problem, I'll try to get to it as soon as I get home, Going to Uni now.
Though I must say that I dont really use those apps because I live In china. If I use them I have to open Astrill VPN. I just Tried it with facebook, and it seems pretty smooth, except when it loads new content because of Chinas great firewall.
(Im also on the new version, but today I tried the "Package debloat" app from the Q&A section and disabled 150 or so apps)
So does anyone found any clue for N9200 root (OI1 firm) ???
Still no :\
@Seven Winds @tisfo @Willyman just got my device, im on it.
got twrp so far..
roots next..
then arter's kernel with dual sim intact..
Edit:
current progress and planned
unlock bootloader
install twrp
backup everything
reboot
notice GAPPS get removed when you unlock
verify my knox container still works (says KNOX has been locked contact your IT admin need to change lock type)
flash stock n9200 kernel with ',verify' removed (aka allows system to be mounted and modified, without this change a kernel cant boot a rooted system)
reboot and verify knox container still works (same message)
flash gapps reboot and verify
flashing back gapps didnt restore everything i was missing (looked like every app i downloaded from play store was also removed), so i reflashed the stock system i pulled out of odin tarball
restoring data
Damn im glad I backedup everything as soon as I got recovery, first boot after unlocked BTloader, it was next reboot that it deleted all my data ( so after reinstalling stock system and restoring my data, everything is back to how it was)
*** im here ***
twrp su root
reboot and verify knox container still works
flash arter kernel that I merged n9200 sources for dual sim support
reboot and test
(ii know knox wont work with any other customer kernel (i really want knox workspace with custom roms and plan on making it work)
Thank you gundal for your hard work!
I am using n9200 HK version. And I rooted my note 5 already!
Thanks for my friend in China, he helped me a lot and everything works fine.
I also installed xposed framework in my note 5.
Can you please share links to the files you've used? I tried to install twrp via Odin and I'm getting error RQT_Close and the phone writes something in chinese in the download mode.
Any customer ROM for dual sim yet?

Hi.
The earpiece is behind the screen. In fact is a piezoelectric "speaker" that makes the whole screen vibrate.
Whe you put the phone in contact with your ear, you can hear everything clearly enough.
Quality-wise is not the best sounding earpiece I've ever had, but certainly not worst. So not bad solution at all.
My personal observation is the developer ROM has considerably diminished "speaker" quality over the Chinese stable. I found this from talking on the stable ROM, maybe an hour or so on multiple domestic calls (USA). I flashed the developer ROM (because, apparently I get board easily), but after a couple of calls, about 10% of that I had planed, my ears were absolutely drained from the experience and I was continually repeating myself because my caller had difficulty comprehending my words, even though they were of the everyday variety. Upon returning to the stale ROM, all was good with hearing and speaking, including several calls to the some of the same people I had conversations with on each iteration. (stable/developer/stable).
I don't have "permission" to root yet, so haven't tried the eu ROM.
This, just in case someone would like to know some of the hidden differences in the ROMs.

I got the bootloader unlock sms . I would like to ask if it expires after a certain amount of time if not used?
Does an unlocked bootloader means no OTA updates for untouched CN stable/dev ROM devices?

Yes, the unlock permission expires after a month. You can always revert back to stable MiUi whether your BL is locked or unlocked. You just gotta flash the global stable update.

My unlocked device will be bound to my MIUI account somehow? If I choose to revert back to CN official stable, will my BL be locked again, and unrooted with OTA updates possible?

Welcome always! Also, if you revert to global stable, your unlocked state will be maintained along with the granted root access. Because the bootloader and root access are core files or what you'd call as components of the phone's firmware. So, flashing MiUi won't affect the firmware files. To be honest, I've never tried it so you might be doing this at your own risk, but I had a Redmi 2 and I did exactly what I told you to do. It worked perfectly for me as the redmi 2 had an unlocked BL out of the box. But this whole 'Unlock the bootloader' thingy started from the Redmi Note 3. So just be careful while doing this.

I think this is not quite right, as I read the Unlock thread on the MIUI site, you can only unlock one device per month. I didn't see anything that leads me to believe the permission itself expires. As a matter of fact @underlines shared that he obtained unlock permission a few years ago for another Xiaomi phone and that he was able to unlock other phones without needing to request permission again.

