I've had my note 10 lite for a month now.

I really regretted buying that phone.

There are a lot of bugs.

1. Updates for the global version are already late, what will happen in the future ???? Disaster, all older models received updates, brand new is not.

2. Fast typing on the keyboard is almost impossible

3. High battery capacity: in reality, the battery drains very quickly in standby mode

4. WiFi signal strength and speed is twice weaker as on my old redmi 5 plus phone

5.Apps like Chrome and YouTube are constantly crashing

6.Proximity sensor issue

7. It is impossible to buy quality tempered glass for that phone.

8. the fingerprint sensor works very poorly
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] Liron123:
1) True, this phone needs more updates. Software isn't optimized. I have lots of lags when swiping

2) no problem i type extremely fast on this phone

3) battery usage is excellent. Very low battery drain. I avoid AOD because it drains more battery

4) Normal reception and i had the same phone as you did

5) YouTube working fine. Chrome freezes from time to time. Phone lacks optimization as i said in n1

6) it was fixed for me in last updates

7) only silicon screen protector works i think, which is better against shatters but scratches more easily. I have mixed thoughts about it.

8) you can't expect under display fingerprint sensor to work amazing like a regular one. Every phone like that. I added the middle of my thumb as FP instead of the top of the thumb and it improved registration of FP unlock for me.

It's good phone, even notifications i managed to fix by playing in settings and locking some apps. My biggest problem is longevity, the phone already lags and it lacks 5g support. If poco f2 pro wasn't that overpriced back when i needed a new phone i would've preferred this one. But it's still a solid value phone and the screen is just excellent.

Thanks

Thanks for some tips to improve experience on that phone
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] Plekst:
1. Did xiaomi promise you update by this day? No. Update is coming. Its not a disaster, and its certainly not a bug.

2. No problems here

3. No problems here

4. I only have ~200mbps connection, but i get that in both 2.4 and 5ghz. No problems here

5. I dont use youtube, so wouldnt know, but chrome is working fine here.

6. I read about some proximity sensor problems, but that was a month ago. It was supposedly fixed in update. I make and recieve 10+ calls a day, havent noticed it missbehaving.

7. Oh yeah, thats a bug for sure lmao.

8. Fingerprint sensor works perfectly fine. Keep in mind, its an in screen one, you cant compare it to capacitive one. As far as in screen readers go, mi note 10 lite is average. Its not the fastest, its not slowest either.

Anyways, to each their own i guess. Goodluck with your next device. I bought this together with redmi note 9 pro, after some testing i liked note 10 lite way more, gave rn9 pro to girlfriend.
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] Kediraksith:
1. Didnt care, I care more about custom ROMS which doesn't exist yet.

2. I can never type fast on touch screens so.....

3. Totally agree. Im beginning to suspect is it because of the always display on (i need it for notifications) or is it im using Nova Launcher. "SYSTEM" always show high batt usage.

4. Agree, my previous Mi6, Note8pro have no issue in my own room, but this Mi10Lite have wifi issues once I close my door.

5. No problems, maybe coz i'm on Custom Rom.

6. Agree

7. Didnt really affect me on that.

8. Agree... coming from dedicated FP sensor at the back of the phone, I did read that this is normal. None of the on screen FP scanner will perform as well as a dedicated scanner at the back of the phone.

Verdict? I should have gone for the RMN9Pro...
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] ulsa:
1. A bug??? It is not a disaster. It will be released when ready. I do not want a half finished ROM.

2. Not a problem here. Maybe practise?

3. Pulled the charger in the evening. 7h 45m later it was at 99%. Perfect! 150+ apps, wifi on.

4. I get 300 Mbps sitting about 6 m from the router with a ceiling/floor in between.

5. I have problems with Chrome freezing. Choosing it from recent apps fixes that but definitely a bug. Both beta and stable.

6. Have not noticed that. Just checked and it works fine. I don't call much without head-set though.

7. Don't know. Would not use it since I guess the fingerprint sensor will be worse.

8. Same here but I can only compare with Redmi Note 5 which has a capacitive sensor and I really miss that so I do not know if this phone is worse than other with screen sensors. From what I here it is not.

Edit: Added battery drain info. 1% for almost 8 hours.
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] .czarodziej:
1. Not a bug! It's just a matter of the coming months. I'd rather wait a month longer for a polished update to MIUI12 than get it now with a lot of bugs and wait 3 months for patches. Are you in hurry? Install xiaomi.eu when it comes out.

