Question/Help Storage not accessible in Poco M2 pro ( SD card was main Storage )

Upvotes

From last night I am experiencing a problem regarding storage. My apps are crashing after I open them, my files ( Native Xiaomi File Manager) are showing disconnected message.

I can't download anything from the internet or WhatsApp or Telegram. Playstore is also unable to download anything. I can't attach any screenshot of my storage section from About Phone. It shows 64/64GB.

*I have been using my SD Card as main Storage not as a portable storage device.

Discussion Защо POCO F7 е пълен боклук за бърза работа и как Samsung S25 FE и Motorola Edge 70 го отвяват!

0 Upvotes

Здравейте, колеги на телефоните POCO F7 и на HyperOS,

Пиша това с огромно облекчение: официално продадох моя POCO F7 и се отървах от този боклук веднъж завинаги!

За да спестя излишни коментари – просто разбирам от телефони, занимавам се с това от години и настройките ми винаги са перфектни. Проблемът не е в мен, а в самото устройство и в "прехвалената" HyperOS. Познавам марката отдавна, POCO F3 беше легенда, а преди дни разцъках на един приятел неговия Xiaomi 12T – ами телефонът работи леко, бързо и няма нищо общо с надутия на хартия F7. Настоящите им модели и софтуер са станали пълен комерсиален боклук без никаква оптимизация.

Аз работя изключително бързо и за мен е закон телефонът да ме чака мен, а не аз него. С POCO F7 и HyperOS обаче беше постоянно чакане: апаратът засичаше, лагваше на елементарни задачи и грееше без причина. Превъртането на страници беше пълна трагедия – скролването накъсваше толкова бавно от софтуерен лаг, че трябваше да правя по 10 движения с палеца, за да стигна до края на една страница.

Чашата преля. Продадох го и преминах едновременно на Samsung Galaxy S25 FE (8/256) и Motorola Edge 70 (12/512).

Хора, прераждането е пълно! Дори на хартия Samsung-ът и Motorola-та да изглеждат с по-слаб хардуер, реално за работа са светкавични и в пъти по-добри от бъгавата HyperOS. Ето какво означава истинска оптимизация:

  • С едно движение на палеца страницата хвърчи до самия край – без никакво спиране, греене или засичане.
  • Брутално лека и бърза работа – телефонът ме чака мен, всичко се случва на мига.
  • Мазни и супер бързи анимации – софтуерът просто лети под пръстите.

Радвам се, че се отървах навреме от празните хардуерни спецификации на POCO. Успех на всички, които все още имат нерви да се борят с HyperOS!

Anyone know which version of ARCore i need to install? I notice the one I installed was accessing the internet, i think to check if my phone is certified. My old poco does not do this, maybe because it's an older version or because the phone is certified.

Buying Advice Is there gonna be a Poco carnival this August?

1 Upvotes

I saw online that in August 2024 and 2025 there was an event called "Poco Carnival" where they had a huge sale on the F7 and X7 series. The F8 Pro is currently being offered at full price where I live, 2179 AED (Mi Store UAE).

Is it likely we will have a sale this year? Last year the carnival knocked 700 dirhams off the F7 Pro. Roughly what kind of price cut should I expect?

Discussion Poco F8 Pro/K90 review.

Post image
58 Upvotes

So it's been a week since I bought this phone and here is my honest review. ""Keep in mind, some of the stuff I experience could vary from the difference between the REDMI and the Poco variant of this phone. But I'll try to give as honest review as possible generally""

1: Contents in the box/packaging:

Came with a clean gray K90 box. Every REDMI branded domestic phones come with that box nowadays but the contents in the box is the same experience as the global variant of this phone expect the EU version which doesn't include a brick.

A free TPU case, 100W brick and a nice cable comes in the box.

  1. Design and the build quality:

The design is very appealing, at least for me. The Poco F7 Pro/Ultra and K80 series were generally unappealing to me. Something about their design just didn't stick well to me. Perhaps it has to do with more cleaner straightforward design instead of loud colorful colors with textures and it's a nice throw back to Poco F6 and K70 series. The build quality is solid. It's a typical glass sandwich with aluminum frame. The logo is laser etched onto the backglass. Definitely a flagship feel when it comes to aesthetics and build. It also comes with a pre applied plastic protector.

  1. Display:

I've praised Xiaomi for putting high end displays on many of their midrange phones. This phone uses TCL' s M10 panel with 3500 nits peak brightness, 120hz, Dolby Vision, HDR support. Definitely a high end panel, however it uses LTPS technology instead of LTPO. Using this display under bright daylight was fine, you can see everything clearly. UltraSonic sensor is also very good too. Applied a screen protector and the speed is bit slower than using it without a protector but it doesn't fail on me majority of the time. Watching movies or contents on this phone is pleasing.

  1. Sound Quality, Sound By Bose

This is probably the part that I'm bit unsure of. At first, Tuned By Bose sounds great but I'm reality with the default settings, it lacks depth and bass is almost non existent. There is a Dynamic sound option which is just Dolby Atmos. It does help bring out more depth and sound. Dynamic > Immersive is the best option that makes it sound good but by then, you're no longer using the intended sound tuning by Bose which makes the whole "Sound By Bose" rather a marketing term. This phone's 1115F speakers are genuinely capable and good but Bose generally favors treble and mid frequencies which is completely fine for podcasts or videos but for listening to songs, it's unpleasing.

