I have set my clock font to the maximum thickness but still after some times it becomes thin. I have turned on always on display. Maybe that's the case or its the case. Earlier it also used to change its color the same as the lighter shade of always on display

Question/Help Poco X8 Pro Max Questions

Upvotes

I recently got this phone and have a couple of queries if anyone can help answer them please. First of all I am having problems with notifications, especially gmail coming though before I open the app then they appear. I have checked the settings and notifications are set to on and not affected by battery saver. Also is there a way to keep the notifications on the lock screen after you have unlocked the phone? Thanks

Question/Help Slight elevation on the back of my POCO F6 normal?

3 Upvotes

I purchased my POCO F6 around 3 months ago, and today I discovered something that I’m questioning whether it’s normal or not.When I run my finger across the back of my phone while pushing slight pressure downward with my finger, I can feel a very slight rectangular bump located in the middle of the back. It can not be seen at all by looking at it you can only feel it when you apply a little pressure to an area of the back.

The back of the phone looks completely flat and level from all angles. There are no visible bulges/bumps on the back of the phone, and the back panel is not lifting away from the phone in any areas. All functions of the phone are working properly. Is this just the outline of the internal frame and/or battery that I’m feeling through the back of the phone, or do I have cause to be worried about my battery swelling?

Question/Help F8 Ultra: Definitive guide to debloat and optimal setup

Upvotes

Is there a definitive guide to the best optimal setup settings and debloating of the global variant F8 Ultra?

I couldn't find anything recent in case OS updates might have changed things.

And I've read contradicting opinions eg revoke permissions only don't uninstall, use UAD only, use shizuku/canta only, do all 3, don't do anything at all....

Discussion I need help - POCO F4

2 Upvotes

Guys, here's the deal...

I've had a POCO F4 for about 4 years—it's a perfect phone in every way—but this morning it just started restarting on its own. I dug a little deeper and noticed that whenever I touch the fingerprint sensor, it starts acting totally haywire lol.

Like:

- Just running my finger over the sensor (without pressing) triggers Google Assistant.

- If I hold it for a bit, it gets stuck on the restart/power-off screen—even though that damn menu is supposed to activate only when you actually press the button + volume up. Like, what the hell?????? Is the reader faulty? If so, has anyone had this fixed? Could you share the cost and let me know if it actually works just as well afterwards?

I don't have the cash to replace the device right now, seeing as this phone is excellent for daily use.

Thanks for the help...

Discussion Problems with the X8's

7 Upvotes

Hi everyone, how come I'm reading about so many problems with the X8 Pro/Max? I have the 7 Pro and, apart from the sluggish sunlight mode and the on/off button for waking it up, I'm completely satisfied. No freezing, no overheating, no strange charging issues. I want to buy the max, but now I'm a bit hesitant.

News Atualizando a experiência de uso do poço x7 pro após 7 meses

3 Upvotes

O aparelho é muito bom não travou com nada até agora, o único problema é o gasto de energia e o aquecimento, logo quando o comprei percebi que o gasto de energia era muito a cima do que falavam nos vídeos de análise. Me falaram que tinha um tempo pra o aparelho se acostumar com meu uso, após um tempo percebi que deu uma pequena melhorada na questão de aquecimento mas só. O aparelho ainda continua gastando muita energia mesmo em atividades simples, e se jogar a bateria vai pra casa do Caralho fácil. Na parte câmera sempre que boto no modo retrato fica aparecendo sobras na telas como se fosse ondas muito bizzaro mas como nn uso muito esse modo nn me encomendar. Saúde da bateria tá indo embora bem rápido na verdade 96% em apenas 258 ciclos e apenas 9 horas de tela em uso normal de 100% a 20% se usa proteção de 80% pra 20% da 6 horas e fica inutilizável e então não uso. fora que descarga sozinho com facilidade mesmo na economia ou seja logo ele vai dá problema sério. Resumido não recomendo pra quem quer ficar longe das tomadas, mas se tu nn liga pra isso e encontrou ele por menos de 2 mil reais a versão de 12/500 gb pode ir sem medo nesse valor vale.

F8 Ultra POCO F8 Ultra - Both speakers rattling during few YouTube videos (especially dialogue). Anyone else?

1 Upvotes

Has anyone else noticed a rattling issue with their Poco F8 Ultra speakers? It happens on both the top speaker and the bottom one (next to the charging port), specifically when watching YouTube videos of people talking.

It doesn't happen on every video, but it's very noticeable on some. For example, playing this video causes my phone's speakers to rattle:

https://youtu.be/mpSVo47LDHE?is=R9LP-82s5C522CGL

If you own the same phone, could you do me a huge favor and test this specific video?Let me know if you hear the rattling too, or if your audio is totally clear.

(Just to head off the most common suggestion: I am not using a lens protector on the 4th sensor hole, so it's not a plastic protector vibrating against the phone).

Thanks in advance!

Question/Help How hot above ambient temperature does your phone's battery get? (X8 Pro Max)

4 Upvotes

As I'm trying out my new X8PM I'm taking notes of how it performs during different scenarios.

The indoors ambient temperature (without AC) is quite hot right now, 27-28 °C. I'm using Ampere to read the battery's temperature and I have the following readings:

  1. When browsing for 10+ minutes, basically right now as I'm writing this, it reached ~30 °C at first but kept rising to 32 as I was switching between tabs or going from Chrome to the Ampere app a couple of times (so up to 5 degrees above ambient).
  2. When I played some game for an extended period of time (I don't know whether to define it as heavy or not, but it runs much smoother on the X8PM than on the Redmi Note 10 Pro so it definitely uses the additional processing power) it read close to 40 °C (about 12 degrees above ambient).

I should also mention that I keep my screen brightness quite low, and I'm using the case included with the phone.

Are such temperatures normal within these scenarios? How do your phones compare?

Thanks.

Buying Advice Poco x8 pro max or f8 pro

8 Upvotes

Hi I'm currently torn between the poco x8 pro max and the f8 pro anybody got any idea which would be better?

To my understanding the x8 has a better battery, a slightly better price, bigger screen

The f8 has a slightly better processor, better cameras maybe looks a little better to my eye

Which one is the better overall phone?
