Redmi Note 4 Aggressively kills all background apps. Solution? - Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers

The consequences of the eagerness of MIUI to kill all background apps means that Facebook Messenger does not function as required. The application is always killed, meaning I cannot receive messages unless I am on the app.
It seems as though every app is immediately killed once it is no longer on the screen. I know this because if I open a webpage on Chrome, and then use the "Recents" button to switch to another app, then use it to switch back to Chrome, the webpage I opened needs to reload, due to Chrome being killed.
Things that I have tried
MIUI Optimization - Off
Don't Keep Activities - Off
Background process limit - Off
Memory optimization - Off
Autostart - On for all apps
Battery Saver - Off
Power settings - Balance and Performace both tried
Manage apps' battery usage - Off
The problem persists!
I would be incredibly grateful if somebody could help me solve this problem!

Hi, what ROM are you running? I believe they enabled Zram in a recent build & your problem is discussed here:
https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/rom-xiaomi-eu-stable-for-redmi-note-4.34349/
I personally am running the Xiaomi.eu 8.1.3.0 Stable & don't have any such issue.

Thanks for your reply!
I'm running MIUI Global 8.0.5.0.0 (MBFCNDG)

Yeah okay so that's an unofficial vendor ROM..., just do a flash & see how you go.

How would I flash the ROM? The phone currently does not allow me to enter recovery mode, and the bootloader is locked. Once I receive the authorisation to unlock the bootloader, what do I do to flash it?
Sorry to bother you so much!

Btw, you can flash the China Developer ROM now while you are waiting for your Unlock code, but up to you if it's your primary device...

try the following:
settings > battery > Power > Power options (the gear icon at the top right corner) >clear cache when device is locked = never

while surfing huawei china forums I found this custom Rom (http://cn.club.vmall.com/thread-2182114-1-1.html)
Did any one tried it .. and if yes what is your feedback about it ?
I haven't tried his newest ROM B008, but I have tried several of his older modded ROM for the X1. Issue I have is that I can't get google play store or google services to work. I've tried varies version of goole play store and google service framework, but never could get it to work. Split view is nice...but it isn't automatic, you have to manually select the windows; not as good as Samsung implementation, but better than nothing.

it is sweet, i m using it, only 2 points to note before flashing it:
1) u need to be already on the official B008 rom (otherwise u will get the write to cust error)
2) the bootloader of your X1 must be already unlocked (if not u cannot flash via ADB)
for those using non china 4G sim, u may also get android.phone.com FC-ing during initial boot, no amt of wiping DATA or Cache (of phone itself or apps e.g. contacts, phone etc the usual sugg when u google the problem) will work, in this instance, simply switch to airplane mode, proceed to connect the X1 to your wifi and go abt dong all the updates via Huawei app store, i m not sure which update cured the problem, but when I switch off airplane mode after that, the FC disappears .. YMMV

there is actually a very simple workaround for google services (other than google+, which there is another solution), and it doesnt involve 'hacking' or meddling with system files, rooting is not even needed (although KangVIP rom comes pre-rooted)
because even on china roms, Huawei has actually implemented the google framework within, all we need are the correct apps, simply launch the default Huawei Store (App Centre) and search for Google Play, GoogleCalendarSyncAdapter and GoogleContactsSynAdapter. After installation of Play, just launch it and install other Gapps u need from there.
Hi all,
Small point to note, somehow Google always translates the Chinese word "shua" literally as the verb "brush" but it actually means the verb "flash" in this context.
Note that translations of "shua ROM" will end up being "brush ROM" instead of "flash ROM".

Sorry, I really have no idea what I had done to result in the FCs disappearing. In fact, I wasnt expecting it to be.
My original intention was to play around with it and conduct some experimental tweaks since I was already on it before reflashing to get rid of the FCs.
One other thing that may have caused the FCs to go away is Xposed framework, you can try installing it.
The attached file below is an old version, install it then update to version 2.5.1 via the Xposed app; I also installed the App Settings module (version 1.8) for per app DPI setting. In fact, this is the tweak I wanted to try on EMUI 3.0 B008, it worked on EMUI 2.3 B010 and I was hoping for the same favorable result on EMUI 3.0. It did.
It was after the above that I re-enabled mobile/data and discovered to my surprise the FCs were gone.
YMMV.
Unfortunately I couldn't make it so I'm back to use EMUI 2.3 B010.
Thank you for suggest me some methods.
ps / I got sme results. with Australian Boost sim is worked but Japan Softbank and Singapore StarHub SIM is won't work.
@potatohead
Today I try fix again then suddenly your method is work for my phone. I carefully follow methods then work.
Thanks.

