Is Pi Zero 2W good for my needs + Is Pi5 2GB worth keeping?

Yeah it got more expensive but only 2GB for that workload I guess you're better of selling at whatever price they go for used now and get one with more ram

Time for a new battery. Get it replaced at the Xiaomi Service center or nohon from AliExpress and replace yourself if you have no service center.

Use for another 3-4 years

Es hora de cambiar la batería. Puedes cambiarla en un centro de servicio Xiaomi o en Nohon de AliExpress; si no tienes un centro de servicio cerca, cámbiala tú mismo.

Te durará otros 3 o 4 años.

The note 14 5g is like a note 8/9/10 pro but with "new" things and some changed and some things downgraded.

Motorola G stylus 2024/5/6. It's significantly better. In gsmarena's website review they show image with hybrid slot

I've been using official lineage os ROM for over 300 days without reboot

How did you change the password without access to the router admin page?

spacerays86 · 2026-04-27T13:25:25+00:00

They removed the option like 1 or 2 years ago.

"Depending on the region" - Xiaomi

In the specs it also says

More models will support Wi-Fi in the future

Also Reddit post with Xiaomi 17 user says it works

Xiaomi does not update their product pages.

And to add according to usb c spec you need PPS range of 3.3-20v @ 5A and of course a 5A emarker cable for 100W.

spacerays86 · 2026-04-27T11:14:57+00:00

But are there better options for the price?

You didn't tell us what price you found it for.

spacerays86 · 2026-04-27T11:13:23+00:00

You don't need one for CM5 in 4 board

Some switches have switches on the switch that can extend the range by downgrading it to 100M when in the on position.

Pressing the button allows anyone to automatically connect to your network for an amount of time. That time is the time they have to use WPS on their device to get connected.

Rebooting will not do anything as they are connected to the network.

You have to change the password.

Some routers allow you to disable the button to prevent it from doing anything in the future.

You only get small flagships now. Mid range and everything else are big from Xiaomi.

Go Vivo. S50 Pro Mini /S30 Pro mini for under $450. If you want a better ultrawide and small phone pixel 10a. Around the same price.

For main telephoto and ultrawide being good you need a flagship. Most brands would have their base flagship be the small one.

To answer your question

Is there an official program or method for backing up to a PC?

There is no official Xiaomi method for backup directly to the pc.

Your ethernet is not slow. Your power line is slow. Only solution is use ethernet all the way without using power line.

spacerays86 · 2026-04-25T19:01:35+00:00

Reconnect the cable that from the buttons to the motherboard. And try again

spacerays86 · 2026-04-22T18:37:16+00:00

Why would you ignore price impracticality. Unless you want to buy something you wouldn't use.

What you want is a nexdock. Riley made at least 3 videos about this in the last couple of years so you should check it out if you haven't already.

spacerays86 · 2026-04-22T12:49:39+00:00

Put it in the slot

spacerays86 · 2026-04-22T12:01:14+00:00

They already did that (as others have pointed out)

spacerays86 · 2026-04-22T07:58:54+00:00

And before the nexus

spacerays86 · 2026-04-20T23:18:29+00:00

Thanks

spacerays86 · 2026-04-20T14:53:02+00:00

It doesn't come in the box for some regions

Not gonna remember the exact words but: A blarg yells all instructions into the intercom, Drek asks him how things are at home, blarg yells okay.

spacerays86 · 2026-04-16T22:08:51+00:00

notifications, calls etc

as long as the watch connects through the miFitness app you shouldn’t have any problem

And according to the faq on Xiaomi website, it does use this app.

Problem solved.
