My battery died or maybe the charging slot on the motherboard???, where to buy a replacement battery that is of good quality, I looked on Amazon and a lot of people complain that they are all first-class garbage that immediately show the incorrect status or drain quickly. It's a shame to throw away the phone because it is still good and preserved as new. Please give me a recommendation and has anyone replaced the battery or USB C slot.

5 years, still a great phone, fast as first day purchase, the all screen is a pleasure to watch, the phone fit good to one hand despite quite large, motorized front facing camera still working, changed battery once, not going to trade this phone, this is one of the last all screen smartphone.

MladenJ, 13 Jan 2025Please describe how and with what you installed Android 14 into your phone, thank you.There is bunch of custom roms that are based on Android 14 (and even 15).
Just days ago unlocked bootloader, flashed twrp, formatted, flashed crDroid 11 (Android 15), later Parandoid Android (Android 14). I think I will revert back to crDroid. All works. You can find detailed step by step tutorials on XDA forums.
Note: Unlocking bootloader will definetely void your warranty (if still have one) and can cause issues with banking apps (banking apps may refuse to work) without extra work (Magisk modules).

I have a Poco for almost 4 years and everything is OK except the battery which is at 60% according to AccuBattery which is visible by the fast discharge even when I am not using the phone. My question now is whether it is worth buying new battery for 20 euros but I read that all these replacement batteries do not have 100% capacity and that they are bad and then also important is whether the phone will look normal when put back together because the back cover is glued on.

I have a Poco M2 Pro and looking for upgrade.
Poco F2 Pro is the only phone I feel like having most of M2 Pro has and additionally 5g. If this phone is relaunched now (with or without improvements) I would be very happy to have this phone (same price only)

I just bought this off amazon in a very good condition for 94 euro, I'll let you know guys if it's worth it in 2024, but honestly the CPU is great even today, especially at that price

I have had the F2 Pro forom launch and it still is a rock solid phone, but the battery is giving up. It's only noticeable on lower percentage and at 5% the device could just shut down and some days hold up till 1% very persistently.
Another issue has been that the screen has a slight green tint at the bottom 3rd of the phone, but is noticeable only in dark.
Another issue is the last security patch os from Jan 23.
But meh. Could just order a new battery and "upgrade parts" to the camera and keep going. Yes Redmi K30 Zoom's camera setup should fit in place like a lego (F2's 8/256 variant)

After 4 years, my Poco is completely OK as a second phone, because since last year I have a Xiaomi 13 T pro 12/512 gb which is a beast, POCO has a problem with the app battery. shows 62% health with original charger 30W and cable max. charges it up to 8 W or with any stronger charger than the 13 T pro of 120 W, it seems to me that the problem is not only in the battery but also in the usb port on the motherboard because people had problems with that as soon as this phone came out.

Last good Poco phone in terms of software. I really miss MIUI 11 and 12(.5). No notch or punch hole, 3.5mm, flagship chipset, 1% throttling at stresstests, long battery life, just 420€.
MIUI 13 and especially 14 one function after the other got taken out, and for every 2 they took out, only 1 came back (often not working at all).
Remember the good old game center app with cpu/gpu usage overlay? Well, now we don't have that anymore, and we're left with a misleading FPS booster that says 120 24/7, even in 60 fps locked games and framerates below 30.
Why did they think that was a good idea? Take away something useful, and replace it with something that didn't work - and hasn't worked for 3 years going.
The GPU settings in the game app now doesn't even work in any games, it's whatever you put there.
I bought the X6 Pro. Not even 3rd party apps can measure GPU usage, it just says "--" or 0% (ADB Scene). Even the CPU gets read wrong when it clocks down, and 150-200% under stress tests.
The X6 Pro will be my 2nd and last Poco phone. Without (correct) software you have nothing. If 3rd party FOSS can't even help, I'll buy anything else.

Even 4 years later, it still holds the crown for being an absolute masterpiece. For it shall rest in the top 5 of all Xiaomi phones, forever.

I had have been using many phones in life, but, this Poco F2 Pro has been erased all the history of previously phones from my life .. 10/10 Marks for its Specs, Screen Resolution, Speed, Camera and Many More.
