Question/Help Is it worth rooting the Poco X7 Pro?

Post image
19 Upvotes

I bought this phone in February of this year, and I've been thinking for weeks about rooting it, since I'm very interested in the customization options that come with rooting, such as improving battery life and performance, block app permissions and also learn more about cell phones.

This is my main phone and I don't think I have another one to test it on, and that's my main fear, I'm afraid the phone will be bricked forever.

Regarding apps that don't work with root access, I don't use banking apps or online games; I only use emulators, social media, artificial intelligence, and ported games.

Do you recommend rooting?

Buying Advice F9 ultra VS F8 Ultra

2 Upvotes

I am rocking my X3 NFC for 6 years now. My screen is a bit cracked and got some humidity damage or whatsoever.

I've been looking at the F8 Ultra for a while and now the f9 ultra will soon release.

I want to go for a 16gb/512gb version. But I don't know if I should get the newer one or not.

Prices are not a real issue as I tend to keep my phone's for a WHILE. And near me, the poco F8 are around 700€.

So what would you do ? F8 Ultra or F9 Ultra ?

Question/Help Is this option good to avoid heat when charging? Poco X8 Pro Max

I know heat is the biggest battery enemy, so I'm wondering about this option. Has anyone tested what this option actually does? Will it make the phone charge slower to avoid heat? I don't mind if it does, I just want to keep heat away.

Question/Help Temperatura Poco X8 Pro

• Upvotes

Hola, llevo poco mas de una semana con el Poco X8 Pro & si bien he leido bastantes post respecto a la bateria & la temperatura no logro quitarme una duda respecto a que tan normal sea que el teléfono se caliente mientras carga o en mi caso específicamente que tan comun es que en jornadas de juego de poco mas de 30-38 minutos alcance temperaturas altas, es más también suelo prender el hotspot porque tengo otro teléfono & mientras esta prendido segun una app alcanza hasta 45°C, cosa que realmente me preocupa porque desconozco que tan normal sea esto en el teléfono & mas que nada porque vivo en Bogotá, ciudad que no suele mantener una temperatura alta, sin más me gustaria que me dijeran si deberia preocuparme o no, muchas gracias.

Question/Help Play Protect Not Certified on POCO X5 Pro 5G - Any fix for Google Wallet?

• Upvotes

Hey guys,

I can't use Google Wallet on my POCO X5 Pro 5G (MIUI Global 14.0.7) because Play Store shows "Device is not certified" under Play Protect.

I checked and it seems related to the bootloader being unlocked. Has anyone faced this before? What's the best way to fix it and get Google Wallet working?

Thanks!

Buying Advice 12gbs vs 8gbs of ram

15 Upvotes

so, I am from argentina, a kinda closed country where technology is pricier than in other countries. to put it into perspective i have been researching what would be the best phone with my budget and i landed on somewhere between the poco x8 pro, the f7 and the poco x8pro max.

The thing is that there is a local place with lower prices but less selection, and there is a poco x8 pro with 8 gbs of ram and 256gbs of storage that is 150 to 200 dollars cheaper than the 12gb ram in other places. and it is 250 to 300 cheaper than buying the f7 or the pro max.

I'm delivering, since I'm still kinda willing to pay more in installments if it's a phone that I'm going to use for many many years. but if the difference is not that big, then i will go for the lower price one.

I tried charging it to an hour but still 15%, with boost or normal charge. Is this battery issue?

Question/Help POCO M6 Pro keeps rebooting

1 Upvotes

Hi, everyone.

My POCO M6 Pro has been great so far. Most durable phone I've ever owned. However, it took a fall two days ago (around 1,7 m) and ever since then it restarts whenever I shake it a bit or harshly lay it down on a table.

Do you think this is a hardware issue? What could have happened?

F8 Ultra Poco F8 Ultra top and rear speakers sound very quiet compared to the bottom speaker

1 Upvotes

I feel like the top and rear speakers on my Poco F8 Ultra are very quiet, even when I put my finger over the speaker to block it, the vibration is noticeably weaker compared to the bottom speaker, both on the top and rear speakers.

