Hi, I am thinking to buy x3 Pro, but at first i want to know if all problems are already fixed.
I read a lot of comments about problems, but most of these comments are 3+ months old, so...
1) under load it gets very hot. Throttling...
Just by running Antutu benchmark few times, you see how score drops over 100K.
2) Touch issues
3) lags in games, Laggy UI, delay when scrolling
4) fast battery drain
5) network Issues, unstable data connection
6) unexpected shutdowns, screen freezes
7) back panel vibration when audio is playing
There are more, but these are most common.
I hope most of these problems come from their "amazing" MiUI, and can be fixed.
I can only confirm point 7 but it's not so noticable unless you are banging music at high volume.
No heat issues but then i'm not running Antutu over and over. No touch issues here but some people mentioned it. Laggy UI? First time hearing this lmao. It's butter smooth even on MIUI. I get 3 days of battery life with 10h SoT on average with 120Hz, i dont think it's bad.. plus i'm using navigation (GPS) and camera quite abit, you can probably get more than that easily. Never had any network or random shutdown issues (almost 20 days uptime, since last update of ArrowOS) probably some people with magisk / mods reported it.

I would agree, although I'm not going so good SoT (but since I'm a light user I still get very good battery life).
Never forget that people report issues, not good experiences. If you look at each indvividual grievance, you'll never buy any phone anyway
"i'm not running Antutu over and over"
It's just one of ways to put your phone under load and immediately see/compare results.
Many smartphone reviewers do this test to see if phone will throttle.
Check this video:
I found video where we can see x3 pro from inside.
On the left is x3 NFC and on the right x3 Pro.
Very interesting decision for x3 pro.
There is copper tape, instead of metallic plate.
Plus, you see that thermal paste is only on memory (3x pro).
If they don't use paste and there is not enough pressure then heat will not be dissipated by pipe.
And here you can see how much they use thermal paste between tape and pipe.
3 small lines on CPU and a bit for memory.
Just look how much more contact surface is on x3 NFC.
Now i understand why x3 pro is so hot.
If your x3 pro is not hot, then you are lucky (there is enough pressure/paste).
If you are not lucky, then idk. It's faulty phone.
1. Yes, the phone gets really hot, but that is only while gaming, especially when on mobile data. I just bought a cheap cooler and everything is fine
2. I had problems on AncientOS only, now on Crdroid i dont have it
3. Games dont lag, ofc u cant play Genshin Impact maxed out, but overall the gaming experience is smooth. On Crdroid i have no problems with scrolling, but i also use Samsung Browser and Relay for Reddit, Chrome and Reddit app were laggy even on custom roms
4. Battery drain is a problem of MIUI, on custom roms i get 8-10h of screen time from 100-20%, but i feel like i should get more than 2-3h of gaming
5. & 6. No problems
7. Yes, the back of the phone vibrates while listening at max volume, which is to be expected with how loud the speakers are and i dont see how this is a problem. Did the people who complain about this ever hold a speaker? Even overhead headphones vibrate while listening at high volume.

wait, only 2-3 hours of gaming and battery is empty?
"Yes, the phone gets really hot, but that is only while gaming"
I think we all will agree that it shouldn't be like this. Either Chipset is hotter than they expected and cooling solution used in older models can't handle it. In this case they had to slightly undervolt/downclock. Or they have huge % of faulty phones (cooling problem) and they simply close eyes on it.
But maybe it all goes by the plan. They know that chip will be hot, but it's fast and it's enough to get good sales.
Yes, its around that, but i mostly play CoD mobile and Wild Rift maxed out, so that might play into that.
I also agree that the cooling solution isn't that good to use this phone to the max and no update will ever fix it without a performance drop. Honestly this device would have been better suited with a SD855, the SD860 is too hot for the device, or at least the body of the phone didnt allow for a better cooling solution. But i guess they didnt want to have a 2 years old chip in a new phone, even if overall that would allow the phone to work faster for a longer period of time.

It's not normal. It's defect, same as cooling system.
Here you can see comparison with Redmi Note 10 Pro at max volume.
Being honest i really dont mind it, actually i enjoy it, the speakers feel powerful.
I feel many of the bugs described on first post and I find it a real shame what POCCO has done with this phone. Cheap phone? Yes! Powerfull? Yes! and... It works as expected? No!
On the other side, there are more than 10 different ROMs available for this phone and most of them are the same. Same bugs and same problems but with different skin.
I loved this phone but after see how it evolves, i feel like i did a bad investiment. Next time i will go for Realme.