2. Maybe for someone with tiny hands. No problem here.

3. No problem with battery drain BUT it could be better optimalized.

4. No problems with WiFi. Try to change your router configuration (like CHANNEL).

5. I don't use Chrome but YT works perfectly - no crashes.

6. Same here - waiting for a patch.

7. I'm using hydrogel screen protector.

8. That's not so bad, it's fine for me. Try to add finger again.

The only con of this phone which I noticed is the loudspeaker that plays average (low and flat sound).
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] grki1:
Hydrogel screen protector

Where you buying hydrogel screen protector

But seriously: I've seen some on Aliexpress.
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] saffi.baig:
Which rom are you on? Global (Mi) or (Eu). Bcoz 1% standby battery drain in 8 hours is insane! Its really good.

And do share your charging pattern. Do you charge your phone from >10% to 100% and do you charge it over night? Have you done any sort of calibration. Just give me some advice how can i improve the battery drain.
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] ulsa:
Global ROM

I always charge during the night regardless of what percentage I’m on.

Here are a few charges. All numbers are approximate but within 5 min and 2%.

It shows that I should probably start charging every other day instead of every day.

10=>100% 60 min

60=>100% 30 min

48=>100% 35 min

53=>100% 30 min

62=>100% 30 min

I have done nothing to lower drain so I can unfortunately not give you any advice at all.
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] Plekst:
Main drain on this device is Always on Display. People expect AOD and 2% drain over night. Thats not possible. Turn it off, then you will get 2% drain overnight.
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] MemoBustamante:
1. It is true, to be a new mobile it is already a little late miui 12

2. No problem

3. I think the duration is good, it only drains when I play heavy games or constant use of the mobile

4. No problem

5. No problem

6. I have this problem in calls, sometimes I think it is because it is dirty in that part and the sensor does not work well

7. I bought 2 hydrogel lenses from aliexpress (I installed the first one very badly) but it is good, it seems that you have nothing on

8. No problem, the sensor looks good to me, my wife has the MI 9 and it works just as well.

In general I think it is an excellent team, I hardly see anything bad, I come from an MI 9 that broke (my fault) but I highly recommend it 9/10
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] sage of six paths:
I love the device. What i don't love is the curved screen, but i wouldn't love that on any phone. So for my next device, flat screen is a must. Battery lasting me 2 days easy. Don't have to charge it often, and the battery will last longer. Overall excellent device.
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] Baronik:
I always tried to get phones with clean android (or as close as possibble) and looks like MIUI, despite 12 iterations, is still full of bugs. I have EU global version bought from retail store and I have mixed feelings about the phone:

PROS:

- nice amoled screen that cover almost all front of phone

- jack 3,5 mm and NFC that are sometimes missing in other phones

- excellent battery time for me (up to 10h SoT with 2 days usage, lately, when I don't used phone that frequently, I get from monday to friday on one charging, so standby time is more than adequate)

CONS:

- maybe it's my inability to set it up correctly, but for gods sake, it's one of basic Android features - notifications - it works dreadful. Apart from smses that I can hear, the rest just doesn't work properly - there is no sound, there is nothing on blockade screen (despite allowing all of them to be shown) and I can only see the icons when I open phone to main screen. It shouldn't work like that.

- proximity sensor sometimes doesn't work, I couldn't find the reason for that, probably just a bug...

- edged screen is not the best idea - movies looks strange on those edges, it's not easy to apply screen protectors, but at least I haven't got any accidental touches resulting in unwanted actions.

- Chrome indeed freezing completely from time to time - you need to use multitasking screen and go back to be able to use the app again. I use Vanced as YT, so can't say about freezing in YT.

- fingerprint reader is crappy - I used one below the screen (Moto Z Play), on the back (Zenfone 6) and on the side (Moto Z Play 3) and that under the screen is very difficult to use - it works around 6/10 times and only if I touch it directly, no way to read part of the finger - only direct touch in the exact center of the reader.

- wallpaper change works only from MIUI menu, other 3rd party apps (Google's Wallpapers, Walloid, WalP) can't apply blockade screen changes, only home screen.

- ****load of apps I can't uninstall irritating me - I really like apps I use for years and right now I have at least 20+ apps I would like gone, but I can't.

Most of cons can be eliminated with software fixes, but I'm afraid that if they couldn't done it with 11 MIUI iterations, 12th version won't do much in that case...
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] mejgs:
These are my impressions, and I've just bought this device, so I dont know anything about previous bugs on Miui 11.

In my opinion, this is classic Xiaomi phone, and that means it's affordable, has great features....but Miui always has some bugs, which are really annoying. Every single Xiaomi I had (and there were lot's of them) had some minor problems. But I always end up buying one with modifications/debloating/custom roms in mind. My last 4 Xiaomis had problems with battery life...although they had 4000+ mAh batteries....My opinion is: If you're planning to buy one, and use it straight out od the box...don't bother, it's much better to buy slightly used Huawei (although I dont like EMUI looks, it's much smoother, and their battery life is excellent)

Cons:

1) Camera quality is cr*p....it's ok in good lighting only

2) Lack of proximitiy sensor is really a dumb decision, and it's really annoying when you cannot mantain phone calls like u shoud

3) Fingerprint sensor is also bad, it's not better, maybe even worse than Redmi K20's, which was released 1.5 yrs ago

4) Miui 12....what's with all the fancy animations? Who needs that anyway??! Although I have to admit it's more fluid than Miui 11, which was really awful.