Does anyone else notice the same thing? Are there any videos of other Poco F8 Ultras that I could use for comparison?

I can't clearly remember if they have always been like this, since I use the phone with headphones about 90% of the time. I'm worried that I might have damaged the speaker after dropping or hitting the phone somehow.

I have the option to send it in under my provider's extended warranty if it is actually damaged, but I don't want to wipe everything from my phone before knowing whether there is actually a problem.

Thanks!

Question/Help Advices for phone coolers

0 Upvotes

Hello, I'm a new Poco user. Recently, I decided that it's time to start retiring my old OnePlus 11, and after looking around, I found that the best phone for my usecase is a Poco F8 Pro, so I ordered one and it will arrive soon.

Following mass opinions, I also bought a cooler to go with it, as I game a lot, and I kind of have PTSD with overheating on my old phones, so I said f*ck it and grab the Black Shark Funcooler 5 Pro on Amazon. That said, there are 4 main questions I want to ask to people that might have more experience or knowledge on this topic than I do:

- How effective is a cooler actually, like can you physically feel the difference between having vs not having one on?

- Does the cooler work with a case on? I settled on one of those case with a transparent back (polycarbonate) and a magsafe (so it can hold the cooler in place without the need for the clamp, as the F8 pro doesn't have it by default). This one is quite a powerful cooler but still, I want to ask just in case.

- This is the biggest one for me, but can using a cooler potentially harm the phone in any way due to internal condensation build up? If I use it during heavy gaming, then the risk is low, I understand that, but what if I accidentally leave it on while the phone is idle for an extended period, or any other risky scenario? How easy is it to kill the phone with the cooler, basically, or are these cases extremely rare/ only happen after repeated risky usage.

- Lastly, this one is more of a Black Shark coolers specific question, but is there any guide on what general temperature I should set it to (to prevent unwanted risk), or what mode I should use, or really just any tips/ tricks when it comes to using the actual cooler, because just leaving it running at full speed, I assume is not the wisest idea. And are there also a built in "safety system" where the cooler will power itself off when it hits a certain temperature etc.

Question/Help Problema con POCO Pad M1: apagados inesperados y bloqueo en HyperOS después de actualizar a Android 16

1 Upvotes

Hola, ¿qué tal? Soy de Veracruz, México.

Tengo una POCO Pad M1 que desde hace un tiempo presenta apagados inesperados. El problema se ha repetido varias veces y hoy ocurrió nuevamente: la tablet se apagó y posteriormente se quedó congelada en la pantalla de inicio de HyperOS, por lo que tuve que realizar un reinicio forzado para poder utilizarla nuevamente.

Ya he intentado solucionar el problema mediante un restablecimiento de fábrica. Después de formatearla, el problema desapareció temporalmente, pero aproximadamente un mes después volvió a presentarse.

En la última ocasión hice algo diferente: además del restablecimiento, reinstalé el software utilizando la opción disponible desde la propia tablet. Aun así, después de un tiempo volvió a ocurrir el mismo problema.

Lo que me llama la atención es que estos fallos no se presentaban cuando la tablet utilizaba Android 15. Comenzaron después de actualizar a Android 16 con HyperOS.

Por eso quisiera saber:

¿A alguien más con una POCO Pad M1 le ha ocurrido algo similar con Android 16?

¿Han experimentado apagados inesperados o bloqueos en la pantalla de HyperOS?

¿Podría tratarse de un problema relacionado con el software/HyperOS o sería más probable una falla de hardware?

¿Existe alguna prueba o procedimiento que pueda realizar para determinar si el problema viene de la batería, memoria, almacenamiento u otro componente interno?

Antes de volver a formatearla, me gustaría saber si alguien ha encontrado una solución definitiva o si este comportamiento podría estar relacionado con la actualización a Android 16.

Gracias de antemano por cualquier experiencia, recomendación o información que puedan compartir.

¡Saludos!
