Need some advice, getting Poco f1 soon. - Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers

Greeting Guys,
I am going to have this Poco F1 soon. I am totally new on this. Hope if anyone can help to answer my questions, Thanks alot.
1) I read news saying those who use MIUI 10 are unable to downgrade, even flash to custom roms will be an issue. But is that true? Is that I need not to upgrade to miui 10 in order to flash to custom rom?
2) Any way to have TWRP and Magisk installed while still manage to run OTA update?
3) I am a fan of the ARISE Sound Systems. So I need Magisk support to get it work. But if really install it, will it affect the OTA update if point 2) is valid?
Appreciate if someone can help me to answer this.
Thanks.

1 that's a lie
2 I don't know but once my phone updated itself when I was sleeping. I've lost twrp tho.
3 same as above. You can always download full ROM and then flash it in twrp

Great, your answer has lessen my worry on the Miui10 issue.
Now will be the problem for OTA update issue. Wish to have it Magisk rooted and ARISE ready while OTA update is still working. Because the phone will be under 1 year Malaysia warranty and I don't wish to void the warranty yet.
Will be grateful if someone got answer for it.
Anyway, how's the battery performance and camera? is it good?

Ok, updated.
For the twrp issue, Found the link here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-4/how-to/guide-root-using-magisk-stock-recovery-t3718203
So, fastboot twrp, use it to install magisk to root it. It seems that it will remain the stock recovery and also ota update as fastboot does not flash the twrp. Seems to be a good news to me.
I assume I can use the same way to install ARISE Sound System. Am I right on it?

Not a problem with ota updates and twrp / magisk. As long as you follow the instructions here on xda about how to flash twrp and magisk with the force encrypt disable file.
Remember magisk is a systemless service meaning when you start twrp for the first time choose to "keep system read only " and you are fine with both twrp and also safetynet issues that might occur otherwise if system is modified. Only choose to modify system in twrp if your aim is to run supersu or root using old school solutions or if you wish to run xposed in system and not as magisk add-on.
As for battery stats
I'm getting a minimum of 9.5h of SOT on 1 charge.
I'm between 9.5-11h SOT in general.

First of, if you have unlocked bootloader you are completely safe and fine to do what ever you wish with the phone in terms of flashing.
You will have the possibility to flash using fastboot or any other application using computer. If twrp is installed your are all good and set to do what ever you like. Your own knowledge and your patience of following instructions is what might mess it up but still then you can revert to stock without issues.

poco already gave some units to rom developer , i presumed they dont mind people to flash other rom other then miui , warranty wont be affected ?

No it won't. You can do whatever you want
Wysłane z mojego POCOPHONE F1 przy użyciu Tapatalka

1) You can downgrade whenever you want via MiFlash or TWRP with flashable zip as long as you have the file and with bootloader unlocked
2) You can, I just updated my MIUI with Magisk installed. If it failed just make an entry and mask it
3) I don't think so. But if it requires additional permissions or mod such as Xposed i suggest don't try it first as there are no official/ minor bug framework for Pocophone F1 yet

OK, understood, found the post in poco f1 XDA here. But for force encrypt disable file, do I need to reinstall it again whenever I ota update or magical update?

[Q] Notification about update, but install always fails?

I have the LTE version on Boost, its already on 5.1 but there is obviously an update for it, I get the prompt to download update but when I go to install it, the install fails. The notification gets annoying b/c it seems to come up while i'm trying to use the phone. How can I force the update? Or disable the notification for the update entirely....I like the phone as it is right now
is it fully stock ?
once you tinker with it you may lose ability to get OTA updates i think right.
and that update could be a "Stagefright" update.
update failure is due to modified recovery/system

