So I noticed some days back that gps was not working as expected in my rn7. It takes ages, if at all, to zero in on my position. Google maps was practically unusable. Driving mode was not possible because gps signal was not functioning or was very poor (always saying gps signal lost). Gps test using *#*#6484#*#* is never successful. I spent a couple of days trying to figure out the problem. Came across this thread on mi forum https://en.miui.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=5567417&extra=page%3D1&page=1&mobile=2 Very weird solution if you ask me. And this thread on xda https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-7/help/gps-issue-t3902512/page1 After doing some further digging in the above threads and other sources, I was able to improve it a little by changing a setting I had changed before. Apparently, if you have used *#*#4636#*#* to change the network setting of your second sim to GSM only, maybe to save some battery life, this affects the gps performance. Also, there have been some System apps updates pushed by xiaomi which I ignored and refused to install. If these were meant to fix some of these issues, I missed the opportunity to install them. Now when I go to the system apps updater to check for these updates again, they are not there. Currently, my gps performance has improved but it is nowhere near the efficiency I got in my r5plus. I will continue to probe for a solution and avoid any "surgical" solutions such as factory reset or flashing a new rom. Any suggestions from you guys will be appreciated. Also, if you are using RN7, kindly test your gps on Google maps or using *#*#6484#*#* to be sure everything is working as expected. My advice: (1)if you are using rn7 and your gps signal is working efficiently especially in Google maps, don't change network settings in your sim using *#*#4636#*#* as this might break something else (2) keep your OS/MIUI and system apps up to date. The updates do actually fix bugs, some of which you may not have come in contact with yet. 2 Likes

lordchiz: I will test the cord that came with the RN7 I helped my aunt buy, on my Celbro charger and give you feedback. Like I said I use a Baseus USB Cord, it does not show charging fast but it charges extremely fast. I get 6-70% under an hour. 2 Likes |

lordchiz: You're telling Xiaomi they don't have sense by selling you default charger and USB C, As you can see there is compatibility issues, Don't come and say your screen is flickering after pushing so much current to the phone. Third option is the best combination, the Second combination will damage the phone. 3 Likes |

Dam5reey: The second combination won't damage the phone. Usually, phone batteries charge between 3.7-4.2V range, but on the RN7, it was pushed to 4.4v maximum. Since the charging is below 4.4V as obtained in the picture, everything seem fine. 5 Likes |

Dam5reey:And how did you arrive at this conclusion that the default 10w charger and USB c is because they have sense? But like u rightly said, obviously there's compatability ish. That's all. 1 Like |
