Mi 5S Fingerprint doesn't work

hello i'm mi 5s 4gb/128gb user
yesterday, i was using cyanogenmod 13 but i want to use miui again
so i restored nendroid backup from twrp recovery
that was start of diaster..
after this. fingerprint scanner mostly doesn't work
sometimes fingerprint scanner work correctly after reboot, it doesn't work.. and sometimes... it works...
i did many many method (global rom, china rom via edl mode, fastboot mode) but everything has same result,
so i looked at my logcat
it says
QFP : QfpThreadMatch::execute: match result -3: QFP_INSUFFICIENT_COVERAGE
with my finger or not logcat said same result
why my fingerprint scanner doesn't work?
is it hardware issue?
sorry for poor english

yesterday, i was using cyanogenmod 13.......is it hardware issue? .......

Maybe placebo effect but people are saying Global rom had improved fingertip detection rate.
If i were you, i would flash as stock as possible, recovery, bootloader, lock status, everything, just to determine software versus hardware failure.
Hope for the best, as this kind of life cycle premature failure freak me out, first stucked autofocus sensor now this!!!

You change the software and then ask if it´s hardware?

I had a problem which seemed to be hardware related after flashing the Chinese developer ROM and then later restoring a Miui EU ROM from a backup. My problem was with audio - there was no sound coming from the speaker or headphone output. I did diagnostic tests which failed - indicating a hardware problem.
It was only after re flashing the EU Miui ROM that the problem was resolved.

i solved it
i think this was problem of driver
so i needed rollback of driver
first. i flashed 6.10.13 eu rom over 6.12.29
it occurs bootloop
second. i flashed 6.12.29 over 6.10.13 again. and fingerprint works like charm again!

Exists the cyanogenmod for Mi5s?

Still very buggy. We have to wait for xiaomi to release the source code to get nice CM .
The fingerprint happened to me too, it just stopped working.
Flash the stable global using fastboot, it will erase everything, and will be great again.
Don't restore with Titanium backup, I had all kind of weird problems everytime I tried.

One of the worst fp sensors ever. I tried all the tricks mentioned in several places, detection rate stays very low.

3g/4g also GSM not working

3g connection never connect, 4g sometimes connected but for seconds like ten seconds, i mean not stable, very unstable and very limited connection. Its so annoying. Any suggestions? Please help me.
My device info: mi 5s 4gb/32gb, miui 9.2.1.0 global stable.
Edit: gsm also isnt working well. Testing a couple things my friends and my family couldnt reaching me. Gsm signal indicator is showing full but not working properly.

What twrp version, from which rom did you switch to MIUI? And also what MIUI rom did you flash, EU MIUI, or official?

Hmm that is infamous "stable" global beta rom... You cannot download it on official site, but you can only get it by OTA, and only selected users had that option.
My advice is to back up everything and do factory reset. It is not strange that something gets messed up while updating MIUI8 to MIU9..

[ROM][GSI] Official Android Q

BETA Version
Ready to try?
I start....
https://developer.android.com/preview/gsi-release-notes

Is very difficult to make it stable....
Wifi connection and screen lock password issue,
second reboot impossible....
But nice to see this evolution.
Stay tuned, work on it....

Booted googles Android Q gsi. Everything works fine, mobile data, calls, Bluetooth etc. Only secured WiFi is messed up can't connect. Reboot bootloop issue is fixed by deleting vendor/app/
Steps I did was,
-have a fresh install of miui 10.3 (from xiaomi.eu) on to system
-flash Q gsi to system partition on twrp
-after gsi flash, reboot twrp then mount vendor and through twrps file manager locate vendor/app and delete it.
-reboot
And done bootloop after restart issue should be home.
Things I found are sounds are very static and distorted I got it fixed my flashing viper4android and you'll need root for that. Use magisk 19. Also I'm using global version. I'm sure chinese version will be fine but again I'm not sure

The official support would be nice. I understand the mi9, but i don't see the point i mix 3 5g. the user base is too low. It went on sale only week ago. 5g is still few years ahead from global adoption. Mix 3 4g would be better choice for beta testing.

Same here, tried to get it to work but constantly bootlooped

Anyone tried the latest beta?

But...by the end of the year Android Q will be officially avaible as OTA update for mi mix 3 and other Xiaomi phones as confirmed by them. So why messing things up with unifficial GSI "just to try" a new release? I'm not blaming anyone who wants to, but it is really necessary? It's so terrible to stay on MIUI rather than stock or so bad to stay on Pie (both stock or custom) rather than on a newer OS version?
Personally i prefer a stable software (or an almost bug free one at least) than an unstable one with possibly many non working/partially working features. What do you think?
P.s before the bull**** storm by someone:
1) Yes, i used custom roms before on other devices, i liked them and they always made my devices better in terms of performances and upgraded them to the latest OS avabile when the official support ended. (Galaxy SII Plus, Galaxy Tab S2, Honor 8)
2) You can do whatever you want with your device, i really couldn't care less, but wer're on a forum, i'm just taking a conversation to hear other opinions about GSI (or other custom roms) for this devices wich i found to be very fast, complete and battery friendly even without them.
3) Thank you

I couldn't care less

New Oneplus Owner... Where to Start?

