Just got my Mi fold 2 and I like it.
But the problem I have is that Google store won't re-install my last backup from my Fold 3.
Which was today. I have waiting a an hour and nothing.
Also. I got a version of chrome to install.
But the phone won't let it update. I did install webview to see if that would help, but no.
Any tips?
Thanks
It's sorted now.
I had to reset the phone.
Now try to fix the galaxy watch 4 problem.

Lets put it this way.
I am selling my fold 3.
The software updates will be slower.
You have to de-bloat the phone.
But I love the bigger front and main screen.

I'm hard of hearing. So I know nothing about the sound.
And I haven't used the camera . Maybe this video will help you.

Compared to the Fold 4 - the speakers are about the same quality. I would say maximum volume on the Xiaomi is weaker (so much so that I'm using an equaliser profile to boost the volume). Compared to any other flagship smartphone - the speakers on these foldables is laughable in terms of quality (but that's what you get when trying to fit speakers in such a small space.
Camerawise, again compared to Fold 4 I would say its on par, maybe a slight advantage to Fold 4. Compared to a normal flagship, lowlight and stabilisation definitely suffers; however I would say its on par in decent/ well lit areas.

I had bought this phone a month back. Noticed a few problems, so returned it. Thinking about buying again. Have the following problems been fixed with the nougat 7.0 ? :
1. Shaky gyroscope. Always shaking in VR
2. Low speaker volume
3. Bad sound quality through Bluetooth speakers ( I didn't get to the check the sound quality through headphones, please tell about that too)
4. Veering of in motion games to one side.
Thank you.

Maybe the device was at fault, but I haven't faced any of that while I was on emui 4.1.

I only got the shaky gyroscope :3
I see thanks. Yes the last problem was a fault sure. I thought the first three were universal since I saw those in reviews. I can't check it again, since I returned it. But shaky gyroscope was certain. N audio quality too. As I compared it with my SGSA. But it also had Viper4Android, so I guess it must be that. Was just thinking I should check if these were solved. But you guys don't have any so I guest it must be so.

Then try the 4gb ram version maybe that one dont have the shaky gyro. Its not that much a bother to me cause im not using it.
i have 4gb variant. & i have no prob at all.. haven't checked gyro as i don't use it.. !!
& for sound output i wanna say.. many ppl were complaining & created a hype abt low sound output.. & frkly i was abt to cancel the idea of purchasing the device for this reason only but then 1 day i tested my frnds honor 6x. it was like normal sound output it's just tht it's not extra ordinary.. totally suficient & for earphone i use boat 225 & output is amazing. surely satisfiable !!! Best value for money for 15k (4gb - 64gb variant recommended )

I see. Well, That sounds good. But can you once check the gyro. U just need to download google cardboard app. Once the vr loads, it'll be a fox scenario, I guess. Just place it on the table n check if its still shaking? I'm thinking thinking of buying it again. Waiting, hoping there might be a discount soon. Thanks

I just tried that for you and it is not shaky. I have the 3gb version L21
I got the phone. Accelerometer and sound are fine. Gyroscope is a little shaky. Not as much as before. But in the clash royale game, colours are awfully high contrast. Only in that. I checked Werewolf tycoon game. In that it seemed normal.

What is the software you have on the phone? Maybe need to update
I agree to your concern about the bluetooth sound quality. It's unbearable I was pairing with my bose soundlink mini 2 but the sound was awful. REDMI 1S (much cheaper device) gives out more decent sound than this device. I hope they fixed it before releasing the stable EMUI 5.0.
64GB
4GB RAM
I have the 4GB variant with EMUI 4.1 (Marshmallow) and can relate to the issues 1 and 2. Because of the shaky gyro, I replaced the phone thinking it might be a hardware issue. But the new device also had the same problem. Had talked to the customer care and service centre lot of times regarding this. Finally, they're asking for a recorded video that explains this issue. I just left it when I found that this device doesn't have a hardware gyroscope. Its an emulation of accelerometer and magnetometer. So VR apps are not gonna work properly for you, no matter how much they optimize the emulation algorithm.
The sound output from speakers are low. Even the headphone jack output is bad. Never tried a bluetooth headset though.
The veering to one side when playing games might be because of calibration problems because most games work fine for me. Even the ones using gyroscope I suppose.
Anyone owning s10e. Do you have such thing that camera diaphragm is being closed and reopened on every camera mode switch? In quiet room it sounds at least strange.
Is the sound troubling to you? Is it affecting image quality?
My s8 and s9 did it, so it seems like its normal.

