Even I am confused. And even Corning didn't mention the version GG that was used on Poco F1. But on other devices, they mentioned it.

Link: https://www.corning.com/gorillaglass/in/en/smartphones-with-gorilla/xiaomi/poco-f1.html

Anyway, I have sent an email to Corning. Let see if they responded back.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Saswata Chakraborty:
Update: Okay so I got a response from Corning and this is what they have to say.

Now this seems to be highly suspicious to me. Why doesn't Xiaomi want to release the version of GG used on this device. I got a call from customer support team yesterday apologizing for giving me incorrect information. Poco F1 doesn't have GG5. But the guy who called me couldn't tell me what version does the device have. He said he only knows it has 2.5D GG. Anyway, I will now tweet Xiaomi India CEO with this screenshot. It's our right to know what we are using.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] rakeshsainixyz:
I think it's GG1 or GG2
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] niteone:
Its GG 3
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Whiskeym:
Wow. Anyway its great that you got in touch with them. If you get any response from xiaomi, please keep this forum updated. Thank you.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Saswata Chakraborty:
I don't think it's GG3 as I have used GG3 on MI A1 and Nokia 7 plus without any screen protector and didn't get a single scratch. But on Poco F1, I already got 2 scratches. Not only me, but a lot of people have reported that the glass on Poco F1 is very scratch prone. I know I can avoid the scratches by using a tempered glass. But I don't like using another layer of plastic sheet on the screen that affects the touch response and reduce the vividity of the screen.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] SJshah:
It's most likely a version 3 or newer. It also might vary depending on whether it is made in India/China.

Why is it so important for you to know what version it is anyway?

If you're worried about scratches just take more care of your device or use a screen protector.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] jody2k:
Agreed and this thread is completely pointless imo

Gorilla glass or not...it wont avoid any scratches, a little sandgrain in your pocket and its done
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] knallex:
Maybe marketing reasons.

You hope to have GG5 installed over GG3, but ask yourself, what's the difference? Is it really more scratchproof? I guess not, just look at scratch tests online of different phones.

Gorilla Glass is a trademark and a selling argument, therefore phone manufacturer most likely have to pay money to promote their products with latest GG5, instead of simply GG.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Saswata Chakraborty:
What are you even doing here if you find this post "Completely pointless"?

You should be ignoring it rather than wasting your time on commenting. And F.Y.I, I think I know what can be posted and what not. If you got any problem (which you shouldn't since I didn't violate any XDA policy), report it to the mod rather than being sarcastic. Do you guys always have to intervene everywhere to divert a simple conversation into a hot argument? When you do something, that's fair. And when others do it, it's pointless and stupid?

Thank you!
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Saswata Chakraborty:
It is important for me to know because I feel so. It's not about being worried, it's about having complete information about the device that I am using. I paid for the device and I have full right to have my doubt cleared. Is there a problem if I want to clarify or create a thread on XDA asking others about their opinion?? If YES, then would you mind guiding me to the XDA section where it is written so?

Thank You!!
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] fabricio7p:
Hey brother relax, would be nice to know anyway. But i believe the only differenc between 3th and 5th gen of GG is the resistance against cracks isn't it? Like drop and impacts.

Btw our poco is pretty unresistent against random drops, you can check it from youtube tests
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Saswata Chakraborty:
True! Thats what I an saying. I have used GG3 on Mi A1 and Nokia 7 plus and J know how good it is. But the glass on Poco F1 is not that good. I already got a scratch, I don’t know how and from where. J don't remember dropping it or placing it with something else. My other device Nokia 7 pmus manages not to get scratched in the last 3 months.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] fabricio7p:
Yeah that sucks, my gf poco already got microscratches too and she and it has been barely a month she bought it
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] SJshah:
Didn't intend to offend you.

I just dont understand how it makes any difference knowing the answer.

