Does both Pocophone and poco f1 variant have screen bleeding issue? - Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers

Hello,
I want to buy pocophone 6/64 version.
Before i buy the product i just want to make sure if there is severe screen bleeding issues in both poco f1 or pocophone (Indian or Chinese version).
both Chinese and Indian unit are available in our local market so i have the option to buy either of this two variant. If the problem is to any specific variant i will prefer the other variant of it.
thank you

Yes both have it. The degree of screen bleed varies from devices to device. There is minimal bleed in most pocophones and it's only apparent when you really try and look for it.

I have the global version and I don't notice it.
EDIT: note that sellers might not accept a refund unless the bleeding is very, very apparent.

Choose the one which has the manufacturing date as September or October. Don't buy the ones manufactured on August.

I just bought from Flipkart no bleeding issue. Manufacturing date is September 2018.

European launch

ZTE UK have mistimed the launch, the Amazon pro-order listing that went up yesterday was the official one even though the countdown only ended today - so there's a one month wait plus 2-3 weeks for delivery! And it's still not listed on ZTE UK's website.
The Quartz Grey should be launched sometime in August and there currently no plan at all for the 6GB / 128GB model.
It's a better phone than the OnePlus 3 but ZTE really need to sort out their marketing and distribution.
http://www.ztedevices.co.uk/zte-axon-7-available-in-europe/
https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01HGBVGPS
http://www.ztedevices.co.uk/smartphones/
I pre-ordered it from Amazon UK and have an estimated delivery date of 1-3 August.
I hope they also release it on Ebay since I have some PayPal money I can't get rid of.
How do you know the release date of the Quartz Grey version ?
Sentable date: 30.07.2016 for the Gold one. But i think there just gonna be the 64GB Version. Anyway, more than in my HTC One M8!
I can not wait any longer. Want it now
All the amazon links for the phone in Europe, except UK, are currently showing as unavailable...The european launch just gets worse and worse.

It seems that all the efforts are now focusing US market and they are forgetting about european market for now.
Some good news guys!! Those who have ordered from the UK amazon seller i sent them an email complaining about the delivery date and got the reply that the ZTE original supplier dispatched from China on 15th July, so we should be getting the phones on time/ ahead of time, hopefully by the end of next week!
Since amazon UK won't ship internationally, will other Europe site do that? Couldn't spot that on amazon sites.
Thinking of software side, there shouldn't be any differences between phones shipped by amazon.fr, .de, ... , or is there?
Presumably they should be the same. The uk listing says it is an eu model

Any idea on how to get the phone in Europe?, pretty much, all the Amazon listing are gone and Amazon UK doesn't ship internationally.
Axon 7 could be only a vapour ware in Europe.
The availability is already uncertain.
The better option is simply ignore Axon 7 go for 1+3 or wait for the next nexus devices.
This was the email i received from the Amazon UK seller for those who are curious:
Dear client,
Thanks for your kindly patience and i just confirmed with our product manager and ZTE original supplier good news that the items has been dispatched from China to UK on 15th July.
Thus we hope all the orders would be dispatched in time /ahead time .
have a nice day

617 is a pretty bad processor, they should put the 652 or 650 at least.

Captured from Samsung Hong Kong Official website:
Latest Statement updated on 17 September 2016​
To protect and reassure our customers who have purchased the Galaxy Note7 in Hong Kong and Macau*, we will be issuing two software updates.
1. Mandatory software update to protect customers with devices which may be affected by the battery issue
A mandatory software update will be issued on 18 September 2016 to the remaining 159 Galaxy Note7 devices* – purchased in Hong Kong and Macau between 26 August and 1 September 2016 – which may be affected by the battery issue.

If the device is subject to the replacement program, the device should be turned off immediately and returned to our customer service centre.
2. Optional software update for Galaxy Note7 devices unaffected by the battery issue
For Galaxy Note7 devices* which are not affected by the battery issue, an optional software update will be issued starting from 19 September 2016 to reassure consumers that these devices do not need to be replaced and can be used with confidence. After updating, the battery icon of these Galaxy Note7 devices will be changed from the current grey colour to green to signify that they are not affected by the battery issue.

Did you buy from an authorized reseller?
Got my N9300 off eBay from never-msrp so I can't tell if the imei checker works, since it gives two answers: unaffected/from unauthorized seller.
Will update later today hoping for the green icon.

Use the the USA Samsung IMEI checker, it is more definitive. Provide SIM1 IMEI.

I saw this one earlier but doubted the contents. It says here that "Besides, the Chinese version SM-N9300 could come with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of internal storage." How I wish this is true.
I have been to this site as well. Not sure though if the variant and connectivity information is accurate. What's the default variant sold in HongKong?
http://techbeasts.com/list-of-samsung-galaxy-note-7-model-numbers/
Official HK version is the SM9300 which is a regular Note 7 with Snapdragon. It has slightly less bands than the 930FD. Check online for the exact list.
I am getting slightly better battery life with this latest firmware. But still get a bit of lag on the Samsung keyboard.
Sent from my SM-N9300 using XDA-Developers mobile app
My battery seems as good as before, but its lagging more unfortunately. Fast scrolling on YouTube or the Play Store is where the lag is the most noticeable.

Are they releasing the V30 in Europe?

Haven't seen any definitive confirmation of this? All I've seen is regarding the South Korean launch.
My guess is yes. In fact, I hear it will be released in the UK (exclusive to one carrier) and Germany. No sure about other countries. But since it was unveiled in Barcelona, I take that as a good sign that it will be released there.
No need to guess, there have been definite statements.
LG's UK site is showing that the UK will get the Blue and Silver colour options. Price and release date TBC.
Carphone Warehouse have confirmed to have it.