Only sound. First time having Samsung + a phone with OIS and variable diaphragm. Thought it's a hardware issue.
+ I've already submitted a but about camera closing and reopening diaphragm on photo mode switch. It's definitely looks like a bug. No need to close it and reopen. But I guess one UI will be bugged for a while same as s10e line will be somewhat bugged and patched a lot.

Just received my S10+ today, so I have the same confusion as OP since it's my first Samsung phone. Does the diaphragm change even for switching from photo to video? This seems quite unnecessary given no change in light condition and can eventually cause wear and tear.
The only time it didn't change was when I switched from Slow Motion to Super Slow-Mo.
Hey I have the same 'problem' on my S10+ and wondering if it's normal or an issue... It does a click sounds when changing camera modes
If it's not affecting the quality of my videos or photos I wouldn't worry about it. Longevity of the mechanics of the part is something to keep in mind but I can't see it as something that would wear out before the warranty expires.
Update: I went to test the devices at my nearby retail stores.
All of the S10 devices have the same clicking sounds. The Note 9 was silent, while the S9 was barely audible.
I guess they just didn't dampen the sound as much or something to that effect.

OH, so you have real s10 phones in your local stores? Because in Ukraine official Samsung store guys actually told me that presented devices look like original BUT inside CPU is different, camera is somewhat the same (WTF does it mean O_O) and the only thing that matches real devices there is screen. So I couldn't actually reproduce that noise at store and the only thing that calmed me down was that other owners of S10 confirmed ticking noise.
Its normal. My P20 Pro rattles until I open the camera app, then the OIS kicks in and holds the lens still. Similar sort of thing, the phone isn't going to hold the camera active when not in use, wastes power.
Pubg lag
Guys does pubg stutters on ur s10.
Similar sound was experienced on my s7. S10 does the plus many other phones like nokia 1020 used to make similar noise. I don't think its a problem.

Yes its the variable aperture switching between f 1.5 and 2.2. Its definitely louder on the S10. I have the S10+ and S10e and on both it's quite noticeable when opening the camera and switching modes. Does this on the google pixel camera port as well.
Guys this is NORMAL. The Galaxy S9+ did this, too, with its dual aperture.
It changes when opening some apps -- if it isn't supposed to always do it that often then Samsung can adjust it with a software update.
Ever used a real camera? They are much louder than this when changing.
My s9+ did not do this unless it switched aperture. Never when I opened the camera. My s10e does it every time camera is opened like it switches apertures every time.

Hello. I got my note 20 ultra exynos one. Anyone has problems with the battery lasting too less? And one more question: When i shoot videos on my instagram app camera its low quality and lagy, on Snapchat its better or messenger. And i dont have instagram camera mode on stock neither so is there anything we can do?

The battery life is pretty terrible. Certainly more complaining about it rather than happy.
I've given up and gone back to my Note 8.

No, not at all. It's the best phone out there right now. Nearly indestructible and very premium quality. The camera is amazing and it feels fast as lighting. People here of all places should know it takes a week of normal use to let the battery settle and get adjusted. My response was because of the dramatic response to the phone that's making me run from this forum. I mean really...going back to the 8? Jesus get a grip.
I dont know what to say. Instagram camera is broken, battery really little less then note 9 after a week

Don’t blame the crappy Android unoptimised version of Instagram on the Note 20U. If you have ever used Instagram on an iPhone versus an Android phone, the difference is night and day. I speak from personal ownership experience.
Do a quick GG search. You’ll see how many videos, articles, Reddit posts etc written on this.
Take a look at Flossy Carter’s videos on YT. That bloke does the realest reviews of any major phones on the market right now.
I want to trade my S10+ for OP 7 Pro.
The following reasons why I want to switch to Oneplus 7 pro are:
1. QHD 6.67" amoled all screen, vibrant big and bright all screen. Nearly as vibrant as Samsung's screen.
2. Camera best Oneplus have produced. Images sharp with good detail, really impressed. Obviously not as good as Samsung's but for me good enough. I'm not a massive picture taker or selfies person. 4k 60fps super stable.
3. Loud dual speakers, again this is top notch. Not as full or rich sound as S10 plus but it's darn close. Another surprise.
4. Triple SSS performance (coin that one) - Super smooth speedy performance. No strutting or freezing experienced as of yet.
5. Near stock firmware with a few Oneplus touches. Love it better then stock android a actually
6. Quick updates to latest Android software.
7. Pop up camera prefer it over the hole in the screen, use it unlock phone as it's a cool feature.
8. That damn 90Hz refresh rate, boy ow boy is it smooth. This has completely spoilt me, it's fluid.
9. Snapdragon cpu which is better than samsung's exynos.
Do you guys think is worth the switch or i should stick with S10?
Do it
I did this exact thing a year ago and am still happy with my decision
Swapped it six months back and am happy with the phone at the moment. Screen is good. Software is snappy. Camera is a tad bad as compared to s10 plus but you can use gcam mod to compensate for that.
Battery is also better with custom kernel.

