[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Raiz:
Well, there are a lot of devices here and there, especially in China, that have a lot of alternative brands.

The problem is that often, the Brand doesn't release what we call the Kernel source, with which we can build a ROM, or TWRP (or another recovery).

So I'll advice you to search for those before buying, if you're interested in buying a new phone, knowing that well known brands often provide the kernel source.

You can even base your future phone on what you see on the XDA "Top" devices.

Merci,

that's a good tip for next time.

I also had a WIko Jerry in between, Wiko provides the Original ROM, Don't know if that's enough. Never saw i here, but probably because it was a louzy phone :) and when it was released not so known yet.

Thanks for your answer.

How are you feeling after moving to P30 Pro?

Is the photo quality too different?

And about the battery life?

Enviado de meu VOG-L29 usando o Tapatalk
[Huawei P30 Pro Questions & Answers] vodovodo:
Battery almost the same. You will miss the speakers and headphones and huge screen

P30 is smoother better camera and smaller and screen actually is better calibrated

Can’t think of any other differences
[Huawei P30 Pro Questions & Answers] Csetoue:
Is the difference on camera quality huge?

I'm with a P30 Pro. Enjoying it. But I was thinking in giving it to my wife, and get a M20X, because of the screen size (I read a lot on cellphone). I'm afraid if I will lose too much on camera quality.

[Huawei P30 Pro Questions & Answers] Goronok:
Camera quality on the P30 Pro is significantly better than the M20X in my opinion. Not sure if it would be a deal breaker for you or not, but there is a difference.
[Huawei P30 Pro Questions & Answers] vodovodo:
Zoom and night shots yes it's huge trust me even without the nightmode activated on the p30 pro it's still better.

Also video is smoother less clumsy stutters and better specially in cinematic video effects

I have seen many people complaining about their 27w Xiaomi charger with problem of not turbo charging, low charging current, overheat, dont work with 20w charger, and etc. And I one of the these guys too. I have ordered two times 27w loosepack charger from chinese online shop and all are fakes. They dont give me consistent turbo charging and dont charge faster than 18w! This pissed me off because there are so many loosepacks out there and the original ones comes from 20w wireless charging bundling box, from mi 9 chinese box, or from 27w charger with box packaging which none of that chinese online shop sell that, all only loosepack which high risk of counterfeits.

Yesterday I bought the 27w charger with box in my local online shop. The seller told me he got the charger from local store in china and bought it to my country. After the charger arrives i tested in and yeah finally I got the original one. I always get "charge turbo" whenever i charge and measurement in ampere App can reach 4800mA which I never get even 3000mA with 18w or that fake 27w one.

So I made a comparison video of those original vs fake charger. I hope it can help you guys who experienced same like me and want to find the original ones. Here is my youtube video link:

https://youtu.be/xx-P6BxZzkU

If you want to see video later, here is also attached the quick glance of my both orig and fake ones. They do have difference in printing quality. And the Ampere screenshot of original charger for reference.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Accessories] SmallTarzan:
Great. Where can you get the original one?
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Accessories] arddy1:
I got it from someone who bought it from chinese local store.

If you want get the original one, you need to buy charger with official packaging box. Can be a bundle with 20w wireless, or standalone with box like i bought, but its very rare.

Specifically: aliexpress. Search the shop and see the feedbacks. Look for shop which can provide 20w wireless bundling in one box
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Accessories] PriPhaze:
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32976262381.html

I bought that bundle like 20 days ago, it should aerrive by next week at max.

But i got the "traveler charger" (Xiaomi 1A1C) which comes with a Usb Type C and Normal USB port.

Hopefully it charges correctly i will let u know but for now the bad comments i have read just say that they cannont turbo charge using the type C Port.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Accessories] arddy1:
Thats 30w charger right? I hope all these chargers are original. I will wait for your review :)
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Accessories] PriPhaze:
Yes 30w if you use the type c connector or at least that what they claim.

But since max supported for our device is 27w it is kinda useless.

