The Xiaomi Redmi thread

[banana55]

--------------

Thank you very much for your kind patience and clear guidance
Sorry for all the confusion i had caused you.
Now i can install and move apps to the SD Card using the System Apps Remover.

I run Root Checker and it says my "device has root access", so i presume everything is ok.
Thanks again and may good luck follow you always for your kind deed.
Have a nice day.

You are welcome and I am glad to learn that everything is working as intended now. The fact that apps can be moved to SD is telling that device is successfully rooted.

A small but perhaps critical tip for everyone when moving apps to SD is to keep GOOGLE KEYBOARD app within phone memory, regardless whether you are utilizing it as default keyboard or not. I figured out the lonely and painful way through 10 days of troubleshooting that when GK is moved to SD, the built in Weather app will not auto update temperature nor location at its predetermined intervals. Manual update by opening the app will still function however.

If weather feature matters, take heed. I have no clues to its correlation dependancy between WEATHER app and GK, and it might also cause other apps notification functions to also cease as I've experienced with FB, CNBC, Clash of clans, etc.

Curious and adventurous minds please feel free to test to confirm my findings if one fancy. Solution is simple as moving GK back to internal memory where it was meant to only be.

I use swiftkey btw as keyboard.

Been trying whole night....

Takes 3-5 working days. In real life, probably 3-6 working and non-working days(including Sat and Sun, there is delivery too! Miss my Redmi delivery last Sunday and had to wait till this Tues to get it..)


I thought they don't deliver on Sunday?

No. You don't understand. The native ringtone folder does not work. The folder that MIUI looks at is hidden within the MIUI main folder. Shifting files around is something most people don't expect to do and may be confused by.

It took me about five minutes and some googling to figure out. It was my moms phone anyway so I just did the bare minimum to get it going. It was definitely annoying though.

okay, glad that you figured it out. Anyway i wasn't referring to MIUI in my post. But yeah that's alright. Just my thoughts on how it should work.

They outsource to external contractors who do deliver on Sunday. But no guarantees by them too. Guess also depends if the agents wanna deliver on Sunday too.

Yes, the contracted company even delivered the goods beyond 7pm. I got mine at about 7pm+(was told they will deliver between 7-10pm). Happy to receive the package...!!

Not at the moment.

Maybe you can give suggestions at en.miui.com forums for developers to create such a function in the future updates.

Read in other posts, try deleting all previous messages from the bank first.