now to verify if ur system is modified then do one thing, reboot into ur bootloader and there will be displayed some text in yellow that device connected via USB or something like that above this text is : system status: official/modified(depending upon ur device ). And my guess here is that ur system status is modified and hence u might not recieve updates. Don't worry bro! it doesnt matter, anyways we wont recieve updates for android v6.0. As for 5.1 use any custom rom like CM12.1 or PACMAN.
I bought the phone off eBay and its already rooted, so obviously it has been modified, i clicked on "Disable" on the moto udpate thing and it seems to not be bothering me with the updates. I think its crazy that it downloads the updates and then tells me to install it, but it won't actually install....i'll just leave it as it is for right now. The phone is only used for PerkTV apps, so its not even used for service
i searched this sub-forum for update failed and pretty much every single topic showed up LOL
it seems i too am getting this update prompt too.
i tried letting it update and it always fails then eventually i get into a loop.
my phone keeps restarting to recovery automatically.
but it stopped when i re-flashed my Squid kernel.
But i do want to install the update though.. the update details said it was a stagefright fix.
i figured out what was going on by reading the logs.
the update for me downloads and tries to install.. it asks you to restart to apply the update.
when it restarts it fails with an error mentioning "Keys" and the versions found / needed.
i am thinking i *might be able to adb side load the update with TWRP but i have not used that before yet.
i also think forcing the update may be a bad idea.. i don't want to brick it LOL
so i don't know..
edit:
I guess it's common for these to fail.
something set test Keys on my phone prob SuperSU
It got detected and then the update failed.
i found some side loading info and possible TWRP flashable version info for another phone.
But they say flash to a stock firmware and i have done that a lot lately and can't be bothered right now.
So it seems if i want the OTA update installed it's gonna be some work/waiting.
Going to keep an eye out for a TWRP ready flashable.zip though
I have the same issue as xpmule, when phone restarts to install the update it boots into recovery (TWRP) so the update fails. I restored a backup and now I am waiting for an update that I can flash using TWRP, stagefright is serious business.
I have an euro XT1524, rooted, Stock 5.1 US ROM flashed and squid kernel r10f.
I have a Canadian XT1527, rooted, Stock 5.1 US ROM flashed and squid kernel r10f.
And i still have not had much time to research more but i think the problem lies
with the singing keys..
i can see WHY it failed when you open the TWRP log (middle button)
my log said it failed to execute the update script because of bad keys..
It mentions i have test/keys and it expects to see Retail/Keys
When i looked on the web i see that could be because of SuperSU (being signed with TestKeys)
Or i thought maybe even Squids Kernel i am running.
If anyone seen a topic on this or what ever then let us know
i will prob keep poking around and see what i can do.
Problem is i am being VERY cautious i don't want to brick my phone.
Official OTAs tend not to flash on rooted or modified devices. Specifically with custom recoveries. The zips script verifies partitions and if something doesn't match it'll fail. Usually to get the ota you'll have to go back to completely stock unrooted firmware with the stock recovery.
After growing tired of seeing the update popup each time the phone decided to switch networks I did this:
Full TWRP Backup (just in case)
Flashed XT1527_SURNIA_RETUS_5.1_LPI23.29-18.9_cid9_subsidy-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip from here
I flashed back TWRP (well, just replaced the recovery.img from the stock rom, did the same with the logo)
Restored data backup
Reinstalled squid's kernel
Reinstalled SuperSU
Had some minor quirks, like losing the swiftkey language (just enter the config and download again, didn't lose predictions) and having to open apps that needed root and reapply SuperSU permissions, but all of those sound normal. Everything seems to be working correctly, there's no annoying popup nor Stagefright vulnerability.

ya i was thinking of doing similar pretty quick..
was waiting to hear back from people if that included stage fright fixes.
people are slow to reply here lol
thanks for the info.. i was not sure what parts of the back up i was going to restore.
also i use Swift Keyboard to.. i just wish the Lollipop UI had the Holo Theme or some dark theme.
but ya me too that prompt was getting a bit irritating lol
I have a virgin mobile xt1526 running 5.0.2 rooted but i need to update to 5.1, if i flash the ret_us update will it correctly identify my phone as VM? Boost users, did android correctly identify your phone as boost when you flashed the ret_us 5.1 update?

The update is for people on 5.1 already.
There is a different update for the 5.0.2 versions.
The retail update will look for the right version to update or it will fail.
And it is VERY picky at what it expects to see too !
Your going to need the newest full firmware package (easiest way)
that is a whole new can of worms to open LOL
@direi
i did the same thing now..
i seem to be up running ok and not vulnerable using the same Stage Fright Test tool as you.
Although i had to let it fire up once after flashing then turn it off so i could get the partition restored.
Reinstalled squid kernel with twrp and problem solved. Then froze motorolaOTA. Working fine so far.

[ROOT] How To Root Blu Vivo 5 (Android 5.1; Build 27-01-2016 or Older)

