[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] wozhere:
Xiaomi doesn't have a factory for making phones and their production is also the inventory model, no stocks or parts or phones. They just commission batches of phones at different times for the same models, according to large combined orders, probably in differing workshops if demand is high. So quality can vary.

Xiaomi also make little or as reported no real profit from phones, they use the phones as brand advertising and make money from their numerous branded trinkets. This is a well known fact in the Asian business world. They don't spend tens of millions or billions on advertising like other big names. Their phones' models at cheap prices is their advertising which costs them nothing. This is their strategic PR & primary business model. They also enjoy bothering giants like Apple Google Samsung Huawei ZTE by being market disrupters in this way, cutting their profits by competitive pricing, at cost.

So each batch of Pocophone could, and is probably, a different phone specially if fixing teething problems in the first few months of a new model.

So XDA users giving feedback on all these Pocophone threads about problems with screen, touch, delay, random reboot etc. should give their rough purchase date and seller's identity+location. Otherwise everyone is talking about different phones.

That could be why recent buyers are facing little to no problems. I suspect Xiaomi have been fixing problems by replacing the faulty parts (screens etc) or assembly processes as well as kernel/ROM/drivers with better hardware & software & assembly guidelines. Probably with feedback from here, MIUI forums, etc.

But Xiaomi seem to be doing this secretly, which happened to previous models too, in order not to damage their reputation. So they can claim to problematic users, it's just your problem, Look at others. Did you damage your phone? This adds to the confusion of people talking about (in effect) different Pocophone builds & hardware. This confusion also helps Xiaomi escape blame.

Lesson 1:

When Xiaomi brings out a new phone, wait at least 4 to 6 months, for them to fix teething issues in their haphazardly commissioned assembly batches.

+

It'll be also cheaper by then.

Lesson 2:

There is no standard Pocophone, after a few months the next wave of ordered batches could, and are probably, a different model, a slightly different Pocophone. With evolving parts & code & possibly even different hardware parts. Even if it's just a different assembly workshop or team or process with a different quality control.

Mahn i hear you loud and clear. But when life gives you lemons... you gotta learn to make lemonade rt? Thats why this thread was created. unless and until xiaomi acknowledges this issue its our own problem. What better can we do than to try out their so called 'fixes'. Replacement would be bigger blunder since we would prolly get more defective ones only. Thats simply the reason why i 've asked if there is any improvement with the latest build and i sincerely expect an answer from users like me who experience a genuine issue of ghost touches and freezes that render the phone rather difficult to use in the first place. Others tryn these builds would report them better than last ones as they do not have the issue in the first place.. i believe it is the initial batches of the phones that experience such issues.

Still waiting for a remark..
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] wozhere:
Yes that's why I really started that post and it got long: to ask people posting to say when they got the phone and preferably location and seller too. Not to mention ROM/drivers/fixes flashed. Then the faulty batch can be traced. But yeah, that is really sneaky of Xiaomi to pretend there was nothing wrong and it is all the users' fault. Then Xiaomi can be told look, the people who bought it at period X got screwed with this fault, by Xiaomi and:

1) What are they going to do about it

+

2) if there are fixes or tips or solutions by guys and girls here too

But a lot of fixes have been found thanks to threads like this or at least Xiaomi have been shown to be at fault, not the poor buyers. So well done Bro.

[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] jomin_995:
I think it is only the first few batches of phones that are affected right? Maybe creating a separate thread with this link to report will help to identify more people experiencing similar issues. lodging a mass complaint would make xiaomi to atleast acknowledge the hardware issue...
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] koax88:
I just bought this phone for a week. Did not notice any touch issue yet appart from typing error ( might be because im not used to larger screen phone) . Tested official stable and latest open beta. Maybe the issue is there,but because im not into gaming i never noticed that. The only thing that i can confirm is,this phone scrolling is sluggish compared to last year pixel 2. But overal for the price im quite satisfied with this phone. If it could be better,then its wonderful.. cheap and fast phone for us all.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] jineshpatel30:
I think below discussion will be helpful

For me also touch responsiveness seem much better on 8.12.27 than 8.12.20/24.

There was visible lag for me in last builds but now it works much faster.

BTW I read somewhere that they changed the OTA file in morning with same No. 8.12.27 due to some bug. But i just downloaded and flashed the one that's currently available on xiaomi website. Give it a try once again and see it's still giving you touch issue or not, because for me it's working much better compared to previous builds. (though still not as responsive as 10.1.3 stable )
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] koax88:
updated to latest beta through update app, still the same as before. i never noticed the issue. scrolling on fb seems much more fluid on .27 firmware. well, my screen does have abit of light bleed near the nav bar. but its not that serious. Thats only my personal opinion based on my usage, no gaming tho.

edit: i found this website to check where my phone is manufactured.

https://www.esetube.com/check-smart-phone-quality-using-imei-number/

it seems mine is made in china, maybe others can investigate more if diff county have issues.

From what I've been able to google, this means my bootloader is still locked. If I try to flash with Odin, I get this:.

