Any updates on good batteries?

Mine is slowly but surely getting worse...

I cannot get one from a service center, since I imported the device and there are no Mi Service Centeres in Germany ;)
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Accessories] ianmills:
From my own expereince and research I believe it is impossible to find an original replacement battery on the net. Anyone advertising one will send you a fake. The legit sites no longer stock them. I think this implies Xiaomi doesn't even make them anymore. This leaves replacement batteries from other manufacturers. The only 'legit' maker I am aware of is NOHON. I ordered one of their batteries from an official source on aliexpress but it cost $30 and will take 2 months to arrive. Pretty bad but I'm not sure there are any other options

A couple questions though:

1) Are counterfeit NOHON batteries an issue? I could have got it from an alternate source but buying batteries from china is like navigating a minefield :P

2) Other than NOHON are there any other legitimate name brand battery makers that make replacement BM46 batteries?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Accessories] ultimo123:
did someone try to calibrate battery?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Accessories] kevin761:
I will replace my battery soon. Don't want to buy redmi note 5 pro for the little difference...

I'm lucky cause i live near Paris and Xiaomi has open a new store here. I'm trying to call them to ask if they can sell redmi note 3 battery.

If they can't, I will buy a Nohon battery. The price is not 30$ on Aliexpress but 12$.

https://fr.aliexpress.com/item/NOHO...pm=a2g0s.13010208.99999999.267.777d3c00MvdMJ4

After some research, it's look this battery are good ( check google "nohon" and look feedback on aliexpress)

I think i will buy this tool to check the capacity of a battery when you do a full charge:

I bought this brand to replace my Redmi Note 2 note for 1.5 Year (I didn't use this much) and now battery worn out.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Accessories] Dnlz:
Let us know how it goes, I want to replace my battery aswell but I'm not sure about the Nohon brand. I can't find the original batteries anywhere.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Accessories] gattonero666:
Anyone tried the 4900mah Batteries???
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Accessories] ianmills:
Well I have some good news and some bad news.

Good news - the 4000mah nohon battery finally arrived after 3 months and seems to have battery life simialiar (7+ screen on hours) to orginal battery but

Bad news - since I put the stinking nohon battery in my phone the battery indicator shows -2% and won't change. I tried replacing the original battery and the battery percentage works as expected (same with the fake oem battery I tried)

I've tried reconnecting the nohon battery several times but no improvement. There are threads about this and seems to be a xiaomi issue but really strange it only happens with the nohon battery and not the others

%*+-= this is really pissing me off! Any ideas guys? XD

Hello,

I have a kenzo since two years now. In my country (France) there is a new Xiaomi Shop since two month.

I have called them to know if they can sell to me a kenzo battery. But they can't because it's a too older phone and they never sell it... Too Bad.

For the moment, my battery is ok, but in futur, i will buy a nohon battery.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Accessories] sanchiro:
On February I changed the battery for my kenzo, the brand is NOHON and works perfectly. I bought it in Gearbest but is selled in many Chinese webs (Aliexpress, Bandgood, etc).
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Accessories] ayush321:
I went there and the asked for 1,400 INR with 6 months warranty.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Accessories] c_/\/\_k:
They are clearly looting in your city, visit them again and then show this... I checked it again, there has bees Rs.200 price hike in Redmi Note 3 battery between this post and my previous post. But still its 799 only... 1400 clearly a fraud. Take a written estimate from them.. and then post it on social media taging Xiaomi India... Or just make video of them.

Thanks a lot. I was thinking of buying some chinese battery. I will try this and give update.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Accessories] c_/\/\_k:
Click the thanks button.. dont say..
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Accessories] shivy25:
Dude, they charge not only for the spare, but also for the service charge. Also GST charges are extra. They charge 350 for labor and 799+350 plus GST on both battery and labor. So it would totally cost almost twice the price quoted in the website. I made a replacement from a authorized service center two months ago and it came around 1.2k.

P. S : I'm not sure of the exact labor and GST rates.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Accessories] c_/\/\_k:
You can just buy the part... And get it change by yourself of some local repairing shop...
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Accessories] Osga21:
I bought a NOHON battery from aliexpress, seems to have real capacity, my SoT increased more then 2 hours, would recommend.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Accessories] oroboros74:
Was it difficult to install?

I still have have about 82% of my original battery in terms of health, not sure if it's worth it or not.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Accessories] Osga21:
It's probably not worth it, but it was only $12 so it's cheap even if not 100% worth it.

As far as installation goes, it's really easy, watch a youtube tutorial if you need to. This battery even came with all the tools needed.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Accessories] titanbullet:
In Malaysia, the original battery at service center quite expensive - around MYR120 (about USD30) including installation. It seems like the other countries are cheaper than mine. Sad.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Accessories] Prasanth20:
How can I test my battery health?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Accessories] oroboros74:

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Accessories] bipindr123:
The battery costs only Rs 799 according to this official link https://www.mi.com/in/service/sparepartsprice/

But at the bottom its written GST and service charge extra, So when I called the service center they told me it costs Rs 1350

Thats double the advertised rate.

When i asked if i can buy the battery and replace it myself, they told me they cant and wont allow it.

I basically have to spend nearly 50% of the mobiles resale value on the battery smh :'(

you can only get original battery from Mi service center only. I replaced mine a week ago.. Battery backup and performance was so good.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Accessories] nite_eagle:
I have tried unofficial battery for just 799 INR and it only lasted 2 months :-/ That was horrible. I have expected atleast 6 to 12 months.

