So, i was on V3.15

I got update notification of V3.18 (3.7gb?)

I clicked.

My phone battery was behaving normal, calibrated and charge current speed 5200mAh.

I upgraded to V3.18 and booom, charge current shows always half of the value.

But it charges still 5200mAh but device thinks the input current is 2500-2600mAh.

My phone is EU variant. 16/256 Ghost Edition.

I downgraded to V3.15 (yes i lost data) and problem solved. I upgraded again to V3.18 and hello, problem is back!

This causes battery to be miscalibrated.

For over a week using this update and it still persists, it did not settle down.

So now when my battery hits 18% and i charge and it hits 56%, then its not 56% but in fact, its ~80%.

Charging while phone is fully shutdown is same too. It seems like the kernel is giving false info to device. So when phone system reads 2600mAh it moves percentage by that. So when this happens it thinks it charges alow and raises percentage slow accordingly too but in fact it still charges full speed.

Anyone else experiencing this issue? Using original cable and charge adapter.

Been sending video recordings/screenshots and 8min long of video of me talking/shutting down system/rebooting but the customer service denies to admit they messed up V3.18 charging parameters. They refuse.

So tell me. Who else is experiencing this issue?

It only happens on newest OS update (NX669S_EUCommon_V3.18).

So please, if you experience same issue, write it down here and contact customer service and give them link to this thread.

Raise awareness. I fresh installed V3.18 and it still happens! Wiped data, still happens!

Not normal!

Been using this update over a week with no luck.
[Nubia Red Magic 6S Pro] newpower84:
Greetings, I am in the exact same situation like you with the latest EU update. Just created my account to post here, since I was browsing around the web searching for eventual fix for this issue. Sadly, I am unable to downgrade to the previous version and this is driving me crazy. :(

Can you suggest me a way to downgrade? (there is no factory reset option, nor wiping partition in boot mode works)
[Nubia Red Magic 6S Pro] Sachitoge:
You cant downgrade, if you do you will lose all data on phone with downgraded version.

The customer support i exchanged 15emails or so and they simply dont admit its their mistake. They just fool with me.

My belief is they intentionally try to ruin our battery to go for the new redmagic 7 device.

They even "overcharge" our phone. My phone alerted me at 74% (overvoltage battery charge stops). Voltage on battery raised up to 4.5voltage because battery charges still fast at 95-99% even tho phone thinks its at 74%.

But no, this Nubia company denies to admit their mistake with my proofs and tests.

Their technical team doesnt even check.

I mean they just need to put this update in their device and then charge from ~20% to 100% and they will see it.

We need more people gathering here up and to make our voice be heard. Come on guys everyone please stand up!
[Nubia Red Magic 6S Pro] newpower84:
I can cofirm the same voltage warning as well. This is really worrisome. I am fine losing all my data, just want to downgrade to safest version :(

https://help.redmagic.gg/hc/en-us/articles/4412024271001-REDMAGIC-6S-Pro

3.15 is the previous one we had before this bug arised.

I flashed 3.15 lost all data, then upgraded problem came back at 3.18.

But on 3.15 there isnt any.
[Nubia Red Magic 6S Pro] newpower84:
Posted to their support with a link to the thread as well, we will search our rights if this is intentional with the release of RM7...
[Nubia Red Magic 6S Pro] Sachitoge:
I also noticed, the cpu 4 main cores get stuck at 100% sometimes (for 20min or 1-2hours) causing huge heat build-up and extra high battery usage.

Sometimes it fixes itself and then quickly comes again stuck at 100%.

Only way to fix it is by rebooting phone.

Really sucks. When this happens, and you charge phone and play with charge separation, the phone goes very high temperature.

This is gaming phone? With problems?

Their kernel is bad. Their developers just DONT put effort. they cant release a simple normal clean kernel... I swear, if they dont fix these issues i will for sure go back to OnePlus as my next device, i had no such issue....
[Nubia Red Magic 6S Pro] newpower84:
They better release a proper update soon, I was wondering why the hell we had an update of almost 4GB without any concrete patch notes, neither new android ... now I understand why ...
[Nubia Red Magic 6S Pro] Sachitoge:
This stuck cpu issue been since initial release for months.

Sometimes dont u notice battery heats alot way more than before while doing same thing?

At times its 37c and then at times hits 40c.

Fun thing is when i plug charger it suddenly shows my battery is fallin from 39c to 35c.

Zzz this company and device, probably my first and last redmagic device.

Big regret...
[Nubia Red Magic 6S Pro] newpower84:
I have noticed some spikes in my battery indeed, just didn't do deep digging as you did. I will definitely pay closer attention to this strange behavior from now on ... starting to get even more worried now :(
[Nubia Red Magic 6S Pro] Sachitoge:
It wasnt like this before.