I don't have this device and, since there's no Official LineageOS released for this device, I can only assume that you had installed an Unofficial one.
Without knowing which one you used, your best bet is to post this question within the following Unofficial LineageOS 15.1 thread that you had installed on your device for support and guidance.

I've made a Flashable zip that enables the trusted face option inside smart lock, I've linked it here
I tried it on Pie and its working just fine, Feel fry to try it for yourself and PM me if you get any problems.
Also You don't have to be rooted for this to work.

I flashed the zip, it did unlock the face unlock but it's not working. The camera's infrared lights up but it shuts down quickly and doesn't unlock.
Never mind it works, but it needs a swipe to unlock, I ll see if that's a ROM specific thing, doesn't seem to have an option that toggles it either.

Where does the setting appear after flashing the zip? It's not under settings, security, smart lock with trusted devices etc.

I've tried EU miui from about 3 weeks ago, ROS from 2 weeks ago and since them am on mi-globe 9.5.30.
All ROMs were clean flashes from TWRP.
I formatted the device, made as clean an install as possible, my phone is decrypted, I am rooted with magisk 19.2 and I reinstalled everything from scratch.
Yet I am still having rare, but annoying 'whatsapp keeps crashing' errors,followed by a WhatsApp restart with many messages appearing in delay. I have WhatsApp locked, disabled miui optimization on it, tried all the tricks, and nothing...
This is something that has happened under eu miui and ROS as well and I have no idea why this is happening and how I can fix it.
Are you using Whatsapp with the new eu MIUI you suggested?

I solved the problem. It seems I manually select led a silence.ogg file for silencing the group notifications and it caused some sort of problem. Changing this to thebuilt in None option solved it completely.

I hope this fixes the lost data bug I've been experiencing, where you lose signal and when you regain it no data passes until you reboot or toggle data.
The software of this phone is terrible, i will never buy Xiaomi phone again ! From the beginning and even after updates i still have theses problems :
- No notifications on status bar, i must check notifications every time manually.
- When battery is low, i don't receive notifications, i checked and disabled all the power saving options but no luck.
- When phone switch from wifi to data, there's no internet i must switch data on/off every time.
- I must take the phone on my hand to get fingerprint detected.

I did find the disappearing notifications EXTREMELY annoying myself.
I only don't have that issue now because I unlocked bootloader and installed a custom ROM. Something I shouldn't have to do.
Also, they really should have built in a sort of pocket mode for the fingerprint sensor. That's how they did it with the Mate 20 Pro (how it should be!!)
switch to global beta. it's as stable as it gets. no issues with notifications and whatnot. im on 9.6.27 and super happy with the experience. no bootloader unlock needed either

If you come from EEA you have to install Global Stable for first using xiaomitool v2 (search it in Google), then you can install Global Beta through updater, directly on phone. No bootloader unlock needed in this way

[GUIDE] Bricked K20 Pro after flashing (raphaelin) 10.3.3

Hello Xda and K20 Pro-ians.
Just wanted to share with you what I did after accidentally selected “ clean all and lock” options during the process of putting in K20 Pro India ROM (raphaelin) 10.3.3 into my K20 Pro which was running on China (raphael) 10.3.14.
Started reading the forum and somehow TEST POINT Reset was my last option as I can’t boot into the ROM and was at the Recovery screen, Tried EDL as well still no go
I read through some post, and one of the members mentioned about using an older version of Unlocking application. Immediately, I tried all possible version that I could find and so far version “miflash_unlock-en-2.2.406.5” did the unlocking and straight went into the newly installed India ROM(raphaelin).
FYI. the latest version of MiUNlock doesn’t permit you to unlock bootloader process for another 30days (Mi Policies)
Steps Taken
1. Got my New Phone ( China Rom ) updated to version 10.3.14
2. Read through the post in XDA and begin ripping off my warranty -> Downloaded India Rom 10.3.3
3. Unlock Bootloader (waited for three days) -> starts flashing -> With Clean all and Lock option being checked! - FML!
4. Tried to unlock again with Miflash version 3~ no go
5. Install MiFlash unlock 2.2.4
6. Booth into Fastboot. Run the app and waited for 6 to 8 minute for the unlocking process.
7. Phone restarted
8. Happy days!

