[Xiaomi Redmi 5A Questions & Answers] vita000:
Hallo,

I bought a new Redmi 5a (from somewhere - i guess china), flash latest MIUI, but it goes on edge instead of 4g compared to my old redmi 5a.

If I'm on strong signal, the new one goes on 4g, but phone is for me useless.

"Only" one differences is in model, the new one is MCE3B (my old is MCG3B)

I tried some forceing LTE what is on youtube, but it doesn't work.

Photos are frome the same place with same sim card.

Any suggestions (or link maybe - someone already has the same problem)

?

Thank you.

[Xiaomi Redmi 5A Questions & Answers] vita000:
A month of studying before replying, I hope I'm not tottaly out.

But both of them are Redmi's 5A, only differeent versions. So they shoud work. But that "china version" doesn't.

Here is the coverage map. And it seem's 4G works on 800MHZ, so any of them shouldn't work, but that MCG3B version works.
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] steveparry1:
A few weeks ago my widgets stopped updating. So all my weather forecasts are out of date. They don't update when I tap the little circle in top right of the widget either. Can anyone help? Thanks.
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] badmania98:
Verify permissions.
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] steveparry1:
Thank you. Could you be a bit more specific? How do I do that?
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] badmania98:
Generally speaking a widget is a part of an app. That app should have location permission as Allow (all the time in this case). You can find this on phone settings/apps/apps/ that app settings or phone settings/notifications/ that app tab.

In the app could be also other settings (how often it will refresh, etc.).

Location must be activated on the phone (GPS or/and network).

Internet connection must be available.
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] steveparry1:
That is SO helpful! I was beginning to think the operating system on the phone (P30) was too old to allow them for some unknown reason. I have been through every weather app and made them all allowed all the time. I think I may have altered them when I got a notification stating an app was using excess battery. Thank you again.
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] badmania98:
If you have a P40 Pro keep it as long as is possible. It is one of the best phone if it is configurated good. Also with a good GMS solution (if GMS is needed).

Oh. You have P30? It is good also. ( your thread is on P40 area)
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] steveparry1:
I bought it for the x3 optical telephoto lens. Would have preferred the x5 on the P30 Pro but physically was larger than I wanted. For my next phone I want one with a 1" image sensor and variable aperture. Can you recommend any? I think Huwawei is a no-go now because of Google resections. So guess I'll be looking at a Xiaomi or similar brand.
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] badmania98:
a. Xiaomi= good hardware+bad sofware

b. New Huawei phones= GMS is available on HarmonyOS, without Google location accuracy/GPay.

Some apps can not work. EMUI phones can be rebranded (except Mate 40 Pro)

No 5G + on some networks no WIFi-Calling. No eSim too on HarmonyOS

What I recommend as a good phone, not just for photo:

a. Android: P30 Pro pro or P40 Pro.

b. IOS: Iphone 13 Pro Max

Conclusion: No Android phone for me in next years.
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] steveparry1:
I spoke too soon. Widgets are not updating again. They only update when I restart the phone. I wonder if there is some deeper issue with the settings?
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] steveparry1:
I tried to add a second widget for weather by the UK Metereological Office. See screenshot - it's been like that for two days. Tapping on it brings up the app but it doesn't fix the widget.
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] steveparry1:
Badmania, I wondered if you could help. I just updated this thread. Thank you.
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] badmania98:
identify the app ( the app name)

search the app in:

Settings\Apps\App launch – set it Manually Managed ( Auto-launch + Secondary launch + Run in background = ON)

Settings\Apps\Apps\ 3 dots (right upper corner)\Special access\Battery optimization\ Not allowed changed to All Apps\
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] badmania98:
I dont know. See the app configuration.
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] steveparry1:
Thank you. I did the first step previously without it making any difference. But I didn't do the second step you detailed above! I've now changed that and restarted. I hope this will fix it.
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] steveparry1:
Well, that didn't fix the issue. I'm still getting the 'Missing Data" on the widget as above screenshot.

I wanted to install a trial version of the telmap navigator and unfortunately, I did not find it in the list. there is another device that is similar to my touch cruise
[Touch Cruise General] scarymonkey:
I dont know if you are still looking for the answer to this but TelMap advised me to use the Kaiser download. Everything seems to work well on it too, though make sure you have a generous data tariff as it will access this quite frequently if you do not follow the route it suggests.
[Touch Cruise General] chetzy:
just installed kaiser version worked fine.

only thing i did on top was to delete the background.jpg file as it didnt fit the screen reso.

