It looks like the "nothing working" items are all root mods or apps that require root. So applying William of Occam's famous principle, the single explanation for everything that's been described would be if the rooting itself didn't actually work. That may be wrong, but from the information given so far it's the simplest explanation. So please provide as much information as you can about what you've done, including what tests you've done to confirm root, and what exactly happens when you try to do the things that don't work (and how you do them)?

As said above, the commonest reasons people install Lucky Patcher are things that the forum rules forbid discussion of. Hence specific help with that app is difficult to offer, but I suspect that dealing with your problem in general would resolve your issues there.

Yes, an alert notification will remain until dismissed.

If you want something harder to ignore I use Snooze It, which is a separate app that provides full screen/repeating alarms with flexible snoozing. If you leave your calendar app's notifications on you can have both.

According to Reviews of Xiaomi phones they are a high quality phone introduced to the market to compete with Apple and other high priced brands.at lower prices and the manufacturer only makes 6% on sales.I also have the Redmi Note 7 which I've also been very pleased with.

How do I boot my mi phone into recovery mode?


Press the Power and Volume Up buttons at the same time. Then release the Power button first when you see the white Mi logo. Don't release the Volume Up button until you've entered the Mi-Recovery mode.

This Mode was easier to get into than Safe Mode.
I was able to get into Safe Mode once only and I wonder if it's because my phone does NOT show Redmi Note 7.
My screen shows Redmi - then MIUI comes up. Very tricky.
I did get into Safe Mode again but it reminds me of the Samsung Galaxy S4 trying to get into safe mode>

Hi, sorry I'm late in my reply.
The operation to set the Fingerprint Lock takes quite a few minutes. You are first required to set either a Pattern, PIN or Password. This is essential to be able to unlock the phone if your Fingerprint is not detected. When you are told to place your finger in the detector on the back. Then your finger print is shown on screen, you will feel a vibration - remove your finger - then place it back in the same place - another vibration - and you keep doing that and following the onscreen instructions until you see a large Check mark (Tick) on the screen.
This operation will take quite a few minutes as the whirls on your finger are recorded in several sequences. the final operation before the big tick is to move your finger around in the detector to enable full recognition of your fingerprint.
IT DOES WORK!!
Hope this helps as I did this when I first bought my phone and thought that one placement of my finger was all that was needed. WRONG!!!
The instructions above will enable the Fingerprint Lock to be set correctly.

Further clarification:

When the phone goes to SLEEP, the fingerprint lock will open the phone for you.
If the phone is switched OFF ( Powered down) and you Power the phone on again, you need to use the PIN, Password or Image you created to UNLOCK the phone.

In Settings > Sound & vibration > Silent/DND > check in Regular?

Yeh, it sounds like you got a few problems there.

But if the phone has been rooted and compromised by undesirable third-parties. Definitely replace it with a new phone that isn't rooted, and do NOT let it out of your sight. and do NOT let any other person plug your phone into their "Kali Linux laptop" or whatever.

Also suggest you make new accounts for it as well, e.g. Google etc. Use good strong passwords, and enable two-factor authentications.

Hello everyone who answered me I'm sorry I haven't answered and said thank you for the replies but for some reason my notifications stopped coming to my email and I thought I had only had the first couple of replies. So thank you.
I have taken it all on board and seem to be getting somewhere a bit now.
I'm also totally hopeless at posting on forums so goodness knows what will happen when I get going.

Also, I am looking for a very large Android phone
at the moment I have got a Huawei 20 x which is huge but I need to replace it.
but I'm wanting to go for something with a stylus like the new Samsung S22 Ultra which seems to be about the biggest I can see.
there doesn't seem to be many about that are actually advertised as being able to use a stylus.
I don't know if you can use a stylus with most phones if they are touch screen???

Can anyone point me towards a huge smartphone, preferably with a stylus or capability for, if not with a stylus then just a massive phone, 5g and at least 128gb?

I'll see your "maybe" and raise you a "buh-bye".

SMS and MMS messages are not stored in a folder as a file or set of files, but as entries into a protected user database. Performing the factory reset overwrote that database with a fresh empty copy. It's gone.

Thanks for posting your fix. I hope that it might help another in a similar situation.

^yea, what they said

Even if your data plan has higher allowances for hotspot data, it would put a serious strain on your phone after even just a couple hours. ANd heat is HORRIBLE for your battery in general.

Yes it is a far complicated app though, Thom did an amazing spot on description of it a while ago he said "Well with Textra on it's own can sheild everything and have such an unquie shape to the app...." Something alongst those lines. Still it works all the time and do not delay it

Updates often had an "optimising apps" stage on other phones which would happen after the reboot (and could be slow). I think the Pixels, with their A/B system partitions, do all of that stuff before the reboot.

It was never that fast on my Pixel 2, but as you could carry on using the phone while it was all happening that wasn't a big issue.

Thanks for the info, Hadron. Its the same with the Pixel 6 Pro. You can use the phone while it's optimizing.

I'm a big fan of Loreena. Great singer!

the exclamation mark could be anything

that is how it works on my z fold 3....you have to swipe first then either enter your pattern. but i use the fingerprint reader which you do not have to swipe first. just use the reader to unlock the phone.

so you will either have to get used to swiping first or try the fingerprint reader or get a new phone....LOL

I had the exact same problem. Never thought to go poking around with a paperclip to hunt two magnets which where pressed right up against the tablet. What kind of shit sack degenerate engineer puts useless magnets directly in line with a device? Tablet now works as it should.