Apparently that's the claim. I don't imagine there's going to be many volunteers to deliberately brick their phone just to try this out.
We'll have to wait for the next person whose too impatient to fully read the guides and accidentally bricks the phone, before we can get any validation.

Hi Zadjalixx, unfortunately, is still L3, xiao mi need to up their game for this ~ I didn't root or load any custom recovery like TWARP into this phone YET. My initial Idea is the review the phone so I can use it for my daily drive. Also I can't see Netflix in PLaystore, ( so is a bummer for sure ). you have any alternative that could suggest? thanks mate.

Yeah , so far that works for me , I have given up at 1st and ready to make use of the hairdryer to remove the back cover to perform the test point reset.
I read through some treads which I am having issues to trace back, by using an older version of miflash unlock we can unlock the phone without the wait for another 30days.
Like Robo says we need to wait for the next victim to do so ~ I should have recorded a video during that process. Cheers ~

Hello Xda and K20 Pro-ians.
Just wanted to share with you what I did after accidentally selected “ clean all and lock” options during the process of putting in K20 Pro India ROM (raphaelin) 10.3.3 into my K20 Pro which was running on China (raphael) 10.3.14.
Started reading the forum and somehow TEST POINT Reset was my last option as I can’t boot into the ROM and was at the Recovery screen, Tried EDL as well still no go
I read through some post, and one of the members mentioned about using an older version of Unlocking application. Immediately, I tried all possible version that I could find and so far version “miflash_unlock-en-2.2.406.5” did the unlocking and straight went into the newly installed India ROM(raphaelin).
FYI. the latest version of MiUNlock doesn’t permit you to unlock bootloader process for another 30days (Mi Policies)
Steps Taken
1. Got my New Phone ( China Rom ) updated to version 10.3.14
2. Read through the post in XDA and begin ripping off my warranty -> Downloaded India Rom 10.3.3
3. Unlock Bootloader (waited for three days) -> starts flashing -> With Clean all and Lock option being checked! - FML!
4. Tried to unlock again with Miflash version 3~ no go
5. Install MiFlash unlock 2.2.4
6. Booth into Fastboot. Run the app and waited for 6 to 8 minute for the unlocking process.
7. Phone restarted
8. Happy days!

I don't think this will work . due to teh security level , It needs to have L1 rather then L3 to use Netflix service.
I also made the same mistake. I tried to unlock with newest and older unlock tool, but it failed. It is showing to go and check unlock status from the developer option. My device can't boot then how can to developer option?? Please suggest me what should I do. Thanks in advance

you need to download the chinese or indian fastboot rom and install it trough mi flash tool, then once the rom is installed again, you can go into the menu to enable bootloader unlock. Then you probably have to wait a week until you can unlock it using the xiaomi unlock tool.

Everytime I use the latest unlocker tool my phone won't boot to OS anymore and the stock recovery boots up. I have to do a factory reset and then i have to apply for the bootloader to unlock again.
Is there an option to see the unlock time without needing to reset the phone?

How is this correct? While Installing India rom, the bootoader got locked and you’re stuck at the Recovery menu. How Can you Enable Developer Options to bind the ID again when the device doesn’t boot?
Are you saying post the lockout, you booted immediately into fastboot and used the Mi Unlock?