I decided I would start this thread as no one else has started it yet.
This is how to root your Blu Vivo 5!
****BEFORE BEGINNING MAKE SURE YOU DO NOT HAVE "ENABLE OEM UNLOCK" CHECKED IN DEVELOPER OPTIONS AS THIS WILL BRICK YOUR PHONE***
1. Go To h t t p : / / w w w . k i n g r o o t . n e t / (Can't Post Links Yet, Remove Spaces)
2. Download KingRoot (On Your Phone; Or On Your PC and Copy To Your Phone)
3. Open The App and Click "Try To Root" When It Prompts To
4. Once Done, Click The Orange Button in the Center to Fix Permissions
5. Done!
This method was tested by me and a few others. Confirmed working.
***Optionally, you can replace KingRoot with SuperSU using Super-Sume or Apps of that nature but I have not tested these methods personally so tread carefully at your own risk.
Additionally, I can confirm that all root features have worked so far (Viper4Android, AdAway, LuckyPatcher, etc)
No Custom Recoveries Are Available As of this Post, but let's keep this device alive and start development for it!
< If you guys have any questions leave them down below and I'll try to answer them as best as I can and as soon as I can>:good:
Yes been rooted since day one with king root. Just waiting on recovery like most, the device it self is amazing, besides the mms messages not coming in on third party apps this device is still a best for it's price tag.
Man, I really hope development for this device gets picked up. I would like to offer to do some but I don't have the time right now. If things free up I may tinker around with it. I would love to have twrp 3.0 and cm 13 for it but that's going to need someone to port it.
Never mind... It appears to be loose. If I push on it then it starts working.
Did anyone have a problem with ear speaker not making sound after King root? I ran the purity app that comes with it I am wondering if it disabled it or something. Speaker phone works but calls with the ear speaker I cannot here after the root. Should I uninstall kingroot and try again?
This is not helpful. Kingroot is a fools app. It will root your phone but at a significant cost to your security and privacy. Ever think it was weird that kingroot forced you to use its own SUPER-SU manager? Ever think the "Purify" app was a little weird and unessessery? I'm not going to go into details but kingroot isn't offering you a free service for nothing or out if the goodness of their hearts. They steal your information in return which is why they want you to use their app. They report back to themselves your IMEI number among other things.
When people recommend King root it's not helpful, it only makes the rooting community a worse place because noobs and non developers who are naive to these issues are the ones that pay the price.
Is kingroot really that bad?
I was looking around and there are other methods for older blu phones that use Mediatek chips that don't use KingRoot but do require flashing with a custom recovery.
Same issue
i just got mine and im having the same issue even without root. did you find a fix?

Complete FUD. After you root, you can remove "purify" and you can install a firewall to block anything you want. And you can than install any SU you choose (and remove theirs). I have used Kingroot on many phones with no security issues at all. This is all just unfounded nonsense from when it was first released (years ago) and some people were concerned because the method was not "open". Everything you said has been shown not to be true after the initial releases. Nothing worse than someone (who calls others "noobs") talking about things which they don't know and trying to sound like they know something. You should really research the latest info before you post about something like this.
How do you unroot i used the unroot option in kingroot so i could do the new update but i get a message that the system is broke

That is how to unroot. It does look like if this phone has ever been rooted it screws with OTAs.

? this update really don't matter as it is for radio which I do not use. But when marshmallow finally comes i would like to make that update. Oh well

Thanks for this. Rooted the moment I got my phone!
I have a question... If you root the phone with this way, you could update with ota later? Thanks!
It doesn't appear that you can do any OTA's after you root.
I am trying to do the first radio update with hopes of doing the 6.0 update but this is what you get "Your system is damaged, wireless update is disabled".
If anyone knows a way around this it would be appreciated. Any way to get the updates manually and put on the SD card to update via recovery?
Blu support is not very helpful either.

Is anyone else having terrible battery life on this after upgrading to Marshmallow?
After doing the update to Marshmallow in this thread, I flashed TWRP and rooted via this thread.
Now my battery life has been absolutely terrible. Before updating to Marshmallow, I could go almost all day, have 35%+ left at night, goto sleep and then wake up with around 20% of battery all the time. Now if I goto sleep with 50% battery it's dead when I wake up. Seems to be "Wlan" and "Phone Idle" using most of the battery as you can see in the screenshot below. Also, after the phone dies and I plug it back in, it always shows as 13-15% battery life right away (odd), so I used a battery calibration app that seemed to do nothing and still same bad battery.
I'm thinking it may be due to me missing the OTA update right before the Marshmallow OTA update. I know it had to do with the radio, could that be it? Does anyone have that in a zip file I could flash via TWRP? If so, would it be ok to do that?
Any ideas would be appreciated, here's a screenshot of battery usage:

For anyone wondering, no you cannot run OTA and update your phone if you rooted using Kingroot. Even doing a factory reset won't help. You will have to flash the phone using a stock rom and then rerooting after you update.

my guess is " performing of multiple operations simultaneously " meaning getting MR's OTA and working Naugat (Android 7) at the same time???
well i'm just assuming so , and i assume next Update will be N release., you know B3x

Oh sweet, thanks. I think I tried it before but it didn't stick after rebooting. Has it changed since then? If so, I'm definitely gonna have to search for it again.
I have the option for the update as well. Waiting as I'm rooted.

