Some issues ... - Xiaomi Mi MIX Questions & Answers

Hi all,
Newbie to MIUI. Love the MiMix. But I am finding weird things happening that I have not encountered with Android 6 or 7.
MIUI System Launcher
Strange thing I notice is if I use a different launcher and make it Default, I won't be able to change Wallpaper for Home or Lockscreen. Never faced this before.
Turn off LTE/4G and then turn back on - Phone has LTE/4G but no calls in or out. I then have to do a manual select my telco only then will the phone work again.
Thanks in advance.

[Q] Huge Problems after switching SIMs. Can you help?

Hi all,
after switching SIM cards on my SGS (running Darky's ROM 9.2). My phone behaves really strange. Afer booting, it went through the initial setup process (asking for 3g and/or wifi etc.) and after that is completed almost all apps (including launcher pro etc.) crash ("App stopped unexpectdly. Force Close")
Does anyone have any idea why this is and if there is a way to fix it without wiping? I had this behaviour once before but did not realize it was connected to switching SIMs.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks Stefan

GSM Signal on Custom ROMS // Sense Crashes

Hello all,
I live in Europe so after buying my HTC One, I proceeded to root it and SIM Unlock it (Successfully).
All was well and good, until a month or so later the phone begins to behave strangely.
When I hit Home there is a stutter and pause and the home panels appear as though the process had just been started (When it should be kept in the background). The App drawer would refuse to populate with apps and the phone would freeze and heat up (Extremely hot) at random times and for random lengths of time.
Having used Cyanogenmod on my Desire HD I decided to give it a go and bypass my problems altogether. It worked great! No more crashes or anything like that. Except I cannot pick up any GSM signal. Through messing with the mobile network settings I can get it to show "3" (my network) as the local network, but I cannot receive or send messages or calls.
After a lot of experimenting with tonnes of ROMs I have figured out that no custom ROM will give me a signal!
But every ROM that is based heavily on sense (Like Viper 1.1.0 for the HTC One) experiences the same crashes I had suffered with initially.
Does anybody have any ideas about this issue?
I use TWRP recovery and Factory Reset (via TWRP) before every flash.
Bump?
I am currently on stock and my phone continues to crash regularly for anything between 2-20 minutes. The issue has gotten a lot worse and my backup from months ago (just after SIM Unlock) does not help the issue. I don't know what the root cause is but it is something to do with Sense so I need to use another ROM. Does anybody have anything to add to the Signal/Reception issue I'm having with custom ROMs?
Okay one last bump.
Tried all the Sprint HTC One specified ROMs I could find, still no service.
Tried different radios, every network setting under phone info and mobile settings. Countless reboots.
APN settings never appear, rarely does the phone pick up my 3 Network but never has reception.
My recent desperate google searches are actually brining me back to this thread!
Stock sense is still spontaneously crashing when I restore to it, for when I need to use my phone again.
Hey, I know I'm talking to myself at this stage but to anyone who gets here in the meantime and has the crashing issue...
Installing something like Apex or Nova launcher instead of HTC Sense seems to solve it.
I guess blinkfeed had decided to become suicidal or something.
Anyway, the GSM issue is still there with other ROMs.

Yes. I am currently running a stock that is Software Version 1.29.
I have tried a 1.31 version of stock too but the same issue exists across all the versions I could find, concerning the crashes. The only solution so far has been to change the Launcher.
Thanks, for checking out this thread too.

One final thing i can think of...
Did you try editing your build.prop file?
I changed these settings:
gsm.sim.operator.alpha
Vodafone
gsm.operator.iso-country
in
ro.ril.hsupa.category
6
ro.ril.hsdpa category
10
gsm.sim.operator.iso-country
in
gsm.operator.numeric
40486
ro.telephony.default_network
3
gsm.sim.operator.numeric
40486
These are settings for my telephone operator in India. You might want to google for your settings...Have a look at the other settings as well.

[Q] No GPS lock after rooting

Hello everyone...
I rooted my phone and ever since my GPS wont lock, navigation will start and give me the first set of insrtuctions but at soon as i start to move it cant lock onto the phones location. I've tried flashing other ROMS and still the same result. I flashed CM11 and tried the gps trick with root browser and still no love... this sucks bad as I do service work and am constantly using the navi.
Any fixes? Anyone else experiencing this?
Thanks for your input....

