the oxygen loader is unlocked
but has problems loading roms
oh yeah, some come unlocked and ends up bricking you if you load it
others can allow a specially modded version of TWRP to be installed and therefore allow some official ROMs but it's hit-or-miss
scary
i have no idea what is going with xiaomi phones anymore
Yup. Geekbuying do a lot of scummy shit too, such as selling refurbished devices as brand new, fake battery banks, etc.
Surprised they haven't been sued by Xiaomi for knowingly doing this shit.
Xiaomi released like 16 phones in 2017.
at least you bought it with paypal
i'm wondering how's the a1 port like
since they are similar devices, could you actually get official updates too
from google
but you have to flash mia1 firmware onto mi5x
Yeah. If they don't work with me via email I'll have to force it through paypal support with heavy evidence and proof of bullshittery.
for fingerprint
ye
and goodix fp doesnt work
haha fuck goodix honestly
straight up fuck goodix
wtf is goodix?
goodix and something else
Fpc
the goodix has literally no kernel sources
or anything
so they have to steal shit from miui
it's a bitch to get working on every new android version
recently just got fixed for my phone on android 8.1
ew. I imagine they're irresistably cheap for companies to use though
no it's just what's available
xiaomi don't like using them but they have to make phones and fpc aren't exactly always available
it's like on the redmi note 4/x where there are two camera sensors
sony and ov
ov one is shit
but it's a lottery on which one youll get
i think the camera is defective
on my phone
fml I thought only GPUs and CPUs were allowed to play the silicon lottery -_-
👌
honestly