Hey everyone, just got my 7T. I've heard great things about Oxygen, and it seems like everything is optimized. I'm just not sure where to go from here. I'm coming from a LeEco LE Pro 3, and the ROM path has been the only option (android 6 was the last official version for that phone, and we have 10 via ROM now). Is there any reason to try a different ROM on this phone? What about different kernels? Is there any good reason to leave stock? I'll definitely root my phone, but I'm not sure about the kernel/ROM changes.
I appreciate your input!

I like Oxygen very much and flashed arters kernel only for better battery life. I tried the custom ROMs too, but battery wasn't that good. If you are happy with Oxy stay on it. If you need some more feature, take a custom rom. It depends always on what you want and what you like.

I've always been an AOSP guy, but OOS on 7T is good. all you customization you need get be added through gravitybox, renovate ICE. Other than always on display, I don't see what aosp can offer on top of OOS. Last I tried, AOSP had some auto brightness and fingerprint issue. with OOS you still have face unlock which AOSP don't. you can also add horizon lights with renovate ICE.

You'll know if you will like OOS or not.
If you plan on going the ROM route, try Omni or Tresk. I'm currently running Tresk and it's excellent! Better battery than OOS, AOD, better theming, and overall cleaner "Google" interface.

Maybe with Stock OOS, but you will definitely get better battery results with OOS + arters kernel. Even idle drain is less with it. This time Oxygen is very hard to beat.

Thanks for all the replies. I'm going to stick to stock for now and try the custom kernel for better battery life.

I have not tried this combination. Too many deal breakers for me with OOS so I jumped quickly.

I advice you to flash OxygenOS Open beta 3. It's a bit more stable for my 7T.
OxygenOS already feels like a custom rom, so I don't really feel the need to flash 3rd party roms.

Flashing steps for OnePlus 7T:
(For the first time installation)
Things you will need:
Payload Dumper
https://t.me/treskmod/190469
Bat file that wipes and flashes to both sides on initial install
https://t.me/treskmod/195379
Current Stable HD65AA Firmware on both sides, it has been reported that BA (EU) firmware has issues with FP.
- local upgrade or flash OOS firmware to side A
- reboot to OOS
- local upgrade or flash OOS firmware to side B
- reboot to bootloader
- dump latest treskmod payload.bin using payload dumper
- place the bat file in your output directory, or wherever you decide to keep images
- run the bat (this will wipe, a wipe is necessary on initial installation coming from OOS, after that, just OTA)
the bat file can be modified to suit any particular need.
- reboot to treskmod and enjoy
- root
- either wait for me to to post a patched boot.img, which you can then "fastboot boot nameofimage.img" in fastboot mode, then patch your own, or just make your own patched boot with magisk manager. (make sure preserve avb and preserve encryption are both checked)
- when taking an OTA, once its finished, don't reboot, and have magisk patch the inactive slot, then reboot.

Question Xiaomi.eu for mi 11x(Aliothin)

So from miui 13 xioami.eu is not working properly with mi11x (aliothin).
As xioami.eu refuses to support mi11x though alioth and aliothin are the same device.
(They said and I am quoting here "This is intentional. The ROM didn't have proper support for aliothin to begin with (when you say "it was working fine" you don't really know what you're talking about because you didn't notice the issues). We removed the remaining aliothin junk. So yeah, it's not meant to work on aliothin.")
Anyone have any miui 13 custom rom suggestion? Not based on china base

I also ended up in a boot loop, got "nv data corrupted msg" in miui recovery. Flashed miui official V13.0.4.0.SKHINXM via usb otg and booted successfully.
What's slot A/B in TWRP?
xiaomi.eu was in slot A and miui official in slot B.
I'm not able to flash xiaomi.eu android 12, not able to install from otg. Wiped slot A but not able to copy zip to data.
Currently using android 13 official.

Yeah, miui eu doesn't support aliothin, which i find so awkward.
But i managed to flash miui eu latest, and everything works fine except for the camera. It's not usable at all. When you take a shot , the app closes and nothing is saved.
No matter what app you use for camera , it's the same thing.

The display setting will not have the 120hz option.
This happens when xiaomi.eu deliberately removes code related to aliothin. I still don't understand the reason behind it. And it's just frustrating.
And nobody should recommend xioami.eu for mi11x.
Hoping other custom MIUI in future that will support mi11x.

I own Mi 11x and I currently have Xiaomi.eu 12.5.18 stable installed. And the battery life is terrible
I was thinking of updating to miui13 hoping for better performance and I came across this thread.
What do you guys suggest?
This device is great except the proximity sensor and battery life, which is a serious turn down

Well for battery life you can root and install naptime + servicely. This helps a lot in aosp rom.
Also lower the clock speed of every cpu cluster by 100-200 (max). For this use franko kernel manager.
You can this on miui also. I never did this in miui.
Basically there are **** ton off background services and wake locks prevent your phone from sleeping and consumes more and more battery. Above mentioned apps let you choose how android behaves when screen is off also limiting unnecessary background processes.

Well most banking apps working with magisk + shamiko + safteynet fix.
Here's a tutorial. What banking apps do you use? Most upi apps will work.
Naptime works without root using some adb commands. But I don't know how usefull it will be. Because it doesn't freeze the background services when not in use.
If you don't want to root and want a good battery backup. Stock is the best option. Just use some debloating tools to uninstall unnecessary mi services.
Other wise you can try aosp + kernel. I don't if that will pass safteynet.