Now replaced officially from authorized service center for 1,400 and I'm confident that it would definitely lasts few years :)

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Accessories] amn1987:
Did you try battery from Nohon? Several positive reports. Authorised service centres still stock genuine battery here but it's a little pricey. Nevertheless I was looking to buy a genuine one but for whatever reason battery health had improved a lot over the last year making it unnecessary for now.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Accessories] rubep:
I use Nohon already for some 12 months and everything seems OK, I think +/- the same as original battery - no measurements, only feeling
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Accessories] amn1987:
Good to know. Nohon costs under half compared to original so if the latter ever gets permanently OOS it would have to do.

Try Chronus. I've been using it for years now, it's definitely my favourite. There are a few paid features but the free widgets are great. You can select from various weather providers to chose the one that's most accurate for your location. Accu Weather is best for me. Try the Chronus Flex widget. it's one of the included free widgets and works perfectly.

[Sony Xperia XA Ultra Questions & Answers] CEADEUS:
Hi guys, long time lurker.

So I've had this phone since last summer and I've been following this area for a while now looking for a way to root. But since my bootloader was locked I haven't had any luck.

Anyways, I really hate softkeys. They look ugly to me and since I'm right-handed, the placement of the back button the left has been very inconvenient. I've been using pie controls since my galaxy nexus and found it much easier to navigate.

I was wondering if there was any way to tweak the phone to either remove the softkeys permanently so I can just rely on pie controls. I know there are apps that temporarily do this, but another reason why I would rather have it permanently removed is so that my dock can align with the very bottom of the screen.

This question is kinda niche since I'm sacrificing more function for design and if pie controls crash I'll need to reset, but that's just how I am. I was just curious on what my options are. This phone is a beaut and it's a shame I can't root :(

[Lenovo Vibe K4 Note Questions & Answers] Vijay Jadaun:
I installed twrp using adb in my lenovo k4 note (A7010a48) after which the internal memory of my device reduced to 450 mb from 16 GB and I installed official resurrection remix in it. Though the storage option from settings shows 16 GB memory out of which 14 GB is used by system while in twrp it shows only 450 mb. Now due to this I would like to reinstall my stock ROM and stock recovery and get my storage and volte back. Please tell me if there are any ways. Also when I try to open my recovery there is a black screen only. Thanks in advance.
[Lenovo Vibe K4 Note Questions & Answers] akurativinod:
Actually that happened for me too.. I found that it happens when I unlock the bootloader, boot to recovery , deleting "boot_from_recovery.p" and WITHOUT flashing super su nor booting to system, directly flashing any other twrp recovery or wiping the Dalvik cache, system, data, the recovery finds our sdcard (internal storage) partition as 774 MB or in your case 450 MB. So to get rid of these things, flash s232 firmware again unlock bootloader, boot to recovery, delete the file "boot from recovery.p", flash SuperSU, clear Dalvik cache and cache, let the phone boot to system ( normal startup) and then reboot to recovery and voila! You will find internal storage as usual .:good:
[Lenovo Vibe K4 Note Questions & Answers] mohancm:
perform factory reset in twrp recovery, to fix that issue
[Lenovo Vibe K4 Note Questions & Answers] dubdex420:
Is there any way I can skip flashing the firmware and do this with the custom rom installed? Also, where is the "boot_from_recovery.p" file located? xda says /system but I can't find it there.
[Lenovo Vibe K4 Note Questions & Answers] akurativinod:
Try factory resetting from twrp as mohan mentioned above.. if it did not worked, probably that's the only way.
[Lenovo Vibe K4 Note Questions & Answers] Bibicp:
Figured out how to get rid of this issue: After installing stock rom, unlocking bootloader and flashing TWRP through ADB: you have to reboot into system (stock ROM), go through the setup and only then are you able to go back into TWRP to wipe and flash the custom ROM of your choice (in this case RR, without having full internal storage).

[Lenovo Vibe K4 Note Questions & Answers] Bibicp:
Fixed it for me so yes
[Lenovo Vibe K4 Note Questions & Answers] pkimtani:
While flashing RR, I also ended up in the same position. Here's how I fixed it:

1) Post flashing RR, goto bootloader and flash recovery-mohan-n.img

2) reboot to recovery

3) click on wipe and then select format data (option next to advance wipe).

4) Once format is complete, go back to main screen and Reboot to system.

Hence the problem shall be resolved.

Hi all, I tinkered with the settings and came up with enabling HEVC encoding for 4k, 1080p & 720p recordings. I have also halved the bit rate and hevc block size to 64x64.

1080p records at 10Mbps,

720p records at 7Mbps

I still have problem in reducing 4k bit rate. Tried reducing the values, but It still records @ 50-53 mbps. Any help would be appreciated.

1080@60fps records @ 20mbps

Audio now records in HEAAC/AACv2 ,64kbps@48000hz.

Hey the op3T HEVC patch on Magisk repo works fine for non-beta oos.

Just the bitrates for 1080p/1080p60/4k are too high still.

With the HEVC codec:

1080p can be 10mbps (instead of 20mbps) without noticeable quality loss.

1080p60 can be 16mbps (instead of 40mbps)

4k can be 24mbps (instead of 50mbps)

Just curious if people use Smart Switch (or similar programs/apps) to transfer all the old data/contacts/music/apps to the new phone or start fresh, re-download apps one by one, etc? When I switch to a new device, I'm usually (maybe unreasonably) fearful that some stray bit of old or unused data or file will transfer over that will affect the performance of the new device, thinking I'm making it 'dirty'. I also use it as an opportunity to purge apps I don't use enough to warrant keeping them. Over time I always collect apps I use maybe one time and I leave them there, no reason why.