I managed to sort most of the annoyances by flashing Xiaomi Eu 12.0.3.0 and dedbloated it heavily. Miui dialer app is much better than Google one, battery life is also better, and camera is acceptable with Gcam from Nikita. I also noticed proximity sensor problem is gone, all is working ok now.

After some testing I finally found a GCam that supports the Ultrawide Lense without needing to root/flash a module/disabling SELinux

How to install

1) Allow Unknown sources

2) Install the APK

3) Copy the XML file to Internal Storage/trCamera/XMLConfigs

4) Apply it within the app by double pressing on the black space below the shutter button​

APK download: https://f.celsoazevedo.com/file/cfiles/gcm1/trCamera_V7_FINAL.apk

XML Download: (see attached file)

Note: The XML provided is a basic one I made that ensures a good experience, I highly recommend you look at the settings yourself and make changes if necessary

[Xiaomi Mi A3 Themes, Apps, and Mods] eric2:
They have a newer version of the tigerCamera: V7.1.

How does your config file differs from the one provided on the https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-tigr/ page?
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Themes, Apps, and Mods] CLS_phone:
Thanks a lot for sharing this, but I can't figure out how to bring up the aux lens.

Config file has been saved under \trCamera\XMLCongfig.

And the toggles are set as the attached screen shots.

What have I missed?
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Themes, Apps, and Mods] CLS_phone:
Also, I found quite some toggles under "Control of viewfinder buttons" are not working properly....
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Muda42:
Hmm are you running stock or custom ROM ?
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Themes, Apps, and Mods] CLS_phone:
Stock. Global version.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Muda42:
Try running adb shell getprop vendor.camera.aux.packagelist in ADB and send me the result
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Themes, Apps, and Mods] CLS_phone:
Still the same, no camera button on the viewfinder. :(
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Themes, Apps, and Mods] CLS_phone:
Oh, there's nothing after the adb command. I redo several times, still the same.

Is this what you need?

https://photos.app.goo.gl/xtoDV6nRwuSNm4xU6
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Muda42:
Can you send me the output of the aforementioned command ?
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Muda42:
Hmm I probably sent you a non working command. It looks like the stock ROM doesn't allow trCameras package name (org.codeaurora.snapcam) to use auxiliary cameras (which is strange because normally every Android OS should allow it). This is only a theory and an inspection of the build properties is required to prove this.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Themes, Apps, and Mods] CLS_phone:
Sorry, there's no output. You may see in the attached photo of post #8.

That's my laptop's screen in the viewfinder. You may see there's nothing after the last two lines.

[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Questions & Answers] Deleted member 11041951:
Good morning all,

I'm a returning member from quite a few years back, haven't loaded a ROM or rooted an Android device in years. My question is this, I have a S10+ G975U and working in IT, have some security based concerns with this (and any) device:

Items installed against my will (COVID trackers, etc)

Access given to bloatware that is not able to be uninstalled (AR programs, etc)

Bloatware I don't want or need

Given this, I also understand the necessity of keeping devices up-to-date and check firmware updates on a near daily basis. Is there a root/ROM that will allow me better control, security, ability to control what apps/features are installed and stay up to date in a reasonable manner?

Thanks ahead.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Questions & Answers] StoneyJSG:
Not on the G975U with a locked bootloader. Root nor a custom ROM is possible.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Questions & Answers] Deleted member 11041951:
Crap, well, guess I need a new device in the near future. Guess I'll post up for recommendations. I want something within these specs that gives me the most control over data, privacy and what is and isn't on the phone.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] chrisnice906:
Ever since I got this phone even on stock firmware, if I turn the phone off and then turn back on my volume and sound go away. This is not including reboots. phone works fine after a normal reboot. It is just when I turn it off to charge and then turn back on. So I decided to go ahead and flash havoc ROM and I'm still having the same issues. Anyone else experiencing this?

In order for me to fix this I have to dirty flash the zip again.

Sometimes just accessing twrp I get this issue.