I had some of the these issues when I was on miui and before unlocking BL. Phone gets warm during gaming which is perfectly normal and on par with other phones.
I sold my galaxy note 10+ for poco x3 pro, it was the best decision I made this year. Gaming got better with no throttling on custom rom, more fluid, better battery life, native google ui.

how many hours you can play games, or watch videos?
For example, on Realme 8 you can play pubg 6-7 hours (14%/h). On poco x3 pro, around 4 hours (23%/h) But can you squeeze 6+ gameplay hours from x3 pro on lower settings?

I haven't tested that long prolonged gameplays. My comment was against my previous phones - galaxy note 10+ and black shark 2 and it easily lasts for 2 days for my usage. But 4 hrs in 23%/h is still a good life, isn't it? don't get killed yourself playing for so long

Pointless comparison, Realme 8 SoC is about twice slower. It's like comparing if Ferrari or Volkswagen Golf will empty their fuel tanks first. Ofcourse Ferrari will but there is a reason for that. Not to mention 120 vs 60 Hz screen.

Dude turn off this "protective" mode. I am not comparing, i am asking question.
I understand, you own this phone and it's most amazing thing you ever had.
"It's like comparing if Ferrari or Volkswagen Golf"
Reality is that there are more powerful phones on smaller batteries and they live way longer then poco x3 pro. For example poco F3 with 4520 mAh. Even if x3 pro has 5160 mAh, it's battery is empty at point where F3 has more then 20%. And both phones has 120Hz screens. Only difference is that F3 has amoled display.
k3lcior, i am asking question (it's not comparison): why F3 with smaller battery lives way longer? Is it because of amoled display? Is it because of chip which is hot as hell? or?
if we compare processors:
Snapdragon 870 vs Snapdragon 860: tests and benchmarks
We put Qualcomm Snapdragon 870 against Snapdragon 860 to find out which SoC is better. See performance comparison in benchmarks and games.
nanoreview.net
we see that "Efficiency of battery consumption" is the same, so problem shouldn't be in cpu.
so, amoled display does all magic?
I'm not defensive and no it's not most amazing thing i ever had. And yes you are not comparing, but you are asking to compare no?

It does save battery when there are blacks on the screen because they are not 'powered' on AMOLED screens on that large screen it can make large difference. There are also more small details which also can make some difference for example SD card slot, Poco F3 doesn't have one and Poco X3 Pro has one which has to be powered at all times.
Not to mention GSM signal, small signal difference can easily make several % battery life difference which can be easily manipulated hence why these comparisons are idiotic.
And btw. here is less than 40 min. difference in battery life from what i see.
Edit: Also UFS 3.1 in Poco F3 is more power efficient compared to UFS 3.0 in X3 Pro.
Question was, if on poco x3 pro you can squeeze out 6+ hours of pubg gameplay (even on low quality).
Everything else was just additional info.
Why i am asking? Many poco x3 pro owners wrote that battery life is bad. I am trying to understand if problem is software based, or hardware. If software, it can be fixed, if hardware, then you have powerful phone with bad battery life. If F3 and X3 Pro are both on the same soft, then seems that problem is hardware based (IPS screen).
I saw this test and F3 has 24% of battery when x3 pro dies:

dude you are so toxic.. im out.
Actually I find your attitude toxic. You make some good points but you listen to nothing!
I could tell you that the phone is great, that your points are somehow valid but not really IRL. I'm afraid of your attack though.
Good luck with the phone.

Hello folks,
Have a spare Poco X3 Pro that I am not using as a phone, so I'd like to turn it into a gaming/retro emulation device by attaching a GameSir X2 controller.
Anyone can recommend a gaming-focused custom firmware?
My current choice is ArrowOS 12 + NGK with flight mode permanently enabled, but I imagine all the phone/communications related services are still there in the background consuming resources unnecessarily.
Is there a custom firmware that is designed to turn a phone into a pure emulation/gaming device?
Cheers
unlikely, even custom ROM devs pack Xiaomi provided firmware into their release.

yes you can do this but you need to do stuff first
use arrowos vanilla not gapps (cause gapps drain battery and performance)
set ngk kernel to performance
set background procceses to 1 in dev options so nothing is in background while you play

what version of firmware you use for this rom?
i think the best for gaming is a undervolt you want lower temps for not losing fps, im in mui becuase i byched the unloker of the bootloder i need to wait one week more. but i put the low energy profile and play two hour of a psp game in 4x with all high and sahder with not losing performance because the thermal throttling. Having a high antutu score dont help in long game secession. I guess i would experiment with the bare mininumun amount of performance to run psp 3x or 4x and leave there and yea put only one process in the background helps.
Got myself a realme gt neo 2 a few days back and got automatically updated to A09. My info says : RMX3370TW_11_A.09 which is weird as i bought the phone in Thailand (TH).
There is no Region option in the Language settings on my rom for some reason.
I have been trying to find the update to Realui 3.0 android 12 with a lot of VPN but no luck sofar
Anyone an idea how to get the update or is it maybe not released yet in this region ?
Thanks
<Moderator Edit>: English translation added to the top.
Yes, I got realme ui 3.0 v.c.02.

