Thanks just fixed my phone. Wouldn't show charging 🔋 indicator stuck at 52% loose battery connection. I would mention in video when opening to be careful of finger print ribbon which could get cut with a plastic prying opening tool. Just below camera on left side!
Hello sir what did you do? My poco x4 gt also stuck at 52% does not charge nor discharge but it is working. Should i just disconnect and reconnect my battery???
Hi bro i have this phone and the headphone jack is kinda getting damage by daily usage so would it be possible to swap the old 3.5mm jack with a new 3.5mm jack ??? If not what can i do to fix the headphone jack ""please reply ""😢
I think Poco made some claims that they increased the cooling solution of this phone, but the vapor chamber seems more or less identical in size to the one in the x3 GT. No wonder this phone doesnt really perform well in terms of thermals, the D8100 is more or less left thermally unsupported.
The vapor chamber is longer in length, however the X3 GT looked to have more thermal paste in between the frame and the copper heat transfer tape on the back of the board. The X4 GT has a good amount of thermal paste underneath the copper tape between the processor and the copper film, but not so much between the film and the frame.
@@adrianjuliano9744 Unless you need the headphone jack, I think the F3 is still a better deal overall, especially if you can still find one on sale. The F3 has the worse camera of the two, but you can install GCAM mod to get better processing for your photos(since the X4 gt has a mediatek chip, gcam will likely not work).
@@somayough ohh thx i watched decent comparison of both two phones and the F3 seems to have better optimisation but its limited in physical stores i might find online thanks ❤️
So my phone dropped a lot and the screen is falling out from the front... I wanna a take it to repairs but I wanna know something about it first since spare parts is Abit limited ig.. in here. ... As of now I have a rubber band to keep it together to make sure I'm not pulling a cable from somewhere in there
can i ask clarifications? is its frame made of plastic or aluminum? cuz currently i own poco x3 nfc for almost 3 yrs i guess?,and your teardown video convinced me to buy this one for a plastic back, aluminum frame and gorilla glass front is really my gold standard of build combination, my poco x3 had survived a lot of drops, rolls, bents and many more torture out there without a case, it's such a strong phone not even a scratch on screen or major dents on edges,, and im edging on this poco x4 gt for my upgrade though
Hello, my phone is redmi note 11t pro and i dont know how the phone frame creaks opposite the power button when gently pressed. What happen if i glued it outside with B-700, will it reduce creaks when pressed?
Hye, thanks for the video. Wanted to ask a weird question. Is it possible to mod the sim reader slot so that it can also read sd card? i can put any third party sim tray which has support for sd card. I love this phone but sadly no sd card slot.
Hi, no I don't think it would work. Would not only require additional solder points on the board but additional resistors and such to detect and read, and also software mods I would assume.
Hi. It is a li-po. The way they label the batteries, if its a li-po then its written lithium ion polymer, if its a li-ion then it will just said lithium ion. But either way the lithium ion potion is always labeled on the batteries.
Since the charging board is removable, do you think it is possible to make a diy upgrade from usb 2.0 to usb 3.2? I often plug my Poco X4 GT into my PC, and the transfer speeds are slow, not to mention hdmi adapters not working. I've heard that the chipset would limit the speeds, but since the entire sub board is removable, could this be circumvented?
I'm not sure since I'm not an expert in electrical engineering but I would assume just changing the port alone would not work since there are controller chips regulating it as well either on the sub board itself or the main board.
Good afternoon, can you give me an answer to the question why does the back cover creak in this phone? On the other hand, where there are no volume buttons and a print, if you move the edge of the case, it will creak, what is this?
Hello, Thanks for the video. I have one question. I have this device and I'm seeing a crack with small bump below the crack, just half an inch below the camera module. Is this a fauly battery or motherboard issue? Also what can be the probable cuase? Thanks!
I wasn't able to find a replacement screen for a client, not even on Xiaomi official support stores, so availability is deffinitely bad right now (may very well be good in a few months)
not too sure honestly. There are many different types and kinds. Some last longer than others but again the length can also depend on how often your device is used or to what extent its used.
@@kamwardmama-o2424 For that time you'll have to replace the battery once or twice. It's a good idea to replace the thermal paste also. Btw, what phones were you using that lasted that long?
@@bgbore96 samsungs mostly, my mi10t and mi 11 were literal garbage both have deadboots and have to replace the motherboard , after those 2 phone got repaired , i sold it right away, then got realme gt neo 2. since it has sd 870 very stable in long gaming sessions unlike the 888 and 8th gen 1.
whoa! no thermal paste between cooper and graphite film from the back. i wonder adding more thermal paste on front and back can improve thermal management
I don't think it would make too much of a difference for the back, since mainly the thermal paste will come into play for transferring the heat to and through the frame not so much the copper tape and graphite film on the back.
Brother one question... How much quantity of thermal paste should I buy to apply on Poco F1 phone. Also if some paste is left over, can I apply it over camera and battery?
Not sure how much, usually they sell them in standard amounts which is more than enough for any application. However I wouldn't apply thermal paste to areas that it doesn't need to be like the battery and camera. Depending on each thermal paste compound, some are more conductive than others and if they leak into areas that you don't want them to be, they can short the phone or damage components.
Hello, I'd like to inquire, if bottom micro has some kind of protection or may be it is installed 90° towards the bottom edge? There is a point that firstly i inserted a simcard but then i needed another one to be inserted, and occasionally put the needle into the microphone's hole. I barely touched it and didn't push it further as i quickly understood it was the wrong one. However I'm a bit anxious of having smth damaged. Overall, i checked wether the micro works okay, and yeah, it does. But who knows, may be it can cause some problems with water/dustproof condition
Can you show where the 2 test points are located on the Poco X4 GT ? My phone is constantly rebooting into tvpr recovery and cannot be booted into fastboot ! I want to try to flash it in edl mode .
I have this phone damaged by sea water corrosion. I have removed the motherboard and I would like to know if it is possible to extract the data from the ROM memory. Can anyone give me information about this? And does anyone know what chip is in the ROM? Thank you so much.
There is a high chance the ROM would be damaged from corrosion as well rendering it useless, but even if it was good, you would need to find a specialty shop that can de solder and remove the ROM from the board and re solder it to another board. It wouldn't be cheap if even doable.
Hi,i just want to ask if the motherboard is weak? the main issue of poco is deadboot im afraid that this phone is going to deadboot after a year,i just want answer if the motherboard is prone to deadboot or not

Do you think this device can easily survive a humidity in the bathroom if you use it everyday? Since it has a rubber gaskets, I'm waiting for your comment
Ohhhhh the phone has graphite to transfer heat away from the chip... I was so scared when I played codm it just became so fricking hot, I thought the phone will explode bruh
lol no it won't explode, if it overheats it would probably notify you and it would either shut the device off or pause the activity until the phone cools down. But generally most phones will heat up since heat is being exhausted from inside out to cool off the components. :)
i've been waiting this. thanks

Could you accidentally damage the microphone next to the USB input if you poke it with a sim tray tool?

How long do thermal paste last in phones before replacing it ? I have realme gt neo 2.
not too sure honestly. There are many different types and kinds. Some last longer than others but again the length can also depend on how often your device is used or to what extent its used.
The thermal paste most definitely will outlast the phone's life span. On the computers it lasts for several years, 4-5 and more.

The Back is not good for cooling since it is made from plastic. As with many other phones the Display is the main heatsink.

It will help