But nevertheless I will make sure to post here once I get it and try it :D
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Accessories] daniel0917:
Hi

Can you get turbo charging with the wireless charger powered by the 1a1c 30w charger?
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Accessories] galakty:
Nope, it wont work. 20W wireless is working only with MDY-10.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Accessories] gore2kill4:
It is not true that the original is only in a transparent box. I got it without this transparent box and it works well.

[Xiaomi Mi 9 Accessories] crbn:
Here's a post to a review of the original 27 W charger ordered from Alixepress. I saw his review on a German forum too. You can also see a screenshot from the Ampere app. Looks legit. https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=79569598&postcount=87

Direct link to Alixepress: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32974660297.html

You can also check reviews there, several people wrote that Charging Turbo works, you can also see it in their photos.

Personally, I've order the charger from here a week ago: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/33001884969.html

Almost every photo review shows Charge Turbo, so hopefully it's true. I just have to wait until it arrives to try it out.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Accessories] silmarx:
[MENTION=7540102]arddy1[/MENTION], very nice post, a very detailed comparison. Thanks you!

I was convinced that mine was ok because I see "Charging Turbo" on the Mi9 every time I connect the charger. But looking to the charger details it actually matches the fake one you shown in your video. So I decided to perform some more tests.

- I tried to use a USB voltage/current meter but when I use it then I don't get "Charging Turbo" anymore, which means it blocks somehow some communication between the charger and the phone, could it be?

- in Ampere I can only get 2600mA, while using by cheap 2USD QC 3.0 charger I can get 3200mA;

- since this charger is effectively recognized by the phone with "Charging Turbo", I suppose the problem with the fake one is not the "protocol" or compatibility, but the amount of current it can send to the phone, what do you think?

The final test will be to perform a full charge with both my QC 3.0 and this one to see the difference.

My main concern now is: being a fake charger, is it safe to use it? may it damage the phone? What do you think?
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Accessories] g_seva:
I happen to have both with line and without, and both are working the same :) Both give turbo charge mode with cable and with wireless charger every time, i would never thought that one might be fake if haven't seen this post.

UPD. I checked were from i have ordered the original : https://www.aliexpress.com/store/3470060?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.27424c4dazyZc0

I have got 27w+cable+20w wireless charger+eu plug, from that store and they came in one package. So i don't know if only the charger will be original. It was shipped ~10 days to Israel.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Accessories] silmarx:
But did you actually measure the current with Ampere? In my case it seems I also have a fake one but I always get turbo charge mode as well. However when I measured the actual current in Ampere App I can see that the original 18w charger gives more current/power to the phone than the 27w one.

If possible use Ampere to measure if and report the results.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Accessories] g_seva:
Just measure the charge time in my case if i remember right, 27w charges the phone ~1 hour and charger witch came with phone i didn't measure exactly but i think it something like 1 hour 40 minutes.

As for Ampere it shows ~1500 Ma and ~4.5v on 90% battery level on both chargers and both cables witch came with the chargers. And yes in Israel we have 220-240v power supply, don't remember exactly but i think it's same as Europe. For 5 minutes that i have checked the phone charged to 92% level :)
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Accessories] silmarx:
You should measure it when charge is still below 50%, after that charging current starts to drop.

It might be the case yours is a very good fake charger :)

I will also compare charging times with mine and the. post the results in a couple of days.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Accessories] aeeon:
Hello guys,

I bought and recieved this one https://www.aliexpress.com/item/33000669695.html

And it shows "Charge Turbo" as well as about 4700-5000ma using Ampere.

Hope it helps :)
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Accessories] arddy1:
Phone showing charge turbo or not is not determined by the current. I have tested both mode in fake charger, the currents are almost same. It may be determined by that protocol or compatibility thing. When the cable is plugged in and your phone detects that charger is compatible, it will trigger turbo charging mode and allowing more currents to enter inside. But in fake chargers, although it have been already allowed, the charger hardware dont have capability to do that.

I can't test current using usb meter too because it caused the phone cant read the charger compatibility. So in the video i compare currents with app ampere. As long the voltage in app are about same, it can be compared.

