Poco F2 Pro Display to K30 Zoom Display - Xiaomi Poco F2 Pro (Redmi K30 Pro) Questions & Ans

Hey! First of all this is my first post on XDA.
I tried multiple time overclocking the Panel of the Poco F2 Pro and ended up with bad low light grey colors.
So Ive wondered if it would be possible to instead just change the Panel to the K30 Zoom one because these Phones are almost indentical.
Could please someone help me and say if its possible or remind me that this is a stupid Idea and im stupid too?
Thanks for reading!

AFAIK MIUI rom in lmi does not support OC panels or the panel from ULTRA (so you cannot achieve 120hz refresh rate even with a modded kernel).
Besides the hw compatibility (there is a big question mark on that) you must use an AOSP rom and possibly a kernel that enables this feature.

Any way for 90hz refresh mod?

Is there any possible way to install 90hz refresh mod ( present in Oneplus 7t ) on our Oneplus 7 ?
Is our OP7 supports that?
I saw some xiaomi flagships has such mods installed but why not in OP7 till now?
Any good reason?
Does it has anything to do with Fluid Amoled display?
Nonsense, it's hardware related, op7 screen only capable 60hz

you can't overclock amoled panel. though you can overclock lcd panel. i have used my poco f1 in 70hz.

Do you know how to do it? Any links or posts or topics ?
There are quite a few 60hz refresh rate phones that can use the 90hz refresh rate. Currently I have not found a way to open the 90hz refresh rate on Oneplus 7. I tried this app to turn on the 90hz refresh rate, because Oneplus 7 has no DTBO, it has not been successfully opened 90hz. But this is not due to hardware.
I request any developer to develop a mod for 90hz refresh rate for our op7 or provide a process to do so that i will test on my phone..
I'm pretty sure there's a way to increase the refresh rate.
What we'll need to find out, when a Dev actually looks into that, is how stable is it, and by how much? And will it be convenient enough (battery, durability).
I really hope that the screen is actually as good as OP7T
Any news about that?

The app has been updated, but it still does not work for OnePlus 7.
There are many factors here.
For example: Mi 9 uses an 85Hz panel underclocked to 60Hz, that's the reason why this type of mods can easily enable this feature without any side effects (Ignoring the extra energy consumption of course), I don't know how Redmi K20/Mi9T screen is, but I assume it will be something similar.
Another important thing to keep in mind: OnePlus uses command-mode to control the panel (this method precludes any external modification that is attempted over the panel controller) while Xiaomi for some strange who-knows-reason uses video-mode (If I'm not wrong, Xiaomi is the only manufacturer that uses this method in high-end devices with OLED panels), and basically this method facilitates modifications to the the different dtbo's/panel controllers.
I don't want to break anyone's hopes, but currently I don't think anyone outside Samsung has the ability to change the refresh rate of this panel, these screens were strongly designed to work this way and only in this way.

Does it worth it? (AMOLED, ROM Development...)

Hi,
I've been saving to get a Mi 9T pro for quite some time... and of course now it isn't available at a reasonable price, so my eyes are on a Poco F2 Pro (i live in Europe right now).
My only requirements would be:
mandatory:
- headphone jack (check)
- Super AMOLED without bloody hole (who would do that??) (can you confirm it is a super amoled screen like mi 9T pro and Mi 9 lite, not just amoled (like Mi 9T) please?) (check i guess)
slightly less important:
- stereo speakers (not checked, i live w/o it i guess! cause in that price range i can't find anything, specially with the 2 first requirements)
- microSD slot (ok i'll plug it more often then...)
and last but not least:
- good community regarding development, tweaks, custom roms and so on => will this one be checked one day ? What do you think ? I see sources are out but missing a lot of parts... are people gonna get some enthusiasm on that phone at one point ? (so, yeah, if somebody could tell me the future ^^ and the next lottery numbers while you're at it...)
So, well, maybe I'm too demanding, what do you guys think, and is there a way to be happy with stock MIUI (debloating?) to begin with ?
Sorry if all of that was already address, I take my chances asking my concern to the community before I buy anything as it is a big expense for me.
THANKS A LOT for your time and your help
Cheers !
I would suggest getting Mi9T pro/K20 Pro or better yet get One plus 7T pro. I have K30 Pro Zoom edition and K20 Pro.
To your points:
Both have headphone jack.
Both very nice screen. K30Pro/PocoF2 Pro has bigger screen. There are reports here that the poco F2 Pro may have yellow/green tint. Mine has perfect screen no issues
Stereo has K20Pro ... sort of, if u mod it otherwise no stereo for both phones
No SD Card slot for both.
Also both have USB 2.0 speed on USB C port. Speed is around 30 MB/s
I will bet poco F2 pro will not get development community as did K20 Pro.
I use on both phones Chinese MIUI with heavy debloatet script and magisk module. I have better experience this way than any other ROM (even miui eu)
Hesitating between the OnePlus Nord and the F2 Pro too, considering the F2 is vastly superior for less than 100 bucks more. If only I had some time to get back in the dev community... Some OmniROM on this things would be nice

OnePlus Nord seems nice, but:
slighty less processing power (still a lot)
LPDDR4X RAM vs LPDDR5 (still totally fine!!)
no cooling system
no LED (lol)
no jack
no IR (^^)
but:
maybe better screen (a bit smaller though)
probably better camera (OIS)
lighter weight (but no IP and plastic design)
so that could do it...
BUT.... has a f*** hole in the screen !
Let us know if you pick one
And may the time be with you one day to build some code
Cheers !