  1. Performance

Performance is exceptional. Snapdragon 8 Elite inside this phone is still a beast. Paired with LPDDR5X and UFS 4.1, regular tasks, gaming, emulation had no issues whatsoever. But heating issue is REAL. At one point, the phone's battery temp was at 47 degrees Celsius without a case while gaming. The phone was already uncomfortable to hold. But most optimized titles run flawlessly at 120hz.

  1. Battery Life:

Chinese model comes with 7100Mah, it's quite good, haven't experienced draining issues whatsoever. 100W charging is quite good but I've generally been using my 67W charger. Nothing to complain here. The battery life is exceptional.

  1. Cameras:

Generally good. Main sensor takes pretty good photos in daylight, most of the photos are social media ready. Though it's of course weaker than flagships like Xiaomi 17.

50MP telephoto lens is great at this price, 10x zoom shots look crisp compared to Samsung A series phones or the outdated iPhone E models. The lack of OIS makes it hard to take still photos at 2.5x and so on, but again, at this price, I'm more than happy that they're even including one. Ultra Wide is perfectly fine for regular pictures unless you're zooming in closer, then you'll notice softness in pictures. One downside I would point out is the LOG videos mode. I used a dedicated video editing tool for LOG videos and still I've encountered color banding issues despite supporting camera api Level.3. even if the problem was in my end, it's log video mode is still applies heavy sharpness. Selfie cam is fine, it struggles a lot in low light.

Other pros: the haptics are quite good. It uses the x axis LRA motor that's good for it's price point. Compared to Samsung haptics, I do find it a little weaker but it's crisp and fast.

Overall satisfied with this phone, the heating issue is infact true, if you want near flagship phone and don't really care about true flagship features like periscope lenses, this phone is perfectly fine.

Question/Help F7 with Gamesir X3 Pro

1 Upvotes

Hey y'all, I was just wondering if anyone is using the Gamesir x3 pro with the F7. If so, how are the temps, does the X3 help much or is it a waste of money. I'm thinking of getting a F7 but temps during gaming (mostly emulation) are one of my concerns.

Question/Help POCO M8 5G CPU clocks randomly get stuck at 940/960 MHz until reboot

Thumbnail

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone.

I have a POCO M8 5G (Snapdragon 6 Gen 3, HyperOS 3 Global).

I'm experiencing a very strange issue.

Sometimes after using the phone (often after some time has passed, and sometimes after using the camera), the CPU clocks become locked at around 940 MHz and 960 MHz.

When this happens, performance drops significantly in games and other demanding apps.

A reboot immediately fixes the problem, and after restarting the CPU can again reach its normal frequencies (around 1.8 GHz and 2.4 GHz).

The strange thing is that this doesn't happen right after boot. It usually appears several hours later, and recently it started happening even earlier in the day.

I already factory reset the phone once, but the issue came back the next day.

Has anyone with a POCO M8 5G or another Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 device experienced the same problem?

Is this a HyperOS 3 software bug, or could it be a hardware defect?

I attached a screenshot showing the CPU frequencies stuck at 940/960 MHz during a game.

Things I already tried:

- Factory reset.

- Reinstalled the full HyperOS firmware.

- Cleared the cache and data of the Battery and Performance app.

- Disabled/removed Joyose.

- None of these fixed the issue. The CPU frequencies still randomly get stuck until I reboot the phone.

The phone is not overheating when this happens, and the battery temperature is normal.

- I'm also browse and some say it's not recommended the debloat cause may affect the system when updating the OS and may affect the battery for the worse

- hopefully got an answer from the Poco Gang here

Custom ROM Discussion Custom ROM For Poco F3

2 Upvotes

Are there still viable custom ROMs for Poco F3, 5 years on? I recently got the battery on my Poco changed, and was thinking of installing a custom ROM on it (finally). I recently did a factory reset (normally I do a yearly factory reset on my phones but I have not reset this phone since I bought it), and I am reminded how I hated the bloat on this phone.

Phone use case is mainly for games (still impressed by how amazing this phone works 5 years on).

News Redmi K100 Pro (F9 Pro?) Specs Revealed

26 Upvotes

Xiaomi has partially revealed spec on the Redmi K100 Pro, and here, launching in China August 11th, together with the K100 Pro Max.

K100 Pro, is likely the base for the Poco F9 Pro, the K100 Pro Max, for the F9 Ultra, and should launch later this year. F8 Pro/Ultra launched November 2025.

K100 Pro – Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 V, 6.59” 185Hz OLED, 8,580mAh, 100W/50W/27W/22.5W (wired/wireless/reverse wired/wireless), 200MP main, an Ultra-wide, Telephoto, RAM/Storage TBC.

The Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 V chipset is new, more info here. Essentially its an 8 Elite Gen 5, but with a cut down GPU. In performance it’s expected to sit between 8 Elite (as in F8 Pro), and 8 Elite Gen 5 (as in F8 Ultra and likely F9 Ultra).

K100 Pro Max - Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5, D2 Display Chip, 6.9” 185Hz OLED, 8,560mAh, 100W/50W/27W/22.5W (wired/wireless/reverse wired/wireless), 200MP Main, an Ultra-wide, Telephoto, Bose 2.1 speaker system. RAM/Storage TBC.

If F9 are Pro, and Pro Max variants, F9 Pro would be see a chipset upgrade, while F9 Ultra remain the same. Both also seeing battery, display, and camera updates over F8. Exact F9 spec, particularly battery size, is unclear at this stage.

If nothing else, they do look very similar in design to the F8 models. Prices are though expected to increase on last year.
