[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Real Life Review] iLovPieNCake:
Using the phone on T-Mobile in Chicago, IL - USA, signal strength has been pretty good, not amazing but much better than my Moto G6.

Average download speeds ~10Mbps with peaks of 20Mbps

My G6 average under 10Mbps and peaked at 12Mbps

My OnePlus 5 averaged 20Mbps with peaks of 50Mbps.

Not too bad although it doesn't support carrier aggregation so speeds aren't as fast as my OnePlus.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Real Life Review] Lebrun213:
used to get 100mb/s on a place with my galaxy a3 through 4g, but everytime i tried with the xiaomi i could only get 30-40mb/s.

same on another spot where i had 20 mb/s (galaxy a3) and now only 8-10mb/s with the a2 lite.

i checked it's all the same band used but the xiaomi just has weaker reception signal.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Real Life Review] Arkon1337:
Galaxy S4 Mini VS Xiaomi A2 Lite

LTE and UMTS Network tested:

Germany Vodafone: Signal Strengh from the A2 is weaker about 5-7 ASU (Arbitrary Strength Unit) or - 10-14 dBm.

So the antenna is probably not the best :(
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Real Life Review] chanti548:
Does it support wifi calling on T- mobile??
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Real Life Review] mortmaru:
It appears to of been fixed with one of the updates for the gps side of things that is mobile signal is still poor.

I noticed the gps faces the wrong way as well which is annoying
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Real Life Review] BlueMoonRising:
I've had my A2 Lite (4/32 version) for a week now, I got sims from Vodafone, Three & Giffgaff (for O2) and tried all 3 plus my Plusnet (EE) in my Vodafone SU6 & the A2 Lite and the phones were showing the exact same signal strength.

I've just changed to Sky Mobile as the O2 signal is better at my new place and the signal (here at least) shows as between -91 & -95 db. I was getting full signal bars earlier on the other side of town as well. The DL speed is up to 25Mbps and UL up to 17Mbps so no problem with a weak reception signal here at least.

I'm in the UK BTW.

Have you calibrated the compass yet? You need to move the phone in a figure of eight while rotating it, you need to do this for any phone. Really easy to drop the phone doing this so take care.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Real Life Review] anon1135:
Did u notice any problems with calls? As in not receiving any or if someone tell u it goes straight to your voicemail. I tried a redmi note 4 global version before but it didn't work that good for some reason even though the right bands were listed. Data and sms were fine, outgoing calls would have a 20 second delay before it rings. I'm interested in this phone for tmobile and att. This looks like xiaomi's best budget phone with bands that support those if it doesn't have problems like I experienced before
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Real Life Review] dali13gr:
The delay before a call is exclusively a matter of the provider, not the device.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Real Life Review] anon1135:
Damn, looks like Chinese phones on t mobile around my area is bad but good for others elsewhere in the US
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Real Life Review] Tasdude:
I seem to have reception issues with my new A2 lite, I am using Optus 3g down in Tasmania, Australia

With my old trusty Motorola 2nd gen, the reception was low at home and at work but still usable, however this A2 barely has signal in those locations, when it does have signal it seems to sit at 0 to 1 bar for a while then for some reason drops out to no signal for a while, I only have good signal outside and in town areas.

Is the reception power level lower? or does it not check for reception as often? The call quality is fine when I make calls in 1-2 bar reception areas, doesn’t appear to drop out.

Perhaps this is just the gamble with a budget phone and I doubt there is much I can do apart from trying a different carrier or look at another phone. Trouble is reviews do not seem to comment a lot on reception quality and it wasn’t something I expected to be an issue. Makes me miss the 2014 Moto :( it was a top phone.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Real Life Review] colloplay:
My signal strength is not that good in this device. It gives few signal bars than my oppo . Does not insist to pull any more signal where I get a bar on my old phone..then switches to 2G even when " forced to 3g" is activated. I don't get why it's happening. Otherwise on a 4G zones it's best. But I'd prefer good 3g signal that it cannot give.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Real Life Review] rcll:
Is the weak cellular signal a hardware problem? Or software?

Has anyone tested other ROMs and noticed improvement in cellular signal? A different kernel or different RIL show improvement?
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Real Life Review] AlaskaTHPS:
Ya, I wonder if you can buy micro antennas to place inside the phone. There's 2 or 3 u.FL(uFL, IPEX) antenna connectors inside the phone. Who knows, maybe a set was suppose to be bridged and share an antenna, I'd have to look at the schematic or trace the board myself.

---------- Post added at 09:31 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:00 AM ----------

Ya, you can definitely buy antennas to put in the phone. Just search MHF4 antennas. I'm going to work on figuring out where the 3 MHF4 connectors go inside the phone.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Real Life Review] rcll:
Interesting. Have you figured this out? Is there room inside the phone for additional antennas?

Adding antennas should increase signal strength for the bands currently supported?

Is there a way to add bands using additional antenna and editing the ril/modem file of the rom?
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Real Life Review] AlaskaTHPS:
There IS room for some small passive antennas. Antennas don't add bands, they just extend your current bands signal. There are some cheap mhl4 antennas online that would fit in there, but you need to know which connector is for which bands or use an antenna that covers most bands and bridge the connectors to one antenna.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Real Life Review] Xenocatalyst:
Antennas?

Did you work out if the MHF4 antennas were a viable option?

Can the spare connectors in the phone actually be used for an antenna?

If so, does it work?
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Real Life Review] XDA_RealLifeReview:
Proper etiquette aside (hint: don't use speakerphone while doing your "business" in a public bathroom), rate this thread to express how you think the Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite's speakerphone performs. A higher rating indicates that you love it: it's loud and it's clear.

Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Real Life Review] pesimeao:
Hi,

I notice that the speaker in a call is very very very very low. However, when playing music, it's great so I guess the problem is software related.

Overall I would say my previous phone was better (Moto X2), but this one is ok, 8/10.

Regards
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Real Life Review] GouryellaIV:
im assuming there is not much of a difference of quality between the A1 and this one right?

LOL, my previous phone was Moto X2, too :) And current is A2 Lite, of course.

Speaker is very good, comparable to X2
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Real Life Review] RFD80M-75679:
It's loud and clear enough, loud enough to make it an alarm clock. But some issues, that sometimes it has high treble that isn't good for long period of listening (did itbonce on a car that has no bluetooth stereo and in travel, and in long period of time it sounded tinny and ear-damaging) and I notice that on some music, the percussion / drum beats, from real drums like from progressive rock, sounds like turning into synthetic drum kits like you heard in FL Studio drum or Yamaha keyboards. Of course not expecting to be HiFi or anything hi-end, but it sounded weird to me.

Hi All,

Can you you please provide output to the following command in adb shell on your rooted xiaomi mi6 device,

cat /sys/class/power_supply/bms/charge_full

This will give the idea about how much charge your phone battery can retain. Which gives you idea that how much your battery has become weak.

This is a survey kind of thing that I want to have to decide whether I should change battery of my device or not :).

Thanks in advance.

[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] purplesnitch:
It's sort of laggy, when I want to tap on an app to open it, for example, it takes a few taps or sometimes just doesn't work at all.

The problem doesn't seem to be only on one area of the screen though, the whole screen has the same problem.

Haven't installed any recent updates or anything, in case that could be a cause of the problem. I've tried restarting the phone a few times and also wiping the screen but it hasn't worked.

I've also tried using the optimise and clean up options in the Phone Manager, but they haven't improved anything...

The screen was working like normal just this morning, but then around late afternoon the problem started.

I haven't installed a custom ROM or any other major modifications like that, by the way. The phone is pretty much the same as it was since I bought it. EMUI v8.0 and Android Oreo.

Just ordered this one: it's supposed to be for the Axon 7s which I think as the same structure inside, so it must fit well. Seems legit, 3320mAh as the Axon 7s is 3400 mAh

For the 3650 mAh, just a little search on the forum will answer your question, or a search on Aliexpress. SPOILER: it's a 3200mAh
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] amus76:
Just received my battery.

Just a reminder, it was supposed to be a battery for Axon 7s which has a greater capacity.

The battery I received is a standard yellow one for Axon 7 with ZTE logo.

I'm too busy to install it right now, I hope it's a legit one and has a standard capacity.

Conclusion: you can't find any Axon 7s battery

I ordered mine off Amazon called Cameron Sino like someone here said earlier and it's working good for now I hope it stays this way for a while.

[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] MyronAz:
How difficult was it to do the replacement?
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] anon1135:
For my first time I would say not too bad but I did end up scratching the speaker grills and ordering a replacement. To me, getting the speaker cover out was harder than the actual battery. I've posted some sot screenshots in a different thread if u are interested in seeing them. And as a first timer also have advice for others who want to try it as well so they don't make the same mistakes as me. It can be worth it if u don't care about keeping your device that mint anymore. But it can still also be mint depending how good u are at replacing it. If u use a case, the scratches can be covered up anyways. Imo I would say only do it if u had your phone for too long or got bored of it. Once u know how to do it perfectly, this can almost futureproof the phone and u might not feel like switching anymore. Another time to do it could be when u order an already used one for less than half the price of a new and have nothing to lose. Replacing the battery will make it feel new again and u just got yourself a good deal. There are a bunch for sale either on swappa or ebay. I think people usually sell their phones because battery degradation is the main reason and they went for a new phone instead of replacing it themselves
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] Voenix:
I need a battery replacement too.

I get 1.30 hours screen on time and Battery Saver is enabled all the time.

If I use WiFi I lose 1 percent every 30/60 seconds.

I need it mostly on screen.

I checked accubattery multiple times once it said 1.950 mah left and now 2.150 mah.

I'm running Android 9 but I got worse results on older Versions of Android. I don't even play games now.

Even thou i know what i did, i dont see any damage to the ribbon. I tried moving it and see if i can get the display to turn on, but without succes.

What do you mean 60$? With plastic and free shipping on aliexpress the display is 90$.

I dont know what do to. I dont feel encouraged to invest in an old device. I could get a used axon for 135$... Or i could buy a Pocophone, if i want power. But now i dont feel like spending any money.

Hello Guys,

I was just wondering if it would be theoretically possible to port the Windows 10 on ARM OS from a Laptop like the "Asus NovaGo TP370QL" which is using an snapdragon 835 to a phone like the Mi Mix 2 which is using the same SOC ?? :confused:

I dont really know much about Operating Systems, but since it is the same SOC and a phone is nothing more than a Computer, there should be probably a chance to get it running right?

Im really interested in your thought!
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Questions & Answers] rr111:
Don't think it's possible. This version of the Snapdragon 835 is customized to run on Windows 10 on ARM, which is also customized to run on ARM. And if it's possible, it'll take hella lot of work I think. :)

This was an exclusice deal between Xiami and Microsoft back then. I don't think this will ever come to any other Xiaomi device as it was Win10 mobile, which is dead.

Would be nice though :) using a full windows 10 installation on the go.

Probably that was something microsoft was aiming for when they brought windows 10 mobile to the Mi 4....

Eventhough the installation, drivers, etc probably doesnt work, would a bootloader like TWRP be able to boot the arm iso of windows?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Questions & Answers] rr111:
TWRP isn't a bootloader, it's a recovery. But you're right, TWRP would probably be able to INSTALL the image, but it wouldn't work. :)