How do you compare the screen of K20 Pro and F2 pro ?
Same same ?
One plus 7T pro seems nice, still expensive though, and no jack -p) but good development i guess...

What? No, the f2 has better screen. Well as long as you don't care about Refresh rate. But touch sampling is better 120 Vs 180 on the f2
Camera is better on the f2 even with ois

I can not say for Poco F2 Pro/K30 Pro as I have the Zoom edition (different hardware) but the Zoom has slightly brighter screen than K20 Pro. I had for the short time Oneplus 7T pro. it had better color accuracy and 90 Hz

It will get bettter development community than K20 pro lol. Just wait for it to launch in India and you'll see official custom ROMs in just 4-5 weeks.

Because I just read that India will not get the phone at all!
Amazing phone, but MIUI with zero custom rom development is a no-go for me.
I have the poco f2 pro and owned 2 mi9t pro before as well. The phone is not bad but not great. Have it over a month now, miui 12 was a nice improvement but I see some bugs since the update. The screen sometimes go dark and take a good few seconds to recover. Happened when using chrome or various other apps. I had to even reboot at one point because it didn't recover. I know a wipe could resolve the issue just too lazy to do it and I only see the above bug a few times.
Comparing to the mi9t pro it has much nicer features such as the harptic feedback is nicer. Camera and touch response is also better, not even mention the longer battery life. However due to the size and weight I did find the mi9t pro much more usable. I have small hand and for me does require 2 hands to operate cause I cannot reach much with one hand.
Custom rom does exist check xiaomi.eu but its very limited compare how the mi9t pro\k20 pro was. I'm not planning to mess around with roms just wanted a device which works, this doesn't really bothers me.
Is it worth it? Hmm the market is fludded with good devices, if you want a full screen display there isn't much option available, the cut out or teardrop style is more common then anything else. The answer is subjective but owning the device I may look around and chose a different one.
Since this phone will 100% sure get Android 11 , I think most logical way forward (from dev perspective) is wait for that release before doing any custom ROM. Doing it now with current release base (its buggy too) is probably waste of time.
This is not the first phone with the same situation happened before.
I own both mi9t pro 128gb and k30 pro 256gb (zoom edition) and I can certainly says it surely an upgrade especially when you do gaming often.
Im not sure about everybody else, but in my experience, mi9t pro do stutter in games from time to time which I suspect comes from thermal throttling. On the other hand, my k30 pro did not have such issue at all. Mind you, it was both on miui 12 latest stable rom.
Oh yes, plus the added benefit of getting UFS 3.1, LPDDR5, bigger battery, IR blaster, faster charging, bigger battery, latest chipset, 5G (future-proofing), and most importantly for me, the OIS on both telephoto and main camera lens enable me to take long exposure and night shot without those blurry image. 3x telephoto lens not just better in zooming but also double as macro lens with AF! I can zoom up to 30x and have a decent moon-shot, albeit not so great but still good enough. All in all, its well worth to be considered as an upgrade.
Before i forgot, yes the screen is definitely super amoled, which comes with good factory-calibration on "Standard" or "Original" mode. P3 and sRGB mode as preset are great option to have which mi9t pro really missing.

Yup. Poco f2 pro won't launch in India. They'll launch it as K30 Pro. It is because of this Covid situation that launch has been delayed. Also Xiaomi India is trying to clear their existing stocks of K20 pro before launching K30 Pro
I am cosidering between the Google Pixel 4a (340€) vs the POCO F2 Pro (399€),
Which one do you guys think is the better choice?
wait for pixel 5 4a with 765 processor is uber trash

Now POCO F2 Pro is about 300,00€ in Italy. That is a so low price for these specs (Snapdragon 865), if there are two big lack:
1. no slot card at all and
2. no development due to the fact that the source code tree is partially hidden in order to block the development.
It seems like there's a collusion between the phone house to give a price to the possibility of development.
Actually google pixel it costs much more than the value of the money suggests for its specs.
Like "future development of the phone" must be paid by the costumers. That is my paranoia. :confuso:

Is buying POCO X3 an upgrade for a POCO F1 user?

