caunt, hike, our volume has problems with the charging module. In my case, it normally charges. Only when reading within 20-30% of the charge, the phone cuts down to zero. Whether it incorrectly determines the percentage of charging.

In my charge controller died the next day after purchase. I ordered a new board and put it. While working.

Hello everyone, can you tell me where to buy a GSM module on aliekspers, badly catches the connection, thanks

[berzerk233]

Specially registered here to ask)
The essence of the problem: I turn on the mobile Internet, everything works OK, then I turn it off, and when it is turned on again, it stops working, it does not catch the Internet at all, only a restart or on helps. and off Flight mode
Operator Beeline, settings from the operator are all set
I read the whole topic and did not find such a problem for anyone, can anyone know the solution to the problem?

[--ULQUIORRA--]

I read the topic entirely ... Basically, I agree with the flaws of the device, everything is the same for me (it is quickly discharged in the background, a bad camera, a stock call application crashes, sometimes the Internet disappears) The only thing I do not agree about heating is, for example, I played Hartstone and Don't Starve for a long time, the phone didn’t turn into a coal from this. Well, it warms a little bit, but they wrote that they could not hold it right in their hands.
As for the quick consumption of a battery, by the way, well, yes, it consumes quickly in idle time (as it would seem, disabling 4g would help). But on the other hand, when used not so much. I earn money as a courier in the delivery of food, the courier application constantly requests GPS data and eats the battery, but it’s barely enough for 6 hours. Before that, I had Asus with 1600 mah battery, there are 2 and a few hours and that's it. Well, here 3400 and just twice as much.
What is most pleasing in the phone is -4 gig of operatives, and this is for that kind of money (wrote above). Nothing crashes as a result. And 64 internal. And no garbage stuffed into the firmware, only a couple of useful prog-type office.

--ULQUIORRA--, no support, no software, then they just barely install it as root, there are no firmwares, and I really wanted to. Well, in general, as a phone for Internet surfing suits me, but no more. We have already written above that the real price of this phone is 3000 and I agree with them. And yes, it heats up like hell, you play Morrowind for a couple of minutes and you already feel it, it eats up the battery too quickly. I think you can write a lot on this unit, but why)

[--ULQUIORRA--]

Well, about the ruta, it is, I made it right away. No problems, I do not know what kind of "barely."

[jayzie]

--ULQUIORRA--, Well, I also immediately put the root, only I did not flash it on the patched kernel. Through twrp installed magisk. Are you aware that if you do not immediately install the root, this recovery will not run?
It's okay, as I said already, there are no other firmware, there is no one to do porting. Well, to ask something in the topic is useless, if there is a problem, it is unlikely that someone will help
Well at least custom recovery ported to this phone)

[oscar.izhevsk]

Good people, help. In general, the problem is this. Two sims, Beeline and MTS. After the firmware, MTS stopped working. Before that, it was repeatedly stitched, but a new recovery appeared. Simka in places changed Beeline works and MTS does not. More precisely, there is no call, no outgoing or incoming. Only SMS comes, that someone called. But the internet works well and without interruption. All this with MTS. I tried to install another device, everything works and calls there. And in khomtom does not want. What are the assumptions?