[Redmi K20 / Xiaomi Mi 9T Questions & Answers] giffmetangoplz:
Well, i saw Mi 9T Pro have 3 slot, x2 sim and one for micro sd card, but isnt two model is same, Mi 9T is just global and K20 is for china

So if i'm buying 3 slot tray, does it work ? because i saw this video :
[Redmi K20 / Xiaomi Mi 9T Questions & Answers] zgfg:
Mi 9T (aka Redmi K20) and Mi 9T Pro (aka Redmi K20 Pro) are different models - they have diff chipsets (Pro has more powerful processor)

Please use GSMArena and check exactly the models there:

Compare Xiaomi Mi 9T vs. Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro - GSMArena.com

www.gsmarena.com

Per specs there, both do not support SD cards

So be careful about which one you talk, ask, buy for and put in.

It's not that Pro is for China and not Pro for Global or vice versa, both were selling elsewhere and had regional firmwares for China, India, Russia, EEA, Global

And be careful, there is Redmi 9T that is newer and totally different phone (bigger, etc) - Redmi 9T had nothing with Mi 9T (Pro or not):

Compare Xiaomi Mi 9T vs. Xiaomi Redmi 9T - GSMArena.com

www.gsmarena.com
[Redmi K20 / Xiaomi Mi 9T Questions & Answers] zgfg:
Apparently, you are asking about Redmi 9T - but you missed the XDA subforum

For your phone, post (and read guides, use ROMs, etc):

Redmi 9 Power / 9T

The Redmi 9 Power is a 6.53" phone with a 1080x2340p resolution display. The Qualcomm SM6115 Snapdragon 662 chipset is paired with 4GB of RAM and 65/128GB of storage. The main camera is 48+8+2+2MP and the selfie camera is 8MP. The battery has a 6000mAh capacity.

[Redmi K20 / Xiaomi Mi 9T Questions & Answers] giffmetangoplz:
oh yeah ty for that information, look like redmi is newer version
[Redmi K20 / Xiaomi Mi 9T Questions & Answers] zgfg:
It's not newer version, it's totally different (and newer) phone

This Forum here is for Redmi K20 - and your phone is Redmi 9T

(Redmi K20 = Mi 9T but it has nothing to do with your Redmi 9T)

Don't mix Mi line with Redmi line.

Mi line has its own names/numbers, Redmi line different numbers

In some cases they sold the same phone under both Mi and Redmi lines but then the Mi number (here 9T) is totally different than the corresponding Redmi number (K20)

So your Redmi 9T is not 'newer' Redmi K20 (this Forum here is about) but something totally different
[Redmi K20 / Xiaomi Mi 9T Questions & Answers] zgfg:
Edit: I was also not precise - so I edited my answers above

This Forum here is for Redmi K20 (K Twenty - I omitted "K" in my original answes above, now I corrected them), your phone is Redmi 9T (Nine T)

---

So I would not consider Redmi 9T as a 'newer version' of Redmi K20 - there are Redmi K30 and even newer Redmi K40 that can be better considered as market replacements for the old Redmi K20
[Redmi K20 / Xiaomi Mi 9T Questions & Answers] giffmetangoplz:
yeah my phone is k20 pro which flash to Mi 9T Pro, they put same name for other devices just confused me
[Sony Xperia 1 V] myironlung:
Holding the fingerprint button opens Google assistant by default. I don't like that so I removed the app from the phone. Now holding the button does nothing. I'd like to remap the button to give it another functionality. I saw that on pre-Android 13 Xperia phones an app called Xperi+ could do this, I tried but it didn't work. Does anyone know of an up to date method to remap this button on the Xperia 1 V? Root methods are acceptable too.

And if you have already done this, what did you decide to remap the button to? I'm thinking I might just set it to the phone app. But if there is a decent open source alternative to Google assistant, I would possibly use that instead.
[Sony Xperia 1 V] Hyperfluxe:
I'm also looking for a way to remap the sensor hard press button as well as the camera button at the bottom right.
[Sony Xperia 1 V] Titanricky8:
try renaming the app package name to the google assistant one and try if it opens
[Sony Xperia 1 V] Darkwizh:
I use this app to remap "tripple tap volume down" to open google wallet. and remap normal voulme down to reduce volume as normal. Also remapped the camera button to camera as i am on a custom rom and miss that feature

[OnePlus Nord 3 / Ace 2V] moolipsum:
Helps to unbrick your phone with unlocked bootloader from almost any state, except for EDL.

1. If nothing is displayed on the screen (black screen), you need to hold down the "volume +" and "power" buttons simultaneously (about 15 seconds) until booting starts. If the phone does not boot normally, but remains in bootloader mode, then proceed to the next step.