About safe or not, i recommend you not to use it. The temperature in fake ones is noticeably higher when charging than the original, even the original has bigger output current.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Accessories] arddy1:
Okay i will clarify this, not all loosepack or unpackaged 27w chargers are fake, but it has risk to get the fake. I have observed some sellers who sell the unpackaged chargers, they are almost have few bad reviews and photos which i think have signs of fake charger. So buying that is like a lottery chance.

So to anyone who wants 100% chance of getting original, you have to buy chargers or bundlings with officially packaged, not bundled with simple plastic or cardboard. Buying chinese mi 9 version is good idea too if you havent have this phone since it gives native 27w charger in the box.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Accessories] silmarx:
Yes, exactly. Both current and voltage are changing all the time in QC. There might be some additional communication between phone and charger to enable the turbo charging mode.

But I don't understand why this gets blocked when using a USB meter in between, because with the QC 3.0 this is not affected.

Anyway, I won't take the risk of using this, I prefer to use the original 18W one while I don't get a new one. Meanwhile I have to open a dispute with the seller in AliExpress ?

---------- Post added at 12:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:17 PM ----------

Not sure if buying the Chinese version worth the 27W charger. Does the Chinese version has LTE B20? I thought only Global version has it.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Accessories] g_seva:
I know about dependency in battery level, that's why i mentioned it, i'll measure the time either.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Accessories] PriPhaze:
My traveler charger with wireless charger bundle is arriving tomorrow so I will test and let you guys know.

Then next week my mi 9 transparent is arriving and obviously comes with the 27w charger so I will pretty much have all available chargers for the mi 9.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Accessories] mrcheebz:
I received a fake one from this store.

doesn't work with the wireless charger.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Accessories] PriPhaze:
Ok so after trying the chargers I have my opinion.

1- after getting my wireless charger with traveler charger bundle I notice it was only quick charging and never turbo charging

2- there is a huge difference in size between the 27w that came with the mi 9 transparent and the traveler charger. (27w being bigger )

3- even the cable that came with the traveler charger is not enough to handle the turbo charge correctly, I noticed after having some intermittency while wireless charging, using stock cable solved the problem

4- No you can't wireless charge and also plug it USB to charge at the same time lol, when u do the wireless charge will immediately be interrupted.

5- Using charger that came with the mi 9 transparent works correctly with wireless charger and always charges turbo no problem.

So I guess my advice is to get the bundle with the 27w charger and not the traveler charger because that charger is missing something that doesn't let the turbo charge trigger. I mean even the cable was not enough so in the end that charger is just like a simple QC 3.0 charger.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Accessories] brainscann:
Hello I have ordered three chargers from Aliexpress, two pieces came loose without packaging and one packed with the Wirelespad.

The two where unpackaged were fakes,

They do not come with the Ampere app over 3000mAh.

But the curious thing is, it is available at all charge turbo loading.

But only the one with the original Wireless Charger creates

over 4000mAh.

So just test with the ampere app.

Had it noticed even when I wanted to connect my wireless charging pad with another charger and nothing happened

Here are 2 links to fake 27 W chargers on Aliexpress:

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/33001884969.html

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/33007824428.html

1st link is where I bought the my charger from. It charges at the same speed as original 18 W charger. It shows "charging turbo", but the amperage doesn't go higher than 3000 mA. You can tell it's fake just by looking at the charger itself. The Mi logo looks terrible, one power plug is crooked as hell and there is no " | " symbol between chinese characters in the first row of text, like showed in OP's video. See attached photos. It also came without a box. I've also noticed that while charging with this fake charger, the the "double tap to wake up the screen" feature does not work at all, although I have it enabled, and it works normally when my phone is not charging, or it's charging with original charger.

2nd link is also fake, judging by a review and photos on Ali. The charger has the same design issues as mine from 1st link. The reviewer mentions a problem, when while charging the phone the fingerprint scanner behaves very poorly, it's very difficult to unlock the phone with it. I noticed this too, when my phone was almost fully charged (from 0 %). Is it another sign of fake charger, or does it happen with original charger as well? Could the reason be that fingerprint scanner is right above the charging port and that area of the phone gets hot while charging? Can anyone confirm?

