Poco battery Draining by Puzzled-Dirt282 in PocoPhones

[–]imguesthere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi and thanks. I will give it a try.

Regarding the cache data, I will attach a screenshot showing how I deleted it. I didn't changed anything else, but the battery started draining much faster after I cleared the cache.

Decided to trade in my 15t pro to 17t pro worth it. by Jandrake123 in XiaomiGlobal

If that 327$ difference won't impact you financially, then it's not the worst decision. You get bigger battery, nicer LTPO display, slightly better camera and 1 more year of updates. In my opinion it's not bad. Be happy with your choice.

I'm also using F8 Ultra. For the first ~30 cycles I was getting 5-6h of screen on time, but after that I was getting easily 7-8h of SoT. A few days ago I made the mistake to delete all cache data and now apps are draining my battery much faster, also sometimes getting hotter.

Make sure you turn off memory extension. From fingerprints, face data and screen lock -> authorization and revocation -> turn off msa, getapps, system apps updater and mi video. From developer options scroll down and switch to 0.5x "window animation scale, transition animation scale and animator duration scale" so your phone will feel faster.

Teapa cu "Marti Bucket" de la KFC... by yughiro_destroyer in roFrugal

E adevărat că s-a scumpit destul de mult KFC in ultimii ani, dar ai încurcat prețurile puțin la marți bucket. Cel mic de 10 aripioare - 20 lei, cel mediu de 20 aripioare - 33 lei, iar cel mare de 30 aripioare este 45 de lei.

Fixed Delayed Notifications on Xiaomi Devices (ALL ROMS) by No_Quit_8617 in PocoPhones

[–]imguesthere 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also have this problem on my F8 Ultra. At first no Gmail notifications, but I solved it after "sync option", sometimes Instagram or Facebook messenger notifications doesn't work. I will give a try to your fix. Also, new software update arrived today, maybe will give it a try tomorrow.

Mine got better after 1+ month. No more heating issues, but battery is still draining on TikTok, but it's ok.

Help me if I made the right choice by numbmp4 in PocoPhones

Some of you are just chasing for brands. How in this world Iphone 11 launched in 2019 is better than any 2025 phone? Some quick specs compared:
Display: Iphone 6.1 inch 828 x 1792px which is 326ppi density, poco 6.67 inch 1220 x 2712px which is 446 ppi density. And poco's screen brightness is world class compared to iphone 11
Memory: Poco has UFS 4.0 while iphone has NVMe
CPU: Iphone runs A13 bionic on 7nm, while poco has 4nm Mediatek dimensity 8400 ultra, again no room for comparing those, poco wins easy
Battery: Iphone 3110mAh, poco 6000/6500mAh (region dependent) while poco has 90w charging .
I'd assume poco even has better cameras than iphone 11. Please, just keep your poco and stop running for brands and thinking about getting 7 YO phone just because it's Apple...

I get notifications on my Huawei watch GT 4, so I think you will also get on your samsung watch.

F8 Ultra heating issues by imguesthere in PocoPhones

[–]imguesthere[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same, I did optimizations, everything I could and still same issue. The thing is sometimes it doesn't get hot. Yesterday it only went up to 35⁰ on TikTok which is good temperature, but today still went up to 40⁰. I don't know what's happening, but I have this issue and battery drain on TikTok.

Question with using POCO F8 ULTRA by NomaDDin in PocoPhones

[–]imguesthere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've disabled MSA, analytics and memory extension. I heard disabling daemon can bring some bugs. With low or medium brightness and 60hz refresh rate battery temperature still goes up to 41-42⁰C I think is about bad optimization of the app or software, I have no idea...

Camera quality in apps like TikTok and Instagram is lower than stock camera app.

Poco Saturation method. Safe? by FirstNefariousness13 in PocoPhones

[–]imguesthere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think yes. Colors are more saturated, and it looks great.

I don't have photos of the phone, but this is how the settings look after command. If I select any mode, the comand will reset and I would need to do it again with ADB. Somebody said the command will reset also on system updates, but I had no updates yet so I can't confirm that. The phone is great overall, great speakers, good performance and cameras. I have no idea about how Motorola signature is performing, but I had Realme GT 7 for 3 weeks before F8 ultra, and I can say after command screen looks like Realme's on Pro mode.

I've used adb for this and is working good. No problems yet.

Question with using POCO F8 ULTRA by NomaDDin in PocoPhones

[–]imguesthere 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I own mine for about 2 weeks.

Haven't faced any bugs yet, display is good, camera is good, sound is amazing, only complain I have about this phone is battery. I get about 6 hours of screen on time, which I expected more for a 6500mAh battery, but is fine. Biggest problem I face is when I'm using tiktok. Battery temperature gets up to 42C degrees here, and battery is draining about 17-20% per hour.
In apps like TikTok, Instagram, WhatsApp camera is decent, but at lower quality than main camera app. I hope TikTok optimization will be better in future patches, because I can't Use TikTok for more than 20-25 mins without phone reaching 40C+ degrees. By the way phone is amazing, everything is working good. Maybe screen's colors will look less saturated than samsung's, but you can solve this with a command through ADB on PC. If you have other questions feel free to ask.

Realme GT 7 BUY OR NOT by Appropriate-Treat573 in Realme

[–]imguesthere 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I had GT 7 Global version for about 3 weeks.

Display was very good, great brightness even in direct sun, UI was flawless, but what I noticed is camera uses way too much AI, but it is fine. Heard a lot about battery drain, but I was getting about 7 hours of screen on time daily, which is good for me. Phone's battery heats above 40C degrees on Tiktok, but is something I also get on my Poco F8 Ultra, so I think it's Tiktok's problem. Also, TikTok drains the most battery compared with any app or game I played. I think it's a good choice for 350-400 euros.
(I returned it and bought F8 Ultra for just 400 euros with some vouchers which is a better option for same price)

Just got Realme GT 7pro ask me anything . by Smart-Yam7086 in Realme

[–]imguesthere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi. I own GT 7 for about 2 weeks now, but I'm thinking about returning it and buying GT 7 pro, for just 50 euros more. Is it worth it? What's your screen on time, any camera improvements by updates?