Now it just loves to stay there.
[Nubia Red Magic 6S Pro] Sachitoge:
There is hope
[Nubia Red Magic 6S Pro] newpower84:
Thanks for the update. I am still waiting response. /pray
[Nubia Red Magic 6S Pro] Sachitoge:
Still didnt receive any update.
[Nubia Red Magic 6S Pro] newpower84:
I got the following:
[Nubia Red Magic 6S Pro] Sachitoge:
We have to wait.

Im regularly checking manually update through the app.

I noticed something.

Sometimes i see CPU is very aggresively piking to 100% the first 0-3 cores (4 cores).

Its the small cores maxing to 100% frequency very often.

But at other times it doesnt and i noticed. When it doesnt spike to 100% alot, the phone is battery friendly and doesnt heat alot even during charge, but at random moment this gets triggered and cpu becomes super aggresive for NO REASON!

This is SUPER frustrating!

Very poorly optimized phone, i will definitely not buy a RedMagic phone ever again.

My next device simply OnePlus back.

Im VERY disappointed in RedMagic... Gaming phone? Really?

Nice joke.
[Nubia Red Magic 6S Pro] newpower84:
I noticed the peeks too... Very disappointed as well...
[Nubia Red Magic 6S Pro] Sachitoge:
The video fixes the stuck cpu parameters 80% of time.

It seems like an issue lying down in the phone OS.

RedMagic Gaming phone? Hah! CONSUMER NEEDS TO POINT THESE BASIC ISSUES? What is this

Even a 200$ phone doesnt have such issues.

The video is proof of the issue being unnecesarily running 4 cores at full peak and load.

Causing unnecesary heat buildup and battery drain.
[Nubia Red Magic 6S Pro] newpower84:
I just got the following answer from their support: View attachment 5566221
[Nubia Red Magic 6S Pro] Sachitoge:
What is that english i dont get it.

This device so disappointing....

I swear people that reviews these gaming devices are retards.
[Nubia Red Magic 6S Pro] Sachitoge:
A lil update

Further investigation made me come to an conclusion that this OS has memory leak.

During random time it hogs bit memory and then persists.

When i fill the ram til 95% it kills a process that causes cpu hog.

Memory dumps at 95% and clears ram from ~8gb or below up to u ~+/-9gb.

This means a bad process causes cpu resources to be on spike constantly.

Edit: its stock process seems like.

System level.
[Nubia Red Magic 6S Pro] PsychoMcSatan:
Did anyone in North America get a v4.18 OTA? I assume that NA v4.xx = Europe v3.xx.

The fact that it's still not available suggests they aren't pushing it as they know it has issues. I tried chatting with support, but they always change the subject and any responses are vague, like "R&D have been made aware and they are working on it."

I was hoping for an update to fix that half of my phone calls can't hear me, so does anyone on v3.18 know if at least that issue has been addressed? Or any observations on what else has changed other than the introduction of the charging issues?
[Nubia Red Magic 6S Pro] Sachitoge:
There is no call issue or mic issue ever in any of the EU updates.

Could be hardware issue from your-end.
[Nubia Red Magic 6S Pro] newpower84:
I think they pushed back the update here after damaging my battery with the voltage issue...
[Nubia Red Magic 6S Pro] Sachitoge:
Dont use fast charge and dont charge +75%

Dont discharge below 15%

Til update fixes it.

Now you need to do manual charge n keep eye on charge level, what a pain.

I wish i never updated my phone since day 1... Each update made it worse.
[Nubia Red Magic 6S Pro] Sachitoge:
So i digged more.

It seems like its intentionally done by Nubia.

RedMagic 5/x/pro series users after last update experiencing heating issues and slow charge problems.

On chinese redmagic 6s pro people wrote that each new update only makes device run hotter, they downgraded to few updates prior and they reported device running much cooler.

The new device RedMagic 7 seems have same issue.

RedMagic 6s pro is going to get Red Magic OS 5.0 based on Android 12 but the testers of that rom in chinese forum are stating device runs even hotter.

So yeah, this company is intentionally killing its own device to encourage people buy newer gaming phone by deteriorating battery and heating.

And i agree, on first buy of this device i had no heat issue. But now... I do...

Chinese user also stated on first bought he had no such issues.

Ill try find V3.11 EU rom to flash and stay at it, it was the most stable rom imo.

If someone has V3.11 please let me know.
[Nubia Red Magic 6S Pro] newpower84:
I will stay away from Chinese smartphones from now on... already ordered Samsung …

Link to the Chinese forum? I can't find any
[Nubia Red Magic 6S Pro] Sachitoge:
https://bbs.nubia.cn/forum.php?mod=forumdisplay&fid=805&mobile=2

Use translator as this is for chinese version of the phone, rom is different but everything else is pretty much same.