FACT: When you see "Charging Turbo" on your screen, it DOES NOT MEAN that the charger is original, or it's charging at 27 W.

[Xiaomi Mi 9 Accessories] futiless:
Phone comes only with 18w weak charger in EU and Global varients. Everyone wants to quickcharge Turbo so they have to get a new charger. The Xiaomi Offical does 27w and enables Charge Turbo mode. The 20w wireless charger needs 27w ( I have read). There are many fakes that only work at 18w. + me and many others have been DECEIVED into buying QC 4.0 / 4.0+ chargers from reputable companies only to find out that the charger doesn't do 18w or worse!! Despite what you would think for paying top dollars for QC 4.0 /+ standard.

Upon careful examination of the original charger everyone is using to get QC Turbo, it has a higher "gear" if you will on QC 3.0 and gives it that 27w. I actually think the whole QC 4 spec approval is a total sham at this point from this phone. Why would they get better speeds from their own chargers are QC 3.0 and not any other QC 4.0 / + ones that Belkin, Hama, Razor etc. put out. ... It doesn't make sense.

Someone says they got it work at 30w but I doubt it. I think this phone is only working at QC 3.0 and they have boosted the spec making the only charger that enables this their own product.

Whew , this would thing is exasting ... why couldn't I just get one in the box. instead of paying top dollar to waste time and money...

Quite annoyed about it to say the least.

Got burned once, second try lucky. Advice to get a box was a very helpful thanks. Verified with Witrn U2 current/voltage meter reading 27W.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Accessories] SoulSmasher:
I bought this

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/33000669695.html

Does not come with a plastic box case, but the adapter was wrapped with a nylon thingy to prevent scratches.

It has USA type plug, got a EU type plug converter along with it.

Due to fake vs genuine video, everything about the adapter seems genuine, also, with Ugreen 5a cable, it does turbo charge to my Xiaomi Mi 9 (I didn't try its own cable yet).

Edit: However, due to Ampere, it doesn't get more than 2450a, so it may as well be fake. I'll try again when my battery percentage is lower.

Edit: I got the link from above posts which a user confirmed it's genuine and gives high ampere.

You can find the photos I took at the attachment.

Both its cable and 5a Ugreen cable of mine provides turbo charge feature, but the ampere is stuck about 2500 mah. My battery is about 55% right now.

I'll re-update when my battery gets even lower.

Edit: Nope, According to ampere, this doesn't go above 2500mah.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Accessories] RebornCheiko:
I recently bought an original 27w fast charging brick from Lazada Philippines for only $8.

It has "I" so we can guarantee that is an authentic prduct. It says "charge turbo" on the charging animation.

You won't be getting a consistent 4000ma on the Ampere app because of the heat. Don't base everything from that app.

Also, try to place your phone up side down so it can maintain the fast charging speed.

You have to use any Xiaomi Type C cable in order for the "charge turbo" to show up, or else it would just say "charging fast".

I even used my Redmi Note 7's cable and it worked. I tried Wilksen Type C cable and it's only "charging fast".
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Accessories] silmarx:
I bought one some time ago and despite the fact I got "Charge Turbo" logo when using it, I'm pretty sure it was fake, because the max current I could get was lower than what I could get with a cheap 18W QC 3.0 and also the build quality was obviously not a Xiaomi product. So I think even it's fake they managed to tell the phone it's supporting "Charge Turbo" so I assume this is simply a matter of protocol, but then it fails to provide the required current and/or voltage to reach the 27W.

My advise is that you should also not trust that "Charge Turbo" logo since IMO it doesn't mean it is actually charging faster than it would with a 18 QC 3.0 charger, is only saying it supports that protocol.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Accessories] SoulSmasher:
Please check my post just above yours. It has that "l" and it does not charge above ~2400 amp even though it says turbo charge with the cable that came with the phone and a baseus 5a 1m type-c cable.