Oh, come on. OnePlus can't even figure how to get to 1440p AMOLED or Qi wireless charging.
When OnePlus decided to make a real top tier phone let me know. ZTE with their 2016 Axon 7 and upcoming 2017Axon 9 is what OnePlus pretends to be, a real contender.
Everyone knows 2017 is the Year of the Zero Bezel Phone. Even Apple knows that! And OnePlus released an iterative update when they needed something more radical. Something like the LG G6, Samsung Galaxy S 8/8+, LG V30, Samsung Note 8.
Even Apple is going zero bezel, more than 1080p with AMOLED, and adding Qi wireless charging!
ZTE will be announcing something similar in October, but with stereo speakers. And probably will be budget priced like the ZTE AXON 7.
The LG V30 will probably be my next phone, and I've already bought cases for it. But I am curious about the ZTE AXON 9...
OnePlus could have done the same thing, but they blew it. Same old same old. They easily could have released a zero bezel, 1440p AMOLED phone to beat Apple iPhone 8 or X, or whatever they're calling it. They easily could have added Qi wireless charging. Instead they released 5.5" 1080p slab with huge bezels that looks like last year's iPhone 7.

Except the camera might not work as good as stock. At least this is the case with Samsung phones and LOS... And that would be a real shame because so far it looks like v30 has a superb camera for movie clips and that's the only reason I consider buying v30.

yeah!
i was at IFA this year and i held it in my hands and it was f***ing awesome. i wanted to buy it since end of august.
in the meantime i smashed my sgs7e to pieces and i need a new phone even more. and i also wanted to wait for the new pixel to be presented and also looked at the op5/T also maybe the huawei mate 10
but in my opinion the v30 has the most complete package. in the pixel 2 you dont get dual cams no wireless charging and no headphone jack.
i think only dual front facing speakers and the pure vanilla android software do not justify the price.

For me the more important thing are dimension and fingerprint position, in v30 these are perfect, S8+ is way to big and the fingerprint is in a weird position, but it costs 250 Euros less :silly:

Release date UK?

Hey guys!
Massively interested in this phone. My HTC U11 broke just recently. The back and front smashed and my insurance company said they couldn't fix it so sent me the cash. That's when I did some research and heard about the Pocophone F1 which looks amazing! The only thing is it isn't easy not having a phone when I need to work....
Is there any chance a release date for Europe or the UK in particular will be announced soon? Any rumours flying about? I'm really trying hard to hold out for this phone!

Thanks for the info BassBounce. That's good to know. The only issue I have with buying from one of these sites is whether they are putting a mark up on the price of the phone? I wonder if when it is officially released will it be cheaper than on these sites? Also, I can't seem to find the Armoured version of the Poco F1 anywhere to buy in the UK. I'd really like the Armoured version since I seem to be pretty unlucky when it comes to braking phones....

Apparently the one from Appliances Direct doesn't have a charger with it at all!

Root & atleast flashing GSI is possible in this device?

This is really a shame. No root no custom rom for a top-class phone
Will be trying my luck to get one through flipkart flash sales this week. Else I will settle for Poco X3.
I couldn't resist the flipkart deal. I have always rooted my devices the very next day of buying. Xiaomi Mi3 > Nexuz 6P > Samsung S7> Oneplus 3 > Poco F1.
Probably first time gonna get a flagship phone with no custom rom support :/
Hope this can be rooted and I can flash gsi. Can someone confirm, if this is possible?

In my pin code phone went out of stock within 2-3 seconds
I managed to order LGg8x from flipkart. I have to use like an iphone then.
Me too. I booked it as an upgrade for my poco F1. Poco is still running as good as day one but I just couldn't resist the deal and bought g8x.
The only concern i have about the phone is the developer community support.
Poco has such good developer support, and for g8x it's quite the opposite. Hope that enough units were sold in this sale to spark some community support.
I too ordered bcoz of the good specification ,I'm from 1+6t it has a huge threads and forums ,I rooted my 1+6t the day when the phone delivered, even 1+ support warranty after bootloader unlock but lg not

My poco f1 was good, but had battery bulge. sold it and got this. i will miss custom ROMs for sure. but irresistible offer
I too bought one from Flipkart. Hope we get community support. Even if we get support for GSI installation, its good.
Is the LM-G850UM out of luck for root? Are any developments being made. I'm considering getting a new phone because not having root is really bothering me. This phone is wonderful but no root is quite the deal breaker..
During the sale 2 models are sold in india, lucky few got the ones manufactured in india which had access to fastboot and most of the others got the phones which are manufactured in vietnam, and these dont even have access ro fastboot menu, sadly i got the vietnam one, also for people who have access to fastboot mode, lg isnt providing the key to unlock the bootloader, so possibly no root or custom rom development for this device, i hope lg will open these devices once their software release cycle is completed that is after andoid 11.
I have previously used k20 pro, and on the first day i removed miui and installed PA its just too good.
My lg g8x has issues with keyboard,closes while typing so installed google keyboard, also installed expanded view, which uses both screens as one during browsing, amd had some other issues such as random shurdowns, dont know why thats happening...

The only concern i have about the phone is the developer community support.
Poco has such good developer support, and for g8x it's quite the opposite. Hope that enough units were sold in this sale to spark some community support.

Does LG has a community/Forum for its users? I am unable to find any
So how is it with this phone?
Is it possible to unlock the bootloader on LG G8X ThinQ Dual SIM EU Version?
Have any of you done this?
There is only G8s at https://developer.lge.com/resource/mobile/RetrieveBootloader.dev.
G8X is not listed.