Is there idle drain in a09? Iirc that is the latest version for everyone while rui 3.0 is being rolled out.
No problems at all with idle drain or anything else in a09. Very stable

mine is on RMX3370_11_A.09 and for me, the idle drain is present. Losing 2% every hour is a lot.
I think it will be a while for a.09 user to be updated to rui 3. I've got the same version but I change my rom to indian a.07, register for trial version c.03 and from then, got official c.04 android 12 update. So far its been great. The battery is okay. After updating, I recommend to clear data or factory reset and give it some time to adjust to your usage and update the system in background. It only consume battery for couple of days and got back to normal. Don't worry about it.

You need to let the phone charge to 100% and just leave it charged for 3 hours in order to let the phone optimize it after every update. I just found out about this recently.
My only issue with a.09 is for some weird reason realme underclocked the cpu. So there is performance hiccup especially if you play games like genshin.

hmm does the 100% chargee state is in powered on / off position?
Your 2nd point is valid though. I forgot exactly how Pcore and Ecore frequency range when battery temps reach 45-46C playing genshin, monitored via cpufloat app.
Funny thing is if you multitask genshin and then opening antutu benchmark, the cpu frequency went all the way to the max. When idle, this improve genshin impact fps by like 5-10 fps in cities like Liyue. As soon as you focus to the game however, the cpu then throttle back. For me, this is the same as cheating lol.

Powered on. Afterwards I left it with wifi on untouched while I sleep. Probably up to 8 hours.
Yea this is kinda cheating. My guess is realme get bombarded with complaint by indian user not getting a lot of SoT when playing BGMI, so they release this update unannounced to underclock cpu hence giving you the illusion you have a better SoT while playing games.
The reality is you're using half of what sd870 have to offer. Pretty stupid of realme if my assumption is correct, since gaming for mobile realistically on heavy games you should only expect up to 4 hours max. Honestly idk why realme is doing this. Even on rui 3.0 it os underclock.

allright, i usually unplug the phone when battery % reach 82. You know, the more you actually charge to 100%, the less charge cycle you got during the battery lifetime. However i will try your suggestion, see if it will improve the idle drain. If it's not, then i assume the idle drain is always present and will have to wait until the Android 12 arrive. If android 12 does not solve this issue, i guess i have to live with it. I remember owning a Poco F1 and that phone idle drain is like 2% per 8 hours! Which is a total contrary to 2% per hour lmao.
Realme did put some sort of limit on the cpu side, i think, especially in Genshin. You can let the phone be cooled by active cooler like blackshark fun cooler 2. You open the battery app and it reads like 22 C. You turn on the so called "GT Mode" and run Genshin Impact. And the performance figure? Well it performed more or less the same when the device run without the cooler. And even if you use the cooler, and lower the graphic settings to the lowest, it wont get any better since it was cpu limited. (at least, this is my experience while monitoring things)

Yep pretty much the same thing for me. It was actually fine on a.07, but a.09 is when I noticed the underclock. Btw I've just received rui 3.0, updating it now and I'll see how it goes. Will update on performance etc.
Hello. An input to OP from a Swedish user.
I got my phone 1 week ago and even though version A.09 (Android 11) and UI 3.0 (Android 12) is released and available in my region, the phone would not update, or even find any updates. I checked the IMEI via Realme EU site and the IMEI and region checks out correct as EU version.
I found a tip on a Swedish site, and following that, I am now happy with my phone running Realme UI 3.0/Android 12. Here is what I did - please note that at least this worked for my Swedish EU phone and I am not sure if it works in general:
Downloaded and installed a VPN apk from Google Play store (not sure if I am allowed to name any specific)
Established connection to France via VPN
Checked for firmware - the phone immediately found the A.09.
Turned off VPN and downloaded and installed the update. I found out that it was enough to have the VPN connection active while searching for FW - the update could then be downloaded without VPN.
Once A.09 was installed correctly I once again activated the France VPN connection and searched for new FW - immediately the phone found the Realme UI 3.0/Android 12. Followed the same procedure as 4) and the phone is now running the correct region version of Realme UI 3.0.
BTW - I factory reset after the UI 3.0 installation - very fluid experience so far.
Hope this is helpful to EU users who haven't got UI 3.0. Good luck

