[Q] - Xiaomi Redmi 1S

Hii guys..I need your help..
yesterday i decided to flash a new LOLLIPOP ROM in my redmi 1s and after searching for many ROMs I downloaded "[ROM][5.1] Android Ice Cold Project 9.0" and after following the MIUI site's tutorial about "How to Flash Custom ROM On Redmi 1S", I flashed this ROM..
Music player was stopping continuously but other then this everything was working fine...and as I was using MIUI 5.0 earlier, after getting the backup of apps and data using titanium, I restored everything in this new ROM(although I was not supposed to restore the data but now I'm regretting about that)..and after restoring the data from titanium, it demanded a restart so after rebooting the phone now everything is stopping continuously (email, message some trebuchet app and many more)..even systemUI has also stopped and even sims are not showing any network plus after connecting USB it is not showing files of phone..
Now I can't open the phone the only thing i can do is long press the power button and reboot/switch off the phone..
tried the recovery mode by pressing the volume down+power button but it is showing some FASTBOOT icon and is not running further...
I don't know what to do now as I'm new in this area...So please help me out..:crying::crying:

Its fine nothing to worry, you can get back to other ROM using recovery.
But you were doing it the wrong way.
Volume down + power = fastboot mode
Volume up + power = recovery mode
Hope you got it.
Wipe everything. Flash a fresh ROM.
And remember miui v5 is still android 4.3
And lollipop is android 5.
There are several apps that are still not compatible with lollipop (because of Runtime change).
Anyway try that. And ya, use latest titanium backup and also better to flash SuperSU instead of inbuilt root. Since many people had problems with inbuilt root app in developers setting.
Thanks...

Dude that key combination is for fastboot mode,to go into recovery mode you should press Vol up + power button.And why are you restoring apps from miui on cm based rom.it will not work,miui apps requires its own framework.so dont restore miui apps on any other rom

[Q] Hey everyone! Would appreciate your help with my cousin's DHD

Hi everyone! I own a rooted Nexus S with a custom ICS ROM, so I'm pretty familiar with flashing new ROMs using ClockworkMod in general. My cousin asked me to update her phone because it has become quite laggy. I figured I would take a stab at it, but I've run into a few issues.
First, she bought the phone used about six months ago. The guy she bought it from had already rooted the phone and installed a custom GB rom on it (Android Revolution HD 6.1.5). I can't seem to figure out how to boot the phone into recovery mode. ROM Manager has not been installed, and when I try to boot the phone to recovery mode by pressing the vol down button and the power button, it just boots regularly. Here is some of the other info:
Android version:
2.3.5
HTC Sense version:
3.0
Kernel version:
2.6.35.14-RCMIX3D-ACS-ACE-NCR-[email protected] #9
Baseband version:
12.56.60.25U _26.10.04.03 _M
Build number:
3.06.405.1 CL150597 release-keys
Browser version:
WebKit/533.1
I was going to attempt a full wipe, but I don't want to mess anything up. How would you recommend I proceed? I would like to load CWM onto the phone to make flashing a new ROM as familiar as possible. I was thinking about installing IceColdSandwich 8 AOKP, if that makes a difference. I also might try the most recent version of Android Revolution HD, since that's what she's used to. Whichever is more stable is what I will keep on the phone.
Again, your help is greatly appreciated. Mods, I understand that some of my questions have been answered in other threads, but I would appreciate if you would keep this thread open until I have a solution to my unique situation.
Thanks!
Mike
tri to install rom manager and flash recovery or you can try ron toolbox.
i use rom toolbox and it's working pretty good, i ca't boot in recovery using volume + power because volume button it working pretty hard.

when the phone is fully booted then choose to reboot in bootloader. From there u can choose recovery. If CWM is not there u can just flash it from command prompt. I would suggest u use 4ext Recovery that is far better than CWM in my opinion.
If the phone is already rooted but laggy maybe u can try to do a data and cache wipe...
^^ I don't have the option to reboot to bootloader, only a full power off. I will try a data and cache wipe, but I've only done it in CWM. I also know nothing about using 4ext, has never been mentioned in the Nexus forum.
How can I do a data and cache wipe without access to the bootloader? Can I just delete specific folders?
1.Power off the device
2.power on the device while holding volume down.
3.from bootloader choose recovery
4.proceed from there

That's the problem, when I power on the device while holding volume down, it just boots normally, not into the bootloader. No idea why this is the case.. I'm wondering if I should just do a factory data reset and go from there?
It sound like your volume button are broken =\
And can you boot into your Rom? and are you rooted?

Hi. If you can't reboot into recovery via pressing the volume and power button. Go to Settings and then Power. Unclick the Fast boot checkbox. Now power down the phone completely. And then press the volume and power button. You should now boot into recovery mode. Please click Thanks if this method works for you.

If You still can't reboot in hboot with volume down, You can do this...enable USB debugging, plug the phone to the PC as charge only and then open a CMD as admin and type adb reboot-bootloader, or better adb reboot recovery. In order to do that You must have the drivers installed. Have in consideration that if You don't have a working volume rocker You won't be Able to choose anything unless You use touch recovery.
try install this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1377757&highlight=4ext
all the information u can get from that page,,,,
The volume buttons do work, I can change the ringer volume no problem. I gave the phone back to her for now, but I will try again in a few days and report back. Thanks for all the help everyone.
Since it has a sense based rom, is fast boot turned off? Maybe the reason with difficulty in booting into boot. Though pulling battery should negate that.
Personally I would install 4ext app and recovery and use that
Heck you could use rom manager to boot you into recovery. Then manually wipe and install.