Parallel paths does indeed mean they are simultaneously working on updates and the long awaited Nougaaaattttt update. ZTE has done a good job updating and listening to their customers in the z-forum. Lets hope this plus Official CM and unlock bootloader without breaking warranty will help ZTE be known as a developer friendly Own.
How do we install if we are unlocked bootloader and rooted??
Do we have any idea if flashing U roms on G device works? Would love to get rid of the bell
Here over in europe, i just received for my A2017G an 703mb big B05 Update.(previous B03)
Strange that ours is 703mb big (hope they fix the youtube freeze Problem) and also supports optional notification bell (no info for that in the change log)
Take a look:

Here is an Mega Mirror for the B29 update. Just in case.
I have simply copied it from its location "data/data/com.zte.zdm/files" where the updater places its OTA files.

If you place the file into that directory. You should be good to go using the inbuild updater.

I was on B27, unlocked bootloader, TWRP recovery, rooted, with changes to /system, and have successfully upgraded to B29 (w/ same modifications). Since I made changes to /system (AdAway, Titanium Backup, AFWall) and wanted a clean slate for everything, I wiped my A7.
If you don't want to factory reset your device and didn't make any changes to /system, you might only have to unroot, restore stock boot.img and stock recovery.img via TWRP (from rczrider's topic linked below), install B29.zip in stock recovery, flash TWRP, then flash root, but I didn't do it personally, so no guarantees.
Anyway, this is what I did. Some of these steps might not have been needed, and probably could have been done differently, but it's what worked for me, and yes I like rebooting:
1. Download the B29 update, DrakenFX's B27 StockSystem zip for TWRP (which also flashes stock boot.img), stock B27 recovery.img from rczrider, and SuperSU 2.65. Put all on microSD.
2. Booted into TWRP and did a factory reset, rebooted back into TWRP and flashed DrakenFX's B27 StockSystem ZIP, rebooted back into TWRP and flashed stock B27 recovery.img, rebooted device.
3. Powered on the device and made sure it booted into OS fine and was still reporting the correct amount of internal storage space. Rebooted into stock recovery and flashed the B29 update.zip from my microSD card. Installed fine, rebooted into OS to made sure it still worked.
4. Rebooted into fastboot, connected to my computer and flashed Unjustified Dev's TWRP via Minimal ADB & Fastboot, booted into TWRP and flashed SuperSU 2.65 from my microSD, let the device reboot itself a couple of times.
I now have B29 with unlocked bootloader, TWRP, and root.
NOTE: Something I noticed when I was going through and disabling system apps: WeShare can't be disabled from the Settings > Apps menu, but can be disabled by opening the app drawer, pressing and holding on it, and dragging it up to "Disable" at the top of the screen.
However, it would probably be easier to just wait for DrakenFX to create custom TWRP install zips for B29.

I used this on 5T and it did work super.
But i am wondering if this is working for view10 or not... V10 requires a unique code to unlock BL, where do we provide that code here?
Also rooting v10 requires an img to be flashed. Is this tool working?
Anyone tested all these features on View10??

I have tested it on my honor view 10, to unlock your bootloader you still need of huawei unlock codes, always remember this tool automate process not bypass it (except it is not specified). This tool can't root the phone directly
EDIT: there is a little bug when you try to unlock the bootloader and your phone is in powered on and recognized in adb mode, i'm releasing a new version to fix it at this moment
EDIT 2: update released

Hi
Thanks for excellent tool. I have installed it and watched the videos you posted for OnePlus. You have used SuperSu in case of OnePlus. But for Honor View 10 I want to use Magisk. Can you please let me know the step?

The videos are not made by me, i found it on youtube and i added the link to tool description. To root your device you need to see this guide: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ho...agisk-root-honor-view-10-mate-10-pro-t3749280

Thanks for response. So far I unlocked the boot loader (really easy with your tool one click only thanks for it). For root
how to install Magisk Manager using your tool. Which button to use
1. Recovery flasher
2. Recovery Zip flasher
Bear with me if it sounds naïve this is first time I am trying to root

You can't root your phone with this tool, you need to follow that guide
You can installa magisk manager through "apk installer"
Just for info, Files are available for V10 now on firmware finder.