I've been using Poco F1 for almost 2 years and now i want to change my device... So, is buying Poco X3 an upgrade or a downgrade w.r.t battery, camera, performance, touch, display
battery+
camera+
performence -
touch? bulid quality? same plastic feel
display +
Yes definately
Way better camera
More responsive and precise touch
Amazing screen
Yeah, came from Poco F1 and it is indeed an upgrade in almost every field.
Though, I would recommend that you wait until your Poco F1 get unusable or something, there hasn't been any huge changes in the industry, if you think you will get something that really offer a different experience, you won't.
What about UI? Is it lag free?I saw a review and the guy was facing lag while opening and closing apps... And is screen ghosting still an issue while scrolling or is it resolved?

The UI is lag free most of the time. What you need to remember is that the 120Hz is adaptative, so when you didn't touch your screen for a couple of seconds it goes to 60Hz, or to 30Hz when you watch a video. So if you happen to rotate your screen for exemple when it is at 30/60Hz, it feels pretty laggy.
I'd stick to the F1 untill stock ROM get's all issues solved, has some really annyoing stuff, or it gets fully functional custom ROMs
No. I switched from Poco F1 to Poco X3 and I haven't noticed huge difference except screen size and weight.
I think i will return X3 and wait another year with F1.
I would stick to F1, I only upgraded due to cracked screen and not being able to find a cheap replacement that cracks just as easily. The battery is a nice plus but I find F1 last over a day already so if you charge at night there isn't any point.
I bought the Poco F1 back in 2018 and recently sold it.
I'm using a Poco X3 NFC now and I really like the display quality, way better battery and better main rear camera.
I'm not regretting not buying the India non NFC 6000 MAh battery version because I really neded NFC in Europe, not only for payments but for other gaming related stuff.
I've disabled the adds and uninstalled the bloatware apps using some youtube tutorials.
Games using NFC? Could you pm some examples, don't wanna spam this thread
Hi there, I'm on Poco F1 since first days of 2019 and I really like the native call recording feature on Global stock ROM. Is this feature present on Poco X3 either? Thanks in advance.

I replaced cracked screen and battery in Pocophone F1 for ~30€ yesterday. Now I can get rid of Poco X3.
If the picture quality in the F1 is ok for you, I would keep it, as X3 is really great for its price, but doens't provide that much upgrade.
If you want more in everything go directly for Poco F2 Pro.

Opinions on Poco X3

Hello guys!
I've watched a couple of videos of Poco x3 and was kinda impressed by the performance and what the device has to offer. My question is if it would be a smart thing getting this device (I currently use a S10 lite) considering the cameras seem to be better on the Poco especially the front cam. I'm not a heavy gamer by any means so it's not my main focus in a phone. I want to hear you guys think and what your experience using the poco is
Regards

Arnova is about to build gcam 8 for poco x3
It will give the best picture quality
Thanks for the input guys. I'm just wondering since the 120 hz screen seems smoother than s10 lite's 60 hz screen. Also as I mentioned the camera especially the selfie-cam on poco seems better. I also like the fact that poco has IP rating and stereo speaker which the s10 lite lacks both of..
And another thing that's bothering me is the lack of development in custom roms for the s10 lite compared to poco...
Most if not all issues some people are having with the X3 isn't hardware related. Miui12 not really optimised for this phone yet and with more custom rom support i'd stick with X3. It's still the best bang for buck phone imo
Buy poco just for fun if you have the cash, I got 2 of them, just to keep a daily and mess with custom roms.
120Hz might be tempting but it's not really fixed 120 and most importantly it's an LCD display. If you decide to get the x3 just remember that from now on GREY is your new BLACK. My 2 years old HUAWEI tablet (also an IPS panel) has better contrast,viewing angles and deeper blacks.

When and where bro?
Update: I actually bought a Poco x3,and I must say it feels smoother than S10 Lite and the LCD screen is actually a very good one, so I don't notice all that much of a difference between the S10 lite and the Poco. Also the poco has a bigger community than s10 lite which is good .

Help to customize my F2 Pro

Hi all,
just bought Poco F2 pro Cyber Gray color but i want to change it little bit;
First i want to add the Mint Green battery back from the K30 Ultra,
Also maybe the green pop up camera too
next i want to add green power button instead of the red one.
I wanted to ask if i will have some problems with this??
First: Does the back cover of the k30 ultra is exactly the same for k30 pro/f2 pro??
Second: which power button (green ofc) is same from other xiaomi devices for k30 pro/f2 pro??
and third: any others problems i'd may run into??
So do you think its a good idea to make this changes?
Any other suggestions for more customization?
Thanks all!!!
They are identical....
Second .... Dont bother...its a lot of work and maybe a quality skin (d-brand) could sort you out without the hassle.
But again all is on you.....the phones are the same but have different name.
Best of luck and if you happen to change it please post pics....i would like to see it.
Take care of yourself