ODIN MODE (HIGH SPEED)

I know Odin detects the phone, it doesn't seem to be an issue with computer -> phone connection.

turned on OEM Unlock and USB debugging, fired up Odin and my phone is telling me the following when I boot it into recovery:

I'm really not sure why this is happening shows OEM Unlock as being enabled. I know Odin detects the phone, it doesn't seem to be an issue with computer -> phone connection.

loop on recovery booting and the phone does not accept any official U or V FW

the error is" unsupport dev_type"

Additionally, you have 930U, Snapdragon device with locked and not unlockable bootloader. If you are attempting to unlock your bootloader by switching OEM Unlock you won't be able to do it since at 21 december 2018 locked Snapdragon S7 bootloader is not unlockable by any known way

[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] Androidian10:
Some background, here in my country, we can use a secure element on the sim card to store money to take public transport by simply turning on the nfc and tapping. I used to use the magisk module to enable my OP3T to use my nfc sim but ever since I upgraded, I have been trying to find ways to enable the nfc sim on my OP6. Apparently, the old thread for the 3/3T and 5/5T has instructions although, I am having some difficulty following the instructions. Is anybody able to mod it for the OP6? Maybe even the original modder [MENTION=2447659]snowwolf725[/MENTION] could do it for the 6? I got quite a lot of value loaded onto my sim for daily transport use.

[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] Totone56:
I recall using something like this on my G3. It was an NFC payment solution from Orange.

But i just had to use their wallet app (just like GPay) and it would use the NFC chip in my Sim card instead of the phone's chip.

I'd be curious to know you can achieve what you want, it's interesting.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] acuma14:
I'm ok with gpay, but in my country (Russia, Moscow) there are universal transport card, and mobile providers has a spesial sim with security chip inside, which implements transport card emulation (using phone nfc module to pass instead plastic card).

Oneplus does not support sim secure chip "from the box", but there are solution for 3, 3T, 5 (up to android oreo). In android 9 libnfc-nxp.conf moved to vendor/etc (istead system/etc) and got many spesial params, so old solution does not works. I didn't yet modify magisk patch from OP 5, but i think i can if someone explain me which nfc config i need.

The second problem is apk and jar from patch, i dont have this original service in android 9 oxygen, so i cant predict behavior of my phone if i'll install custom one...

As well as i sugges that other nfc module using in OP6

[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] jkq1996:
I got my awesome new OnePlus 6T a couple weeks ago. I upgraded from a Nokia 6.1. Both have USB-C connectors.

After I got my Nokia 6.1 I bought about 6 various cheap USB-C charging cables to have as spares... in the office, cars, bathroom, kitchen, etc.

All of my cheap charging cables will charge my Nokia 6.1 but none of them will charge my OP6T.

I can charge my OP6T with the Nokia OEM cable and with the OnePlus OEM cable... why will none of my other cables charge the OP6T?? Are there wires missing out of cheap generic charging cables??
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] null0seven:
You can buy original from OnePlus or from Aliexpress, Gearbest, Geekbuy, Joybuy, Tomtop. The Dash charger & cable it's WORTH every penny!

On oneplus cost more, like 19 euro. On others 3-4 $
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] Jager:
Beware of cheap cables without the proper 56k resistor in them. Improper use can damage the charger and device.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] OhioYJ:
I've never used the factory cable with my 6T, but I've never used the DashCharger either. Do these cables not work with any charger / PCs?

It work, but why ? You'll never have Dash charge, that means Speed charging!
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] liam_davenport:
USE! the OEM cable only do not mix cables/brick as they're not meant for other devices, For example OnePlus Cable's do not follow Type C specification wouldn't advise using them on any other device.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] jkq1996:
I just looked through the box, and read the little user manual booklet, it says:

"connect the USB Type-C cable to the USB port on your device"

"Note: Fast charging can only be achieved by using the OnePlus original product USB cable and travel adapter"

Nowhere does it say that some USB-C cables don't work. And nowhere does it say to not use any other cables or chargers.

So, there is a 56Kohm resistor inside the cable? Is this only in OnePlus cables? What is the purpose of the resistor?
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] jkq1996:
I just found this article, I think I understand now. Don't buy cheap USB-C cables!

[Moto Z2 Force  Themes, Apps, and Mods] shakazoid:
I don't believe you can unlock the AT&T version to be used with other carriers since the bootloader cannot be unlocked and believe possibly same with the Verizon version. Only the Tmobile & Sprint permit unlocked bootloaders. I could also be wrong in terms of usability with other carriers even if the bootloaders are locked. For instance my current phone it's a Verizon prepaid Moto E4 that was unlocked for use on Tmobile despite the bootloader still locked.
[Moto Z2 Force  Themes, Apps, and Mods] mr_5kool:
If you only say "unlock", I'll understand it in 2 ways:

- unlock the bootloader

- unlock carrier

1. Unlock bootloader

You can easily unlock bootloader if you have T-mobile or Spriny one. It's harder for Verizon or ATT. Just google and ask team Sunshine if Z2F was supported.

2. Unlock carrier

I dont know much about this case