PS: There may be cases when after "volume +" and "power" at the moment when booting starts with a black screen you need to press and hold "volume -" and "power" (about 5 seconds) to get into bootloader mode.

2. Download the full set of tools Platform-Tools_AllInOne.zip (for Windows) and unpack it into a folder, install MTK USB driver. Download the full zip-image of the firmware of OS version of the target (on which the OS was bricked), unpack it and transfer the payload.bin file to the Platform-Tools_AllInOne folder. Run Extract-Payload.cmd, wait for completion and rename the resulting folder "extracted_date_first_process" to "ROM".

3. Connect the phone to the computer with the native cable and run (as administrator) fastboot_Unbrick.cmd. In the process of working of the botnik the phone will reboot into fastbootD mode, wait for the inscription "Unbrick completed".

PS: If a partition write error occurs, but under it there is "scheduled for flashing later", then do not pay attention, the .bat will try to flash this partition again after reboot.

4. Select English and Reboot. If it did not boot normally, go to recovery and select Wipe data, then Format data.

PS: If you are going to lock the bootloader, make sure to install the target OS version twice via local update before doing so.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] Donnyohs:
So I've owned my Note 20 Ultra since release date, but I for some reason I haven't been able to charge with my anker chargers or usb c cables, my laptop still charges with it, my other usb c charging devices still do, but not my phone. I did find out that my phone is charging with a USB A to USB c charging cable though, so what would the problem be? I'm getting confused about it, since i don't know why it would stop charging the way its been charging for the entire time i've had the phone. Also I cleaned my charging port, thinking it might be dirty, but its still not charging.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
Erratic charging can be a indication of a battery failure. Any swelling is a failure, if so replace immediately.

If the battery capacity is lower than 80% the battery has reached the end of its usable lifespan and should be replaced before it fails which can destroy the phone.

Try with phone powered down and in safe mode; 3rd party app interference.

Any recent upgrades or updates; they can and do break Samsung's.

Possible C port pcb failure.

The worst a mobo failure, which is rare unless water damaged or dropped without a good case.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] Donnyohs:
I haven't tried the powered down charging, but I've always used spigen cases, as in when I pre-order a phone I order the spigen case on the same day, so my phone never goes without protection. How do I check for battery capacity, I know how to on my laptops, but didn't know what app for android. So a possible c port failure would let me charge with a USB-a to usb c cable but wouldn't work with USB c to USB c?

No. Just a bad 3rd world ghetto plan.

You can't even do heat shrink tubing properly like that.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] nak3dsnail:
same as This guy but super old phone, he reheat using oven toaster and voila its working again.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] blackhawk:
The temperature variation between where solder will flow and the semiconductors be damaged is pretty narrow. Unknown temperature/btu's means no way way to properly control it.

SOC's and many chipsets are BGA's meaning their contacts are under the chip, invisible so you can't tell when or if the solder is reflowing.

You'll likely destroy it...
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] nobitamobile:
You mean if the phone's motherboard is damaged. Just replace the mainboard, right?
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] blackhawk:
Or repair it correctly. With the needed skillset and a hot air station you could reflow the chipset. Assuming that is actually the problem. Reflowing the whole pcb could be problematic and a reflow oven is needed.

You can try but don't expect a miracle...
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] nobitamobile:
What do you think if you just heat it up and use it for a few months and it's still very durable? while another x3 pro is very carefully made but not as durable? With electronic devices and small components like mobile phones, you can't just talk about it in theory, bro!
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] blackhawk:
I did electronic assembly for decades.

Sounds like bs to me.

okay bro. we are different.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] Snakeforhire:
Yeah, as long as you could manage to find a new or used mobo, I reckon it'd be much cheaper to not try the reflowing route...

IMO a repair would only be worth it if it's covered by some kind of warranty or insurance..
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] blackhawk:
You need something like this:

reflow oven - Google Shopping

*

However there may be parts added in stages after it's first reflowed. They need to be removed.

Any conformal coating needs to be removed first.

Of course all this assumes there's enough solder and no failed components. That's a lot of assuming and wishful thinking.

A good used mobo be a lot more practical, easier, and more likely to succeed.

* you can get them pretty inexpensively now. Great if you build up your own small SM projects. You still need to know how to use it though... skillset, and that is the trick.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] Lu5ck:
Doesn't heat gun works? Though disassembly the board will be pain in the ass.

You need at minimum a temperature controlled hot air tool. And the skillset(s) to use it.