Alot people complains heating issue especially on newer update versions.

Flip pages, read comments.

I asked to give me ROM download link to EU RedMagic 6S Pro V3.11

And they say this.

Look guys, nubia is a phone company that is full of lies and empty promises.

The people reviewing the device are totally clueless.

The system is with bugs, full of it.

Disappointing.

Nubia disappointment.

Just go buy OnePlus or Xiaomi or Oppo, anything is fine but dont go for ASUS ROG, Blackshark, RedMagic etc.

Devs are all liars and they paint your eyes with fancy features.

Device itself it solid. But software is GARBAGE, and developers REFUSE to improve it.

I gave feedback om some issues, zero reply...
[Nubia Red Magic 6S Pro] riccardo.tedeschi98@gmail:
Yo bro i make now the account here.

I have same issues w new update V3.18 but i saw someone of my friends that they have V3.15. Is possibile to degreade the update from V3.15? I saw in the eu.redmagic.gg official website there is a link for that. And if i download it (V3.15) i lose all my data and everything in the phone? I use this like a main phone tho...
[Nubia Red Magic 6S Pro] Sachitoge:
Yes you can use updater part and use internal storage and flash it.

The downgrade will fail and your data will corrupt, you will be forced to factory reset inside it and once you do all your data will be lost but your phone will be in V3.15.

There is no safe way to downgrade.

Wait a bit i am in contact with developer to provide V3.10 and V3.11

They are the most stable versions, even better than V3.15.

If i get hand of it, ill give you that so you dont have to downgrade twice.

Ill keep you updated.

Look at this huge memory leak.

+7gb to system what?

Restarted device 48h ago.

So tell me, gaming phone? Right now it lags crazy.

This is such a garbage software optimization from nubia.

Garbage... From 10gb to 8gb which if 8gb i understand.

But 1day later drops go 4-5gb ram available and lags alot stuttering when changing tabs/apps.
[Nubia Red Magic 6S Pro] Sachitoge:
View attachment 5577617they refuse.

Even in chinese forum users ask older version to customer service and they refuse, user then said he will go to blackshark.

Lets see if it heats and performance drop etc.

But will that later when home.

But so far it is smooth.

Where are you located? I'm still on 3.15, I don't see an update when I check
[Nubia Red Magic 6S Pro] Sachitoge:

Damn I'm jelly. I didn't even get the 3.18 lol
[Nubia Red Magic 6S Pro] Sachitoge:
This is good update, when you get it rest assured, its like you are on 3.11.

Will see battery performance.
[Nubia Red Magic 6S Pro] Sachitoge:
Omg guys.

Im not exaggerating but V3.20 is far more superior than previous versions.

Charging parameter is more better than previous versions.

I will update battery life on this version.

However the temperature is really stable so i strongly advise everyone to update from 3.15 to 3.20

If you are on 3.10 or 3.11 then for now its better to stay at it as 3.20 still a new update.
[Nubia Red Magic 6S Pro] Lizzo:
Lol I'm trying. But it's telling me there are no updates. I'm on 3.15

You check updates and seeing nothing?
[Nubia Red Magic 6S Pro] Sachitoge:
I think this is incremental rollout

Devs are releasing it slowly on certain devices to see if any unexpected issues arise again

Very likely it will slowly be spread to more and more devices to stop the update before too late i guess.

Maybe in 48hours you will see the update too.
[Nubia Red Magic 6S Pro] Lizzo:
Nuttinggggg 😭
[Nubia Red Magic 6S Pro] Sachitoge:

Just avoid 3.18 if you see it.

Til then, keep an eye for v3.20 on updater.

@Lizzo View attachment 5577953

So far brilliant!

Wiped AccuBattery stats and did a hard-restart which calibrated battery before update and upgrade.

And it says estimated battery capacity 5000mAh.

The voltage maxes to 4.45 and if it goes 4.46V it reduces charging current slowly to keep a peak voltage.

This update really is brilliant!

I started love my device again haha.

I will never update to newer versions. Will stay on 3.20 always.

Even if new RedMagic OS 5.0 comes (Android 12).

anybody please help
[Nubia Red Magic 6S Pro] PsychoMcSatan:
I've been having issues with my 6S Pro and I think it's related to what people have been describing here. Every once in a while, it just starts heating up and getting slow, but in my case it starts rebooting. It'll reboot 6 or 7 times, then it works normally for a few hours.

But last couple days it's been getting worse so it's rebooting all the time now. Nubia support says they don't think it's hardware, but I have to send it in so they can fix it with their "professional tools". It sounds like there's a known flaw with this model. I'm out of warranty so I wonder how much I'll have to pay to get a working phone.

[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] portugalas:
Hello everyone.