Hi there!
I previously told you that OTA's won't tamper with the firmware files, but while I was browsing out on some Mi forums, it seems that the explanation I gave is wrong ( for the locked devices). The OTA's try to relock the bootloader and may hardbrick the device. So, please be careful while doing anything because the Mi Mix doesn't come at a small price and plus it is a limited edition concept device.

Hello, I wan't to flash my phone. But I don't know how to determine for which market my device was. Can I flash eu rom for if I suddenly have china version, or it may bring to a bootloop?
My phone is the non-Tmobile version.
Simply VPN through Germany via your favorite VPN (I did mine through psiphon pro - Turbo VPN should work too) and BAAM!!!
Thanks ! Used Private Internet Access and it updated aswell.
It worked.. But i cant unfortunately..
Im rooted and dont want to loose everything..
Hmmm I tried a couple but without any luck... wondering if I'm doing something wrong. I have a global version completely stock. Any suggestions would be greatly be appreciated thanks.
USA didn't show it when I looked to update on Wednesday but VPN to Canada and picked it up 9.0.6.

For me I was curious to see if this is like the treble ROMs that are out. There are AOSP TREBLE ROMs out that function quite well. One of the advantages is that we have a choice not use Google apps/services with the TREBLE ROMs. Just like the old days. Most of the custom roms out now are loaded with gapps.
There's even AOSP based ROMs with gapps in this section that have a lot more customations.
It's really about choice.

If I try this how can I flash back to a normal rom? I heard you need to use https://pixelrepair.withgoogle.com but it's forbidden in my country.

If you have fastboot then download factory image, extract contents to fastboot folder and hit run
If not download the OTA zip, load up recovery, sideload update in recovery using ADB

My wife is using one that has a locked bootloader. I tried everything without success. Then I gave up and bought the unlocked version and gave her the Verizon one LOL.
There is a thread in this section that talks about unlocking Verizon ones.

Ok now we have a new tool. It's like the other tool mentioned in this thread. It doesn't mention needing "OEM unlocked" enabled. Question is. Can I flash Google fi firmware on my at&t phone and be able to enable "OEM Unlock" afterwards?

Hey after flashing Developer Preview one I got no network connection.
My device is a Chinese version with global Rom.
NE2215
I also tried flashing the Chinese version and the EU version and it didn't work either.
Any ideas?
All the settings in the connection options are greyed out. I cant set the APN manually. Everything is greyed out.
you probably lost your imei. sorry to say, but you likely have a very expensive brick on your hands.
Got similar problem on 1+. The imei is available but both sim cards do not find network. It occures not only on developer preview but on all ROMs

You mean to say, it can't be fixed!!!!
I was contemplating installing the dev preview, but couldn't find time.

if you lost the imei, then no you can't fix it unless you previously made a back up. go into settings and checkk if it's still there or unavailable
My problem is only happening in developer Previews of android 13
After I reverted back to android 12, everything works again. Dunno what it is. I did a log the last time. Maybe that will help someone.
I can active the sim with entering the sim pin. The sim tries to activate, but it always aborts. So the sign for the not entered sim in status bar is disappears and comes back again. Same with the options in network settings. They randomly grey out and come back again.
I got a Chinese version flashed du NE2215. So I got NE2210 hardware with NE2215 Rom. Maybe this causes my problem. Cant either flash NE2210 or NE2215 developer preview. Both have the same problem.
why making those experiments with the phone
no you see problems and headache,

The question is not why I do such "experiments". The question is, why it doesn't work.
If I would like to wait for final release, I would not be in this forum.

As I said, with stable build everything is fine (expect battery drain. ). Only the dev build I can't get to work. Let's see... Maybe the logs will help finding the problem

Nope, you just can update via local update. A nice how to is on the OnePlus forums. There are also all downloads you need

it's not allowing me
Yeah, because you have a higher version of Android 12. You have to downgrade first with the android 12 package.

Mr GeGGi what about this post

Did not have any problems with locked bootloader. For me it worked.
Dunno what this guy flashed
All in all you do this at your own risk. No one guarantees you anything
And read the post. It has nothing to do with locked bootloader. This is when guys flash without knowledge
The software is from Pixel 6 Pro so no network is a Must !