I am sorry that I have to post a Redmi Note 11 (spes) issue here, but hear me out since this issue might be present in Redmi note 11 pro+ as well.
Coming to the issue on Redmi note 11(spes), the CPU throttles to half of peak frequency (1.1Ghz vs 2.4Ghz) after taking a phone call (Normal call or whatsapp call sometimes), and the CPU frequency doesn't seem to come back to peak frequency irrespective of CPU load. This has been very frustrating because the phone cannot really handle all the load with that 1.1Ghz frequency. All the jitters, weirdly low Benchmark scores(GB: 178 vs 380) on this phone are due the same issue.
I have even made a video on the same.
My humble request to Pro+ users is to check for this issue on your device and confirm the behaviour here. If this issue doesn't exist in your device, consider yourself lucky.
In my Region, access to MI community has been disabled, so we have no way to escalate the issue to Xiaomi.
What we have to do
To fix this.
easy , flash thermald module
Can confirm not an issue on Redmi Note 11 Pro Plus 5g (peux)

Hi there I know this might be a rom specific issue but I've faced the same problem on different roms (so far I've tried Pixel Experience Plus and Evolution X)
My phone supports 67W fast charging and I have 67W charger (Official one from Xiaomi) and it used to work great on Miui roms but then I switched to AOSP roms and the charging speed is very very slow...
The highest being not more than 3000 mA
and the lowest which is mostly the case being under 1000
I am rooted with magisk so if there is anything I could do to boost the charging speed even by a little bit would be great as right now it takes more than 2 hours to charge my device... (5000 Mah battery)
compared to the 45 min full charge on Miui
Even if there is no way to get as fast speed as Miui if I could get a little bit boost somehow it would be great
p.s I've already lost hope been trying different stuff for about a week and nothing works so it's okay if there is no solution

Hi, thanks for replying
My device model number is: 2201116PI
Device Name: Poco X4 Pro 5G (Veux)
I have tried Miui Eu on this device and it has worked great however when switching to custom roms based on AOSP like Evolution X, Descendant OS (this is my primary rom I've been using it for a while now) and Pixel Experience Plus
some additional info below
Charger: Mi Sonic 3.0 67w Fast Charger
Battery temperature: usually never goes above 40°c so shouldn't be a temperature thing
got this device just a month ago so I expect the battery itself to not be a problem...

I didn't ask for the name of the ROM/ROMs, I was asking which specific ROM/ROMs you are using, as in, name of the ROM/ROMs and the android version. There could be many different AOSP Evolution X ROMs for your device and they could all be different, therefore, saying "Evolution X" tells me the name of the ROM but doesn't tell me which Evolution X ROM your are referring to.
The kernel built in the ROM might not support fast charge or the ROMs could be poorly optimized or Google Play Services could be causing excess battery drain(this is a known issue for some ROMs).
Have you tried posting in the threads where you got your ROMs to see if there is something that the developer/developers need to fix in the ROM/ROMs?

Sorry for that, i am using Descendant OS based on Android 12.1
Kernel: 5.4.134-perf
this is actually the kernel used in Miui roms for the device and it is being used in custom roms too since Xiaomi did not release kernel sources for the device as of yet, it's even more surprising due to this since this kernel should support fast charging
I did ask in the thread for the rom and nobody else supposedly faced the same issue
Infact about a day ago it was fine charging at 3000 mA but just today it became like this
Thankfully by using a magisk module i found in a totally different thread increases the charging speed back to 3000 mA which is around 30w charging I assume, it's not the best but it's better than what was going on
The module:
(posting this just in case, you don't need to download/use it or anything)

Boot into TWRP and select Wipe, then select advanced wipes then select the cache partition and the dalvik cache partition but do not select any other partitions, then swipe the slider to wipe, then reboot and see if the issue persists.

That seems to have increased the charging speed by a bit but i face a different problem now
The battery icon in the status bar does not display accurate battery percentage it's either always stuck at 100 or absolutely 0
Though when I go to settings to check battery it shows the accurate percentage
weird.
Edit: hey looks like i became a senior member, kind of ashamed to ask for help in minor things like this sorry...

Try disabling the fast charge module in Magisk then boot back into TWRP and wipe the caches again like I described above and reboot.

Don't exactly know how this worked but messing with the notification format settings of the rom fixed it, thanks though because of you my phone can fast charge again

If it happens again, it is more than likely to be a cache issue again, its a common thing in android. That is why periodically closing all apps and rebooting is suggested, occasionally wiping cache is also helpful.