Secondly miss my water and dust resistance. Used to wash my phone after my covid duty, haha.
The last thing is the headphone jack.

Sounds like you have your mind made up lol. I wouldn't because it's basically a side-step instead of an upgrade.

it seems like youve made your decision which is the right one .. go for it you wont regret it ... for camera if you install gcam i think it's as good (or even better) than s10 .. also you get used to its weight .. i'm using 7p for about a year and i'm super satisfied .. i just wish it had better battery .. (its decent but
i'd like it to be more than decent ) also i wish i would have chose 8gb or 12gb ram variant i'm using 6gb and ram management is not as good.. other than than i dont think i'm upgrading at least for a good 3 years to come
came from s10+ as well before getting the op7p. the most annoying thing I had with the s10+ was it heats like you can cook something especially if mobile data is used. best decision ever.
Hey, currently i'm thinking to buy 12s ultra. But i read about some bugs are there like notifications, caller id, edge detection and etc.
I'd like to know as of you guys using this phone for months, Are the problems are solved? Are there any bugs still persist?
For users that reports having bugs for notifications are really the one that doesnt really knows how to set up a Xiaomi phone. I have been using a week already and I get all my notifications right away.

With eu ROM, it's been an excellent phone. No big complaints here.
I would like to thank you all, I'm planning this phone to buy. But there was some questions and now it is almost solved. Because when I buy a new smartphone I use it about 2-3 years. So that's why I wanted to be sure.

Can't send 1080p (30p/60p) videos via whatsapp, the videos will stutter but it's smooth in the video player and gallery.
this is on latest stable EU Rom, seems to be a known issue with chinese roms / phones.

I was using a Vivo nex 3s for the pass 2 years, which served me very good but the camera department and the lackluster mono speaker just a nono for a flagships anymore. The 12s ultra I got from aliexpress with global rom, which i think is there inside China only hacked rom and the first thing I did was to flash EU firmware and set it up as a regular global xiaomi phone. To me the screen refresh rate, camera , sound and voice is a major step up from what I was using. For a flagship around 1k, this is a wonderful best buy that I won't probably run into someone with the same phone around my area.

Accessibility services sometimes "stop working" and need to be restarted, that's about the only issue I've run into.
I'm just a casual photo taker, however so far I have found that the consistency in cameral quality was better with the mi ultra 11
Hi, I'm not sure if this is the correct thread for this. But I am wondering if your device's RAW file format for photos does not exceed or is normally 10Mb and below?
I normally post-process my shots and purchased this phone mainly because of its camera. However, I am blown by how low the margin I can edit the images on this device. I have an old mi10 pro, and a ROG6 device, and the RAW photos I'm getting out of those devices are above 50MB. The photos I shot out of this device are normally highly saturated even after turning of lica vivid. so my option is to post-process.
Is this something that can be resolved via software update or is this a hardware limitation? TIA!
So let me ask you one more question about camera. I have seen the dozens of video on youtube about camera. Is 12s ultra's camera really competeble with Iphone 13 or 14 series?

The iPhone gives the most natural looking, clean picture in my experience. android devices tend to go more into "beautification" hence over saturation, over exposed, etc photos. to fix this, you can shoot with raw format and then post process.
but yeah, it all depends with the person looking at the picture.
going back to my question about RAW photos with this phone . this is the first time i ever encountered a device with a very low RAW image quality. the standard photos is more clear, you can basically do nothing with its raw image.
I'm using thor 13.0.1.1 rom, i just want to check with others if they are having the same issue. or will changing rom fix this?
is it just me or is there no way to turn off the alarm when the alarm clock goes off using the native miui clock app? I even set the volume buttons to dismiss the alarm but nothing. Have to reboot phone to turn off alarm
i'll just download the google clock app
