[Redmi 1 4GB] Is it Safe to Update to MIUI 7 ?



Hello,

I use Redmi 4GB that comes with MIUI 5 SG, then I update it to JHBMIBF19.0.
I'm thinking to update it to MIUI 7 5.8.10 developer rom.
I wonder if it safe to upgrade from MIUI 5 to MIUI 7 on my Redmi 4GB.
Cause I'm afraid that my Redmi 4GB will
  • Ran out of memory. Currently, my Redmi 4GB already consume 90% of internal memory, and my applications isn't consume that much as I check on App2SD. Since I update to JHBMIBF19.0, it used 90% of internal memory instead of 20% when on MIUI 5 SG.

  • Slows down / lag. My current MIUI 5 had some lag when launching Instagram or BBM, it can took very long and sometimes not responding.

  • Some application may break. Some said that after updating, their google play didn't work, and many apps didn't work.

  • Some hardware may break. Some said that after updating, bluetooth, wifi, or many hardware wont work.


If I backup all my app data to my PC with MI Phone suite, can I get back once I update to MIUI 7 ?

So, anyone who updated their Redmi 4GB to MIUI 7, is safe at all ? no problem / bug ?
And how to do the update, should I follow Xiaomi's flashing guide that use Updater > Select Installation file ? or Reboot to recovery mode then Wipe / reset and then install update.zip?

thanks.

Redmi Note 4G Bricked



Redmi Note 4G is bricked, it was my first time playing around with flashing a custom rom.

I flashed Cyanogen Mod 11 through CWM from CM 12, then I proceeded to install TWRP custom recovery, since Open GApps didn't support the specific recovery.

My phone rebooted and I'm now stuck with a Cyanogen Mod loading screen, and if I turn off the phone, and I try to fastboot it, I'm stuck on a weird screen with a logo on it, and I think it's called PhilZ.

Please help! Thank you.

Gearbest discount for Redmi Note 2 Prime [178.99USD]



To those on the verge of purchasing,

Just got an email showing the Redmi Note 2 Prime (32GB) being on sale for the next few days.
Oddly enough, the black version is cheaper than the white one: http://www.gearbest.com/cell-phones/...html?vip=56770
I've been waiting for a special offer to pop up before I bite the bullet and buy it, this may very well be it!

P.S. Not sure what the policy is on referrals, but I like to be direct, so using that link will only help me get a discount on the phone itself, it doesn't seem to award any commission.

Can anyone tell me how to change Mac address in RedMi 2 Prime?



I want to change Mac address of RedMi 2 Prime mobile as my company Wi-Fi access is restricted to few Mac addresses only.

I rooted my mobile and tried BusyBox and Terminal...it didn't work!

This YouTube video suggests to edit the file .mac.cob in /efs/wifi..but this mobiles doesn't have the folder efs in Device...!!

This does have a folder wifi in Device/etc...and it has a file WCNSS_qcom_cfg.ini.It has Mac in Hex format.
The code for WCNSS_qcom_cfg.ini is available in Google Source


Lines 34 to 39
# Assigned MAC Addresses - This will be used until NV items are in place
# Each byte of MAC address is represented in Hex format as XX
Intf0MacAddress=000AF58989FF
Intf1MacAddress=000AF58989FE
Intf2MacAddress=000AF58989FD
Intf3MacAddress=000AF58989FC


I tried This tutorial also..but didn't work :(
Can anyone tell me how to change Mac..it would be appreciated

Thanks in advance
