You mean I should START AFRESH? cry

The content of one of my apps alone is 1.5gb.

I would need at least 12gb of data to START AFRESH. That is going to cost me like 5k plus.

Might try it next week if I get access to free wifi.


The bootloader fastboot rom reminds me of another problem with the device. It can't enter fastboot.

If I switch off the device and then hold the volume down and power button, it shows the fastboot logo briefly and that's all. Why that behavior, IDK.

Don't reset yet until you figure out why you can't enter fastboot mode.

About the fastboot logo showing briefly, I've experienced that before. It turned out i had the USB connection on Transfer Files instead of charge device.

How to fix it: Plug your phone to the PC via USB, Click on the Connection in the notification panel and make sure it is in Charge device only. Unplug, Turn it off, enter fastboot mode and plug it in to your PC and it should stay in fastboot mode as long as it is plugged in.

Hello guys, please I wanna know if I'll still be able to update via OTA If I flash cam2api..
I'm not flashing the twrp recovery, just booting into it via fastboot.
I wanna know if it's Safe to simply flash cam2api and still be able to do OTA updates.
Re: ### Xiaomi Thread For Tweaking Of Phones & Help Spot ### by Essont(m): 11:49am On Nov 24, 2018

Yes you can and you'll need to re-enable camera2api after updating.

You'll be refunded immediately if timer stops, but seller is definitely going to ship before the then, he/she is at a loss here.

Update!!!



I tried flashing the cam2api after booting into recovery via fastboot.
It was successful according to the message displayed, but after rebooting system, I used the manual camera app to see if everything was ticked green, but unfortunately, they all were marked red.

So I'm thinking prolly I'll flash the recovery image instead before flashing cam2api, instead of just booting into twrp directly from fastboot command.
I hope there's not going to be any disadvantage or bricking after flashing twrp, cuz I may need to update some time later.

This time, I flashed in the dummy file, even flashed the twrp boot into the device, flashed cam2api also.
But upon all, when I used the manual camera compatibility app to check, it still showed red ticks to show that cam2api hasn't been enabled.
And when I tried booting into twrp recovery again by pressing volume up and power button, it booked into stock recovery.
I don't know why the twrp isn't staying
Will I need to flash lazy flasher??

Flash twrp again, and don't reboot. Instead after flashing twrp, use it to flash lazy flasher before rebooting.

Download TWRP for your device, camera2api.zip, manual camera compatibility test app(play store).

Flash TWRP(You can check Google for steps on how to do this) , then boot into TWRP by pressing the vol+ and power buttons simultaneously, click on install, locate the camera2api.zip file you downloaded earlier and click on it to flash. After successfully flashing it, you will reboot your phone and check if camera2api is enabled with the MANUAL CAMERA COMPATIBILITY TEST APP. You will need to have something like the pics below