It's a glass screen. It will scratch. Just take better care of it. :good:
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] rakeshsainixyz:
Scratch happen due to tiny dust particles not because of key or knife which youtuber shows because iron and other metals have hardness lower than Gorilla Glass which is 6 but dust particles has hardness of 9 so they will easily scratch any kind of Gorilla Glass whether it's GG6 or GG3. Only sapphire glass has hardness equal to dust particles that is 9. That's why they are used in expensive watches but it is too expensive even apple doesn't use it except on camera lenses. For proof you can watch "Jerry rig everything's" video on poco f1 where he scratches its screen with different grades of hardened materials it gets scratched on level 6 like every other smartphone (even note 9, Apple 10s also gets scratched on level 6). The one who has greater hardness than other will scratch it. Hardness is measured on scale of 1 to 9 where 9 is the hardest material on earth which is Dimond. This is why Dimond is very difficult to cut but it can cut everything. Iron has greater hardness than wood that's why it is able to cut it.

So if there's any dust particle on your screen and you just slides your fingers on it or just rubs your screen against anything like in pocket then it's done. They are so tiny that you can't even notice them. They are everywhere in your pocket, on your fingers everywhere.

The deference between GG3 and GG6 is of only thickness. GG3 is two times thicker than GG6. You can experience this by looking at your screen, you will notice that screen is not touching the glass and there is slight gap between glass and screen because glass has some thickness but if you have ever used GG6 glass phone then you will feel like you are just touching and typing on the screen itself (which feels amazing, like in Samsung Galaxy s9 or note 9) there is no difference between screen and glass, It's that thin but also having same hardness and strength as GG3.

If you hate tempered glass like me but also don't want scratches at the same time then you can use film like screen guards. They don't add any thickness plus doesn't reduce any touch response and don't get bubbles on edges. They are also very clear, you will forget that you have any kind of screen guard on. Here is the link of clear screen guard that I'm using its one of the best film type screen guard available bit expensive but worth it. You can search on youtube "ringke dual easy" to learn how to apply it cause it has four layer and bit tricky. It is self dust removing type of screen guard. If you get bubbles after applying it then don't worry they will vanish after 2 or 3 days. Trust me I'm not promoting anything I'm using this product. There are two screen guard in ane pack. Hope i helped you.

[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] ronald_loulan:
Agree, i have older phone that i use for year without scratch but i have it on my poco in 3 months.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Saswata Chakraborty:
Hey, thanks for your valuable input. I really appreciate that you took your time to share your opinion. I wish I had seen this screen guard before getting the scratch. I have already got a tiny but quite deep scratch and the display became a bit pixelated on that particular area due to the scratch. Now, even if I spend 999 bucks, I will still lament for that scratch. So, I would better save the money for future. Anyway, I hardly use one smartphone for more than a year. I have already changed three devices in this year. So, chances are I will change it again in a few months. So, I would buy the screen guard before buying the device and install it immediately after opening it from the box.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Saswata Chakraborty:
Sorry if I over-reacted. With so many sarcastic posts everywhere, it's hard to differentiate.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] rakeshsainixyz:
Just one suggestion from my side whenever you buy any device in future, buy it under "guarantee buy back protection" option. By this you can sell your device to Flipkart within one year and can get 70% money in return and with that money and adding just 5k to 8k you can again purchase a decent device upto 20k (like poco f2 in future).

;););););)
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Saswata Chakraborty:
Will it still be applicable if the device gets scratch or something like that? Or will they reduce the price?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] rakeshsainixyz:
The device should be in running condition and screen shouldn't be damaged. You can read all the details on Flipkart website or simply google it.

:svetius:
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] alok932:
Agreed but even flipkart has lots of terms and conditions regarding that, one i remembered is its upto the seller and not all seller support it or not every seller will provide the guaranteed value. Still i feel paying Rs.150 extra is worth if you are sure to upgrade to poco itself as of upgrading to other phone won't guarantee it.

Also for 128GB Armoured edition has not such option as of now.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Eli22:
Hey, the same thing happened to me, It's just a month I bought this phone, but yesterday got a scratch on it! I was pretty sure I read that poco f1 has corning gorilla glass. But seeing the scratch I was shocked. Because I never used a screen protector when I knew that the phone has Gorilla glass. If they have not used gorilla glass, they should at least specify the same, so that people will be more careful and at least use a screen protector. Is there any way that this can be covered under warranty since Gorilla glass claims to be scratch resistant?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] thanas:
lol i dont know how i ended up reading this thread but. afaik gg5 sacrifices scratch resistance for drop withstanding. afaik gg3 has better scratch protection than gg5. however i too have read its more likely to be gg3.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] ronald_loulan:
Is ok to me, I rather have a scratch glass than a crack glass....

