Q : Is there vibration in the Redmi note 4 ? - Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers

I have bought recently a brand new phone and I decided to buy this device, overall it is amazing. But, I have noticed there are setting for setting vibration to work on calls or alarms but it sims it doesn't work. So my question is, does this device has vibration at all, or I have got an good working device with a broken vibration ?

There's definitely vibration so something is up. Have you determined if you are running a vendor/reseller ROM as they can sometimes be dodgy and break things. If you're unsure post a screen shot of your about screen in settings.

Hmm looks to be official. Did it come with that ROM installed, have you had any official OTA updates?

Yes I had one update when I had just started using the device....

There is a patch fot that, you need just to hit your phone a few times with a hammer, and the small motor will start to spin, and that's it. Sorry man, maybe the motor stuck or something. Try hiting your phone just a little in the back, just to make some kind of vibration for it, maybe the it will start to work. Just don't break your phone of course.

Yep, that will surely work. The vibration in my phone stopped after a minor drop (from about a 10 inch high surface onto a carpeted floor). Everything else was working fine. I tried tweaking the settings, ran a CIT mode test and even did a hard reset, but none of them worked. Since the MI flagship service center near me had bad reviews, I decided I had nothing to lose if I tried to get the thing working in the same way as I lost it; so I dropped it onto the floor (with a rug on top) from about 6 inches high. After 3 tries, my phone is working like nothing happened

[Q] Does it have a standard notification light?

I am really interested in knowing if the device will have a led for notification or only the side blinking edge foe some contacts.
I have the same question. Do we have the notification LED at all?? That is the most useful feature in Android phones.
yes...
I think I saw it on one of those hands on video.
Yes it does.

S6 edge sometimes miss it but it can display on going notifications on its your preferred edge either left side or right side. The black and white notifying will not effect to your battery life.

The newer Moto phones like Moto X and Droid Turbo do not have a notification light. They use "active display" that the whole screen lights up every 30 seconds or so if you have notifications. I prefer the old fashioned notification light myself.
I'm using a galaxy s2 right now with no notification led.
Glad s6 edge has it!

Z2 - Flickering display

Bought a used Xperia Z2 today. Having owned 2 in the past, it was very stupid of me not to check it throughly, anyway I paid the guy and went home.
It was on 5.1.1, so as I was setting it up, I lowered the brightness a bit, and immediately the bottom of the screen started flickering, it also showed weird multi colored lines and it only happens when the phone is NOT on full brightness.
Even if I adjust the brightness slightly less than full, it starts flickering again.
This is the phone at full brightness.

These two are less than full brightness.
What could be the problem and how would one go about it?
P.S: I texted the seller and he advised a software upgrade. So I flashed the 6.0.1 FTF and it's still happening.
Any replies will be appreciated.

Buyer also idiot.
Damn.
He isn't being helpful and told me to pi** off in a very kind way.
Guess I'll have to dump this and lose money on it.
Thanks for replying.

Update: He has the cheek to reply after being rude and says, it's a software problem. Then when I told him I flashed a new FTF and did a factory reset, he says have it checked out by a phone repair guy.
Then he turns his phone off. :/

Probably he looking for long time to find very stupid guy (looser) to sell the phone.

But true tbh. His advert was posted on 2nd May, so clearly he wasn't getting better offers.
Anyway, guess I'll go one of those weekends to sell it off.

I tried my last resort thing.
Opened up the phone, took it apart, put everything back together and the problem went away mostly, but it's still there sometimes.
Guess I'll actually have to dump the phone then.

Le Max 2 Screen Noise

Hi, I have had my Le Max 2 for well over a year and it has been working fine. Tonight exactly one half(right side vertically) has a pink/green noise flicker on and off all the time. I've attached an image but of what is happening, although its the whole right side now and not just 3/4 of it. Also the previous screen I am browsing sometimes stays on the right side too.
Can anyone help with what it could be?
Cheers for your help

