The new year came, Shududu here to wish you a Happy New Year Friends of Bo!

In the previous article in this blog, I mentioned several times my red rice Note (Code dior, red rice Note referred to below will do this code), but the narrative logic more confusing. So I smooth my ideas, the important issue boils down together, adding a lot of content not previously mentioned write this article.

A thing with a long time, will produce feelings. The red rice Note Although I was idle, but toss is still very interesting. But for some reason, if one wants to revive it, let it become a qualified spare machine, or qualified the main machine, need to face several problems.

system issue

Millet official this phone systems support up to MIUI 9, android version is 4.4.4. MIUI 9 can close about 70?f the ad, before it is better than the MIUI version too.

This phone using a high-pass processor, and may unlock fastboot miui in the original, therefore, the brush can be native Andrews. I have this phone toward the inside and outside of the native Android ROM release.

lineage OS, and its predecessor CyanogenMod, dior no official support. But on xda forum, it was released for development based on lineage OS unofficial (unoffical) version, which has dior ROM to be supported. Brush over the years a number of different packages, there are different versions of android.

Resurrection Remix, for dior been officially supported. I brushed it on android 6.0.1 package, very stable, obvious bug is open all and micro-letters related (such as opening Settings - Applications - micro-letters, or other permissions page tries to change permissions micro-letter), setting will collapse, this happens in all the above packages will be 6.0.1. Based on android 7.1.2 package, the main bug as camera fails to connect, can not touch the edge of the screen occasionally. The reason is that the bug appeared, millet official did not open source, leading developers do not know how to call the camera screen and fix the problem, only from other packages transplant-related procedures and tests, but without success.

Dior for the 8.1.0 package, none can be used normally.

I also had another brush ROM, such as ornate dotOS, which is based on version 7.1.2 of the final package; there is a stop of a more final version of the ROM is based on 7.1.2. These two packages, if not brush into GAPPS, the camera can be used normally. But the brush into the gapps, the camera malfunction. This failure, not the camera application failure, but the drive to hang, even with third-party camera software is not available. Sometimes the use of certain applications calling camera, can also cause this phenomenon.

Finally, I found a camera is basically no problem of ROM, is Resurrection Remix 5.8.0, based on android 7.1.1, the camera can not be used in case of occasional restart can be solved. OTA update detection system, detects a package has been deleted in order to prevent it continues to check for updates, tortured to death obsessive-compulsive disorder, so I use the built-in system functions uninstall the OTA.

I looked at high relevant forums inside and outside, see a lot of interest in this model of the user, to my surprise. This phone, since the release date, fast five years time. There are many users use it as the main machine. I looked in the territory of rogue family bucket already teach users how to "behave", the user compromises, had to quickly replace the phone higher configuration. When these rogue APP problems, such as Caton, users first to vent their anger on the phone, rather than these rogue applications. I have solved this problem for a fellow, one of which is not necessary to uninstall the use of domestic rogue software, mobile instant and smooth, the contrast is obvious.

But foreign Android software ecosystem is very good, because Google application store management is quite strict. But I looked within specific network environment, allowing users to not work properly google play. If I looked inside the user to install the software using technical means play from google, will find that domestic software version submitted to the google play, and I looked inside release version, there are a number of different, even almost completely different (almost completely different in APP , wifi most representative master key). This is not difficult to understand why a large number of foreign users still using this phone five years ago as the main machine.

In addition, different current situation with me towards the territory of the majority of dual-card user, overseas relatively developed areas seem most people are single card. This is because their area for work and commuting to distinguish the boundaries are very clear, except for very special work (such as the police), contact staff if the leadership after work, no matter by what means (such as phone calls, e-mail, send whatsapp messages, etc.), they will be penalized even jail. But I not only do not limit the territory of North Korea, but proud, which also resulted in the majority of dual-card user, also causing social software significantly inflated the number of accounts (the number of social software platform accounts for the number of account holders with a social software platform accounts the ratio of less than 50?

When using MIUI, there is a significant problem: the USB jack into the computer, cell phone screen almost malfunction phone using a data cable, serious Caton, which will open this APP APP encountered when sliding the slide; if within the APP, also not slide properly. Various Internet search, while consulting rice, say let the replacement of data lines. I use other data lines, the same problem occurs. After the brush into the native Android, this problem no longer occurs.

Hardware obstacles

End of play

The first common problem of this phone: plug the end the problem.

Here I am talking about a common problem, referring to the common problem of a large number of users to use the mobile phone models appear, but that does not mean other brand mobile phone models also have this problem.

Use more than two years later, the phone plug end problems will arise. Mainly as follows: when inserted into the charging port, it is necessary to adjust the posture of the initial data line to charge or transfer data properly, it changes a little, will not work properly; late various adjustment positions, will not work correctly. When charging, shaking lines, mobile phone charging prompt appears, but just let go, can not be blamed for the charge.

In a shopping site, I bought a plug end of dior, 9 yuan shipping. The price is certainly not original, besides so many years, the original is almost impossible to exist. Open the phone, the tail plug and replace the small plate. The replacement procedure is very simple: demolition of the screw, cable removed, replaced with a new plug end, cable installation, mounting screws. No glue around the mobile phone, no heating with a hair dryer, do not need to fill plastic.

Side buttons

This phone is the second common problem: the side key issues. Side keys, the power key to use the most. So widespread are the power key problems. Big probability of the emergence of this problem I was shocked, mobile phones around with the same people who have this problem.