Hi guys.
I'm looking forward for Honor View 10 or Honor 10, and as I'm with Samsung S8, I'm trying to understand if these Honor devices can receive a recovery consol or be rooted in a way that can be restored to stock without being noticed from official assistance in case I'll need to go for an assistance in warranty.
Second, as I'm with Samsung since years, I've always seen to need a recovery consol and a root package to flash (as standard classic methods) for having complete access to phone, while here I read about unlocking and unlocking cuts from Honor (that I'm reading now it seams that they stopped to release easily the code needed), recovery, bootloader and other things that I'm completely lost in reading
I'm not speaking of the strict interest in flashing alternative roms, but at least to have the possibility to clean the phone deeply once in a while manually with SD-Maid, RootExplorer and other apps (maybe you know of more professional...) so for it not to get fat and more fat in time, with the possibility to clean corps and old unused system files without the need of a wipe, so to have a slim internal sd-card as much as I can (specially if I'll go for the Honor 10)
So please explain me a bit of what is this Honor world as I'm really willing to they one even tomorrow!!
Thanks to allall.

Mate 9 is not officially supported, if it has kirin 970 you can try to select honor view 10 and use the tool
Hey buddy, thanks for this amazing tool. I need to know, if there's need of the Bootloader Code for unlocking it on a Honor V10?
Also, if I need to add a phone that's in similar state as this phone (LG Stylus 2 Plus, currently not supported by LG for unlocking with their tool), can I send everything that you may need for making the tool compatible with it?
Thanks in advance!
i tried today on my honor view 10 to unlock bootloader, cant work

Question Currently Running India Android 13 Beta (From Global to EU to India)

Hi All,
I am now on the latest India Android 13 Beta that was just released.
Here is how I flashed while keeping root and unlocked bootloader.
Global to Full EU A08 - Install magisk to inactive slot before rebooting
EU A08 to Full India A10 - Install magisk to inactive slot before rebooting
India A10 to Full India latest Android 13 beta(CPH2413_11_C.10) - Install magisk to inactive slot before rebooting
If I didn't goto the EU rom, I would have just went to the latest India and then to the India Android 13 Beta.
After you flash using local storage while booted into your current Android, BEFORE YOU REBOOT, you have to then goto Magisk app and install Magisk to the "Inactive Slot"
I did not need to do a factory reset either. I read somewhere that if you are going to a newer version when flashing cross regions, you won't have to factory reset. I haven't tried flashing the same full version of a different region, but I don't see why I would need a factory reset in that instance either as long as I am doing the "Full". Though that is yet to be determined.
Also you have to always do the "Full" update when you download it from Oneplus Updater app if you have an unlocked bootloader. It's probably also required if you are just going to be jumping around different region roms...

Does doing this method keep your data? Even with doing full update from oxygen updater? Thanks in advance! I will keep a backup either way but I'd like to know.

Hey, thank you so much for the reply, however it seems I have gotten myself into a pickle lmao... After downloading the indian A10 firmware from oxygen updater, I went into software update in settings and clicked local update etc... It then said extracting for a while, and after that, it simply said install. I clicked on install, and it restarted my phone to proceed with the update, this caused me to lose root. That is fine with me as I can simply root again before updating to A13, however, is there a way to install without rebooting for next time? or do I install magisk to inactive slot before clicking "install" in settings? Other than this the first update went fine, and my data is perfectly intact.

I am using one of the apks to do the local install. I did not have local install in my normal settings. As noted in the OnePlus updater app, below are the links. I used the android 12 one below.
This does the install them tells you to reboot. You ignore that and then do the magisk flash before rebooting. I'm surprised you have local install in your normal settings...see my screenshot below for what I am using.

Yeah honestly I was kind of surprised too lmao, Im pretty sure that I screwed up a few months ago when trying different roms and ended back up on Indian oxygenos A08. Then after toggling developer options, local update option was there. Anyways I am on android 13 now and it looks amazing! Thanks so much for the help, and I'll be sure to use these apks in the future.

Yeah i agree, its super smooth, and there have been few bugs. I do notice that swiping away notifications takes a lot of swipe if that makes sense. Also for future reference, I was able to install magisk by booting from the A0.8 patched image, even though it was for android 12, it worked like a charm (direct install), and I am once again rooted on Android 13!

I haven't noticed any issues with swiping away notifications yet. I'll have to pay closer attention.
The search issue when searching for an app and your search not clearing when you come back is quite annoying.

Yeah the search issue was really annoying, but you can disable "smart search in app drawer" to go back to old search/fix the bug. Also have you had any issues with fingerprint? I cant tell if it got slower, or if I am just trippen... Also I realized the notifications just need an extra swipe/tap to clear all the way.

Finger print seems fine for me.
Good call on the search, I have now disabled the smart search.
You're right on the notifications, sometimes it seems to need a little extra. Not always though, so maybe it's certain types of notifications...
