Well, I don't really believe pressing while charging affects battery tho. Spoilt USB caused mine.
Just like eteebanky said, no replacement will be like follow come. Mine no dey charge pass 98% after replacement.

t33why take caution. There are lot of substandard battery being sold on Nairaland. I will advise you order on AliExpress if you can.

I've had the displeasure of buying a couple of those, my favorite was one that fast forwards at 94%, you can literally see the ba3 running from 94 to 100 everytime.

I'd definitely take care to buy a replacement, but like you said it never'd be like the OEM

Good afternoon all, i use redmi note 8, have been using the phone since August 2020. Recently the power button us proven not able to on the phone if the battery runs down, you will press tire. I have a question when i want to reboot or restart the phone when the phone is on, how do i restart the phone without the power button.
Secondly sometimes the phone just hangs, the face recognition will not open the screen ,the pattern drawing will not work, even if the phone is ringing, you can't pick it, how do you troubleshoot this challenges, it's already obvious to me that the phone needs changing but i will manage it till i can buy a new one.

Quickball to restart without the power button

Quickball to restart without the power button

Please what's quickball??

Hi guys,

Is there a way I can resolve this without losing my files?

It refuses to boot beyond this.

The annoying thing is, I have no idea what caused it, one moment the phone is working great, albeit hanging a bit, and the next, this.

I appreciate the help

Basically a ball that gives you quick access to functions that you put there

Stating the Model of the device is important!

nothing new, just one of numerous Xiaomi problems... visit calcare, ooh sorry, Raya care...

or force restart many times... if that doesn't work, lunch into safe mode, if that doesn't work, keep holding the power button like everything depends on it, if that doesn't work, sorry you might lose your files...

when using xiomi always prepare your mind for situations like this... nor be only transsion get problems...

State the model. And I can see that the bootloader of this device is already unlocked.

Thanks.

It's a k20 pro.

Fantastic device.

It's been my second phone for years, and aside having to replace the battery, I haven't had any cause to complain.

Recent issue aside, obviously.

Have you had any issues with the power button?

I've not

You may need to do a factory reset.

Crap, was afraid of that 😔

Your problem is probably as easy as just changing the power button.
You can activate 'tap twice to wake up' from your settings so you can just tap twice on your screen whenever it goes dark.

Is your phone system apps updated ? And how much free space do you have on your internal memory ?

Hi guys, I noticed the YouTube app on my note 12 doesn't load comments. At first I thought YouTube restricted the comments but when I used my Samsung the comments were visible.

Any idea how to fix this?

[quote author=Loneley post=126589603]Hi guys,

Bootloader already unlocked, are u in custom rom or stock. Press volume up and power till it shows the recovery, try wiping the catche alone. And boot into system.

Did you use same sim for both devices? It's obviously a network related issue.

Since bootloader is unlocked, as a last resort you can flash TWRP, download the recovery rom, then flash via TWRP. You'll need an OTG usb drive for this. With this way, your files will be safe .

I connected both to the home WiFi

Well, still try with another network first. It's even possible it's a bug related to recent YouTube YouTube updates on your device. Only started noticing it recently on my device, though its only when network is not so good.

Hello guys

Please, I'm a first time user of xiaomi product, just bought this redmi 9a brand new to use for few months but I don't understand the phone....

It doesn't support Google play service
It doesn't have Google playstore
The MI app store is written in Chinese
The browser is written in Chinese

Like everything is just in Chinese and I don't understand

Does this mean I can't use Google playstore on the phone?

Thanks.

You guys have been helpful, as always.