That year, around this phone with people who taught me a method, using a thin piece of paper pad under the cover of the power key contacts, and even he showed me exactly the same with a small piece of paper he used. Later, I went by the online guide, ignite plastic bags, plastic drop trickles back cover Power key contacts there. Until now, there are traces of the year to do so.

Figure 2: specially treated rear power key contacts

Behind the power button issue somehow restored. But the volume + button out of order. Recently I found a post on the Internet, to teach you how to repair the power button failure, but because of three buttons use the same method of manufacturing, it is also valid for the volume keys. Scratch the above skin with a knife, remove the inside shrapnel, rubbed with a rubber repeated a few times, put it back. Because skin has been cut can not be undone, so cut a small piece of transparent stickers there. Perfect solution.

camera

Camera protective cover is fixed to the rear shell. However, it lost, can not be undone. Disappeared behind the back cover, I can not find it.

To prevent tampering camera, the camera I and the rear cover, the gap between the paper sheet inserted into the motherboard, outside transparent glue. In the central position of the camera, I'll clear plastic bypassed a small hole to prevent the effects of camera effects.

screen

The phone with a screen about a year on aging. Screens everywhere, yellow, and occasionally can not touch in some places, there are a lot of dead pixels. My father out of the red rice Note 1S (code: gucci) is not the problem.

I will replace that gucci screen on my phone, followed by another change back. Painted native Android later, unable to touch fewer places, if not touch occurs, the red mouth where a hot air blowing, it will solve the problem. Although there are many places screen looks yellow, but does not affect use.

The use of

After dior brush into native Andrews, increased freedom. Native Android gives users maximum freedom, the user can select any of the features and functions using the system according to their preferences. However, we can not use this phone without installing any third party APP, it is impossible not to see the time, the Internet.

Section (not named, did not say nationality) third party APP, the system open API such as the use of excessive, resulting in a problem Google developer terms of unexpected, it can be said to be part of the APP playing bad. Like on the floating window, Google had wanted to apply for notifying the good results ...... with the android version of the upgrade, Google had added access control, especially after version 7.x, 8.x versions even in adding the ability to control running in the background (custom-made UI has been castrated out of this feature).

First, let's lock screen page. Lock screen wallpaper page, you can unlock the desktop after a long press to open the wallpaper menu replacement. If there is a notification is displayed below the time. If you set a password or graphics to unlock, also free to choose whether to display a notification in the lock screen page; if the user is willing to display notifications lock screen page, you can also choose whether to display sensitive content (through testing, including but not limited to the content of messages, micro-channel chat content, etc.).

Figure 5: Setting the security lock, hide sensitive lock screen notifications

Second, the notification settings. Native Android 7.1.2, the default opened a "strong control notice" in the 7.1.2 version, open the Settings - Notifications - the gear icon in the upper right corner - strong control notification, you can see the open state. Strong notification control is divided into seven levels, from 0-6, the importance gradually. When the "strong notice Control" is turned on, the system allows all the importance of the application themselves, to control notifications. This gives an opportunity to a number of applications, thereby to affect the user experience. Close "strong notice Control", you can control a single application, whether to display notifications. In 6.0.1 and 8.1.0, does not have this feature, you can customize notification settings directly. Whether or not open "notice strong control" can be applied to control how long the ring or vibrate once, but the rogue domestic invalid.

Third, volte and vowifi. For native Andrews, if the phone hardware support volte or vowifi, this function will be integrated in the system, whether it is domestic or foreign towards me ROM was like that. Some people think less region abroad using TDD-LTE, the Internet openly claimed ROM does not integrate volte, which is spreading rumors. However, very few developers might forget to integrate this feature, but not difficult to solve: the brush into the magisk, painted into voenabler module, you can solve this problem. But note two things: (1) I have no territory towards vowifi, so even turn on this feature is not available; (2) if the phone hardware does not support, even if the brush into the module, this feature is turned on, also can not be used.

Fourth, to curb rogue APP. If only Clear recent process function, you can not completely eliminate rogue APP. APP use several of these processes, or even a dozen processes to guard themselves, if there is one or several processes is turned off, the other process will start it immediately, avoid being killed. The best way is to use black threshold. If you want to use, please also search for their own use. Spend it, the system smooth scary, whether it is a native Android, or custom-made UI is true (except yunos). Special attention, android 8.x although the added backstage control function, but some API does not close, rogue APP help limit this part of the API system to avoid the background, so it is necessary to use a black threshold.

Fifth, FCM push. I brush into the system Gapps. As the mobile phone hardware limitations, only brush into the Pico version, comes with the Google play service and Google play store. Therefore, you can use GCM service. I found that the phone can connect FCM services. I tested with micro letter. Micro-letter download from Google play store, support FCM push. The micro-channel main background processes cut off, but retain some services, FCM can use push notifications. I found the FCM relevant page, the system does receive the message micro letter, in case I do not have permission to turn off any notification of the micro-channel, micro-channel and no pop-up notification message. I do not understand the reason for this phenomenon occurs.

Native Android version, Resurrection Remix gives a lot of settings, can any details of the system are tailor-made, including, but not limited to: unlock the upper left corner is displayed the name of the operator; customized operator name; customize many other text font, size, color; additional use of various keys; double-click to open or close the power key to turn on the camera; and the like. The dazzling variety of custom settings. Other native Android package, in addition to the option System Preferences, there is no other additional settings.

Finally, look at hyun ~
