Switching to developer rom

Hi,

so I received my Mi 5 on friday and now I need root. Therefore I want to switch to the developer rom but I heard that this will wipe my data.
Is this true? And will it just wipe apps and settings or also the /sdcard/* ?

Because I'm using the chinese rom, I previously couldn't restore from my google backup and I'm afraid that this is again no possibility after a wipe... any ideas?

Group / Bulk texting

Hey, so I'm an owner of an Samsung galaxy Nexus, Nexus 5 and an N6.
With my galaxy nexus I'm able to send texts, in bulk to hundreds of different people at once from one app. Then send texts through the stock app without my bulk text showing up there.

When i try on the n5/6 the texts i sent keep showing up in the stock app, making the hundreds if of business associates appear in front of my regular texts.
Also there's a restriction of how many texts I can send through the app now, which is annoying and ruins my work. Yet owning both n6 and n5, I seem to just use the GN despite it being sluggish, it does what i need it to.
I've seen the Liquid fluid rom for the N6 can solve my 2nd question, but the DL link is dead and google just sends me to deadends.
tl;dr
How do I stop the stock sms app from showing texts from my group sms app?
How do I remove the restriction of sms sent?

The solution can be for either the N5 or N6, I'd just like to be able to use either of them for what I need.

Torch brightness in CM roms

Hi everyone !
I don't know if you remember how we did use the torch in kitkat versions of CM, there was an app called torch, and we were able to enable or not the full brighness of the flashlight.
Since lollipop, the torch function is implemented in AOSP, so the torch app was removed.
In todays versions of cyanogenmod, the torch brightness is limited, and I never found a way to get full brightness again.
The only way was to switch to sultanxda's rom, but I would like to go back to official CM nightlies.

Do you know if there is a way to "fix" this problem ?

Thanks in advance !