If you have unlocked bootloader try with fastboot file & Mi flash tool

http://en.miui.com/download-353.html

Read Method 2: Fastboot : http://en.miui.com/a-234.html

you have to go V9.6.16.0.ODIMIFE (Android O) & after if you want update to 9.6.17 etc...

Factory Reset can not do anything in this case

[Or try with edl mode... https://in.c.mi.com/thread-37902-1-0.html

I am in the same situation, but instead of a bootloop, it just gets stuck in the "androidone" screen.

I can access fastboot, but not recovery menu. And of course the bootloader is locked. So I do not even now how to do the factory reset... or flash the official rom... (It always says not possible in lock state from fast boot).

Any help/specific instructions would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance :)
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] Cocagy:
it seems like boot issue ..

If the data in storage not important you can unlock bootloader and it will force you to factory reset

If still same problem then you should flash thought miflasher and download official rom and flash it
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] salchi13:
Thanks, at this point I don´t even care about the data... and most of it is backed up.

The problem is that I had not selected the OEM unlock option, the command fasboot oem unlock does not work, and the miflash_unlock tool tells my that my account is not valid to unlock the phone. So I do not really know how to unlock the bootloader. Do you know if there is another way to unlock it/flash, that does not require opening the phone?

Hi guys,my LG G4(h815) was in bootloop and i use the hair dryer fix but after heating the cpu/motherboard my earpiece and microphone are not working during calls,only speakerphone works.

I replaced the earpiece but that not fix the problem,earpiece still not working.

What parts i need to replace to fix my phone?

I guess that when i use the hair dryer to heat the cpu and fix the bootloop problem i damaged some audio components on motherboard.

[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Questions & Answers] bigcc32:
Hi all,

I flashed a (now, very old) version of Epic ROM (v7.5.4) on my MIX shortly after its release. I used it as my daily for about 2 years and never had the desire to update beyond that, as it included everything I needed.

Soon, my MIX is no longer going to be my daily, so I figured I'd explore what newer ROMs were available. The highest usable version of TWRP on my device is 3.0.2-0 (MrRaines) and any attempt to flash anything remotely modern to my device either reports an 'Error Code 7' or reads [This package is intended for "lithium" devices, your device is type " "].

I've attempted to update my TWRP (via the Official TWRP App) to a newer version, and that renders the recovery useless, as it has no touch screen functionality; so I have to revert to 3.0.2.

What do I have to do to get my device recognized as type "lithium," so that I can go about flashing newer stuff, and how do I go about resolving the touchscreen issue?

Thanks
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Questions & Answers] cobben:
Mr. Raines TWRP will not let you flash a newer TWRP.

You have to fastboot flash a new TWRP from a Windows computer.

After that you should have no problem.

Official TWRP is dead, you should use the latest updated one by Blunden-Raupe
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Questions & Answers] bigcc32:
Flashing is not the issue

I can flash any TWRP (including the one you mentioned) just fine using the app or using the fastboot method. It doesn't matter - the touch screen doesn't work on any newer [than 3.0.2-0] versions of TWRP.

I understand that I need a newer recovery to flash newer stuff and I know how to flash a new recovery. My issue is that I cannot get from the old recovery to a new WORKING recovery because of touchscreen support.

Do I need to go find the stock version of MIUI that came with the phone, revert to that, and then use upgrade to a newer OEM Xiaomi ROM to achieve "lithium" status (the lack of which is what I'm assuming is causing touch issues with newer TWRP versions)?
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Questions & Answers] cobben:
You probably have to do something like that, so the TWRP matches the firmware to get touch working.

It has been such a long time since I had these problems so I don't remember exactly.

Now yshalsager has made firmwares available without having to flash an entire rom, you could try that.

https://xdaforums.com/android/software-hacking/devices-xiaomi-firmware-updater-t3741446

Addendum:

I would either fastboot flash the latest official rom, and then flash the latest TWRP, or -

try flashing via TWRP the latest TWRP and firmware zip file at the same time.