[Q] Hyperdrive 7.0.0 Wifi Issue

So, Hyperdrive Notified me that 7.0.0 was released, and I downloaded it and installed it in my phone. The 7.0.0 edition is for Verizon, after I installed it. There were 2 bugs, but nothing major. 1 issue I am having though is with the Wifi. The Wifi button via the dropdown menu will freeze halfway through when it is trying to light up green, however it never even connects or even looks for open wifi networks. How do I fix this??
Thanks
Wifi Frozen

I'm having the exact problem. The Wifi toggle is frozen and won't turn green. I know for a fact that it's not a hardware issue because when I switch to the stock ROM in Safe Strap the WIFI works without any problems.
Please let me know if there is a fix for the issue. Otherwise I love the ROM but it's hard to deal with the Wifi issue.
notified as well
I got the notification on my phone that there is a new version but I didn't upgrade, for me the hyperdrive 6.10 has worked great!! and I didn't want to mess with it because it works well.......... Also, am a NOVICE at this!! and cannot believe I rooted, and put a custom rom on my t-mobile note 3 not 1 problem!!! and didn't mess up my phone!! I am going to look for another cheap note 3 to experiment with so I don't mess up my current note by adding mods... anyone have a cheap note 3 tmobile I am looking,.. thanks

Mi9T Pro two questions

Hello everyone
I just have two questions for now about usage of this phone. I have standard EU MI9tPro 6/128 version with stock Miui Global 10 (10.3.2.0). After a week i got it unlocked officially and rooted with magisk - added edxposed with gravity box to tweak it like my old redmi note 3 pro. As it is miui i was sure my old problem with redmi note will be gone as my wife uses redmi 4a with miui and don't have this issue. The issue is- i can't send or receive mms messages until i manually enable mobile data. I'm one of those people that have data turned off until i really need it soo yea... On my wife's phone with miui 10 this works like it should. It starts mobile data automatically on mms receive or send. On my mi9tpro it just waits for me to enable it. After enabling data i can normally send and receive mms . Is there any cure for this behavior on miui? If not can someone point me to a custom rom when this feature really works ?
Second question requires explanation as ususal I'm always on 2G to save battery life. Enabling data ends with waiting for anything so i need to switch to 3G or 4G and that is pretty annoying since i have to go to settings click this and that and that. So my solution for that on redmi note 3 pro was a feature in Gravitybox module to add tile to pop down menu with quick preferred network switch . That worked great. On current miui every other option from gravity box works except this one :/ Is there any other way to quickly change preferred data mode ? Like adding a button/switch to the desktop or pop down menu? Other than these two little problems all works great Thank You all for reading. Please help
up, anyone?
Am i the only freak here who don't use mobile data all the time and 2G? I'm sure there is someone here who had that issue. Anyone?
Try giving the messaging app permissions for toggling system settings, network and wifi.
I'm using textra . I gave it all permissions. Everything. Still no go. Same with original messeging app.
Hello. I was able to solve my second question with a widget from nova launcher - it made a switch on main screen to switch network mode so that is sorted. Mms not receiving automatically is a problem still. Anyone have a solution to that?
Sorry, don't have any solution for you but I'm wondering why all this hassle…

yea agreed , 2g on a 4000 mah battery ,this method used to be a old school way , if battery life is important , always bring along a powerbank
Hehe i can understand Your point there. This is the Way i work - i don't want to have mobile data enabled if not necessary.

Yeah, even though I personnally don't care about having mobile data enabled the whole time, I can see why you would want to turn it off and on, especially if you are data limited, etc.
I was talking about the hassle to switch to 2G <--> 4G just for battery life.
Out of Curiosity, and without exagerating please, how much battery life you think you save by doing this ?
I can't really say as i have this Phone for twoo weeks, but seeing as how quickly % go down with 4g and 2g i would Say a Day maybe more can be saved. I know how it must sounds for others. I used to get 5-6 days without charging on my Old redmi note3 pro. I won't get that on this one for sure. Thank you for answering

5-6 days for note pro 4100 mah , are you at outdoor most of the time ? do update here how long k20 pro/mi9t pro last on 2g mode . funny this quick switch widget 2g to 3g used to be a norm , then its was gone , perhaps nowadays data has gone down in price , more cheaper . hmmm isnt MMS using telco lines instead of data ?
It's not matter of cost but more security. And Yes in Poland at least data needs to be enabled for MMS to work. I can update on how long i can go with my usage with 2g.