Avoid using from manager. It doesn't work well on this device. Use the 4ext recovery.

As has been mentioned already, did you pull the battery out and put it back in before trying to boot into recovery?
Also, make sure that she knows or saves her APN info which she uses with her carrier to access the internet. You can use APN Backup & Restore to save it as an xml file to your SD Card. It doesn't work with Ice Cream Sandwich (in case you flash an ICS rom) but you can manually read the saved xml file (on your pc) and enter the info from that.
This makes sure that you can reconnect to the internet according to your original phone and carrier data contract (regardless of what APNs happen to come with the new rom).
If I can't boot into recovery, pulling the battery out first and putting it back in works for me.
Choose a rom and download it to your SD Card beforehand too.
Well, thanks for your help guys, but she turned around and sold the phone for $150 yesterday =P
Appreciate your help! I may be in the HTC forums more often, looking at picking up a One X very soon.

Tried installing OTA on Rooted phone

Hi,
I had rooted my phone and was using a custom rom with android 2.3.7. Since the phone was lagging and slow, i though of downgrading to 2.1 OTA.
I flashed a 2.1 OTA file via the recovery mode. Now the phone is not booting up and also not entering the recovery mode. While trying to enter the recovery mode, a RED TRIANGLE and an exclamation mark is what is showing. At this point, if i press volume up button and power button together, its going into the Android system recovery mode.
Also i'm able to get into the FastBoot Mode by pressing volume down and power button together. But i've no idea how to use these modes (FastBoot and Android System Recovery).
Please help me out in recovering my phone..
Thanks in advance
I had the same problem, I couldn´t install the official software any more.
I advice you to install HEROINE ++, if you want the stock HTC rom without all the bloatware and also more performance improvements.
I'm using elelinux, with android 2.3.7 and I can tell you, it works like a charm.
And another reason why I would advice you to use elelinux is because android 2.1 doesn't support much apps anymore. Most usefull apps require at least android 2.2. So you should really consider staying at 2.3.7 and then with elelinux.
Cheers.

Well that's one of the perks of flashing a 3.xx.xxx.x ROM on 1.xx.xxx.x(4.4.2) firmware. You get to have extremely long boot up times and you won't have a proper working radio which leaves you with no wifi, data, gps, bluetooth...
Your OTA probably didn't work because of a custom recovery, not because it was rooted. Root does NOT prevent OTA updates from installing, though you might lose root access after the OTA.
If you're stuck at Boot screen hold Volume UP + Power button for 10seconds, as soon as the screen goes black press volume Down + Power button to enter into Bootloader.
Flash a custom recovery like TWRP. Go into recovery and restore a nandroid backup for your device.
first thx alot for replaying
i already got TWRP installed but the screen is stock on boot screen but still manage on the back ground to load my current rom as i'm hearing the log in sound of the rom :S

By the look of things you are booted in OS but have no screen, hence why try and hold power button in and randomly tap to shut off?
I told you already to Hold Volume UP + Power button for about 10seconds and then hold volume down + power to enter bootloader.
You can of course also just plug it in and try to reboot to bootloader using adb, if you have USB debugging enabled. adb reboot bootloader
As already said just hold power and volume up for around 12 seconds then immediately press and hold power and volume down. This will always get you into the boot loader.
However if adb is working just use the command above. Reflash the original boot.img and you should be good.

Use that to get back to the stock rom for your phone. Then after installing the right one, get the OTA

Never leave your device with an empty battery. In any circumstances.
Because you might not be able to charge it. Recover the device while you have some power on your battery.
Remember, this is a unibody device. It's not so easy to pull out the battery.

[Q] Keep getting recovery instead of download mod

Hi,
I'm trying to upgrade the phone so I can get a new android version to play pokemon go on for my son.
I have tried pressing volume +- down , power volume +, and power volume -.
Everything I tried gets me to the standard recovery.
This is a non-modded phone.
Any ideas?
I have an option in the recovery mode to apply update from ADB. That knocks out odin but I'm not sure if the default android recovery will work for that.
Any suggestions?
Hello, I don't know if you are still having trouble, but to enter recovery mode you must hold volume up and volume down while plugging in a USB cable (one that is plugged into a computer). You can find the latest stock update, Jelly Bean, for this device here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2226886
However, I believe Pokemon Go requires Android Kitkat or newer so you may need a custom ROM. If you decide to install a custom ROM you should still flash the newest stock update via Odin first to ensure your device is fully updated. Although I am not entirely certain if Pokemon Go will work on a custom ROM, as you may run into problems with SafetyNet.
I wish you the best of luck . Let me know if you need any more help.

The device is starting with MIUI RECOVERY MODE 5.0 every time.

Hi there, So I rooted my Device Poco M2 Pro without TWRP watching some random Youtuber (This Video). But After a few weeks, I got bored and tried to Unroot it by Completely uninstalling Magisk. So after pressing the uninstall button it rebooted my phone and my phone started with MIUI RECOVERY 5.0 I tried several methods to exit that recovery mode but none of them worked, finally after 15 min of struggle and anxiety "Long press (power button + Vol - key)" saved my life, but now every time I reboot my device or power it on that MIUI RECOVERY 5.0 shows up and I've to repeat the same step again and again. It's frustrating . I know I messed up so can you please help me to remove that RECOVERY MODE 5.0. I'm totally new to this android stuff so please save my life.