Edit... This is happening on every rom I flash

2 edit... sometimes clearing dalvik and cache brings back sound (while rooted running any ROM) and even on stock firmwares , turning off phone I will eventually have to reboot recovery(stock) and wipe data, dalvik and or cache. Weird issue! Anyone?
[Android Head-Units] xxcrashxx:
Has anyone tried using two different sets of steering wheel controls? Basically I'm wanting to use an aftermarket steering wheel controller along side of the factory steering wheel buttons? I found a cool looking aftermarket one that connects up to the key wire. If that would work, would I just splice into the existing key1(along with the factory controls), or would I use the key2 wire on the headunit?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 3] nk33:
I just received my watch in the UK direct from Samsung.

The 2 main reasons i purchased the watch are for the features above.

1) How do i get to the ECG and BP app on my new watch (its on firmware 5 and above)

2) I didnt realise my network provider had to offer a plan so i could use my watch as a phone if my phone was not with me - now i find ou Three dont offer plans for this watch....have i no choice but to switch provider? If so which providers offer a plan?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 3] blueskies1977:
Vodafone offer plans
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 3] the_ape:
Mines on EE (not purchased from them, from Samsung directly)
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 3] agbva:
Look on youtube for the instructions, but I can confirm you can easily install the ECG and BP (look for the instructions that only use your phone and not need a computer). It's just a download and install two apk's then give the watch permissions. You'll need a BP cuff to calibrate the BP function and it looks to require this every 28 days.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 3] dkdoshi:
When you sideload ECG/BP app as shown in the YouTube videos, does it create problems when you receive official update?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 3] nk33:
i dont get it - this watch is advertised as having BP and ECG sensors - yet we have to jump through hoops to get it to work? I just dont get it why are the apps not already installed on the device?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 3] mafy31:
According to Samsung it is because they are not allowed yet in certain countries by authorities.

Truth behind this could be that it is not accurate enough though ? Dunno...

It pisses me off when all brands, even cheapest watches get SPO2 and other ECG... Apple got this in no time.

Yet it takes over a year and 2 watch models of advertizing these features and still they arent available for Active 2 and GW3 here in France.

Was lucky to find these apk but still missing SPO2 feature ! I wonder if i could install the right Samsung health to get it to work, thru a VPN for example, but since my GW3 is LTE i dont think i'll be able to do this... i cannot remove the sim card like we do on smartphones. Also maybe it is done through a firmware update, dunno.

So we're let with a O² tracker that is never used for a premium price ?

Then next year they will release a GW4 and advertize a SOP² "that really works" !...

The watch is awesome really, but the brand is ****tiest on the planet, they are crooks.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 3] kodiak799:
I didn't have any issues with the update, that I'm aware of.

It seems if you have the LTE version, the update will come through your carrier (so you'll have to activate your watch to get the update). That update contains the SPo2 feature. But you're not missing anything - it's slow and extremely temperamental, so I don't think it can be integrated into a fitness app for anything useful. I don't know if it's just the LTE version with the issues, but right now the SPo2 feature is completely worthless.

You can do the hack to get the ECG and BPM features. Nice to have, but if you're healthy you won't be using them. Also on-demand only, so they're not going to monitor your health 24/7 in the background. I think for BPM that could be automated, and that would be pretty big. ECG requires you "complete the circuit" placing your index finger on one of the buttons, so it will never be able to take automated readings in the background.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 3] nk33:
But I am in the UK - isnt this one of the countries it is allowed in? Maybe i am missing something...could the app be in the health app on the phone and i have to enable it from there?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 3] agbva:
There are 2 apps required: Samsung Health and a new one, Samsung Health Monitor. The second one also installs on the watch and is what allows BP and ECG.

As noted above the O2 sensor is close to worthless. It reads all over the place. One time my level is 85% (bad enough for serious medical treatment) and 5 minutes later I'm at 97%. When you watch it, you can see your heart rate strong, weak, then ? Then, without moving your arm, you take a BP measurement, and the heart rate is perfectly even and smooth. The systolic (high) numbers seems to be within about 5 points of my cuff, the diastolic (lower) numbers within about 3 points, and the pulse accurate within 1 or 2 bpm of the cuff. Quite good for this device, in my opinion. You need to touch the button to take a ECG and like the BP, looks very stable, although I have no experience knowing what I'm looking at.

PS: my watch is bluetooth only, so the O2 issues are not related to the LTE version
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 3] mafy31:
Could you try to take measures with the watch below your wrist instead of above ?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 3] kodiak799:
That's not how it's supposed to work! :p

I'm hoping it's just a software fix. It's hard to imagine Samsung released this feature given how many people appear to be having issues. Seems like it would be a simpler thing to pull off than ECG or BPM, which appear to work surprisingly well.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 3] mafy31:
I have read somewhere that it worked better this way for spo2... Dunno ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 3] kodiak799:
I saw that, too. But that's not how anyone wants to wear their watch. Gives hope for a software fix, though.

I assume the BPM works very similar, with respect to sensors. So it seems like it should be fixable.