Today I decided to update my phone (12.5.8 Enhanced) to the latest MIUI version. I was kind of skeptical going into it, but still went with it thinking "why not?" When the update finished and the phone booted, it immediately rebooted and I thought maybe that's supposed to do that, but then it rebooted again, this time to MIUI Recovery mode. And now I discovered that whenever the phone tries to connect to the WIFI or Mobile data, it reboots. Every time. When the internet is turned off, it doesn't. And I noticed that my phone has become a bit laggy and not as responsive as with the previous version of MIUI I had on it, even the refresh rate isn't working properly, it says 120hz but clearly it's 60hz. The update rendered my phone hardly usable. What could be the problem? Has any Poco F3 users encountered these problems? What should I do next? Should I really consider flashing a custom ROM?

Thank you in advance, any help is kindly appreciated.
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] cyanGalaxy:
Wow. This is just with a System update on a phone with a locked bootloader?

You could try to format data... aka. Factory Reset.

If you unlock your bootloader, you must be aware of the downsides. Some apps won't work (atleast not without a workaround), like Banking apps, Netflix, Super Mario Kart, Google Pay.

That's cuz Google's SafetyNet API reports to those apps that the Security-Status of your phone is "Fail", because of the unlocked bootloader.

You can hide it with Custom ROMs that specifically list "SafetyNet passed" or by using Magisk Root with a SafetyNet Fix Module. Or Both idk whatever.

I use Xiaomi.eu Custom ROM on Android 12 with Magisk Root. Everything works, but this stupid cat & mouse game with Google and Android Modders definitely sucks.
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] arkadia_1969:
I have a POCO F3 phone. No problems. Hope you used windows_fastboot_first_install_with_data_format.bat. In your case, you must not use the windows_fastboot_update_rom.bat option.

I have been using MIUI 13.0.3.0.SKHEUXM for a while. There was no problem.

Now I'm on MIUI 22.3.2 / 3 (weekly). I recommend. Works great, amazingly smooth, great option for new sidebar widgets ...

Of course, you need to have an unlocked bootloader. Look here: https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/howto-install-fastboot-image-update-info-no-ota-download.64508/

I have an unlocked bootloader. NETFLIX and Google Pay work without any problems.
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] PhotonIce:
Rule no.1 of miui: never update until the community approves of the update. there are always bugs, sometimes some are fixed, but other show up.

Im sure that there'll be a new update which will solve these problems soon, but who knows what kinds of issues you'll have after that. Maybe you should unlock the bootloader and flash back to miui 12.5x stock, so that you can actually use your phone.
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] snx413:
Exactly, all are said here ... No probleme with stable and weekly version ... Balaam custom kernel can help also on those rom.
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] Bl4Ck R34Ct0r:
After any major OS update ( I mean moving from one version of android to another) It is recommended to do a factory reset to your phone just after the update finishes.

I always do it for my phones and I did the same for my Poco F3 and had no issues so far. The phone works great, battery improved drastically for me and overall feels fresh.

Try to do a factory reset and see how it goes. MAKE SURE TO BACKUP YOUR DATA.
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] portugalas:
Thanks for the replies.
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] portugalas:
The thing is, in order to do a factory reset on the phone I have to connect to the Internet which is the thing that's causing the phone to reboot.

Can I do it like through the MIUI Recovery panel? Is it the same?
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] Bl4Ck R34Ct0r:
Yes you can do that, you either boot to recovery from option in the update menu or hold volume up and power while the phone is turned off, then select wipe data. Just make sure to delete Mi account from setting and google account ( I know you have no internet but just making sure so you won't get stuck if somehow you forget your password). Good luck.
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] tcvdh:
Got the same problem with the refresh rate.. 120hz option doesn't work and just does 60hz. I'm using the update my phone gave me. No beta or custom stuff. Just got the 13.0.3 global stable update. 120hz isn't working. Are there any better options for me now? I was thinking about flashing the previous 12.5 update back again. I heard someone here say I can use the xiaomi.eu custom ROM which works to root that one.. where can I find that ROM? And how do I flash that. (I've rooted phones before with magisk) but forgot most of it haha. So what's my best option here? I need my 120hz😜
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] portugalas:
Yeah, the refresh rate not working as intended is frustrating. As with the downgrading and flashing, I'm afraid I can't help you with it, because I haven't done anything with flashing/rooting and all that kind of stuff. Wishing the best for you.

Kindest regards and best of luck
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] tcvdh:
Yoo. Some dude on Reddit found the solution!!!! You have to disable miui optimisation. Go to developer settings. Then all the way down somewhere it says: reset to default values. Click that a few times. Now a setting a bit down should pop up saying: "enable miui optimisation" enable that if it isn't already. Then disable it again. Now go to display settings and switch to 60 then back to 120 and there you go. You can now enjoy your 120hz again