Hi Mate, you tired using MiFlash unlock 2.2.4 as well ? Does it work. Basically once i Login to using my MI account and I leave the application run for few minutes and then I am able unlock the bootloader.
Most important step is that you need to put your phone to fastboot then unlock using older version -> then you should be able to boot into your ROM then from there you can enter the developer mode. But initially you should have your phone unlock(boot loader 1st right)
hope it works.
You need to boot your phone into fastboot. in order for the application to work.
Recovery menu ( Original Recovery from Mi / I have yet to load custom recovery like TWRP )
you could restart the phone and boot into fastboot even you are in the original recovery menu. Not sure if that makes sense.
thanks
My problem

This is a problem, when trying to pass the Chinese rom with the bootloader unlocked, the phone neither turns on nor fastboot mode and is only recognized via edl, have any idea what I can do?
I can't post external link. If you search on YouTube K20Pro EDL recovery you will get the video , that that is what you looking for.
The application only works if you are in fastboot mode. Thx and good luck

[ Guide ] Successfully Rooted SM-T725 LTE

Dear All , this method maybe already here somewhere ,
i have tried to root this specific device and i ran into many issues !
but successfully i have done it .
i'll upload the patched file here and i'll mention what method i have done ! ..
unlock boot loader is a must . ( Please read about it in google , All Samsung devices is the same method )
u might repeat the process to times until it successfully unlocked and greyed-out !
Next download this firmware only to be able to run the patched AP .
un-tick Auto-reboot before flashing .
once flash done , power + Volume down to restart , then volume up with power until u boot into the recovery
wipe data . restart . done
to make sure u have done every thing correctly u'll see RED massage once u boot you're device
Firmware ( This is UAE Firmware " T725XXS1ATC5_T725OJM1ASJ3_XSG " ) All Languages included . Link
Patched AP File Link

after rooting is it possible to update firmware to a new one?

No ! ..
Hi
Do I just need to use odin to flash the Firmware you mentioned then use ODIN again to flash the patched ap
I can just add that with this specific fw version and patched ap everything worked on LTE version but I might add my little deviations ...
1st original firmware flash (BL,AP,CP,CSC-non-home one) instantly followed by wipe data in recovery mode.
2nd After the initial setup + wifi connection I installed and updated magisk.
3rd "adb restart bootloader" (here i am not sure if it mattered but anyway) and flush again with the provided Patched AP File (BL,the_patched_AP,CSC - the home one this time ... using CP failed with modem err with me so I just skipped it here)
4th get trough the init setup again with wifi on and open magisk which will install more stuff.
The prerequisites still apply oem unlocked bootloader before you start and keep your battery at least 60-70% since the process drained mine a lot.
You know you are on the right track when you have warning with tablet bootloader is unlocked (at startup yellow) and tablet not running Samsung's official software (red after the first one)
Ive just bought this SM-T725 model android 11. There is no sign of OEM Unlock Bootloader under development. Does anyone know how I can unlock this.

The option only shows up when you are connected to the internet.
Thanks for reply mate, I got it figured. I also manage to get root and twrp recovery but not both at the same time. After flashing and using twrp recovery I then lose root after reboot and have to flash a patched magisk bundle over odin again. Bit inconvenient but I only intend using twrp now and then for backup/recovery.
Can you recommend a stable rom for this device - far too much google bloat on it for my liking. I tried latest lineage but found it unstable.

Just install LineageOS. Clean, no Bloat, everything smooth and you can have TWRP and Root/Magisk at the same time.
Depending on how much Google you want to have on your device, you might rather choose LOS+MG ( https://lineage.microg.org/) I can highly recommend it. You get rid of Google which debloats it even more and is a plus for your privacy but almost everything works (at leat for me. But migh depend on your needs)
If you like Google, just use normal LineageOS (https://lineageos.org) + GAPPS
Thanks for reply. Will try the LOS ROM later. Wish Google crap would disappear totally. I hate it enormously.
By the way which folder am I looking for on that LOS ROM download page
Ah gts4lv I presume

Recently switched to using MicroG Lineage. Timely enough, MicroG passes the SafetyNet now as per the instructions mentioned below and indicated in the attached screenshot. For the fingerprint, I had selected the T720 from the list.

Along with Aurora store installed as a service, I think you don't need Google anymore.

I'm having some problem here:
I can install LineageOS, I can root/Magisk, I can have TWRP, but not all together at once.
Can you help me on how to do this?
Working on a SM-T725 of course, actually rooted, lineage and TWRP installed, but my Magisk can't install modules, it seems it doens't have root privileges.
Thanks in advance for your answer
anybody have an updated one, the file has been archived on the said link... thanks in advance