You need to remove the screen. Make the screen contact correct. Improve the badge. Secure with screws. Everything will be fine.
I have same problem, it shows up for 100ms, then it's gone. I have it appearing only while watching videos, never on normal use. With modem/firmware from 16s to 28s I always have this kind of glitch appear from top to bottom, on modem 30s it looks exactly like on yours 3/4 th of screen. Looks like software problem to me. I still have no solution for it
Hi, Im the original poster. My le max still does this every now and again but at the moment its fine. Mine is definitely to do with hardware. I believe its a loose ribbon. It sometimes starts if i drop my phone and i can also stop it from happening if i bang the phone upside down a couple of times.
You can try to squeeze phone just below sim slot, ribbon is located there about 1cm to the right from the left border of the screen. In my case I'm 100% sure, my problem is software related, since firmware changes glitch behavior. Unless firmware changes way how video chip communicates with the screen...
Sometimes 1 second, but I'm seeing it 1 or 2 times a week.
Rom doesn't notice

Odd screen discoloration

Hello!
I recently purchased an Honor 10 and noticed that it had a weird screen-issue that was only noticable while displaying certain pictures. The screen would turn a bright shade of pink and green while swiping between images in the gallery before rendering them in their correct colours. I also noticed that when I took screenshots they would come out with really washed out colours. I sent the phone back and ordered a new one from the same retailer since they're the only ones who stock the 128gb model in my country, and when the new unit arrived earlier today I found out it has the exact same issue. I called support to make sure that they didn't just send me back the same unit and they're adamant that it isn't and that the IMEI numbers are different. Has anyone else encountered this issue or am I really unlucky to get it twice in a row? I tried doing factory resets on both phones but the issue remains.

Hello! Thank you for replying! Mine was set to vivid, so I changed it. Really odd thing though is that I sent the second phone I had issues with back yesterday and settled for another retailer with the 64gb model, and today when it arrived I find that it has the exact same issue! Really not sure whether I'm doing something wrong or if I'm astronomically unlucky since that's 3 in a row now. At first I thought the images that get the discolouration issues might be corrupted or something like that, but I've downloaded others from google and gotten the same result anyway. Every time I take a screenshot the result comes out with less colours as well, so if I do it multiple times I get multiple copies of the same image with a gradient effect. I really love the phone other than these issues, so it's a bit distressing.
Seems impossible.
You get this problem since before you install any app?
Maybe the lighting in your house gives a weird effect on the materials used in this phone.
3rd one same problem is crazy.

Yep, no apps installed. I skipped the sync and wifi-connection and everything when I first started it so I could see if it worked properly. I don't think it has anything to do with the lightning in my house, I did a screen recording to show the issue so I could send it to Huawei support and ask about it, and you can tell even on my PC screen that the discoloration is very evident and the screenshot issue as well. That would indicate that it's a software issue, wouldn't it? I tried to attach the recording to my OP but I can't post links yet since my account is new. Not sure if I want to risk ordering another one, I will wait for their support to reply to me and see what they say!
Probably hardware problem.
I would return it and buy another one from a different source.
Probably a lot of bad batches got sent out?

Question Asus Zenfone 8 Flip battery sucks

I am using my new Asus Zenfone 8 Flip the second day. I am disappointed. I use it normally as all my other phones, a bit of videos, a bit of photos, browsing youtube. Half a day battery is flat. The screen was 60 Hz. Battery settings: Optical/Dynamic. Double checked if there is any draining app - nothing found.
All my other phones would work at least three-four times longer (and I had very good phones!). I am disappointed. It is not worth the price.
Battery is fine for me, not worse than op7 before. Although I charge only up to 90%.
But in total, I'm not that happy either - the fingerprint sensor kills it off for me.

After using Xiaomi Mi Max 1, then Mi Max 2 and Mi Max 3 with their unkillable batteries that can work 2 or even 3 days in a row, I wonder how even people pay that money for phones that hardly survive by the end of the day.
Fingerprint sensor sucks too. Indeed.
Has anyone noticed that if you listen music from Spotify or youtube in background with an adapter and you open a game (not an app, only game) the music quality Will lower extremely? It Is really annoying
it shouldn't... powerusage seems quite average.

Why don't you just take a Bugreport and upload it here: https://bathist.ef.lc/
Then you would know why battery life sucks

You may press a bit when setup but to unlock you just need to put/touch a little and sensor will scan your fingertips. Easy to unlock

Cannot Check again, I swapped back to op7.
Now, half a year later I am on op9pro ;-)
I just got the 8 Flip and I was also expecting it could last over 24h on my non gaming use.
I installed GSam, Naptime and Greenify to try to save some battery, but I'm still struggling to save battery.
Disable 5G? Just got the phone. first thing I did.. I don't give a f... about 5g..
